257418c590 revision: allow --ancestry-path to take an argument
We have long allowed users to run e.g.
    git log --ancestry-path master..seen
which shows all commits which satisfy all three of these criteria:
  * are an ancestor of seen
  * are not an ancestor of master
  * have master as an ancestor

This commit allows another variant:
    git log --ancestry-path=$TOPIC master..seen
which shows all commits which satisfy all of these criteria:
  * are an ancestor of seen
  * are not an ancestor of master
  * have $TOPIC in their ancestry-path
that last bullet can be defined as commits meeting any of these
criteria:
    * are an ancestor of $TOPIC
    * have $TOPIC as an ancestor
    * are $TOPIC

This also allows multiple --ancestry-path arguments, which can be
used to find commits with any of the given topics in their ancestry
path.

1838e21cff t6019: modernize tests with helper
The tests in t6019 are repetitive, so create a helper that greatly
simplifies the test script.

In addition, update the common pattern that places 'git rev-list' on the
left side of a pipe, which can hide some exit codes. Send the output to
a 'raw' file that is then consumed by other tools so the Git exit code
is verified as zero.  And since we're using --format anyway, switch to
`git log`, so that we get the desired format and can avoid using sed.

8e2841890a scalar: update technical doc roadmap with FSMonitor support
Update the Scalar roadmap to reflect completion of enabling the built-in
FSMonitor in Scalar.

Note that implementation of 'scalar help' was moved to the final set of
changes to move Scalar out of 'contrib/'. This is due to a dependency on
changes to 'git help', as all changes to the main Git tree *exclusively*
implemented to support Scalar are part of that series.

3f1917dc60 scalar: enable built-in FSMonitor on register
Using the built-in FSMonitor makes many common commands quite a bit
faster. So let's teach the `scalar register` command to enable the
built-in FSMonitor and kick-start the fsmonitor--daemon process (for
convenience).

For simplicity, we only support the built-in FSMonitor (and no external
file system monitor such as e.g. Watchman).

for an abrupt exit with 'die()' in 'delete_enlistment()' because its only
caller ('cmd_delete()') properly cleans up allocated resources and returns
the 'delete_enlistment()' return value as its own exit code.

65f6a9eb0b scalar: constrain enlistment search
Make the search for repository and enlistment root in
'setup_enlistment_directory()' more constrained to simplify behavior and
adhere to 'GIT_CEILING_DIRECTORIES'.

Previously, 'setup_enlistment_directory()' would check whether the provided
path (or current working directory) '<dir>' or its subdirectory '<dir>/src'
was a repository root. If not, the process would repeat on the parent of
'<dir>' until the repository was found or it reached the root of the
filesystem. This meant that a user could specify a path *anywhere* inside an
enlistment (including paths not in the repository contained within the
enlistment) and it would be found.

The downside to this process is that the search would not account for
'GIT_CEILING_DIRECTORIES', so the upward search could result in modifying
repository contents past 'GIT_CEILING_DIRECTORIES'. Similarly, operations
like 'scalar delete' could end up unintentionally deleting the parent of a
repo if its root was named 'src'.

To make this 'setup_enlistment_directory()' both adhere to
'GIT_CEILING_DIRECTORIES' and avoid unwanted deletions, the search for an
enlistment directory is simplified to:

- if '<dir>/src' is a repository root, '<dir>' is the enlistment root
- if '<dir>' is either the repository root or contained within a repository,
  the repository root is the enlistment root

Now, only 'setup_git_directory()' (called by 'setup_enlistment_directory()')
searches upwards from the 'scalar' specified path, enforcing
'GIT_CEILING_DIRECTORIES' in the process. Additionally, 'scalar delete
<dir>/src' will not delete '<dir>' (if users would like to delete it, they
can still specify the enlistment root with 'scalar delete <dir>'). This is
true of any 'scalar' operation; users can invoke 'scalar' on the enlistment
root, but paths must otherwise be inside the repository to be valid.

To help clarify the updated behavior, new tests are added to
't9099-scalar.sh'.

