If a user somehow creates a directory with an asterisk (*) or backslash
(\), then the "git sparse-checkout set" command will struggle to provide
the correct pattern in the sparse-checkout file. When not in cone mode,
the provided pattern is written directly into the sparse-checkout file.
However, in cone mode we expect a list of paths to directories and then
we convert those into patterns.
Even more specifically, the goal is to always allow the following from
the root of a repo:
git ls-tree --name-only -d HEAD | git sparse-checkout set --stdin
The ls-tree command provides directory names with an unescaped asterisk.
It also quotes the directories that contain an escaped backslash. We
must remove these quotes, then keep the escaped backslashes.
Use unquote_c_style() when parsing lines from stdin. Command-line
arguments will be parsed as-is, assuming the user can do the correct
level of escaping from their environment to match the exact directory
names.

In cone mode, the sparse-checkout feature uses hashset containment
queries to match paths. Make this algorithm respect escaped asterisk
(*) and backslash (\) characters.
Create dup_and_filter_pattern() method to convert a pattern by

In cone mode, the sparse-checkout commmand will write patterns that
allow faster pattern matching. This matching only works if the patterns
in the sparse-checkout file are those written by that command. Users
can edit the sparse-checkout file and create patterns that cause the
cone mode matching to fail.
The cone mode patterns may end in "/*" but otherwise an un-escaped
asterisk or other glob character is invalid. Add checks to disable
cone mode when seeing these values.
A later change will properly handle escaped globs.

We often skip an optional prefix in a string with a hardcoded
constant, e.g.
if (starts_with(string, "prefix"))
string += 6;
which is less error prone when written
skip_prefix(string, "prefix", &string);
Note that this changes a few error messages from "git reflog expire
--expire=nonsense.timestamp", which used to complain by saying
'--expire=nonsense.timestamp' is not a valid timestamp
but with this change, we say
'nonsense.timestamp' is not a valid timestamp
which is more technically correct (the string with --expire= as
a prefix obviously cannot be a valid timestamp, but the error is
about the part of the input without that prefix).

In f237c8b6fe (commit-graph: implement git-commit-graph write,
2018-04-02) the test t5318.3 was introduced to ensure that calling 'git
commit-graph write' in a repository with no packfiles does not write any
commit-graph file(s).
To exercise more paths in 'builtin/commit-graph.c', this test passes
'--object-dir' to 'git commit-graph write', but the given argument
refers to the working copy, not the object directory.
Since the commit-graph sub-commands currently swallow these errors, this
does not result in a test failure. But, it is only lucky that the test
ends with no commit-graphs, since there were none to begin with.
In preparation for a future commit where an '--object-dir' argument that
does not match a known object directory will print out a failure, let's
fix the test to still use '--object-dir', but pass the correct location
to the object store instead of '.'.

We parse diff.wsErrorHighlight in git_diff_ui_config(), meaning that it
doesn't take effect for plumbing commands, only for porcelains like
git-diff itself. This is mildly annoying as it means scripts like
add--interactive, which produce a user-visible diff with color, don't
respect the option.
We could teach that script to parse the config and pass it along as
--ws-error-highlight to the diff plumbing. But there's a simpler
solution.
It should be reasonably safe for plumbing to respect this option, as it
only kicks in when color is otherwise enabled. And anybody parsing
colorized output must already deal with the fact that color.diff.* may
change the exact output they see; those options have been part of
git_diff_basic_config() since its inception in 9a1805a872 (add a "basic"
diff config callback, 2008-01-04).
So we can just move it to the "basic" config, which fixes
add--interactive, along with any other script in the same boat, with a
very low risk of hurting any plumbing users.

We heap-allocate our arrays of name_entry structs, etc, with one entry
per tree we're asked to traverse. The code does a raw multiplication in
the xmalloc() call, which I find when auditing for integer overflows
during allocation.
We could "fix" this by using ALLOC_ARRAY() instead. But as it turns out,
the maximum size of these arrays is limited at compile time:
- merge_trees() always passes in 3 trees
- unpack_trees() and its brethren never pass in more than
MAX_UNPACK_TREES
So we can simplify even further by just using a stack array and bounding
it with MAX_UNPACK_TREES. There should be no concern with overflowing
the stack, since MAX_UNPACK_TREES is only 8 and the structs themselves
are small.
Note that since we're replacing xcalloc(), we have to move one of the
NULL initializations into a loop.

We compute the length of an array of object_id's with a raw
multiplication. In theory this could trigger an integer overflow which
would cause an under-allocation (and eventually an out of bounds write).
I doubt this can be triggered in practice, since you'd need to feed it
an enormous number of target objects, which would typically come from
the ref advertisement and be using proportional memory. And even on
64-bit systems, where "int" is much smaller than "size_t", that should
hold: even though "targets" is an int, the multiplication will be done
as a size_t because of the use of sizeof().
But we can easily fix it by using ALLOC_ARRAY(), which uses st_mult()
under the hood.

There are several error messages in get_oid() and its children that are
clearly intended for humans, but aren't marked for translation. E.g.:
$ git show :1:foo
fatal: Path 'foo' is in the index, but not at stage 1.
Did you mean ':0:foo'?
Let's mark these for translation. While we're at it, let's switch the
style to be more like our usual error messages: start with a lowercase
letter and omit a period at the end of the line.
This does mean that multi-line messages like the one above don't have
any punctuation between the two sentences. I solved that by adding a
"hint" marker like we'd see from advise(). So the result is:
$ git show :1:foo
fatal: path 'foo' is in the index, but not at stage 1
hint: Did you mean ':0:foo'?

If a filter is specified, we do not need a full connectivity check on
the contents of the packfile we just fetched; we only need to check that
the objects referenced are promisor objects.
This significantly speeds up fetches into repositories that have many

objects are enumerated (to mark them UNINTERESTING), and that takes a
