The mark_parents_uninteresting() function uses two loops:
an outer one to process our queue of pending parents, and an
inner one to process first-parent chains. This is a clever
optimization from 941ba8db57 (Eliminate recursion in
setting/clearing marks in commit list, 2012-01-14) to limit
the number of linked-list allocations when following
single-parent chains.
Unfortunately, this makes the result a little hard to read.
Let's replace the list with a stack. Then we don't have to
worry about doing this double-loop optimization, as we'll
just reuse the top element of the stack as we pop/push.

We allow UNINTERESTING objects in a traversal to be
unavailable. As part of this, mark_parents_uninteresting()
checks whether we have a particular uninteresting parent; if
not, we will mark it as "parsed" so that later code skips
it.
This code is redundant and even a little bit harmful, so
let's drop it.
It's redundant because when our parse_object() call in
add_parents_to_list() fails, we already quietly skip
UNINTERESTING parents. This redundancy is a historical
artifact. The mark_parents_uninteresting() protection is
from 454fbbcde3 (git-rev-list: allow missing objects when
the parent is marked UNINTERESTING, 2005-07-10). Much later,
aeeae1b771 (revision traversal: allow UNINTERESTING objects
to be missing, 2009-01-27) covered more cases by making the
actual parse more gentle.
As an aside, even if this weren't redundant, it would be
insufficient. The gentle parsing handles both missing and
corrupted objects, whereas the has_object_file() check
we're getting rid of covers only missing ones.
And the code we're dropping is harmful for two reasons:
1. We spend extra time on the object lookup, even though
we don't actually need the information at this point
(and will just repeat that lookup later when we parse
for the common case that we _do_ have the object).
2. It "lies" about the commit by setting the parsed flag,
even though we didn't load any useful data into the
struct. This shouldn't matter for the UNINTERESTING
case, but we may later clear our flags and do another
traversal in the same process. While pretty unlikely,
it's possible that we could then look at the same
commit without the UNINTERESTING flag, in which case
we'd produce the wrong result (we'd think it's a commit
with no parents, when in fact we should probably die
due to the missing object).

It's generally acceptable for UNINTERESTING objects in a
traversal to be unavailable (e.g., see aeeae1b771). When
marking trees UNINTERESTING, we access the object database
twice: once to check if the object is missing (and return
quietly if it is), and then again to actually parse it.
We can instead just try to parse; if that fails, we can then
return quietly. That halves the effort we spend on locating
the object.
Note that this isn't _exactly_ the same as the original
behavior, as the parse failure could be due to other
problems than a missing object: it could be corrupted, in
which case the original code would have died. But the new
behavior is arguably better, as it covers the object being
unavailable for any reason. We'll also still issue a warning
to stderr in such a case.

Fix a regression in 88f6ffc1c2 ("add -p: only bind search key if
there's more than one hunk", 2018-02-13) which is present in
2.17.0-rc*, but not 2.16.0.
In Perl, regex variables like $1 always refer to the last regex
match. When the aforementioned change added a new regex match between
the old match and the corresponding code that was expecting $1, the $1
variable would always be undef, since the newly inserted regex match
doesn't have any captures.
As a result the "/" feature to search for a string in a hunk by regex
completely broke, on git.git:
$ perl -pi -e 's/Git/Tig/g' README.md
$ ./git --exec-path=$PWD add -p
[..]
Stage this hunk [y,n,q,a,d,j,J,g,/,s,e,?]? s
Split into 4 hunks.
[...]
Stage this hunk [y,n,q,a,d,j,J,g,/,s,e,?]? /Many
Use of uninitialized value $1 in string eq at /home/avar/g/git/git-add--interactive line 1568, <STDIN> line 1.
search for regex? Many
I.e. the initial "/regex" command wouldn't work, and would always emit
a warning and ask again for a regex, now it works as intended again.

When upload-pack gained partial clone support (v2.17.0-rc0~132^2~12,
2017-12-08), it was guarded by the uploadpack.allowFilter config item
to allow server operators to control when they start supporting it.
That config item didn't go far enough, though: it controls whether the
'filter' capability is advertised, but if a (custom) client ignores
the capability advertisement and passes a filter specification anyway,
the server would handle that despite allowFilter being false.
This is particularly significant if a security bug is discovered in
this new experimental partial clone code. Installations without
uploadpack.allowFilter ought not to be affected since they don't
intend to support partial clone, but they would be swept up into being
vulnerable.
Simplify and limit the attack surface by making uploadpack.allowFilter
disable the feature, not just the advertisement of it.

Hotfix for recently graduated topic that give help to completion
scripts from the Git subcommands that are being completed
* nd/parseopt-completion:
t9902: disable test on the list of merge-strategies under GETTEXT_POISON
completion: clear cached --options when sourcing the completion script
This fixes a regression introduced in 2e612731b5 (submodule: port
submodule subcommand 'deinit' from shell to C, 2018-01-15), when
handling pathspecs that do not exist gracefully. This restores the
historic behavior of reporting the pathspec as unknown and returning
instead of reporting a bug.

In 1ada5020b3 ("stash: use stash_push for no verb form", 2017-02-28),
when the pathspec argument was introduced in 'git stash', that was also
documented. However I forgot to remove an extra square bracket after
the '--message' argument, even though the square bracket should have
been after the pathspec argument (where it was also added).
Remove the extra square bracket after the '--message' argument, to show
that the pathspec argument should be used with the 'push' verb.
While the pathspec argument can be used without the push verb, that's a
special case described later in the man page, and removing the first extra
square bracket instead of the second one makes the synopis easier to
understand.

The code to learn the list of merge strategies from the output of
"git merge -s help" forces C locale, so that it can notice the
message shown to indicate where the list starts in the output.
However, GETTEXT_POISON build corrupts its output even when run in
the C locale, and we cannot expect this test to succeed.
