If we encounter an error while checking out an explicit path, we print a
message to stderr but do not actually exit with a non-zero code. While
this is a plumbing command and the behavior goes all the way back to
33db5f4d90 (Add a "checkout-cache" command which does what the name
suggests., 2005-04-09), this is almost certainly an oversight:
- we _do_ return an exit code from checkout_file(); the caller just
never reads it
- errors while checking out all paths (with "-a") do result in a
non-zero exit code.
- it would be quite unusual not to use the exit code for an error,
as otherwise the caller has no idea the command failed except by
scraping stderr
To keep our tests simple and portable, we can use the most obvious
error: asking to checkout a path which is not in the index at all.

If checkout-index is given --stage=all for a specific path, it will try
to write stages 1-3 (if present) for that path to temporary files.
However, if the file is present only at stage 0, it writes nothing but
gives a confusing message:
$ git checkout-index --stage=all -- Makefile
git checkout-index: Makefile does not exist at stage 4
This is nonsense. There is no stage 4 (it's just an internal enum value
we use for "all"), and the documentation clearly states:
Paths which only have a stage 0 entry will always be omitted from the
output.
Here it's talking about the list of tempfiles written to stdout, but it
seems clear that this case was not meant to be an error. We even have a
test which covers it, but it only checks that the command reports an
exit code of 0, not its stderr. And it reports 0 only because of another
bug which fails to propagate errors (which will be fixed in a subsequent
patch).
So let's make the test more thorough. We'll also cover the case that we
found _no_ entry, not even a stage zero, which should still be an error.
However, because of the other bug, we'll have to mark this as expecting
failure for the moment.

Change the exit code for the likes of "git remote add/rename" to exit
with 2 if the remote in question doesn't exist, and 3 if it
does. Before we'd just die() and exit with the general 128 exit code.
This changes the output message from e.g.:
fatal: remote origin already exists.
To:
error: remote origin already exists.
Which I believe is a feature, since we generally use "fatal" for the
generic errors, and "error" for the more specific ones with a custom
exit code, but this part of the change may break code that already
relies on stderr parsing (not that we ever supported that...).
The motivation for this is a discussion around some code in GitLab's
gitaly which wanted to check this, and had to parse stderr to do so:
https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitaly/-/merge_requests/2695
It's worth noting as an aside that a method of checking this that
doesn't rely on that is to check with "git config" whether the value
in question does or doesn't exist. That introduces a TOCTOU race
condition, but on the other hand this code (e.g. "git remote add")
already has a TOCTOU race.
We go through the config.lock for the actual setting of the config,
but the pseudocode logic is:
read_config();
check_config_and_arg_sanity();
save_config();
So e.g. if a sleep() is added right after the remote_is_configured()
check in add() we'll clobber remote.NAME.url, and add another (usually
duplicate) remote.NAME.fetch entry (and other values, depending on
invocation).

There are a few differences between the new API in merge-ort and the old
API in merge-recursive. While the new API is more flexible, it might
feel like more work at times than the old API. merge-ort-wrappers
creates two convenience wrappers taking the exact same arguments as the
old merge_trees() and merge_recursive() functions and implements them
via the new API. This makes converting existing callsites easier, and
serves to highlight some of the differences in the API.

This is the beginning of a new merge strategy. While there are some API
differences, and the implementation has some differences in behavior, it
is essentially meant as an eventual drop-in replacement for
merge-recursive.c. However, it is being built to exist side-by-side
with merge-recursive so that we have plenty of time to find out how
those differences pan out in the real world while people can still fall
back to merge-recursive. (Also, I intend to avoid modifying
merge-recursive during this process, to keep it stable.)
The primary difference noticable here is that the updating of the
working tree and index is not done simultaneously with the merge
algorithm, but is a separate post-processing step. The new API is
designed so that one can do repeated merges (e.g. during a rebase or
cherry-pick) and only update the index and working tree one time at the
end instead of updating it with every intermediate result. Also, one
can perform a merge between two branches, neither of which match the
index or the working tree, without clobbering the index or working tree.
The next three commits will demonstrate various uses of this new API.

t3436: check --committer-date-is-author-date result more carefully
Similar to the previous commit, since the "recursive" backend relies on
unpack_trees() to check if unstaged or untracked files would be
overwritten by a merge, and unpack_trees() does not understand renames
-- it has false positives and false negatives. Once it has run, since
it updates as it goes, merge-recursive then has to handle completing the
merge as best it can despite extra changes in the working copy.
However, this is not just an issue for dirty files, but also for
untracked files because directory renames can cause file contents to
need to be written to a location that was not tracked on either side of
history.
Since the "ort" backend does the complete merge inmemory, and only
updates the index and working copy as a post-processing step, if there
are untracked files in the way it can simply abort the merge much like
checkout does.
Update t6423 to reflect the better merge abilities and expectations for
ort, while still leaving the best-case-as-good-as-recursive-can-do

until we are ready to deprecate and remove it.

