When a user checks out the upstream branch of HEAD, the upstream branch
not being a local branch, and then runs "git status", like this:
git clone $URL client
cd client
git checkout @{u}
git status
no status is printed, but instead an error message:
fatal: HEAD does not point to a branch
(This error message when running "git branch" persists even after
checking out other things - it only stops after checking out a branch.)
This is because "git status" reads the reflog when determining the "HEAD
detached" message, and thus attempts to DWIM "@{u}", but that doesn't
work because HEAD no longer points to a branch.
Therefore, when calculating the status of a worktree, tolerate dangling
marks. This is done by adding an additional parameter to
dwim_ref() and repo_dwim_ref().

In preparation for a future patch adding a boolean parameter to
repo_interpret_branch_name(), which might be easily confused with an
existing unsigned int parameter, refactor repo_interpret_branch_name()
to take an option struct instead of the unsigned int parameter.
The static function interpret_branch_mark() is also updated to take the
option struct in preparation for that future patch, since it will also
make use of the to-be-introduced boolean parameter.

We've left the command line parsing of "git log :/a/b/" broken for
about a full year without anybody noticing, which has been
corrected.
* jc/missing-ref-store-fix:
repository: mark the "refs" pointer as private
sha1-name: do not assume that the ref store is initialized
The "refs" pointer in a struct repository starts life as NULL, but then
is lazily initialized when it is accessed via get_main_ref_store().
However, it's easy for calling code to forget this and access it
directly, leading to code which works _some_ of the time, but fails if
it is called before anybody else accesses the refs.
This was the cause of the bug fixed by 5ff4b920eb (sha1-name: do not
assume that the ref store is initialized, 2020-04-09). In order to
prevent similar bugs, let's more clearly mark the "refs" field as
private.
In addition to helping future code, the name change will help us audit
any existing direct uses. Besides get_main_ref_store() itself, it turns
out there is only one. But we know it's OK as it is on the line directly
after the fix from 5ff4b920eb, which will have initialized the pointer.
However it's still a good idea for it to model the proper use of the
accessing function, so we'll convert it.

c931ba4e (sha1-name.c: remove the_repo from handle_one_ref(),
2019-04-16) replaced the use of for_each_ref() helper, which works
with the main ref store of the default repository instance, with
refs_for_each_ref(), which can work on any ref store instance, by
assuming that the repository instance the function is given has its
ref store already initialized.
But it is possible that nobody has initialized it, in which case,
the code ends up dereferencing a NULL pointer.

We renamed the actual data structure in 910650d2f8 (Rename sha1_array to
oid_array, 2017-03-31), but the file is still called sha1-array. Besides
being slightly confusing, it makes it more annoying to grep for leftover
occurrences of "sha1" in various files, because the header is included
in so many places.
Let's complete the transition by renaming the source and header files
(and fixing up a few comment references).
I kept the "-" in the name, as that seems to be our style; cf.
fc1395f4a4 (sha1_file.c: rename to use dash in file name, 2018-04-10).
We also have oidmap.h and oidset.h without any punctuation, but those
are "struct oidmap" and "struct oidset" in the code. We _could_ make
this "oidarray" to match, but somehow it looks uglier to me because of
the length of "array" (plus it would be a very invasive patch for little
gain).

Our nth_packed_object_sha1() function returns NULL for error. So when we
wrapped it with nth_packed_object_oid(), we kept the same semantics. But
it's a bit funny, because the caller actually passes in an out
parameter, and the pointer we return is just that same struct they
passed to us (or NULL).
It's not too terrible, but it does make the interface a little
non-idiomatic. Let's switch to our usual "0 for success, negative for
error" return value. Most callers either don't check it, or are
trivially converted. The one that requires the biggest change is
actually improved, as we can ditch an extra aliased pointer variable.
Since we are changing the interface in a subtle way that the compiler
wouldn't catch, let's also change the name to catch any topics in
flight. We can drop the 'o' and make it nth_packed_object_id(). That's
slightly shorter, but also less redundant since the 'o' stands for
"object" already.

