We previously modified 'git add' to refuse updating index entries
outside of the sparse-checkout cone. This is justified to prevent users
from accidentally getting into a confusing state when Git removes those
files from the working tree at some later point.
Unfortunately, this caused some workflows that were previously possible
to become impossible, especially around merge conflicts outside of the
sparse-checkout cone. These were documented in tests within t1092.
We now re-enable these workflows using a new '--sparse' option to 'git
add'. This allows users to signal "Yes, I do know what I'm doing with
these files," and accept the consequences of the files leaving the
worktree later.
We delay updating the advice message until implementing a similar option
in 'git rm' and 'git mv'.

When 'git add' adds a tracked file that is outside of the
sparse-checkout cone, it checks the SKIP_WORKTREE bit to see if the file
exists outside of the sparse-checkout cone. This is usually correct,
except in the case of a merge conflict outside of the cone.
Modify add_pathspec_matched_against_index() to be more careful about
paths by checking the sparse-checkout patterns in addition to the
SKIP_WORKTREE bit. This causes 'git add' to no longer allow files
outside of the cone that removed the SKIP_WORKTREE bit due to a merge
conflict.
With only this change, users will only be able to add the file after
adding the file to the sparse-checkout cone. A later change will allow
users to force adding even though the file is outside of the
sparse-checkout cone.

The add_files() method in builtin/add.c takes a set of untracked files
that are being added by the input pathspec and inserts them into the
index. If these files are outside of the sparse-checkout cone, then they
gain the SKIP_WORKTREE bit at some point. However, this was not checked
before inserting into the index, so these files are added even though we
want to avoid modifying the index outside of the sparse-checkout cone.
Add a check within add_files() for these files and write the advice
about files outside of the sparse-checkout cone.
This behavior change modifies some existing tests within t1092. These
tests intended to document how a user could interact with the existing
behavior in place. Many of these tests need to be marked as expecting
failure. A future change will allow these tests to pass by adding a flag
to 'git add' that allows users to modify index entries outside of the
sparse-checkout cone.
The 'submodule handling' test is intended to document what happens to
directories that contain a submodule when the sparse index is enabled.
It is not trying to say that users should be able to add submodules
outside of the sparse-checkout cone, so that test can be modified to
avoid that operation.

In cone mode, the sparse-index code path learned to remove ignored
files (like build artifacts) outside the sparse cone, allowing the
entire directory outside the sparse cone to be removed, which is

advice: move advice.graftFileDeprecated squashing to commit.[ch]
advice: remove use of global advice_add_embedded_repo
advice: remove read uses of most global `advice_` variables
advice: add enum variants for missing advice variables
As we integrate the sparse index into more builtins, we occasionally
need to check the sparse-checkout patterns to see if a path is within
the sparse-checkout cone. Create some helper methods that help
initialize the patterns and check for pattern matching to make this
easier.
The existing callers of commands like get_sparse_checkout_patterns() use
a custom 'struct pattern_list' that is not necessarily the one in the
'struct index_state', so there are not many previous uses that could
adopt these helpers. There are just two in builtin/add.c and
sparse-index.c that can use path_in_sparse_checkout().
We add a path_in_cone_mode_sparse_checkout() as well that will only
return false if the path is outside of the sparse-checkout definition
_and_ the sparse-checkout patterns are in cone mode.

The --renormalize option updates the EOL conversions for the tracked

SKIP_WORKTREE bit, so it will continue to do so with a sparse index
because the sparse directory entries also have this bit set.

Since b243012 (refresh_index(): add flag to ignore SKIP_WORKTREE
entries, 2021-04-08), 'git add --refresh <path>' will output a warning
message when the path is outside the sparse-checkout definition. The
implementation of this warning happened in parallel with the
sparse-index work to add ensure_full_index() calls throughout the
codebase.
Update this loop to have the proper logic that checks to see if the
pathspec is outside the sparse-checkout definition. This avoids the need
to expand the sparse directory entry and determine if the path is
tracked, untracked, or ignored. We simply avoid updating the stat()
information because there isn't even an entry that matches the path!

