"git pull" had various corner cases that were not well thought out
around its --rebase backend, e.g. "git pull --ff-only" did not stop
but went ahead and rebased when the history on other side is not a
descendant of our history. The series tries to fix them up.
* en/pull-conflicting-options:
pull: fix handling of multiple heads
pull: update docs & code for option compatibility with rebasing
pull: abort by default when fast-forwarding is not possible
pull: make --rebase and --no-rebase override pull.ff=only
pull: since --ff-only overrides, handle it first
pull: abort if --ff-only is given and fast-forwarding is impossible
t7601: add tests of interactions with multiple merge heads and config
t7601: test interaction of merge/rebase/fast-forward flags and options
We have for some time shown a long warning when the user does not
specify how to reconcile divergent branches with git pull. Make it an
error now.

In t6402, we're checking number of files in the index and the working
tree by piping the output of Git's command to "wc -l", thus losing the
exit status code of git.
Let's use the new helper test_stdout_line_count in order to preserve
Git's exit status code.

This trick was performed via
$ (cd t &&
sed -i -e 's/master/main/g' -e 's/MASTER/MAIN/g' \
-e 's/Master/Main/g' -- t6[4-9]*.sh)
This allows us to define `GIT_TEST_DEFAULT_INITIAL_BRANCH_NAME=main`
for those tests.

In addition to the manual adjustment to let the `linux-gcc` CI job run
the test suite with `master` and then with `main`, this patch makes sure
that GIT_TEST_DEFAULT_INITIAL_BRANCH_NAME is set in all test scripts
that currently rely on the initial branch name being `master by default.
To determine which test scripts to mark up, the first step was to
force-set the default branch name to `master` in
- all test scripts that contain the keyword `master`,
- t4211, which expects `t/t4211/history.export` with a hard-coded ref to
initialize the default branch,
- t5560 because it sources `t/t556x_common` which uses `master`,
- t8002 and t8012 because both source `t/annotate-tests.sh` which also
uses `master`)
This trick was performed by this command:
$ sed -i '/^ *\. \.\/\(test-lib\|lib-\(bash\|cvs\|git-svn\)\|gitweb-lib\)\.sh$/i\
GIT_TEST_DEFAULT_INITIAL_BRANCH_NAME=master\
export GIT_TEST_DEFAULT_INITIAL_BRANCH_NAME\
' $(git grep -l master t/t[0-9]*.sh) \
t/t4211*.sh t/t5560*.sh t/t8002*.sh t/t8012*.sh
After that, careful, manual inspection revealed that some of the test
scripts containing the needle `master` do not actually rely on a
specific default branch name: either they mention `master` only in a
comment, or they initialize that branch specificially, or they do not
actually refer to the current default branch. Therefore, the
aforementioned modification was undone in those test scripts thusly:
$ git checkout HEAD -- \
t/t0027-auto-crlf.sh t/t0060-path-utils.sh \
t/t1011-read-tree-sparse-checkout.sh \

We excluded one set of test scripts in these commands, though: the range
of `git p4` tests. The reason? `git p4` stores the (foreign) remote
branch in the branch called `p4/master`, which is obviously not the
default branch. Manual analysis revealed that only five of these tests
actually require a specific default branch name to pass; They were
modified thusly:
$ sed -i '/^ *\. \.\/lib-git-p4\.sh$/i\
GIT_TEST_DEFAULT_INITIAL_BRANCH_NAME=master\
export GIT_TEST_DEFAULT_INITIAL_BRANCH_NAME\
' t/t980[0167]*.sh t/t9811*.sh

The ort merge strategy has some slight differences in commit
descriptions (shortened hashes), stdout vs stderr, and in conflict
messages. Also, builtin/merge.c reports usage of "ort" as "Merge made
by the 'ort' strategy" -- while it is meant as a drop in replacement for
"recursive" it is not yet treated as though it is recursive. Update the
testcases to expect different output for the different merge backends.

merge-recursive.c is built on the idea of running unpack_trees() and
then "doing minor touch-ups" to get the result. Unfortunately,
unpack_trees() was run in an update-as-it-goes mode, leading
merge-recursive.c to follow suit and end up with an immediate evaluation
and fix-it-up-as-you-go design. Some things like directory/file
conflicts are not well representable in the index data structure, and
required special extra code to handle. But then when it was discovered
that rename/delete conflicts could also be involved in directory/file
conflicts, the special directory/file conflict handling code had to be
copied to the rename/delete codepath. ...and then it had to be copied
for modify/delete, and for rename/rename(1to2) conflicts, ...and yet it
still missed some. Further, when it was discovered that there were also
file/submodule conflicts and submodule/directory conflicts, we needed to
copy the special submodule handling code to all the special cases
throughout the codebase.
And then it was discovered that our handling of directory/file conflicts
was suboptimal because it would create untracked files to store the
contents of the conflicting file, which would not be cleaned up if
someone were to run a 'git merge --abort' or 'git rebase --abort'. It
was also difficult or scary to try to add or remove the index entries
corresponding to these files given the directory/file conflict in the
index. But changing merge-recursive.c to handle these correctly was a
royal pain because there were so many sites in the code with similar but
not identical code for handling directory/file/submodule conflicts that
would all need to be updated.
I have worked hard to push all directory/file/submodule conflict
handling in merge-ort through a single codepath, and avoid creating
untracked files for storing tracked content (it does record things at
alternate paths, but makes sure they have higher-order stages in the
index).
Since updating merge-recursive is too much work and we don't want to
destabilize it, instead update the testsuite to have different
expectations for relevant directory/file/submodule conflict tests.

The tests for the merge machinery are spread over several places.
Collect them into t64xx for simplicity. Some notes:
t60[234]*.sh:
Merge tests started in t602*, overgrew bisect and remote tracking
tests in t6030, t6040, and t6041, and nearly overtook replace tests
in t6050. This made picking out relevant tests that I wanted to run
in a tighter loop slightly more annoying for years.
t303*.sh:
These started out as tests for the 'merge-recursive' toplevel command,
but did not restrict to that and had lots of overlap with the
underlying merge machinery.
t7405, t7613:
submodule-specific merge logic started out in submodule.c but was
moved to merge-recursive.c in commit 18cfc08866 ("submodule.c: move
submodule merging to merge-recursive.c", 2018-05-15). Since these
tests are about the logic found in the merge machinery, moving these
tests to be with the merge tests makes sense.
t7607, t7609:
Having tests spread all over the place makes it more likely that
additional tests related to a certain piece of logic grow in all those
other places. Much like t303*.sh, these two tests were about the
underlying merge machinery rather than outer levels.
Tests that were NOT moved:
t76[01]*.sh:
Other than the four tests mentioned above, the remaining tests in
t76[01]*.sh are related to non-recursive merge strategies, parameter
parsing, and other stuff associated with the highlevel builtin/merge.c
rather than the recursive merge machinery.
t3[45]*.sh:
The rebase testcases in t34*.sh also test the merge logic pretty
heavily; sometimes changes I make only trigger failures in the rebase
tests. The rebase tests are already nicely coupled together, though,
and I didn't want to mess that up. Similar comments apply for the
cherry-pick tests in t35*.sh.
