There are two code paths that take a string and parse it to enum
untracked_status_type. Introduce a helper function and use it.
As these two places handle an error differently, add an additional
invalid value to the enum, and have the caller of the helper handle
the error condition, instead of dying or emitting error message from
the helper.

In 83c750acde (wt-status.*: better advice for git status added,
2012-06-05), git-status received new informative messages to describe
the ongoing work in a worktree.
These messages were enhanced in 0722c805d6 (status: show the branch name
if possible in in-progress info, 2013-02-03), to show, if possible, the
branch where the operation was initiated.
Since then, we show incorrect information when several operations are in
progress and one of them is bisect:
$ git checkout -b foo
$ GIT_SEQUENCE_EDITOR='echo break >' git rebase -i HEAD~
$ git checkout -b bar
$ git bisect start
$ git status
...
You are currently editing a commit while rebasing branch 'bar' on '...'.
You are currently bisecting, started from branch 'bar'.
...
Note that we erroneously say "while rebasing branch 'bar'" when we
should be referring to "foo".
This must have gone unnoticed for so long because it must be unusual to
start a bisection while another operation is in progress. And even less
usual to involve different branches.
It caught my attention reviewing a leak introduced in 8b87cfd000
(wt-status: move strbuf into read_and_strip_branch(), 2013-03-16).
A simple change to deal with this situation can be to record in struct
wt_status_state, the branch where the bisect starts separately from the
branch related to other operations.
Let's do it and so we'll be able to display correct information and
we'll avoid the leak as well.

'git status' began reporting a percentage of populated paths when
sparse-checkout is enabled in 051df3cf (wt-status: show sparse
checkout status as well, 2020-07-18). This percentage is incorrect when
the index has sparse directories. It would also be expensive to
calculate as we would need to parse trees to count the total number of
possible paths.
Avoid the expensive computation by simplifying the output to only report
that a sparse checkout exists, without the percentage.
This change is the reason we use 'git status --porcelain=v2' in
t1092-sparse-checkout-compatibility.sh. We don't want to ensure that
this message is equal across both modes, but instead just the important
information about staged, modified, and untracked files are compared.

Change the ref-filter sorting of detached HEAD to check the
FILTER_REFS_DETACHED_HEAD flag, instead of relying on the ref
description filled-in by get_head_description() to start with "(",
which in turn we expect to ASCII-sort before any other reference.
For context, we'd like the detached line to appear first at the start
of "git branch -l", e.g.:
$ git branch -l
* (HEAD detached at <hash>)
master
This doesn't change that, but improves on a fix made in
28438e84e0 (ref-filter: sort detached HEAD lines firstly, 2019-06-18)
and gives the Chinese translation the ability to use its preferred
punctuation marks again.
In Chinese the fullwidth versions of punctuation like "()" are
typically written as (U+FF08 fullwidth left parenthesis), (U+FF09
fullwidth right parenthesis) instead[1]. This form is used in both
po/zh_{CN,TW}.po in most cases where "()" is translated in a string.
Aside from that improvement to the Chinese translation, it also just
makes for cleaner code that we mark any special cases in the ref_array
we're sorting with flags and make the sort function aware of them,
instead of piggy-backing on the general-case of strcmp() doing the
right thing.
As seen in the amended tests this made reverse sorting a bit more
consistent. Before this we'd sometimes sort this message in the
middle, now it's consistently at the beginning or end, depending on
whether we're doing a normal or reverse sort. Having it at the end
doesn't make much sense either, but at least it behaves consistently
now. A follow-up commit will make this behavior under reverse sorting
even better.
I'm removing the "TRANSLATORS" comments that were in the old code
while I'm at it. Those were added in d4919bb288 (ref-filter: move
get_head_description() from branch.c, 2017-01-10). I think it's
obvious from context, string and translation memory in typical
translation tools that these are the same or similar string.

