As a library that only interacts with other primitives, strbuf should
not utilize the comment_line_char global variable within its
functions. Therefore, add an additional parameter for functions that use
comment_line_char and refactor callers to pass it in instead.
strbuf_stripspace() removes the skip_comments boolean and checks if
comment_line_char is a non-NUL character to determine whether to skip
comments or not.

We could further remove, git_FOO_config and replace calls to

Simplify the code that builds the arguments for the "read-tree"
invocation in reset_hard() and read_empty() to remove the "verbose"
parameter.
Before 172b6428d0 (do not overwrite untracked during merge from
unborn branch, 2010-11-14) there was a "reset_hard()" function that
would be called in two places, one of those passed a "verbose=1", the
other a "verbose=0".
After 172b6428d0 when read_empty() was split off from reset_hard()
both of these functions only had one caller. The "verbose" in
read_empty() would always be false, and the one in reset_hard() would
always be true.
There was never a good reason for the code to act this way, it
happened because the read_empty() function was a copy/pasted and
adjusted version of reset_hard().
Since we're no longer conditionally adding the "-v" parameter
here (and we'd only add it for "reset_hard()" we'll be able to move to
a simpler and safer run-command API in the subsequent commit.

After our loop through the selected strategies, we compare best_strategy

best_strategy sets it to use_strategies[i]->name requires a little bit
of extra checking to determine that at the time of setting, that's the
same as wt_strategy. Just setting best_strategy to wt_strategy makes it
a little easier to verify what the loop is doing, at least for this
reader.
Further, use_strategies[i]->name is used in a number of places, where we
could just use wt_strategy. The latter takes less time for this reader
to parse (one variable name instead of three), so just use wt_strategy
to make the code slightly faster for human readers to parse.

builtin/merge.c has a loop over the specified strategies, where if they
all fail with conflicts, it picks the one with the least number of
conflicts.
In the codepath that finds a successful merge, if an automatic commit
was wanted, the code breaks out of the above loop, which makes sense.
However, if the user requested there be no automatic commit, the loop
would continue. That seems weird; --no-commit should not affect the
choice of merge strategy, but the code as written makes one think it
does. However, since the loop itself embeds "!merge_was_ok" as a
condition on continuing to loop, it actually would also exit early if
--no-commit was specified, it just exited from a different location.
Restructure the code slightly to make it clear that the loop will
immediately exit whenever we find a merge strategy that is successful.

Previously, if the user:
* Had no local changes before starting the merge
* A merge strategy makes changes to the working tree/index but returns
with exit status 2
Then we'd call restore_state() to clean up the changes and either let
the next merge strategy run (if there is one), or exit telling the user
that no merge strategy could handle the merge. Unfortunately,
restore_state() did not clean up the changes as expected; that function
was a no-op if the stash was a null, and the stash would be null if
there were no local changes before starting the merge. So, instead of
"Rewinding the tree to pristine..." as the code claimed, restore_state()
would leave garbage around in the index and working tree (possibly
including conflicts) for either the next merge strategy or for the user
after aborting the merge. And in the case of aborting the merge, the
user would be unable to run "git merge --abort" to get rid of the
unintended leftover conflicts, because the merge control files were not
written as it was presumed that we had restored to a clean state
already.
Fix the main problem by making sure that restore_state() only skips the
stash application if the stash is null rather than skipping the whole
function.
However, there is a secondary problem -- since merge.c forks
subprocesses to do the cleanup, the in-memory index is left out-of-sync.
While there was a refresh_cache(REFRESH_QUIET) call that attempted to
correct that, that function would not handle cases where the previous
merge strategy added conflicted entries. We need to drop the index and
re-read it to handle such cases.
(Alternatively, we could stop forking subprocesses and instead call some
appropriate function to do the work which would update the in-memory
index automatically. For now, just do the simple fix.)
Also, add a testcase checking this, one for which the octopus strategy
fails on the first commit it attempts to merge, and thus which it
cannot handle at all and must completely bail on (as per the "exit 2"
code path of commit 98efc8f3d8 ("octopus: allow manual resolve on the
last round.", 2006-01-13)).

