While 'git version' is probably the least complex git command,
it is a non-experimental user-facing builtin command. As such
it should have a help page.
Both `git help` and `git version` can be called as options
(`--help`/`--version`) that internally get converted to the
corresponding command. Add a small paragraph to
Documentation/git.txt describing how these two options
interact with each other and link to this help page for the
sub-options that `--version` can take. Well, currently there
is only one sub-option, but that could potentially increase
in future versions of Git.

The t5562 script occasionally takes 60 extra seconds to complete due to
a race condition in the invoke-with-content-length.pl helper.
The way it's supposed to work is this:
- we set up a SIGCLD handler
- we kick off http-backend and write to it with a set content-length,
but _don't_ close the pipe
- we sleep for 60 seconds, assuming that SIGCLD from http-backend
finishing will interrupt us
- after the sleep finishes (whetherby 60 seconds or because it was
interrupted by the signal), we check a flag to see if our SIGCLD
handler was called. If not, then we complain.
This usually completes immediately, because the signal interrupts our
sleep. But very occasionally the child process dies _before_ we hit the
sleep, so we don't realize it. The test still completes successfully
(because our $exited flag is set), but it takes an extra 60 seconds.
There's no way to check the flag and sleep atomically. So the best we
can do with this approach is to sleep in smaller chunks (say, 1 second)
and check the flag incrementally. Then we waste a maximum of 1 second if
we lose the race. This was proposed in:
https://lore.kernel.org/git/20190218205028.32486-1-max@max630.net/
and it does work. But we can do better.
Instead of blocking on sleep and waiting for the child signal to
interrupt us, we can block on the child exiting and set an alarm signal
to trigger the timeout.
This lets us exit the script immediately when the child behaves (with no
race possible), and wait a maximum of 60 seconds when it doesn't.
Note one small subtlety: perl is very willing to restart the waitpid()
call after the alarm is delivered, even if we've thrown an exception via
die. "perldoc -f alarm" claims you can get around this with an eval/die
combo (and even has some example code), but it doesn't seem to work for
me with waitpid(); instead, we continue waiting until the child exits.
So instead, we'll instruct the child process to exit in the alarm
handler itself. In the original code this was done by calling
close($out). That would continue to work, since our child is always
http-backend, which should exit when its stdin closes. But we can be
even more robust against a hung or confused child by sending a KILL
signal, which should terminate it immediately.

Back when a1be47e4 (hash-object: fix buffer reuse with --path in a
subdirectory, 2017-03-20) was written, the prefix_filename() helper
used a static piece of memory to the caller, making the caller
responsible for copying it, if it wants to keep it across another
call to the same function. Two callers of the prefix_filename() in
hash-object were made to xstrdup() the value obtained from it.
But in the same series, when e4da43b1 (prefix_filename: return newly
allocated string, 2017-03-20) changed the rule to gave the caller
possession of the memory, we forgot to revert one of the xstrdup()
changes, allowing the returned value to leak.

libexecdir, 2007-11-28) when commands such as "git-add" lived in the
bin directory, instead of the git exec directory.
This notice helped someone incorrectly installing version v1.6.0 and
later into a directory built for a pre-v1.6.0 git version.
We're now long past the point where anyone who'd be helped by this
warning is likely to be doing that, so let's just remove this check
and warning to simplify the Makefile.

In make_remote(), we store the return value of hashmap_put() and check
it using assert(), but don't otherwise use it. If Git is compiled with
NDEBUG, then the assert() becomes a noop, and nobody looks at the
variable at all. This causes some compilers to produce warnings.
Let's switch it instead to a BUG(). This accomplishes the same thing,
but is always compiled in (and we don't have to worry about the cost;
the check is cheap, and this is not a hot code path).

Remove the trailing dot from the warning we emit about gc.log. It's
common for various terminal UX's to allow the user to select "words",
and by including the trailing dot a user wanting to select the path to
gc.log will need to manually remove the trailing dot.
Such a user would also probably need to adjust the path if it e.g. had
spaces in it, but this should address this very common case.

In the free_mailmap_entry() code added in 0925ce4d49 (Add map_user()
and clear_mailmap() to mailmap, 2009-02-08) the intent was clearly to
clear the "me" structure, but while we freed parts of the
mailmap_entry structure, we didn't free the structure itself. The same
goes for the "mailmap_info" structure.
This brings the number of SANITIZE=leak failures in t4203-mailmap.sh
down from 50 to 49. Not really progress as far as the number of
failures is concerned, but as far as I can tell this fixes all leaks
in mailmap.c itself. There's still users of it such as builtin/log.c
that call read_mailmap() without a clear_mailmap(), but that's on
them.

Fix a memory leak in a2ba162cda (object-info: support for retrieving
object info, 2021-04-20) which appears to have been based on a
misunderstanding of how the pkt-line.c API works. There is no need to
strdup() input to packet_writer_write(), it's just a printf()-like
format function.
This fixes a potentially large memory leak, since the number of OID
lines the "object-info" call can be arbitrarily large (or a small one
if the request is small).
This makes t5701-git-serve.sh pass again under SANITIZE=leak, as it
did before a2ba162cda.

If the flags O_CREAT and O_EXCL are both given then open(2) is supposed
to create the file and error out if it already exists. The error
message in that case looks like this:
fatal: could not open 'foo' for writing: File exists
Without further context this is confusing: Why should the existence of
the file pose a problem? Isn't that a requirement for writing to it?
Add a more specific error message for that case to tell the user that we
actually don't expect the file to preexist, so the example becomes:
fatal: unable to create 'foo': File exists

In t6300, some tests are guarded behind some prerequisites.
Thus, objects created by those tests ain't available if those
prerequisites are unsatistified. Attempting to run "cat-file"
on those objects will run into failure.
In fact, running t6300 in an environment without gpg(1),
we'll see those warnings:
fatal: Not a valid object name refs/tags/signed-empty
fatal: Not a valid object name refs/tags/signed-short
fatal: Not a valid object name refs/tags/signed-long
Let's put those commands into the real tests, in order to:
* skip their execution if prerequisites aren't satistified.
* check their exit status code
The expected value for objects with type: commit needs to be
computed outside the test because we can't rely on "$3" there.
Furthermore, to prevent the accidental usage of that computed
expected value, BUG out on unknown object's type.