The "recursive" backend relies on unpack_trees() to check if unstaged
changes would be overwritten by a merge, but unpack_trees() does not
understand renames -- and once it returns, it has already written many
updates to the working tree and index. As such, "recursive" had to do a
special 4-way merge where it would need to also treat the working copy
as an extra source of differences that we had to carefully avoid
overwriting and resulting in moving files to new locations to avoid
conflicts.
The "ort" backend, by contrast, does the complete merge inmemory, and
only updates the index and working copy as a post-processing step. If
there are dirty files in the way, it can simply abort the merge.

Conflict markers carry an extra annotation of the form
REF-OR-COMMIT:FILENAME
to help distinguish where the content is coming from, with the :FILENAME
piece being left off if it is the same for both sides of history (thus
only renames with content conflicts carry that part of the annotation).
However, there were cases where the :FILENAME annotation was
accidentally left off, due to merge-recursive's
every-codepath-needs-a-copy-of-all-special-case-code format.

When a file is renamed and has content conflicts, merge-recursive does
not have some stages for the old filename and some stages for the new
filename in the index; instead it copies all the stages corresponding to
the old filename over to the corresponding locations for the new
filename, so that there are three higher order stages all corresponding
to the new filename. Doing things this way makes it easier for the user
to access the different versions and to resolve the conflict (no need to
manually 'git rm' the old version as well as 'git add' the new one).
rename/deletes should be handled similarly -- there should be two stages
for the renamed file rather than just one. We do not want to
destabilize merge-recursive right now, so instead update relevant tests
to have different expectations depending on whether the "recursive" or
"ort" merge strategies are in use.

When files are renamed and modified, we need to do three-way content
merges to get the appropriate content in the right location. When we
have a rename/rename(1to2) conflict (both sides rename the same file,
but differently), that merged content should be placed in each of the
two resulting files. merge-recursive handled that fine when that was
all that was involved, but when one or more of the two resulting files
were ALSO involved in a directory/file conflict, it failed to propagate
the merged content to that file. Unfortunately, the one test in t6416
that touched on this combination of cases had been coded to not expect
the merged contents to be present.
Fix the test to check for the right behavior, and record how the
different merge backends will be expected to handle it.

merge-recursive.c is built on the idea of running unpack_trees() and
then "doing minor touch-ups" to get the result. Unfortunately,
unpack_trees() was run in an update-as-it-goes mode, leading
merge-recursive.c to follow suit and end up with an immediate evaluation
and fix-it-up-as-you-go design. Some things like directory/file
conflicts are not well representable in the index data structure, and
required special extra code to handle. But then when it was discovered
that rename/delete conflicts could also be involved in directory/file
conflicts, the special directory/file conflict handling code had to be
copied to the rename/delete codepath. ...and then it had to be copied
for modify/delete, and for rename/rename(1to2) conflicts, ...and yet it
still missed some. Further, when it was discovered that there were also
file/submodule conflicts and submodule/directory conflicts, we needed to
copy the special submodule handling code to all the special cases
throughout the codebase.
And then it was discovered that our handling of directory/file conflicts
was suboptimal because it would create untracked files to store the
contents of the conflicting file, which would not be cleaned up if
someone were to run a 'git merge --abort' or 'git rebase --abort'. It
was also difficult or scary to try to add or remove the index entries
corresponding to these files given the directory/file conflict in the
index. But changing merge-recursive.c to handle these correctly was a
royal pain because there were so many sites in the code with similar but
not identical code for handling directory/file/submodule conflicts that
would all need to be updated.
I have worked hard to push all directory/file/submodule conflict
handling in merge-ort through a single codepath, and avoid creating
untracked files for storing tracked content (it does record things at
alternate paths, but makes sure they have higher-order stages in the
index).
Since updating merge-recursive is too much work and we don't want to
destabilize it, instead update the testsuite to have different
expectations for relevant directory/file/submodule conflict tests.
