c87b653c46 builtin/describe.c: rename oid to avoid variable shadowing
The function `describe` has already a variable named `oid` declared at
the beginning of the function for an object id.  Do not shadow that
variable with a pointer to an object id.

1c0b983a77 Merge branch 'jk/ref-filter-colors-fix'
This is the "theoretically more correct" approach of simply
stepping back to the state before plumbing commands started paying
attention to "color.ui" configuration variable.

Let's run with this one.

b521fd1228 tag: respect color.ui config
Since 11b087adfd (ref-filter: consult want_color() before
emitting colors, 2017-07-13), we expect that setting
"color.ui" to "always" will enable color tag formats even
without a tty.  As that commit was built on top of
136c8c8b8f (color: check color.ui in git_default_config(),
2017-07-13) from the same series, we didn't need to touch
tag's config parsing at all.

However, since we reverted 136c8c8b8f, we now need to
explicitly call git_color_default_config() to make this
work.

Let's do so, and also restore the test dropped in 0c88bf5050
(provide --color option for all ref-filter users,
2017-10-03). That commit swapped out our "color.ui=always"
test for "--color" in preparation for "always" going away.
But since it is here to stay, we should test both cases.

Note that for-each-ref also lost its color.ui support as
part of reverting 136c8c8b8f. But as a plumbing command, it
should _not_ respect the color.ui config. Since it also
gained a --color option in 0c88bf5050, that's the correct
way to ask it for color. We'll continue to test that, and
confirm that "color.ui" is not respected.

33c643bb08 Revert "color: check color.ui in git_default_config()"
This reverts commit 136c8c8b8f.

That commit was trying to address a bug caused by 4c7f1819b3
(make color.ui default to 'auto', 2013-06-10), in which
plumbing like diff-tree defaulted to "auto" color, but did
not respect a "color.ui" directive to disable it.

But it also meant that we started respecting "color.ui" set
to "always". This was a known problem, but 4c7f1819b3 argued
that nobody ought to be doing that. However, that turned out
to be wrong, and we got a number of bug reports related to
"add -p" regressing in v2.14.2.

Let's revert 136c8c8b8, fixing the regression to "add -p".
This leaves the problem from 4c7f1819b3 unfixed, but:

  1. It's a pretty obscure problem in the first place. I
     only noticed it while working on the color code, and we
     haven't got a single bug report or complaint about it.

  2. We can make a more moderate fix on top by respecting
     "never" but not "always" for plumbing commands. This
     is just the minimal fix to go back to the working state
     we had before v2.14.2.

Note that this isn't a pure revert. We now have a test in
t3701 which shows off the "add -p" regression. This can be
flipped to success.

19716b21a4 cleanup: fix possible overflow errors in binary search
A common mistake when writing binary search is to allow possible
integer overflow by using the simple average:

	mid = (min + max) / 2;

Instead, use the overflow-safe version:

	mid = min + (max - min) / 2;

This translation is safe since the operation occurs inside a loop
conditioned on "min < max". The included changes were found using
the following git grep:

	git grep '/ *2;' '*.c'

Making this cleanup will prevent future review friction when a new
binary search is contructed based on existing code.

a9155c50bd branch: reset instead of release a strbuf
Our documentation advises to not re-use a strbuf, after strbuf_release
has been called on it. Use the proper reset instead.

Currently 'strbuf_release' releases and re-initializes the strbuf, so it
is safe, but slow. 'strbuf_reset' only resets the internal length variable,
such that this could also be accounted for as a micro-optimization.

The error messages shown when the branch command is misused

That's because it used the the phrase "too many branches"
assuming all parameters to be "valid" branch names. It's not
always the case as exemplified below,

        $ git branch
          foo
        * master

        $ git branch -m foo foo old
        fatal: too many branches for a rename operation

Change the messages to be more general thus making no assumptions

0c88bf5050 provide --color option for all ref-filter users
When ref-filter learned about want_color() in 11b087adfd
(ref-filter: consult want_color() before emitting colors,
2017-07-13), it became useful to be able to turn colors off
and on for specific commands. For git-branch, you can do so
with --color/--no-color.

But for git-for-each-ref and git-tag, the other users of
ref-filter, you have no option except to tweak the
"color.ui" config setting. Let's give both of these commands
the usual color command-line options.

