4bd488ea7c create_branch: drop unused "head" parameter
This function used to have the caller pass in the current
value of HEAD, in order to make sure we didn't clobber HEAD.
In 55c4a6730, that logic moved to validate_new_branchname(),
which just resolves HEAD itself. The parameter to
create_branch is now unused.

Since we have to update and re-wrap the docstring describing
the parameters anyway, let's take this opportunity to break
it out into a list, which makes it easier to find the
parameters.

d336b67568 Merge branch 'nd/checkout-disambiguation' into maint
"git checkout <word>" does not follow the usual disambiguation
rules when the <word> can be both a rev and a path, to allow
checking out a branch 'foo' in a project that happens to have a
file 'foo' in the working tree without having to disambiguate.
This was poorly documented and the check was incorrect when the
command was run from a subdirectory.

The two functions in parse_branchname_arg(), verify_non_filename and

610d55af0f add: modify already added files when --chmod is given
When the chmod option was added to git add, it was hooked up to the diff
machinery, meaning that it only works when the version in the index
differs from the version on disk.

As the option was supposed to mirror the chmod option in update-index,
which always changes the mode in the index, regardless of the status of
the file, make sure the option behaves the same way in git add.

548009c0d5 merge_trees(): ensure that the callers release output buffer
The recursive merge machinery accumulates its output in an output
buffer, to be flushed at the end of merge_recursive(). At this point,
we forgot to release the output buffer.

When calling merge_trees() (i.e. the non-recursive part of the recursive
merge) directly, the output buffer is never flushed because the caller
may be merge_recursive() which wants to flush the output itself.

For the same reason, merge_trees() cannot release the output buffer: it
may still be needed.

Forgetting to release the output buffer did not matter much when running
git-checkout, or git-merge-recursive, because we exited after the
operation anyway. Ever since cherry-pick learned to pick a commit range,
however, this memory leak had the potential of becoming a problem.

f241ff0d0a prepare the builtins for a libified merge_recursive()
Previously, callers of merge_trees() or merge_recursive() expected that
code to die() with an error message. This used to be okay because we
called those commands from scripts, and had a chance to print out a
message in case the command failed fatally (read: with exit code 128).

As scripting incurs its own set of problems (portability, speed,
idiosyncrasies of different shells, limited data structures leading to
inefficient code), we are converting more and more of these scripts into
builtins, using library functions directly.

We already tried to use merge_recursive() directly in the builtin
git-am, for example. Unfortunately, we had to roll it back temporarily
because some of the code in merge-recursive.c still deemed it okay to
call die(), when the builtin am code really wanted to print out a useful
advice after the merge failed fatally. In the next commits, we want to
fix that.

The code touched by this commit expected merge_trees() to die() with
some useful message when there is an error condition, but merge_trees()
is going to be improved by converting all die() calls to return error()
instead (i.e. return value -1 after printing out the message as before),
so that the caller can react more flexibly.

This is a step to prepare for the version of merge_trees() that no
longer dies,  even if we just imitate the previous behavior by calling
exit(128): this is what callers of e.g. `git merge` have come to expect.

Note that the callers of the sequencer (revert and cherry-pick) already
fail fast even for the return value -1; The only difference is that they
now get a chance to say "<command> failed".

A caller of merge_trees() might want handle error messages themselves
(or even suppress them). As this patch is already complex enough, we
leave that change for a later patch.

4e55ed32db add: add --chmod=+x / --chmod=-x options
The executable bit will not be detected (and therefore will not be
set) for paths in a repository with `core.filemode` set to false,
though the users may still wish to add files as executable for
compatibility with other users who _do_ have `core.filemode`
functionality.  For example, Windows users adding shell scripts may
wish to add them as executable for compatibility with users on
non-Windows.

Although this can be done with a plumbing command
(`git update-index --add --chmod=+x foo`), teaching the `git-add`
command allows users to set a file executable with a command that
they're already familiar with.

352d72a30e Merge branch 'nd/worktree-various-heads'

8d9fdd7087 worktree.c: check whether branch is rebased in another worktree
This function find_shared_symref() is used in a couple places:

1) in builtin/branch.c: it's used to detect if a branch is checked out
   elsewhere and refuse to delete the branch.

2) in builtin/notes.c: it's used to detect if a note is being merged in
   another worktree

3) in branch.c, the function die_if_checked_out() is actually used by
   "git checkout" and "git worktree add" to see if a branch is already
   checked out elsewhere and refuse the operation.

