The 'feature.experimental' setting includes config options that are
not committed to become defaults, but could use additional testing.
Update the following config settings to take new defaults, and to
use the repo_settings struct if not already using them:
* 'pack.useSparse=true'
* 'fetch.negotiationAlgorithm=skipping'
In the case of fetch.negotiationAlgorithm, the existing logic
would load the config option only when about to use the setting,
so had a die() statement on an unknown string value. This is
removed as now the config is parsed under prepare_repo_settings().
In general, this die() is probably misplaced and not valuable.
A test was removed that checked this die() statement executed.

The core.untrackedCache config setting is slightly complicated,
so clarify its use and centralize its parsing into the repo
settings.
The default value is "keep" (returned as -1), which persists the
untracked cache if it exists.
If the value is set as "false" (returned as 0), then remove the
untracked cache if it exists.
If the value is set as "true" (returned as 1), then write the
untracked cache and persist it.
Instead of relying on magic values of -1, 0, and 1, split these
options into an enum. This allows the use of "-1" as a
default value. After parsing the config options, if the value is
unset we can initialize it to UNTRACKED_CACHE_KEEP.

The commit-graph feature has seen a lot of activity in the past
year or so since it was introduced. The feature is a critical
performance enhancement for medium- to large-sized repos, and
does not significantly hurt small repos.
Change the defaults for core.commitGraph and gc.writeCommitGraph
to true so users benefit from this feature by default.
There are several places in the test suite where the environment
variable GIT_TEST_COMMIT_GRAPH is disabled to avoid reading a
commit-graph, if it exists. The config option overrides the
environment, so swap these. Some GIT_TEST_COMMIT_GRAPH assignments
remain, and those are to avoid writing a commit-graph when a new
commit is created.

There are a few important config settings that are not loaded
during git_default_config. These are instead loaded on-demand.
Centralize these config options to a single scan, and store
all of the values in a repo_settings struct. The values for
each setting are initialized as negative to indicate "unset".
This centralization will be particularly important in a later
change to introduce "meta" config settings that change the
defaults for these config settings.

Completing configuration sections and variable names for the stuck
argument of 'git clone --config=<TAB>' requires a bit of extra care
compared to doing the same for the unstuck argument of 'git clone
--config <TAB>', because we have to deal with that '--config=' being
part of the current word to be completed.
Add an option to the __git_complete_config_variable_name_and_value()
and in turn to the __git_complete_config_variable_name() helper
functions to specify the current section/variable name to be
completed, so they can be used even when completing the stuck argument
of '--config='.
__git_complete_config_variable_value() already has such an option, and
thus no further changes were necessary to complete possible values

'git config' expects a configuration variable's name and value in

the command line. 'git -c', however, expects them in a single option
joined by a '=' character, so we should be able to complete values
when they are following 'section.name=' in the same word.
Add new options to the __git_complete_config_variable_value() function

'git config' expects a configuration variable's name and value in
separate arguments, so we let the __gitcomp() helper append a space
character to each variable name by default, like we do for most other
things (--options, refs, paths, etc.). 'git -c', however, expects
them in a single option joined by a '=' character, i.e.
'section.name=value', so we should append a '=' character to each
fully completed variable name, but no space, so the user can continue
typing the value right away.
Add an option to the __git_complete_config_variable_name() function to
allow callers to specify an alternate suffix to add, and use it to
append that '=' character to configuration variables. Update the
__gitcomp() helper function to not append a trailing space to any
completion words ending with a '=', not just to those option with a

The second '*' in the '--*=*' pattern of the inner 'case' statement of
the __gitcomp() helper function never matches anything, so let's use
'--*=' instead.
The purpose of that inner case statement is to decide when to append a
trailing space to the listed options and when not. When an option
requires a stuck argument, i.e. '--option=', then the trailing space
should not be added, so the user can continue typing the required
argument right away. That '--*=*' pattern is supposed to match these
options, but for this purpose that second '*' is unnecessary, a '--*='
pattern works just as well. That second '*' would only make a
difference in case of a possible completion word like
'--option=value', but our completion script never passes such a word
to __gitcomp(), because the '--option=' and its 'value' must be
completed separately.

