Rename git_config_set_or_die functions to git_config_set, leading
to the new default behavior of dying whenever a configuration
error occurs.
By now all callers that shall die on error have been transitioned

The desired default behavior for `git_config_set` is to die
whenever an error occurs. Dying is the default for a lot of
internal functions when failures occur and is in this case the
right thing to do for most callers as otherwise we might run into
inconsistent repositories without noticing.
As some code may rely on the actual return values for
`git_config_set` we still require the ability to invoke these
functions without aborting. Rename the existing `git_config_set`
functions to `git_config_set_gently` to keep them available for

broken by the rewrite to C we did at around 2.6.0 timeframe at

used to spawn the pager via the shell, accepting things like

When specifying both revisions and pathnames, we allow
"<rev> -- <pathspec>" to be spelled without the "--" as long
as it is not ambiguous. The original logic was something
like:
1. Resolve each item with get_sha1(). If successful,
we know it can be a <rev>. Verify that it _isn't_ a
filename, using verify_non_filename(), and complain of
ambiguity otherwise.
2. If get_sha1() didn't succeed, make sure that it _is_
a file, using verify_filename(). If not, complain
that it is neither a <rev> nor a <pathspec>.
Both verify_filename() and verify_non_filename() rely on
check_filename(), which definitely said "yes, this is a
file" or "no, it is not" using lstat().
Commit 28fcc0b (pathspec: avoid the need of "--" when
wildcard is used, 2015-05-02) introduced a convenience
feature: check_filename() will consider anything with
wildcard meta-characters as a possible filename, without
even checking the filesystem.
This works well for case 2. For such a wildcard, we would
previously have died and said "it is neither". Post-28fcc0b,
we assume it's a pathspec and proceed.
But it makes some instances of case 1 worse. We may have an
extended sha1 expression that contains meta-characters
(e.g., "HEAD^{/foo.*bar}"), and we now complain that it's
also a filename, due to the wildcard characters (even though
that wildcard would not match anything in the filesystem).
One solution would be to actually expand the pathname and
see if it matches anything on the filesystem. But that's
potentially expensive, and we do not have to be so rigorous
for this DWIM magic (if you want rigor, use "--").
Instead, we can just use different rules for cases 1 and 2.
When we know something is a rev, we will complain only if it
meets a much higher standard for "this is also a file";
namely that it actually exists in the filesystem. Case 2
remains the same: we use the looser "it could be a filename"
standard introduced by 28fcc0b.
We can accomplish this by pulling the wildcard logic out of
check_filename() and putting it into verify_filename(). Its
partner verify_non_filename() does not need a change, since
check_filename() goes back to implementing the "higher
standard".
Besides these two callers of check_filename(), there is one
other: git-checkout does a similar DWIM itself. It hits this
code path only after get_sha1() has returned failure, making
it case 2, which gets the special wildcard treatment.
Note that we drop the tests in t2019 in favor of a more
complete set in t6133. t2019 was not the right place for
them (it's about refname ambiguity, not dwim parsing
ambiguity), and the second test explicitly checked for the
opposite result of the case we are fixing here (which didn't
really make any sense; as shown by the test_must_fail in the
test, it would only serve to annoy people).

If we have a "--" flag, we should not be doing DWIM magic

Since b7cc53e9 (tag.c: use 'ref-filter' APIs, 2015-07-11),
git-tag has started showing tags with ambiguous names (i.e.,
when both "heads/foo" and "tags/foo" exists) as "tags/foo"
instead of just "foo". This is both:
- pointless; the output of "git tag" includes only
refs/tags, so we know that "foo" means the one in
"refs/tags".
and
- ambiguous; in the original output, we know that the line
"foo" means that "refs/tags/foo" exists. In the new
output, it is unclear whether we mean "refs/tags/foo" or
"refs/tags/tags/foo".
The reason this happens is that commit b7cc53e9 switched
git-tag to use ref-filter's "%(refname:short)" output
formatting, which was adapted from for-each-ref. This more
general code does not know that we care only about tags, and
uses shorten_unambiguous_ref to get the short-name. We need
to tell it that we care only about "refs/tags/", and it
should shorten with respect to that value.
In theory, the ref-filter code could figure this out by us
passing FILTER_REFS_TAGS. But there are two complications
there:
1. The handling of refname:short is deep in formatting
code that does not even have our ref_filter struct, let
alone the arguments to the filter_ref struct.
2. In git v2.7.0, we expose the formatting language to the
user. If we follow this path, it will mean that
"%(refname:short)" behaves differently for "tag" versus
"for-each-ref" (including "for-each-ref refs/tags/"),
which can lead to confusion.
Instead, let's add a new modifier to the formatting
language, "strip", to remove a specific set of prefix
components. This fixes "git tag", and lets users invoke the
same behavior from their own custom formats (for "tag" or
"for-each-ref") while leaving ":short" with its same
consistent meaning in all places.
We introduce a test in t7004 for "git tag", which fails
without this patch. We also add a similar test in t3203 for
"git branch", which does not actually fail. But since it is
likely that "branch" will eventually use the same formatting
code, the test helps defend against future regressions.

We have always had is_git_directory(), for looking at a
specific directory to see if it contains a git repo. In
0179ca7 (clean: improve performance when removing lots of

checks for a non-bare repository by looking at its ".git"

However, the fix in 0179ca7 needs to be applied other
places, too. Let's make this new helper globally available.
We need to give it a better name, though, to avoid confusion
with is_git_directory(). This patch does that, documents
both functions with a comment to reduce confusion, and
removes the clean-specific references in the comments.

In shared repositories, we have to be careful when writing files whose
permissions do not allow users other than the owner to write them.
In particular, we force the marks file of fast-export and the FETCH_HEAD
when fetching to be rewritten from scratch.
This commit does not touch other calls to fopen() that want to
write files:
- commands that write to working tree files (core.sharedRepository
does not affect permission bits of working tree files),
e.g. .rej file created by "apply --reject", result of applying a
previous conflict resolution by "rerere", "git merge-file".
- git am, when splitting mails (git-am correctly cleans up its directory
after finishing, so there is no need to share those files between users)
- git submodule clone, when writing the .git file, because the file
will not be overwritten
- git_terminal_prompt() in compat/terminal.c, because it is not writing to
a file at all
- git diff --output, because the output file is clearly not intended to be
shared between the users of the current repository
- git fast-import, when writing a crash report, because the reports' file
names are unique due to an embedded process ID
- mailinfo() in mailinfo.c, because the output is clearly not intended to
be shared between the users of the current repository
- check_or_regenerate_marks() in remote-testsvn.c, because this is only
used for Git's internal testing
- git fsck, when writing lost&found blobs (this should probably be
changed, but left as a low-hanging fruit for future contributors).
Note that this patch does not touch callers of write_file() and
write_file_gently(), which would benefit from the same scrutiny as
to usage in shared repositories. Most notable users are branch,
daemon, submodule & worktree, and a worrisome call in transport.c
when updating one ref (which ignores the shared flag).
