Change the completion of "push --delete <remote> <ref>" to complete
refs on that <remote>, not all refs.
Before this cloning git.git and doing "git push --delete origin
p<TAB>" will complete nothing, since a fresh clone of git.git will
have no "pu" branch, whereas origin/p<TAB> will uselessly complete
origin/pu, but fully qualified references aren't accepted by
"--delete".
Now p<TAB> will complete as "pu". The completion of giving --delete
later, e.g. "git push origin --delete p<TAB>" remains unchanged, this
is a bug, but is a general existing limitation of the bash completion,
and not how git-push is documented, so I'm not fixing that case, but
adding a failing TODO test for it.

We had two similar bugs in the tests sporadically triggering error
messages during the removal of the trash directory, see commits
bb05510e5 (t5510: run auto-gc in the foreground, 2016-05-01) and
ef09036cf (t6500: wait for detached auto gc at the end of the test
script, 2017-04-13). The test script succeeded nonetheless, because
these errors are ignored during housekeeping in 'test_done'.
However, such an error is a sign that something is fishy in the test
script. Print an error message and abort the test script when the
trash directory can't be removed successfully or is already removed,
because that's unexpected and we would prefer somebody notice and
figure out why.

Git's source code refers to timestamps as unsigned long, which is
ill-defined, as there is no guarantee about the number of bits that
data type has.
In preparation of switching to another data type that is large enough
to hold "far in the future" dates, we need to prepare the t0006-date.sh
script for the case where we *still* cannot format those dates if the
system library uses 32-bit time_t.

Git's source code refers to timestamps as unsigned longs. On 32-bit
platforms, as well as on Windows, unsigned long is not large enough to
capture dates that are "absurdly far in the future".
It is perfectly valid by the C standard, of course, for the `long` data
type to refer to 32-bit integers. That is why the `time_t` data type
exists: so that it can be 64-bit even if `long` is 32-bit. Git's source
code simply uses an incorrect data type for timestamps, is all.
The earlier quick fix 6b9c38e14c (t0006: skip "far in the future" test
when unsigned long is not long enough, 2016-07-11) papered over this
issue simply by skipping the respective test cases on platforms where
they would fail due to the data type in use.
This quick fix, however, tests for *long* to be 64-bit or not. What we
need, though, is a test that says whether *whatever data type we use for
timestamps* is 64-bit or not.
The same quick fix was used to handle the similar problem where Git's
source code uses `unsigned long` to represent size, instead of `size_t`,
conflating the two issues.
So let's just add another prerequisite to test specifically whether
timestamps are represented by a 64-bit data type or not. Later, after we
switch to a larger data type, we can flip that prerequisite to test
`time_t` instead of `long`.

In its `atom_value` struct, the ref-filter source code wants to store
different values in a field called `ul` (for `unsigned long`), e.g.
timestamps.
However, as we are about to switch the data type of timestamps away from
`unsigned long` (because it may be 32-bit even when `time_t` is 64-bit),
that data type is not large enough.
Simply change that field to use `uintmax_t` instead.
This patch is a bit larger than the mere change of the data type
because the field's name was tied to its data type, which has been fixed
at the same time.

When core.packedGitLimit is exceeded, git will close packs. If there
is a repack operation going on in parallel with a fetch, the fetch
might open a pack, and then be forced to close it due to
packedGitLimit being hit. The repack could then delete the pack
out from under the fetch, causing the fetch to fail.
Increase core.packedGitLimit's default value to prevent
this.
On current 64-bit x86_64 machines, 48 bits of address space are
available. It appears that 64-bit ARM machines have no standard
amount of address space (that is, it varies by manufacturer), and IA64
and POWER machines have the full 64 bits. So 48 bits is the only
limit that we can reasonably care about. We reserve a few bits of the
48-bit address space for the kernel's use (this is not strictly
necessary, but it's better to be safe), and use up to the remaining
45. No git repository will be anywhere near this large any time soon,
so this should prevent the failure.

The only caller of this function passes in a static buffer
returned from git_path(). This looks dangerous at first
glance, but turns out to be OK because the first thing we do
is xstrdup() the result.
Let's turn this into a git_pathdup(). That's slightly more
efficient (no extra copy), and makes it easier to audit for
dangerous git_path() invocations.
Since there's only a single caller, let's just set this

passes it to check_and_freshen_file() as its argument; there is no

no gap that somebody can accidentally "prune" the new worktree (or soon,
explicitly "worktree remove" it).
"worktree add" does keep a lock on while it's preparing the worktree.
If --lock is specified, this lock remains after the worktree is created.

Config file reading order is important because each file can override
values in the previous files and this is expected behavior. Normally
we read in this order, all in do_git_config_sequence():
1. $HOME/.gitconfig
2. $GIT_DIR/config
3. config from command line
However in read_early_config() the order may be swapped a bit if
setup_git_directory() has not been called:
1. $HOME/.gitconfig
2. $GIT_DIR/config is NOT read because .git dir is not found _yet_
3. config from command line
4. $GIT_DIR/config is now READ (after discover_git_directory() call)
The reading at step 4 could override config at step 3, which is not
the expectation.
Now that we could pass the .git dir around, we could feed
discover_git_directory() back to step 2, so that it works again, and
remove step 4.
