Teach clone --recurse-submodules to optionally take a pathspec argument
which describes which submodules should be recursively initialized and
cloned. If no pathspec is provided, --recurse-submodules will
recursively initialize and clone all submodules by using a default
pathspec of ".". In order to construct more complex pathspecs,
--recurse-submodules can be given multiple times.
This also configures the 'submodule.active' configuration option to be
the given pathspec, such that any future invocation of `git submodule
update` will keep up with the pathspec.
Additionally the switch '--recurse' is removed from the Documentation as
well as marked hidden in the options array, to streamline the options
for submodules. A simple '--recurse' doesn't convey what is being
recursed, e.g. it could mean directories or trees (c.f. ls-tree) In a
lot of other commands we already have '--recurse-submodules' to mean
recursing into submodules, so advertise this spelling here as the
genuine option.

Teach `submodule init` to initialize submodules which have been
configured to be active by setting 'submodule.active' with a pathspec.
Now if no path arguments are given and 'submodule.active' is configured,
`init` will initialize all submodules which have been configured to be
active. If no path arguments are given and 'submodule.active' is not
configured, then `init` will retain the old behavior of initializing all
submodules.
This allows users to record more complex patterns as it saves retyping
them whenever you invoke update.

Currently the submodule.<name>.url config option is used to determine if
a given submodule is of interest to the user. This ends up being
cumbersome in a world where we want to have different submodules checked
out in different worktrees or a more generalized mechanism to select
which submodules are of interest.
In a future with worktree support for submodules, there will be multiple
working trees, each of which may only need a subset of the submodules
checked out. The URL (which is where the submodule repository can be
obtained) should not differ between different working trees.
It may also be convenient for users to more easily specify groups of
submodules they are interested in as opposed to running "git submodule
init <path>" on each submodule they want checked out in their working
tree.
To this end two config options are introduced, submodule.active and
submodule.<name>.active. The submodule.active config holds a pathspec
that specifies which submodules should exist in the working tree. The
submodule.<name>.active config is a boolean flag used to indicate if
that particular submodule should exist in the working tree.
Its important to note that submodule.active functions differently than
the other configuration options since it takes a pathspec. This allows
users to adopt at least two new workflows:
1. Submodules can be grouped with a leading directory, such that a
pathspec e.g. 'lib/' would cover all library-ish modules to allow
those who are interested in library-ish modules to set
"submodule.active = lib/" just once to say any and all modules in
'lib/' are interesting.
2. Once the pathspec-attribute feature is invented, users can label
submodules with attributes to group them, so that a broad pathspec
with attribute requirements, e.g. ':(attr:lib)', can be used to say
any and all modules with the 'lib' attribute are interesting.
Since the .gitattributes file, just like the .gitmodules file, is
tracked by the superproject, when a submodule moves in the
superproject tree, the project can adjust which path gets the
attribute in .gitattributes, just like it can adjust which path has
the submodule in .gitmodules.
Neither of these two additional configuration options solve the problem
of wanting different submodules checked out in different worktrees
because multiple worktrees share .git/config. Only once per-worktree
configurations become a reality can this be solved, but this is a
necessary preparatory step for that future.
Given these multiple ways to check if a submodule is of interest, the
more fine-grained submodule.<name>.active option has the highest order
of precedence followed by the pathspec check against submodule.active.
To ensure backwards compatibility, if neither of these options are set,
git falls back to checking the submodule.<name>.url option to determine
if a submodule is interesting.

The definition of which submodules are of interest by the user
is tied to the configuration submodule.<name>.url; when it is
set to a non-empty string, it is of interest. We'd want to be
able to later change this definition, but there are many places
that explicitly check this condition in the scripted Porcelain.
Introduce the "is-active" subcommand to "submodule--helper", so
that the exact definition of what submodule is of interest can
be centrally defined (and changed in later steps). In a few
patches that follow, this helper is used to replace the explicit
checks of the configuration variable in scripts.

