b3b753b104 Fit to Plan 9's ANSI/POSIX compatibility layer
tr(1) of ANSI/POSIX environment, aka APE, don't support \n literal.
It's handles only octal(\ooo) or hexadecimal(\xhhhh) numbers.

And its sed(1)'s label is limited to maximum seven characters.
Therefore I replaced some labels to drop a character.

* close -> cl
* continue -> cont (cnt is used for count)
* line -> ln
* hered -> hdoc
* shell -> sh
* string -> str

709df95b78 help: move list_config_help to builtin/help
Starting in 3ac68a93fd, help.o began to depend on builtin/branch.o,
builtin/clean.o, and builtin/config.o. This meant that help.o was
unusable outside of the context of the main Git executable.

To make help.o usable by other commands again, move list_config_help()
into builtin/help.c (where it makes sense to assume other builtin libraries
are present).

When command-list.h is included but a member is not used, we start to
hear a compiler warning. Since the config list is generated in a fairly
different way than the command list, and since commands and config
options are semantically different, move the config list into its own
header and move the generator into its own script and build rule.

For reasons explained in 976aaedc (msvc: add a Makefile target to
pre-generate the Visual Studio solution, 2019-07-29), some build
artifacts we consider non-source files cannot be generated in the
Visual Studio environment, and we already have some Makefile tweaks
to help Visual Studio to use generated command-list.h header file.
Do the same to a new generated file, config-list.h, introduced by
this change.

When built with NO_CURL or with NO_UNIX_SOCKETS, some commands are
skipped from the build. It does not make sense to list them in the

76b993afd6 Update makefile in preparation for Documentation/config/*.txt
config.txt is going to be broken down in smaller pieces and put under
Documentation/config directory. Update build rules to take these files
into account.

A dummy file is added to make sure wildcard expansion is predictable
(depending on shell setting it could expand to nothing or becomes a
path if config directory is empty). The file will be deleted once the
move is over.

eb90ea79c5 generate-cmdlist.sh: collect config from all config.txt files
This script uses Documentation/config.txt as input for "git help
--config" and "git config" completion but it misses the fact that
config.txt includes other txt files. Include all *config.txt as input
when scanning for config keys. This could produce false positives, but
as long as we stick to the blah-config.txt naming convention, we
should be ok.

While at there, move diff.* from config.txt to diff-config.txt where
all other diff config keys are.

3ac68a93fd help: add --config to list all available config
Sometimes it helps to list all available config vars so the user can
search for something they want. The config man page can also be used
but it's harder to search if you want to focus on the variable name,
for example.

This is not the best way to collect the available config since it's
not precise. Ideally we should have a centralized list of config in C
code (pretty much like 'struct option'), but that's a lot more work.
This will do for now.

This allows us to select any group of commands by a category defined
in command-list.txt. This is an internal/hidden option so we don't
have to be picky about the category name or worried about exposing too
much.

This will be used later by git-completion.bash to retrieve certain
command groups.

cfb22a02ab help: use command-list.h for common command list
The previous commit added code generation for all_cmd_desc[] which
includes almost everything we need to generate common command list.
Convert help code to use that array instead and drop common_cmds[] array.

The description of each common command group is removed from
command-list.txt. This keeps this file format simpler. common-cmds.h
will not be generated correctly after this change due to the
command-list.txt format change. But it does not matter and
common-cmds.h will be removed.

f318d73915 generate-cmds.sh: export all commands to command-list.h
The current generate-cmds.sh generates just enough to print "git help"
output. That is, it only extracts help text for common commands.

The script is now updated to extract help text for all commands and
keep command classification a new file, command-list.h. This will be
useful later:

- "git help -a" could print a short summary of all commands instead of
  just the common ones.

- "git" could produce a list of commands of one or more category. One
  of its use is to reduce another command classification embedded in
  git-completion.bash.

The new file can be generated but is not used anywhere yet. The plan
is we migrate away from common-cmds.h. Then we can kill off
common-cmds.h build rules and generation code (and also delete
duplicate content in command-list.h which we keep for now to not mess
generate-cmds.sh up too much).