The completion script runs the classic '| sort | uniq' pipeline to
deduplicate the output of 'git help --config-for-completion'. 'sort

stage. Not a bit win, as it's only run once as the list of supported
configuration variables is initialized, but at least it sets a better

The number of configuration variables listed by the completion script
grew quite when we started to auto-generate it from the documentation
[1], so we now complete them in two steps: first we list only the
section names, then the rest [2]. To get the section names we simply
strip everything following the first dot in each variable name,
resulting in a lot of repeated section names, because most sections
contain more than one configuration variable. This is not a
correctness issue in practice, because Bash's completion facilities
remove all repetitions anyway, but these repetitions make testing a
bit harder.
Replace the small 'sed' script removing subsections and variable names
with an 'awk' script that does the same, and in addition removes any
repeated configuration sections as well (by first creating and filling
an associative array indexed by all encountered configuration
sections, and then iterating over this array and printing the indices,
i.e. the unique section names). This change makes the failing 'git
config - section' test in 't9902-completion.sh' pass.
Note that this changes the order of section names in the output, and
makes it downright undeterministic, but this is not an issue, because
Bash sorts them before presenting them to the user, and our completion
tests sort them as well before comparing with the expected output.
Yeah, it would be simpler and shorter to just append '| sort -u' to
that command, but that would incur the overhead of one more external
process and pipeline stage every time a user completes configuration
sections.

The next patches will change/refactor the way we complete
configuration variable names and values, so add a few tests to cover
the basics, namely the completion of matching configuration sections,
full variable names, and their values.
Note that the test checking the completion of configuration sections
is currently failing, though it's not a sign of an actual bug. If a
section contains multiple variables, then that section is currently
repeated as many times as the number of variables in there. This is
not a correctness issue in practice, because Bash's completion
facilities remove all repetitions anyway. Consequently, we could list
all those repeated sections in the expected output of this test as
well, but then it would have to be updated whenever a new
configuration variable is added to those sections. Instead, list each
matching configuration section only once, mark the test as failing for
now, and the next patch will update the completion script to avoid
those repetitions.

Most 'color.*' configuration variables, with the sole exception of
'color.pager', accept the same set of values, but our completion
script recognizes only about half of them. We could explicitly add
all those missing variables, but let's try to reduce future
maintenance burden, and use the catch-all 'color.*' pattern instead,
so this list won't get out of sync when a similar new configuration
variable accepting the same values is introduced [1].
Furthermore, their documentation explicitly mentions that they all
accept the standard boolean values 'false' and 'true' as well, so list
these, too, among the possible values.
[1] OTOH, there will be a maintenance burden if ever a new
'color.something' is introduced which doesn't accept the same set
of values. We'll see which one happens first...

Long ago, in 97bfeb34df (Release pack windows before reporting out of
memory., 2006-12-24), we taught xmalloc() and friends to try unmapping
pack windows when malloc() failed. It's unlikely that his helps a lot in
practice, and it has some downsides. First, the downsides:
1. It makes xmalloc() not thread-safe. We've worked around this in
pack-objects.c, which installs its own locking version of the
try_to_free_routine(). But other threaded code doesn't.
2. It makes the system as a whole harder to reason about. Functions
which allocate heap memory under the hood may have farther-reaching
effects than expected.
That might be worth the tradeoff if there's a benefit. But in practice,
it seems unlikely. We're generally dealing with mmap'd files, so the OS
is going to do a much better job at responding to memory pressure by
dropping individual pages (the exception is systems with NO_MMAP, but
even there the OS can probably respond just as well with swapping).
So the only thing we're really freeing is address space. On 64-bit
systems, we have plenty of that to go around. On 32-bit systems, it
could possibly help. But around the same time we made two other changes:
77ccc5bbd1 (Introduce new config option for mmap limit., 2006-12-23) and
60bb8b1453 (Fully activate the sliding window pack access., 2006-12-23).
Together that means that a 32-bit system should have no more than 256MB
total of packed-git mmaps at one time, split between a few 32MB windows.
It's unlikely we have any address space problems since then, but we
don't have any data since the features were all added at the same time.
Likewise, xmmap() will try to free memory. At first glance, it seems
like we'd need this (when we try to mmap a new window, we might need to
close an old one to save address space on a 32-bit system). But we're
saved again by core.packedGitLimit: if we're going to exceed our 256MB
limit, we'll close an existing window before we even call mmap().
So it seems unlikely that this feature is actually doing anything
useful. And while we don't have reports of it harming anything (probably
because it rarely if ever kicks in), it would be nice to simplify the
system overall. This patch drops the whole try_to_free system from
xmalloc(), as well as the manual pack memory release in xmmap().

There are two perf scripts numbered p5600, but with otherwise different

get confused between the two. But "aggregate.perl" just prints the test

makes it impossible to skip one test but not the other with
GIT_SKIP_TESTS.
Let's renumber the one that appeared later (by date -- the source of the
