Currently, (restore, checkout, reset) commands correctly take '@' as a
synonym for 'HEAD'. However, in patch mode different prompts/messages
are given on command line due to patch mode machinery not considering
'@' to be a synonym for 'HEAD' due to literal string comparison with
the word 'HEAD', and therefore assigning patch_mode_($command)_nothead
and triggering reverse mode (-R in diff-index). The NEEDSWORK comment
suggested comparing commit objects to get around this. However, doing
so would also take a non-checked out branch pointing to the same commit
as HEAD, as HEAD. This would cause confusion to the user.
Therefore, after parsing '@', replace it with 'HEAD' as reasonably
early as possible. This also solves another problem of disparity
between 'git checkout HEAD' and 'git checkout @' (latter detaches at
the HEAD commit and the former does not).
Trade-offs:
- Some of the errors would show the revision argument as 'HEAD' when
given '@'. This should be fine, as most users who probably use '@'
would be aware that it is a shortcut for 'HEAD' and most probably
used to use 'HEAD'. There is also relevant documentation in
'gitrevisions' manpage about '@' being the shortcut for 'HEAD'. Also,
the simplicity of the solution far outweighs this cost.
- Consider '@' as a shortcut for 'HEAD' even if 'refs/heads/@' exists
at a different commit. Naming a branch '@' is an obvious foot-gun and
many existing commands already take '@' for 'HEAD' even if
'refs/heads/@' exists at a different commit or does not exist at all
(e.g. 'git log @', 'git push origin @' etc.). Therefore this is an
existing assumption and should not be a problem.

In a previous commit we removed some hardcoded config variable names from
function __git_complete_config_variable_name in the completion script by
introducing a new function,
__git_compute_first_level_config_vars_for_section.
The remaining hardcoded config variables are "second level"
configuration variables, meaning 'branch.<name>.upstream',
'remote.<name>.url', etc. where <name> is a user-defined name.
Making use of the new existing --config flag to 'git help', add a new
function, __git_compute_second_level_config_vars_for_section. This
function takes as argument a config section name and computes the
corresponding second-level config variables, i.e. those that contain a
'<' which indicates the start of a placeholder. Note that as in
__git_compute_first_level_config_vars_for_section added previsouly, we
use indirect expansion instead of associative arrays to stay compatible
with Bash 3 on which macOS is stuck for licensing reasons.
As explained in the previous commit, we use the existing pattern in the
completion script of using global variables to cache the list of
variables for each section.
Use this new function and the variables it defines in
__git_complete_config_variable_name to remove hardcoded config
variables, and add a test to verify the new function. Use a single
'case' for all sections with second-level variables names, since the
code for each of them is now exactly the same.
Adjust the name of a test added in a previous commit to reflect that it
now tests the added function.

The function __git_complete_config_variable_name in the Bash completion
script hardcodes several config variable names. These variables are
those in config sections where user-defined names can appear, such as
"branch.<name>". These sections are treated first by the case statement,
and the two last "catch all" cases are used for other sections, making
use of the __git_compute_config_vars and __git_compute_config_sections
function, which omit listing any variables containing wildcards or
placeholders. Having hardcoded config variables introduces the risk of
the completion code becoming out of sync with the actual config
variables accepted by Git.
To avoid these hardcoded config variables, introduce a new function,
__git_compute_first_level_config_vars_for_section, making use of the
existing __git_config_vars variable. This function takes as argument a
config section name and computes the matching "first level" config
variables for that section, i.e. those _not_ containing any placeholder,
like 'branch.autoSetupMerge, 'remote.pushDefault', etc. Use this
function and the variables it defines in the 'branch.*', 'remote.*' and
'submodule.*' switches of the case statement instead of hardcoding the
corresponding config variables. Note that we use indirect expansion to
create a variable for each section, instead of using a single
associative array indexed by section names, because associative arrays
are not supported in Bash 3, on which macOS is stuck for licensing
reasons.
Use the existing pattern in the completion script of using global
variables to cache the list of config variables for each section. The
rationale for such caching is explained in eaa4e6ee2a (Speed up bash
completion loading, 2009-11-17), and the current approach to using and
defining them via 'test -n' is explained in cf0ff02a38 (completion: work

special logic to deal with config variables involving user-defined

Rebase records the oid of HEAD before rebasing and the commit created by
"--autostash" in files in the rebase state directory. This means that
the autostash commit is never reachable from any ref or reflog and when
rebasing a detached HEAD the original HEAD can become unreachable if the
user expires HEAD's the reflog while the rebase is running. Fix this by
reading the relevant files when marking reachable commits.
Note that it is possible for the commit recorded in
.git/rebase-merge/amend to be unreachable but pruning that object does
not affect the operation of "git rebase --continue" as we're only
interested in the object id, not in the object itself.