Disable command_requires_full_index for 'git add'. This does not require
any additional removals of ensure_full_index(). The main reason is that
'git add' discovers changes based on the pathspec and the worktree
itself. These are then inserted into the index directly, and calls to
index_name_pos() or index_file_exists() already call expand_to_path() at
the appropriate time to support a sparse-index.
Add a test to check that 'git add -A' and 'git add <file>' does not
expand the index at all, as long as <file> is not within a sparse
directory. This does not help the global 'git add .' case.
We can measure the improvement using p2000-sparse-operations.sh with
these results:
Test HEAD~1 HEAD
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2000.6: git add -A (full-index-v3) 0.35(0.30+0.05) 0.37(0.29+0.06) +5.7%
2000.7: git add -A (full-index-v4) 0.31(0.26+0.06) 0.33(0.27+0.06) +6.5%
2000.8: git add -A (sparse-index-v3) 0.57(0.53+0.07) 0.05(0.04+0.08) -91.2%
2000.9: git add -A (sparse-index-v4) 0.58(0.55+0.06) 0.05(0.05+0.06) -91.4%
While the 91% improvement seems impressive, it's important to recognize
that previously we had significant overhead for expanding the
sparse-index. Comparing to the full index case, 'git add -A' goes from
0.37s to 0.05s, which is "only" an 86% improvement.
This modification to 'git add' creates some behavior change depending on
the use of a sparse index. We modify a test in t1092 to demonstrate
these changes which will be remedied in future changes.

If `add` encounters an error while applying the --chmod changes, it
prints a message to stderr, but exits with a success code. This might
have been an oversight, as the command does exit with a non-zero code in
other situations where it cannot (or refuses to) update all of the
requested paths (e.g. when some of the given paths are ignored). So make
the exit behavior more consistent by also propagating --chmod errors to
the exit status.
Note: the test "all statuses changed in folder if . is given" uses paths
added by previous test cases, some of which might be symbolic links.
Because `git add --chmod` will now fail with such paths, this test would
depend on whether all the previous tests were executed, or only some
of them. Avoid that by running the test on a fresh repo with only
regular files.

The dir structure seemed to have a number of leaks and problems around
it. First I noticed that parent_hashmap and recursive_hashmap were
being leaked (though Peff noticed and submitted fixes before me). Then
I noticed in the previous commit that clear_directory() was only taking
responsibility for a subset of fields within dir_struct, despite the
fact that entries[] and ignored[] we allocated internally to dir.c.
That, of course, resulted in many callers either leaking or haphazardly
trying to free these arrays and their contents.
Digging further, I found that despite the pretty clear documentation
near the top of dir.h that folks were supposed to call clear_directory()
when the user no longer needed the dir_struct, there were four callers
that didn't bother doing that at all. However, two of them clearly
thought about leaks since they had an UNLEAK(dir) directive, which to me
suggests that the method to free the data was too unclear. I suspect
the non-obviousness of the API and its holes led folks to avoid it,
which then snowballed into further problems with the entries[],
ignored[], parent_hashmap, and recursive_hashmap problems.
Rename clear_directory() to dir_clear() to be more in line with other
data structures in git, and introduce a dir_init() to handle the
suggested memsetting of dir_struct to all zeroes. I hope that a name
like "dir_clear()" is more clear, and that the presence of dir_init()
will provide a hint to those looking at the code that they need to look
for either a dir_clear() or a dir_free() and lead them to find
dir_clear().

also the latter commands, let's abstract away what is "stage" specific
into a dedicated data structure describing the differences between the
patch modes.
Finally, please note that the Perl version tries to make sure that the
diffs are only generated for the modified files. This is not actually
necessary, as the calls to Git's diff machinery already perform that
work, and perform it well. This makes it unnecessary to port the
`FILTER` field of the `%patch_modes` struct, as well as the
`get_diff_reference()` function.

In the previous steps, we re-implemented the main loop of `git add -i`
in C, and most of the commands.
Notably, we left out the actual functionality of `patch`, as the
relevant code makes up more than half of `git-add--interactive.perl`,
and is actually pretty independent of the rest of the commands.
With this commit, we start to tackle that `patch` part. For better
separation of concerns, we keep the code in a separate file,
`add-patch.c`. The new code is still guarded behind the
`add.interactive.useBuiltin` config setting, and for the moment,
it can only be called via `git add -p`.
The actual functionality follows the original implementation of
5cde71d64a (git-add --interactive, 2006-12-10), but not too closely
(for example, we use string offsets rather than copying strings around,
and after seeing whether the `k` and `j` commands are applicable, in the
C version we remember which previous/next hunk was undecided, and use it
rather than looking again when the user asked to jump).
As a further deviation from that commit, We also use a comma instead of
a slash to separate the available commands in the prompt, as the current
version of the Perl script does this, and we also add a line about the
question mark ("print help") to the help text.
While it is tempting to use this conversion of `git add -p` as an excuse
to work on `apply_all_patches()` so that it does _not_ want to read a
file from `stdin` or from a file, but accepts, say, an `strbuf` instead,
we will refrain from this particular rabbit hole at this stage.

Decisions taken for simplicity:
1) For now, `--pathspec-from-file` is declared incompatible with
`--interactive/--patch/--edit`, even when <file> is not `stdin`.
Such use case it not really expected. Also, it would require changes
to `interactive_add()` and `edit_patch()`.
2) It is not allowed to pass pathspec in both args and file.
