44103f4197 t/helper: ignore everything but sources
Compiled test helpers in t/helper are out of sync with the .gitignore
files quite frequently. This can happen when new test helpers are added,
but the explicit .gitignore file is not updated in the same commit, or
when you forget to 'make clean' before checking out a different version
of git, as the different version may have a different explicit list of
test helpers to ignore.

Fix this by having an overly broad ignore pattern in that directory:
Anything, except C and shell source, will be ignored.

4f26366679 travis-ci: use 'set -x' in 'ci/*' scripts for extra tracing output
While the build logic was embedded in our '.travis.yml', Travis CI
used to produce a nice trace log including all commands executed in
those embedded scriptlets.  Since 657343a60 (travis-ci: move Travis CI
code into dedicated scripts, 2017-09-10), however, we only see the
name of the dedicated scripts, but not what those scripts are actually
doing, resulting in a less useful trace log.  A patch later in this
series will move setting environment variables from '.travis.yml' to
the 'ci/*' scripts, so not even those will be included in the trace
log.

Use 'set -x' in 'ci/lib-travisci.sh', which is sourced in most other
'ci/*' scripts, so we get trace log about the commands executed in all
of those scripts.

a1157b76eb travis-ci: set GIT_TEST_HTTPD in 'ci/lib-travisci.sh'
Commit 657343a60 (travis-ci: move Travis CI code into dedicated
scripts, 2017-09-10) converted '.travis.yml's default 'before_install'
scriptlet to the 'ci/install-dependencies.sh' script, and while doing
so moved setting GIT_TEST_HTTPD=YesPlease for the 64-bit GCC and Clang
Linux build jobs to that script.  This is wrong for two reasons:

 - The purpose of that script is, as its name suggests, to install
   dependencies, not to set any environment variables influencing
   which tests should be run (though, arguably, this was already an
   issue with the original 'before_install' scriptlet).

 - Setting the variable has no effect anymore, because that script is
   run in a separate shell process, and the variable won't be visible
   in any of the other scripts, notably in 'ci/run-tests.sh'
   responsible for, well, running the tests.

Luckily, this didn't have a negative effect on our Travis CI build
jobs, because GIT_TEST_HTTPD is a tri-state variable defaulting to
"auto" and a functioning web server was installed in those Linux build
jobs, so the httpd tests were run anyway.

Apparently the httpd tests run just fine without GIT_TEST_HTTPD being
set, therefore we could simply remove this environment variable.
However, if a bug were to creep in to change the Travis CI build
environment to run the tests as root or to not install Apache, then
the httpd tests would be skipped and the build job would still
succeed.  We would only notice if someone actually were to look
through the build job's trace log; but who would look at the trace log
of a successful build job?!

Since httpd tests are important, we do want to run them and we want to
be loudly reminded if they can't be run.  Therefore, move setting
GIT_TEST_HTTPD=YesPlease for the 64-bit GCC and Clang Linux build jobs
to 'ci/lib-travisci.sh' to ensure that the build job fails when the
httpd tests can't be run.  (We could set it in 'ci/run-tests.sh' just
as well, but it's better to keep all environment variables in one
place in 'ci/lib-travisci.sh'.)

e3371e9260 travis-ci: move setting environment variables to 'ci/lib-travisci.sh'
Our '.travis.yml's 'env.global' section sets a bunch of environment
variables for all build jobs, though none of them actually affects all
build jobs.  It's convenient for us, and in most cases it works just
fine, because irrelevant environment variables are simply ignored.

However, $GIT_SKIP_TESTS is an exception: it tells the test harness to
skip the two test scripts that are prone to occasional failures on
OSX, but as it's set for all build jobs those tests are not run in any
of the build jobs that are capable to run them reliably, either.

Therefore $GIT_SKIP_TESTS should only be set in the OSX build jobs,
but those build jobs are included in the build matrix implicitly (i.e.
by combining the matrix keys 'os' and 'compiler'), and there is no way
to set an environment variable only for a subset of those implicit
build jobs.  (Unless we were to add new scriptlets to '.travis.yml',
which is exactly the opposite direction that we took with commit
657343a60 (travis-ci: move Travis CI code into dedicated scripts,
2017-09-10)).

