* cb/leading-path-removal:
use persistent memory for rejected paths
do not overwrite files in leading path
lstat_cache: optionally return match_len
add function check_ok_to_remove()
t7607: add leading-path tests
t7607: use test-lib functions and check MERGE_HEAD
Conflicts:
t/t7607-merge-overwrite.sh
An aborted merge prints the list of rejected paths as part of the
error message. Since commit f66caaf9 (do not overwrite files in
leading path), some of those paths do not have static buffers, so
we have to keep a copy. Use string_list's to accomplish this.
This changes the order of the list to the order in which the paths
are processed. Previously, it was reversed.

In case HEAD does not point to a valid commit yet, merge is
implemented as a hard reset. This will cause untracked files to be
overwritten.
Instead, assume the empty tree for HEAD and do a regular merge. An
untracked file will cause the merge to abort and do nothing. If no
conflicting files are present, the merge will have the same effect
as a hard reset.

If the work tree contains an untracked file x, and
unpack-trees wants to checkout a path x/*, the
file x is removed unconditionally.
Instead, apply the same checks that are normally
used for untracked files, and abort if the file
cannot be removed.

Use the test_commit and test_path_is_missing
functions from the test library.
Also make sure that a merge which fails due to
pre-merge checks aborts properly and does not
leave MERGE_HEAD behind.
The "will not overwrite removed file" test is an
exception to this. It notices the untracked file
at a stage where the merge is already well under
way. Therefore we cannot abort the merge without
major restructuring. See the following thread for
more details.

test_must_fail will account for segfaults in git, so it should be used
instead of "! git"
This patch does not change any of the commands that use pipes.

When merge-recursive wanted to create a new file in the work tree (either
as the final result, or a hint for reference purposes while delete/modify
conflicts), it unconditionally overwrote an untracked file in the working
tree. Be careful not to lose whatever the user has that is not tracked.

If a file was removed in HEAD, but modified in MERGE_HEAD, recursive merge
will result in a "CONFLICT (delete/modify)". If the (now untracked) file
already exists and was not added to the index, it is overwritten with the
conflict resolution contents.
In similar situations (cf. test 2), the merge would abort with
"error: Untracked working tree 'file' would be overwritten by merge."
The same should happen in this case.
