A comment in cmd_diff() states that if one tree-ish and no blobs are
provided, (the "N=1, M=0" case), it will provide a diff between the tree
and the cache. This is incorrect because a diff happens between the
tree-ish and the working tree. Remove the `--cached` in the comment so
that the correct behavior is shown. Add a new section describing the
"N=1, M=0, --cached" behavior.
Next, describe the "N=0, M=0, --cached" case, similar to the above since
it is undocumented.

This reverts commit 72b006f4bf, which
breaks the end-user experience when merging a signed tag without
having the public key. We should report "can't check because we
have no public key", but the code with this change claimed that
there was no signature.
When searching the commit graph for tag candidates, `git-describe`
will stop as soon as there is only one active branch left and
it already found an annotated tag as a candidate.
This works well as long as all branches eventually connect back
to a common root, but if the tags are found across branches
with no common ancestor

o-----o---o----x

it can happen that the search on one branch terminates prematurely
because a tag was found on another, independent branch. This scenario
isn't quite as obscure as it sounds, since cloning with a limited
depth often introduces many independent "dead ends" into the commit
graph.
The help text of `git-describe` states pretty clearly that when
describing a commit D, the number appended to the emitted tag X should
correspond to the number of commits found by `git log X..D`.
Thus, this commit modifies the stopping condition to only abort
the search when only one branch is left to search *and* all current
best candidates are descendants from that branch.
For repositories with a single root, this condition is always
true: When the search is reduced to a single active branch, the
current commit must be an ancestor of *all* tag candidates. This
means that in the common case, this change will have no negative
performance impact since the same number of commits as before will
be traversed.

"git worktree add <path>" performs various checks before approving
<path> as a valid location for the new worktree. Aside from ensuring
that <path> does not already exist, one of the questions it asks is
whether <path> is already a registered worktree. To perform this check,
it queries find_worktree() and disallows the "add" operation if
find_worktree() finds a match for <path>. As a convenience, however,
find_worktree() casts an overly wide net to allow users to identify
worktrees by shorthand in order to keep typing to a minimum. For
instance, it performs suffix matching which, given subtrees "foo/bar"
and "foo/baz", can correctly select the latter when asked only for
"baz".
"add" validation knows the exact path it is interrogating, so this sort
of heuristic-based matching is, at best, questionable for this use-case
and, at worst, may may accidentally interpret <path> as matching an
existing worktree and incorrectly report it as already registered even
when it isn't. (In fact, validate_worktree_add() already contains a
special case to avoid accidentally matching against the main worktree,
precisely due to this problem.)
Avoid the problem of potential accidental matching against an existing
worktree by instead taking advantage of find_worktree_by_path() which
matches paths deterministically, without applying any sort of magic
shorthand matching performed by find_worktree().

If a caller sets the object_info.delta_base_sha1 to a non-NULL pointer,
we'll write the oid of the object's delta base to it. But we can
increase our type safety by switching this to a real object_id struct.
All of our callers are just pointing into the hash member of an
object_id anyway, so there's no inconvenience.
Note that we do still keep it as a pointer-to-struct, because the NULL
sentinel value tells us whether the caller is even interested in the
information.

When the pack-reuse code is dumping an OFS_DELTA entry to a client that
doesn't support it, we re-write it as a REF_DELTA. To do so, we use
nth_packed_object_sha1() to get the oid, but that function is soon going
away in favor of the more type-safe nth_packed_object_id(). Let's switch
now in preparation.
Note that this does incur an extra hash copy (from the pack idx mmap to
the object_id and then to the output, rather than straight from mmap to
the output). But this is not worth worrying about. It's probably not
measurable even when it triggers, and this is fallback code that we
expect to trigger very rarely (since everybody supports OFS_DELTA these
days anyway).

When we're considering reusing an on-disk delta, we get the oid of the
base as a pointer to unsigned char bytes of the hash, either into the
packfile itself (for REF_DELTA) or into the pack idx (using the revindex
to convert the offset into an index entry).
Instead, we'd prefer to use a more type-safe object_id as much as
possible. We can get the pack idx using nth_packed_object_id() instead.
For the packfile bytes, we can copy them out using oidread().
This doesn't even incur an extra copy overall, since the next thing we'd
always do with that pointer is pass it to can_reuse_delta(), which needs
an object_id anyway (and called oidread() itself). So this patch also
converts that function to take the object_id directly.
Note that we did previously use NULL as a sentinel value when the object
isn't a delta. We could probably get away with using the null oid for
this, but instead we'll use an explicit boolean flag, which should make
things more obvious for people reading the code later.

