Memory leaks in "git mv" has been plugged.
* jk/leakfixes:

mv: factor out empty src_dir removal
mv: move src_dir cleanup to end of cmd_mv()
t-strvec: mark variable-arg helper with LAST_ARG_MUST_BE_NULL
t-strvec: use va_end() to match va_start()
The alias-expanded command lines are logged to the trace output.
* iw/trace-argv-on-alias:
run-command: show prepared command
Documentation: alias: add notes on shell expansion

midx-write.c: extract `fill_packs_from_midx()`
midx-write.c: extract `should_include_pack()`
midx-write.c: pass `start_pack` to `compute_sorted_entries()`
midx-write.c: reduce argument count for `get_sorted_entries()`
midx-write.c: tolerate `--preferred-pack` without bitmaps
The promisor.quiet configuration knob can be set to true to make
lazy fetching from promisor remotes silent.

Leakfixes.
* ps/leakfixes:
builtin/mv: fix leaks for submodule gitfile paths
builtin/mv: refactor to use `struct strvec`
builtin/mv duplicate string list memory
builtin/mv: refactor `add_slash()` to always return allocated strings
strvec: add functions to replace and remove strings
submodule: fix leaking memory for submodule entries
commit-reach: fix memory leak in `ahead_behind()`
builtin/credential: clear credential before exit
config: plug various memory leaks
config: clarify memory ownership in `git_config_string()`
builtin/log: stop using globals for format config
builtin/log: stop using globals for log config
convert: refactor code to clarify ownership of check_roundtrip_encoding
diff: refactor code to clarify memory ownership of prefixes
config: clarify memory ownership in `git_config_pathname()`
http: refactor code to clarify memory ownership
checkout: clarify memory ownership in `unique_tracking_name()`
strbuf: fix leak when `appendwholeline()` fails with EOF
transport-helper: fix leaking helper name
When "git push" notices that the commit at the tip of the ref on
the other side it is about to overwrite does not exist locally, it
used to first try fetching it if the local repository is a partial
clone. The command has been taught not to do so and immediately
fail instead.
* th/push-local-ff-check-without-lazy-fetch:
push: don't fetch commit object when checking existence
"git init" in an already created directory, when the user
configuration has includeif.onbranch, started to fail recently,
which has been corrected.
* ps/fix-reinit-includeif-onbranch:
setup: fix bug with "includeIf.onbranch" when initializing dir
This adds a trace point in start_command so we can see the full
command invocation without having to resort to strace/code inspection.
For example:
$ GIT_TRACE=1 git test foo
git.c:755 trace: exec: git-test foo
run-command.c:657 trace: run_command: git-test foo
run-command.c:657 trace: run_command: 'echo $*' foo
run-command.c:749 trace: start_command: /bin/sh -c 'echo $* "$@"' 'echo $*' foo
Prior changes have made the documentation around the internals of the
alias command execution clearer, but I have still found this detailed
view of the aliased command being run helpful for debugging purposes.
A test case is added to ensure the full command output is present in
the execution flow.

When writing inline shell for shell-expansion aliases (i.e. prefixed
with "!"), there are some caveats around argument parsing to be aware
of. This series of notes attempts to explain what is happening more
clearly.

Merge down a handful of topics to adjust tests and CI to make them
work better, without changing Git itself, and a bit of developer
docs update:
* Tests that try to corrupt in-repository files in chunked format did
not work well on macOS due to its broken "mv", which has been
worked around.
* Unbreak CI jobs so that we do not attempt to use Python 2 that has
been removed from the platform.
* Git 2.43 started using the tree of HEAD as the source of attributes
in a bare repository, which has severe performance implications.
For now, revert the change, without ripping out a more explicit
support for the attr.tree configuration variable.
* Windows CI running in GitHub Actions started complaining about the
order of arguments given to calloc(); the imported regex code uses
the wrong order almost consistently, which has been corrected.

The strcmp-offset tests have been rewritten using the unit test

The chainlint script (invoked during "make test") did nothing when
it failed to detect the number of available CPUs. It now falls
back to 1 CPU to avoid the problem.

The base topic started to make it an error for a command to leave
the hash algorithm unspecified, which revealed a few commands that
were not ready for the change. Give users a knob to revert back to
the "default is sha-1" behaviour as an escape hatch, and start
fixing these breakages.
* jc/undecided-is-not-necessarily-sha1-fix:
apply: fix uninitialized hash function
builtin/hash-object: fix uninitialized hash function
builtin/patch-id: fix uninitialized hash function
t1517: test commands that are designed to be run outside repository
setup: add an escape hatch for "no more default hash algorithm" change
Further clean-up the refs subsystem to stop relying on
the_repository, and instead use the repository associated to the
ref_store object.

refs/packed: remove references to `the_hash_algo`
refs/files: remove references to `the_hash_algo`
refs/files: use correct repository
refs: remove `dwim_log()`
refs: drop `git_default_branch_name()`
refs: pass repo when peeling objects
refs: move object peeling into "object.c"
refs: pass ref store when detecting dangling symrefs
refs: convert iteration over replace refs to accept ref store
refs: retrieve worktree ref stores via associated repository
refs: refactor `resolve_gitlink_ref()` to accept a repository
refs: pass repo when retrieving submodule ref store
refs: track ref stores via strmap
refs: implement releasing ref storages
refs: rename `init_db` callback to avoid confusion
refs: adjust names for `init` and `init_db` callbacks
