5024ade1b1 test-lib: introduce required prereq for test runs
In certain environments or for specific test scenarios we might expect a
specific prerequisite check to succeed. Therefore we would like to abort
running our tests if this is not the case.

To remedy this we add the environment variable GIT_TEST_REQUIRE_PREREQ
which can be set to a space separated list of prereqs. If one of these
prereq tests fail then the whole test run will abort.

71ef66d740 submodule: trace adding submodule ODB as alternate
Submodule ODBs are never added as alternates during the execution of the
test suite, but there may be a rare interaction that the test suite does
not have coverage of. Add a trace message when this happens, so that
users who trace their commands can notice such occurrences.

956d2e4639 tests: add a test mode for SANITIZE=leak, run it in CI
While git can be compiled with SANITIZE=leak, we have not run
regression tests under that mode. Memory leaks have only been fixed as
one-offs without structured regression testing.

This change adds CI testing for it. We'll now build and small set of
whitelisted t00*.sh tests under Linux with a new job called
"linux-leaks".

The CI target uses a new GIT_TEST_PASSING_SANITIZE_LEAK=true test
mode. When running in that mode, we'll assert that we were compiled
with SANITIZE=leak. We'll then skip all tests, except those that we've
opted-in by setting "TEST_PASSES_SANITIZE_LEAK=true".

A test setting "TEST_PASSES_SANITIZE_LEAK=true" setting can in turn
make use of the "SANITIZE_LEAK" prerequisite, should they wish to
selectively skip tests even under
"GIT_TEST_PASSING_SANITIZE_LEAK=true". In the preceding commit we
started doing this in "t0004-unwritable.sh" under SANITIZE=leak, now
it'll combine nicely with "GIT_TEST_PASSING_SANITIZE_LEAK=true".

This is how tests that don't set "TEST_PASSES_SANITIZE_LEAK=true" will
be skipped under GIT_TEST_PASSING_SANITIZE_LEAK=true:

    $ GIT_TEST_PASSING_SANITIZE_LEAK=true ./t0001-init.sh
    1..0 # SKIP skip all tests in t0001 under SANITIZE=leak, TEST_PASSES_SANITIZE_LEAK not set

The intent is to add more TEST_PASSES_SANITIZE_LEAK=true annotations
as follow-up change, but let's start small to begin with.

In ci/run-build-and-tests.sh we make use of the default "*" case to
run "make test" without any GIT_TEST_* modes. SANITIZE=leak is known
to fail in combination with GIT_TEST_SPLIT_INDEX=true in
t0016-oidmap.sh, and we're likely to have other such failures in
various GIT_TEST_* modes. Let's focus on getting the base tests
passing, we can expand coverage to GIT_TEST_* modes later.

It would also be possible to implement a more lightweight version of
this by only relying on setting "LSAN_OPTIONS". See
<YS9OT/pn5rRK9cGB@coredump.intra.peff.net>[1] and
<YS9ZIDpANfsh7N+S@coredump.intra.peff.net>[2] for a discussion of
that. I've opted for this approach of adding a GIT_TEST_* mode instead
because it's consistent with how we handle other special test modes.

Being able to add a "!SANITIZE_LEAK" prerequisite and calling
"test_done" early if it isn't satisfied also means that we can more
incrementally add regression tests without being forced to fix
widespread and hard-to-fix leaks at the same time.

We have tests that do simple checking of some tool we're interested
in, but later on in the script might be stressing trace2, or common
sources of leaks like "git log" in combination with the tool (e.g. the
commit-graph tests). To be clear having a prerequisite could also be
accomplished by using "LSAN_OPTIONS" directly.

On the topic of "LSAN_OPTIONS": It would be nice to have a mode to
aggregate all failures in our various scripts, see [2] for a start at
doing that which sets "log_path" in "LSAN_OPTIONS". I've punted on
that for now, it can be added later.

As of writing this we've got major regressions between master..seen,
i.e. the t000*.sh tests and more fixed since 31f9acf9ce (Merge branch
'ah/plugleaks', 2021-08-04) have regressed recently.