Update the ref sorting functions of 'ref-filter.c' so that when date fields
are specified with a format string (such as in 'git for-each-ref
--sort=creatordate:<something>'), they are sorted by their formatted string
value rather than by the underlying numeric timestamp. Currently, date
fields are always sorted by timestamp, regardless of whether formatting
information is included in the '--sort' key.
Leaving the default (unformatted) date sorting unchanged, sorting by the
formatted date string adds some flexibility to 'for-each-ref' by allowing
for behavior like "sort by year, then by refname within each year" or "sort
by time of day". Because the inclusion of a format string previously had no
effect on sort behavior, this change likely will not affect existing usage
of 'for-each-ref' or other ref listing commands.
Additionally, update documentation & tests to document the new sorting
mechanism.

"git show-ref --verify" is useful for scripts that want to look up a
fully qualified refname without falling back to the DWIM rules used by
"git rev-parse" rules when the ref does not exist. Currently it will
only accept "HEAD" or a refname beginning with "refs/". Running
git show-ref --verify CHERRY_PICK_HEAD
will always result in
fatal: 'CHERRY_PICK_HEAD' - not a valid ref
even when CHERRY_PICK_HEAD exists. By calling refname_is_safe() instead
of comparing the refname to "HEAD" we can accept all one-level refs that
contain only uppercase ascii letters and underscores.

Due to scalability issues, Shawn Pearce has originally proposed a new
"reftable" format more than six years ago [1]. Initially, this new
format was implemented in JGit with promising results. Around two years
ago, we have then added the "reftable" library to the Git codebase via
a4bbd13be3 (Merge branch 'hn/reftable', 2021-12-15). With this we have
landed all the low-level code to read and write reftables. Notably
missing though was the integration of this low-level code into the Git
code base in the form of a new ref backend that ties all of this
together.
This gap is now finally closed by introducing a new "reftable" backend
into the Git codebase. This new backend promises to bring some notable
improvements to Git repositories:
- It becomes possible to do truly atomic writes where either all refs
are committed to disk or none are. This was not possible with the
"files" backend because ref updates were split across multiple loose
files.
- The disk space required to store many refs is reduced, both compared
to loose refs and packed-refs. This is enabled both by the reftable
format being a binary format, which is more compact, and by prefix
compression.
- We can ignore filesystem-specific behaviour as ref names are not
encoded via paths anymore. This means there is no need to handle
case sensitivity on Windows systems or Unicode precomposition on
macOS.
- There is no need to rewrite the complete refdb anymore every time a
ref is being deleted like it was the case for packed-refs. This
means that ref deletions are now constant time instead of scaling
linearly with the number of refs.
- We can ignore file/directory conflicts so that it becomes possible
to store both "refs/heads/foo" and "refs/heads/foo/bar".
- Due to this property we can retain reflogs for deleted refs. We have
previously been deleting reflogs together with their refs to avoid
file/directory conflicts, which is not necessary anymore.
- We can properly enumerate all refs. With the "files" backend it is
not easily possible to distinguish between refs and non-refs because
they may live side by side in the gitdir.
Not all of these improvements are realized with the current "reftable"
backend implementation. At this point, the new backend is supposed to be
a drop-in replacement for the "files" backend that is used by basically
all Git repositories nowadays. It strives for 1:1 compatibility, which
means that a user can expect the same behaviour regardless of whether
they use the "reftable" backend or the "files" backend for most of the
part.
Most notably, this means we artificially limit the capabilities of the
"reftable" backend to match the limits of the "files" backend. It is not
possible to create refs that would end up with file/directory conflicts,
we do not retain reflogs, we perform stricter-than-necessary checks.
This is done intentionally due to two main reasons:
- It makes it significantly easier to land the "reftable" backend as
tests behave the same. It would be tough to argue for each and every
single test that doesn't pass with the "reftable" backend.
- It ensures compatibility between repositories that use the "files"
backend and repositories that use the "reftable" backend. Like this,
hosters can migrate their repositories to use the "reftable" backend
without causing issues for clients that use the "files" backend in
their clones.
It is expected that these artificial limitations may eventually go away
in the long term.
Performance-wise things very much depend on the actual workload. The
following benchmarks compare the "files" and "reftable" backends in the
current version:
- Creating N refs in separate transactions shows that the "files"
backend is ~50% faster. This is not surprising given that creating a
ref only requires us to create a single loose ref. The "reftable"
backend will also perform auto compaction on updates. In real-world
workloads we would likely also want to perform pack loose refs,
which would likely change the picture.

