Simplify the test added in 9466e3809d (blame: enable funcname blaming
with userdiff driver, 2020-11-01) to use the --author support recently
added in 999cfc4f45 (test-lib functions: add --author support to
test_commit, 2021-01-12).
We also did not need the full fortran-external-function content. Let's
cut it down to just the important parts.
I'm modifying it to demonstrate that the fortran-specific userdiff
function is in effect by adding "DO NOT MATCH ..." and "AS THE ..."
lines surrounding the "RIGHT" one.
This is to check that we're using the userdiff "fortran" driver, as
opposed to the default driver which would match on those lines as part
of the general heuristic of matching a line that doesn't begin with
whitespace.
The test had also been leaving behind a .gitattributes file for later
tests to possibly trip over, let's clean it up with
"test_when_finished".

"git apply" does not allow "--cached" and "--3way" to be used
together, since "--3way" writes conflict markers into the working
tree.
Allow "git apply" to accept "--cached" and "--3way" at the same
time. When a single file auto-resolves cleanly, the result is
placed in the index at stage #0 and the command exits with 0 status.
For a file that has a conflict which cannot be cleanly
auto-resolved, the original contents from common ancestor (stage
conflict at the content level, and the command exists with non-zero
status, because there is no place (like the working tree) to leave a
half-resolved merge for the user to resolve.
The user can use `git diff` to view the contents of the conflict, or
`git checkout -m -- .` to regenerate the conflict markers in the
working directory.
Don't attempt rerere in this case since it depends on conflict
markers written to file for its database storage and lookup. There
would be two main changes required to get rerere working:
1. Allow the rerere api to accept in memory object rather than
files, which would allow us to pass in the conflict markers
contained in the result from ll_merge().
2. Rerere can't write to the working directory, so it would have to
apply the result to cache stage #0 directly. A flag would be
needed to control this.

The apply_fragments() method of "git apply"
can silently apply patches incorrectly if
a file has repeating contents. In these
cases a three-way merge is capable of applying
it correctly in more situations, and will
show a conflict rather than applying it
incorrectly. However, because the patches
apply "successfully" using apply_fragments(),
git will never fall back to the merge, even
if the "--3way" flag is used, and the user has
no way to ensure correctness by forcing the
three-way merge method.
Change the behavior so that when "--3way" is used,
git will always try the three-way merge first and
will only fall back to apply_fragments() in cases
where blobs are not available or some other error
(but not in the case of a merge conflict).
Since user-facing results will be different,
this has backwards compatibility implications
for users depending on the old behavior. In
addition, the three-way merge will be slower
than direct patch application.

Two among the three warnings raised by "make git.info" are related to the fact
that the preface has not id in user-manual.txt.
user-manual.texi:15: warning: empty menu entry name in `* : idm4.'
user-manual.texi:141: warning: @unnumbered missing argument
This causes asciidoc creating an empty preface and an empty title tag in
user-manual.xml which turns to be an empty node in user-manual.texi and
git.info. Consequently, one can notice in user-manual.texi and git.info
a node named "idm4" in the menu and the navigation bar. In emacs, the
first entry of the menu in the git info page is even displayed as empty.
This fix will name "Introduction" the preface and assign it an id.
The result can be seen in the files: user-manual.{xml, texi, html, pdf}
and git.info.
For future reference, the diff between old and new user-manual.xml,
user-manual.texi, git.info, user-manual.html (converted through
html2markdown) and user-manual.pdf (converted through pdftotext) are
attached.

There is a lot of pointer dereferencing in the pre-image version of
'midx_pack_order_cmp()', which this patch gets rid of.
Instead of comparing the pack preferred-ness and then the pack id, both
of these checks are done at the same time by using the high-order bit of
the pack id to represent whether it's preferred. Then the pack id and
offset are compared as usual.
This produces the same result so long as there are less than 2^31 packs,
which seems like a likely assumption to make in practice.

