Since b7cc53e9 (tag.c: use 'ref-filter' APIs, 2015-07-11),
git-tag has started showing tags with ambiguous names (i.e.,
when both "heads/foo" and "tags/foo" exists) as "tags/foo"
instead of just "foo". This is both:
- pointless; the output of "git tag" includes only
refs/tags, so we know that "foo" means the one in
"refs/tags".
and
- ambiguous; in the original output, we know that the line
"foo" means that "refs/tags/foo" exists. In the new
output, it is unclear whether we mean "refs/tags/foo" or
"refs/tags/tags/foo".
The reason this happens is that commit b7cc53e9 switched
git-tag to use ref-filter's "%(refname:short)" output
formatting, which was adapted from for-each-ref. This more
general code does not know that we care only about tags, and
uses shorten_unambiguous_ref to get the short-name. We need
to tell it that we care only about "refs/tags/", and it
should shorten with respect to that value.
In theory, the ref-filter code could figure this out by us
passing FILTER_REFS_TAGS. But there are two complications
there:
1. The handling of refname:short is deep in formatting
code that does not even have our ref_filter struct, let
alone the arguments to the filter_ref struct.
2. In git v2.7.0, we expose the formatting language to the
user. If we follow this path, it will mean that
"%(refname:short)" behaves differently for "tag" versus
"for-each-ref" (including "for-each-ref refs/tags/"),
which can lead to confusion.
Instead, let's add a new modifier to the formatting
language, "strip", to remove a specific set of prefix
components. This fixes "git tag", and lets users invoke the
same behavior from their own custom formats (for "tag" or
"for-each-ref") while leaving ":short" with its same
consistent meaning in all places.
We introduce a test in t7004 for "git tag", which fails
without this patch. We also add a similar test in t3203 for
"git branch", which does not actually fail. But since it is
likely that "branch" will eventually use the same formatting
code, the test helps defend against future regressions.

"git symbolic-ref" forgot to report a failure with its exit status.
* jk/symbolic-ref-maint:
t1401: test reflog creation for git-symbolic-ref
symbolic-ref: propagate error code from create_symref()
If create_symref() fails, git-symbolic-ref will still exit
with code 0, and our caller has no idea that the command did
nothing.
This appears to have been broken since the beginning of time
(e.g., it is not a regression where create_symref() stopped
calling die() or something similar).

Oftentimes, patches created by git format-patch will be stored in
version control or compared with diff. In these cases, two otherwise
identical patches can have different commit hashes, leading to diff
noise. Teach git format-patch a --zero-commit option that instead
produces an all-zero hash to avoid this diff noise.

Commit 1b0d400 refactored the prepare_final() function so
that it could be reused in multiple places. Originally, the
loop had two outputs: a commit to stuff into sb->final, and
the name of the commit from the rev->pending array.
After the refactor, that loop is put in its own function
with a single return value: the object_array_entry from the
rev->pending array. This contains both the name and the object,
but with one important difference: the object is the
_original_ object found by the revision parser, not the
dereferenced commit. If one feeds a tag to "git blame", we
end up casting the tag object to a "struct commit", which
causes a segfault.
Instead, let's return the commit (properly casted) directly
from the function, and take the "name" as an optional
out-parameter. This does the right thing, and actually
simplifies the callers, who no longer need to cast or
dereference the object_array_entry themselves.

The --recurse-submodules command line parameter has existed for some
time but it has no config file equivalent.
Following the style of the corresponding parameter for git fetch, let's
invent push.recurseSubmodules to provide a default for this
parameter. This also requires the addition of --recurse-submodules=no to
allow the configuration to be overridden on the command line when
required.
The most straightforward way to implement this appears to be to make
push use code in submodule-config in a similar way to fetch.