In cases 1 and 3, if a rebase is ongoing, "HEAD" will be in detached
mode, find_shared_symref() fails to detect it and declares "no branch is
checked out here", which is not really what we want.

This patch tightens the test. If the given symref is "HEAD", we try to
detect if rebase is ongoing. If so return the branch being rebased. This
makes checkout and branch delete operations safer because you can't
checkout a branch being rebased in another place, or delete it.

Special case for checkout. If the current branch is being rebased,
git-rebase.sh may use "git checkout" to abort and return back to the
original branch. The updated test in find_shared_symref() will prevent
that and "git rebase --abort" will fail as a result.
find_shared_symref() and die_if_checked_out() have to learn a new
option ignore_current_worktree to loosen the test a bit.

df714f81a7 check_filename: tighten dwim-wildcard ambiguity
When specifying both revisions and pathnames, we allow
"<rev> -- <pathspec>" to be spelled without the "--" as long
as it is not ambiguous. The original logic was something
like:

  1. Resolve each item with get_sha1(). If successful,
     we know it can be a <rev>. Verify that it _isn't_ a
     filename, using verify_non_filename(), and complain of
     ambiguity otherwise.

  2. If get_sha1() didn't succeed, make sure that it _is_
     a file, using verify_filename(). If not, complain
     that it is neither a <rev> nor a <pathspec>.

Both verify_filename() and verify_non_filename() rely on
check_filename(), which definitely said "yes, this is a
file" or "no, it is not" using lstat().

Commit 28fcc0b (pathspec: avoid the need of "--" when
wildcard is used, 2015-05-02) introduced a convenience
feature: check_filename() will consider anything with
wildcard meta-characters as a possible filename, without
even checking the filesystem.

This works well for case 2. For such a wildcard, we would
previously have died and said "it is neither". Post-28fcc0b,
we assume it's a pathspec and proceed.

But it makes some instances of case 1 worse. We may have an
extended sha1 expression that contains meta-characters
(e.g., "HEAD^{/foo.*bar}"), and we now complain that it's
also a filename, due to the wildcard characters (even though
that wildcard would not match anything in the filesystem).

One solution would be to actually expand the pathname and
see if it matches anything on the filesystem. But that's
potentially expensive, and we do not have to be so rigorous
for this DWIM magic (if you want rigor, use "--").

Instead, we can just use different rules for cases 1 and 2.
When we know something is a rev, we will complain only if it
meets a much higher standard for "this is also a file";
namely that it actually exists in the filesystem. Case 2
remains the same: we use the looser "it could be a filename"
standard introduced by 28fcc0b.

We can accomplish this by pulling the wildcard logic out of
check_filename() and putting it into verify_filename(). Its
partner verify_non_filename() does not need a change, since
check_filename() goes back to implementing the "higher
standard".

Besides these two callers of check_filename(), there is one
other: git-checkout does a similar DWIM itself. It hits this
code path only after get_sha1() has returned failure, making
it case 2, which gets the special wildcard treatment.

Note that we drop the tests in t2019 in favor of a more
complete set in t6133. t2019 was not the right place for
them (it's about refname ambiguity, not dwim parsing
ambiguity), and the second test explicitly checked for the
opposite result of the case we are fixing here (which didn't
really make any sense; as shown by the test_must_fail in the
test, it would only serve to annoy people).

abd0cd3a30 refs: new public ref function: safe_create_reflog
The safe_create_reflog function creates a reflog, if it does not
already exist.

The log_ref_setup function becomes private and gains a force_create
parameter to force the creation of a reflog even if log_all_ref_updates
is false or the refname is not one of the special refnames.

The new parameter also reduces the need to store, modify, and restore
the log_all_ref_updates global before reflog creation.

In a moment, we will use this to add reflog creation commands to
git-reflog.

a4c653dfcd refs.c: add err arguments to reflog functions
Add an err argument to log_ref_setup that can explain the reason
for a failure. This then eliminates the need to manage errno through
this function since we can just add strerror(errno) to the err string
when meaningful. No callers relied on errno from this function for
anything else than the error message.

Also add err arguments to private functions write_ref_to_lockfile,
log_ref_write_1, commit_ref_update. This again eliminates the need to
manage errno in these functions.

Some error messages are slightly reordered.

