徐沛文 (Aleen) 9e7e41bf19 am: support --allow-empty to record specific empty patches
This option helps to record specific empty patches in the middle
of an am session, which does create empty commits only when:

    1. the index has not changed
    2. lacking a branch

When the index has changed, "--allow-empty" will create a non-empty
commit like passing "--continue" or "--resolved".

Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason 1108cea7f8 tests: remove most uses of test_i18ncmp
As a follow-up to d162b25f95 (tests: remove support for
GIT_TEST_GETTEXT_POISON, 2021-01-20) remove most uses of test_i18ncmp
via a simple s/test_i18ncmp/test_cmp/g search-replacement.

I'm leaving t6300-for-each-ref.sh out due to a conflict with in-flight
changes between "master" and "seen", as well as the prerequisite
itself due to other changes between "master" and "next/seen" which add
new test_i18ncmp uses.

Johannes Schindelin 1e2ae142c0 t7[5-9]*: adjust the references to the default branch name "main"
Excluding t7817, which is added in an unrelated patch series at the time
of writing, this adjusts t7[5-9]*. This trick was performed via

	$ (cd t &&
	   sed -i -e 's/master/main/g' -e 's/MASTER/MAIN/g' \
		-e 's/Master/Main/g' -- t7[5-9]*.sh)

This allows us to define `GIT_TEST_DEFAULT_INITIAL_BRANCH_NAME=main`
for those tests.

Johannes Schindelin 334afbc76f tests: mark tests relying on the current default for init.defaultBranch
In addition to the manual adjustment to let the `linux-gcc` CI job run
the test suite with `master` and then with `main`, this patch makes sure
that GIT_TEST_DEFAULT_INITIAL_BRANCH_NAME is set in all test scripts
that currently rely on the initial branch name being `master by default.

To determine which test scripts to mark up, the first step was to
force-set the default branch name to `master` in

- all test scripts that contain the keyword `master`,

- t4211, which expects `t/t4211/history.export` with a hard-coded ref to
  initialize the default branch,

- t5560 because it sources `t/t556x_common` which uses `master`,

- t8002 and t8012 because both source `t/annotate-tests.sh` which also
  uses `master`)

This trick was performed by this command:

	$ sed -i '/^ *\. \.\/\(test-lib\|lib-\(bash\|cvs\|git-svn\)\|gitweb-lib\)\.sh$/i\
	GIT_TEST_DEFAULT_INITIAL_BRANCH_NAME=master\
	export GIT_TEST_DEFAULT_INITIAL_BRANCH_NAME\
	' $(git grep -l master t/t[0-9]*.sh) \
	t/t4211*.sh t/t5560*.sh t/t8002*.sh t/t8012*.sh

After that, careful, manual inspection revealed that some of the test
scripts containing the needle `master` do not actually rely on a
specific default branch name: either they mention `master` only in a
comment, or they initialize that branch specificially, or they do not
actually refer to the current default branch. Therefore, the
aforementioned modification was undone in those test scripts thusly:

	$ git checkout HEAD -- \
		t/t0027-auto-crlf.sh t/t0060-path-utils.sh \
		t/t1011-read-tree-sparse-checkout.sh \
		t/t1305-config-include.sh t/t1309-early-config.sh \
		t/t1402-check-ref-format.sh t/t1450-fsck.sh \
		t/t2024-checkout-dwim.sh \

		t/t3040-subprojects-basic.sh t/t3301-notes.sh \
		t/t3308-notes-merge.sh t/t3423-rebase-reword.sh \
		t/t3436-rebase-more-options.sh \
		t/t4015-diff-whitespace.sh t/t4257-am-interactive.sh \

		t/t7508-status.sh t/t7606-merge-custom.sh \
		t/t9302-fast-import-unpack-limit.sh

We excluded one set of test scripts in these commands, though: the range
of `git p4` tests. The reason? `git p4` stores the (foreign) remote
branch in the branch called `p4/master`, which is obviously not the
default branch. Manual analysis revealed that only five of these tests
actually require a specific default branch name to pass; They were
modified thusly:

	$ sed -i '/^ *\. \.\/lib-git-p4\.sh$/i\
	GIT_TEST_DEFAULT_INITIAL_BRANCH_NAME=master\
	export GIT_TEST_DEFAULT_INITIAL_BRANCH_NAME\
	' t/t980[0167]*.sh t/t9811*.sh

Elijah Newren 10cdb9f38a rebase: rename the two primary rebase backends
Two related changes, with separate rationale for each:

Rename the 'interactive' backend to 'merge' because:
  * 'interactive' as a name caused confusion; this backend has been used
    for many kinds of non-interactive rebases, and will probably be used
    in the future for more non-interactive rebases than interactive ones
    given that we are making it the default.
  * 'interactive' is not the underlying strategy; merging is.
  * the directory where state is stored is not called
    .git/rebase-interactive but .git/rebase-merge.

Rename the 'am' backend to 'apply' because:
  * Few users are familiar with git-am as a reference point.
  * Related to the above, the name 'am' makes sentences in the
    documentation harder for users to read and comprehend (they may read
    it as the verb from "I am"); avoiding this difficult places a large
    burden on anyone writing documentation about this backend to be very
    careful with quoting and sentence structure and often forces
    annoying redundancy to try to avoid such problems.
  * Users stumble over pronunciation ("am" as in "I am a person not a
    backend" or "am" as in "the first and thirteenth letters in the
    alphabet in order are "A-M"); this may drive confusion when one user
    tries to explain to another what they are doing.
  * While "am" is the tool driving this backend, the tool driving git-am
    is git-apply, and since we are driving towards lower-level tools
    for the naming of the merge backend we may as well do so here too.
  * The directory where state is stored has never been called
    .git/rebase-am, it was always called .git/rebase-apply.

For all the reasons listed above:
  * Modify the documentation to refer to the backends with the new names
  * Provide a brief note in the documentation connecting the new names
    to the old names in case users run across the old names anywhere
    (e.g. in old release notes or older versions of the documentation)
  * Change the (new) --am command line flag to --apply
  * Rename some enums, variables, and functions to reinforce the new
    backend names for us as well.

Phillip Wood ed5b1ca10b status: do not report errors in sequencer/todo
commit 4a72486de9 ("fix cherry-pick/revert status after commit",
2019-04-16) used parse_insn_line() to parse the first line of the todo
list to check if it was a pick or revert. However if the todo list is
left over from an old cherry-pick or revert and references a commit that
no longer exists then parse_insn_line() prints an error message which is
confusing for users [1]. Instead parse just the command name so that the
user is alerted to the presence of stale sequencer state by status
reporting that a cherry-pick or revert is in progress.

Note that we should not be leaving stale sequencer state lying around
(or at least not as often) after commit b07d9bfd17 ("commit/reset: try
to clean up sequencer state", 2019-04-16). However the user may still
have stale state that predates that commit.

Also avoid printing an error message if for some reason the user has a
file called `sequencer` in $GIT_DIR.

Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy 80f537f79c doc: promote "git restore"
The new command "git restore" (together with "git switch") are added
to avoid the confusion of one-command-do-all "git checkout" for new
users. They are also helpful to avoid ambiguous context.

For these reasons, promote it everywhere possible. This includes
documentation, suggestions/advice from other commands.

One nice thing about git-restore is the ability to restore
"everything", so it can be used in "git status" advice instead of both
"git checkout" and "git reset".  The three commands suggested by "git
status" are add, rm and restore.

"git checkout" is also removed from "git help" (i.e. it's no longer
considered a commonly used command)

When we show unmerged paths, we had an artificial 20 columns floor
for the width of labels (e.g. "both deleted:") shown next to the
pathnames.  Depending on the locale, this may result in a label that
is too wide when all the label strings are way shorter than 20
columns, or no-op when a label string is longer than 20 columns.

Just drop the artificial floor.  The screen real estate is better
utilized this way when all the strings are shorter.

Matthieu Moy 2556b9962e status: disable display of '#' comment prefix by default
Historically, "git status" needed to prefix each output line with '#' so
that the output could be added as comment to the commit message. This
prefix comment has no real purpose when "git status" is ran from the
command-line, and this may distract users from the real content.

