A few tests in t5516 want to assert that we can delete a corrupted ref
whose pointed-to object is missing. They do so by using the "main"
branch, which is also pointed to by HEAD.
This does work, but only because of a subtle assumption about the
implementation. We do not block the deletion because of the invalid ref,
but we _also_ do not notice that the deleted branch is pointed to by
HEAD. And so the safety rule of "do not allow HEAD to be deleted in a
non-bare repository" does not kick in, and the test passes.
Let's instead use a non-HEAD branch. That still tests what we care about
here (deleting a corrupt ref), but without implicitly depending on our
failure to notice that we're deleting HEAD. That will future proof the
test against that behavior changing.

The "incremental-repack task" test replaces the object directory with a
known state. As a result, some of our refs point to objects that are not
included in that state.
Commit 3cf5f221be (t7900: clean up some broken refs, 2021-01-19) cleaned
up some of those (that were causing warnings to stderr from the
maintenance process). But there are a few more that were missed. These
aren't hurting anything for now, but it's certainly an unexpected state
to leave the test repository in, and it will become a problem if repack
ever gets more picky about broken refs.
Let's clean up those additional refs (which are all in refs/remotes,
with nothing there that isn't broken), and add an extra "for-each-ref"
call to assert that we've got everything.

Change the error shown when a http.pinnedPubKey doesn't match to point
the http.pinnedPubKey variable added in aeff8a6121 (http: implement
public key pinning, 2016-02-15), e.g.:
git -c http.pinnedPubKey=sha256/someNonMatchingKey ls-remote https://github.com/git/git.git
fatal: unable to access 'https://github.com/git/git.git/' with http.pinnedPubkey configuration: SSL: public key does not match pinned public key!
Before this we'd emit the exact same thing without the " with

we're going to get a translated message (everything after the ":" is
hardcoded in English in libcurl), and we've got a reference to the

parse_feature_value() takes an offset, and uses it to seek past the
point in features_list that we've already seen. However if the feature
being searched for does not specify a value, the offset is not
updated. Therefore if we call parse_feature_value() in a loop on a
value-less feature, we'll keep on parsing the same feature over and over
again. This usually isn't an issue: there's no point in using
next_server_feature_value() to search for repeated instances of the same
capability unless that capability typically specifies a value - but a
broken server could send a response that omits the value for a feature
even when we are expecting a value.
Therefore we add an offset update calculation for the no-value case,
which helps ensure that loops using next_server_feature_value() will
always terminate.
next_server_feature_value(), and the offset calculation, were first
added in 2.28 in 2c6a403d96 (connect: add function to parse multiple
v1 capability values, 2020-05-25).

Make githooks(5) the source of truth for what hooks git supports, and
punt out early on hooks we don't know about in find_hook(). This
ensures that the documentation and the C code's idea about existing
hooks doesn't diverge.
We still have Perl and Python code running its own hooks, but that'll
be addressed by Emily Shaffer's upcoming "git hook run" command.
This resolves a long-standing TODO item in bugreport.c of there being
no centralized listing of hooks, and fixes a bug with the bugreport
listing only knowing about 1/4 of the p4 hooks. It didn't know about
the recent "reference-transaction" hook either.
We could make the find_hook() function die() or BUG() out if the new
known_hook() returned 0, but let's make it return NULL just as it does
when it can't find a hook of a known type. Making it die() is overly
anal, and unlikely to be what we need in catching stupid typos in the
name of some new hook hardcoded in git.git's sources. By making this
be tolerant of unknown hook names, changes in a later series to make
"git hook run" run arbitrary user-configured hook names will be easier
to implement.
I have not been able to directly test the CMake change being made
here. Since 4c2c38e800 (ci: modification of main.yml to use cmake for
vs-build job, 2020-06-26) some of the Windows CI has a hard dependency
on CMake, this change works there, and is to my eyes an obviously
correct use of a pattern established in previous CMake changes,
namely:
- 061c2240b1 (Introduce CMake support for configuring Git,
2020-06-12)
- 709df95b78 (help: move list_config_help to builtin/help,
2020-04-16)
- 976aaedca0 (msvc: add a Makefile target to pre-generate the Visual
Studio solution, 2019-07-29)
The LC_ALL=C is needed because at least in my locale the dash ("-") is
ignored for the purposes of sorting, which results in a different
order. I'm not aware of anything in git that has a hard dependency on
the order, but e.g. the bugreport output would end up using whatever
locale was in effect when git was compiled.

