The standard format for referencing other commits within some projects
(such as git.git) is the reference format. This is described in
Documentation/SubmittingPatches as
If you want to reference a previous commit in the history of a stable
branch, use the format "abbreviated hash (subject, date)", like this:
....
Commit f86a374 (pack-bitmap.c: fix a memleak, 2015-03-30)
noticed that ...
....
Since this format is so commonly used, standardize it as a pretty
format.
The tests that are implemented essentially show that the format-string
does not change in response to various log options. This is useful
because, for future developers, it shows that we've considered the
limitations of the "canned format-string" approach and we are fine with
them.

In 2b9bd488ae ("completion: teach rebase to use __gitcomp_builtin",
2019-09-12), the completion script learned to complete rebase using
__gitcomp_builtin(). However, this resulted in `--onto=` being suggested
instead of `--onto `.
Before, when there was a space, we'd start a new word and, as a result,
fallback to __git_complete_refs() and `--onto` would be completed this
way. However, now we match the `--*` case which does not know how to
offer completions for refs.
Teach _git_rebase() to complete refs in the `--onto=` case so that we
fix this regression.

Unfortunately, since some args are passed through from cmd_archive() to
write_archive() (which calls parse_archive_args()), there's no way that a
`--git-completion-helper` arg can end up reaching parse_archive_args()
since the first call to parse_options() will end up calling exit(0). As
a result, we have to carry the options supported by write_archive() in
the hardcoded string.

A common scenario is if a user is working on a topic branch and they
wish to make some changes to intermediate commits or autosquash, they
would run something such as
git rebase -i --onto master... master
in order to preserve the merge base. This is useful when contributing a
patch series to the Git mailing list, one often starts on top of the
current 'master'. While developing the patches, 'master' is also
developed further and it is sometimes not the best idea to keep rebasing
on top of 'master', but to keep the base commit as-is.
In addition to this, a user wishing to test individual commits in a
topic branch without changing anything may run
git rebase -x ./test.sh master... master
Since rebasing onto the merge base of the branch and the upstream is
such a common case, introduce the --keep-base option as a shortcut.
This allows us to rewrite the above as
git rebase -i --keep-base master
and
git rebase -x ./test.sh --keep-base master
respectively.
Add tests to ensure --keep-base works correctly in the normal case and
fails when there are multiple merge bases, both in regular and
interactive mode. Also, test to make sure conflicting options cause
rebase to fail. While we're adding test cases, add a missing
set_fake_editor call to 'rebase -i --onto master...side'.
While we're documenting the --keep-base option, change an instance of
"merge-base" to "merge base", which is the consistent spelling.

Completing configuration sections and variable names for the stuck

compared to doing the same for the unstuck argument of 'git clone
--config <TAB>', because we have to deal with that '--config=' being
part of the current word to be completed.
Add an option to the __git_complete_config_variable_name_and_value()

functions to specify the current section/variable name to be
completed, so they can be used even when completing the stuck argument
of '--config='.
__git_complete_config_variable_value() already has such an option, and

'section.name=value', so we should append a '=' character to each
fully completed variable name, but no space, so the user can continue
typing the value right away.
Add an option to the __git_complete_config_variable_name() function to
allow callers to specify an alternate suffix to add, and use it to

The second '*' in the '--*=*' pattern of the inner 'case' statement of
the __gitcomp() helper function never matches anything, so let's use
'--*=' instead.
The purpose of that inner case statement is to decide when to append a
trailing space to the listed options and when not. When an option
requires a stuck argument, i.e. '--option=', then the trailing space
should not be added, so the user can continue typing the required
argument right away. That '--*=*' pattern is supposed to match these
options, but for this purpose that second '*' is unnecessary, a '--*='
pattern works just as well. That second '*' would only make a
difference in case of a possible completion word like
'--option=value', but our completion script never passes such a word
to __gitcomp(), because the '--option=' and its 'value' must be
completed separately.

The number of configuration variables listed by the completion script
grew quite when we started to auto-generate it from the documentation
[1], so we now complete them in two steps: first we list only the
section names, then the rest [2]. To get the section names we simply
strip everything following the first dot in each variable name,
resulting in a lot of repeated section names, because most sections
contain more than one configuration variable. This is not a
correctness issue in practice, because Bash's completion facilities
remove all repetitions anyway, but these repetitions make testing a
bit harder.
Replace the small 'sed' script removing subsections and variable names
with an 'awk' script that does the same, and in addition removes any
repeated configuration sections as well (by first creating and filling
an associative array indexed by all encountered configuration
sections, and then iterating over this array and printing the indices,
i.e. the unique section names). This change makes the failing 'git
config - section' test in 't9902-completion.sh' pass.
Note that this changes the order of section names in the output, and
makes it downright undeterministic, but this is not an issue, because
Bash sorts them before presenting them to the user, and our completion
tests sort them as well before comparing with the expected output.
Yeah, it would be simpler and shorter to just append '| sort -u' to
that command, but that would incur the overhead of one more external
process and pipeline stage every time a user completes configuration
sections.

Most 'color.*' configuration variables, with the sole exception of
'color.pager', accept the same set of values, but our completion
script recognizes only about half of them. We could explicitly add
all those missing variables, but let's try to reduce future
maintenance burden, and use the catch-all 'color.*' pattern instead,
so this list won't get out of sync when a similar new configuration
variable accepting the same values is introduced [1].
Furthermore, their documentation explicitly mentions that they all
accept the standard boolean values 'false' and 'true' as well, so list
these, too, among the possible values.
[1] OTOH, there will be a maintenance burden if ever a new
'color.something' is introduced which doesn't accept the same set
of values. We'll see which one happens first...

"git <cmd> --git-completion-helper" could fail if the command checks for
a repo before parse_options(). If the result is cached, later on when
the user moves to a worktree with repo, tab completion will still fail.
Avoid this by detecting errors and not cache the completion output. We
can try again and hopefully succeed next time (e.g. when a repo is
found).
Of course if --git-completion-helper fails permanently because of other
reasons (*), this will slow down completion. But I don't see any better
option to handle that case.
(*) one of those cases is if __gitcomp_builtin is called on a command
that does not support --git-completion-helper. And we do have a
generic call
__git_complete_common "$command"
but this case is protected with __git_support_parseopt_helper so we're

If someone wants to use as a filter a sparse file that is in the
repository, something like "--filter=sparse:oid=<ref>:<path>"
already works.
So 'sparse:path' is only interesting if the sparse file is not in
the repository. In this case though the current implementation has
a big security issue, as it makes it possible to ask the server to
read any file, like for example /etc/password, and to explore the
filesystem, as well as individual lines of files.
If someone is interested in using a sparse file that is not in the
repository as a filter, then at the minimum a config option, such
as "uploadpack.sparsePathFilter", should be implemented first to
restrict the directory from which the files specified by
'sparse:path' can be read.
For now though, let's just disable 'sparse:path' filters.
