"git -c branch.autosetupmerge=inherit branch new old" makes "new"
to have the same upstream as the "old" branch, instead of marking
"old" itself as its upstream.
* js/branch-track-inherit:
config: require lowercase for branch.*.autosetupmerge
branch: add flags and config to inherit tracking
branch: accept multiple upstream branches for tracking
It can be helpful when creating a new branch to use the existing
tracking configuration from the branch point. However, there is
currently not a method to automatically do so.
Teach git-{branch,checkout,switch} an "inherit" argument to the
"--track" option. When this is set, creating a new branch will cause the
tracking configuration to default to the configuration of the branch
point, if set.
For example, if branch "main" tracks "origin/main", and we run
`git checkout --track=inherit -b feature main`, then branch "feature"
will track "origin/main". Thus, `git status` will show us how far
ahead/behind we are from origin, and `git pull` will pull from origin.
This is particularly useful when creating branches across many
submodules, such as with `git submodule foreach ...` (or if running with
a patch such as [1], which we use at $job), as it avoids having to
manually set tracking info for each submodule.
Since we've added an argument to "--track", also add "--track=direct" as
another way to explicitly get the original "--track" behavior ("--track"
without an argument still works as well).
Finally, teach branch.autoSetupMerge a new "inherit" option. When this
is set, "--track=inherit" becomes the default behavior.

The "optbug()" function was never used outside of parse-options.c, but
was made non-static in 1f275b7c4c (parse-options: export opterr,

Change the "flags" members of "struct option" to refer to their
corresponding "enum" defined earlier in the file.
The benefit of changing this to an enum isn't as great as with some
"enum parse_opt_type" as we'll always check this as a bitfield, so we
can't rely on the compiler checking "case" arms for us. But let's do
it for consistency with the rest of the file.

Use the "enum parse_opt_result" instead of an "int flags" as the
return value of the applicable functions in parse-options.c.
This will help catch future bugs, such as the missing "case" arms in
the two existing users of the API in "blame.c" and "shortlog.c". A
third caller in 309be813c9 (update-index: migrate to parse-options
API, 2010-12-01) was already checking for these.
As can be seen when trying to sort through the deluge of warnings
produced when compiling this with CC=g++ (mostly unrelated to this
change) we're not consistently using "enum parse_opt_result" even now,
i.e. we'll return error() and "return 0;". See f41179f16b
(parse-options: avoid magic return codes, 2019-01-27) for a commit
which started changing some of that.
I'm not doing any more of that exhaustive migration here, and it's
probably not worthwhile past the point of being able to check "enum
parse_opt_result" in switch().

Use the "enum parse_opt_flags" instead of an "int flags" as arguments
to the various functions in parse-options.c.
Even though this is an enum bitfield there's there's a benefit to
doing this when it comes to the wider C ecosystem. E.g. the GNU
debugger (gdb) will helpfully detect and print out meaningful enum
labels in this case. Here's the output before and after when breaking
in "parse_options()" after invoking "git stash show":
Before:
(gdb) p flags
$1 = 9
After:
(gdb) p flags
$1 = (PARSE_OPT_KEEP_DASHDASH | PARSE_OPT_KEEP_UNKNOWN)
Of course as noted in[1] there's a limit to this smartness,
i.e. manually setting it with unrelated enum labels won't be
caught. There are some third-party extensions to do more exhaustive
checking[2], perhaps we'll be able to make use of them sooner than
later.
We've also got prior art using this pattern in the codebase. See
e.g. "enum bloom_filter_computed" added in 312cff5207 (bloom: split
'get_bloom_filter()' in two, 2020-09-16) and the "permitted" enum
added in ce910287e7 (add -p: fix checking of user input, 2020-08-17).

Fix a bad landmine of a bug which has been with us ever since
PARSE_OPT_SHELL_EVAL was added in 47e9cd28f8 (parseopt: wrap
rev-parse --parseopt usage for eval consumption, 2010-06-12).
It's an argument to parse_options() and should therefore be in "enum
parse_opt_flags", but it was added to the per-option "enum
parse_opt_option_flags" by mistake.
Therefore as soon as we'd have an enum member in the former that
reached its value of "1 << 8" we'd run into a seemingly bizarre bug
where that new option would turn on the unrelated PARSE_OPT_SHELL_EVAL
in "git rev-parse --parseopt" by proxy.
I manually checked that no other enum members suffered from such
overlap, by setting the values to non-overlapping values, and making
the relevant codepaths BUG() out if the given value was above/below
the expected (excluding flags=0 in the case of "enum
parse_opt_flags").

As preceding commits have incrementally established all of the --all,
--guides, --config and hidden --config-for-completion options are
mutually exclusive. So let's use OPT_CMDMODE() to parse the
command-line instead, and take advantage of its conflicting options
detection.
This is the first command with a hidden CMDMODE, so let's introduce a
OPT_CMDMODE_F() macro to go along with OPT_CMDMODE().
I think this makes the usage information that we emit slightly worse,
e.g. before we'd emit:
$ git help --all --config
fatal: --config and --all cannot be combined
usage: git help [-a|--all] [--[no-]verbose]]
[[-i|--info] [-m|--man] [-w|--web]] [<command>]
or: git help [-g|--guides]
or: git help [-c|--config]
[...]
$
And now:
$ git help --all --config
error: option `config' is incompatible with --all
$
But improving that is a general topic for parse-options.c improvement,
i.e. we should probably emit the full usage in that case.