Implement the writing half of multi-pack reverse indexes. This is
nothing more than the format describe a few patches ago, with a new set
of helper functions that will be used to clear out stale .rev files
corresponding to old MIDXs.
Unfortunately, a very similar comparison function as the one implemented
recently in pack-revindex.c is reimplemented here, this time accepting a
MIDX-internal type. An effort to DRY these up would create more
indirection and overhead than is necessary, so it isn't pursued here.
Currently, there are no callers which pass the MIDX_WRITE_REV_INDEX
flag, meaning that this is all dead code. But, that won't be the case
for long, since subsequent patches will introduce the multi-pack bitmap,
which will begin passing this field.
(In midx.c:write_midx_internal(), the two adjacent if statements share a
conditional, but are written separately since the first one will
eventually also handle the MIDX_WRITE_BITMAP flag, which does not yet
exist.)

Existing callers provide the reverse index code with an array of 'struct
pack_idx_entry *'s, which is then sorted by pack order (comparing the
offsets of each object within the pack).
Prepare for the multi-pack index to write a .rev file by providing a way
to write the reverse index without an array of pack_idx_entry (which the
MIDX code does not have).
Instead, callers can invoke 'write_rev_index_positions()', which takes
an array of uint32_t's. The ith entry in this array specifies the ith
object's (in index order) position within the pack (in pack order).
Expose this new function for use in a later patch, and rewrite the
existing write_rev_file() in terms of this new function.

Implement reading for multi-pack reverse indexes, as described in the
previous patch.
Note that these functions don't yet have any callers, and won't until
multi-pack reachability bitmaps are introduced in a later patch series.
In the meantime, this patch implements some of the infrastructure
necessary to support multi-pack bitmaps.
There are three new functions exposed by the revindex API:
- load_midx_revindex(): loads the reverse index corresponding to the
given multi-pack index.
- midx_to_pack_pos() and pack_pos_to_midx(): these convert between the
multi-pack index and pseudo-pack order.
load_midx_revindex() and pack_pos_to_midx() are both relatively
straightforward.
load_midx_revindex() needs a few functions to be exposed from the midx
API. One to get the checksum of a midx, and another to get the .rev's
filename. Similar to recent changes in the packed_git struct, three new
fields are added to the multi_pack_index struct: one to keep track of
the size, one to keep track of the mmap'd pointer, and another to point
past the header and at the reverse index's data.
pack_pos_to_midx() simply reads the corresponding entry out of the
table.
midx_to_pack_pos() is the trickiest, since it needs to find an object's
position in the psuedo-pack order, but that order can only be recovered
in the .rev file itself. This mapping can be implemented with a binary
search, but note that the thing we're binary searching over isn't an
array of values, but rather a permuted order of those values.
So, when comparing two items, it's helpful to keep in mind the
difference. Instead of a traditional binary search, where you are
comparing two things directly, here we're comparing a (pack, offset)
tuple with an index into the multi-pack index. That index describes
another (pack, offset) tuple, and it is _those_ two tuples that are
compared.

As a prerequisite to implementing multi-pack bitmaps, motivate and
describe the format and ordering of the multi-pack reverse index.
The subsequent patch will implement reading this format, and the patch
after that will implement writing it while producing a multi-pack index.

In a subsequent commit, pack-revindex.c will become responsible for
sorting a list of objects in the "MIDX pack order" (which will be
defined in the following patch). To do so, it will need to be know the
pack identifier and offset within that pack for each object in the MIDX.
The MIDX code already has functions for doing just that
(nth_midxed_offset() and nth_midxed_pack_int_id()), but they are
statically declared.
Since there is no reason that they couldn't be exposed publicly, and
because they are already doing exactly what the caller in
pack-revindex.c will want, expose them publicly so that they can be
reused there.

write_midx_internal() uses a hashfile to write the multi-pack index, but
discards its checksum. This makes sense, since nothing that takes place
after writing the MIDX cares about its checksum.
That is about to change in a subsequent patch, when the optional
reverse index corresponding to the MIDX will want to include the MIDX's
checksum.
Store the checksum of the MIDX in preparation for that.

A subsequent patch will need to refer back to 'midx_name' later on in
the function. In fact, this variable is already free()'d later on, so
this makes the later free() no longer redundant.

