Commit 25d5ea410f ("[PATCH] Redo rename/copy detection logic.",
2005-05-24) added a duplicate entry check on rename_src in order to
avoid segfaults; the code at the time was prone to double free()s and an
easy way to avoid it was just to turn off rename detection for any
duplicate entries. Note that the form of the check was modified two
commits ago in this series.
Similarly, commit 4d6be03b95 ("diffcore-rename: avoid processing
duplicate destinations", 2015-02-26) added a duplicate entry check
on rename_dst for the exact same reason -- the code was prone to double
free()s, and an easy way to avoid it was just to turn off rename
detection entirely. Note that the form of the check was modified in the
commit just before this one.
In the original code in both places, the code was dealing with
individual diff_filespecs and trying to match things up, instead of just
keeping the original diff_filepairs around as we do now. The
intervening change in structure has fixed the accounting problems and
the associated double free()s that used to occur, and thus we already
have a better fix. As such, we can remove the band-aid checks for
duplicate entries.
Due to the last two patches, the diffcore_rename() setup is no longer a
sizeable chunk of overall runtime. Thus, in a large rebase of many
commits with lots of renames and several optimizations to inexact rename
detection, this patch only speeds up the overall code by about half a
percent or so and is pretty close to the run-to-run variability making
it hard to get an exact measurement. However, with some trace2 regions
around the setup code in diffcore_rename() so that I can focus on just
it, I measure that this patch consistently saves almost a third of the
remaining time spent in diffcore_rename() setup.

t6016 manually reconstructs git log --graph output by using the reported
commit hashes from `git rev-parse`. Each tag is converted into an
environment variable manually, and then `echo`-ed to an expected output
file, which is in turn compared to the actual output.
The expected output is difficult to read and write, because, e.g.,
each line of output must be prefaced with echo, quoted, and properly
escaped. Additionally, the test is sensitive to trailing whitespace,
which may potentially be removed from graph log output in the future.
In order to reduce duplication, ease troubleshooting of failed tests by
improving readability, and ease the addition of more tests to this file,
port the operations to `lib-log-graph.sh`, which is already used in
several other tests, e.g., t4215. Give all merges a simple commit
message, and use a common `check_graph` macro taking a heredoc of the
expected output which does not required extensive escaping.

We test that we can handle `git config --file symlink` and the error
case of `git config --file symlink-to-missing-file`. For good measure,
we also throw in a test to check that we correctly handle referencing a
missing regular file. But we have such a test earlier in this script.
They both check that we fail to use `--file no-such-file --list`.
Drop the latter of these and keep the one that is in the general area

We have two tests for checking that we can handle `git config --file
../other-config ...`. One, using `--file`, was introduced in 65807ee697
("builtin-config: Fix crash when using "-f <relative path>" from
non-root dir", 2010-01-26), then another, using `GIT_CONFIG`, came about
in 270a34438b ("config: stop using config_exclusive_filename",
2012-02-16).
The latter of these was then converted to use `--file` in f7e8714101
("t: prefer "git config --file" to GIT_CONFIG", 2014-03-20). Both where
then simplified in a5db0b77b9 ("t1300: extract and use
test_cmp_config()", 2018-10-21).
These two tests differ slightly in the order of the options used, but
other than that, they are identical. Let's drop one. As noted in
f7e8714101, we do still have a test for `GIT_CONFIG` and it shares the
implementation with `--file`.

test_export() has been self-recursive since its inception even though a
simple for-loop would have served just as well to append its arguments
to the `test_export_` variable separated by the pipe character "|".
Recently `test_export_` was changed instead to a space-separated list of
tokens to be exported, an operation which can be accomplished via a
single simple assignment, with no need for looping or recursion.
Therefore, simplify the implementation.
While at it, take advantage of the fact that variable names to be
exported are shell identifiers, thus won't be composed of special
characters or whitespace, thus simple a `$*` can be used rather than
magical `"$@"`.

On `git maintenance start`, we add a few entries to the user's cron
table. We wrap our entries using two magic markers, "# BEGIN GIT
MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE" and "# END GIT MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE". At a later
`git maintenance stop`, we will go through the table and remove these
lines. Or rather, we will remove the "BEGIN" marker, the "END" marker
and everything between them.
Alas, we have a bug in how we detect the "END" marker: we don't. As we
loop through all the lines of the crontab, if we are in the "old
region", i.e., the region we're aiming to remove, we make an early
`continue` and don't get as far as checking for the "END" marker. Thus,
once we've seen our "BEGIN", we remove everything until the end of the
file.
Rewrite the logic for identifying these markers. There are four cases
that are mutually exclusive: The current line starts a region or it ends
it, or it's firmly within the region, or it's outside of it (and should
be printed).

`git worktree repair` knows how to repair the two-way links between the
repository and a worktree as long as a link in one or the other
direction is sound. For instance, if a linked worktree is moved (without
using `git worktree move`), repair is possible because the worktree
still knows the location of the repository even though the repository no
longer knows where the worktree is. Similarly, if the repository is
moved, repair is possible since the repository still knows the locations
of the worktrees even though the worktrees no longer know where the
repository is.
However, if both the repository and the worktrees are moved, then links
are severed in both directions, and no repair is possible. This is the
case even when the new worktree locations are specified as arguments to
`git worktree repair`. The reason for this limitation is twofold. First,
when `repair` consults the worktree's gitfile (/path/to/worktree/.git)
to determine the corresponding <repo>/worktrees/<id>/gitdir file to fix,
<repo> is the old path to the repository, thus it is unable to fix the
`gitdir` file at its new location since it doesn't know where it is.
Second, when `repair` consults <repo>/worktrees/<id>/gitdir to find the
location of the worktree's gitfile (/path/to/worktree/.git), the path
recorded in `gitdir` is the old location of the worktree's gitfile, thus
it is unable to repair the gitfile since it doesn't know where it is.
Fix these shortcomings by teaching `repair` to attempt to infer the new
location of the <repo>/worktrees/<id>/gitdir file when the location
recorded in the worktree's gitfile has become stale but the file is
otherwise well-formed. The inference is intentionally simple-minded.
For each worktree path specified as an argument, `git worktree repair`
manually reads the ".git" gitfile at that location and, if it is
well-formed, extracts the <id>. It then searches for a corresponding
<id> in <repo>/worktrees/ and, if found, concludes that there is a
reasonable match and updates <repo>/worktrees/<id>/gitdir to point at
the specified worktree path. In order for <repo> to be known, `git
worktree repair` must be run in the main worktree or bare repository.
`git worktree repair` first attempts to repair each incoming
/path/to/worktree/.git gitfile to point at the repository, and then
attempts to repair outgoing <repo>/worktrees/<id>/gitdir files to point
at the worktrees. This sequence was chosen arbitrarily when originally
implemented since the order of fixes is immaterial as long as one side
of the two-way link between the repository and a worktree is sound.
However, for this new repair technique to work, the order must be
reversed. This is because the new inference mechanism, when it is
successful, allows the outgoing <repo>/worktrees/<id>/gitdir file to be
repaired, thus fixing one side of the two-way link. Once that side is
fixed, the other side can be fixed by the existing repair mechanism,
hence the order of repairs is now significant.
Two safeguards are employed to avoid hijacking a worktree from a
different repository if the user accidentally specifies a foreign
worktree as an argument. The first, as described above, is that it
requires an <id> match between the repository and the worktree. That
itself is not foolproof for preventing hijack, so the second safeguard
is that the inference will only kick in if the worktree's
/path/to/worktree/.git gitfile does not point at a repository.