As was noted in 1a85b49b87 (parse-options: make OPT_ARGUMENT() more
useful, 2019-03-14) there's only ever been one user of the
OPT_ARGUMENT(), that user was added in 20de316e33 (difftool: allow
running outside Git worktrees with --no-index, 2019-03-14).
The OPT_ARGUMENT() feature itself was added way back in
580d5bffde (parse-options: new option type to treat an option-like
parameter as an argument., 2008-03-02), but as discussed in
1a85b49b87 wasn't used until 20de316e33 in 2019.
Now that the preceding commit has migrated this code over to using
"struct strvec" to manage the "args" member of a "struct
child_process", we can just use that directly instead of relying on
OPT_ARGUMENT.
This has a minor change in behavior in that if we'll pass --no-index
we'll now always pass it as the first argument, before we'd pass it in
whatever position the caller did. Preserving this was the real value
of OPT_ARGUMENT(), but as it turns out we didn't need that either. We
can always inject it as the first argument, the other end will parse
it just the same.
Note that we cannot remove the "out" and "cpidx" members of "struct
parse_opt_ctx_t" added in 580d5bffde, while they were introduced with
OPT_ARGUMENT() we since used them for other things.

preprocess_options() allocates new strings for help messages for
OPTION_ALIAS. Therefore we also need to clean those help messages up
when freeing the returned options.
First introduced in:
7c280589cf (parse-options: teach "git cmd -h" to show alias as alias, 2020-03-16)
The preprocessed options themselves no longer contain any indication
that a given option is/was an alias - therefore we add a new flag to
indicate former aliases. (An alternative approach would be to look back
at the original options to determine which options are aliases - but
that seems like a fragile approach. Or we could even look at the
alias_groups list - which might be less fragile, but would be slower
as it requires nested looping.)
As far as I can tell, parse_options() is only ever used once per
command, and the help messages are small - hence this leak has very
little impact.
This leak was found while running t0001. LSAN output can be found below:
Direct leak of 65 byte(s) in 1 object(s) allocated from:

"Keep it homogeneous across the repository" is in general a
guideline that can be used to converge to a good practice, but
we can be a bit more prescriptive in this case. Just like the
messages we give die(_("...")) are formatted without the final
full stop and without the initial capitalization, most of the
argument help text are already formatted that way, and we want
to encourage that as the house style.

In rebase, one can pass the `--autostash` option to cause the worktree
to be automatically stashed before continuing with the rebase. This
option is missing in merge, however.
Implement the `--autostash` option and corresponding `merge.autoStash`
option in merge which stashes before merging and then pops after.
This option is useful when a developer has some local changes on a topic
branch but they realize that their work depends on another branch.
Previously, they had to run something like
git fetch ...
git stash push
git merge FETCH_HEAD
git stash pop
but now, that is reduced to
git fetch ...
git merge --autostash FETCH_HEAD
When an autostash is generated, it is automatically reapplied to the
worktree only in three explicit situations:
1. An incomplete merge is commit using `git commit`.
2. A merge completes successfully.
3. A merge is aborted using `git merge --abort`.
In all other situations where the merge state is removed using
remove_merge_branch_state() such as aborting a merge via
`git reset --hard`, the autostash is saved into the stash reflog
instead keeping the worktree clean.

"git am --short-current-patch" is a way to show the piece of e-mail
for the stopped step, which is not suitable to directly feed "git
apply" (it is designed to be a good "git am" input). It learned a
new option to show only the patch part.
* pb/am-show-current-patch:
am: support --show-current-patch=diff to retrieve .git/rebase-apply/patch
am: support --show-current-patch=raw as a synonym for--show-current-patch
am: convert "resume" variable to a struct
parse-options: convert "command mode" to a flag
parse-options: add testcases for OPT_CMDMODE()
OPTION_CMDMODE is essentially OPTION_SET_INT plus an extra check that
the variable had not set before. In order to allow custom processing
of the option, for example a "command mode" option that also has an
argument, it would be nice to use OPTION_CALLBACK and not have to rewrite
the extra check on incompatible options. In other words, making the
processing of the option orthogonal to the "only one of these" behavior
provided by OPTION_CMDMODE.
Add a new flag that takes care of the check, and modify OPT_CMDMODE to
use it together with OPTION_SET_INT. The new flag still requires that the
option value points to an int, but any OPTION_* value can be specified as
long as it does not require a non-int type for opt->value.