Disable this prefix comment by default, and make it re-activable for
users needing backward compatibility with status.displayCommentPrefix.

Obviously, "git commit" ignores status.displayCommentPrefix and keeps the
comment unconditionnaly when writing to COMMIT_EDITMSG (but not when
writing to stdout for an error message or with --dry-run).

Ramkumar Ramachandra ec50631064 status: do not depend on rebase reflog messages
b397ea4 (status: show more info than "currently not on any branch",
2013-03-13) attempted to make the output of 'git status' richer in
the case of a detached HEAD.  Before this patch, with a detached
HEAD, we saw:

  $ git status
  # Not currently on any branch.

But after the patch, we see:

  $ git checkout v1.8.2
  $ git status
  # HEAD detached at v1.8.2.

It works by digging the reflog for the most recent message of the
form "checkout: moving from xxxx to yyyy".  It then asserts that
HEAD and "yyyy" are the same, and displays this message.  When they
aren't equal, it displays:

  $ git status
  # HEAD detached from fe11db.

so that the user can see where the HEAD was first detached.

In case of a rebase [-i] operation in progress, this message depends
on the implementation of rebase writing "checkout: " messages to the
reflog, but that is an implementation detail of "rebase".  To remove
this dependency so that rebase can be updated to write better reflog
messages, replace this "HEAD detached from" message with:

  # rebase in progress; onto $ONTO

Changes to the commit object name in the expected output for some of
the tests shows that what the test expected "status" to show during
"rebase -i" was not consistent with the output during a vanilla
"rebase", which showed on top of what commit the series is being
replayed.  Now we consistently expect something meaningful to the
end user.

Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy 6deab24d88 status, branch: fix the misleading "bisecting" message
The current message is "bisecting %s" (or "bisecting branch %s").
"%s" is the current branch when we started bisecting. Clarify that to
avoid confusion with good and bad refs passed to "bisect" command.

Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy b397ea4863 status: show more info than "currently not on any branch"
When a remote ref or a tag is checked out, HEAD is automatically
detached. There is no user-friendly way to find out what ref is
checked out in this case. This patch digs in reflog for this
information and shows "HEAD detached from origin/master" or "HEAD
detached at v1.8.0" instead of "currently not on any branch".

When it cannot figure out the original ref, it shows an abbreviated
SHA-1. "Currently not on any branch" would never display (unless
reflog is pruned to near empty that the last checkout entry is lost).

Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy 0722c805d6 status: show the branch name if possible in in-progress info
The typical use-case is starting a rebase, do something else, come
back the day after, run "git status" or make a new commit and wonder
what in the world's going on. Which branch is being rebased is
probably the most useful tidbit to help, but the target may help
too.

Ideally, I would have loved to see "rebasing master on
origin/master", but the target ref name is not stored during rebase,
so this patch writes "rebasing master on a78c8c98b" as a
half-measure to remind future users of that potential improvement.

Lucien Kong 2d1ccebae4 status: better advices when splitting a commit (during rebase -i)
Add new informative help messages at the output of 'git status' when
the user is splitting a commit. The code figures this state by
comparing the contents of the following files in the .git/ directory:
	  - HEAD
	  - ORIG_HEAD
	  - rebase-merge/amend
	  - rebase-merge/orig-head

Lucien Kong 96b0ec1a4c status: don't suggest "git rm" or "git add" if not appropriate
The display of the advice '(use git add/rm [...])' (when there are
unmerged files) after running 'git status' is now depending of the
mark, whether it's 'both deleted', 'deleted by us/them' or others. For
instance, when there is just one file that's marked as 'both deleted',
'git status' shows '(use git rm [...])' and if there are two files,
one as 'both deleted' and the other as 'added by them', the advice is
'(use git add/rm [...])'.

The previous tests in t7512-status-help.sh are updated.

Test about the case of only 'both deleted' is added in
t7060-wtstatus.sh

Lucien Kong 708192637e t7512-status-help.sh: better advices for git status
The following tests include several cases in which the user needs to
run 'git status' to know his current situation, whether there're
conflicts or he's in rebase/bisect/am/cherry-pick progress.

One of the test is about the set of the advice.statushints config key
to 'false' in .git/config.