So move setting $GIT_SKIP_TESTS to 'ci/lib-travisci.sh', where it can
trivially be set only for the OSX build jobs.

Furthermore, move setting all other environment variables from
'.travis.yml' to 'ci/lib-travisci.sh', too, because a couple of
environment variables are already set there, and this way all
environment variables will be set in the same place.  All the logic
controlling our builds is already in the 'ci/*' scripts anyway, so
there is really no good reason to keep the environment variables
separately.

bf427a9451 travis-ci: introduce a $jobname variable for 'ci/*' scripts
A couple of 'ci/*' scripts are shared between different build jobs:
'ci/lib-travisci.sh', being a common library, is sourced from almost
every script, while 'ci/install-dependencies.sh', 'ci/run-build.sh'
and 'ci/run-tests.sh' are shared between the "regular" GCC and Clang
Linux and OSX build jobs, and the latter two scripts are used in the
GETTEXT_POISON Linux build job as well.

Our builds could benefit from these shared scripts being able to
easily tell which build job they are taking part in.  Now, it's
already quite easy to tell apart Linux vs OSX and GCC vs Clang build
jobs, but it gets trickier with all the additional Linux-based build
jobs included explicitly in the build matrix.

Unfortunately, Travis CI doesn't provide much help in this regard.
The closest we've got is the $TRAVIS_JOB_NUMBER variable, the value of
which is two dot-separated integers, where the second integer
indicates a particular build job.  While it would be possible to use
that second number to identify the build job in our shared scripts, it
doesn't seem like a good idea to rely on that:

  - Though the build job numbering sequence seems to be stable so far,
    Travis CI's documentation doesn't explicitly states that it is
    indeed stable and will remain so in the future.  And even if it
    were stable,

  - if we were to remove or insert a build job in the middle, then the
    job numbers of all subsequent build jobs would change accordingly.

So roll our own means of simple build job identification and introduce
the $jobname environment variable in our builds, setting it in the
environments of the explicitly included jobs in '.travis.yml', while
constructing one in 'ci/lib-travisci.sh' as the combination of the OS
and compiler name for the GCC and Clang Linux and OSX build jobs.  Use
$jobname instead of $TRAVIS_OS_NAME in scripts taking different
actions based on the OS and build job (when installing P4 and Git LFS
dependencies and including them in $PATH).  The following two patches
will also rely on $jobname.

afaef55e23 git-compat-util: introduce skip_to_optional_arg()
We often accept both a "--key" option and a "--key=<val>" option.

These options currently are parsed using something like:

if (!strcmp(arg, "--key")) {
	/* do something */
} else if (skip_prefix(arg, "--key=", &arg)) {
	/* do something with arg */
}

which is a bit cumbersome compared to just:

if (skip_to_optional_arg(arg, "--key", &arg)) {
	/* do something with arg */
}

This also introduces skip_to_optional_arg_default() for the few
cases where something different should be done when the first
argument is exactly "--key" than when it is exactly "--key=".

In general it is better for UI consistency and simplicity if
"--key" and "--key=" do the same thing though, so that using
skip_to_optional_arg() should be encouraged compared to
skip_to_optional_arg_default().

Note that these functions can be used to parse any "key=value"
string where "key" is also considered as valid, not just
command line options.

b3b05971c1 clone: support 'clone --shared' from a worktree
When worktree functionality was originally implemented, the possibility
of 'clone --local' from within a worktree was overlooked, with the
result that the location of the "objects" directory of the source
repository was computed incorrectly, thus the objects could not be
copied or hard-linked by the clone. This shortcoming was addressed by
744e469755 (clone: allow --local from a linked checkout, 2015-09-28).