Support for various porcelain commands will arrive via additional
patches.
`--pathspec-from-file` solves the problem of commandline length limit
for UIs built on top of git. Plumbing commands are not always a good
fit, for two major reasons:
1) Some UIs show executed commands to user. In this case, porcelain
commands are expected. One reason for that is letting user learn git
commands by clicking UI buttons. The other reason is letting user
study the history of commands in case of any unexpected results. Both
of these will lose most of their value if UI uses combinations of
arcane plumbing commands.
2) Some UIs have started and grown with porcelain commands. Replacing
existing logic with plumbing commands could be cumbersome and prone
to various new problems.
`--pathspec-from-file` will behave very close to pathspec passed in
commandline args, so that switching from one to another is simple.
`--pathspec-from-file` will read either a specified file or `stdin`
(when file is exactly "-"). Reading from file is a good way to avoid
competing for `stdin`, and also gives some extra flexibility.
`--pathspec-file-nul` switch mirrors `-z` already used in various
places. Some porcelain commands, such as `git commit`, already use
`-z`, therefore it needed a new unambiguous name.
New options do not have shorthands to avoid shorthand conflicts. It is
not expected that they will be typed in console.

Change the option parsing machinery so that e.g. "clone --recurs ..."
doesn't error out because "clone" understands both "--recursive" and
"--recurse-submodules" to mean the same thing.
Initially "clone" just understood --recursive until the
--recurses-submodules alias was added in ccdd3da652 ("clone: Add the
--recurse-submodules option as alias for --recursive",
2010-11-04). Since bb62e0a99f ("clone: teach --recurse-submodules to
optionally take a pathspec", 2017-03-17) the longer form has been
promoted to the default.
But due to the way the options parsing machinery works this resulted
in the rather absurd situation of:
$ git clone --recurs [...]
error: ambiguous option: recurs (could be --recursive or --recurse-submodules)
Add OPT_ALIAS() to express this link between two or more options and use
it in git-clone. Multiple aliases of an option could be written as
OPT_ALIAS(0, "alias1", "original-name"),
OPT_ALIAS(0, "alias2", "original-name"),
...
The current implementation is not exactly optimal in this case. But we
can optimize it when it becomes a problem. So far we don't even have two
aliases of any option.

of what checkout does. There will be two new commands, one is about
switching branches, detaching HEAD... one about checking out
paths. These share the a subset of command line options. The rest of
command line options are separate.

The command line parser of "git commit-tree" has been rewritten to
use the parse-options API.
* br/commit-tree-parseopt:
commit-tree: utilize parse-options api
`OPT_ARGUMENT()` is intended to keep the specified long option in `argv`
and not to do anything else.
However, it would make a lot of sense for the caller to know whether
this option was seen at all or not. For example, we want to teach `git
difftool` to work outside of any Git worktree, but only when
`--no-index` was specified.
Note: nothing in Git uses OPT_ARGUMENT(). Even worse, looking through
the commit history, one can easily see that nothing even
ever used it, apart from the regression test.
So not only do we make `OPT_ARGUMENT()` more useful, we are also about
to introduce its first real user!

Rather than parse options manually, which is both difficult to
read and error prone, parse options supplied to commit-tree
using the parse-options api.
It was discovered that the --no-gpg-sign option was documented
but not implemented in commit 70ddbd7767 (commit-tree: add missing
--gpg-sign flag, 2019-01-19), and the existing implementation
would attempt to translate the option as a tree oid. It was also
suggested earlier in commit 55ca3f99ae (commit-tree: add and document
--no-gpg-sign, 2013-12-13) that commit-tree should be migrated to
utilize the parse-options api, which could help prevent mistakes
like this in the future. Hence this change.
Also update the documentation to better describe that mixing
`-m` and `-F` options will correctly compose commit log messages in the
order in which the options are given.
In the process, mark various strings for translation.

OPTION_CALLBACK is much simpler/safer to use, but parse_opt_cb does
not allow access to parse_opt_ctx_t, which sometimes is useful
(e.g. to obtain the prefix).
Extending parse_opt_cb to take parse_opt_cb could result in a lot of
changes. Instead let's just allow ll_callback to be used with
OPTION_CALLBACK. The user will have to be careful, not to change
anything in ctx, or return wrong result code. But that's the price for
ll_callback.

Give names to these magic negative numbers. Make parse_opt_ll_cb
return an enum to make clear it can actually control parse_options()
with different return values (parse_opt_cb can too, but nobody needs
it).

Lowlevel callbacks have different function signatures. Add a new field
in 'struct option' with the right type for lowlevel callbacks.

This is needed for diff_opt_parse() where we do
value = (value & ~mask) | some_more;

This is to help reimplement diff_opt_parse() using parse_options().
The behavior of parse_options() is changed to be the same as the
other:
- no argv0 in argv[], everything can be processed
- argv[] must not be updated, it's the caller's job to do that
- return the number of arguments processed
- leave all unknown options / non-options alone (this one can already
be achieved with PARSE_OPT_KEEP_UNKNOWN and
PARSE_OPT_STOP_AT_NON_OPTION)
This mode is NOT supposed to stay here for long. It's to help
converting diff/rev option parsing. Once that work is over and we can
just use parse_options() throughout the code base, this will be
deleted.