See the discussion at <87czsv2idy.fsf@evledraar.gmail.com>[3] about
the lack of this sort of test mode, and 0e5bba53af (add UNLEAK
annotation for reducing leak false positives, 2017-09-08) for the
initial addition of SANITIZE=leak.

See also 09595ab381 (Merge branch 'jk/leak-checkers', 2017-09-19),
7782066f67 (Merge branch 'jk/apache-lsan', 2019-05-19) and the recent
936e58851a (Merge branch 'ah/plugleaks', 2021-05-07) for some of the
past history of "one-off" SANITIZE=leak (and more) fixes.

As noted in [5] we can't support this on OSX yet until Clang 14 is
released, at that point we'll probably want to resurrect that
"osx-leaks" job.

a35e03dee0 submodule: lazily add submodule ODBs as alternates
Teach Git to add submodule ODBs as alternates to the object store of
the_repository only upon the first access of an object not in
the_repository, and not when add_submodule_odb() is called.

This provides a means of gradually migrating from accessing a
submodule's object through alternates to accessing a submodule's object
by explicitly passing its repository object. Any Git command can declare
that it might access submodule objects by calling add_submodule_odb()
(as they do now), but the submodule ODBs themselves will not be added
until needed, so individual commands and/or combinations of arguments
can be migrated one by one.

[The advantage of explicit repository-object passing is code clarity (it
is clear which repository an object read is from), performance (there is
no need to linearly search through all submodule ODBs whenever an object
is accessed from any repository, whether superproject or submodule), and
the possibility of future features like partial clone submodules (which
right now is not possible because if an object is missing, we do not
know which repository to lazy-fetch into).]

This commit also introduces an environment variable that a test may set
to make the actual registration of alternates fatal, in order to
demonstrate that its codepaths do not need this registration.

01c381037c test-lib-functions: keep user's debugger config files and TERM in 'debug'
The 'debug' function in test-lib-functions.sh is used to invoke a
debugger at a specific line in a test. It inherits the value of HOME and
TERM set by 'test-lib.sh': HOME="$TRASH_DIRECTORY" and TERM=dumb.

Changing the value of HOME means that any customization configured in a
developers' debugger configuration file (like $HOME/.gdbinit or
$HOME/.lldbinit) are not available in the debugger invoked by
'test_pause'.

Changing the value of TERM to 'dumb' means that colored output
is disabled in the debugger.

To make the debugging experience with 'debug' more pleasant, leverage
the variable USER_HOME, added in the previous commit, to copy a
developer's ~/.gdbinit and ~/.lldbinit to the test HOME. We do not set
HOME to USER_HOME as in 'test_pause' to avoid user configuration in
$USER_HOME/.gitconfig from interfering with the command being debugged.

Also, add a flag to launch the debugger with the original value of
TERM, and add the same warning as for 'test_pause'.

add5240fa5 test-lib-functions: optionally keep HOME, TERM and SHELL in 'test_pause'
The 'test_pause' function, which is designed to help interactive
debugging and exploration of tests, currently inherits the value of HOME
and TERM set by 'test-lib.sh': HOME="$TRASH_DIRECTORY" and TERM=dumb. It
also invokes the shell defined by TEST_SHELL_PATH, which defaults to
/bin/sh (through SHELL_PATH).

Changing the value of HOME means that any customization configured in a
developers' shell startup files and any Git aliases defined in their
global Git configuration file are not available in the shell invoked by
'test_pause'.

Changing the value of TERM to 'dumb' means that colored output
is disabled for all commands in that shell.

Using /bin/sh as the shell invoked by 'test_pause' is not ideal since
some platforms (i.e. Debian and derivatives) use Dash as /bin/sh, and
this shell is usually compiled without readline support, which makes for
a poor interactive command line experience.

To make the interactive command line experience in the shell invoked by
'test_pause' more pleasant, save the values of HOME and TERM in
USER_HOME and USER_TERM before changing them in test-lib.sh, and add
options to 'test_pause' to optionally use these variables to invoke the
shell. Also add an option to invoke SHELL instead of TEST_SHELL_PATH, so
that developer's interactive shell is used.

