`git worktree repair` knows how to repair the two-way links between the
repository and a worktree as long as a link in one or the other
direction is sound. For instance, if a linked worktree is moved (without
using `git worktree move`), repair is possible because the worktree
still knows the location of the repository even though the repository no
longer knows where the worktree is. Similarly, if the repository is
moved, repair is possible since the repository still knows the locations
of the worktrees even though the worktrees no longer know where the
repository is.
However, if both the repository and the worktrees are moved, then links
are severed in both directions, and no repair is possible. This is the
case even when the new worktree locations are specified as arguments to
`git worktree repair`. The reason for this limitation is twofold. First,
when `repair` consults the worktree's gitfile (/path/to/worktree/.git)
to determine the corresponding <repo>/worktrees/<id>/gitdir file to fix,
<repo> is the old path to the repository, thus it is unable to fix the
`gitdir` file at its new location since it doesn't know where it is.
Second, when `repair` consults <repo>/worktrees/<id>/gitdir to find the
location of the worktree's gitfile (/path/to/worktree/.git), the path
recorded in `gitdir` is the old location of the worktree's gitfile, thus
it is unable to repair the gitfile since it doesn't know where it is.
Fix these shortcomings by teaching `repair` to attempt to infer the new
location of the <repo>/worktrees/<id>/gitdir file when the location
recorded in the worktree's gitfile has become stale but the file is
otherwise well-formed. The inference is intentionally simple-minded.
For each worktree path specified as an argument, `git worktree repair`
manually reads the ".git" gitfile at that location and, if it is
well-formed, extracts the <id>. It then searches for a corresponding
<id> in <repo>/worktrees/ and, if found, concludes that there is a
reasonable match and updates <repo>/worktrees/<id>/gitdir to point at
the specified worktree path. In order for <repo> to be known, `git
worktree repair` must be run in the main worktree or bare repository.
`git worktree repair` first attempts to repair each incoming
/path/to/worktree/.git gitfile to point at the repository, and then
attempts to repair outgoing <repo>/worktrees/<id>/gitdir files to point
at the worktrees. This sequence was chosen arbitrarily when originally
implemented since the order of fixes is immaterial as long as one side
of the two-way link between the repository and a worktree is sound.
However, for this new repair technique to work, the order must be
reversed. This is because the new inference mechanism, when it is
successful, allows the outgoing <repo>/worktrees/<id>/gitdir file to be
repaired, thus fixing one side of the two-way link. Once that side is
fixed, the other side can be fixed by the existing repair mechanism,
hence the order of repairs is now significant.
Two safeguards are employed to avoid hijacking a worktree from a
different repository if the user accidentally specifies a foreign
worktree as an argument. The first, as described above, is that it
requires an <id> match between the repository and the worktree. That
itself is not foolproof for preventing hijack, so the second safeguard
is that the inference will only kick in if the worktree's
/path/to/worktree/.git gitfile does not point at a repository.

The 'clean' target is noticeably slow on cygwin, even for a 'do-nothing'
invocation of 'make clean'. For example, the second 'make clean' given
below:
$ make clean >/dev/null 2>&1
$ make clean
GITGUI_VERSION = 0.21.0.85.g3e5c
rm -rf git-gui lib/tclIndex po/*.msg
rm -rf GIT-VERSION-FILE GIT-GUI-VARS
$
has been timed at 1.934s on my laptop (an old core i5-4200M @ 2.50GHz,
8GB RAM, 1TB HDD).
Notice that the Makefile, as part of processing the 'clean' target, is
updating the 'GIT-VERSION-FILE' file. This is to ensure that the
$(GITGUI_VERSION) make variable is set, once that file had been included.
However, the 'clean' target does not use the $(GITGUI_VERSION) variable,
so this is wasted effort.
In order to eliminate such wasted effort, use the value of the internal
$(MAKECMDGOALS) variable to only '-include GIT-VERSION-FILE' when the
target is not 'clean'. (This drops the time down to 0.676s, on my laptop,
giving an improvement of 65.05%).

The aqua theme on Mac doesn't support changing the background color for labels
and frames [1]. Since the red, green, and yellow backgrounds of the labels for
unstaged and staged files and the diff pane are so important design elements of
git gui's main window, it's not acceptable for them to have grey backgrounds on
Mac.
To work around this, simply use non-themed widgets for all labels on Mac. This
is not a big problem because labels don't look extremely different between the
themed and non-themed versions. There are subtle differences, but they are not
as bad as having the wrong background color.

test_perf() runs each test in its own subshell which makes it difficult
to persist variables between tests. test_export() addresses this
shortcoming by grabbing the values of specified variables after a test
runs but before the subshell exits, and writes those values to a file
which is loaded into the environment of subsequent tests.
To grab the values to be persisted, test_export() pipes the output of
the shell's builtin `set` command through `sed` which plucks them out
using a regular expression along the lines of `s/^(var1|var2)/.../p`.
Unfortunately, though, this use of alternation is not portable. For
instance, BSD-lineage `sed` (including macOS `sed`) does not support it
in the default "basic regular expression" mode (BRE). It may be possible
to enable "extended regular expression" mode (ERE) in some cases with
`sed -E`, however, `-E` is neither portable nor part of POSIX.
Fortunately, alternation is unnecessary in this case and can easily be
avoided, so replace it with a series of simple expressions such as
`s/^var1/.../p;s/^var2/.../p`.
While at it, tighten the expressions so they match the variable names
exactly rather than matching prefixes (i.e. use `s/^var1=/.../p`).
If the requirements of test_export() become more complex in the future,
then an alternative would be to replace `sed` with `perl` which supports
alternation on all platforms, however, the simple elimination of
alternation via multiple `sed` expressions suffices for the present.

Remove this unreachable code. It was found by SunCC, it's found by a
non-fatal warning emitted by SunCC. It's one of the things it's more
vehement about than GCC & Clang.
It complains about a lot of other similarly unreachable code, e.g. a
BUG(...) without a "return", and a "return 0" after a long if/else,
both of whom have "return" statements. Those are also genuine
redundancies to a compiler, but arguably make the code a bit easier to
read & less fragile to maintain.
These return/break cases are just unnecessary however, and as seen
here the surrounding code just did a plain "return" without a "break"
already.

When 15b52a44 (compat-util: type-check parameters of no-op
replacement functions, 2020-08-06) turned a handful of no-op
C-preprocessor macros into static inline functions to give the
callers a better type checking for their parameters, it forgot
to return anything from the stubbed out setitimer() function,
even though the function was defined to return an int just like the
real thing.
Since the original C-preprocessor macro implementation was to just
turn the call to the function an empty statement, we know that the
existing callers do not check the return value from it, and it does
not matter what value we return. But it is safer to pretend that
the call succeeded by returning 0 than making it fail by returning -1
and clobbering errno with some value.

To give ample warning for users wishing to override Git's the fall-back
for an unconfigured `init.defaultBranch` (in case we decide to change it
in a future Git version), let's introduce some advice that is shown upon
`git init` when that value is not set.
Note: two test cases in Git's test suite want to verify that the
`stderr` output of `git init` is empty. It is now necessary to suppress
the advice, we now do that via the `init.defaultBranch` setting. While
not strictly necessary, we also set this to `false` in
`test_create_repo()`.

Not all code paths want to show that advice, though. In particular, the

via the `INIT_DB_QUIET` flag.
