"Keep it homogeneous across the repository" is in general a
guideline that can be used to converge to a good practice, but
we can be a bit more prescriptive in this case. Just like the
messages we give die(_("...")) are formatted without the final
full stop and without the initial capitalization, most of the
argument help text are already formatted that way, and we want
to encourage that as the house style.

Similar to the previous commits, try to avoid peeking into the `struct
lock_file`. We also have some `struct tempfile`s -- let's avoid looking
into those as well.
Note that `do_write_index()` takes a tempfile and that when we call it,
we either have a tempfile which we can easily hand down, or we have a
lock file, from which we need to somehow obtain the internal tempfile.
So we need to leave that one instance of peeking-into. Nevertheless,
this commit leaves us not relying on exactly how the path of the
tempfile / lock file is stored internally.

Similar to the previous commits, avoid peeking into the `struct
lock_file`. Use the lock file API instead. Note how we obtain the path
to the lock file if `fdopen_lock_file()` failed and that this is not a
problem: as documented in lockfile.h, failure to "fdopen" does not roll
back the lock file and we're free to, e.g., query it for its path.

Similar to the previous commits, avoid peeking into the `struct
lock_file`. Use the lock file API instead.
The two functions we're calling here double-check that the tempfile is
indeed "active", which is arguably overkill considering how we took the
lock on the line immediately above. More importantly, this future-proofs
us against, e.g., other code appearing between these two lines or the
lock file and/or tempfile internals changing.

A `struct lock_file` is pretty much just a wrapper around a tempfile.
But it's easy enough to avoid relying on this. Use the wrappers that the
lock file API provides rather than peeking at the temp file or even into
*its* internals.

p7519 measures the performance of the fsmonitor code. To do this, it
uses the installed copy of Watchman. If Watchman isn't installed, a noop
integration script is installed in its place.
When in the latter mode, it is expected that the script should not write
a "last update token": in fact, it doesn't write anything at all since
the script is blank.
Commit 33226af42b (t/perf/fsmonitor: improve error message if typoing
hook name, 2020-10-26) made sure that running 'git update-index
--fsmonitor' did not write anything to stderr, but this is not the case
when using the empty Watchman script, since Git will complain that:
$ which watchman
watchman not found
$ cat .git/hooks/fsmonitor-empty
$ git -c core.fsmonitor=.git/hooks/fsmonitor-empty update-index --fsmonitor
warning: Empty last update token.
Prior to 33226af42b, the output wasn't checked at all, which allowed
this noop mode to work. But, 33226af42b breaks p7519 when running it
without a 'watchman(1)' on your system.
Handle this by only checking that the stderr is empty only when running
with a real watchman executable. Otherwise, assert that the error
message is the expected one when running in the noop mode.

t6016 manually reconstructs git log --graph output by using the reported
commit hashes from `git rev-parse`. Each tag is converted into an
environment variable manually, and then `echo`-ed to an expected output
file, which is in turn compared to the actual output.
The expected output is difficult to read and write, because, e.g.,
each line of output must be prefaced with echo, quoted, and properly
escaped. Additionally, the test is sensitive to trailing whitespace,
which may potentially be removed from graph log output in the future.
In order to reduce duplication, ease troubleshooting of failed tests by
improving readability, and ease the addition of more tests to this file,
port the operations to `lib-log-graph.sh`, which is already used in
several other tests, e.g., t4215. Give all merges a simple commit
message, and use a common `check_graph` macro taking a heredoc of the
expected output which does not required extensive escaping.

We use various made-up config keys in the "core" section for no real
reason. Change them to work in the "section" section instead and be
careful to also change "cores" to "sections". Make sure to also catch
"Core", "CoReS" and similar.
There are a few instances that actually want to work with a real "core"
config such as `core.bare` or `core.editor`. After this, it's clearer
that they work with "core" for a reason.

We test that we can handle `git config --file symlink` and the error
case of `git config --file symlink-to-missing-file`. For good measure,
we also throw in a test to check that we correctly handle referencing a
missing regular file. But we have such a test earlier in this script.
They both check that we fail to use `--file no-such-file --list`.
Drop the latter of these and keep the one that is in the general area
where we test `--file` and `GIT_CONFIG`. The one we're dropping also
checks that we can't even get a specific key from the missing file --
let's make sure we check that in the test we keep.

We have two tests for checking that we can handle `git config --file
../other-config ...`. One, using `--file`, was introduced in 65807ee697
("builtin-config: Fix crash when using "-f <relative path>" from
non-root dir", 2010-01-26), then another, using `GIT_CONFIG`, came about
in 270a34438b ("config: stop using config_exclusive_filename",
2012-02-16).
The latter of these was then converted to use `--file` in f7e8714101
("t: prefer "git config --file" to GIT_CONFIG", 2014-03-20). Both where
then simplified in a5db0b77b9 ("t1300: extract and use
test_cmp_config()", 2018-10-21).
These two tests differ slightly in the order of the options used, but
other than that, they are identical. Let's drop one. As noted in
f7e8714101, we do still have a test for `GIT_CONFIG` and it shares the
implementation with `--file`.

'gitmodules.txt' is a guide about the '.gitmodules' file that describes
submodule properties, and that file must exist at the root of the
repository. This was clarified in e5b5c1d2cf (Document clarification:
gitmodules, gitattributes, 2008-08-31).
However, that commit mistakenly uses the non-existing environment
variable 'GIT_WORK_DIR' to refer to the root of the repository.
Fix that by using the correct variable, 'GIT_WORK_TREE'. Take the
opportunity to modernize and improve the formatting of that guide,

The logic added to check for negative pathspec match by c0192df630
(refspec: add support for negative refspecs, 2020-09-30) looks at
refspec->src assuming it is never NULL, however when
remote.origin.push is set to ":", then refspec->src is NULL,
causing a segfault within strcmp.
Tell git to handle matching refspec by adding the needle to the
set of positively matched refspecs, since matching ":" refspecs
match anything as src.
Add test for matching refspec pushes fetch-negative-refspec
both individually and in combination with a negative refspec.

On `git maintenance start`, we add a few entries to the user's cron
table. We wrap our entries using two magic markers, "# BEGIN GIT
MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE" and "# END GIT MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE". At a later
`git maintenance stop`, we will go through the table and remove these
lines. Or rather, we will remove the "BEGIN" marker, the "END" marker
and everything between them.
Alas, we have a bug in how we detect the "END" marker: we don't. As we
loop through all the lines of the crontab, if we are in the "old
region", i.e., the region we're aiming to remove, we make an early
`continue` and don't get as far as checking for the "END" marker. Thus,
once we've seen our "BEGIN", we remove everything until the end of the
file.
Rewrite the logic for identifying these markers. There are four cases
that are mutually exclusive: The current line starts a region or it ends
it, or it's firmly within the region, or it's outside of it (and should
be printed).