We use options instead of changing the behaviour unconditionally since
these three variables can slightly change command behaviour. Moreover,
using the original HOME means commands could overwrite files in a user's
home directory. Be explicit about these caveats in the new 'Usage'
section in test-lib-functions.sh.

Finally, add '[options]' to the test_pause synopsys in t/README, and
mention that the full list of helper functions and their options can be
found in test-lib-functions.sh.

2d86a96220 t: avoid sed-based chain-linting in some expensive cases
Commit 878f988350 (t/test-lib: teach --chain-lint to detect broken
&&-chains in subshells, 2018-07-11) introduced additional chain-lint
tests which add an extra "sed" pipeline to each test we run. This has a
measurable impact on runtime. Here are timings with and without a new
environment variable (added by this patch) that lets you disable just
the additional sed-based chain-lint tests:

  Benchmark #1: GIT_TEST_CHAIN_LINT_HARDER=1 make test
    Time (mean ± σ):     64.202 s ±  1.030 s    [User: 622.469 s, System: 301.402 s]
    Range (min … max):   61.571 s … 65.662 s    10 runs

  Benchmark #2: GIT_TEST_CHAIN_LINT_HARDER=0 make test
    Time (mean ± σ):     57.591 s ±  0.333 s    [User: 529.368 s, System: 270.618 s]
    Range (min … max):   57.143 s … 58.309 s    10 runs

  Summary
    'GIT_TEST_CHAIN_LINT_HARDER=0 make test' ran
      1.11 ± 0.02 times faster than 'GIT_TEST_CHAIN_LINT_HARDER=1 make test'

Of course those extra lint checks are doing something useful, so paying
a few extra seconds (at least on Linux) isn't so bad (though note the
CPU time; we're bounded in our parallel run here by the slowest test, so
it really is ~120s of CPU improvement).

But we can observe that there are some test scripts where they produce a
much stronger effect, and provide less value. In t0027 and t3070 we run
a very large number of small tests, all driven by a series of
functions/loops which are filling in the test bodies. There we get much
less bang for our buck in terms of bug-finding versus CPU cost.

This patch introduces a mechanism for controlling when those extra
lint checks are run, at two levels:

  - a user can ask to disable or to force-enable the checks by setting
    GIT_TEST_CHAIN_LINT_HARDER

  - if the user hasn't specified a preference, individual scripts can
    disable the checks by setting GIT_TEST_CHAIN_LINT_HARDER_DEFAULT;
    scripts which don't set that get the current behavior of enabling
    them.

In addition, this patch flips the default for t0027 and t3070's
mass-generated sections to disable the extra checks. Here are the timing
results for t0027:

  Benchmark #1: GIT_TEST_CHAIN_LINT_HARDER=1 ./t0027-auto-crlf.sh
    Time (mean ± σ):     17.078 s ±  0.848 s    [User: 14.878 s, System: 7.075 s]
    Range (min … max):   15.952 s … 18.421 s    10 runs

  Benchmark #2: GIT_TEST_CHAIN_LINT_HARDER=0 ./t0027-auto-crlf.sh
    Time (mean ± σ):      9.063 s ±  0.759 s    [User: 7.890 s, System: 3.362 s]
    Range (min … max):    7.747 s … 10.619 s    10 runs

  Benchmark #3: ./t0027-auto-crlf.sh
    Time (mean ± σ):      9.186 s ±  0.881 s    [User: 7.957 s, System: 3.427 s]
    Range (min … max):    7.796 s … 10.498 s    10 runs

  Summary
    'GIT_TEST_CHAIN_LINT_HARDER=0 ./t0027-auto-crlf.sh' ran
      1.01 ± 0.13 times faster than './t0027-auto-crlf.sh'
      1.88 ± 0.18 times faster than 'GIT_TEST_CHAIN_LINT_HARDER=1 ./t0027-auto-crlf.sh'

We can see that disabling the checks for the whole script buys us an
almost 2x speedup. But the new default behavior, disabling them only for
the mass-generated part, gets us most of that speedup (but still leaves
the checks on for further manual tests people might write).

