This ancient test script does a lot of manual checking of
test conditions with "if" blocks. We can simplify this
by relying on helpers like test_must_fail.
Note that a failing "grep" call here won't produce any
verbose output, but that's OK. These days we rely on "-x" to
tell us about such commands. And in addition, these greps
are soon to be converted to test_i18ngrep (which is itself
soon learning to be more verbose).

Note the caveat where 2.17 is stricter about index validation
potentially causing "could not open directory" warnings when git is
upgraded. See the preceding "dir.c: stop ignoring opendir() error in
open_cached_dir()" change.
This caused some mayhem when I upgraded git to a version with this
series at Booking.com, and other users have doubtless enabled the UC
extension and are in for a surprise when they upgrade. Let's give them

Document the bug tested for in my "status: add a failing test showing
a core.untrackedCache bug" and fixed in Duy's "dir.c: fix missing dir
invalidation in untracked code".
Since this is very likely something others will encounter in the
future on older versions, and it's not obvious how to fix it let's
document both that it exists, and how to "fix" it with a one-off
command.
As noted in that commit, even though this bug gets the untracked cache
into a bad state, we have not yet found a case where this is user
visible, and thus it makes sense for these docs to focus on the
symlink case only.

Make the new --prune-tags option work properly when git-fetch is
invoked with a <url> parameter instead of a <remote name>
parameter.
This change is split off from the introduction of --prune-tags due to
the relative complexity of munging the incoming argv, which is easier
to review as a separate change.

Add a --prune-tags option to git-fetch, along with fetch.pruneTags
config option and a -P shorthand (-p is --prune). This allows for
doing any of:
git fetch -p -P
git fetch --prune --prune-tags
git fetch -p -P origin
git fetch --prune --prune-tags origin
Or simply:
git config fetch.prune true &&
git config fetch.pruneTags true &&
git fetch
Instead of the much more verbose:
git fetch --prune origin 'refs/tags/*:refs/tags/*' '+refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/*'
Before this feature it was painful to support the use-case of pulling
from a repo which is having both its branches *and* tags deleted
regularly, and have our local references to reflect upstream.
At work we create deployment tags in the repo for each rollout, and
there's *lots* of those, so they're archived within weeks for
performance reasons.
Without this change it's hard to centrally configure such repos in
/etc/gitconfig (on servers that are only used for working with
them). You need to set fetch.prune=true globally, and then for each
repo:
git -C {} config --replace-all remote.origin.fetch "refs/tags/*:refs/tags/*" "^\+*refs/tags/\*:refs/tags/\*$"
Now I can simply set fetch.pruneTags=true in /etc/gitconfig as well,
and users running "git pull" will automatically get the pruning
semantics I want.
Even though "git remote" has corresponding "prune" and "update
--prune" subcommands I'm intentionally not adding a corresponding
prune-tags or "update --prune --prune-tags" mode to that command.
It's advertised (as noted in my recent "git remote doc: correct
dangerous lies about what prune does") as only modifying remote
tracking references, whereas any --prune-tags option is always going
to modify what from the user's perspective is a local copy of the tag,
since there's no such thing as a remote tracking tag.
Ideally add_prune_tags_to_fetch_refspec() would be something that
would use ALLOC_GROW() to grow the 'fetch` member of the 'remote'
struct. Instead I'm realloc-ing remote->fetch and adding the
tag_refspec to the end.
The reason is that parse_{fetch,push}_refspec which allocate the
refspec (ultimately remote->fetch) struct are called many places that
don't have access to a 'remote' struct. It would be hard to change all
their callsites to be amenable to carry around the bookkeeping
variables required for dynamic allocation.
All the other callers of the API first incrementally construct the
string version of the refspec in remote->fetch_refspec via
add_fetch_refspec(), before finally calling parse_fetch_refspec() via
some variation of remote_get().
It's less of a pain to deal with the one special case that needs to
modify already constructed refspecs than to chase down and change all
the other callsites. The API I'm adding is intentionally not
generalized because if we add more of these we'd probably want to
re-visit how this is done.

The "git remote prune <name>" command uses the same machinery as "git
fetch <name> --prune", and shares all the same caveats, but its
documentation has suggested that it'll just "delete stale
remote-tracking branches under <name>".
This isn't true, and hasn't been true since at least v1.8.5.6 (the
oldest version I could be bothered to test).
E.g. if "refs/tags/*:refs/tags/*" is explicitly set in the refspec of
the remote, it'll delete all local tags <name> doesn't know about.
Instead, briefly give the reader just enough of a hint that this
option might constitute a shotgun aimed at their foot, and point them
to the new PRUNING section in the git-fetch documentation which
explains all the nuances of what this facility does.

When a remote URL is supplied on the command-line the internals of the
fetch are different, in particular the code in get_ref_map(). An
earlier version of the subsequent fetch.pruneTags patch hid a segfault
because the difference wasn't tested for.
Now all the tests are run as both of the variants of:
git fetch
git -c [...] fetch $(git config remote.origin.url) $(git config remote.origin.fetch)
I'm using -c because while the [fetch] config just set by
set_config_tristate will be picked up, the remote.origin.* config
won't override it as intended.
Work around that and turn this into a purely command-line test by
always setting the variables on the command-line, and translate any
setting of remote.origin.X into fetch.X.
The reason for choosing the names "name" and "link" as opposed to
e.g. "named" and "url" is because they're the same length, which makes
the test output easier to read as it will be aligned.
Due to shellscript quoting madness it's not worthwhile to do all of
this within a test_expect_success, but do the parts that can easily be
done there, including the one-time setting of variables that don't
change between runs to be used by subsequent runs in the 'prune_type
setup' test.

Access the "remote" variable passed to the fetch_one() directly rather
than through the gtransport wrapper struct constructed in this
function for other purposes.
This makes the code more readable, as it's now obvious that the remote
struct doesn't somehow get munged by the prepare_transport() function
above, which takes the "remote" struct as an argument and constructs
the "gtransport" struct, containing among other things the "remote"
struct.
A subsequent change will copy this pattern to access a new
remote->prune_tags field, but without the use of the gtransport
variable. It's useful once that change lands to see that the two
pieces of code behave exactly the same.
This pattern of accessing the container struct was added in
737c5a9cde ("fetch: make --prune configurable", 2013-07-13) when this
code was initially introduced.

Trivially refactor an assignment to make a subsequent patch

Stop redundantly NULL-ing the last element of the refs structure,
which was retrieved via calloc(), and is thus guaranteed to be
pre-NULL'd.
This code dates back to b888d61c83 ("Make fetch a builtin",
2007-09-10), where wasn't any reason to do this back then either, it's
just boilerplate left over from when git-fetch was initially
introduced.
The motivation for this change was to make a subsequent change which
would also modify the refs variable smaller, since it won't have to
copy this redundant "NULL the last + 1 item" pattern.
We may not end up keeping that change, but as this pattern is still
pointless, so let's fix it.