Finally, this change leaves 'strbuf_parent_directory()' with only a single,
WIN32-specific caller in 'delete_enlistment()'. Rather than wrap
'strbuf_parent_directory()' in '#ifdef WIN32' to avoid the "unused function"
compiler error, move the contents of 'strbuf_parent_directory()' into
'delete_enlistment()' and remove the function.

In commit 4057523a40 ("submodule merge: update conflict error message",
2022-08-04), a more detailed message was provided when submodules
conflict, in order to help users know how to resolve those conflicts.
There were a couple situations for which a different message would be
more appropriate, but that commit left handling those for future work.
Unfortunately, that commit would check if any submodules were of the
type that it didn't know how to explain, and, if so, would avoid
providing the more detailed explanation even for the submodules it did
know how to explain.

Change this to have the code print the helpful messages for the subset
of submodules it knows how to explain.

34ce504a33 merge-ort: avoid surprise with new sub_flag variable
Commit 4057523a40 ("submodule merge: update conflict error message",
2022-08-04) added a sub_flag variable that is used to store a value from
enum conflict_and_info_types, but initializes it with a value of -1 that
does not correspond to any of the conflict_and_info_types.  The code may
never set it to a valid value and yet still use it, which can be
surprising when reading over the code at first.  Initialize it instead
to the generic CONFLICT_SUBMODULE_FAILED_TO_MERGE value, which is still
distinct from the two values we need to special case.

a5834b775b merge-ort: remove translator lego in new "submodule conflict suggestion"
In commit 4057523a40 ("submodule merge: update conflict error message",
2022-08-04), the new "submodule conflict suggestion" code was
translating 6 different pieces of the new message and then used
carefully crafted logic to allow stitching it back together with special
formatting.  Keep the components of the message together as much as
possible, so that:
  * we reduce the number of things translators have to translate
  * translators have more control over the format of the output
  * the code is much easier for developers to understand too

Also, reformat some comments running beyond the 80th column while at it.

716c1f649e pipe_command(): mark stdin descriptor as non-blocking
Our pipe_command() helper lets you both write to and read from a child
process on its stdin/stdout. It's supposed to work without deadlocks
because we use poll() to check when descriptors are ready for reading or
writing. But there's a bug: if both the data to be written and the data
to be read back exceed the pipe buffer, we'll deadlock.

The issue is that the code assumes that if you have, say, a 2MB buffer
to write and poll() tells you that the pipe descriptor is ready for
writing, that calling:

  write(cmd->in, buf, 2*1024*1024);

will do a partial write, filling the pipe buffer and then returning what
it did write. And that is what it would do on a socket, but not for a
pipe. When writing to a pipe, at least on Linux, it will block waiting
for the child process to read() more. And now we have a potential
deadlock, because the child may be writing back to us, waiting for us to
read() ourselves.

An easy way to trigger this is:

  git -c add.interactive.useBuiltin=true \
      -c interactive.diffFilter=cat \
      checkout -p HEAD~200

The diff against HEAD~200 will be big, and the filter wants to write all
of it back to us (obviously this is a dummy filter, but in the real
world something like diff-highlight would similarly stream back a big
output).

If you set add.interactive.useBuiltin to false, the problem goes away,
because now we're not using pipe_command() anymore (instead, that part
happens in perl). But this isn't a bug in the interactive code at all.
It's the underlying pipe_command() code which is broken, and has been
all along.

We presumably didn't notice because most calls only do input _or_
output, not both. And the few that do both, like gpg calls, may have
large inputs or outputs, but never both at the same time (e.g., consider
signing, which has a large payload but a small signature comes back).

The obvious fix is to put the descriptor into non-blocking mode, and
indeed, that makes the problem go away. Callers shouldn't need to
care, because they never see the descriptor (they hand us a buffer to
feed into it).

The included test fails reliably on Linux without this patch. Curiously,
it doesn't fail in our Windows CI environment, but has been reported to
do so for individual developers. It should pass in any environment after
this patch (courtesy of the compat/ layers added in the last few
commits).