272be14a85 checkout: drop intimate knowledge of newly created worktree
Now that git-worktree no longer relies upon git-checkout for new branch
creation, new worktree HEAD set up, or initial worktree population,
git-checkout no longer needs intimate knowledge that it may be operating
in a newly created worktree. Therefore, drop 'new_worktree_mode' and the
private GIT_CHECKOUT_NEW_WORKTREE environment variable by which
git-worktree communicated to git-checkout that it was being invoked to
manipulate a new worktree.

This reverts the remaining changes to checkout.c by 529fef2 (checkout:
support checking out into a new working directory, 2014-11-30).

ed89f84b3c branch: publish die_if_checked_out()
git-worktree currently conflates new branch creation, setting of HEAD in
the new wortkree, and worktree population into a single sub-invocation
of git-checkout. However, these operations will eventually be separated,
and git-worktree itself will need to be able to detect if the branch is
already checked out elsewhere, rather than relying upon git-branch to
make this determination, so publish die_if_checked_out().

746bbdc64f checkout: teach check_linked_checkout() about symbolic link HEAD
check_linked_checkout() only understands symref-style HEAD (i.e. "ref:
refs/heads/master"), however, HEAD may also be a an actual symbolic link
(on platforms which support it). To accurately detect if a branch is
checked out elsewhere, it needs to handle symbolic link HEAD, as well.

33aef83666 checkout: check_linked_checkout: simplify symref parsing
check_linked_checkout() only understands symref-style HEAD (i.e. "ref:
refs/heads/master"), however, HEAD may also be a an actual symbolic link
(on platforms which support it), thus it will need to check that style
HEAD, as well (via readlink()). As a preparatory step, simplify parsing
of symref-style HEAD so the actual branch check can be re-used easily
for symbolic links (in an upcoming patch).

39e69e1519 checkout: check_linked_checkout: improve "already checked out" aesthetic
When check_linked_checkout() discovers that the branch is already
checked out elsewhere, it emits the diagnostic:

    'blorp' is already checked out at '/some/path/.git'

which is misleading since "checked out at" implies the working tree, but
".git" is the location of the repository administrative files. Fix by
dropping ".git" from the message.

4341460d92 checkout: generalize die_if_checked_out() branch name argument
The plan is to publish die_if_checked_out() so that callers other than
git-checkout can take advantage of it, however, those callers won't have
access to git-checkout's "struct branch_info". Therefore, change it to
accept the full name of the branch as a simple string instead.

While here, also give the argument a more meaningful name ("branch"
instead of "new").

aaad2c948f checkout: improve die_if_checked_out() robustness
die_if_checked_out() is intended to check if the branch about to be
checked out is already checked out either in the main worktree or in a
linked worktree. However, if .git/worktrees directory does not exist,
then it never bothers checking the main worktree, even though the
specified branch might indeed be checked out there, which is fragile
behavior.

This hasn't been a problem in practice since the current implementation
of "git worktree add" (and, earlier, "git checkout --to") always creates
.git/worktrees before die_if_checked_out() is called by the child "git
checkout" invocation which populates the new worktree.

However, git-worktree will eventually want to call die_if_checked_out()
itself rather than only doing so indirectly as a side-effect of invoking
git-checkout, and reliance upon order of operations (creating
.git/worktrees before checking if a branch is already checked out) is
fragile. As a general function, callers should not be expected to abide
by this undocumented and unwarranted restriction. Therefore, make
die_if_checked_out() more robust by checking the main worktree whether
.git/worktrees exists or not.

While here, also move a comment explaining why die_if_checked_out()'s
helper parses HEAD manually. Such information resides more naturally
with the helper itself rather than at its first point of call.

e13d37094e checkout: name check_linked_checkouts() more meaningfully
check_linked_checkouts() doesn't just "check" linked checkouts for
"something"; specifically, it aborts the operation if the branch about
to be checked out is already checked out elsewhere. Therefore, rename it
to die_if_checked_out() to give a better indication of its function.
The more meaningful name will be particularly important when this
function is later published for use by other callers.

c265c533cf checkout: avoid resolving HEAD unnecessarily
When --ignore-other-worktree is specified, we unconditionally skip the
check to see if the requested branch is already checked out in a linked
worktree. Since we know that we will be skipping that check, there is no
need to resolve HEAD in order to detect other conditions under which we
may skip the check.
