As an attempt to come up with a useful mechanism to ensure that
certain messages are left untranslated [*], we earlier wrote
GIT_TEST_GETTEXT_POISON off as a failed experiment.
But the output from the test helper was easier to use while
debugging failed tests, compared to the same test writtein with the
plain-vanilla "grep". Especially when a test that expects a certain
string to appear in the output (e.g. "this test must fail with this
message") fails, "grep message output" would just silently fail and
in a &&-chained sequence of commands, it is hard to tell which step
failed. test_i18ngrep explicitly said "we wanted to see a line that
match this pattern but did not see a hit in this file".
What we have as test_i18ngrep in our tree still retains this verbose
output (even though we got rid of the "poison" support). Let's
rename it to test_grep (because it is no longer about i18n at all)
and then make test_i18ngrep a thin wrapper around it. Existing
callers of test_i18ngrep can be mechanically rewritten to instead
use test_grep over time, but it does not have to be done in this
commit.
[Footnote]
* The idea was that human-facing messages are often translated, but
there are messages that should never be translated. We use
"grep" only for the latter kind of messages, and then run tests
in "poison" mode that spew garbage for translatable messages. If
such a test run fails, it means these messages tested with "grep"
were marked for translation by mistake. test_i18ngrep was to be
used for other messages that are to be translated, and was to
always "succeed" when runing under the "poison" mode.

"git rebase -i" with a series of squash/fixup, when one of the
steps stopped in conflicts and ended up getting skipped, did not
handle the accumulated commit log messages, which has been
corrected.
* pw/rebase-skip-commit-message-fix:
rebase --skip: fix commit message clean up when skipping squash
During a series of "fixup" and/or "squash" commands, the interactive
rebase accumulates a commit message from all the commits that are being
squashed together. If one of the commits has conflicts when it is picked
and the user chooses to skip that commit then we need to remove that
commit's message from accumulated messages. To do this 15ef69314d
(rebase --skip: clean up commit message after a failed fixup/squash,
2018-04-27) updated commit_staged_changes() to reset the accumulated
message to the commit message of HEAD (which does not contain the
message from the skipped commit) when the last command was "fixup" or
"squash" and there are no staged changes. Unfortunately the code to do
this contains two bugs.
(1) If parse_head() fails we pass an invalid pointer to
unuse_commit_buffer().
(2) The reconstructed message uses the entire commit buffer from HEAD
including the headers, rather than just the commit message.
The first issue is fixed by splitting up the "if" condition into several
statements each with its own error handling. The second issue is fixed
by finding the start of the commit message within the commit buffer
using find_commit_subject().
The existing test added by 15ef69314d is modified to show the effect of
this bug. The bug is triggered when skipping the first command in the
chain (as the test does before this commit) but the effect is hidden
because opts->current_fixup_count is set to zero which leads
update_squash_messages() to recreate the squash message file from
scratch overwriting the bad message created by
commit_staged_changes(). The test is also updated to explicitly check
the commit messages rather than relying on grep to ensure they do not
contain any stray commit headers.
To check the commit message the function test_commit_message() is moved
from t3437-rebase-fixup-options.sh to test-lib.sh. As the function is
now publicly available it is updated to provide better error detection
and avoid overwriting the commonly used files "actual" and "expect".
Support for reading the expected commit message from stdin is also
added.

Update 'do_git_config_sequence()' to read the worktree config from
'config.worktree' in 'opts->git_dir' rather than the gitdir of
'the_repository'.
The worktree config is loaded from the path returned by
'git_pathdup("config.worktree")', the 'config.worktree' relative to the
gitdir of 'the_repository'. If loading the config for a submodule, this path
is incorrect, since 'the_repository' is the superproject. 'opts->git_dir' is
the gitdir of the submodule being configured, so the config file in that
location should be read instead.
To ensure the use of 'opts->git_dir' is safe, require that 'opts->git_dir'
is set if-and-only-if 'opts->commondir' is set (rather than "only-if" as it
is now). In all current usage of 'config_options', these values are set
together, so the stricter check does not change any behavior.
Finally, add tests to 't3007-ls-files-recurse-submodules.sh' to verify the
corrected config is loaded. Use 'ls-files' to test this because, unlike some
other '--recurse-submodules' commands, 'ls-files' parses the config of the
submodule in the same process as the superproject (via 'show_submodule()' ->
'repo_read_index()' -> 'prepare_repo_settings()'). As a result,
'the_repository' points to the config of the superproject but the
commondir/gitdir in the config sequence will be that of the submodule,
providing the exact scenario needed to verify this patch.
The first test ('--recurse-submodules parses submodule repo config') checks
that the submodule's *repo* config is read when running 'ls-files' on the
superproject; this confirms already-working behavior, serving as a reference
for how worktree config parsing should behave. The second test
('--recurse-submodules parses submodule worktree config') tests the same
scenario as the previous but instead using the *worktree* config,
demonstrating the corrected behavior. The 'test_config' helper is extended
for this case so that it properly applies the '--worktree' option to the
configure/unconfigure operations it performs.
Note that, although the submodule worktree config is now parsed instead of
the superproject's, 'extensions.worktreeConfig' in the superproject still
controls whether or not the worktree config is enabled at all in the
submodule. This will be fixed in a later patch.