However, the related case of 'clone --shared' (despite being handled
only a few lines away from the 'clone --local' case) was not fixed by
744e469755, with a similar result of the "objects" directory location
being incorrectly computed for insertion into the 'alternates' file.
Fix this.

a48ebe9724 branch: update warning message shown when copying a misnamed branch
When a user tries to rename a branch that has a "bad name" (e.g.,

been renamed "away". A similar message is shown when trying to create
a copy of a misnamed branch even though it doesn't remove the misnamed
branch. This is not correct and may confuse the user.

So, update the warning message shown to be more precise that only a copy
of the misnamed branch has been created. It's better to show the warning
message than not showing it at all as it makes the user aware of the

f6cea74de6 branch: improve documentation and naming of create_branch() parameters
The documentation for 'create_branch()' was incomplete as it didn't say
what certain parameters were used for. Further a parameter name wasn't
very communicative.

So, add missing documentation for the sake of completeness and easy
reference. Also, rename the concerned parameter to make its name more
communicative.

ade546be47 worktree: invoke post-checkout hook (unless --no-checkout)
git-clone and git-checkout both invoke the post-checkout hook following
a successful checkout, yet git-worktree neglects to do so even though it
too "checks out" the worktree. Fix this oversight.

Implementation note: The newly-created worktree may reference a branch
or be detached. In the latter case, a commit lookup is performed, though
the result is used only in a boolean sense to (a) determine if the
commit actually exists, and (b) assign either the branch name or commit
ID to HEAD. Since the post-commit hook needs to know the ID of the
checked-out commit, the lookup now needs to be done in all cases, rather
than only when detached. Consequently, a new boolean is needed to handle
(b) since the lookup result itself can no longer perform that role.

c3ff8f6c14 strbuf: release memory on read error in strbuf_read_once()
If other strbuf add functions cause the first allocation and
subsequently encounter an error then they release the memory, restoring
the pristine state of the strbuf.  That simplifies error handling for
callers.

Do the same in strbuf_read_once(), and do it also in case no bytes were
read -- which may or may not be an error as well, depending on the
caller.

addcf6cfde fmt-merge-msg: avoid leaking strbuf in shortlog()
Use string_list_append_nodup() instead of string_list_append() to hand
over ownership of a detached strbuf and thus avoid leaking its memory.

abfb04d0c7 launch_editor(): indicate that Git waits for user input
When a graphical GIT_EDITOR is spawned by a Git command that opens
and waits for user input (e.g. "git rebase -i"), then the editor window
might be obscured by other windows. The user might be left staring at
the original Git terminal window without even realizing that s/he needs
to interact with another window before Git can proceed. To this user Git
appears hanging.

Print a message that Git is waiting for editor input in the original
terminal and get rid of it when the editor returns, if the terminal
supports erasing the last line.  Also, make sure that our message is
terminated with a whitespace so that any message the editor may show
upon starting up will be kept separate from our message.

Power users might not want to see this message or their editor might
already print such a message (e.g. emacsclient). Allow these users to
suppress the message by disabling the "advice.waitingForEditor" config.

The standard advise() function is not used here as it would always add
a newline which would make deleting the message harder.

176b2d328c setup.c: fix comment about order of .git directory discovery
Since gitfiles were introduced in b44ebb19e (Add platform-independent
.git "symlink", 2008-02-20) the order of checks during .git directory
discovery is: gitfile, gitdir, bare repo.  However, that commit did
only partially update the in-code comment describing this order,
missing the last line which still puts gitdir before gitfile.

fd66bcc31f diff-tree: read the index so attribute checks work in bare repositories
A regression was introduced in 557a5998d (submodule: remove
gitmodules_config, 2017-08-03) to how attribute processing was handled
in bare repositories when running the diff-tree command.

By default the attribute system will first try to read ".gitattribute"
files from the working tree and then falls back to reading them from the
index if there isn't a copy checked out in the worktree.  Prior to
557a5998d the index was read as a side effect of the call to
'gitmodules_config()' which ensured that the index was already populated
before entering the attribute subsystem.

Since the call to 'gitmodules_config()' was removed the index is no
longer being read so when the attribute system tries to read from the
in-memory index it doesn't find any ".gitattribute" entries effectively
ignoring any configured attributes.

Fix this by explicitly reading the index during the setup of diff-tree.
