The result from "git diff" that compares two blobs, e.g. "git diff
$commit1:$path $commit2:$path", used to be shown with the full
object name as given on the command line, but it is more natural to
use the $path in the output and use it to look up .gitattributes.
* jk/diff-blob:
diff: use blob path for blob/file diffs
diff: use pending "path" if it is available
diff: use the word "path" instead of "name" for blobs
diff: pass whole pending entry in blobinfo
handle_revision_arg: record paths for pending objects
handle_revision_arg: record modes for "a..b" endpoints
t4063: add tests of direct blob diffs
get_sha1_with_context: dynamically allocate oc->path
get_sha1_with_context: always initialize oc->symlink_path
sha1_name: consistently refer to object_context as "oc"
handle_revision_arg: add handle_dotdot() helper
handle_revision_arg: hoist ".." check out of range parsing
handle_revision_arg: stop using "dotdot" as a generic pointer
handle_revision_arg: simplify commit reference lookups
handle_revision_arg: reset "dotdot" consistently
"git describe --contains" penalized light-weight tags so much that
they were almost never considered. Instead, give them about the
same chance to be considered as an annotated tag that is the same
age as the underlying commit would.
* jc/name-rev-lw-tag:
name-rev: favor describing with tags and use committer date to tiebreak
name-rev: refactor logic to see if a new candidate is a better name
A common pattern to free a piece of memory and assign NULL to the
pointer that used to point at it has been replaced with a new
FREE_AND_NULL() macro.
* ab/free-and-null:
*.[ch] refactoring: make use of the FREE_AND_NULL() macro
coccinelle: make use of the "expression" FREE_AND_NULL() rule
coccinelle: add a rule to make "expression" code use FREE_AND_NULL()
coccinelle: make use of the "type" FREE_AND_NULL() rule
coccinelle: add a rule to make "type" code use FREE_AND_NULL()
git-compat-util: add a FREE_AND_NULL() wrapper around free(ptr); ptr = NULL
Using "git add d/i/r" when d/i/r is the top of the working tree of
a separate repository would create a gitlink in the index, which
would appear as a not-quite-initialized submodule to others. We
learned to give warnings when this happens.
* jk/warn-add-gitlink:
t: move "git add submodule" into test blocks
add: warn when adding an embedded repository
Fix configuration codepath to pay proper attention to commondir
that is used in multi-worktree situation, and isolate config API
into its own header file.
* bw/config-h:
config: don't implicitly use gitdir or commondir
config: respect commondir
setup: teach discover_git_directory to respect the commondir
config: don't include config.h by default

config: create config.h

The code to pick up and execute command alias definition from the
configuration used to switch to the top of the working tree and
then come back when the expanded alias was executed, which was
unnecessarilyl complex. Attempt to simplify the logic by using the
early-config mechanism that does not chdir around.
* js/alias-early-config:
alias: use the early config machinery to expand aliases
t7006: demonstrate a problem with aliases in subdirectories
t1308: relax the test verifying that empty alias values are disallowed
help: use early config when autocorrecting aliases
config: report correct line number upon error
discover_git_directory(): avoid setting invalid git_dir
The pretty-format specifiers like '%h', '%t', etc. had an
optimization that no longer works correctly. In preparation/hope
of getting it correctly implemented, first discard the optimization
that is broken.

pretty: recalculate duplicate short hashes
The 'diff-highlight' program (in contrib/) has been restructured
for easier reuse by an external project 'diff-so-fancy'.
* jk/diff-highlight-module:
diff-highlight: split code into module
An example in documentation that does not work in multi worktree
configuration has been corrected.
* ah/doc-gitattributes-empty-index:
doc: do not use `rm .git/index` when normalizing line endings
A new test to show the interaction between the pattern [^a-z]
(which matches '/') and a slash in a path has been added. The
pattern should not match the slash with "pathmatch", but should
with "wildmatch".
* ab/wildmatch-glob-slash-test:
wildmatch test: cover a blind spot in "/" matching
"git mergetool" learned to work around a wrapper MacOS X adds
around underlying meld.
* da/mergetools-meld-output-opt-on-macos:
mergetools/meld: improve compatibiilty with Meld on macOS X
As there is no portable way to pass timezone information to
strftime, some output format from "git log" and friends are
impossible to produce. Teach our own strbuf_addftime to replace %z
and %Z with caller-supplied values to help working around this.
* rs/strbuf-addftime-zZ:
date: use localtime() for "-local" time formats
t0006: check --date=format zone offsets
strbuf: let strbuf_addftime handle %z and %Z itself

"fast-import" uses a default pack chain depth that is consistent
with other parts of the system.

"filter-branch" learned a pseudo filter "--setup" that can be used
to define a common function/variable that can be used by other
filters.
* ah/filter-branch-setup:
filter-branch: add [--] to usage
filter-branch: add `--setup` step
Fix an erroneously copy/pasted check for the pcre2_jit_stack variable
to check pcre2_match_context instead. The former was already checked
in the preceding "if" statement.
This is a trivial and obvious error introduced in my commit
94da9193a6 ("grep: add support for PCRE v2", 2017-06-01).
In practice if pcre2_match_context_create() returned NULL we were
likely in a situation where malloc() was returning NULL, and were thus
screwed anyway, but if only the pcre2_match_context_create() call
returned NULL (through some transitory bug) PCRE v2 would just
allocate and supply its own context object when matching, and we'd run
normally at the trivial expense of not getting a slight speedup by
sharing the context object between successive matches.

"git $cmd -h" for builtin commands calls the implementation of the
command (i.e. cmd_$cmd() function) without doing any repository
set-up, and the commands that expect RUN_SETUP is done by the Git
potty needs to be prepared to show the help text without barfing.

When an existing repository is used for t/perf testing, we first
create bit-for-bit copy of it, which may grab a transient state of
the repository and freeze it into the repository used for testing,
which then may cause Git operations to fail. Single out "the index
being locked" case and forcibly drop the lock from the copy.
* ab/perf-remove-index-lock:
perf: work around the tested repo having an index.lock
Update "perl-compatible regular expression" support to enable JIT
and also allow linking with the newer PCRE v2 library.
* ab/pcre-v2:
grep: add support for PCRE v2
grep: un-break building with PCRE >= 8.32 without --enable-jit
grep: un-break building with PCRE < 8.20
grep: un-break building with PCRE < 8.32
grep: add support for the PCRE v1 JIT API
log: add -P as a synonym for --perl-regexp
grep: skip pthreads overhead when using one thread
grep: don't redundantly compile throwaway patterns under threading
The convention for a command line is to follow "git cmdname
--options" with revisions followed by an optional "--"
disambiguator and then finally pathspecs. When "--" is not there,
we make sure early ones are all interpretable as revs (and do not
look like paths) and later ones are the other way around. A
pathspec with "magic" (e.g. ":/p/a/t/h" that matches p/a/t/h from
the top-level of the working tree, no matter what subdirectory you
are working from) are conservatively judged as "not a path", which
required disambiguation more often. The command line parser
learned to say "it's a pathspec" a bit more often when the syntax
looks like so.
* jk/pathspec-magic-disambiguation:
verify_filename(): flip order of checks
verify_filename(): treat ":(magic)" as a pathspec
check_filename(): handle ":^" path magic
check_filename(): use skip_prefix
check_filename(): refactor ":/" handling
t4208: add check for ":/" without matching file
