"git clone" of a local repository can be done at the filesystem
level, but the codepath did not check errors while copying and
adjusting the file that lists alternate object stores.
* jk/clone-copy-alternates-fix:
clone: detect errors in normalize_path_copy
When we are copying the alternates from the source
repository, if we find a relative path that is too deep for
the source (e.g., "../../../objects" from "/repo.git/objects"),
then normalize_path_copy will report an error and leave
trash in the buffer, which we will add to our new alternates
file. Instead, let's detect the error, print a warning, and
skip copying that alternate.
There's no need to die. The relative path is probably just
broken cruft in the source repo. If it turns out to have
been important for accessing some objects, we rely on other
parts of the clone to detect that, just as they would with a
missing object in the source repo itself (though note that
clones with "-s" are inherently local, which may do fewer
object-quality checks in the first place).

Because the initial connectivity check for a cloned
repository can be slow, 0781aa4 (clone: let the user know
when check_everything_connected is run, 2013-05-03) added a
"fake" progress meter; we simply say "Checking connectivity"
when it starts, and "done" at the end, with nothing between.
Since check_connected() now knows how to do a real progress
meter, we can drop our fake one and use that one instead.

The number of variants of check_everything_connected has
grown over the years, so that the "real" function takes
several possibly-zero, possibly-NULL arguments. We hid the
complexity behind some wrapper functions, but this doesn't
scale well when we want to add new options.
If we add more wrapper variants to handle the new options,
then we can get a combinatorial explosion when those options
might be used together (right now nobody wants to use both
"shallow" and "transport" together, so we get by with just a
few wrappers).
If instead we add new parameters to each function, each of
which can have a default value, then callers who want the
defaults end up with confusing invocations like:
check_everything_connected(fn, 0, data, -1, 0, NULL);
where it is unclear which parameter is which (and every
caller needs updated when we add new options).
Instead, let's add a struct to hold all of the optional
parameters. This is a little more verbose for the callers
(who have to declare the struct and fill it in), but it
makes their code much easier to follow, because every option
is named as it is set (and unused options do not have to be
mentioned at all).
Note that we could also stick the iteration function and its
callback data into the option struct, too. But since those
are required for each call, by avoiding doing so, we can let
very simple callers just pass "NULL" for the options and not
worry about the struct at all.
While we're touching each site, let's also rename the
function to check_connected(). The existing name was quite
long, and not all of the wrappers even used the full name.

Fix an unintended regression in v2.9 that breaks "clone --depth"

clone: do not let --depth imply --shallow-submodules
In v2.9.0, we prematurely flipped the default to force cloning

submodules are cloned from a repository that is not prepared to
serve histories that ends at a commit that is not at the tip of a
branch, and we know the world is not yet ready.

tells us that she knows that the upstream repository of the
submodules are willing to cooperate with "--shallow-submodules"
option.

There are two types of string_lists: those that own the
string memory, and those that don't. You can tell the
difference by the strdup_strings flag, and one should use
either STRING_LIST_INIT_DUP, or STRING_LIST_INIT_NODUP as an
initializer.
Historically, the normal all-zeros initialization has
corresponded to the NODUP case. Many sites use no
initializer at all, and that works as a shorthand for that
case. But for a reader of the code, it can be hard to
remember which is which. Let's be more explicit and actually
have each site declare which type it means to use.
This is a fairly mechanical conversion; I assumed each site
was correct as-is, and just switched them all to NODUP.

When creating a shallow clone of a repository with submodules, the depth
argument does not influence the submodules, i.e. the submodules are done
as non-shallow clones. It is unclear what the best default is for the
depth of submodules of a shallow clone, so we need to have the possibility
to do all kinds of combinations:
* shallow super project with shallow submodules
e.g. build bots starting always from scratch. They want to transmit
the least amount of network data as well as using the least amount
of space on their hard drive.
* shallow super project with unshallow submodules
e.g. The superproject is just there to track a collection of repositories
and it is not important to have the relationship between the repositories
intact. However the history of the individual submodules matter.
* unshallow super project with shallow submodules
e.g. The superproject is the actual project and the submodule is a
library which is rarely touched.
The new switch to select submodules to be shallow or unshallow supports
all of these three cases.
It is easy to transition from the first to the second case by just
unshallowing the submodules (`git submodule foreach git fetch
--unshallow`), but it is not possible to transition from the second to the
first case (as we would have already transmitted the non shallow over
the network). That is why we want to make the first case the default in
case of a shallow super project. This leads to the inconvenience in the
second case with the shallow super project and unshallow submodules,
as you need to pass `--no-shallow-submodules`.

