The `FOLLOW_SYMLINKS` flag was added to the dir-iterator API in
fa1da7d2ee (dir-iterator: add flags parameter to dir_iterator_begin,
2019-07-10) in order to follow symbolic links while traversing through a
directory.
`FOLLOW_SYMLINKS` gained its first caller in ff7ccc8c9a (clone: use
dir-iterator to avoid explicit dir traversal, 2019-07-10), but it was
subsequently removed in 6f054f9fb3 (builtin/clone.c: disallow `--local`
clones with symlinks, 2022-07-28).
Since then, we've held on to the code for `DIR_ITERATOR_FOLLOW_SYMLINKS`
in the name of making minimally invasive changes during a security
embargo.
In fact, we even changed the dir-iterator API in bffc762f87
(dir-iterator: prevent top-level symlinks without FOLLOW_SYMLINKS,
2023-01-24) without having any non-test callers of that flag.
Now that we're past those security embargo(s), let's finalize our
cleanup of the `DIR_ITERATOR_FOLLOW_SYMLINKS` code and remove its
implementation since there are no remaining callers.

Finally retire the scripted "git add -p/-i" implementation and have
everybody use the one reimplemented in C.

In-tree .gitattributes update to match the way we recommend our
users to mark a file as text.

.gitattributes: include `text` attribute for eol attributes
Plug leaks in sequencer subsystem and its users.
* ab/sequencer-unleak:
commit.c: free() revs.commit in get_fork_point()
builtin/rebase.c: free() "options.strategy_opts"
sequencer.c: always free() the "msgbuf" in do_pick_commit()

sequencer.c: split up sequencer_remove_state()
rebase: use "cleanup" pattern in do_interactive_rebase()
The bundle-URI subsystem adds support for creation-token heuristics
to help incremental fetches.
* ds/bundle-uri-5:
bundle-uri: test missing bundles with heuristic
bundle-uri: store fetch.bundleCreationToken
fetch: fetch from an external bundle URI
bundle-uri: drop bundle.flag from design doc
clone: set fetch.bundleURI if appropriate
bundle-uri: download in creationToken order
bundle-uri: parse bundle.<id>.creationToken values
bundle-uri: parse bundle.heuristic=creationToken
t5558: add tests for creationToken heuristic
bundle: verify using check_connected()
bundle: test unbundling with incomplete history
In an environment where dynamically generated code is prohibited to
run (e.g. SELinux), failure to JIT pcre patterns is expected. Fall
back to interpreted execution in such a case.
* cb/grep-fallback-failing-jit:
grep: fall back to interpreter if JIT memory allocation fails
Code clean-up around unused function parameters.
* jk/unused-post-2.39:
userdiff: mark unused parameter in internal callback
list-objects-filter: mark unused parameters in virtual functions
diff: mark unused parameters in callbacks
xdiff: mark unused parameter in xdl_call_hunk_func()
xdiff: drop unused parameter in def_ff()
ws: drop unused parameter from ws_blank_line()
list-objects: drop process_gitlink() function
blob: drop unused parts of parse_blob_buffer()
ls-refs: use repository parameter to iterate refs
Clarify how "checkout -b/-B" and "git branch [-f]" are similar but
different in the documentation.
* jc/doc-checkout-b:
checkout: document -b/-B to highlight the differences from "git branch"
Document that "branch -f <branch>" disables only the safety to
avoid recreating an existing branch.
* jc/doc-branch-update-checked-out-branch:
branch: document `-f` and linked worktree behaviour
"git ls-tree --format='%(path) %(path)' $tree $path" showed the
path three times, which has been corrected.
* rs/ls-tree-path-expansion-fix:
ls-tree: remove dead store and strbuf for quote_c_style()
ls-tree: fix expansion of repeated %(path)
Document ORIG_HEAD a bit more.
* pb/doc-orig-head:
git-rebase.txt: add a note about 'ORIG_HEAD' being overwritten
revisions.txt: be explicit about commands writing 'ORIG_HEAD'
git-merge.txt: mention 'ORIG_HEAD' in the Description
git-reset.txt: mention 'ORIG_HEAD' in the Description
git-cherry-pick.txt: do not use 'ORIG_HEAD' in example
The logic to see if we are using the "cone" mode by checking the
sparsity patterns has been tightened to avoid mistaking a pattern
that names a single file as specifying a cone.
* ws/single-file-cone:
dir: check for single file cone patterns
"git diff --relative" did not mix well with "git diff --ext-diff",
which has been corrected.
* jk/ext-diff-with-relative:
diff: drop "name" parameter from prepare_temp_file()
diff: clean up external-diff argv setup
diff: use filespec path to set up tempfiles for ext-diff
Fix to a small regression in 2.38 days.
* ab/bundle-wo-args:
bundle <cmd>: have usage_msg_opt() note the missing "<file>"
builtin/bundle.c: remove superfluous "newargc" variable
bundle: don't segfault on "git bundle <subcmd>"
Fix the sequence to fsync $GIT_DIR/packed-refs file that forgot to
flush its output to the disk..
* ps/fsync-refs-fix:
refs: fix corruption by not correctly syncing packed-refs to disk
When given a pattern that matches an empty string at the end of a
line, the code to parse the "git diff" line-ranges fell into an
infinite loop, which has been corrected.
* lk/line-range-parsing-fix:
line-range: fix infinite loop bug with '$' regex
Newer regex library macOS stopped enabling GNU-like enhanced BRE,
where '\(A\|B\)' works as alternation, unless explicitly asked with
the REG_ENHANCED flag. "git grep" now can be compiled to do so, to
retain the old behaviour.
* rs/use-enhanced-bre-on-macos:
use enhanced basic regular expressions on macOS
Deal with a few deprecation warning from cURL library.
* jk/curl-avoid-deprecated-api:
http: support CURLOPT_PROTOCOLS_STR
http: prefer CURLOPT_SEEKFUNCTION to CURLOPT_IOCTLFUNCTION
http-push: prefer CURLOPT_UPLOAD to CURLOPT_PUT
Redefining system functions for a few functions did not follow our
usual "implement git_foo() and #define foo(args) git_foo(args)"
pattern, which has broken build for some folks.
* jk/avoid-redef-system-functions-2.30:
git-compat-util: undefine system names before redeclaring them
git-compat-util: avoid redefining system function names

script embedded in yaml file into a separate file, but that can
come later.
* cw/ci-whitespace:
ci (check-whitespace): move to actions/checkout@v3
ci (check-whitespace): add links to job output
ci (check-whitespace): suggest fixes for errors

it is done using it, saving peak heap memory usage.
* ew/free-island-marks:
delta-islands: free island_marks and bitmaps