So overall, performance depends on the usecases. Except for many
sequential writes the "reftable" backend is roughly on par or
significantly faster than the "files" backend though. Given that the
"files" backend has received 18 years of optimizations by now this can
be seen as a win. Furthermore, we can expect that the "reftable" backend
will grow faster over time when attention turns more towards
optimizations.
The complete test suite passes, except for those tests explicitly marked
to require the REFFILES prerequisite. Some tests in t0610 are marked as
failing because they depend on still-in-flight bug fixes. Tests can be
run with the new backend by setting the GIT_TEST_DEFAULT_REF_FORMAT
environment variable to "reftable".
There is a single known conceptual incompatibility with the dumb HTTP
transport. As "info/refs" SHOULD NOT contain the HEAD reference, and
because the "HEAD" file is not valid anymore, it is impossible for the
remote client to figure out the default branch without changing the
protocol. This shortcoming needs to be handled in a subsequent patch
series.
As the reftable library has already been introduced a while ago, this
commit message will not go into the details of how exactly the on-disk
format works. Please refer to our preexisting technical documentation at
Documentation/technical/reftable for this.

are the same as for visualize, making completion less rather than more

The default initial branch name can normally be configured using the

when testing e.g. <rev> completion it's convenient to know the

The git-stash(1) command needs to write to the index for many of its
operations. When the index is locked by a concurrent writer it will thus
fail to operate, which is expected. What is not expected though is that
we do not print any error message at all in this case. The user can thus
easily miss the fact that the command didn't do what they expected it to
do and would be left wondering why that is.
Fix this bug and report failures to write to the index. Add tests for

While at it, unify error messages when writing to the index fails. The

Now that multi-pack reuse is supported, enable it via the
feature.experimental configuration in addition to the classic
`pack.allowPackReuse`.
This will allow more users to experiment with the new behavior who might
not otherwise be aware of the existing `pack.allowPackReuse`
configuration option.
The enum with values NO_PACK_REUSE, SINGLE_PACK_REUSE, and
MULTI_PACK_REUSE is defined statically in builtin/pack-objects.c's
compilation unit. We could hoist that enum into a scope visible from the
repository_settings struct, and then use that enum value in
pack-objects. Instead, define a single int that indicates what
pack-objects's default value should be to avoid additional unnecessary
code movement.
Though `feature.experimental` implies `pack.allowPackReuse=multi`, this
can still be overridden by explicitly setting the latter configuration
to either "single" or "false". Tests covering all of these cases are
showin t5332.

git-index-pack has a --strict option that can take an optional argument
to provide a list of fsck issues to change their severity.
--fsck-objects does not have such a utility, which would be useful if
one would like to be more lenient or strict on data integrity in a
repository.
Like --strict, allow --fsck-objects to also take a list of fsck msgs to
change the severity.
Remove the "For internal use only" note for --fsck-objects, and document
the option. This won't often be used by the normal end user, but it
turns out it is useful for Git forges like GitLab.

