We are about to adjust t0060 for the new default branch name `main`.
This name is two characters shorter and therefore needs two spaces more
padding to align correctly.
Adjusting the alignment before the big search-and-replace makes it
easier to verify that the final result does not leave any misaligned
lines behind.

In addition to the manual adjustment to let the `linux-gcc` CI job run
the test suite with `master` and then with `main`, this patch makes sure
that GIT_TEST_DEFAULT_INITIAL_BRANCH_NAME is set in all test scripts
that currently rely on the initial branch name being `master by default.
To determine which test scripts to mark up, the first step was to
force-set the default branch name to `master` in
- all test scripts that contain the keyword `master`,
- t4211, which expects `t/t4211/history.export` with a hard-coded ref to
initialize the default branch,
- t5560 because it sources `t/t556x_common` which uses `master`,
- t8002 and t8012 because both source `t/annotate-tests.sh` which also
uses `master`)
This trick was performed by this command:
$ sed -i '/^ *\. \.\/\(test-lib\|lib-\(bash\|cvs\|git-svn\)\|gitweb-lib\)\.sh$/i\
GIT_TEST_DEFAULT_INITIAL_BRANCH_NAME=master\
export GIT_TEST_DEFAULT_INITIAL_BRANCH_NAME\
' $(git grep -l master t/t[0-9]*.sh) \
t/t4211*.sh t/t5560*.sh t/t8002*.sh t/t8012*.sh
After that, careful, manual inspection revealed that some of the test
scripts containing the needle `master` do not actually rely on a
specific default branch name: either they mention `master` only in a
comment, or they initialize that branch specificially, or they do not
actually refer to the current default branch. Therefore, the
aforementioned modification was undone in those test scripts thusly:
$ git checkout HEAD -- \
t/t0027-auto-crlf.sh t/t0060-path-utils.sh \
t/t1011-read-tree-sparse-checkout.sh \

We excluded one set of test scripts in these commands, though: the range
of `git p4` tests. The reason? `git p4` stores the (foreign) remote
branch in the branch called `p4/master`, which is obviously not the
default branch. Manual analysis revealed that only five of these tests
actually require a specific default branch name to pass; They were
modified thusly:
$ sed -i '/^ *\. \.\/lib-git-p4\.sh$/i\
GIT_TEST_DEFAULT_INITIAL_BRANCH_NAME=master\
export GIT_TEST_DEFAULT_INITIAL_BRANCH_NAME\

Since 610e2b9240 (blame: validate and peel the object names on the
ignore list, 2020-09-24) git blame reports checks if objects specified
with --ignore-rev and in files loaded with --ignore-revs-file and config
option blame.ignoreRevsFile are actual objects and dies if they aren't.
The intent is to report typos to the user.
This also breaks the ability to use a single ignore file for multiple
repositories. Typos are presumably less likely in files than on the
command line, so alerting is less useful here. Restore that feature by
skipping non-commits without dying.

Two blocks in t5570 want to align the closing double quotes, padding

After rebasing, ORIG_HEAD is supposed to point to the old HEAD of the
rebased branch. The code used find_unique_abbrev() to obtain the
object name of the old HEAD and wrote to both
.git/rebase-merge/orig-head (used by `rebase --abort` to go back to
the previous state) and to ORIG_HEAD. The buffer find_unique_abbrev()
gives back is volatile, unfortunately, and was overwritten after the
former file is written but before ORIG_FILE is written, leaving an
incorrect object name in it.
Avoid relying on the volatile buffer of find_unique_abbrev(), and
instead supply our own buffer to keep the object name.
I think that all of the users of head_hash should actually be using
opts->orig_head instead as passing a string rather than a struct
object_id around is a hang over from the scripted implementation. This
patch just fixes the immediate bug and adds a regression test based on
Caspar's reproduction example[1]. The users will be converted to use
struct object_id and head_hash removed in the next few commits.

We've never intended to support diff's --output option in format-patch.
And until baa4adc66a (parse-options: disable option abbreviation with
PARSE_OPT_KEEP_UNKNOWN, 2019-01-27), it was impossible to trigger. We
first parse the format-patch options before handing the remainder off to
setup_revisions(). Before that commit, we'd accept "--output=foo" as an
abbreviation for "--output-directory=foo". But afterwards, we don't
check abbreviations, and --output gets passed to the diff code.
This results in nonsense behavior and bugs. The diff code will have
opened a filehandle at rev.diffopt.file, but we'll overwrite that with
our own handles that we open for each individual patch file. So the
--output file will always just be empty. But worse, the diff code also
sets rev.diffopt.close_file, so log_tree_commit() will close the
filehandle itself. And then the main loop in cmd_format_patch() will try
to close it again, resulting in a double-free.
The simplest solution would be to just disallow --output with
format-patch, as nobody ever intended it to work. However, we have
accidentally documented it (because format-patch includes diff-options).
And it does work with "git log", which writes the whole output to the
specified file. It's easy enough to make that work for format-patch,
too: it's really the same as --stdout, but pointed at a specific file.
We can detect the use of the --output option by the "close_file" flag
(note that we can't use rev.diffopt.file, since the diff setup will
otherwise set it to stdout). So we just need to unset that flag, but
don't have to do anything else. Our situation is otherwise exactly like
--stdout (note that we don't fclose() the file, but nor does the stdout
case; exiting the program takes care of that for us).

The --stdout and --output-directory options are mutually exclusive, but
it's hard to tell from reading the code. We have three separate
conditionals that check for use_stdout, and it's only after we've set up
the output_directory fully that we check whether the user also specified
--stdout.
Instead, let's check the exclusion explicitly first, then have a single
conditional that handles stdout versus an output directory. This is
slightly easier to follow now, and also will keep things sane when we
add another output mode in a future patch.
We'll add a few tests as well, covering the mutual exclusion and the
fact that we are not confused by a configured output directory.

The -L option is documented to accept no pathspec, but the
command line option parser has allowed the combination without
checking so far. Ensure that there is no pathspec when the -L
option is in effect to fix this.
Incidentally, this change fixes another bug in the command line
option parser, which has allowed the -L option used together
with the --follow option. Because the latter requires exactly
one path given, but the former takes no pathspec, they become
mutually incompatible automatically. Because the -L option
follows renames on its own, there is no reason to give --follow
at the same time.
The new tests say they may fail with "-L and --follow being
incompatible" instead of "-L and pathspec being incompatible".
Currently the expected failure can come only from the latter, but
this is to futureproof them, in case we decide to add code to
explicititly die on -L and --follow used together.

As part of the effort to change the default branch name to `main`, let's
prepare t5515.
In addition to adjusting the references to the branch name itself, this
also requires two commit hashes to be adjusted (actually four, as there
is a SHA-1 _and_ a SHA-256 of both).
That trick was performed by running
sed -i -e 's/master/main/g' -e 's/Master/Main/g' \
-e 's/6c9dec2b923228c9ff994c6cfe4ae16c12408dc5/ecf3b3627b498bdcb735cc4343bf165f76964e9a/g' \

These commit hashes have been determined manually, of course, by running
the test after adjusting only the branch names, and then copying the
hashes from the log of the failed run.
Note: this patch only touches the t5515 script so far, not the
supporting material in t/t5515/. The resulting patch would have weighed
over 100kB and therefore the Git mailing list would have dropped it. The
files in t/t5515/ will be adjusted in the next two commits. As t5515
would fail without these adjustments, we temporarily skip it via the
`PREPARE_FOR_MAIN_BRANCH` prereq.