When we have a `struct wt_status_state`, we manually free its `branch`,
`onto` and `detached_from`, or sometimes just one or two of them.
Provide a function `wt_status_state_free_buffers()` which does the
freeing.
The callers are still aware of these fields, e.g., they check whether
`branch` was populated or not. But this way, they don't need to know
about *all* of them, and if `struct wt_status_state` gets more fields,
they will not need to learn to free them.
Users of `struct wt_status` (which contains a `wt_status_state`) already
have `wt_status_collect_free_buffers()` (corresponding to
`wt_status_collect()`) which we can also teach to use this new helper.
Finally, note that we're currently leaving dangling pointers behind.
Some callers work on a stack-allocated struct, where this is obviously
ok. But for the users of `run_status()` in builtin/commit.c, there are
ample opportunities for someone to mistakenly use those dangling
pointers. We seem to be ok for now, but it's a use-after-free waiting to
happen. Let's leave NULL-pointers behind instead.

In dcb500dc16 (cherry-pick/revert: advise using --skip, 2019-07-02),
`git commit` learned to suggest to run `git cherry-pick --skip` when
trying to cherry-pick an empty patch.
However, it was overlooked that there are more conditions than just a
`git cherry-pick` when this advice is printed (which originally
suggested the neutral `git reset`): the same can happen during a rebase.
Let's suggest the correct command, even during a rebase.
While at it, we adjust more places in `builtin/commit.c` that
incorrectly assumed that the presence of a `CHERRY_PICK_HEAD` meant that
surely this must be a `cherry-pick` in progress.
Note: we take pains to handle the situation when a user runs a `git
cherry-pick` _during_ a rebase. This is quite valid (e.g. in an `exec`
line in an interactive rebase). On the other hand, it is not possible to
run a rebase during a cherry-pick, meaning: if both `rebase-merge/` and
`sequencer/` exist or CHERRY_PICK_HEAD and REBASE_HEAD point to the same
commit , we still want to advise to use `git cherry-pick --skip`.

"git branch --list" learned to always output the detached HEAD as
the first item (when the HEAD is detached, of course), regardless
of the locale.
* md/sort-detached-head-first:
ref-filter: sort detached HEAD lines firstly
Before this patch, "git branch" would put "(HEAD detached...)" and "(no
branch, rebasing...)" lines before all the other branches *in most
cases* except for when using Chinese-language messages. zh_CN generally
uses a full-width "(" symbol (codepoint FF08) to match the full-width
proportions of Chinese characters, and the translated strings we had did
use them. This meant that the detached HEAD line would appear after all
local refs and even after the remote refs if there were any.
AFAIK, it is sometimes not jarring to see the half-width parenthesis in
"full-width" text as in the CJK languages, for instance when there are
no characters preceding or following the parenthesized text fragment. By
removing the parenthesis from the localizable text, we can share strings
with wt-status.c and remove a cautionary comment to translators.
Remove the ( from the localizable portion of messages so the sorting
happens properly regardless of locale.

Status variables were initialized in the collect phase and some

in the output phase, but over time some fields were added and output

A "struct wt_status_state" that was used in other codepaths turned out
to be useful in the "git status" output. This is not tied to "struct
wt_status", so filling in the collect phase was not consistently
followed.
Move the status state structure variables into the status state
structure and populate them in the collect functions.