We decide on the set of unit tests to run by asking make to expand the
wildcard "t/unit-tests/bin/*". One unfortunate outcome of this is that
we'll run anything in that directory, even if it is leftover cruft from
a previous build. This isn't _quite_ as bad as it sounds, since in
theory the unit tests executables are self-contained (so if they passed
before, they'll pass even though they now have nothing to do with the
checked out version of Git). But at the very least it's wasteful, and if
they _do_ fail it can be quite confusing to understand why they are
being run at all.
This wildcarding presumably came from our handling of the regular
shell-script tests, which use $(wildcard t[0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9]-*.sh).
But the difference there is that those are actual tracked files. So if
you checkout a different commit, they'll go away. Whereas the contents
of unit-tests/bin are ignored (so not only do they stick around, but you
are not even warned of the stale files via "git status").
This patch fixes the situation by looking for the actual unit-test
source files and then massaging those names into the final executable
names. This has two additional benefits:
1. It will notice if we failed to build one or more unit-tests for
some reason (whereas the current code just runs whatever made it to
the bin/ directory).
2. The wildcard should avoid other build cruft, like the pdb files we
worked around in 0df903d402 (unit-tests: do not mistake `.pdb`
files for being executable, 2023-09-25).
Our new wildcard does make an assumption that unit tests are built from
C sources. It would be a bit cleaner if we consulted UNIT_TEST_PROGRAMS
from the top-level Makefile. But doing so is tricky unless we reorganize
that Makefile to split the source file lists into include-able subfiles.
That might be worth doing in general, but in the meantime, the
assumptions made by the wildcard here seems reasonable.
Note that we do need to include config.mak.uname either way, though, as
we need the value of $(X) to compute the correct executable names (which
would be true even if we had access to the top-level's UNIT_TEST_PROGRAMS
variable).

skipping those tests that haven't set "TEST_PASSES_SANITIZE_LEAK=true"

In 10f5c52656 (submodule: avoid auto-discovery in
prepare_submodule_repo_env(), 2016-09-01) we fixed a bug when doing a
recursive fetch with submodule in the case where the submodule is broken
due to whatever reason. The test to exercise that the fix works breaks
the submodule by deleting its `HEAD` reference, which will cause us to
not detect the directory as a Git repository.
While this is perfectly fine in theory, this way of breaking the repo
becomes problematic with the current efforts to introduce another refdb
backend into Git. The new reftable backend has a stub HEAD file that
always contains "ref: refs/heads/.invalid" so that tools continue to be
able to detect such a repository. But as the reftable backend will never
delete this file even when asked to delete `HEAD` the current way to
delete the `HEAD` reference will stop working.
Adapt the code to instead delete the objects database. Going back with
this new way to cause breakage confirms that it triggers the infinite
recursion just the same, and there are no equivalent ongoing efforts to
replace the object database with an alternate backend.

With 59c35fac54 (refs/packed-backend.c: implement jump lists to avoid
excluded pattern(s), 2023-07-10) we have implemented logic to handle
excluded refs more efficiently in the "packed" ref backend. This logic
allows us to skip emitting refs completely which we know to not be of
any interest to the caller, which can avoid quite some allocations and
object lookups.
This was wired up via a new `exclude_patterns` parameter passed to the
backend's ref iterator. The backend only needs to handle them on a best
effort basis though, and in fact we only handle it for the "packed-refs"
file, but not for loose references. Consequently, all callers must still
filter emitted refs with those exclude patterns.
The result is that handling exclude patterns is completely optional in
the ref backend, and any future backends may or may not implement it.
Let's thus mark the test for t1419 to depend on the REFFILES prereq.
An alternative would be to introduce a new prereq that tells us whether
the backend under test supports exclude patterns or not. But this does
feel a bit overblown:
- It would either map to the REFFILES prereq, in which case it feels
overengineered because the prereq is only ever relevant to t1419.
- Otherwise, it could auto-detect whether the backend supports exclude
patterns. But this could lead to silent failures in case the support
for this feature breaks at any point in time.
It should thus be good enough to just use the REFFILES prereq for now.
If future backends ever grow support for exclude patterns we can easily
add their respective prereq as another condition for this test suite to
execute.

In t1302 we exercise logic around "core.repositoryFormatVersion" and
extensions. These tests are not particularly robust against extensions
like the newly introduced "refStorage" extension as we tend to clobber
the repository's config file. We thus overwrite any extensions that were
set, which may render the repository inaccessible in case it has to be
accessed with a non-default ref storage.
Refactor the tests to be more robust:
- Check the DEFAULT_REPO_FORMAT prereq to determine the expected
repository format version. This helps to ensure that we only need to
update the prereq in a central place when new extensions are added.
Furthermore, this allows us to stop seeding the now-unneeded object
ID cache that was only used to figure out the repository version.
- Use a separate repository to rewrite ".git/config" to test
combinations of the repository format version and extensions. This
ensures that we don't break the main test repository. While we could
rewrite these tests to not overwrite preexisting extensions, it
feels cleaner like this so that we can test extensions standalone
without interference from the environment.
- Do not rewrite ".git/config" when exercising the "preciousObjects"
extension.

