Recent addition of "directory rename" heuristics to the
merge-recursive backend makes the command susceptible to false
positives and false negatives. In the context of "git am -3",
which does not know about surrounding unmodified paths and thus
cannot inform the merge machinery about the full trees involved,
this risk is particularly severe. As such, the heuristic is
disabled for "git am -3" to keep the machinery "more stupid but
predictable".

Using the more restrictive oideq() should, in the long run,
give the compiler more opportunities to optimize these
callsites. For now, this conversion should be a complete
noop with respect to the generated code.
The result is also perhaps a little more readable, as it
avoids the "zero is equal" idiom. Since it's so prevalent in
C, I think seasoned programmers tend not to even notice it
anymore, but it can sometimes make for awkward double
negations (e.g., we can drop a few !!oidcmp() instances
here).
This patch was generated almost entirely by the included
coccinelle patch. This mechanical conversion should be
completely safe, because we check explicitly for cases where
oidcmp() is compared to 0, which is what oideq() is doing
under the hood. Note that we don't have to catch "!oidcmp()"
separately; coccinelle's standard isomorphisms make sure the
two are treated equivalently.
I say "almost" because I did hand-edit the coccinelle output
to fix up a few style violations (it mostly keeps the
original formatting, but sometimes unwraps long lines).

When the sparse checkout feature is in use, "git cherry-pick" and

is excluded from checkout requires content level merge, which is
resolved as the same as the HEAD version, without materializing the

deleted. This has been corrected by preserving the skip_worktree

merge-recursive takes any files marked as unmerged by unpack_trees,
tries to figure out whether they can be resolved (e.g. using renames
or a file-level merge), and then if they can be it will delete the old
cache entries and writes new ones. This means that any ce_flags for
those cache entries are essentially cleared when merging.
Unfortunately, if a file was marked as skip_worktree and it needs a
file-level merge but the merge results in the same version of the file
that was found in HEAD, we skip updating the worktree (because the
file was unchanged) but clear the skip_worktree bit (because of the
delete-cache-entry-and-write-new-one). This makes git treat the file
as having a local change in the working copy, namely a delete, when it
should appear as unchanged despite not being present. Avoid this
problem by copying the skip_worktree flag in this case.

builtin/merge.c says that when we are about to perform a merge:
...the index must be in sync with the head commit. The strategies are
responsible to ensure this.
merge-recursive has always relied on unpack_trees() to enforce this
requirement, except in the case of an "Already up to date!" merge.
unpack-trees.c does not actually enforce this requirement, though. It
allows for a pair of exceptions, in cases which it refers to as #14(ALT)
and #2ALT. Documentation/technical/trivial-merge.txt can be consulted for
the precise meanings of the various case numbers and their meanings for
unpack-trees.c, but we have a high-level description of the intent behind
these two exceptions in a combined and summarized form in
Documentation/git-merge.txt:
...[merge will] abort if there are any changes registered in the index
relative to the `HEAD` commit. (One exception is when the changed index
entries are in the state that would result from the merge already.)
While this high-level description does describe conditions under which it
would be safe to allow the index to diverge from HEAD, it does not match
what is actually implemented. In particular, unpack-trees.c has no
knowledge of renames, and these two exceptions were written assuming that
no renames take place. Once renames get into the mix, it is no longer
safe to allow the index to not match for #2ALT. We could modify
unpack-trees to only allow #14(ALT) as an exception, but that would be
more strict than required for the resolve strategy (since the resolve
strategy doesn't handle renames at all). Therefore, unpack_trees.c seems
like the wrong place to fix this.
Further, if someone fixes the combination of break and rename detection
and modifies merge-recursive to take advantage of the combination, then it
will also no longer be safe to allow the index to not match for #14(ALT)
when the recursive strategy is in use. Therefore, leaving one of the
exceptions in place with the recursive merge strategy feels like we are
just leaving a latent bug in the code for folks in the future to stumble
across.
It may be possible to fix both unpack-trees and merge-recursive in a way
that implements the exception as stated in Documentation/git-merge.txt,
but it would be somewhat complex, possibly also buggy at first, and
ultimately, not all that valuable. Instead, just enforce the requirement
stated in builtin/merge.c; error out if the index does not match the HEAD
commit, just like the 'ours' and 'octopus' strategies do.
Some testcase fixups were in order:
t7611: had many tests designed to show that `git merge --abort` could
not always restore the index and working tree to the state they
were in before the merge started. The tests that were associated
with having changes in the index before the merge started are no
longer applicable, so they have been removed.
t7504: had a few tests that had stray staged changes that were not
actually part of the test under consideration
t6044: We no longer expect stray staged changes to sometimes result
in the merge continuing. Also, fix a case where a merge
didn't abort but should have.

