When cloning, we choose the default branch based on the remote HEAD.
But if there is no remote HEAD reported (which could happen if the
target of the remote HEAD is unborn), we'll fall back to using our local
init.defaultBranch. Traditionally this hasn't been a big deal, because
most repos used "master" as the default. But these days it is likely to
cause confusion if the server and client implementations choose
different values (e.g., if the remote started with "main", we may choose
"master" locally, create commits there, and then the user is surprised
when they push to "master" and not "main").
To solve this, the remote needs to communicate the target of the HEAD
symref, even if it is unborn, and "git clone" needs to use this
information.
Currently, symrefs that have unborn targets (such as in this case) are
not communicated by the protocol. Teach Git to advertise and support the
"unborn" feature in "ls-refs" (by default, this is advertised, but
server administrators may turn this off through the lsrefs.unborn
config). This feature indicates that "ls-refs" supports the "unborn"
argument; when it is specified, "ls-refs" will send the HEAD symref with
the name of its unborn target.
This change is only for protocol v2. A similar change for protocol v0
would require independent protocol design (there being no analogous
position to signal support for "unborn") and client-side plumbing of the
data required, so the scope of this patch set is limited to protocol v2.
The client side will be updated to use this in a subsequent commit.

"git clone" learned clone.defaultremotename configuration variable
to customize what nickname to use to call the remote the repository
was cloned from.
* sb/clone-origin:
clone: allow configurable default for `-o`/`--origin`
clone: read new remote name from remote_name instead of option_origin
clone: validate --origin option before use
refs: consolidate remote name validation
remote: add tests for add and rename with invalid names
clone: use more conventional config/option layering
clone: add tests for --template and some disallowed option pairs
While the default remote name of "origin" can be changed at clone-time
with `git clone`'s `--origin` option, it was previously not possible
to specify a default value for the name of that remote. Add support for
a new `clone.defaultRemoteName` config, with the newly-created remote
name resolved in priority order:
1. (Highest priority) A remote name passed directly to `git clone -o`
2. A `clone.defaultRemoteName=new_name` in config `git clone -c`
3. A `clone.defaultRemoteName` value set in `/path/to/template/config`,
where `--template=/path/to/template` is provided
4. A `clone.defaultRemoteName` value set in a non-template config file
5. The default value of `origin`

"git commit-graph write" learned to limit the number of bloom
filters that are computed from scratch with the --max-new-filters
option.
* tb/bloom-improvements:
commit-graph: introduce 'commitGraph.maxNewFilters'
builtin/commit-graph.c: introduce '--max-new-filters=<n>'
commit-graph: rename 'split_commit_graph_opts'
bloom: encode out-of-bounds filters as non-empty
bloom/diff: properly short-circuit on max_changes
bloom: use provided 'struct bloom_filter_settings'
bloom: split 'get_bloom_filter()' in two
commit-graph.c: store maximum changed paths
commit-graph: respect 'commitGraph.readChangedPaths'
t/helper/test-read-graph.c: prepare repo settings
commit-graph: pass a 'struct repository *' in more places
t4216: use an '&&'-chain
commit-graph: introduce 'get_bloom_filter_settings()'
Currently, a normal run of "git maintenance run" will only run the 'gc'
task, as it is the only one enabled. This is mostly for backwards-
compatible reasons since "git maintenance run --auto" commands replaced
previous "git gc --auto" commands after some Git processes. Users could
manually run specific maintenance tasks by calling "git maintenance run
--task=<task>" directly.
Allow users to customize which steps are run automatically using config.
The 'maintenance.<task>.enabled' option then can turn on these other
tasks (or turn off the 'gc' task).

Git uses the 'core.commitGraph' configuration value to control whether
or not the commit graph is used when parsing commits or performing a
traversal.
Now that commit-graphs can also contain a section for changed-path Bloom
filters, administrators that already have commit-graphs may find it
convenient to use those graphs without relying on their changed-path
Bloom filters. This can happen, for example, during a staged roll-out,
or in the event of an incident.
Introduce 'commitGraph.readChangedPaths' to control whether or not Bloom
filters are read. Note that this configuration is independent from both:
- 'core.commitGraph', to allow flexibility in using all parts of a
commit-graph _except_ for its Bloom filters.
- The '--changed-paths' option for 'git commit-graph write', to allow
reading and writing Bloom filters to be controlled independently.
When the variable is set, pretend as if no Bloom data was specified at
all. This avoids adding additional special-casing outside of the
commit-graph internals.

356aea6 ("doc: move extensions.worktreeConfig to the right place",
2018-11-14) moved the explanation of extension.worktreeConfig from
config.txt to technical/repository-version.txt. However, the former
still contains a reference to the removed paragraph. We could fix it
referencing the gitrepository-layout man page, which contains the moved
explanation. But the git-worktree man page has additional information
and recommendations for the worktree config file, so let's reference it
instead.

The indented lines in these example config-file listings are indented
differently by AsciiDoc and Asciidoctor.
Fix this by marking the example config-files as code listings by
wrapping them in "----". Because this gives us some extra indentation,
we can remove the one that we have been carrying explicitly. That is,
drop the first tab of indentation on each line.
With AsciiDoc, this results in identical rendering before and after this
commit. Asciidoctor now renders this the same as AsciiDoc does.
git-config.txt pretty consistently uses twelve dashes rather than the
minimum four to spell "----". Let's stick to the file-local convention
there.

Currently, if a user wishes to have individual settings per branch, they
are required to manually keep track of the settings in their head and
manually set the options on the command-line or change the config at
each branch.
Teach config the "onbranch:" includeIf condition so that it can
conditionally include configuration files if the branch that is checked
out in the current worktree matches the pattern given.

All config extensions are described in technical/repository-version.txt.
I made a mistake of adding it in config.txt instead. This patch moves
it back to where it belongs.
Since repository-version.txt is not part of officially generated
documents (it's not even part of DOC_HTML target), it's only visible
to developers who read plain .txt files. Let's include it in
gitrepository-layout.5 for more visibility. Some minor asciidoc fixes
are required in repository-version.txt to make this happen.

"per repository in the $GIT_DIR/config") has been introduced so
that different worktrees that share the same repository (hence the