When multiple packs in the multi-pack index contain the same object, the
MIDX machinery must make a choice about which pack it associates with
that object. Prior to this patch, the lowest-ordered[1] pack was always
selected.
Pack selection for duplicate objects is relatively unimportant today,
but it will become important for multi-pack bitmaps. This is because we
can only invoke the pack-reuse mechanism when all of the bits for reused
objects come from the reuse pack (in order to ensure that all reused
deltas can find their base objects in the same pack).
To encourage the pack selection process to prefer one pack over another
(the pack to be preferred is the one a caller would like to later use as
a reuse pack), introduce the concept of a "preferred pack". When
provided, the MIDX code will always prefer an object found in a
preferred pack over any other.
No format changes are required to store the preferred pack, since it
will be able to be inferred with a corresponding MIDX bitmap, by looking
up the pack associated with the object in the first bit position (this
ordering is described in detail in a subsequent commit).
[1]: the ordering is specified by MIDX internals; for our purposes we
can consider the "lowest ordered" pack to be "the one with the
most-recent mtime.

In some scenarios, users may want more history than the repository
offered for cloning, which happens to be a shallow repository, can
give them. But because users don't know it is a shallow repository
until they download it to local, we may want to refuse to clone
this kind of repository, without creating any unnecessary files.
The '--depth=x' option cannot be used as a solution; the source may
be deep enough to give us 'x' commits when cloned, but the user may
later need to deepen the history to arbitrary depth.
Teach '--reject-shallow' option to "git clone" to abort as soon as
we find out that we are cloning from a shallow repository.

After we run parse_object_buffer() to get an object's contents, we try
to check that the return value wasn't NULL. However, since our "struct
object" is a pointer-to-pointer, and we assign like:
*obj = parse_object_buffer(...);
it's not correct to check:
if (!obj)
That will always be true, since our double pointer will continue to
point to the single pointer (which is itself NULL). This is a regression
that was introduced by aa46a0da30 (ref-filter: use oid_object_info() to
get object, 2018-07-17); since that commit we'll segfault on a parse
failure, as we try to look at the NULL object pointer.
There are many ways a parse could fail, but most of them are hard to set
up in the tests (it's easy to make a bogus object, but update-ref will
refuse to point to it). The test here uses a tag which points to a wrong
object type. A parse of just the broken tag object will succeed, but
seeing both tag objects in the same process will lead to a parse error
(since we'll see the pointed-to object as both types).

When writing a new pack with a bitmap, it is sometimes convenient to
indicate some reference prefixes which should receive priority when
selecting which commits to receive bitmaps.
A truly motivated caller could accomplish this by setting
'pack.islandCore', (since all commits in the core island are similarly
marked as preferred) but this requires callers to opt into using delta
islands, which they may or may not want to do.
Introduce a new multi-valued configuration, 'pack.preferBitmapTips' to
allow callers to specify a list of reference prefixes. All references
which have a prefix contained in 'pack.preferBitmapTips' will mark their
tips as "preferred" in the same way as commits are marked as preferred
for selection by 'pack.islandCore'.
The choice of the verb "prefer" is intentional: marking the NEEDS_BITMAP
flag on an object does *not* guarantee that that object will receive a
bitmap. It merely guarantees that that commit will receive a bitmap over
any *other* commit in the same window by bitmap_writer_select_commits().
The test this patch adds reflects this quirk, too. It only tests that
a commit (which didn't receive bitmaps by default) is selected for
bitmaps after changing the value of 'pack.preferBitmapTips' to include
it. Other commits may lose their bitmaps as a byproduct of how the
selection process works (bitmap_writer_select_commits() ignores the
remainder of a window after seeing a commit with the NEEDS_BITMAP flag).
This configuration will aide in selecting important references for
multi-pack bitmaps, since they do not respect the same pack.islandCore
configuration. (They could, but doing so may be confusing, since it is
packs--not bitmaps--which are influenced by the delta-islands
configuration).
In a fork network repository (one which lists all forks of a given
repository as remotes), for example, it is useful to set
pack.preferBitmapTips to 'refs/remotes/<root>/heads' and
'refs/remotes/<root>/tags', where '<root>' is an opaque identifier
referring to the repository which is at the base of the fork chain.
