In standard C, '{ 0 }' can be used as an universal zero-initializer.
However, Sparse complains if this is used on a type where the first
member (possibly nested) is a pointer since Sparse purposely wants
to warn when '0' is used to initialize a pointer type.
Legitimaly, it's desirable to be able to use '{ 0 }' as an idiom
without these warnings [1,2]. To allow this, an option have now
been added to Sparse:
537e3e2dae univ-init: conditionally accept { 0 } without warnings
So, add this option to the SPARSE_FLAGS variable.
Note: The option have just been added to Sparse. So, to benefit
now from this patch it's needed to use the latest Sparse
source from kernel.org. The option will simply be ignored
by older versions of Sparse.

Printing a message directly to stdout could affect TAP processing
and is not really needed, as there is a standard way to skip all
tests that could be used instead, while printing an equivalent
message.
While at it; update the message to better reflect that since
a85efb5985 (t5608-clone-2gb.sh: turn GIT_TEST_CLONE_2GB into a bool,
2019-11-22), the enabling variable should be a recognized boolean
(ex: true, false, 1, 0) and get rid of the prerequisite that used
to guard all the tests, since "skip_all" is just much faster and

When we try to create a branch "foo" based on "origin/master" and give
git commit -b an extra unsupported argument "bar", it confusingly
reports:
$ git checkout -b foo origin/master bar
fatal: 'bar' is not a commit and a branch 'foo' cannot be created from it
$ git checkout --track -b foo origin/master bar
fatal: 'bar' is not a commit and a branch 'foo' cannot be created from it
That's wrong, because it very well understands that "origin/master" is
supposed to be the start point for the new branch and not "bar". Check
if we got a commit and show more fitting messages in that case instead:
$ git checkout -b foo origin/master bar
fatal: Cannot update paths and switch to branch 'foo' at the same time.
$ git checkout --track -b foo origin/master bar
fatal: '--track' cannot be used with updating paths

Test git checkout -b with and without --track and demonstrate unexpected
error messages when it's given an extra (i.e. unsupported) path
argument. In both cases it reports:
$ git checkout -b foo origin/master bar
fatal: 'bar' is not a commit and a branch 'foo' cannot be created from it
The problem is that the start point we gave for the new branch is
"origin/master" and "bar" is just some extra argument -- it could even
be a valid commit, which would make the message even more confusing. We
have more fitting error messages in git commit, but get confused; use
the text of the rights ones in the tests.

Git 2.26 used protocol v2 as its default protocol, but soon after
release, users noticed that the protocol v2 negotiation code was prone
to fail when fetching from some remotes that are far ahead of others
(such as linux-next.git versus Linus's linux.git). That has been
fixed by 0b07eecf6e (Merge branch 'jt/v2-fetch-nego-fix',
2020-05-01), but to be cautious, we are using protocol v0 as the
default in 2.27 to buy some time for any other unanticipated issues to
surface.
To that end, let's ensure that users requesting the bleeding edge
using the feature.experimental flag *do* get protocol v2. This way,
we can gain experience with a wider audience for the new protocol
version and be more confident when it is time to enable it by default
for all users in some future Git version.
Implementation note: this isn't with the rest of the
feature.experimental options in repo-settings.c because those are tied
to a repository object, whereas this code path is used for operations
like "git ls-remote" that do not require a repository.

95acf11a3d ("diff: restrict when prefetching occurs", 2020-04-07) taught
diff to prefetch blobs in a more limited set of situations. These
limited situations include when the output format requires blob data,
and when inexact rename detection is needed.
There is an existing test case that tests inexact rename detection, but
it also uses an output format that requires blob data, resulting in the
inexact-rename-detection-only code not being tested. Update this test to
use the raw output format, which does not require blob data.
Thanks to Derrick Stolee for noticing this lapse in code coverage and
for doing the preliminary analysis [1].

