Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason 8d7b558bae checkout & worktree: introduce checkout.defaultRemote
Introduce a checkout.defaultRemote setting which can be used to
designate a remote to prefer (via checkout.defaultRemote=origin) when
running e.g. "git checkout master" to mean origin/master, even though
there's other remotes that have the "master" branch.

I want this because it's very handy to use this workflow to checkout a
repository and create a topic branch, then get back to a "master" as
retrieved from upstream:

    (
        cd /tmp &&
        rm -rf tbdiff &&
        git clone git@github.com:trast/tbdiff.git &&
        cd tbdiff &&
        git branch -m topic &&
        git checkout master
    )

That will output:

    Branch 'master' set up to track remote branch 'master' from 'origin'.
    Switched to a new branch 'master'

But as soon as a new remote is added (e.g. just to inspect something
from someone else) the DWIMery goes away:

    (
        cd /tmp &&
        rm -rf tbdiff &&
        git clone git@github.com:trast/tbdiff.git &&
        cd tbdiff &&
        git branch -m topic &&
        git remote add avar git@github.com:avar/tbdiff.git &&
        git fetch avar &&
        git checkout master
    )

Will output (without the advice output added earlier in this series):

    error: pathspec 'master' did not match any file(s) known to git.

The new checkout.defaultRemote config allows me to say that whenever
that ambiguity comes up I'd like to prefer "origin", and it'll still
work as though the only remote I had was "origin".

Also adjust the advice.checkoutAmbiguousRemoteBranchName message to
mention this new config setting to the user, the full output on my
git.git is now (the last paragraph is new):

    $ ./git --exec-path=$PWD checkout master
    error: pathspec 'master' did not match any file(s) known to git.
    hint: 'master' matched more than one remote tracking branch.
    hint: We found 26 remotes with a reference that matched. So we fell back
    hint: on trying to resolve the argument as a path, but failed there too!
    hint:
    hint: If you meant to check out a remote tracking branch on, e.g. 'origin',
    hint: you can do so by fully qualifying the name with the --track option:
    hint:
    hint:     git checkout --track origin/<name>
    hint:
    hint: If you'd like to always have checkouts of an ambiguous <name> prefer
    hint: one remote, e.g. the 'origin' remote, consider setting
    hint: checkout.defaultRemote=origin in your config.

I considered splitting this into checkout.defaultRemote and
worktree.defaultRemote, but it's probably less confusing to break our
own rules that anything shared between config should live in core.*
than have two config settings, and I couldn't come up with a short
name under core.* that made sense (core.defaultRemoteForCheckout?).

See also 70c9ac2f19 ("DWIM "git checkout frotz" to "git checkout -b
frotz origin/frotz"", 2009-10-18) which introduced this DWIM feature
to begin with, and 4e85333197 ("worktree: make add <path> <branch>
dwim", 2017-11-26) which added it to git-worktree.

Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason 3c87aa946a checkout: pass the "num_matches" up to callers
Pass the previously added "num_matches" struct value up to the callers
of unique_tracking_name(). This will allow callers to optionally print
better error messages in a later change.

Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason e4d2d55ae4 checkout.c: change "unique" member to "num_matches"
Internally track how many matches we find in the check_tracking_name()
callback. Nothing uses this now, but it will be made use of in a later
change.

Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason e417151b24 checkout.c: introduce an *_INIT macro
Add an *_INIT macro for the tracking_name_data similar to what exists
elsewhere in the codebase, e.g. OID_ARRAY_INIT in sha1-array.h. This
will make it more idiomatic in later changes to add more fields to the
struct & its initialization macro.

Brandon Williams 0ad4a5ff50 refspec: rename struct refspec to struct refspec_item
In preparation for introducing an abstraction around a collection of
refspecs (much like how a 'struct pathspec' is a collection of 'struct
pathspec_item's) rename the existing 'struct refspec' to 'struct
refspec_item'.

Thomas Gummerer 7c85a87c54 checkout: factor out functions to new lib file
Factor the functions out, so they can be re-used from other places.  In
particular these functions will be re-used in builtin/worktree.c to make
git worktree add dwim more.

While there add some docs to the function.