I also include testcases for `git reset --{hard,merge,keep}`. A hard

but we cannot make `git reset --hard` preserve untracked files without
some migration work.
Also, the two commands `checkout --force` (because of the --force) and

54fd3243da ("rebase -i: reread the todo list if `exec` touched it",
2017-04-26) sought to reread the todo list after running an exec
command only if it had been changed. To accomplish this it checks the
stat data of the todo list after running an exec command to see if it
has changed. Unfortunately there are two problems, firstly the
implementation is buggy we actually reread the list after each exec
which is quadratic in the number of commit lookups and secondly the
design is predicated on using nanosecond time stamps which are not the
default.
The implementation bug stems from the fact that we write a new todo
list to disk before running each command but do not update the stat
data to reflect this[1].
The design problem is that it is possible for the user to edit the
todo list without changing its size or inode which means we have to
rely on the mtime to tell us if it has changed. Unfortunately unless
git is built with USE_NSEC it is possible for the original and edited
list to share the same mtime.
Ideally "git rebase --edit-todo" would set a flag that we would then
check in sequencer.c. Unfortunately this is approach will not work as
there are scripts in the wild that write to the todo list directly
without running "git rebase --edit-todo". Instead of relying on stat
data this patch simply reads the possibly edited todo list and
compares it to the original with memcmp(). This is much faster than
reparsing the todo list each time. This patch reduces the time to run
git rebase -r -xtrue v2.32.0~100 v2.32.0
which runs 419 exec commands by 6.6%. For comparison fixing the
implementation bug in stat based approach reduces the time by a
further 1.4% and is indistinguishable from never rereading the todo
list.

While git can be compiled with SANITIZE=leak, we have not run
regression tests under that mode. Memory leaks have only been fixed as
one-offs without structured regression testing.
This change adds CI testing for it. We'll now build and small set of
whitelisted t00*.sh tests under Linux with a new job called
"linux-leaks".
The CI target uses a new GIT_TEST_PASSING_SANITIZE_LEAK=true test
mode. When running in that mode, we'll assert that we were compiled
with SANITIZE=leak. We'll then skip all tests, except those that we've
opted-in by setting "TEST_PASSES_SANITIZE_LEAK=true".
A test setting "TEST_PASSES_SANITIZE_LEAK=true" setting can in turn
make use of the "SANITIZE_LEAK" prerequisite, should they wish to
selectively skip tests even under
"GIT_TEST_PASSING_SANITIZE_LEAK=true". In the preceding commit we
started doing this in "t0004-unwritable.sh" under SANITIZE=leak, now
it'll combine nicely with "GIT_TEST_PASSING_SANITIZE_LEAK=true".
This is how tests that don't set "TEST_PASSES_SANITIZE_LEAK=true" will
be skipped under GIT_TEST_PASSING_SANITIZE_LEAK=true:
$ GIT_TEST_PASSING_SANITIZE_LEAK=true ./t0001-init.sh
1..0 # SKIP skip all tests in t0001 under SANITIZE=leak, TEST_PASSES_SANITIZE_LEAK not set
The intent is to add more TEST_PASSES_SANITIZE_LEAK=true annotations
as follow-up change, but let's start small to begin with.
In ci/run-build-and-tests.sh we make use of the default "*" case to
run "make test" without any GIT_TEST_* modes. SANITIZE=leak is known
to fail in combination with GIT_TEST_SPLIT_INDEX=true in
t0016-oidmap.sh, and we're likely to have other such failures in
various GIT_TEST_* modes. Let's focus on getting the base tests
passing, we can expand coverage to GIT_TEST_* modes later.
It would also be possible to implement a more lightweight version of
this by only relying on setting "LSAN_OPTIONS". See
<YS9OT/pn5rRK9cGB@coredump.intra.peff.net>[1] and
<YS9ZIDpANfsh7N+S@coredump.intra.peff.net>[2] for a discussion of
that. I've opted for this approach of adding a GIT_TEST_* mode instead
because it's consistent with how we handle other special test modes.
Being able to add a "!SANITIZE_LEAK" prerequisite and calling
"test_done" early if it isn't satisfied also means that we can more
incrementally add regression tests without being forced to fix
widespread and hard-to-fix leaks at the same time.
We have tests that do simple checking of some tool we're interested
in, but later on in the script might be stressing trace2, or common
sources of leaks like "git log" in combination with the tool (e.g. the
commit-graph tests). To be clear having a prerequisite could also be
accomplished by using "LSAN_OPTIONS" directly.
On the topic of "LSAN_OPTIONS": It would be nice to have a mode to
aggregate all failures in our various scripts, see [2] for a start at
doing that which sets "log_path" in "LSAN_OPTIONS". I've punted on
that for now, it can be added later.
As of writing this we've got major regressions between master..seen,
i.e. the t000*.sh tests and more fixed since 31f9acf9ce (Merge branch
'ah/plugleaks', 2021-08-04) have regressed recently.
See the discussion at <87czsv2idy.fsf@evledraar.gmail.com>[3] about
the lack of this sort of test mode, and 0e5bba53af (add UNLEAK
annotation for reducing leak false positives, 2017-09-08) for the
initial addition of SANITIZE=leak.
See also 09595ab381 (Merge branch 'jk/leak-checkers', 2017-09-19),
7782066f67 (Merge branch 'jk/apache-lsan', 2019-05-19) and the recent
936e58851a (Merge branch 'ah/plugleaks', 2021-05-07) for some of the
past history of "one-off" SANITIZE=leak (and more) fixes.
As noted in [5] we can't support this on OSX yet until Clang 14 is
released, at that point we'll probably want to resurrect that
"osx-leaks" job.