After performing a merge that has conflicts git status will, by default,

Teach the status command more flexibility in how ignored files are
reported. Currently, the reporting of ignored files and untracked
files are linked. You cannot control how ignored files are reported
independently of how untracked files are reported (i.e. `all` vs
`normal`). This makes it impossible to show untracked files with the
`all` option, but show ignored files with the `normal` option.
This work 1) adds the ability to control the reporting of ignored
files independently of untracked files and 2) introduces the concept
of status reporting ignored paths that explicitly match an ignored
pattern. There are 2 benefits to these changes: 1) if a consumer needs
all untracked files but not all ignored files, there is a performance
benefit to not scanning all contents of an ignored directory and 2)
returning ignored files that explicitly match a path allow a consumer
to make more informed decisions about when a status result might be
stale.
This commit implements --ignored=matching with --untracked-files=all.
The following commit will implement --ignored=matching with
--untracked=files=normal.
As an example of where this flexibility could be useful is that our
application (Visual Studio) runs the status command and presents the
output. It shows all untracked files individually (e.g. using the
'--untracked-files==all' option), and would like to know about which
paths are ignored. It uses information about ignored paths to make
decisions about when the status result might have changed.
Additionally, many projects place build output into directories inside
a repository's working directory (e.g. in "bin/" and "obj/"
directories). Normal usage is to explicitly ignore these 2 directory
names in the .gitignore file (rather than or in addition to the *.obj
pattern).If an application could know that these directories are
explicitly ignored, it could infer that all contents are ignored as
well and make better informed decisions about files in these
directories. It could infer that any changes under these paths would
not affect the output of status. Additionally, there can be a
significant performance benefit by avoiding scanning through ignored
directories.
When status is set to report matching ignored files, it has the
following behavior. Ignored files and directories that explicitly
match an exclude pattern are reported. If an ignored directory matches
an exclude pattern, then the path of the directory is returned. If a
directory does not match an exclude pattern, but all of its contents
are ignored, then the contained files are reported instead of the
directory.

"git status" has long shown essentially the same message as "git
commit"; the message it gives while preparing for the root commit,
i.e. "Initial commit", was hard to understand for some new users.

(rather than the commit the user is preparing for, which is more in
line with the focus of "git commit").

status: contextually notify user about an initial commit
The existing message, "Initial commit", makes sense for the commit template
notifying users that it's their initial commit, but is confusing when
merely checking the status of a fresh repository (or orphan branch)
without having any commits yet.
Change the output of "status" to say "No commits yet" when "git
status" is run on a fresh repo (or orphan branch), while retaining the
current "Initial commit" message displayed in the template that's
displayed in the editor when the initial commit is being authored.
Correspondingly change the output of "short status" to "No commits yet
on " when "git status -sb" is run on a fresh repo (or orphan branch).
A few alternatives considered were,
* Waiting for initial commit
* Your current branch does not have any commits
* Current branch waiting for initial commit
The most succint one among the alternatives was chosen.

"git interpret-trailers" is unaware of the cut line, and assumes the

be seen with:
$ GIT_EDITOR='git interpret-trailers --in-place --trailer Acked-by:me' \
git commit --amend -v
Teach "git interpret-trailers" to notice the cut-line and ignore the
remainder of the input when looking for a place to add new trailer
block. This makes it consistent with how "git commit -v -s" inserts a
new Signed-off-by: line.
This can be done by the same logic as the existing helper function,
wt_status_truncate_message_at_cut_line(), uses, but it wants the caller
to pass a strbuf to it. Because the function ignore_non_trailer() used
by the command takes a <pointer, length> pair, not a strbuf, steal the
logic from wt_status_truncate_message_at_cut_line() to create a new
wt_status_locate_end() helper function that takes <pointer, length>
pair, and make ignore_non_trailer() call it to help "interpret-trailers".
Since there is only one caller of wt_status_truncate_message_at_cut_line()
in cmd_commit(), rewrite it to call wt_status_locate_end() helper instead

When using the '-v' option of "git commit" the diff added to the commit
message temporarily for editing is stripped off after the user exited the
editor by searching for "\ndiff --git " and truncating the commmit message
there if it is found.
But this approach has two problems:
- when the commit message itself contains a line starting with
"diff --git" it will be truncated there prematurely; and
- when the "diff.submodule" setting is set to "log", the diff may
start with "Submodule <hash1>..<hash2>", which will be left in
the commit message while it shouldn't.
Fix that by introducing a special scissor separator line starting with the
comment character ('#' or the core.commentChar config if set) followed by
two lines describing what it is for. The scissor line - which will not be
translated - is used to reliably detect the start of the diff so it can be
chopped off from the commit message, no matter what the user enters there.
Turn a known test failure fixed by this change into a successful test;
also add one for a diff starting with a submodule log and another one for
proper handling of the comment char.