Our nth_packed_object_sha1() function returns NULL for error. So when we
wrapped it with nth_packed_object_oid(), we kept the same semantics. But
it's a bit funny, because the caller actually passes in an out
parameter, and the pointer we return is just that same struct they
passed to us (or NULL).
It's not too terrible, but it does make the interface a little
non-idiomatic. Let's switch to our usual "0 for success, negative for
error" return value. Most callers either don't check it, or are
trivially converted. The one that requires the biggest change is
actually improved, as we can ditch an extra aliased pointer variable.
Since we are changing the interface in a subtle way that the compiler
wouldn't catch, let's also change the name to catch any topics in
flight. We can drop the 'o' and make it nth_packed_object_id(). That's
slightly shorter, but also less redundant since the 'o' stands for
"object" already.

The receive.denyCurrentBranch config option controls what happens if
you push to a branch that is checked out into a non-bare repository.
By default, it rejects it. It can be disabled via `ignore` or `warn`.
Another yet trickier option is `updateInstead`.
However, this setting was forgotten when the git worktree command was
introduced: only the main worktree's current branch is respected.
With this change, all worktrees are respected.
That change also leads to revealing another bug,
i.e. `receive.denyCurrentBranch = true` was ignored when pushing into a
non-bare repository's unborn current branch using ref namespaces. As
`is_ref_checked_out()` returns 0 which means `receive-pack` does not get
into conditional statement to switch `deny_current_branch` accordingly
(ignore, warn, refuse, unconfigured, updateInstead).
receive.denyCurrentBranch uses the function `refs_resolve_ref_unsafe()`
(called via `resolve_refdup()`) to resolve the symbolic ref HEAD, but
that function fails when HEAD does not point at a valid commit.
As we replace the call to `refs_resolve_ref_unsafe()` with
`find_shared_symref()`, which has no problem finding the worktree for a
given branch even if it is unborn yet, this bug is fixed at the same
time: receive.denyCurrentBranch now also handles worktrees with unborn
branches as intended even while using ref namespaces.

When using partial clone, find_non_local_tags() in builtin/fetch.c
checks each remote tag to see if its object also exists locally. There
is no expectation that the object exist locally, but this function
nevertheless triggers a lazy fetch if the object does not exist. This
can be extremely expensive when asking for a commit, as we are
completely removed from the context of the non-existent object and
thus supply no "haves" in the request.
6462d5eb9a (fetch: remove fetch_if_missing=0, 2019-11-05) removed a
global variable that prevented these fetches in favor of a bitflag.
However, some object existence checks were not updated to use this flag.
Update find_non_local_tags() to use OBJECT_INFO_SKIP_FETCH_OBJECT in
addition to OBJECT_INFO_QUICK. The _QUICK option only prevents
repreparing the pack-file structures. We need to be extremely careful
about supplying _SKIP_FETCH_OBJECT when we expect an object to not exist
due to updated refs.

When "git am --show-current-patch" was added in commit 984913a210 ("am:
add --show-current-patch", 2018-02-12), "git am" started recommending it
as a replacement for .git/rebase-merge/patch. Unfortunately the suggestion
is somewhat misguided; for example, the output "git am --show-current-patch"
cannot be passed to "git apply" if it is encoded as quoted-printable or
base64. To simplify worktree operations and to avoid that users poke into
.git, it would be better if "git am" also provided a mode that copies
.git/rebase-merge/patch to stdout.
One possibility could be to have completely separate options, introducing
for example --show-current-message (for .git/rebase-apply/NNNN)
and --show-current-diff (for .git/rebase-apply/patch), while possibly
deprecating --show-current-patch.
That would even remove the need for the first two patches in the series.
However, the long common prefix would have prevented using an abbreviated
option such as "--show". Therefore, I chose instead to add a string
argument to --show-current-patch. The new argument is optional, so that
"git am --show-current-patch"'s behavior remains backwards-compatible.
The next choice to make is how to handle multiple --show-current-patch
options. Right now, something like "git am --abort --show-current-patch"
is rejected, and the previous suggestion would likewise have naturally
rejected a command line like
git am --show-current-message --show-current-diff
Therefore, I decided to also reject for example
git am --show-current-patch=diff --show-current-patch=raw
In other words the whole of --show-current-patch=xxx (including the
optional argument) is treated as the command mode. I found this to be
more consistent and intuitive, even though it differs from the usual
"last one wins" semantics of the git command line.
Add the code to parse submodes based on the above design, where for now
"raw" is the only valid submode. "raw" prints the full e-mail message
just like "git am --show-current-patch".

Eliminate crude option parsing and rely on real parsing instead, because
1) Crude parsing is crude, for example it's not capable of

2) Adding options in two places is inconvenient and prone to bugs
As a side result, the case of `git stash -m Message` gets fixed.
Also give a good error message instead of just throwing usage at user.
----
Some review of what's been happening to this code:
Before [1], `git-stash.sh` only verified that all args begin with `-` :
# The default command is "push" if nothing but options are given
seen_non_option=
for opt
do
case "$opt" in
--) break ;;
-*) ;;
*) seen_non_option=t; break ;;
esac
done
Later, [1] introduced the duplicate code I'm now removing, also making
the previous test more strict by white-listing options.

