Failures within `for` and `while` loops can go unnoticed if not detected
and signaled manually since the loop itself does not abort when a
contained command fails, nor will a failure necessarily be detected when
the loop finishes since the loop returns the exit code of the last
command it ran on the final iteration, which may not be the command
which failed. Therefore, detect and signal failures manually within
loops using the idiom `|| return 1` (or `|| exit 1` within subshells).

t1400.190 sometimes fails or even hangs because of the way it uses
fifos. Our goal is to interactively read and write lines from
update-ref, so we have two fifos, in and out. We open a descriptor
connected to "in" and redirect output to that, so that update-ref does
not see EOF as it would if we opened and closed it for each "echo" call.
But we don't do the same for the output. This leads to a race where our
"read response <out" has not yet opened the fifo, but update-ref tries
to write to it and gets SIGPIPE. This can result in the test failing, or
worse, hanging as we wait forever for somebody to write to the pipe.
This is the same proble we fixed in 4783e7ea83 (t0008: avoid SIGPIPE
race condition on fifo, 2013-07-12), and we can fix it the same way, by
opening a second long-running descriptor.
Before this patch, running:
./t1400-update-ref.sh --run=1,190 --stress
failed or hung within a few dozen iterations. After it, I ran it for
several hundred without problems.

When executing git-update-ref(1) with the `--stdin` flag, then the user
can queue updates and, since e48cf33b61 (update-ref: implement
interactive transaction handling, 2020-04-02), interactively drive the
transaction's state via a set of transactional verbs. This interactivity
is somewhat broken though: while the caller can use these verbs to drive
the transaction's state, the status messages which confirm that a verb
has been processed is not flushed. The caller may thus be left hanging
waiting for the acknowledgement.
Fix the bug by flushing stdout after writing the status update. Add a
test which catches this bug.

When deleting a packed ref via 'update-ref -d', a lockfile is made in
the directory that would contain the loose copy of that ref, creating
any directories in the ref's path that do not exist. When the
transaction completes, the lockfile is deleted, but any empty parent
directories made when creating the lockfile are left in place. These
empty directories are not removed by 'pack-refs' or other housekeeping
tasks and will accumulate over time.
When deleting a loose ref, we remove all empty parent directories at the
end of the transaction.
This commit applies the parent directory cleanup logic used when
deleting loose refs to packed refs as well.

We introduced the `PREPARE_FOR_MAIN_BRANCH` prereq for the sole purpose
of allowing us to perform the non-trivial adjustments regarding the
`master` -> `main` rename before the automatable ones.
Now that the transition is almost complete, we can stop using it in most
instances. The only two exceptions are t5526 and t9902: at the time of
writing, there are other patches in flight that touch these test
scripts, therefore their transition to `main` is postponed to a later
date.

Note that t5533 contains a variation of the name `master` (`naster`)
that we rename here, too.
This allows us to define `GIT_TEST_DEFAULT_INITIAL_BRANCH_NAME=main`
for those tests.

In addition to the manual adjustment to let the `linux-gcc` CI job run
the test suite with `master` and then with `main`, this patch makes sure
that GIT_TEST_DEFAULT_INITIAL_BRANCH_NAME is set in all test scripts
that currently rely on the initial branch name being `master by default.
To determine which test scripts to mark up, the first step was to
force-set the default branch name to `master` in
- all test scripts that contain the keyword `master`,
- t4211, which expects `t/t4211/history.export` with a hard-coded ref to
initialize the default branch,
- t5560 because it sources `t/t556x_common` which uses `master`,
- t8002 and t8012 because both source `t/annotate-tests.sh` which also
uses `master`)
This trick was performed by this command:
$ sed -i '/^ *\. \.\/\(test-lib\|lib-\(bash\|cvs\|git-svn\)\|gitweb-lib\)\.sh$/i\
GIT_TEST_DEFAULT_INITIAL_BRANCH_NAME=master\
export GIT_TEST_DEFAULT_INITIAL_BRANCH_NAME\
' $(git grep -l master t/t[0-9]*.sh) \
t/t4211*.sh t/t5560*.sh t/t8002*.sh t/t8012*.sh
After that, careful, manual inspection revealed that some of the test
scripts containing the needle `master` do not actually rely on a
specific default branch name: either they mention `master` only in a
comment, or they initialize that branch specificially, or they do not
actually refer to the current default branch. Therefore, the
aforementioned modification was undone in those test scripts thusly:
$ git checkout HEAD -- \
t/t0027-auto-crlf.sh t/t0060-path-utils.sh \
t/t1011-read-tree-sparse-checkout.sh \

We excluded one set of test scripts in these commands, though: the range
of `git p4` tests. The reason? `git p4` stores the (foreign) remote
branch in the branch called `p4/master`, which is obviously not the
default branch. Manual analysis revealed that only five of these tests
actually require a specific default branch name to pass; They were
modified thusly:
$ sed -i '/^ *\. \.\/lib-git-p4\.sh$/i\
GIT_TEST_DEFAULT_INITIAL_BRANCH_NAME=master\
export GIT_TEST_DEFAULT_INITIAL_BRANCH_NAME\

It is currently possible to write multiple "start" commands into
git-update-ref(1) for a single session, but none of them except for the
first one actually have any effect.
Using such nested "start"s may eventually have a sensible effect. One
may imagine that it restarts the current transaction, effectively
emptying it and creating a new one. It may also allow for creation of
nested transactions. But currently, none of these are implemented.
Silently ignoring this misuse is making it hard to iterate in the future
if "start" is ever going to have meaningful semantics in such a context.