The t1300 test suite exercises the git-config(1) tool. To do so, the
test overwrites ".git/config" to contain custom contents in several
places with code like the following:
```
cat > .git/config <<\EOF
...
EOF
```
While this is easy enough to do, it may create problems when using a
non-default repository format because this causes us to overwrite the
repository format version as well as any potential extensions. With the
upcoming "reftable" ref backend the result is that Git would try to
access refs via the "files" backend even though the repository has been
initialized with the "reftable" backend, which will cause failures when
trying to access any refs.
Ideally, we would rewrite the whole test suite to not depend on state
written by previous tests, but that would result in a lot of changes in
this test suite. Instead, we only refactor tests which access the refdb
to be more robust by using their own separate repositories, which allows
us to be more careful and not discard required extensions.
Note that we also have to touch up how the CUSTOM_CONFIG_FILE gets
accessed. This environment variable contains the relative path to a
custom config file which we're setting up. But because we are now using
subrepositories, this relative path will not be found anymore because
our working directory changes. This issue is addressed by storing the
absolute path to the file in CUSTOM_CONFIG_FILE instead.

Running this:
$ touch foo bar
$ chmod +x foo
$ git -c diff.external=echo diff --ext-diff --no-index foo bar
results in a segfault. The issue is that run_diff_cmd() passes a NULL
"xfrm_msg" variable to run_external_diff(), which feeds it to
strvec_push(), causing the segfault. The bug dates back to 82fbf269b9
(run_external_diff: use an argv_array for the command line, 2014-04-19),
though it mostly only ever worked accidentally. Before then, we just
stuck the NULL pointer into a "const char **" array, so our NULL ended
up acting as an extra end-of-argv sentinel (which was OK, because it was
the last thing in the array).
Curiously, though, this is only a problem with --no-index. We set up
xfrm_msg by calling fill_metainfo(). This result may be empty, or may
have text like "index 1234..5678\n", "rename from foo\nrename from
bar\n", etc. In run_external_diff(), we only look at xfrm_msg if the
"other" variable is not NULL. That variable is set when the paths of the
two sides of the diff pair aren't the same (in which case the
destination path becomes "other"). So normally it would kick in only for
a rename, in which case xfrm_msg should not be NULL (it would have the
rename information in it).
But with a "--no-index" of two blobs, we of course have two different
pathnames, and thus end up with a non-NULL "other" filename (which is
always just a repeat of the file2-name), but possibly a NULL xfrm_msg.
So how to fix it? I have a feeling that --no-index always passing
"other" to the external diff command is probably a bug. There was no
rename, and the name is always redundant with existing information we
pass (and this may even cause us to pass a useless "xfrm_msg" that
contains an "index 1234..5678" line). So one option would be to change
that behavior. We don't seem to have ever documented the "other" or
"xfrm_msg" parameters for external diffs.
But I'm not sure what fallout we might have from changing that behavior
now. So this patch takes the less-risky option, and simply teaches
run_external_diff() to avoid passing xfrm_msg when it's NULL. That makes
it agnostic to whether "other" and "xfrm_msg" always come as a pair. It
fixes the segfault now, and if we want to change the --no-index "other"
behavior on top, it will handle that, too.