This is a bit more obvious as a method for overriding the
config. And it also prepares us for the behavior of "always"
changing (so that we are still left with a way of forcing
color when our output goes to a non-terminal).

27344d6a6c git: add --no-optional-locks option
Some tools like IDEs or fancy editors may periodically run
commands like "git status" in the background to keep track
of the state of the repository. Some of these commands may
refresh the index and write out the result in an
opportunistic way: if they can get the index lock, then they
update the on-disk index with any updates they find. And if
not, then their in-core refresh is lost and just has to be
recomputed by the next caller.

But taking the index lock may conflict with other operations
in the repository. Especially ones that the user is doing
themselves, which _aren't_ opportunistic. In other words,
"git status" knows how to back off when somebody else is
holding the lock, but other commands don't know that status
would be happy to drop the lock if somebody else wanted it.

There are a couple possible solutions:

  1. Have some kind of "pseudo-lock" that allows other
     commands to tell status that they want the lock.

     This is likely to be complicated and error-prone to
     implement (and maybe even impossible with just
     dotlocks to work from, as it requires some
     inter-process communication).

  2. Avoid background runs of commands like "git status"
     that want to do opportunistic updates, preferring
     instead plumbing like diff-files, etc.

     This is awkward for a couple of reasons. One is that
     "status --porcelain" reports a lot more about the
     repository state than is available from individual
     plumbing commands. And two is that we actually _do_
     want to see the refreshed index. We just don't want to
     take a lock or write out the result. Whereas commands
     like diff-files expect us to refresh the index
     separately and write it to disk so that they can depend
     on the result. But that write is exactly what we're
     trying to avoid.

  3. Ask "status" not to lock or write the index.

     This is easy to implement. The big downside is that any
     work done in refreshing the index for such a call is
     lost when the process exits. So a background process
     may end up re-hashing a changed file multiple times
     until the user runs a command that does an index
     refresh themselves.

This patch implements the option 3. The idea (and the test)
is largely stolen from a Git for Windows patch by Johannes
Schindelin, 67e5ce7f63 (status: offer *not* to lock the
index and update it, 2016-08-12). The twist here is that
instead of making this an option to "git status", it becomes
a "git" option and matching environment variable.

The reason there is two-fold:

  1. An environment variable is carried through to
     sub-processes. And whether an invocation is a
     background process or not should apply to the whole
     process tree. So you could do "git --no-optional-locks
     foo", and if "foo" is a script or alias that calls
     "status", you'll still get the effect.

  2. There may be other programs that want the same
     treatment.

     I've punted here on finding more callers to convert,
     since "status" is the obvious one to call as a repeated
     background job. But "git diff"'s opportunistic refresh
     of the index may be a good candidate.

The test is taken from 67e5ce7f63, and it's worth repeating
Johannes's explanation:

  Note that the regression test added in this commit does
  not *really* verify that no index.lock file was written;
  that test is not possible in a portable way. Instead, we
  verify that .git/index is rewritten *only* when `git
  status` is run without `--no-optional-locks`.

8a1a8d2ad1 worktree: check the result of read_in_full()
We try to read "len" bytes into a buffer and just assume
that it happened correctly. In practice this should usually
be the case, since we just stat'd the file to get the
length.  But we could be fooled by transient errors or by
other processes racily truncating the file.

Let's be more careful. There's a slim chance this could
catch a real error, but it also prevents people and tools
from getting worried while reading the code.

228740b67b worktree: use xsize_t to access file size
To read the "gitdir" file into memory, we stat the file and
allocate a buffer. But we store the size in an "int", which
may be truncated. We should use a size_t and xsize_t(),
which will detect truncation.

An overflow is unlikely for a "gitdir" file, but it's a good
practice to model.

This is discussed further in 561598cfcf (read_pack_header:
handle signed/unsigned comparison in read result,
2017-09-13).

Each of these instances is actually fine in practice:

 - in get-tar-commit-id, the HEADERSIZE macro expands to a
   signed integer. If it were switched to an unsigned type
   (e.g., a size_t), then it would be a bug.

 - the other two callers check for a short read only after
   handling a negative return separately. This is a fine
   practice, but we'd prefer to model "!=" as a general
   rule.

So all of these cases can be considered cleanups and not
actual bugfixes.

