When a repo was fully repacked, and is repacked again, we may run
into the situation that "new" packfiles have the same name as
already existing ones (traditionally packfiles have been named after
the list of names of objects in them, so repacking all the objects
in a single pack would have produced a packfile with the same name).
The logic is to rename the existing ones into filename like
"old-XXX", create the new ones and then remove the "old-" ones.
When something went wrong in the middle, this sequence is rolled
back by renaming the "old-" files back.
The renaming into "old-" did not work as intended, because
file_exists() was done on "XXX", not "pack-XXX". Also when rolling
back the change, the code tried to rename "old-pack-XXX" but the
saved ones are named "old-XXX", so this couldn't have worked.

In the original shell version of git-repack, any options
destined for pack-objects were left as strings, and passed
as a whole. Since the C rewrite in commit a1bbc6c (repack:
rewrite the shell script in C, 2013-09-15), we now parse
these values to integers internally, then reformat the
integers when passing the option to pack-objects.
This has the advantage that we catch format errors earlier
(i.e., when repack is invoked, rather than when pack-objects
is invoked).
It has three disadvantages, though:
1. Our internal data types may not be the right size. In
the case of "--window-memory" and "--max-pack-size",
these are "unsigned long" in pack-objects, but we can
only represent a regular "int".
2. Our parsing routines might not be the same as those of
pack-objects. For the two options above, pack-objects
understands "100m" to mean "100 megabytes", but repack
does not.
3. We have to keep a sentinel value to know whether it is
worth passing the option along. In the case of
"--window-memory", we currently do not pass it if the
value is "0". But that is a meaningful value to
pack-objects, where it overrides any configured value.
We can fix all of these by simply passing the strings from
the user along to pack-objects verbatim. This does not
actually fix anything for "--depth" or "--window", but these
are converted, too, for consistency.

When we have a remote-tracking branch named "frotz/nitfol" from a

fetch would fail to remove "frotz/nitfol" with a "git fetch --prune"

Since 64a99eb4 git gc refuses to run without the --force option if
another gc process on the same repository is already running.
However, if the repository is shared and user A runs git gc on the
repository and while that gc is still running user B runs git gc on
the same repository the gc process run by user A will not be noticed
and the gc run by user B will go ahead and run.
The problem is that the kill(pid, 0) test fails with an EPERM error
since user B is not allowed to signal processes owned by user A
(unless user B is root).
Update the test to recognize an EPERM error as meaning the process
exists and another gc should not be run (unless --force is given).

We might want to vet the existing callers of the underlying
get_octopus_merge_bases() and find out if _all_ of them are doing
anything extra (like deduping) because the machinery can return
duplicate results. And if that is the case, then we may want to
move the dedupling down the callchain instead of having it here.
It piggybacks on an unrelated handle_octopus() function only because
there are some similarities between the way they need to preprocess
their input and output their result. There is nothing similar in
the true logic between these two operations.

Support for grafts predates Git's strbuf, and hence it is understandable
that there was a hard-coded line length limit of 1023 characters (which
was chosen a bit awkwardly, given that it is *exactly* one byte short of
aligning with the 41 bytes occupied by a commit name and the following
space or new-line character).
While regular commit histories hardly win comprehensibility in general
if they merge more than twenty-two branches in one go, it is not Git's
business to limit grafts in such a way.
In this particular developer's case, the use case that requires
substantially longer graft lines to be supported is the visualization of
the commits' order implied by their changes: commits are considered to
have an implicit relationship iff exchanging them in an interactive
rebase would result in merge conflicts.
Thusly implied branches tend to be very shallow in general, and the
resulting thicket of implied branches is usually very wide; It is
actually quite common that *most* of the commits in a topic branch have
not even one implied parent, so that a final merge commit has about as
many implied parents as there are commits in said branch.
