9c5b2fab30 tests: fix diff order arguments in test_cmp
Fix the argument order for test_cmp. When given the expected
result first the diff shows the actual output with '+' and the
expectation with '-', which is the convention for our tests.

80988783c8 submodule: Search for merges only at end of recursive merge
The submodule merge search is not useful during virtual merges because
the results cannot be used automatically.  Furthermore any suggestions
made by the search may apply to commits different than HEAD:sub and
MERGE_HEAD:sub, thus confusing the user.  Skip searching for submodule
merges during a virtual merge such as that between B and C while merging
the heads of:

    B---BC
   / \ /
  A   X
   \ / \
    C---CB

Run the search only when the recursion level is zero (!o->call_depth).
This fixes known breakage tested in t7405-submodule-merge.

72251b7de6 submodule: Demonstrate known breakage during recursive merge
Since commit 68d03e4a (Implement automatic fast-forward merge for
submodules, 2010-07-07) we try to suggest submodule commits that resolve
a conflict.  Consider a true recursive merge case

    b---bc
   / \ /
  o   X
   \ / \
    c---cb

in which the two heads themselves (bc,cb) had resolved a submodule
conflict (i.e. reference different commits than their parents).  The
submodule merge search runs during the temporary merge of the two merge
bases (b,c) and prints out a suggestion that is not meaningful to the
user.  Then during the main merge the submodule merge search runs again
but dies with the message

  fatal: --ancestry-path given but there are no bottom commits

while trying to enumerate candidates.  Demonstrate this known breakage
with a new test in t7405-submodule-merge covering the case.

313ee0d69f submodule: process conflicting submodules only once
During a merge module_list returns conflicting submodules several times
(stage 1,2,3) which caused the submodules to be used multiple times in
git submodule init, sync, update and status command.

There are 5 callers of module_list; they all read (mode, sha1, stage,
path) tuple, and most of them care only about path.  As a first level
approximation, it should be Ok (in the sense that it does not make things
worse than it currently is) to filter the duplicate paths from module_list
output, but some callers should change their behaviour when the merge in
the superproject still has conflicts.

Notice the higher-stage entries, and emit only one record from
module_list, but while doing so, mark the entry with "U" (not [0-3]) in
the $stage field and null out the SHA-1 part, as the object name for the
lowest stage does not give any useful information to the caller, and this
way any caller that uses the object name would hopefully barf.  Then
update the codepaths for each subcommands this way:

 - "update" should not touch the submodule repository, because we do not
   know what commit should be checked out yet.

 - "status" reports the conflicting submodules as 'U000...000' and does
   not recurse into them (we might later want to make it recurse).

 - The command called by "foreach" may want to do whatever it wants to do
   by noticing the merged status in the superproject itself, so feed the
   path to it from module_list as before, but only once per submodule.

 - "init" and "sync" are unlikely things to do while the superproject is
   still not merged, but as long as a submodule is there in $path, there
   is no point skipping it. It might however want to take the merged
   status of .gitmodules into account, but that is outside of the scope of
   this topic.

1e2847634e t7405: cd inside subshell instead of around
Instead of using `cd dir && (...) && cd..` use `(cd dir && ...)`

This ensures that the test doesn't get caught in the subdirectory if there
is an error in the subshell.

68d03e4a6e Implement automatic fast-forward merge for submodules
This implements a simple merge strategy for submodule hashes. We check
whether one side of the merge candidates is already contained in the
other and then merge automatically.

If both sides contain changes we search for a merge in the submodule.
In case a single one exists we check that out and suggest it as the
merge resolution. A list of candidates is returned when we find multiple
merges that contain both sides of the changes.

This is useful for a workflow in which the developers can publish topic
branches in submodules and a separate maintainer merges them. In case
the developers always wait until their branch gets merged before tracking
them in the superproject all merges of branches that contain submodule
changes will be resolved automatically. If developers choose to track
their feature branch the maintainer might get a conflict but git will
search the submodule for a merge and suggest it/them as a resolution.

0c44c94309 merge-recursive: do not die on a conflicting submodule
We cannot represent the 3-way conflicted state in the work tree
for these entries, but it is normal not to have commit objects
for them in our repository.  Just update the index and the life
will be good.

0eb6574c24 update cache for conflicting submodule entries
When merging merge bases during a recursive merge we do not want to
leave any unmerged entries. Otherwise we cannot create a temporary
tree for the recursive merge to work with.

We failed to do so in case of a submodule conflict between merge
bases, causing a NULL pointer dereference in the next step of the
recursive merge.