The testcase t1400 exercises the git-update-ref(1) utility. To do so,
many tests directly read and write references via the filesystem,
assuming that we always use loose and/or packed references. While this
is true now, it'll change with the introduction of the reftable backend.
Convert those tests to use git-update-ref(1) and git-show-ref(1) where
possible. Furthermore, two tests are converted to not delete HEAD
anymore, as this results in a broken repository. They've instead been
updated to create a non-mandatory symbolic reference and delete that
one instead.
Some tests remain which exercise behaviour with broken references, which
cannot currently be converted to use regular git tooling.

Further preliminary change to refs API.
* hn/reftable-prep-part-2:
Make HEAD a PSEUDOREF rather than PER_WORKTREE.
Modify pseudo refs through ref backend storage
t1400: use git rev-parse for testing PSEUDOREF existence
In the test scripts, the recommended style is, e.g.:
test_expect_success 'name' '
do-something somehow &&
do-some-more testing
'
When using this style, any single quote in the multi-line test section
is actually closing the lone single quotes that surround it.
It can be a non-issue in practice:
test_expect_success 'sed a little' '
sed -e 's/hi/lo/' in >out # "ok": no whitespace in s/hi/lo/
'
Or it can be a bug in the test, e.g., because variable interpolation
happens before the test even begins executing:
v=abc
test_expect_success 'variable interpolation' '
v=def &&
echo '"$v"' # abc
'
Change several such in-test single quotes to use double quotes instead
or, in a few cases, drop them altogether. These were identified using
some crude grepping. We're not fixing any test bugs here, but we're
hopefully making these tests slightly easier to grok and to maintain.
There are legitimate use cases for closing a quote and opening a new
one, e.g., both '\'' and '"'"' can be used to produce a literal single
quote. I'm not touching any of those here.

The previous behavior was introduced in commit 74ec19d4be
("pseudorefs: create and use pseudoref update and delete functions",
Jul 31, 2015), with the justification "alternate ref backends still
need to store pseudorefs in GIT_DIR".
Refs such as REBASE_HEAD are read through the ref backend. This can
only work consistently if they are written through the ref backend as
well. Tooling that works directly on files under .git should be
updated to use git commands to read refs instead.
The following behaviors change:
* Updates to pseudorefs (eg. ORIG_HEAD) with
core.logAllRefUpdates=always will create reflogs for the pseudoref.
* non-HEAD pseudoref symrefs are also dereferenced on deletion. Update
t1405 accordingly.

The git-update-ref(1) command can only handle queueing transactions
right now via its "--stdin" parameter, but there is no way for users to
handle the transaction itself in a more explicit way. E.g. in a
replicated scenario, one may imagine a coordinator that spawns
git-update-ref(1) for multiple repositories and only if all agree that
an update is possible will the coordinator send a commit. Such a
transactional session could look like
> start
< start: ok
> update refs/heads/master $OLD $NEW
> prepare
< prepare: ok
# All nodes have returned "ok"
> commit
< commit: ok
or
> start
< start: ok
> create refs/heads/master $OLD $NEW
> prepare
< fatal: cannot lock ref 'refs/heads/master': reference already exists
# On all other nodes:
> abort
< abort: ok
In order to allow for such transactional sessions, this commit
introduces four new commands for git-update-ref(1), which matches those
we have internally already with the exception of "start":
- start: start a new transaction
- prepare: prepare the transaction, that is try to lock all
references and verify their current value matches the
expected one
- commit: explicitly commit a session, that is update references to
match their new expected state
- abort: abort a session and roll back all changes
By design, git-update-ref(1) will commit as soon as standard input is
being closed. While fine in a non-transactional world, it is definitely
unexpected in a transactional world. Because of this, as soon as any of
the new transactional commands is used, the default will change to
aborting without an explicit "commit". To avoid a race between queueing
updates and the first "prepare" that starts a transaction, the "start"
command has been added to start an explicit transaction.
Add some tests to exercise this new functionality.