`git merge-recursive` does a three-way merge between user-specified trees
base, head, and remote. Since the user is allowed to specify head, we can
not necesarily assume that head == HEAD.
Modify index_has_changes() to take an extra argument specifying the tree
to compare against. If NULL, it will compare to HEAD. We then use this
from merge-recursive to make sure we compare to the user-specified head.

case when merge-recursive didn't rely on unpack_trees() to enforce the
index == HEAD requirement, and thus that it needed to do that enforcement
itself. Unfortunately, it returned the wrong exit status, signalling that
the merge completed but had conflicts, rather than that it was aborted.

Modify index_has_changes() to take a struct istate* instead of just
operating on the_index. This is only a partial conversion, though,
because we call do_diff_cache() which implicitly assumes work is to be
done on the_index. Ongoing work is being done elsewhere to do the
remainder of the conversion, and thus is not duplicated here. Instead,
a simple check is put in place until that work is complete.

It has been observed that the time spent loading an index with a large
number of entries is partly dominated by malloc() calls. This change
is in preparation for using memory pools to reduce the number of
malloc() calls made to allocate cahce entries when loading an index.
Add an API to allocate and discard cache entries, abstracting the
details of managing the memory backing the cache entries. This commit
does actually change how memory is managed - this will be done in a
later commit in the series.
This change makes the distinction between cache entries that are
associated with an index and cache entries that are not associated with
an index. A main use of cache entries is with an index, and we can
optimize the memory management around this. We still have other cases
where a cache entry is not persisted with an index, and so we need to
handle the "transient" use case as well.
To keep the congnitive overhead of managing the cache entries, there
will only be a single discard function. This means there must be enough
information kept with the cache entry so that we know how to discard
them.
A summary of the main functions in the API is:
make_cache_entry: create cache entry for use in an index. Uses specified
parameters to populate cache_entry fields.
make_empty_cache_entry: Create an empty cache entry for use in an index.
Returns cache entry with empty fields.
make_transient_cache_entry: create cache entry that is not used in an
index. Uses specified parameters to populate
cache_entry fields.
make_empty_transient_cache_entry: create cache entry that is not used in
an index. Returns cache entry with
empty fields.
discard_cache_entry: A single function that knows how to discard a cache
entry regardless of how it was allocated.

These functions were added because processing of these conflicts needed
to be deferred until process_entry() in order to get D/F conflicts and
such right. The number of these has grown over time, and now include
some whose name is misleading:
* conflict_rename_normal() is for handling normal file renames; a
typical rename may need content merging, but we expect conflicts
from that to be more the exception than the rule.
* conflict_rename_via_dir() will not be a conflict; it was just an
add that turned into a move due to directory rename detection.
(If there was a file in the way of the move, that would have been
detected and reported earlier.)
* conflict_rename_rename_2to1 and conflict_rename_add (the latter
of which doesn't exist yet but has been submitted before and I
intend to resend) technically might not be conflicts if the
colliding paths happen to match exactly.
Rename this family of functions to handle_rename_*().
Also rename handle_renames() to detect_and_process_renames() both to make

from all the handle_rename_*() functions which are called from

The strings allocated in `setup_unpack_trees_porcelain()` are never

non-trivial user is `unpack_trees_start()`, where we should place the
new call in `unpack_trees_finish()`.
We keep the string pointers in an array, mixing pointers to static
memory and memory that we allocate on the heap. We also keep several
copies of the individual pointers. So we need to make sure that we do
not free what we must not free and that we do not double-free. Let a
separate argv_array take ownership of all the strings we create so that
we can easily free them.
Zero the whole array of string pointers to make sure that we do not
leave any dangling pointers.
Note that we only take responsibility for the memory allocated in
`setup_unpack_trees_porcelain()` and not any other members of the