We have a small helper function called "verbose", with the idea that you
can write:
verbose foo
to get a message to stderr when the "foo" command fails, even if it does
not produce any output itself. This goes back to 8ad1652418 (t5304: use
helper to report failure of "test foo = bar", 2014-10-10). It does work,
but overall it has not been a big success for two reasons:
1. Test writers have to remember to put it there (and the resulting
test code is longer as a result).
2. It doesn't handle the opposite case (we expect "foo" to fail, but
it succeeds), leading to inconsistencies in tests (which you can
see in many hunks of this patch, e.g. ones involving "has_cr").
Most importantly, we added a136f6d8ff (test-lib.sh: support -x option
for shell-tracing, 2014-10-10) at the same time, and it does roughly the
same thing. The output is not quite as succinct as "verbose", and you
have to watch out for stray shell-traces ending up in stderr. But it
solves both of the problems above, and has clearly become the preferred
tool.
Let's consider the "verbose" function a failed experiment and remove the
last few callers (which are all many years old, and have been dwindling
as we remove them from scripts we touch for other reasons). It will be
one less thing for new test writers to see and wonder if they should be
using themselves.

Note that set_replace_editor() is changed to set $GIT_SEQUENCE_EDITOR

As documented in the bundle URI design doc in 2da14fad8f (docs:
document bundle URI standard, 2022-08-09), the 'creationToken' member of
a bundle URI allows a bundle provider to specify a total order on the
bundles.
Future changes will allow the Git client to understand these members and
modify its behavior around downloading the bundles in that order. In the
meantime, create tests that add creation tokens to the bundle list. For
now, the Git client correctly ignores these unknown keys.
Create a new test helper function, test_remote_https_urls, which filters
GIT_TRACE2_EVENT output to extract a list of URLs passed to
git-remote-https child processes. This can be used to verify the order
of these requests as we implement the creationToken heuristic. For now,
we need to sort the actual output since the current client does not have
a well-defined order that it applies to the bundles.

It can be helpful to check that a file format with a trailing hash has a
specific hash in the final bytes of a written file. This is made more
apparent by recent changes that allow skipping the hash algorithm and
writing a null hash at the end of the file instead.
Add a new test_trailing_hash helper and use it in t1600 to verify that
index.skipHash=true really does skip the hash computation, since
'git fsck' does not actually verify the hash. This confirms that when
the config is disabled explicitly in a super project but enabled in a
submodule, then the use of repo_config_get_bool() loads config from the
correct repository in the case of 'git add'. There are other cases where
istate->repo is NULL and thus this config is loaded instead from
the_repository, but that's due to many different code paths initializing
index_state structs in their own way.
Keep the 'git fsck' call to ensure that any potential future change to
check the index hash does not cause an error in this case.

Unlike other test helper functions, 'test_oid' doesn't terminate its
output with a LF, but, alas, the reason for this, if any, is not
mentioned in 2c02b110da (t: add test functions to translate
hash-related values, 2018-09-13)).
Now, in the vast majority of cases 'test_oid' is invoked in a command
substitution that is part of a heredoc or supplies an argument to a
command or the value to a variable, and the command substitution would
chop off any trailing LFs, so in these cases the lack or presence of a
trailing LF in its output doesn't matter. However:
- There appear to be only three cases where 'test_oid' is not
invoked in a command substitution:
$ git grep '\stest_oid ' -- ':/t/*.sh'
t0000-basic.sh: test_oid zero >actual &&
t0000-basic.sh: test_oid zero >actual &&
t0000-basic.sh: test_oid zero >actual &&
These are all in test cases checking that 'test_oid' actually
works, and that the size of its output matches the size of the
corresponding hash function with conditions like
test $(wc -c <actual) -eq 40
In these cases the lack of trailing LF does actually matter,
though they could be trivially updated to account for the presence
of a trailing LF.
- There are also a few cases where the lack of trailing LF in
'test_oid's output actually hurts, because tests need to compare
its output with LF terminated file contents, forcing developers to
invoke it as 'echo $(test_oid ...)' to append the missing LF:
$ git grep 'echo "\?$(test_oid ' -- ':/t/*.sh'
t1302-repo-version.sh: echo $(test_oid version) >expect &&
t1500-rev-parse.sh: echo "$(test_oid algo)" >expect &&
t4044-diff-index-unique-abbrev.sh: echo "$(test_oid val1)" > foo &&
t4044-diff-index-unique-abbrev.sh: echo "$(test_oid val2)" > foo &&
t5313-pack-bounds-checks.sh: echo $(test_oid oidfff) >file &&
And there is yet another similar case in an in-flight topic at:

Arguably we would be better off if 'test_oid' terminated its output
with a LF. So let's update 'test_oid' accordingly, update its tests
in t0000 to account for the extra character in those size tests, and
remove the now unnecessary 'echo $(...)' command substitutions around
'test_oid' invocations as well.

When Git's test suite uses `test_cmp`, it is not actually trying to
compare binary files as the name `cmp` would suggest to users familiar
with Unix' tools, but the tests instead verify that actual output
matches the expected text.
On Unix, `cmp` works well enough for Git's purposes because only Line
Feed characters are used as line endings. However, on Windows, while
most tools accept Line Feeds as line endings, many tools produce
Carriage Return + Line Feed line endings, including some of the tools
used by the test suite (which are therefore provided via Git for Windows
SDK). Therefore, `cmp` would frequently fail merely due to different
line endings.
To accommodate for that, the `mingw_test_cmp` function was introduced
into Git's test suite to perform a line-by-line comparison that ignores
line endings. This function is a Bash function that is only used on
Windows, everywhere else `cmp` is used.
This is a double whammy because `cmp` is fast, and `mingw_test_cmp` is
slow, even more so on Windows because it is a Bash script function, and
Bash scripts are known to run particularly slowly on Windows due to
Bash's need for the POSIX emulation layer provided by the MSYS2 runtime.
The commit message of 32ed3314c1 (t5351: avoid using `test_cmp` for
binary data, 2022-07-29) provides an illuminating account of the
consequences: On Windows, the platform on which Git could really use all
the help it can get to improve its performance, the time spent on one
entire test script was reduced from half an hour to less than half a
minute merely by avoiding a single call to `mingw_test_cmp` in but a
single test case.
Learning the lesson to avoid shell scripting wherever possible, the Git
for Windows project implemented a minimal replacement for
`mingw_test_cmp` in the form of a `test-tool` subcommand that parses the
input files line by line, ignoring line endings, and compares them.
Essentially the same thing as `mingw_test_cmp`, but implemented in
C instead of Bash. This solution served the Git for Windows project
well, over years.
However, when this solution was finally upstreamed, the conclusion was
reached that a change to use `git diff --no-index` instead of
`mingw_test_cmp` was more easily reviewed and hence should be used
instead.
The reason why this approach was not even considered in Git for Windows
is that in 2007, there was already a motion on the table to use Git's
own diff machinery to perform comparisons in Git's test suite, but it
was dismissed in https://lore.kernel.org/git/xmqqbkrpo9or.fsf@gitster.g/
as undesirable because tests might potentially succeed due to bugs in
the diff machinery when they should not succeed, and those bugs could
therefore hide regressions that the tests try to prevent.
By the time Git for Windows' `mingw-test-cmp` in C was finally
contributed to the Git mailing list, reviewers agreed that the diff
machinery had matured enough and should be used instead.
When the concern was raised that the diff machinery, due to its
complexity, would perform substantially worse than the test helper
originally implemented in the Git for Windows project, a test
demonstrated that these performance differences are well lost within the
100+ minutes it takes to run Git's test suite on Windows.

`test_path_is_missing` was introduced back in 2caf20c52b ("test-lib:
user-friendly alternatives to test [-d|-f|-e]", 2010-08-10). It took the
path that was supposed to be missing, as well as an optional "diagnosis"
that would be echoed if the path was found to be alive.
Commit 45a2686441 ("test-lib-functions: remove bug-inducing
"diagnostics" helper param", 2021-02-12) dropped this diagnostic
functionality from several `test_path_is_foo` helpers, but note how it
tweaked the README entry on `test_path_is_missing` without actually
adjusting its implementation.
Commit e7884b353b ("test-lib-functions: assert correct parameter count",
2021-02-12) then followed up by asserting that we get just a single
argument.
This history leaves us in a state where we assert that we have exactly
one argument, then go on to anyway check for arguments, echoing them
all. It's clear that we can simplify this code. We should also note that
we run `ls -ld "$1"`, so printing the filename a second time doesn't
really buy us anything. Thus, we can drop the whole `if` block as
redundant.

