Make the "git branch -v" messages translatable, e.g.:
5054b57 [ahead 8] branch error fixup
This is possibly a plumbing message.

When creating a new branch using the --track option, we must make sure that
we don't try to set an upstream that does not make sense to follow (using
'git pull') or update (using 'git push'). The current code checks against
using HEAD as upstream (since tracking a symref doesn't make sense). However,
tracking a tag doesn't make sense either. Indeed, tracking _any_ ref that is
not a (local or remote) branch doesn't make sense, and should be disallowed.
This patch achieves this by checking that the ref we're trying to --track
resides within refs/heads/* or refs/remotes/*. This new check replaces the
previous check against HEAD.
A couple of testcases are also added, verifying that we cannot create
branches with tags as upstreams.
Finally, some selftests relying on using a non-branch as an upstream have
been reworked or removed:
- t6040: Reverse the meaning of two tests that depend on the ability to
use (lightweight and annotated) tags as upstreams. These two tests were
originally added in commits 1be570f and 57ffc5f, and this patch reverts the
intention of those two commits.
- t7201: Remove part of a test (introduced in 9188ed8) relying on a
non-branch as upstream.

Breaks in a test assertion's && chain can potentially hide
failures from earlier commands in the chain.
Commands intended to fail should be marked with !, test_must_fail, or
test_might_fail. The examples in this patch do not require that.

Add --set-upstream option to branch that works like --track, except that
when branch exists already, its upstream info is changed without changing
the ref value.

This removes tentative "git stat" and make it take over "git status".
There are some tests that expect "git status" to exit with non-zero status
when there is something staged. Some tests expect "git status path..." to
show the status for a partial commit.
For these, replace "git status" with "git commit --dry-run". For the
ones that do not attempt a dry-run of a partial commit that check the
output from the command, check the output from "git status" as well, as
they should be identical.

stat_tracking_info() assumes that upstream references (as specified by
--track or set up automatically) are commits. By calling lookup_commit()
on them, create_objects() creates objects for them with type commit no
matter what their real type is; this disturbs lookup_tag() later on in the
call sequence, leading to git status, git branch -v and git checkout
erroring out.
Fix this by using lookup_commit_reference() instead so that (annotated)
tags can be used as upstream references.

git-checkout and git-branch allow setting up an arbitrary committish as
the upstream reference for --track. In particular, tags are allowed. But
they and git-status barf on non-commit upstreams as soon as they are
asked for trackings stats.
Expose this shortcoming by adding two tests: annotated tags are affected
but lightweight tags are OK.

This makes sure that local branches, when followed using --track, behave
the same as remote ones (e.g. differences being reported by git status
and git checkout). This fixes 1 known failure.
The fix is done within branch_get(): The first natural candidate,
namely remote_find_tracking(), does not have all the necessary info
because in general there is no remote struct for '.', and we don't want
one because it would show up in other places as well.
branch_get(), on the other hand, has access to merge_names[] (in
addition to merge[]) and therefore can set up the followed branch
easily.

According to the documentation, it is perfectly okay to follow local
branches using the --track option. Introduce a test which checks whether
they behave the same. Currently one test fails.

We try to avoid using the "-q" or "-e" options, as they are
largely useless, as explained in aadbe44f.
There is one exception for "-e" here, which is in t7701 used
to produce an "or" of patterns. This can be rewritten as an
egrep pattern.
This patch also removes use of "grep -F" in favor of the
more widely available "fgrep".

When left-right traversal counts the commits in a diverged history, it
leaves the flags in the commits smudged, and we need to clear them before
we return. Otherwise the caller cannot inspect other branches with this
function again.