  As a side note, I'd caution about comparing runtimes and CPU seconds
  between this timing and the earlier "make test" one. In "make test",
  we're running a lot of scripts in parallel, so the CPU is throttling
  down (and thus a CPU second saved here would count for more during a
  parallel run; the same work takes more CPU seconds there).

We get similar results for t3070:

  Benchmark #1: GIT_TEST_CHAIN_LINT_HARDER=1 ./t3070-wildmatch.sh
    Time (mean ± σ):     20.054 s ±  3.967 s    [User: 16.003 s, System: 8.286 s]
    Range (min … max):   11.891 s … 23.671 s    10 runs

  Benchmark #2: GIT_TEST_CHAIN_LINT_HARDER=0 ./t3070-wildmatch.sh
    Time (mean ± σ):     12.399 s ±  2.256 s    [User: 7.542 s, System: 5.342 s]
    Range (min … max):    9.606 s … 15.727 s    10 runs

  Benchmark #3: ./t3070-wildmatch.sh
    Time (mean ± σ):     10.726 s ±  3.476 s    [User: 6.790 s, System: 4.365 s]
    Range (min … max):    5.444 s … 15.376 s    10 runs

  Summary
    './t3070-wildmatch.sh' ran
      1.16 ± 0.43 times faster than 'GIT_TEST_CHAIN_LINT_HARDER=0 ./t3070-wildmatch.sh'
      1.87 ± 0.71 times faster than 'GIT_TEST_CHAIN_LINT_HARDER=1 ./t3070-wildmatch.sh'

Again, we get almost a 2x speedup disabling these. In this case, there
are no tests not covered by the script's "default to disable" behavior,
so the second two benchmarks should be the same (and while they do
differ, you can see the variance is quite high but they're within one
standard deviation).

So it seems like for these two scripts, at least, disabling the extra
checks is a reasonable tradeoff. Sadly, the overall runtime of "make
test" on my system doesn't get much faster. But that's because we're
mostly limited by the cost of the single biggest test. Here are the
top-5 tests by wall-clock time from a parallel run, before my patch:

  57.9192368984222 t9001-send-email.sh
  45.6329638957977 t0027-auto-crlf.sh
  32.5278220176697 t3070-wildmatch.sh
  22.2701289653778 t7610-mergetool.sh
  20.8635759353638 t1701-racy-split-index.sh

And after:

  57.1476998329163 t9001-send-email.sh
  33.776211977005 t0027-auto-crlf.sh
  21.3116669654846 t7610-mergetool.sh
  20.7748689651489 t1701-racy-split-index.sh
  19.6957249641418 t7112-reset-submodule.sh

We dropped 12s from t0027, and t3070 dropped off our list entirely at
around 16s. In both cases we're bound by t9001, but its slowness is
due to the actual tests, so we'll have to deal with it in a different

87094fc2da ci: run test round with parallel-checkout enabled
We already have tests for the basic parallel-checkout operations. But
this code can also run be executed by other commands, such as
git-read-tree and git-sparse-checkout, which are currently not tested
with multiple workers. To promote a wider test coverage without
duplicating tests:

1. Add the GIT_TEST_CHECKOUT_WORKERS environment variable, to optionally
   force parallel-checkout execution during the whole test suite.

2. Set this variable (with a value of 2) in the second test round of our
   linux-gcc CI job. This round runs `make test` again with some
   optional GIT_TEST_* variables enabled, so there is no additional
   overhead in exercising the parallel-checkout code here.

Note that tests checking out less than two parallel-eligible entries
will fall back to the sequential mode. Nevertheless, it's still a good
exercise for the parallel-checkout framework as the fallback codepath
also writes the queued entries using the parallel-checkout functions
(only without spawning any worker).