The strbuf_getline() interface allows a byte other than LF or NUL as
the line terminator, but this is only because I wrote these
codepaths anticipating that there might be a value other than NUL
and LF that could be useful when I introduced line_termination long
time ago. No useful caller that uses other value has emerged.
By now, it is clear that the interface is overly broad without a
good reason. Many codepaths have hardcoded preference to read
either LF terminated or NUL terminated records from their input, and
then call strbuf_getline() with LF or NUL as the third parameter.
This step introduces two thin wrappers around strbuf_getline(),
namely, strbuf_getline_lf() and strbuf_getline_nul(), and
mechanically rewrites these call sites to call either one of
them. The changes contained in this patch are:
* introduction of these two functions in strbuf.[ch]
* mechanical conversion of all callers to strbuf_getline() with
either '\n' or '\0' as the third parameter to instead call the
respective thin wrapper.
After this step, output from "git grep 'strbuf_getline('" would
become a lot smaller. An interim goal of this series is to make
this an empty set, so that we can have strbuf_getline_crlf() take
over the shorter name strbuf_getline().

When `git clone` is asked to dissociate the repository from the
reference repository whose objects were used, it is quite possible that
the pack files need to be repacked. In that case, the pack files need to
be deleted that were originally hard-links to the reference repository's
pack files.
On platforms where a file cannot be deleted if another process still
holds a handle on it, we therefore need to take pains to release all
pack files and indexes before dissociating.

Commit 7e837c6 (clone: simplify string handling in
guess_dir_name(), 2015-07-09) changed clone to use
strip_suffix instead of hand-rolled pointer manipulation.
However, strip_suffix will strip from the end of a
NUL-terminated string, and we may have already stripped some
characters (like directory separators, or "/.git"). This
leads to commands like:
git clone host:foo.git/
failing to strip the ".git".
We must instead convert our pointer arithmetic into a
computed length and feed that to strip_suffix_mem, which will
then reduce the length further for us.
It would be nicer if we could drop the pointer manipulation
entirely, and just continually strip using strip_suffix. But
that doesn't quite work for two reasons:
1. The early suffixes we're stripping are not constant; we
need to look for is_dir_sep, which could be one of
several characters.
2. Mid-way through the stripping we compute the pointer
"start", which shows us the beginning of the pathname.
Which really give us two lengths to work with: the
offset from the start of the string, and from the start
of the path. By using pointers for the early part, we
can just compute the length from "start" when we need
it.

"git clone" uses shortcuts when creating the initial set of
references:
* It writes them directly to packed-refs.
* It doesn't lock the individual references (though it does lock the
packed-refs file).
* It doesn't check for refname conflicts between two new references or
between one new reference and any hypothetical old ones.
* It doesn't create reflog entries for the reference creations.
This functionality was implemented in builtin/clone.c. But really that
file shouldn't have such intimate knowledge of how references are
stored. So provide a new function in the refs API,
initial_ref_transaction_commit(), which can be used for initial
reference creation. The new function is based on the ref_transaction
interface.
This means that we can make some other functions private to the refs
module. That will be done in a followup commit.
It would seem to make sense to add a test here that there are no
existing references, because that is how the function *should* be
used. But in fact, the "testgit" remote helper appears to call it
*after* having set up refs/remotes/<name>/HEAD and
refs/remotes/<name>/master, so we can't be so strict. For now, the
function trusts its caller to only call it when it makes sense. Future
commits will add some more limited sanity checks.