This patch fixes a bug where fetch over http (or any helper) using the
v0 protocol may sometimes fail to auto-follow tags. The bug comes from
61c7711cfe (sha1-file: use loose object cache for quick existence check,
2018-11-12). But to explain why (and why this is the right fix), let's
take a step back.
After fetching a pack, the object database has changed, but we may still
hold in-memory caches that are now out of date. Traditionally this was
just the packed_git list, but 61c7711cfe started using a loose-object
cache, as well.
Usually these caches are invalidated automatically. When an expected
object cannot be found, the low-level object lookup routines call
reprepare_packed_git(), which re-scans the set of packs (and thanks to
some preparatory patches ahead of 61c7711cfe, throws away the loose
object cache). But not all calls do this! In some cases we expect that
the object might not exist, and pass OBJECT_INFO_QUICK to tell the
low-level routines not to bother re-scanning. And the tag auto-following
code is one such caller, since we are asking about oids that the other
side has (but we might not have locally).
To deal with this, we explicitly call reprepare_packed_git() ourselves
after fetching a pack; this goes all the way back to 48ec3e5c07
(Incorporate fetched packs in future object traversal, 2008-06-15). But
that only helps if we call fetch_pack() in the main fetch process. When
we're using a transport helper, it happens in a separate sub-process,
and the parent process is left with old values. So this is only a
problem with protocols which require a separate helper process (like
http).
This patch fixes it by teaching the parent process in the transport
helper relationship to make that same reprepare call after the helper
finishes fetching.
You might be left with some lingering questions, like:
1. Why only the v0 protocol, and not v2? It's because in v2 the child
helper doesn't actually run fetch_pack(); it merely establishes a
tunnel over which the main process can talk to the remote side (so
the fetch_pack() and reprepare happen in the main process).
2. Wouldn't we have the same bug even before the 61c7711cfe added
the loose object cache? For example, when we store the fetch as a
pack locally, wouldn't our packed_git list still be out of date?
If we store a pack, everything works because other parts of the
fetch process happen to trigger a call to reprepare_packed_git().
In particular, before storing whatever ref was originally
requested, we'll make sure we have the pointed-to object, and that
call happens without the QUICK flag. So in that case we'll see that
we don't know about it, reprepare, and then repeat our lookup. And
now we _do_ know about the pack, and further calls with QUICK will
find its contents.
Whereas when we unpack the result into loose objects, we never get
that same invalidation trigger. We didn't have packs before, and we
don't after. But when we do the loose object lookup, we find the
object. There's no way to realize that we didn't have the object
before the pack, and that having it now means things have changed
(in theory we could do a superfluous cache lookup to see that it
was missing from the old cache; but depending on the tags the other
side showed us, we might not even have filled in that part of the
cache earlier).
3. Why does the included test use "--depth 1"? This is important
because without it, we happen to invalidate the cache as a side
effect of other parts of the fetch process. What happens in a
non-shallow fetch is something like this:
1. we call find_non_local_tags() once before actually getting the
pack, to see if there are any tags we can fill in from what we
already have. This fills in the cache (which is obviously
missing objects we're about to fetch).
2. before fetching the actual pack, fetch_and_consume_refs()
calls check_exist_and_connected(), to see if we even need to
fetch a pack at all. This doesn't use QUICK (though arguably
it could, as it's purely an optimization). And since it sees
there are objects we are indeed missing, that triggers a
reprepare_packed_git() call, which throws out the loose object
cache.
3. after fetching, now we call find_non_local_tags() again. And
since step (2) invalidated our loose object cache, we find
the new objects and create the tags.
So everything works, but mostly due to luck. Whereas in a fetch
with --depth, we skip step 2 entirely, and thus the out-of-date
cache is still in place for step 3, giving us the wrong answer.
So the test works with a small "--depth 1" fetch, which makes sure that
we don't store the pack from the other side, and that we don't trigger
the accidental cache invalidation. And of course it forces the use of
v0 along with using the http protocol.

In t7527, we test that the builtin fsmonitor daemon works well in

events reported by the fsmonitor--daemon are missing an expected event.
This failure is essentially a race condition: we do not wait for the
daemon to flush out all events before we ask it to quit. Consequently,
it can happen that we miss some expected events.
In other testcases we counteract this race by sending a simple query to
the daemon. Quoting a comment:
We run a simple query after modifying the filesystem just to introduce
a bit of a delay so that the trace logging from the daemon has time to
get flushed to disk.
Now this workaround is not a "proper" fix as we do not wait for all
events to have been synchronized in a deterministic way. But this fix
seems to be sufficient for all the other tests to pass, so it must not
be all that bad.
Convert the failing test to do the same. While the test was previously
failing in about 50% of the test runs, I couldn't reproduce the failure
after the change anymore.