702110aac6 commit-graph: use config to specify generation type
We have two established generation number versions:

 1: topological levels
 2: corrected commit dates

The corrected commit dates are enabled by default, but they also write
extra data in the GDAT and GDOV chunks. Services that host Git data
might want to have more control over when this feature rolls out than
just updating the Git binaries.

Add a new "commitGraph.generationVersion" config option that specifies
the intended generation number version. If this value is less than 2,
then the GDAT chunk is never written _or read_ from an existing file.

This can replace our use of the GIT_TEST_COMMIT_GRAPH_NO_GDAT
environment variable in the test suite. Remove it.

With this the LIBPCRE2 test prerequisites is redundant to PCRE. But
I'm keeping it for self-documentation purposes, and to avoid conflict
with other in-flight PCRE patches.

I'm also not changing all of our own "pcre2" names to "pcre", i.e. the
inverse of 6d4b5747f0 (grep: change internal *pcre* variable &

d162b25f95 tests: remove support for GIT_TEST_GETTEXT_POISON
This removes the ability to inject "poison" gettext() messages via the
GIT_TEST_GETTEXT_POISON special test setup.

I initially added this as a compile-time option in bb946bba76 (i18n:
add GETTEXT_POISON to simulate unfriendly translator, 2011-02-22), and
most recently modified to be toggleable at runtime in
6cdccfce1e (i18n: make GETTEXT_POISON a runtime option, 2018-11-08)..

The reason for its removal is that the trade-off of maintaining it
v.s. what it's getting us has long since flipped. When gettext was
integrated in 5e9637c629 (i18n: add infrastructure for translating
Git with gettext, 2011-11-18) there was understandable concern on the
Git ML that in marking messages for translation en-masse we'd
inadvertently mark plumbing messages. The GETTEXT_POISON facility was
a way to smoke those out via our test suite.

Nowadays however we're done (or almost entirely done) with any marking
of messages for translation. New messages are usually marked by their
authors, who'll know whether it makes sense to translate them or
not. If not any errors in marking the messages are much more likely to
be spotted in review than in the the initial deluge of i18n patches in
the 2011-2012 era.

So let's just remove this. This leaves the test suite in a state where
we still have a lot of test_i18n, C_LOCALE_OUTPUT
etc. uses. Subsequent commits will remove those too.

The change to t/lib-rebase.sh is a selective revert of the relevant
part of f2d17068fd (i18n: rebase-interactive: mark comments of squash
for translation, 2016-06-17), and the comment in
t/t3406-rebase-message.sh is from c7108bf9ed (i18n: rebase: mark
messages for translation, 2012-07-25).

e8b63005c4 commit-graph: implement generation data chunk
As discovered by Ævar, we cannot increment graph version to
distinguish between generation numbers v1 and v2 [1]. Thus, one of
pre-requistes before implementing generation number v2 was to
distinguish between graph versions in a backwards compatible manner.

We are going to introduce a new chunk called Generation DATa chunk (or
GDAT). GDAT will store corrected committer date offsets whereas CDAT
will still store topological level.

Old Git does not understand GDAT chunk and would ignore it, reading
topological levels from CDAT. New Git can parse GDAT and take advantage
of newer generation numbers, falling back to topological levels when
GDAT chunk is missing (as it would happen with a commit-graph written
by old Git).

We introduce a test environment variable 'GIT_TEST_COMMIT_GRAPH_NO_GDAT'
which forces commit-graph file to be written without generation data
chunk to emulate a commit-graph file written by old Git.

To minimize the space required to store corrrected commit date, Git
stores corrected commit date offsets into the commit-graph file, instea
of corrected commit dates. This saves us 4 bytes per commit, decreasing
the GDAT chunk size by half, but it's possible for the offset to
overflow the 4-bytes allocated for storage. As such overflows are and
should be exceedingly rare, we use the following overflow management
scheme:

We introduce a new commit-graph chunk, Generation Data OVerflow ('GDOV')
to store corrected commit dates for commits with offsets greater than
GENERATION_NUMBER_V2_OFFSET_MAX.

