Since b7cc53e9 (tag.c: use 'ref-filter' APIs, 2015-07-11),
git-tag has started showing tags with ambiguous names (i.e.,
when both "heads/foo" and "tags/foo" exists) as "tags/foo"
instead of just "foo". This is both:
- pointless; the output of "git tag" includes only
refs/tags, so we know that "foo" means the one in
"refs/tags".
and
- ambiguous; in the original output, we know that the line
"foo" means that "refs/tags/foo" exists. In the new
output, it is unclear whether we mean "refs/tags/foo" or
"refs/tags/tags/foo".
The reason this happens is that commit b7cc53e9 switched
git-tag to use ref-filter's "%(refname:short)" output
formatting, which was adapted from for-each-ref. This more
general code does not know that we care only about tags, and
uses shorten_unambiguous_ref to get the short-name. We need
to tell it that we care only about "refs/tags/", and it
should shorten with respect to that value.
In theory, the ref-filter code could figure this out by us
passing FILTER_REFS_TAGS. But there are two complications
there:
1. The handling of refname:short is deep in formatting
code that does not even have our ref_filter struct, let
alone the arguments to the filter_ref struct.
2. In git v2.7.0, we expose the formatting language to the
user. If we follow this path, it will mean that
"%(refname:short)" behaves differently for "tag" versus
"for-each-ref" (including "for-each-ref refs/tags/"),
which can lead to confusion.
Instead, let's add a new modifier to the formatting
language, "strip", to remove a specific set of prefix
components. This fixes "git tag", and lets users invoke the
same behavior from their own custom formats (for "tag" or
"for-each-ref") while leaving ":short" with its same
consistent meaning in all places.
We introduce a test in t7004 for "git tag", which fails
without this patch. We also add a similar test in t3203 for
"git branch", which does not actually fail. But since it is
likely that "branch" will eventually use the same formatting
code, the test helps defend against future regressions.

Sometimes it's useful to know the main branch of a git repository
without actually downloading the repository. This can be done by
looking at the symrefs stored in the remote repository. Currently git
doesn't provide a simple way to show the symrefs stored on the remote
repository, even though the information is available. Add a --symref
command line argument to the ls-remote command, which shows the symrefs
in the remote repository.
While there, replace a literal tab in the format string with \t to make
it more obvious to the reader.

Git tries to avoid creating a commit with an empty author
name or email. However, commits created by older, less
strict versions of git may still be in the history. There's
not much point in issuing a warning to stderr for an empty
author. The user can't do anything about it now, and we are
better off to simply include it in the shortlog output as an
empty name/email, and let the caller process it however they
see fit.
Older versions of shortlog differentiated between "author
header not present" (which complained) and "author
name/email are blank" (which included the empty ident in the
output). But since switching to format_commit_message, we
complain to stderr about either case (linux.git has a blank
author deep in its history which triggers this).
We could try to restore the older behavior (complaining only
about the missing header), but in retrospect, there's not
much point in differentiating these cases. A missing
author header is bogus, but as for the "blank" case, the
only useful behavior is to add it to the "empty name"
collection.

When gathering the author and oneline subject for each
commit, we hand-parse the commit headers to find the
"author" line, and then continue past to the blank line at
the end of the header.
We can replace this tricky hand-parsing by simply asking the
pretty-printer for the relevant items. This also decouples
the author and oneline parsing, opening up some new
optimizations in further commits.
One reason to avoid the pretty-printer is that it might be
less efficient than hand-parsing. However, I measured no
slowdown at all running "git shortlog -ns HEAD" on
linux.git.
As a bonus, we also fix a memory leak in the (uncommon) case
that the author field is blank.

The original git-shortlog could read both the normal "git

it was converted to C by b8ec592 (Build in shortlog,
2006-10-22), the trailing colon became mandatory, and we no
longer matched the raw output.
Given the amount of intervening time without any bug
reports, it's probable that nobody cares. But it's
relatively easy to fix, and the end result is hopefully more
readable than the original.
Note that this no longer matches "author: ", which we did
before, but that has never been a format generated by git.

When working in a cross-platform environment, a user may want to
check if text files are stored normalized in the repository and
if .gitattributes are set appropriately.
Make it possible to let Git show the line endings in the index and
in the working tree and the effective text/eol attributes.
The end of line ("eolinfo") are shown like this:
"-text" binary (or with bare CR) file
"none" text file without any EOL
"lf" text file with LF
"crlf" text file with CRLF
"mixed" text file with mixed line endings.
The effective text/eol attribute is one of these:
"", "-text", "text", "text=auto", "text eol=lf", "text eol=crlf"
git ls-files --eol gives an output like this:
i/none w/none attr/text=auto t/t5100/empty
i/-text w/-text attr/-text t/test-binary-2.png
i/lf w/lf attr/text eol=lf t/t5100/rfc2047-info-0007
i/lf w/crlf attr/text eol=crlf doit.bat
i/mixed w/mixed attr/ locale/XX.po
to show what eol convention is used in the data in the index ('i'),
and in the working tree ('w'), and what attribute is in effect,
for each path that is shown.

The strbuf_getline() interface allows a byte other than LF or NUL as
the line terminator, but this is only because I wrote these
codepaths anticipating that there might be a value other than NUL
and LF that could be useful when I introduced line_termination long
time ago. No useful caller that uses other value has emerged.
By now, it is clear that the interface is overly broad without a
good reason. Many codepaths have hardcoded preference to read
either LF terminated or NUL terminated records from their input, and
then call strbuf_getline() with LF or NUL as the third parameter.
This step introduces two thin wrappers around strbuf_getline(),
namely, strbuf_getline_lf() and strbuf_getline_nul(), and
mechanically rewrites these call sites to call either one of
them. The changes contained in this patch are:
* introduction of these two functions in strbuf.[ch]
* mechanical conversion of all callers to strbuf_getline() with
either '\n' or '\0' as the third parameter to instead call the
respective thin wrapper.
After this step, output from "git grep 'strbuf_getline('" would
become a lot smaller. An interim goal of this series is to make
this an empty set, so that we can have strbuf_getline_crlf() take
over the shorter name strbuf_getline().

Often we read "text" files that are supplied by the end user
(e.g. commit log message that was edited with $GIT_EDITOR upon 'git
commit -e'), and in some environments lines in a text file are
terminated with CRLF. Existing strbuf_getline() knows to read a
single line and then strip the terminating byte from the result, but
it is handy to have a version that is more tailored for a "text"
input that takes both '\n' and '\r\n' as line terminator (aka
<newline> in POSIX lingo) and returns the body of the line after
stripping <newline>.
Recently reimplemented "git am" uses such a function implemented
privately; move it to strbuf.[ch] and make it available for others.
Note that we do not blindly replace calls to strbuf_getline() that
uses LF as the line terminator with calls to strbuf_getline_crlf()
and this is very much deliberate. Some callers may want to treat an
incoming line that ends with CR (and terminated with LF) to have a
payload that includes the final CR, and such a blind replacement
will result in misconversion when done without code audit.