There are several error messages in get_oid() and its children that are
clearly intended for humans, but aren't marked for translation. E.g.:
$ git show :1:foo
fatal: Path 'foo' is in the index, but not at stage 1.
Did you mean ':0:foo'?
Let's mark these for translation. While we're at it, let's switch the
style to be more like our usual error messages: start with a lowercase
letter and omit a period at the end of the line.
This does mean that multi-line messages like the one above don't have
any punctuation between the two sentences. I solved that by adding a
"hint" marker like we'd see from advise(). So the result is:
$ git show :1:foo
fatal: path 'foo' is in the index, but not at stage 1

If passed both --no-deref and --stdin, update-ref would error out with a
general usage message that did not at all suggest these options were
incompatible. The manpage for update-ref did suggest through its
synopsis line that --no-deref and --stdin were incompatible, but it sadly
also incorrectly suggested that -d and --no-deref were incompatible. So
the help around the --no-deref option is buggy in a few ways.
The --stdin option did provide a different mechanism for avoiding
dereferencing symbolic-refs: adding a line reading
option no-deref
before every other directive in the input. (Technically, if the user
wants to do the extra work of first determining which refs they want to
update or delete are symbolic, then they only need to put the extra
"option no-deref" lines before the updates of those refs. But in some
cases, that's more work than just adding the "option no-deref" before
every other directive.)
It's easier to allow the user to just pass --no-deref along with --stdin
in order to tell update-ref that the user doesn't want any symbolic ref
to be dereferenced. It also makes the update-ref documentation simpler.
Implement that, and update the documentation to match.

If we fail to read the old ref, we immediately die. But a failure to
read would actually be a good thing if we have been given the zero oid.
With the zero oid, allow -- and even require -- the ref-reading to fail.
This implements the "make sure that the ref ... does not exist" part of
the documentation and fixes both failing tests from the previous commit.
Since we have a `strbuf err` for collecting errors, let's use it and
signal an error to the caller instead of dying hard.

I have not been able to find any tests around adding pseudorefs using
`git update-ref`. Add some as outlined in this table (original design by
Michael Haggerty; modified and extended by me):
Pre-update value | ref-update old OID | Expected result
-------------------|----------------------|----------------
missing | value | reject
missing | none given | accept
set | none given | accept
set | correct value | accept
set | wrong value | reject
missing | zero | accept *
set | zero | reject *
The tests marked with a * currently fail, despite git-update-ref(1)
claiming that it is possible to "specify 40 '0' or an empty string as
<oldvalue> to make sure that the ref you are creating does not exist."
These failing tests will be fixed in the next commit.
It is only natural to test deletion as well. Test deletion without an
old OID, with a correct one and with an incorrect one.

On cygwin (and MinGW), the 'ulimit' built-in bash command does not have
the desired effect of limiting the resources of new processes, at least
for the stack and file descriptors. However, it always returns success
and leads to several test prerequisites being erroneously set to true.
Add a check for cygwin and MinGW to the prerequisite expressions, using
a 'test_have_prereq !MINGW,!CYGWIN' clause, to guard against using ulimit.
This affects the prerequisite expressions for the ULIMIT_STACK_SIZE,
CMDLINE_LIMIT and ULIMIT_FILE_DESCRIPTORS prerequisites.

This test case redirects stdout and stderr to output files, but,
unlike the other cases of redirection in the t1400 tests, these files
are not examined downstream. Remove the redirection so that the
output is visible when running the tests verbosely.

A group of update-ref tests verifies that logs are created when either
the log file for the ref already exists or core.logAllRefUpdates is
"true". However, when the default for core.logAllRefUpdates was
changed in 0bee59186 (Enable reflogs by default in any repository with
a working directory., 2006-12-14), the setup for the tests was not
updated. As a result, the "logged by touch" tests would pass even if
the log file did not exist (i.e., if "--create-reflog" was removed
from the first "git update-ref" call).
Update the "logged by touch" tests to disable core.logAllRefUpdates
explicitly so that the behavior does not depend on the default value.
While we're here, update the "logged by config" tests to use
test_config() rather than setting core.logAllRefUpdates to "true"
outside of the tests.

"git update-ref -d" and other operations to delete references did
not leave any entry in HEAD's reflog when the reference being
deleted was the current branch. This is not a problem in practice
because you do not want to delete the branch you are currently on,
but caused renaming of the current branch to something else not to
be logged in a useful way.
* km/delete-ref-reflog-message:
branch: record creation of renamed branch in HEAD's log
rename_ref: replace empty message in HEAD's log
update-ref: pass reflog message to delete_ref()
delete_ref: accept a reflog message argument
Deletion of a branch "foo/bar" could remove .git/refs/heads/foo
once there no longer is any other branch whose name begins with
"foo/", but we didn't do so so far. Now we do.

files_transaction_commit(): clean up empty directories

The default behavior of update-ref to create reflogs differs in
repositories with worktree and bare ones. The existing tests cover only
the behavior of repositories with worktree.
This commit adds tests that assert the correct behavior in bare
repositories for update-ref. Two cases are covered:
- If core.logAllRefUpdates is not set, no reflogs should be created
- If core.logAllRefUpdates is true, reflogs should be created

When core.logallrefupdates is true, we only create a new reflog for refs
that are under certain well-known hierarchies. The reason is that we
know that some hierarchies (like refs/tags) are not meant to change, and
that unknown hierarchies might not want reflogs at all (e.g., a
hypothetical refs/foo might be meant to change often and drop old
history immediately).
However, sometimes it is useful to override this decision and simply log
for all refs, because the safety and audit trail is more important than
the performance implications of keeping the log around.
This patch introduces a new "always" mode for the core.logallrefupdates
option which will log updates to everything under refs/, regardless
where in the hierarchy it is (we still will not log things like
ORIG_HEAD and FETCH_HEAD, which are known to be transient).