In 4ac9006f83 (real_path: have callers use real_pathdup and
strbuf_realpath, 2016-12-12), we changed the xstrdup(real_path())
pattern to use real_pathdup() directly.
The problem with this change is that real_path() calls
strbuf_realpath() with die_on_error = 1 while real_pathdup() calls
it with die_on_error = 0. Meaning that in cases where real_path()
causes Git to die() with an error message, real_pathdup() is silent
and returns NULL instead.
The callers, however, are ill-prepared for that change, as they expect
the return value to be non-NULL (and otherwise the function died
with an appropriate error message).
Fix this by extending real_pathdup()'s signature to accept the
die_on_error flag and simply pass it through to strbuf_realpath(),
and then adjust all callers after a careful audit whether they would
handle NULLs well.

The ewah subsystem typedefs eword_t to be uint64_t, but some
code uses a bare uint64_t. This isn't a bug now, but it's a
potential maintenance problem if the definition of eword_t
ever changes. Let's use the correct type.
Note that we can't use COPY_ARRAY() here because the source
and destination point to objects of different sizes. For
that reason we'll also skip the usual "sizeof(*dst)" and use
the real type, which should make it more clear that there's

This memcpy meant to get the sizeof a "struct range", not a
"range_set", as the former is what our array holds. Rather
than swap out the types, let's convert this site to
COPY_ARRAY, which avoids the problem entirely (and confirms
that the src and dst types match).
Note for curiosity's sake that this bug doesn't trigger on
I32LP64 systems, but does on ILP32 systems. The mistaken
"struct range_set" has two ints and a pointer. That's 16
bytes on LP64, or 12 on ILP32. The correct "struct range"
type has two longs, which is also 16 on LP64, but only 8 on
ILP32.
Likewise an IL32P64 system would experience the bug.

The existing implementation of range_set_union does not correctly
reallocate memory, leading to a heap overflow when it attempts to union
more than 24 separate line ranges.
For struct range_set *out to grow correctly it must have out->nr set to
the current size of the buffer when it is passed to range_set_grow.
However, the existing implementation of range_set_union only updates
out->nr at the end of the function, meaning that it is always zero
before this. This results in range_set_grow never growing the buffer, as
well as some of the union logic itself being incorrect as !out->nr is
always true.
The reason why 24 is the limit is that the first allocation of size 1
ends up allocating a buffer of size 24 (due to the call to alloc_nr in
ALLOC_GROW). This goes some way to explain why this hasn't been
caught before.
Fix the problem by correctly updating out->nr after reallocating the
range_set. As this results in out->nr containing the same value as the
variable o, replace o with out->nr as well.
Finally, add a new test to help prevent the problem reoccurring in the
future. Thanks to Vegard Nossum for writing the test.

Callers of diff_populate_filespec() can choose to ask only for the
size of the blob without grabbing the blob data, and the function,
after running lstat() when the filespec points at a working tree
file, returns by copying the value in size field of the stat
structure into the size field of the filespec when this is the case.
However, this short-cut cannot be taken if the contents from the
path needs to go through convert_to_git(), whose resulting real blob
data may be different from what is in the working tree file.
As "git diff --quiet" compares the .size fields of filespec
structures to skip content comparison, this bug manifests as a
false "there are differences" for a file that needs eol conversion,
for example.

When invoked as "git add -i", each menu interactive menu
option prompts the user to select a list of files. This
includes the "patch" option, which gets the list before
starting the hunk-selection loop.
As "git add -p", it behaves differently, and jumps straight
to the hunk selection loop.
Since 0539d5e6d (i18n: add--interactive: mark patch prompt
for translation, 2016-12-14), the "add -i" case mistakenly
jumps to straight to the hunk-selection loop. Prior to that
commit the distinction between the two cases was managed by
the $patch_mode variable. That commit used $patch_mode for
something else, and moved the old meaning to the "$cmd"
variable. But it forgot to update the $patch_mode check
inside patch_update_cmd() which controls the file-list
behavior.
The simplest fix would be to change that line to check $cmd.
But while we're here, let's use a less obscure name for this
flag: $patch_mode_only, a boolean which tells whether we are
in full-interactive mode or only in patch-mode.