If the offset is greater than GENERATION_NUMBER_V2_OFFSET_MAX, we set
the MSB of the offset and the other bits store the position of corrected
commit date in GDOV chunk, similar to how Extra Edge List is maintained.

We test the overflow-related code with the following repo history:

           F - N - U
          /         \
U - N - U            N
         \          /
	  N - F - N

Where the commits denoted by U have committer date of zero seconds
since Unix epoch, the commits denoted by N have committer date of
1112354055 (default committer date for the test suite) seconds since
Unix epoch and the commits denoted by F have committer date of
(2 ^ 31 - 2) seconds since Unix epoch.

The largest offset observed is 2 ^ 31, just large enough to overflow.

f21ac368f1 test-lib: allow selecting tests by substring/glob with --run
Many of our test scripts have several "setup" tests.  It's a lot easier
to say

   ./t0050-filesystem.sh --run=setup,9

in order to run all the setup tests as well as test #9, than it is to
track down what all the setup tests are and enter all their numbers in
the list.  Also, I often find myself wanting to run just one or a couple
tests from the test file, but I don't know the numbering of any of the
tests -- to get it I either have to first run the whole test file (or
start counting by hand or figure out some other clever but non-obvious
tricks).  It's really convenient to be able to just look at the test
description(s) and then run

   ./t6416-recursive-corner-cases.sh --run=symlink

or

   ./t6402-merge-rename.sh --run='setup,unnecessary update'

Add such an ability to test selection which relies on merely matching
against the test description.

78dc08875c test-lib: allow short options to be bundled
When debugging a test (or a set of tests), it's common to execute it
with some combination of short options, such as:

	$ ./txxx-testname.sh -d -x -i

In cases like this, CLIs usually allow the short options to be bundled
in a single argument, for convenience and agility. Let's add this
feature to test-lib, allowing the above command to be run as:

	$ ./txxx-testname.sh -dxi
	(or any other permutation, e.g. '-ixd')

Note: Short options that require an argument can also be used in a
bundle, in any position. So, for example, '-r 5 -x', '-xr 5' and '-rx 5'
are all valid and equivalent. A special case would be having a bundle
with more than one of such options. To keep things simple, this case is
not allowed for now. This shouldn't be a major limitation, though, as
the only short option that requires an argument today is '-r'. And
concatenating '-r's as in '-rr 5 6' would probably not be very
practical: its unbundled format would be '-r 5 -r 6', for which test-lib
currently considers only the last argument. Therefore, if '-rr 5 6' were
to be allowed, it would have the same effect as just typing '-r 6'.

Note: the test-lib currently doesn't support '-r5', as an alternative
for '-r 5', so the former is not supported in bundles as well.

2d657ab95f pack-objects: flip the use of GIT_TEST_PACK_SPARSE
The environment variable GIT_TEST_PACK_SPARSE was previously used
to allow testing the --sparse option for "git pack-objects" in
the test suite. This allowed interesting cases of "git push" to
also test this algorithm.

Since pack.useSparse is now true by default, we do not need this
variable to _enable_ the --sparse option, but instead to _disable_
it. This flips how we work with the variable a bit.

When checking for the variable, default to a value of -1 for
"unset". If unset, then take the default from the repo settings,
which is currently 1. Then, the --[no-]sparse command-line option
will override either of these settings.

8a2cd3f512 stash: remove the stash.useBuiltin setting
Remove the stash.useBuiltin setting which was added as an escape hatch
to disable the builtin version of stash first released with Git 2.22.

Carrying the legacy version is a maintenance burden, and has in fact
become out of date failing a test since the 2.23 release, without
anyone noticing until now.  So users would be getting a hint to fall
back to a potentially buggy version of the tool.

We used to shell out to git config to get the useBuiltin configuration
to avoid changing any global state before spawning legacy-stash.
However that is no longer necessary, so just use the 'git_config'
function to get the setting instead.