A low-level API function get_oid(), that accepts various ways to
name an object, used to issue end-user facing error messages
without l10n, which has been updated to be translatable.
* jk/get-oid-error-message-i18n:
sha1-name: mark get_oid() error messages for translation
t1506: drop space after redirection operator
t1400: avoid "test" string comparisons
We often skip an optional prefix in a string with a hardcoded
constant, e.g.
if (starts_with(string, "prefix"))
string += 6;
which is less error prone when written
skip_prefix(string, "prefix", &string);
Note that this changes a few error messages from "git reflog expire
--expire=nonsense.timestamp", which used to complain by saying
'--expire=nonsense.timestamp' is not a valid timestamp
but with this change, we say
'nonsense.timestamp' is not a valid timestamp
which is more technically correct (the string with --expire= as
a prefix obviously cannot be a valid timestamp, but the error is
about the part of the input without that prefix).

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
hint: Did you mean ':0:foo'?
A few tests had to be switched to test_i18ngrep and test_i18ncmp. Since
we were touching them anyway, I also simplified the ones using i18ngrep

When get_oid() and its helpers see an index name like ":.gitmodules",
they try to load the index on demand, like:
if (repo->index->cache)
repo_read_index(repo);
However, that misses the case when "repo->index" itself is NULL; we'll
segfault in the conditional.
This never happens with the_repository; there we always point its index
field to &the_index. But a submodule repository may have a NULL index
field until somebody calls repo_read_index().
This bug is triggered by t7411, but it was hard to notice because it's
in an expect_failure block. That test was added by 2b1257e463 (t/helper:
add test-submodule-nested-repo-config, 2018-10-25). Back then we had no
easy way to access the .gitmodules blob of a submodule repo, so we
expected (and got) an error message to that effect. Later, d9b8b8f896
(submodule-config.c: use repo_get_oid for reading .gitmodules,
2019-04-16) started looking in the correct repo, which is when we
started triggering the segfault.
With this fix, the test starts passing (once we clean it up as its
comment instructs).
Note that as far as I know, this bug could not be triggered outside of
the test suite. It requires resolving an index name in a submodule, and
all of the code paths (aside from test-tool) which do that either load
the index themselves, or always pass the_repository.
Ultimately it comes from 3a7a698e93 (sha1-name.c: remove implicit
dependency on the_index, 2019-01-12), which replaced a check of
"the_index.cache" with "repo->index->cache". So even if there is another
way to trigger it, it wouldn't affect any versions before then.

"git merge-recursive" backend recently learned a new heuristics to
infer file movement based on how other files in the same directory
moved. As this is inherently less robust heuristics than the one
based on the content similarity of the file itself (rather than
based on what its neighbours are doing), it sometimes gives an
outcome unexpected by the end users. This has been toned down to
leave the renamed paths in higher/conflicted stages in the index so
that the user can examine and confirm the result.

The multi-pack-index allows searching for objects across multiple
packs using one object list. The original design gains many of
these performance benefits by keeping the packs in the
multi-pack-index out of the packed_git list.
Unfortunately, this has one major drawback. If the multi-pack-index
covers thousands of packs, and a command loads many of those packs,
then we can hit the limit for open file descriptors. The
close_one_pack() method is used to limit this resource, but it
only looks at the packed_git list, and uses an LRU cache to prevent
thrashing.
Instead of complicating this close_one_pack() logic to include
direct references to the multi-pack-index, simply add the packs
opened by the multi-pack-index to the packed_git list. This
immediately solves the file-descriptor limit problem, but requires
some extra steps to avoid performance issues or other problems:
1. Create a multi_pack_index bit in the packed_git struct that is
one if and only if the pack was loaded from a multi-pack-index.
2. Skip packs with the multi_pack_index bit when doing object
lookups and abbreviations. These algorithms already check the
multi-pack-index before the packed_git struct. This has a very
small performance hit, as we need to walk more packed_git
structs. This is acceptable, since these operations run binary
search on the other packs, so this walk-and-ignore logic is
very fast by comparison.
3. When closing a multi-pack-index file, do not close its packs,
as those packs will be closed using close_all_packs(). In some
cases, such as 'git repack', we run 'close_midx()' without also
closing the packs, so we need to un-set the multi_pack_index bit
in those packs. This is necessary, and caught by running
t6501-freshen-objects.sh with GIT_TEST_MULTI_PACK_INDEX=1.
To manually test this change, I inserted trace2 logging into
close_pack_fd() and set pack_max_fds to 10, then ran 'git rev-list
--all --objects' on a copy of the Git repo with 300+ pack-files and
a multi-pack-index. The logs verified the packs are closed as
we read them beyond the file descriptor limit.