Merge strategies can:
* succeed with a clean merge
* succeed with a conflicted merge
* fail to handle the given type of merge
If one is thinking in terms of automatic mergeability, they would use
the word "fail" instead of "succeed" for the second bullet, but I am
focusing here on ability of the merge strategy to handle the given
inputs, not on whether the given inputs are mergeable. The third
category is about the merge strategy failing to know how to handle the
given data; examples include:
* Passing more than 2 branches to 'recursive' or 'ort'
* Passing 2 or fewer branches to 'octopus'
* Trying to do more complicated merges with 'resolve' (I believe
directory/file conflicts will cause it to bail.)
* Octopus running into a merge conflict for any branch OTHER than
the final one (see the "exit 2" codepath of commit 98efc8f3d8
("octopus: allow manual resolve on the last round.", 2006-01-13))
That final one is particularly interesting, because it shows that the
merge strategy can muck with the index and working tree, and THEN bail
and say "sorry, this strategy cannot handle this type of merge; use
something else".
Further, we do not currently expect the individual strategies to clean
up after themselves, but instead expect builtin/merge.c to do so. For
it to be able to, it needs to save the state before trying the merge
strategy so it can have something to restore to. Therefore, remove the
shortcut bypassing the save_state() call.
There is another bug on the restore_state() side of things, so no
testcase will be added until the next commit when we have addressed that
issue as well.

There are multiple issues at play here:
1) If `git merge` is invoked with staged changes, it should abort
without doing any merging, and the user's working tree and index
should be the same as before merge was invoked.
2) Merge strategies are responsible for enforcing the index == HEAD
requirement. (See 9822175d2b ("Ensure index matches head before
invoking merge machinery, round N", 2019-08-17) for some history
around this.)
3) Merge strategies can bail saying they are not an appropriate
handler for the merge in question (possibly allowing other
strategies to be used instead).
4) Merge strategies can make changes to the index and working tree,
and have no expectation to clean up after themselves, *even* if
they bail out and say they are not an appropriate handler for
the merge in question. (The `octopus` merge strategy does this,
for example.)
5) Because of (3) and (4), builtin/merge.c stashes state before
trying merge strategies and restores it afterward.
Unfortunately, if users had staged changes before calling `git merge`,
builtin/merge.c could do the following:
* stash the changes, in order to clean up after the strategies
* try all the merge strategies in turn, each of which report they
cannot function due to the index not matching HEAD
* restore the changes via "git stash apply"
But that last step would have the net effect of unstaging the user's
changes. Fix this by adding the "--index" option to "git stash apply".
While at it, also squelch the stash apply output; we already report
"Rewinding the tree to pristine..." and don't need a detailed `git
status` report afterwards. Also while at it, switch to using strvec
so folks don't have to count the arguments to ensure we avoided an
off-by-one error, and so it's easier to add additional arguments to
the command.

builtin/merge is setup to allow multiple strategies to be specified,
and it will find the "best" result and use it. This is defeated if
some of the merge strategies abort early when they cannot handle the
merge. Fix the logic that calls recursive and ort to not do such an
early abort, but instead return "2" or "unhandled" so that the next
strategy can try to handle the merge.
Coming up with a testcase for this is somewhat difficult, since
recursive and ort both handle nearly any two-headed merge (there is
a separate code path that checks for non-two-headed merges and
already returns "2" for them). So use a somewhat synthetic testcase
of having the index not match HEAD before the merge starts, since all
merge strategies will abort for that.

As noted in the last commit and the links therein (especially commit
9822175d2b ("Ensure index matches head before invoking merge machinery,
round N", 2019-08-17), we have had a very long history of problems with
failing to enforce the requirement that index matches HEAD when starting
a merge.
The "trivial merge" logic in builtin/merge.c is yet another such case
we previously missed. Add a check for it to ensure it aborts if the
index does not match HEAD, and add a testcase where this fix is needed.
Note that the fix here would also incidentally be an alternative fix
for the testcase added in the last patch, but the fix in the last patch
is still needed when multiple merge strategies are in use, so tweak the
testcase from the previous commit so that it continues to exercise the
codepath added in the last commit.