Decisions taken for simplicity:
1) It is not allowed to pass pathspec in both args and file.
Adjustments were needed for `if (!argc)` block:
This code actually means "pathspec is not present". Previously, pathspec
could only come from commandline arguments, so testing for `argc` was a
valid way of testing for the presence of pathspec. But this is no longer
true with `--pathspec-from-file`.
During the entire `--pathspec-from-file` story, I tried to keep its
behavior very close to giving pathspec on commandline, so that switching
from one to another doesn't involve any surprises.
However, throwing usage at user in the case of empty
`--pathspec-from-file` would puzzle because there's nothing wrong with
"usage" (that is, argc/argv array).
On the other hand, throwing usage in the old case also feels bad to me.
While it's less of a puzzle, I (as user) never liked the experience of
comparing my commandline to "usage", trying to spot a difference. Since
it's already known what the error is, it feels a lot better to give that
specific error to user.
Judging from [1] it doesn't seem that showing usage in this case was
important (the patch was to avoid segfault), and it doesn't fit into how
other commands react to empty pathspec (see for example `git add` with a
custom message).
Therefore, I decided to show new error text in both cases. In order to
continue testing for error early, I moved `parse_pathspec()` higher. Now
it happens before `read_cache()` / `hold_locked_index()` /
`setup_work_tree()`, which shouldn't cause any issues.

Let's refactor code from bisect_next_check() into a new
decide_next() helper function.
This removes some goto statements and makes the code simpler,
clearer and easier to understand.
While at it `bad_ref` and `good_glob` are not const any more
to void casting them inside `free()`.

Let's rename variable retval to res, so that variable names
in bisect--helper.c are more consistent.
After this change, there are 110 occurrences of res in the file
and zero of retval, while there were 26 instances of retval before.

Instead of using a pointer that points at a constant string,
just give name directly to the constant string; this way, we
do not have to allocate a pointer variable in addition to
the string we want to use.
Let's convert `vocab_bad` and `vocab_good` char pointers to char arrays.

check-ignore has two different modes, and neither of these modes has an
implementation that matches the documentation. These modes differ in
whether they just print paths or whether they also print the final
pattern matched by the path. The fix is different for both modes, so
I'll discuss both separately.
=== First (default) mode ===
The first mode is documented as:
For each pathname given via the command-line or from a file via
--stdin, check whether the file is excluded by .gitignore (or other
input files to the exclude mechanism) and output the path if it is
excluded.
However, it fails to do this because it did not account for negated
patterns. Commands other than check-ignore verify exclusion rules via
calling
... -> treat_one_path() -> is_excluded() -> last_matching_pattern()
while check-ignore has a call path of the form:
... -> check_ignore() -> last_matching_pattern()
The fact that the latter does not include the call to is_excluded()
means that it is susceptible to to messing up negated patterns (since
that is the only significant thing is_excluded() adds over
last_matching_pattern()). Unfortunately, we can't make it just call
is_excluded(), because the same codepath is used by the verbose mode
which needs to know the matched pattern in question. This brings us
to...
=== Second (verbose) mode ===
The second mode, known as verbose mode, references the first in the
documentation and says:
Also output details about the matching pattern (if any) for each
given pathname. For precedence rules within and between exclude
sources, see gitignore(5).
The "Also" means it will print patterns that match the exclude rules as
noted for the first mode, and also print which pattern matches. Unless
more information is printed than just pathname and pattern (which is not
done), this definition is somewhat ill-defined and perhaps even
self-contradictory for negated patterns: A path which matches a negated
exclude pattern is NOT excluded and thus shouldn't be printed by the
former logic, while it certainly does match one of the explicit patterns
and thus should be printed by the latter logic.
=== Resolution ==
Since the second mode exists to find out which pattern matches given
paths, and showing the user a pattern that begins with a '!' is
sufficient for them to figure out whether the pattern is excluded, the
existing behavior is desirable -- we just need to update the
documentation to match the implementation (i.e. it is about printing
which pattern is matched by paths, not about showing which paths are
excluded).
For the first or default mode, users just want to know whether a pattern
is excluded. As such, the existing documentation is desirable; change
the implementation to match the documented behavior.
Finally, also adjust a few tests in t0008 that were caught up by this
discrepancy in how negated paths were handled.

"git config" learned to show in which "scope", in addition to in
which file, each config setting comes from.
* mr/show-config-scope:
config: add '--show-scope' to print the scope of a config value
submodule-config: add subomdule config scope
config: teach git_config_source to remember its scope
config: preserve scope in do_git_config_sequence
config: clarify meaning of command line scoping
config: split repo scope to local and worktree
config: make scope_name non-static and rename it
t1300: create custom config file without special characters
t1300: fix over-indented HERE-DOCs
config: fix typo in variable name