7187c7bbb8 (t4210: skip i18n tests that don't work on FreeBSD, 2019-11-27)
adds a REG_ILLSEQ prerequisite, and to do that copies the common branch in
test-lib and expands it to include it in a special case for FreeBSD.
Instead; test for it using a previously added extension to test-tool and
use that, together with a function that identifies when regcomp/regexec
will be called with broken patterns to avoid any test that would otherwise
rely on undefined behaviour.
The description of the first test which wasn't accurate has been corrected,
and the test rearranged for clarity, including a helper function that avoids
overly long lines.
Only the affected engines will have their tests suppressed, also including
"fixed" if the PCRE optimization that uses LIBPCRE2 since b65abcafc7

7187c7bbb8 (t4210: skip i18n tests that don't work on FreeBSD, 2019-11-27)
adds a REG_ILLSEQ prerequisite to avoid failures from the tests added in
4e2443b181 (log tests: test regex backends in "--encode=<enc>" tests,
2019-06-28), but hardcodes it to be only enabled in FreeBSD.
Instead of hardcoding the affected platform, teach the test-regex helper,
how to validate a pattern and report back, so it can be used to detect the
same issue in other affected systems (like DragonFlyBSD or macOS).
While at it, refactor the tool so it can report back the source of the
errors it founds, and can be invoked also in a --silent mode, when needed,
for backward compatibility. A missing flag has been added and the code
reformatted, as well as updates to the way the parameters are handled, for
consistency.
To minimize changes, it is assumed the regcomp error is of the right type
since we control the only caller, and is also assumed to affect both basic
and extended syntax (only basic is tested, but both behave the same in all
three affected platforms since they use the same function).

Since 7c5c9b9c57 (commit-graph: error out on invalid commit oids in
'write --stdin-commits', 2019-08-05), the commit-graph builtin dies on
receiving non-commit OIDs as input to '--stdin-commits'.
This behavior can be cumbersome to work around in, say, the case of
piping 'git for-each-ref' to 'git commit-graph write --stdin-commits' if
the caller does not want to cull out non-commits themselves. In this
situation, it would be ideal if 'git commit-graph write' wrote the graph
containing the inputs that did pertain to commits, and silently ignored
the remainder of the input.
Some options have been proposed to the effect of '--[no-]check-oids'
which would allow callers to have the commit-graph builtin do just that.
After some discussion, it is difficult to imagine a caller who wouldn't
want to pass '--no-check-oids', suggesting that we should get rid of the
behavior of complaining about non-commit inputs altogether.
If callers do wish to retain this behavior, they can easily work around
this change by doing the following:
git for-each-ref --format='%(objectname) %(objecttype) %(*objecttype)' |
awk '
!/commit/ { print "not-a-commit:"$1 }
/commit/ { print $1 }
' |
git commit-graph write --stdin-commits
To make it so that valid OIDs that refer to non-existent objects are
indeed an error after loosening the error handling, perform an extra
lookup to make sure that object indeed exists before sending it to the
commit-graph internals.

In the previous handful of commits, both 'git commit-graph write
--reachable' and '--stdin-commits' learned to peel tags down to the
commits which they refer to before passing them into the commit-graph
internals.
This makes the call to 'lookup_commit_reference_gently()' inside of
'fill_oids_from_commits()' a noop, since all OIDs are commits by that
point.
As such, remove the call entirely, as well as the progress meter, which
has been split and moved out to the callers in the aforementioned
earlier commits.

When given a list of commits, the commit-graph machinery calls
'lookup_commit_reference_gently()' on each element in the set and treats
the resulting set of OIDs as the base over which to close for
reachability.
In an earlier collection of commits, the 'git commit-graph write
--reachable' case made the inner-most call to
'lookup_commit_reference_gently()' by peeling references before they
were passed over to the commit-graph internals.
Do the analog for 'git commit-graph write --stdin-commits' by calling
'lookup_commit_reference_gently()' outside of the commit-graph
machinery, making the inner-most call a noop.
Since this may incur additional processing time, surround
'read_one_commit' with a progress meter to provide output to the caller.
