20b813d7d3 add: remove "add.interactive.useBuiltin" & Perl "git add--interactive"
Since [1] first released with Git v2.37.0 the built-in version of "add
-i" has been the default. That built-in implementation was added in
[2], first released with Git v2.25.0.

At this point enough time has passed to allow for finding any
remaining bugs in this new implementation, so let's remove the
fallback code.

As with similar migrations for "stash"[3] and "rebase"[4] we're
keeping a mention of "add.interactive.useBuiltin" in the
documentation, but adding a warning() to notify any outstanding users
that the built-in is now the default. As with [5] and [6] we should
follow-up in the future and eventually remove that warning.

1. 0527ccb1b5 (add -i: default to the built-in implementation,
   2021-11-30)
2. f83dff60a7 (Start to implement a built-in version of `git add
   --interactive`, 2019-11-13)
3. 8a2cd3f512 (stash: remove the stash.useBuiltin setting,
   2020-03-03)
4. d03ebd411c (rebase: remove the rebase.useBuiltin setting,
   2019-03-18)
5. deeaf5ee07 (stash: remove documentation for `stash.useBuiltin`,
   2022-01-27)
6. 9bcde4d531 (rebase: remove transitory rebase.useBuiltin setting &
   env, 2021-03-23)

7ccbea564e add -i tests: mark "TODO" depending on GIT_TEST_ADD_I_USE_BUILTIN
Fix an issue that existed before 0527ccb1b5 (add -i: default to the
built-in implementation, 2021-11-30), but which became the default
with that change, we should not be marking tests that are known to
pass as "TODO" tests.

When GIT_TEST_ADD_I_USE_BUILTIN=1 was made the default we started
passing the tests added in 0f0fba2cc8 (t3701: add a test for advanced
split-hunk editing, 2019-12-06) and 1bf01040f0 (add -p: demonstrate
failure when running 'edit' after a split, 2015-04-16).

Thus we've been emitting this sort of output:

	$ prove ./t3701-add-interactive.sh
	./t3701-add-interactive.sh .. ok
	All tests successful.

	Test Summary Report
	-------------------
	./t3701-add-interactive.sh (Wstat: 0 Tests: 70 Failed: 0)
	  TODO passed:   45, 47
	Files=1, Tests=70,  2 wallclock secs ( 0.03 usr  0.00 sys +  0.86 cusr  0.33 csys =  1.22 CPU)
	Result: PASS

Which isn't just cosmetic, but due to issues with
test_expect_failure (see [1]) we could e.g. be hiding something as bad
as a segfault in the new implementation. It makes sense catch that,
especially before we put out a release with the built-in "add -i", so
let's generalize the check we were already doing in 0527ccb1b5 with a
new "ADD_I_USE_BUILTIN" prerequisite.

0527ccb1b5 add -i: default to the built-in implementation
In 9a5315edfd (Merge branch 'js/patch-mode-in-others-in-c',
2020-02-05), Git acquired a built-in implementation of `git add`'s
interactive mode that could be turned on via the config option
`add.interactive.useBuiltin`.

The first official Git version to support this knob was v2.26.0.

In 2df2d81ddd (add -i: use the built-in version when
feature.experimental is set, 2020-09-08), this built-in implementation
was also enabled via `feature.experimental`. The first version with this
change was v2.29.0.

More than a year (and very few bug reports) later, it is time to declare
the built-in implementation mature and to turn it on by default.

We specifically leave the `add.interactive.useBuiltin` configuration in
place, to give users an "escape hatch" in the unexpected case should
they encounter a previously undetected bug in that implementation.

ed922dcab6 t2016: require the PERL prereq only when necessary
The scripted version of the interactive mode of `git add` still requires
Perl, but the built-in version does not. Let's only require the PERL
prereq if testing the scripted version.

This addresses a long-standing NEEDSWORK added in 35166b1fb5 (t2016:
add a NEEDSWORK about the PERL prerequisite, 2020-10-07).

5c29f19cda checkout -p: handle tree arguments correctly again
This fixes a segmentation fault.

The bug is caused by dereferencing `new_branch_info->commit` when it is
`NULL`, which is the case when the tree-ish argument is actually a tree,
not a commit-ish. This was introduced in 5602b500c3 (builtin/checkout:
fix `git checkout -p HEAD...` bug, 2020-10-07), where we tried to ensure
that the special tree-ish `HEAD...` is handled correctly.

35166b1fb5 t2016: add a NEEDSWORK about the PERL prerequisite
Since the builtin add-p is used when $GIT_TEST_ADD_I_USE_BUILTIN is
given, we should replace the PERL prerequisite with an ADD_I
prerequisite which first checks if $GIT_TEST_ADD_I_USE_BUILTIN is
defined before checking PERL.[0] Mark this in a NEEDSWORK so that it can
be addressed at a later time.

5602b500c3 builtin/checkout: fix git checkout -p HEAD... bug
Running `git checkout -p` with a merge-base rev results in an error:

	$ git checkout -p HEAD...

	  --patch-with-raw

	  --numstat     show numeric diffstat instead of patch.

	  -a  --text    treat all files as text.

	Cannot close git diff-index --cached --numstat --summary HEAD... -- () at <redacted>/libexec/git-core/git-add--interactive line 183.

This happens because checkout passes the literal argument (in the
example, `HEAD...`) to diff-index which does not recognise merge-base
revs.

Fix this by using the hex of the found commit instead of the given name.
Note that "HEAD" is handled specially in run_add_interactive() so it's
explicitly not changed.

0590ff26c4 t: use test_write_lines() instead of series of 'echo' commands
These tests employ a noisy subshell (with missing &&-chain) to feed
input into Git commands or files:

    (echo a; echo b; echo c) | git some-command ...

Simplify by taking advantage of test_write_lines():

    test_write_lines a b c | git some-command ...

a48fcd8369 tests: add missing &&
Breaks in a test assertion's && chain can potentially hide
failures from earlier commands in the chain.

Commands intended to fail should be marked with !, test_must_fail, or
test_might_fail.  The examples in this patch do not require that.

e1327ed5fb add-interactive: fix bogus diff header line ordering
When we look at a patch for adding hunks interactively, we
first split it into a header and a list of hunks. Some of
the header lines, such as mode changes and deletion, however,
become their own selectable hunks. Later when we reassemble
the patch, we simply concatenate the header and the selected
hunks. This leads to patches like this:

  diff --git a/file b/file
  index d95f3ad..0000000
  --- a/file
  +++ /dev/null
  deleted file mode 100644
  @@ -1 +0,0 @@
  -content

Notice how the deletion comes _after_ the ---/+++ lines,
when it should come before.

In many cases, we can get away with this as git-apply
accepts the slightly bogus input. However, in the specific
case of a deletion line that is being applied via "apply
-R", this malformed patch triggers an assert in git-apply.
This comes up when discarding a deletion via "git checkout
-p".

Rather than try to make git-apply accept our odd input,
let's just reassemble the patch in the correct order.