Define the logical elements of a "bundle list", data structure to
store them in-core, format to transfer them, and code to parse
them.
* ds/bundle-uri-3:
bundle-uri: suppress stderr from remote-https
bundle-uri: quiet failed unbundlings
bundle: add flags to verify_bundle()
bundle-uri: fetch a list of bundles
bundle: properly clear all revision flags
bundle-uri: limit recursion depth for bundle lists
bundle-uri: parse bundle list in config format
bundle-uri: unit test "key=value" parsing
bundle-uri: create "key=value" line parsing
bundle-uri: create base key-value pair parsing
bundle-uri: create bundle_list struct and helpers
bundle-uri: use plain string in find_temp_filename()
Some variables in 'test_commit' have names that are common enough that
it is very likely that test authors might use them in a test. If they do
so and use 'test_commit' between setting such a variable and using it,
the variable value from 'test_commit' will leak back into the test and
most likely break it.
Prevent that by marking all variables in 'test_commit' as 'local'. This
allow a subsequent commit to use a 'tag' variable.

Create a new 'test-tool bundle-uri' test helper. This helper will assist
in testing logic deep in the bundle URI feature.
This change introduces the 'parse-key-values' subcommand, which parses
an input file as a list of lines. These are fed into
bundle_uri_parse_line() to test how we construct a 'struct bundle_list'
from that data. The list is then output to stdout as if the key-value
pairs were a Git config file.
We use an input file instead of stdin because of a future change to
parse in config-file format that works better as an input file.

Extend SANITIZE=leak checking and declare more tests "currently leak-free".

test-lib: don't set GIT_EXIT_OK before calling test_atexit_handler
test-lib: use $1, not $@ in test_known_broken_{ok,failure}_
Remove the "test_external" function added in [1]. This arguably makes
the output of t9700-perl-git.sh and friends worse. But as we'll argue
below the trade-off is worth it, since "chaining" to another TAP
emitter in test-lib.sh is more trouble than it's worth.
The new output of t9700-perl-git.sh is now:
$ ./t9700-perl-git.sh
ok 1 - set up test repository
ok 2 - use t9700/test.pl to test Git.pm
# passed all 2 test(s)
1..2
Whereas before this change it would be:
$ ./t9700-perl-git.sh
ok 1 - set up test repository
# run 1: Perl API (perl /home/avar/g/git/t/t9700/test.pl)
ok 2 - use Git;
[... omitting tests 3..46 from t/t9700/test.pl ...]
ok 47 - unquote escape sequences
1..47
# test_external test Perl API was ok
# test_external_without_stderr test no stderr: Perl API was ok
At the time of its addition supporting "test_external" was easy, but
when test-lib.sh itself started to emit TAP in [2] we needed to make
everything surrounding the emission of the plan consider
"test_external". I added that support in [2] so that we could run:
prove ./t9700-perl-git.sh :: -v
But since then in [3] the door has been closed on combining
$HARNESS_ACTIVE and -v, we'll now just die:
$ prove ./t9700-perl-git.sh :: -v
Bailout called. Further testing stopped: verbose mode forbidden under TAP harness; try --verbose-log
FAILED--Further testing stopped: verbose mode forbidden under TAP harness; try --verbose-log
So the only use of this has been that *if* we had failure in one of
these tests we could e.g. in CI see which test failed based on the
test number. Now we'll need to look at the full verbose logs to get
that same information.
I think this trade-off is acceptable given the reduction in
complexity, and it brings these tests in line with other similar
tests, e.g. the reftable tests added in [4] will be condensed down to
just one test, which invokes the C helper:
$ ./t0032-reftable-unittest.sh
ok 1 - unittests
# passed all 1 test(s)
1..1
It would still be nice to have that ":: -v" form work again, it
never *really* worked, but even though we've had edge cases test
output screwing up the TAP it mostly worked between d998bd4ab6 and
[3], so we may have been overzealous in forbidding it outright.
I have local patches which I'm planning to submit sooner than later
that get us to that goal, and in a way that isn't buggy. In the
meantime getting rid of this special case makes hacking on this area
of test-lib.sh easier, as we'll do in subsequent commits.
The switch from "perl" to "$PERL_PATH" here is because "perl" is
defined as a shell function in the test suite, see a5bf824f3b (t:
prevent '-x' tracing from interfering with test helpers' stderr,
2018-02-25). On e.g. the OSX CI the "command perl"... will be part of
the emitted stderr.

The word "whitelist" has cultural implications that are not inclusive.
Thankfully, it is not difficult to reword and avoid its use.
Focus on changes in the test scripts, since most of the changes are in
comments and test names. The renamed test_allow_var helper is only used
once inside the widely-used test_proto helper.
