eff451101d git-p4: don't use name-rev to get current branch
git-p4 was using "git name-rev" to find out the current branch.

That is not safe, since if multiple branches or tags point at
the same revision, the result obtained might not be what is
expected.

Instead use "git symbolic-ref".

3d553cceb5 git-p4: add failing test for name-rev rather than symbolic-ref
Using name-rev to find the current git branch means that git-p4
does not correctly get the current branch name if there are
multiple branches pointing at HEAD, or a tag.

This change adds a test case which demonstrates the problem.
Configuring which branches are allowed to be submitted from goes
wrong, as git-p4 gets confused about which branch is in use.

This appears to be the only place that git-p4 actually cares
about the current branch.

ef09036cf3 t6500: wait for detached auto gc at the end of the test script
The last test in 't6500-gc', 'background auto gc does not run if
gc.log is present and recent but does if it is old', added in
a831c06a2 (gc: ignore old gc.log files, 2017-02-10), may sporadically
trigger an error message from the test harness:

  rm: cannot remove 'trash directory.t6500-gc/.git/objects': Directory not empty

The test in question ends with executing an auto gc in the backround,
which occasionally takes so long that it's still running when
'test_done' is about to remove the trash directory.  This 'rm -rf
$trash' in the foreground might race with the detached auto gc to
create and delete files and directories, and gc might (re-)create a
path that 'rm' already visited and removed, triggering the above error
message when 'rm' attempts to remove its parent directory.

Commit bb05510e5 (t5510: run auto-gc in the foreground, 2016-05-01)
fixed the same problem in a different test script by simply
disallowing background gc.  Unfortunately, what worked there is not
applicable here, because the purpose of this test is to check the
behavior of a detached auto gc.

Make sure that the test doesn't continue before the gc is finished in
the background with a clever bit of shell trickery:

  - Open fd 9 in the shell, to be inherited by the background gc
    process, because our daemonize() only closes the standard fds 0,
    1 and 2.
  - Duplicate this fd 9 to stdout.
  - Read 'git gc's stdout, and thus fd 9, through a command
    substitution.  We don't actually care about gc's output, but this
    construct has two useful properties:
  - This read blocks until stdout or fd 9 are open.  While stdout is
    closed after the main gc process creates the background process
    and exits, fd 9 remains open until the backround process exits.
  - The variable assignment from the command substitution gets its
    exit status from the command executed within the command
    substitution, i.e. a failing main gc process will cause the test
    to fail.

Note, that this fd trickery doesn't work on Windows, because due to
MSYS limitations the git process only inherits the standard fds 0, 1
and 2 from the shell.  Luckily, it doesn't matter in this case,
because on Windows daemonize() is basically a noop, thus 'git gc
--auto' always runs in the foreground.

And since we can now continue the test reliably after the detached gc
finished, check that there is only a single packfile left at the end,
i.e. that the detached gc actually did what it was supposed to do.
Also add a comment at the end of the test script to warn developers of
future tests about this issue of long running detached gc processes.

5ce10c0a29 pathspec: fix segfault in clear_pathspec
In 'clear_pathspec()' the incorrect index parameter is used to bound an
inner-loop which is used to free a 'struct attr_match' value field.
Using the incorrect index parameter (in addition to being incorrect)
occasionally causes segmentation faults when attempting to free an
invalid pointer.  Fix this by using the correct index parameter 'i'.

22e5ae5c8e connect.c: handle errors from split_cmdline
Commit e9d9a8a4d (connect: handle putty/plink also in
GIT_SSH_COMMAND, 2017-01-02) added a call to
split_cmdline(), but checks only for a non-zero return to
see if we got any output. Since the function returns
negative values (and a NULL argv) on error, we end up
dereferencing NULL and segfaulting.

Arguably we could report on the parsing error here, but it's
probably not worth it. This is a best-effort attempt to see
if we are using plink. So we can simply return here with
"no, it wasn't plink" and let the shell actually complain
about the bogus quoting.

2f40e95472 files-backend: avoid ref api targeting main ref store
A small step towards making files-backend work as a non-main ref store
using the newly added store-aware API.

For the record, `join` and `nm` on refs.o and files-backend.o tell me
that files-backend no longer uses functions that default to
get_main_ref_store().

I'm not yet comfortable at the idea of removing
files_assert_main_repository() (or converting REF_STORE_MAIN to
REF_STORE_WRITE). More staring and testing is required before that can
happen. Well, except peel_ref(). I'm pretty sure that function is safe.

9e7ec634a1 files-backend: replace submodule_allowed check in files_downcast()
files-backend.c is unlearning submodules. Instead of having a specific
check for submodules to see what operation is allowed, files backend
now takes a set of flags at init. Each operation will check if the
required flags is present before performing.

For now we have four flags: read, write and odb access. Main ref store
has all flags, obviously, while submodule stores are read-only and have
access to odb (*).

The "main" flag stays because many functions in the backend calls
frontend ones without a ref store, so these functions always target the
main ref store. Ideally the flag should be gone after ref-store-aware
api is in place and used by backends.

(*) Submodule code needs for_each_ref. Try take REF_STORE_ODB flag
out. At least t3404 would fail. The "have access to odb" in submodule is
a bit hacky since we don't know from he whether add_submodule_odb() has
been called.

3e8b7d3c77 has_sha1_file: don't bother if we are not in a repository
Most callers to this function already require that they are in a
git repository, but there is an exception: "git apply" uses
has_sha1_file to avoid work if the result of applying a binary
patch is already present in the repository. When run outside any
repository, this produces an error:

 fatal: BUG: setup_git_env called without repository

0301f1fd92 git-add--interactive.perl: add missing dot in a message
One message appears twice in the translations and the only
difference is a dot at the end.  So add this dot to make
the messages being identical.

882add136f difftool: fix use-after-free
The left and right base directories were pointed to the buf field of
two strbufs, which were subject to change.

A contrived test case shows the problem where a file with a long enough
name to force the strbuf to grow is up-to-date (hence the code path is
used where the work tree's version of the file is reused), and then a
file that is not up-to-date needs to be written (hence the code path is
used where checkout_entry() uses the previously recorded base_dir that
is invalid by now).

Let's just copy the base_dir strings for use with checkout_entry(),
never touch them until the end, and release them then. This is an easily
verifiable fix (as opposed to the next-obvious alternative: to re-set
base_dir after every loop iteration).

This fixes https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/issues/1124

47242cd103 diff-files: document --ours etc.
git-diff understands "--ours", "--theirs" and "--base" for files with
conflicts. But so far they were not documented for the central diff
command but only for diff-files.