Similar to what we've done in d03ebd411c ("rebase: remove the
rebase.useBuiltin setting", 2019-03-18), where we remove the
corresponding setting for rebase, we leave the documentation in place,
so people can refer back to it when searching for it online, and so we

upgrade the version of Git protocol used in tests.  If both

For usage within tests, these semantics are too complex.  Instead,
always use the value from protocol.version configuration when it is

43a2afee82 tests: add 'test_bool_env' to catch non-bool GIT_TEST_* values
Since 3b072c577b (tests: replace test_tristate with "git env--helper",
2019-06-21) we get the normalized bool values of various GIT_TEST_*
environment variables via 'git env--helper'.  Now, while the 'git
env--helper' command itself does catch invalid values in the
environment variable or in the given --default and exits with error
(exit code 128 or 129, respectively), it's invoked in conditions like
'if ! git env--helper ...', which means that all invalid bool values
are interpreted the same as the ordinary 'false' (exit code 1).  This
has led to inadvertently skipped httpd tests in our CI builds for a
couple of weeks, see 3960290675 (ci: restore running httpd tests,
2019-09-06).

Let's be more careful about what the test suite accepts as bool values
in GIT_TEST_* environment variables, and error out loud and clear on
invalid values instead of simply skipping tests.  Add the
'test_bool_env' helper function to encapsulate the invocation of 'git
env--helper' and the verification of its exit code, and replace all
invocations of that command in our test framework and test suite with
a call to this new helper (except in 't0017-env-helper.sh', of
course).

  $ GIT_TEST_GIT_DAEMON=YesPlease ./t5570-git-daemon.sh
  fatal: bad numeric config value 'YesPlease' for 'GIT_TEST_GIT_DAEMON': invalid unit
  error: test_bool_env requires bool values both for $GIT_TEST_GIT_DAEMON and for the default fallback

f83dff60a7 Start to implement a built-in version of git add --interactive
Unlike previous conversions to C, where we started with a built-in
helper, we start this conversion by adding an interception in the
`run_add_interactive()` function when the new opt-in
`add.interactive.useBuiltin` config knob is turned on (or the
corresponding environment variable `GIT_TEST_ADD_I_USE_BUILTIN`), and
calling the new internal API function `run_add_i()` that is implemented
directly in libgit.a.

At this point, the built-in version of `git add -i` only states that it
cannot do anything yet. In subsequent patches/patch series, the
`run_add_i()` function will gain more and more functionality, until it
is feature complete. The whole arc of the conversion can be found in the
PRs #170-175 at https://github.com/gitgitgadget/git.

The "--helper approach" can unfortunately not be used here: on Windows
we face the very specific problem that a `system()` call in
Perl seems to close `stdin` in the parent process when the spawned
process consumes even one character from `stdin`. Which prevents us from
implementing the main loop in C and still trying to hand off to the Perl
script.

The very real downside of the approach we have to take here is that the
test suite won't pass with `GIT_TEST_ADD_I_USE_BUILTIN=true` until the
conversion is complete (the `--helper` approach would have let it pass,
even at each of the incremental conversion steps).

c740039921 tests: make GIT_TEST_FAIL_PREREQS a boolean
Change the GIT_TEST_FAIL_PREREQS variable from being "non-empty?" to
being a more standard boolean variable. I recently added the variable
in dfe1a17df9 ("tests: add a special setup where prerequisites fail",
2019-05-13), having to add another "non-empty?" special-case is what
prompted me to write the "git env--helper" utility being used here.

Converting this one is a bit tricky since we use it so early and
frequently in the guts of the test code itself, so let's set a
GIT_TEST_FAIL_PREREQS_INTERNAL which can be tested with the old "test
-n" for the purposes of the shell code, and change the user-exposed
and documented GIT_TEST_FAIL_PREREQS variable to a boolean.

423b05e102 tests README: re-flow a previously changed paragraph
A previous change to the "GIT_TEST_GETTEXT_POISON" variable left this
paragraph needing to be re-flowed. Let's do that in this separate
change to make it easy to see that there's no change here when viewed
with "--word-diff".
