a1347dc00c t5523: use test_i18ngrep for negation
Replace the first form with the second one:

	! grep expected actual
	test_i18ngrep ! expected actual

The latter syntax is supported by test_i18ngrep defined in
t/test-lib.sh.

Although the test already passes whether GETTEXT_POSION is enabled, use
the i18n grep variant for the sake of consistency and also to make
obvious that those strings are subject to i18n.

1edbaac3bb tests: use test_i18n* functions to suppress false positives
The test functions test_i18ncmp and test_i18ngrep pretend success if run
under GETTEXT_POISON. By using those functions to test output which is
correctly marked as translatable, enables one to detect if the strings
newly marked for translation are from plumbing output. If they are
indeed from plumbing, the test would fail, and the string should be
unmarked, since it is not seen by users.

Thus, it is productive to not have false positives when running the test
under GETTEXT_POISON. This commit replaces normal test functions by
their i18n aware variants in use-cases know to be correctly marked for
translation, suppressing false positives.

f2d17068fd i18n: rebase-interactive: mark comments of squash for translation
Mark comment messages of squash/fixup file ($squash_msg) for
translation.

Helper functions this_nth_commit_message and skip_nth_commit_message
replace the previous method of making the comment messages (such as
"This is the 2nd commit message:") aided by nth_string helper function.
This step was taken as a workaround to enabled translation of entire
sentences. However, doesn't change any text seen in English by the user,
except for string "The first commit's message is:" which was changed to
match the style of other instances.

The test t3404-rebase-interactive.sh resorts to set_fake_editor which
didn't account for GETTEXT_POISON. Fix it by assuming success when we
find dummy gettext poison output where was supposed to find the first
comment line "This is a combination of $count commits.".

For that same message, use plural aware eval_ngettext instead of
eval_gettext, since other languages have more complex plural forms.

b8fc9e43a7 i18n: rebase-interactive: mark here-doc strings for translation
Use pipe to send gettext output to git stripspace instead of the
original method of using shell here-document, because command
substitution '$(...)' would not take place inside the here-documents.
The exception is the case of the last here-document redirecting to cat,
in which commands substitution works and, thus, is preserved in this
commit.

t3404: adapt test to the strings newly marked for translation
Test t3404-rebase-interactive.sh would fail under GETTEXT_POISON unless
using test_i18ngrep.

Add eval_ngettext fallback functions to be called when running, for
instance, under GETTEXT_POISON. Otherwise, tests would fail under
GETTEXT_POISON, or other build that doesn't support the GNU gettext,
because that function could not be found.

Positional arguments, such as $0, $1, etc, need to be stored on shell
variables for use in translatable strings, according to gettext manual

Add git-sh-setup.sh to LOCALIZED_SH variable in Makefile to enable

git-sh-setup.sh is a shell library to be sourced by other shell scripts.
In order to avoid other scripts from sourcing git-sh-i18n twice, remove
line that sources it from them.  Not sourcing git-sh-i18n in any script
that uses gettext would lead to failure due to, for instance, gettextln
not being found.

43ec550915 bisect: always call setup_revisions after init_revisions
init_revisions() initializes the rev_info struct to default
values, and setup_revisions() parses any command-line
arguments and finalizes the struct.

In e22278c (bisect: display first bad commit without forking
a new process, 2009-05-28), a show_diff_tree() was added
that calls the former but not the latter. It doesn't have
any arguments to parse, but it still should do the
finalizing step.

This may have caused other minor bugs over the years, but it
became much more prominent after fe37a9c (pretty: allow
tweaking tabwidth in --expand-tabs, 2016-03-29). That leaves
the expected tab width as "-1", rather than the true default
of "8". When we see a commit with tabs to be expanded, we
end up trying to add (size_t)-1 spaces to a strbuf, which
complains about the integer overflow.

The fix is easy: just call setup_revisions() with no
arguments.

e26a8c4721 repack: extend --keep-unreachable to loose objects
If you use "repack -adk" currently, we will pack all objects
that are already packed into the new pack, and then drop the
old packs. However, loose unreachable objects will be left
as-is. In theory these are meant to expire eventually with
"git prune". But if you are using "repack -k", you probably
want to keep things forever and therefore do not run "git
prune" at all. Meaning those loose objects may build up over
time and end up fooling any object-count heuristics (such as
the one done by "gc --auto", though since git-gc does not
support "repack -k", this really applies to whatever custom
scripts people might have driving "repack -k").

With this patch, we instead stuff any loose unreachable
objects into the pack along with the already-packed
unreachable objects. This may seem wasteful, but it is
really no more so than using "repack -k" in the first place.
We are at a slight disadvantage, in that we have no useful
ordering for the result, or names to hand to the delta code.
However, this is again no worse than what "repack -k" is
already doing for the packed objects. The packing of these
objects doesn't matter much because they should not be
accessed frequently (unless they actually _do_ become
referenced, but then they would get moved to a different
part of the packfile during the next repack).

905f27b86a repack: add --keep-unreachable option
The usual way to do a full repack (and what is done by
git-gc) is to run "repack -Ad --unpack-unreachable=<when>",
which will loosen any unreachable objects newer than
"<when>", and drop any older ones.

This is a safer alternative to "repack -ad", because
"<when>" becomes a grace period during which we will not
drop any new objects that are about to be referenced.
However, it isn't perfectly safe. It's always possible that
a process is about to reference an old object. Even if that
process were to take care to update the timestamp on the
object, there is no atomicity with a simultaneously running
"repack" process.

So while unlikely, there is a small race wherein we may drop
an object that is in the process of being referenced. If you
do automated repacking on a large number of active
repositories, you may hit it eventually, and the result is a
corrupted repository.

It would be nice to fix that race in the long run, but it's
complicated.  In the meantime, there is a much simpler
strategy for automated repository maintenance: do not drop
objects at all. We already have a "--keep-unreachable"
option in pack-objects; we just need to plumb it through
from git-repack.

Note that this _isn't_ plumbed through from git-gc, so at
this point it's strictly a tool for people doing their own
advanced repository maintenance strategy.

6a7bcb5471 repack: document --unpack-unreachable option
This was added back in 7e52f56 (gc: do not explode objects
which will be immediately pruned, 2012-04-07), but not
documented at the time, since it was an internal detail
between git-gc and git-repack. However, as people with
complicated setups may want to effectively reimplement the
steps of git-gc themselves, it is nice for us to document
these interfaces.

31da121f2d blame, line-log: do not loop around deref_tag()
These callers appear to expect that deref_tag() is to peel one layer
of a tag, but the function does not work that way; it has its own
loop to unwrap tags until an object that is not a tag appears.