PS. The new fixed column requirement on command-list.txt is
technically not needed. But it helps simplify the code a bit at this
stage. We could lift this restriction later if we want to.

82aec45b7d generate-cmdlist: re-implement as shell script
527ec39 (generate-cmdlist: parse common group commands, 2015-05-21)
replaced generate-cmdlist.sh with a more functional Perl version,
generate-cmdlist.perl. The Perl version gleans named tags from a new
"common groups" section in command-list.txt and recognizes those
tags in "command list" section entries in place of the old 'common'
tag. This allows git-help to, not only recognize, but also group
common commands.

Although the tests require Perl, 527ec39 creates an unconditional
dependence upon Perl in the build system itself, which can not be
overridden with NO_PERL. Such a dependency may be undesirable; for
instance, the 'git-lite' package in the FreeBSD ports tree is
intended as a minimal Git installation (which may, for example, be
useful on servers needing only local clone and update capability),
which, historically, has not depended upon Perl[1].

Therefore, revive generate-cmdlist.sh and extend it to recognize
"common groups" and its named tags. Retire generate-cmdlist.perl.

527ec3980b generate-cmdlist: parse common group commands
Parse the group block to create the array of group descriptions:

static char *common_cmd_groups[] = {
    N_("starting a working area"),
    N_("working on the current change"),
    N_("working with others"),
    N_("examining the history and state"),
    N_("growing, marking and tweaking your history"),
};

then map each element of common_cmds[] to a group via its index:

static struct cmdname_help common_cmds[] = {
    {"add", N_("Add file contents to the index"), 1},
    {"branch", N_("List, create, or delete branches"), 4},
    {"checkout", N_("Checkout a branch or paths to the ..."), 4},
    {"clone", N_("Clone a repository into a new directory"), 0},
    {"commit", N_("Record changes to the repository"), 4},
    ...
};

so that 'git help' can print those commands grouped by theme.

Only commands tagged with an attribute from the group block are emitted to
common_cmds[].

9cba13ca5d standardize brace placement in struct definitions
In a struct definitions, unlike functions, the prevailing style is for
the opening brace to go on the same line as the struct name, like so:

 struct foo {
	int bar;
	char *baz;
 };

Indeed, grepping for 'struct [a-z_]* {$' yields about 5 times as many
matches as 'struct [a-z_]*$'.

16d258332e generate-cmdlist.sh: avoid selecting synopsis at wrong place
In "common" man pages there is luckily no "NAME" anywhere except at
beginning of documents. If there is another "NAME", sed could
mis-select it and lead to common-cmds.h corruption. So better nail it
at beginning of line, which would reduce corruption chance.

4df096a5ca Add git-archive
git-archive is a command to make TAR and ZIP archives of a git tree.
It helps prevent a proliferation of git-{format}-tree commands.

Instead of directly calling git-{tar,zip}-tree command, it defines
a very simple API, that archiver should implement and register in
"git-archive.c". This API is made up by 2 functions whose prototype
is defined in "archive.h" file.

 - The first one is used to parse 'extra' parameters which have
   signification only for the specific archiver. That would allow
   different archive backends to have different kind of options.

 - The second one is used to ask to an archive backend to build
   the archive given some already resolved parameters.

The main reason for making this API is to avoid using
git-{tar,zip}-tree commands, hence making them useless. Maybe it's
time for them to die ?

It also implements remote operations by defining a very simple
protocol: it first sends the name of the specific uploader followed
the repository name (git-upload-tar git://example.org/repo.git).
Then it sends options. It's done by sending a sequence of one
argument per packet, with prefix "argument ", followed by a flush.

The remote protocol is implemented in "git-archive.c" for client
side and is triggered by "--remote=<repo>" option. For example,
to fetch a TAR archive in a remote repo, you can issue:

$ git archive --format=tar --remote=git://xxx/yyy/zzz.git HEAD

We choose to not make a new command "git-fetch-archive" for example,
avoind one more GIT command which should be nice for users (less
commands to remember, keeps existing --remote option).