The difftool dir-diff mode handles symlinks by replacing them with their
readlink(2) values. This allows diff tools to see changes to symlinks
as if they were regular text diffs with the old and new path values.
This is analogous to what "git diff" displays when symlinks change.
The temporary diff directories that are created initially contain
symlinks because they get checked-out using a temporary index that
retains the original symlinks as checked-in to the repository.
A bug was introduced when difftool was rewritten in C that made
difftool write the readlink(2) contents into the pointed-to file rather
than the symlink itself. The write was going through the symlink and
writing to its target rather than writing to the symlink path itself.
Replace symlinks with raw text files by unlinking the symlink path
before writing the readlink(2) content into them.
When 18ec800512 (difftool: handle modified symlinks in dir-diff mode,
2017-03-15) added handling for modified symlinks this bug got recorded
in the test suite. The tests included the pointed-to symlink target
paths. These paths were being reported because difftool was erroneously
writing to them, but they should have never been reported nor written.
Correct the modified-symlinks test cases by removing the target files
from the expected output.
Add a test to ensure that symlinks are written with the readlink(2)
values and that the target files contain their original content.

When a git_config() call was added in dbfae68969 (help: reuse
print_columns() for help -a, 2012-04-13) to read the column config
we'd always use the resulting "colopts" variable.
Then in 63eae83f8f (help: add "-a --verbose" to list all commands
with synopsis, 2018-05-20) we started only using the "colopts" config
under "--all" if "--no-verbose" was also given, but the "git_config()"
call was not moved inside the "verbose" branch of the code.
This change effectively does that, we'll only call list_commands()
under "--all --no-verbose", so let's have it look up the config it
needs. See 26c7d06783 (help -a: improve and make --verbose default, 2018-09-29) for another case in help.c where we look up config.
The get_colopts() function is named for consistency with the existing
get_alias() function added in 26c7d06783.

The "help" builtin has been able to emit configuration variables since
e17ca92637 (completion: drop the hard coded list of config vars,
2018-05-26), but it hasn't produced exactly the format the completion
script wanted. Let's do that.
We got partway there in 2675ea1cc0 (completion: use 'sort -u' to
deduplicate config variable names, 2019-08-13) and
d9438873c4 (completion: deduplicate configuration sections,
2019-08-13), but after both we still needed some sorting,
de-duplicating and awk post-processing of the list.
We can instead simply do the relevant parsing ourselves (we were doing
most of it already), and call string_list_remove_duplicates() after
already sorting the list, so the caller doesn't need to invoke "sort
-u". The "--config-for-completion" output is the same as before after
being passed through "sort -u".
Then add a new "--config-sections-for-completion" option. Under that
output we'll emit config sections like "alias" (instead of "alias." in
the --config-for-completion output).
We need to be careful to leave the "--config-for-completion" option
compatible with users git, but are still running a shell with an older
git-completion.bash. If we e.g. changed the option name they'd see
messages about git-completion.bash being unable to find the
"--config-for-completion" option.
Such backwards compatibility isn't something we should bend over
backwards for, it's only helping users who:
* Upgrade git
* Are in an old shell
* The git-completion.bash in that shell hasn't cached the old
"--config-for-completion" output already.
But since it's easy in this case to retain compatibility, let's do it,
the older versions of git-completion.bash won't care that the input
they get doesn't change after a "sort -u".
While we're at it let's make "--config-for-completion" die if there's
anything left over in "argc", and do the same in the new
"--config-sections-for-completion" option.

Add a regression test for the --config-for-completion option, this was
tested for indirectly with the test added in 7a09a8f093 (completion:
add tests for 'git config' completion, 2019-08-13), but let's do it
directly here as well.

As preceding commits have incrementally established all of the --all,
--guides, --config and hidden --config-for-completion options are
mutually exclusive. So let's use OPT_CMDMODE() to parse the
command-line instead, and take advantage of its conflicting options
detection.
This is the first command with a hidden CMDMODE, so let's introduce a
OPT_CMDMODE_F() macro to go along with OPT_CMDMODE().
I think this makes the usage information that we emit slightly worse,
e.g. before we'd emit:
$ git help --all --config
fatal: --config and --all cannot be combined
usage: git help [-a|--all] [--[no-]verbose]]
[[-i|--info] [-m|--man] [-w|--web]] [<command>]
or: git help [-g|--guides]
or: git help [-c|--config]
[...]
$
And now:
$ git help --all --config
error: option `config' is incompatible with --all
$
But improving that is a general topic for parse-options.c improvement,
i.e. we should probably emit the full usage in that case.
