The "tag.pager" configuration variable was useless for those who
actually create tag objects, as it interfered with the use of an
editor. A new mechanism has been introduced for commands to enable
pager depending on what operation is being carried out to fix this,

Many uses of comparision callback function the hashmap API uses

When running, e.g., `git -c alias.bar=foo bar`, we expand the alias and
execute `git-foo` as a dashed external. This is true even if git foo is
a builtin. That is on purpose, and is motivated in a comment which was
added in commit 441981bc ("git: simplify environment save/restore
logic", 2016-01-26).
Shortly before we launch a dashed external, and unless we have already
found out whether we should use a pager, we check `pager.foo`. This was
added in commit 92058e4d ("support pager.* for external commands",
2011-08-18). If the dashed external is a builtin, this does not match
that commit's intention and is arguably wrong, since it would be cleaner
if we let the "dashed external builtin" handle `pager.foo`.
This has not mattered in practice, but a recent patch taught `git-tag`
to ignore `pager.tag` under certain circumstances. But, when started
using an alias, it doesn't get the chance to do so, as outlined above.
That recent patch added a test to document this breakage.
Do not check `pager.foo` before launching a builtin as a dashed
external, i.e., if we recognize the name of the external as a builtin.
Change the test to use `test_expect_success`.

The previous patch taught `git tag` to only respect `pager.tag` in
list-mode. That patch left the default value of `pager.tag` at "off".
After that patch, it makes sense to let the default value be "on"
instead, since it will help with listing many tags, but will not hurt
users of `git tag -a` as it would have before. Make that change. Update
documentation and tests.

Using, e.g., `git -c pager.tag tag -a new-tag` results in errors such as
"Vim: Warning: Output is not to a terminal" and a garbled terminal.
Someone who makes use of both `git tag -a` and `git tag -l` will
probably not set `pager.tag`, so that `git tag -a` will actually work,
at the cost of not paging output of `git tag -l`.
Use the mechanisms introduced in two earlier patches to ignore
`pager.tag` in git.c and let the `git tag` builtin handle it on its own.
Only respect `pager.tag` when running in list-mode.
There is a window between where the pager is started before and after
this patch. This means that early errors can behave slightly different
before and after this patch. Since operation-parsing has to happen
inside this window, this can be seen with `git -c pager.tag="echo pager
is used" tag -l --unknown-option`. This change in paging-behavior should
be acceptable since it only affects erroneous usages.
Update the documentation and update tests.
If an alias is used to run `git tag -a`, then `pager.tag` will still be
respected. Document this known breakage. It will be fixed in a later
commit. Add a similar test for `-l`, which works.

Since we're about to change how `git tag` respects `pager.tag`, add tests
around this, including how the configuration is ignored if --no-pager or
--paginate are used.
Construct tests with a few different subcommands. First, use -l. Second,
use "no arguments" and --contains, since those imply -l. (There are
more arguments which imply -l, but using these two should be enough.)
Third, use -a as a representative for "not -l". Actually, the tests use
`git tag -am` so no editor is launched, but that is irrelevant, since we
just want to see whether the pager is used or not. Make one of the tests
demonstrate the broken behavior mentioned above, where `git tag -a`
respects `pager.tag`.

The previous patch introduced a way for builtins to declare that they
will take responsibility for handling the `pager.foo`-config item. (See
the commit message of that patch for why that could be useful.)
Provide setup_auto_pager(), which builtins can call in order to handle
`pager.<cmd>`, including possibly starting the pager. Make this function
don't do anything if a pager has already been started, as indicated by
use_pager or pager_in_use().
Whenever this function is called from a builtin, git.c will already have
called commit_pager_choice(). Since commit_pager_choice() treats the
special value -1 as "punt" or "not yet decided", it is not a problem
that we might end up calling commit_pager_choice() once in git.c and
once (or more) in the builtin. Make the new function use -1 in the same
way and document it as "punt".
Don't add any users of setup_auto_pager just yet, one will follow in
a later patch.

Before launching a builtin git foo and unless mechanisms with precedence
are in use, we check for and handle the `pager.foo` config. This is done
without considering exactly how git foo is being used, and indeed, git.c
cannot (and should not) know what the arguments to git foo are supposed
to achieve.
In practice this means that, e.g., `git -c pager.tag tag -a new-tag`
results in errors such as "Vim: Warning: Output is not to a terminal"
and a garbled terminal. Someone who makes use of both `git tag -a` and
`git tag -l` will probably not set `pager.tag`, so that `git tag -a`
will actually work, at the cost of not paging output of `git tag -l`.
To allow individual builtins to make more informed decisions about when
to respect `pager.foo`, introduce a flag DELAY_PAGER_CONFIG. If the flag
is set, do not check `pager.foo`.
Do not check for DELAY_PAGER_CONFIG in `execv_dashed_external()`. That
call site is arguably wrong, although in a way that is not yet visible,
and will be changed in a slightly different direction in a later patch.
Don't add any users of DELAY_PAGER_CONFIG just yet, one will follow in a

If revs->def is set (as it is in "git log") and there are no
pending objects after parsing the user's input, then we show
whatever is in "def". But if the user _did_ ask for some
input that just happened to be empty (e.g., "--glob" that
does not match anything), showing the default revision is
confusing. We should just show nothing, as that is what the
user's request yielded.

If the user gives us no starting point for a traversal, we
want to complain with our normal usage message. But if they
tried to do so with "--all" or "--glob", but that happened
not to match any refs, the usage message isn't helpful. We
should just give them the empty output they asked for
instead.

Normally a caller that invokes setup_revisions() has to
check rev.pending to see if anything was actually queued for
the traversal. But they can't tell the difference between
two cases:
1. The user gave us no tip from which to start a
traversal.
2. The user tried to give us tips via --glob, --all, etc,
but their patterns ended up being empty.
Let's set a flag in the rev_info struct that callers can use
to tell the difference. We can set this from the
init_all_refs_cb() function. That's a little funny because
it's not exactly about initializing the "cb" struct itself.
But that function is the common setup place for doing
pattern traversals that is used by --glob, --all, etc.

In 751a2ac6e (rev-list --exclude: tests, 2013-11-01), we
added a few tests for handling "empty" inputs with rev-list
(i.e., where the user gave us some pattern but it turned out
not to queue any objects for traversal), all of which were
marked as failing.
In preparation for working on this area of the code, let's
give each test a more descriptive name. Let's also include
one more case which we should cover: feeding a --glob
pattern that doesn't match anything.
We can also drop the explanatory comment; we'll be
converting these to expect_success in the next few patches,
so the discussion isn't necessary.