9080a7f178 (builtin/show-ref: add new mode to check for reference
existence, 2023-10-31) added the option --exists to git-show-ref(1).
When you use this option against a ref that doesn't exist, but it is
a parent directory of an existing ref, you get the following error:
$ git show-ref --exists refs/heads
error: failed to look up reference: Is a directory
when the ref-files backend is in use. To be more clear to user,
hide the error about having found a directory. What matters to the
user is that the named ref does not exist. Instead, print the same
error as when the ref was not found:
error: reference does not exist

The 'check-name' subcommand to 'test-tool submodule' is documented as being
able to take a command line argument '<name>'. However, this does not work -
and has never worked - because 'argc > 0' triggers the usage message in
'cmd__submodule_check_name()'. To simplify the helper and avoid future
confusion around proper use of the subcommand, remove any references to
command line arguments for 'check-name' in usage strings and handling in
'check_name()'.

Add tests for amending the commit to add Signed-off-by trailer. And
also to check if it does not add another trailer if one already exists.
Currently, there are tests for --signoff separately in t7501, however,
they are not tested with --amend.
Therefore, these tests belong with other similar tests of --amend in
t7501-commit-basic-functionality.

Add tests for --only (-o) and --include (-i). This include testing
with or without staged changes for both -i and -o. Also to test
for committing untracked files with -i, -o and without -i/-o.
Some tests already exist in t7501 for testing --only, however,
it is only tested in combination with --amend and --allow-empty
and on to-be-born branch. The addition of these tests check, when
the pathspec is provided without using -only, that only the files
matching the pathspec get committed. This behavior is same when
we provide --only and it is checked by the tests.
(as --only is the default mode of operation when pathspec is
provided.)
As for --include, there is no prior test for checking if --include
also commits staged changes, thus add test for that. Along with
the tests also document a potential bug, in which, when provided
with -i and a pathspec that does not match any tracked path,
commit does not fail if there are staged changes. And when there
are no staged changes commit fails. However, no error is returned
to stderr in either of the cases. This is described in the TODO
comment before the relevent testcase.
And also add a test for checking incompatibilty when using -o and
-i together.
Thus, these tests belong in t7501 with other similar existing tests,
as described in the case of --only.

Using advise_if_enabled() to display an advice will automatically
include instructions on how to disable the advice, alongside the main
advice:
hint: use --reapply-cherry-picks to include skipped commits
hint: Disable this message with "git config advice.skippedCherryPicks false"
To do so, we provide a knob which can be used to disable the advice.
But also to tell us the opposite: to show the advice.
Let's not include the deactivation instructions for an advice if the

The `__git_pseudoref_exists ()` helper function back to git-rev-parse(1)
in case the reftable backend is in use. This is not in the same spirit
as the simple existence check that the "files" backend does though,
because there we only check for the pseudo-ref to exist with `test -f`.
With git-rev-parse(1) we not only check for existence, but also verify
that the pseudo-ref resolves to an object, which may not be the case
when the pseudo-ref points to an unborn branch.
Fix this issue by using `git show-ref --exists` instead. Note that we do
not have to silence stdout anymore as git-show-ref(1) will not print
anything.

In 44dbb3bf29 (completion: support pseudoref existence checks for
reftables, 2023-12-19), we have extended the Bash completion script to
support future ref backends better by using git-rev-parse(1) to check
for pseudo-ref existence. This conversion has introduced a bug, because
even though we pass `--quiet` to git-rev-parse(1) it would still output
the resolved object ID of the ref in question if it exists.
Fix this by redirecting its stdout to `/dev/null` and add a test that
catches this behaviour. Note that the test passes even without the fix
for the "files" backend because we parse pseudo refs via the filesystem
directly in that case. But the test will fail with the "reftable"
backend.

In the recent codebase update (8bf6fbd00d (Merge branch
'js/doc-unit-tests', 2023-12-09)), a new unit testing framework was
merged, providing a standardized approach for testing C code. Prior to
this update, some unit tests relied on the test helper mechanism,
lacking a dedicated unit testing framework. It's more natural to perform
these unit tests using the new unit test framework.
This commit migrates the unit tests for C character classification
functions (isdigit(), isspace(), etc) from the legacy approach
using the test-tool command `test-tool ctype` in t/helper/test-ctype.c
to the new unit testing framework (t/unit-tests/test-lib.h).
The migration involves refactoring the tests to utilize the testing
macros provided by the framework (TEST() and check_*()).

To create error conditions, some tests set up reference locks by
directly creating its lockfile. While this works for the files reference
backend, this approach is incompatible with the reftable backend.

so that the test is reference backend agnostic.
