"git merge $signed_tag" started to drop the tag message from the
default merge message it uses by accident, which has been corrected.
* fs/ssh-signing-key-lifetime:
fmt-merge-msg: prevent use-after-free with signed tags
When merging a signed tag, fmt_merge_msg_sigs() is responsible for
populating the body of the merge message with the names of the signed
tags, their signatures, and the validity of those signatures.
In 02769437e1 (ssh signing: use sigc struct to pass payload,
2021-12-09), check_signature() was taught to pass the object payload via
the sigc struct instead of passing the payload buffer separately.
In effect, 02769437e1 causes buf, and sigc.payload to point at the same
region in memory. This causes a problem for fmt_tag_signature(), which
wants to read from this location, since it is freed beforehand by
signature_check_clear() (which frees it via sigc's `payload` member).
That makes the subsequent use in fmt_tag_signature() a use-after-free.
As a result, merge messages did not contain the body of any signed tags.
Luckily, they tend not to contain garbage, either, since the result of
strstr()-ing the object buffer in fmt_tag_signature() is guarded:
const char *tag_body = strstr(buf, "\n\n");
if (tag_body) {
tag_body += 2;
strbuf_add(tagbuf, tag_body, buf + len - tag_body);
}
Unfortunately, the tests in t6200 did not catch this at the time because
they do not search for the body of signed tags in fmt-merge-msg's
output.
Resolve this by waiting to call signature_check_clear() until after its
contents can be safely discarded. Harden ourselves against any future
regressions in this area by making sure we can find signed tag messages
in the output of fmt-merge-msg, too.

Many git commands that deal with working tree files try to remove a
directory that becomes empty (i.e. "git switch" from a branch that
has the directory to another branch that does not would attempt
remove all files in the directory and the directory itself). This

a subdirectory that becomes subject to removal due to the command.

The RCS keyword substitution in "git p4" used to be done assuming
that the contents are UTF-8 text, which can trigger decoding

git-p4: use with statements to close files after use in patchRCSKeywords
Even if some of these messages are not subject to gettext i18n, this
