88a9f72fe0 t7201.24: Add refspec to keep --track working
We are formalizing a requirement that any remote-tracking branch to be used
as an upstream (i.e. as an argument to --track), _must_ "belong" to a
configured remote by being matched by the "dst" side of a fetch refspec.

Without this patch, this test would start failing when the new behavior is
introduced.

9c9cd39a0c t3200.39: tracking setup should fail if there is no matching refspec.
We are formalizing a requirement that any remote-tracking branch to be used
as an upstream (i.e. as an argument to --track), _must_ "belong" to a
configured remote by being matched by the "dst" side of a fetch refspec.

This patch encodes the new expected behavior of this test, and marks the
test with "test_expect_failure" in anticipation of a following patch to
introduce the new behavior.

fa83a33b22 checkout: Use remote refspecs when DWIMming tracking branches
The DWIM mode of checkout allows you to run "git checkout foo" when there
is no existing local ref or path called "foo", and there is exactly _one_
remote with a remote-tracking branch called "foo". Git will automatically
create a new local branch called "foo" using the remote-tracking "foo" as
its starting point and configured upstream.

For example, consider the following unconventional (but perfectly valid)
remote setup:

	[remote "origin"]
		fetch = refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/*
	[remote "frotz"]
		fetch = refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/frotz/nitfol/*

Case 1: Assume both "origin" and "frotz" have remote-tracking branches called
"foo", at "refs/remotes/origin/foo" and "refs/remotes/frotz/nitfol/foo"
respectively. In this case "git checkout foo" should fail, because there is
more than one remote with a "foo" branch.

Case 2: Assume only "frotz" have a remote-tracking branch called "foo". In
this case "git checkout foo" should succeed, and create a local branch "foo"
from "refs/remotes/frotz/nitfol/foo", using remote branch "foo" from "frotz"
as its upstream.

The current code hardcodes the assumption that all remote-tracking branches
must match the "refs/remotes/$remote/*" pattern (which is true for remotes
with "conventional" refspecs, but not true for the "frotz" remote above).
When running "git checkout foo", the current code looks for exactly one ref
matching "refs/remotes/*/foo", hence in the above example, it fails to find
"refs/remotes/frotz/nitfol/foo", which causes it to fail both case #1 and #2.

The better way to handle the above example is to actually study the fetch
refspecs to deduce the candidate remote-tracking branches for "foo"; i.e.
assume "foo" is a remote branch being fetched, and then map "refs/heads/foo"
through the refspecs in order to get the corresponding remote-tracking
branches "refs/remotes/origin/foo" and "refs/remotes/frotz/nitfol/foo".
Finally we check which of these happens to exist in the local repo, and
if there is exactly one, we have an unambiguous match for "git checkout foo",
and may proceed.

This fixes most of the failing tests introduced in the previous patch.

ec2764ee8f t2024: Show failure to use refspec when DWIMming remote branch names
When using "git checkout foo" to DWIM the creation of local "foo" from some
existing upstream "foo", we assume conventional refspecs as created by "git
clone" or "git remote add", and fail to work correctly if the current
refspecs do not follow the conventional "refs/remotes/$remote/*" pattern.

38b074de80 t/test-lib.sh: fix TRASH_DIRECTORY handling
After the location of $TRASH_DIRECTORY is adjusted by
$TEST_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY, we go on to use the $test variable to make the
trash directory and cd into it.  This means that when
$TEST_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY is not "." and an absolute --root has not been
specified, we do not remove the trash directory once the tests are
complete (remove_trash is set to $TRASH_DIRECTORY).

Fix this by always referring to the trash directory as $TRASH_DIRECTORY.

7d13e0a3af completion: get rid of compgen
The functionality we use from compgen is not much, we can do the same
manually, with drastic improvements in speed, especially when dealing
with only a few words.

This patch also has the sideffect that brekage reported by Jeroen Meijer
and SZEDER Gábor gets fixed because we no longer expand the resulting
words.

Here are some numbers filtering N amount of words:

  == 1 ==
  original: 0.002s
  new: 0.000s
  == 10 ==
  original: 0.002s
  new: 0.000s
  == 100 ==
  original: 0.003s
  new: 0.002s
  == 1000 ==
  original: 0.012s
  new: 0.011s
  == 10000 ==
  original: 0.056s
  new: 0.066s
  == 100000 ==
  original: 2.669s
  new: 0.622s

If the results are not narrowed:

  == 1 ==
  original: 0.002s
  new: 0.000s
  == 10 ==
  original: 0.002s
  new: 0.001s
  == 100 ==
  original: 0.004s
  new: 0.004s
  == 1000 ==
  original: 0.020s
  new: 0.015s
  == 10000 ==
  original: 0.101s
  new: 0.355s
  == 100000 ==
  original: 2.850s
  new: 31.941s

So, unless 'git checkout <tab>' usually gives you more than 10000
results, you'll get an improvement :)

Other possible solutions perform better after 1000 words, but worst if
less than that:

  COMPREPLY=($(awk -v cur="$3" -v pre="$2" -v suf="$4"
	'$0 ~ cur { print pre$0suf }' <<< "$1" ))

  COMPREPLY=($(printf -- "$2%s$4\n" $1 | grep "^$2$3"))

consisted of an object name only. This was to allow bundling a

already called rtrim() to remove that whitespace.

As a workaround, only check for SP when the line has more than 40

session.

* mm/status-during-revert:
  status: show commit sha1 in "You are currently reverting" message

88dccb6c98 Merge branch 'jk/set-upstream-error-cases'
The handing by "git branch --set-upstream-to" against various forms
of errorneous inputs were suboptimal.

* jk/set-upstream-error-cases:
  branch: give advice when tracking start-point is missing
  branch: mention start_name in set-upstream error messages
  branch: improve error message for missing --set-upstream-to ref
  branch: factor out "upstream is not a branch" error messages
  t3200: test --set-upstream-to with bogus refs

9a11f13d9e Merge branch 'jk/filter-branch-come-back-to-original'
When used with "-d temporary-directory" option, "git filter-branch"
failed to come back to the original working tree to perform the
final clean-up procedure.

* jk/filter-branch-come-back-to-original:
  filter-branch: return to original dir after filtering

2a4c26076c format-patch: add format.coverLetter configuration variable
Also, add a new option: 'auto', so if there's more than one patch, the
cover letter is generated, otherwise it's not.

80d35ca0aa format-patch: improve head calculation for cover-letter
If we do it after the revision traversal we can be sure that this is
indeed a commit that will be processed (i.e. not a merge) and it's the
top most one (thus removing the NEEDSWORK comment, at least we show the
same as 'git diff --stat' output that appears in the cover-letter).

While we are at it, since we know there's nothing to generate, exit
sooner in all cases, like --cover-letter currently does.

Also, if there's nothing to generate and cover-letter is specified, a
different code-path might be triggered that is not currently covered in
the test-case, so add a test for it.

9927ebed19 fmt-merge-msg: respect core.commentchar in people credits
Commit eff80a9 (Allow custom "comment char") introduced a custom
comment character for commit messages but forgot to use it in
people credits which can be a part of a commit message.

With this commit, the custom comment character is also used
in people credits.