7199203937 object_array: add and use object_array_pop()
In a couple of places, we pop objects off an object array `foo` by
decreasing `foo.nr`. We access `foo.nr` in many places, but most if not
all other times we do so read-only, e.g., as we iterate over the array.
But when we change `foo.nr` behind the array's back, it feels a bit
nasty and looks like it might leak memory.

Leaks happen if the popped element has an allocated `name` or `path`.
At the moment, that is not the case. Still, 1) the object array might
gain more fields that want to be freed, 2) a code path where we pop
might start using names or paths, 3) one of these code paths might be
copied to somewhere where we do, and 4) using a dedicated function for
popping is conceptually cleaner.

Introduce and use `object_array_pop()` instead. Release memory in the
new function. Document that popping an object leaves the associated
elements in limbo.

The converted places were identified by grepping for "\.nr\>" and
looking for "--".

Make the new function return NULL on an empty array. This is consistent
with `pop_commit()` and allows the following:

	while ((o = object_array_pop(&foo)) != NULL) {
		// do something
	}

But as noted above, we don't need to go out of our way to avoid reading
`foo.nr`. This is probably more readable:

	while (foo.nr) {
		... o = object_array_pop(&foo);
		// do something
	}

The name of `object_array_pop()` does not quite align with
`add_object_array()`. That is unfortunate. On the other hand, it matches
`object_array_clear()`. Arguably it's `add_...` that is the odd one out,
since it reads like it's used to "add" an "object array". For that
reason, side with `object_array_clear()`.

dcb572ab94 object_array: use object_array_clear(), not free()
Instead of freeing `foo.objects` for an object array `foo` (sometimes
conditionally), call `object_array_clear(&foo)`. This means we don't
poke as much into the implementation, which is already a good thing, but
also that we release the individual entries as well, thereby fixing at
least one memory-leak (in diff-lib.c).

If someone is holding on to a pointer to an element's `name` or `path`,
that is now a dangling pointer, i.e., we'd be turning an unpleasant
situation into an outright bug. To the best of my understanding no such
long-term pointers are being taken.

The way we handle `study` in builting/reflog.c still looks like it might
leak. That will be addressed in the next commit.

b2ccdf7fc1 leak_pending: use object_array_clear(), not free()
Setting `leak_pending = 1` tells `prepare_revision_walk()` not to
release the `pending` array, and makes that the caller's responsibility.
See 4a43d374f (revision: add leak_pending flag, 2011-10-01) and
353f5657a (bisect: use leak_pending flag, 2011-10-01).

Commit 1da1e07c8 (clean up name allocation in prepare_revision_walk,
2014-10-15) fixed a memory leak in `prepare_revision_walk()` by
switching from `free()` to `object_array_clear()`. However, where we use
the `leak_pending`-mechanism, we're still only calling `free()`.

Use `object_array_clear()` instead. Copy some helpful comments from
353f5657a to the other callers that we update to clarify the memory
responsibilities, and to highlight that the commits are not affected
when we clear the array -- it is indeed correct to both tidy up the
commit flags and clear the object array.

Document `leak_pending` in revision.h to help future users get this
right.

dd1055ed59 builtin/commit: fix memory leak in prepare_index()
Release `pathspec` and the string list `partial`.

When we clear the string list, make sure we do not free the `util`
pointers. That would result in double-freeing, since we set them up as
`item->util = item` in `list_paths()`.

Initialize the string list early, so that we can always release it. That
introduces some unnecessary overhead in various code paths, but means
there is one and only one way out of the function. If we ever accumulate
more things we need to free, it should be straightforward to do so.

e5435ff1fc branch: fix "copy" to never touch HEAD
When creating a new branch B by copying the branch A that happens to
be the current branch, it also updates HEAD to point at the new
branch.  It probably was made this way because "git branch -c A B"
piggybacked its implementation on "git branch -m A B",

This does not match the usual expectation.  If I were sitting on a
blue chair, and somebody comes and repaints it to red, I would
accept ending up sitting on a chair that is now red (I am also OK to
stand, instead, as there no longer is my favourite blue chair).  But
if somebody creates a new red chair, modelling it after the blue
chair I am sitting on, I do not expect to be booted off of the blue
chair and ending up on sitting on the new red one.

Let's fix this before it hits 'next'.  Those who want to create a
new branch and switch to it can do "git checkout B" after doing a
"git branch -c B", and if that operation is so useful and deserves a
short-hand way to do so, perhaps extend "git checkout -b B" to copy
configurations while creating the new branch B.
