Although the heuristics work well, they are still best-guesses and

The --chain-lint option detects broken &&-chains by forcing the test to
exit early (as the very first step) with a sentinel value. If that
sentinel is the test's overall exit code, then the &&-chain is intact;
if not, then the chain is broken. Unfortunately, this detection does not
extend to &&-chains within subshells even when the subshell itself is
properly linked into the outer &&-chain.
Address this shortcoming by feeding the body of the test to a
lightweight "linter" which can peer inside subshells and identify broken
&&-chains by pure textual inspection. Although the linter does not
actually parse shell scripts, it has enough knowledge of shell syntax to
reliably deal with formatting style variations (as evolved over the
years) and to avoid being fooled by non-shell content (such as inside
here-docs and multi-line strings). It recognizes modern subshell
formatting:
statement1 &&
(
statement2 &&
statement3
) &&
statement4
as well as old-style:
statement1 &&
(statement2 &&
statement3) &&
statement4
Heuristics are employed to properly identify the extent of a subshell
formatted in the old-style since a number of legitimate constructs may
superficially appear to close the subshell even though they don't. For
example, it understands that neither "x=$(command)" nor "case $x in *)"
end a subshell, despite the ")" at the end of line.
Due to limitations of the tool used ('sed') and its inherent
line-by-line processing, only subshells one level deep are handled, as
well as one-liner subshells one level below that. Subshells deeper than
that or multi-line subshells at level two are passed through as-is, thus
&&-chains in their bodies are not checked.

One-shot environment variable assignments, such as 'FOO' in
"FOO=bar cmd", exist only during the invocation of 'cmd'. However, if
'cmd' happens to be a shell function, then 'FOO' is assigned in the
executing shell itself, and that assignment remains until the process
exits (unless explicitly unset). Since this side-effect of
"FOO=bar shell_func" is unlikely to be intentional, detect and report
such usage.
To distinguish shell functions from other commands, perform a pre-scan
of shell scripts named as input, gleaning a list of function names by
recognizing lines of the form (loosely matching whitespace):
shell_func () {
and later report suspect lines of the form (loosely matching quoted
values):
FOO=bar [BAR=foo ...] shell_func
Also take care to stitch together incomplete lines (those ending with
"\") since suspect invocations may be split over multiple lines:
FOO=bar BAR=foo \
shell_func

Error messages emitted by this linting script are long and noisy,
consisting of several sections:
<test-script>:<line#>: error: <explanation>: <failed-shell-text>
The line of failed shell text, usually coming from within a test body,
is often indented by one or two TABs, with the result that the actual
(important) text is separated from <explanation> by a good deal of empty
space. This can make for a difficult read, especially on typical
80-column terminals.
Make the messages more compact and perhaps a bit easier to digest by
folding out the leading whitespace from <failed-shell-text>.

Unlike "FOO=bar cmd" one-shot environment variable assignments
which exist only for the invocation of 'cmd', those assigned by
"FOO=bar shell_func" exist within the running shell and continue to
do so until the process exits (or are explicitly unset). It is
unlikely that this behavior was intended by the test author.
In these particular tests, the "FOO=bar shell_func" invocations are
already in subshells, so the assignments don't last too long, don't
appear to harm subsequent commands in the same subshells, and don't
affect other tests in the same scripts, however, the usage is
nevertheless misleading and poor practice, so fix the tests to assign
and export the environment variables in the usual fashion.

Introduce a new negotiation algorithm used during fetch that skips
commits in an effort to find common ancestors faster. The skips grow
similarly to the Fibonacci sequence as the commit walk proceeds further
away from the tips. The skips may cause unnecessary commits to be
included in the packfile, but the negotiation step typically ends more
quickly.
Usage of this algorithm is guarded behind the configuration flag
fetch.negotiationAlgorithm.

This test has been dysfunctional since it was added by 619acfc78c
(submodule add: extend force flag to add existing repos, 2016-10-06),
however, two problems early in the test went unnoticed due to a broken
&&-chain later in the test.
First, it tries configuring the submodule with repository "bogus-url",
however, "git submodule add" insists that the repository be either an
absolute URL or a relative pathname requiring prefix "./" or "../" (this
is true even with --force), but "bogus-url" does not meet those
criteria, thus the command fails.
Second, it then tries configuring a submodule with a path which is
.gitignore'd, which is disallowed. This restriction can be overridden
with --force, but the test neglects to use that option.
Fix both problems, as well as the broken &&-chain behind which they hid.

Most of our code has been converted to use struct object_id for object
IDs. However, there are some places that still have not, and there are
a variety of places that compare equivalently sized hashes that are not
object IDs. All of these hashes are artifacts of the internal hash
algorithm in use, and when we switch to NewHash for object storage, all
of these uses will also switch.
Update the hashcpy, hashclr, and hashcmp functions to use the_hash_algo,
since they are used in a variety of places to copy and manipulate
buffers that need to move data into or out of struct object_id. This
has the effect of making the corresponding oid* functions use
the_hash_algo as well.

deref_tag() prints a warning if the object that a tag refers to does not
exist. However, when a partial clone has an annotated tag from its
promisor remote, but not the object that it refers to, printing a
warning on such a tag is incorrect.
This occurs, for example, when the checkout that happens after a partial
clone causes some objects to be fetched - and as part of the fetch, all
local refs are read. The test included in this patch demonstrates this
situation.
Therefore, do not print a warning in this case.
