When we originally did the series that contains 7ba826290a
(revision: add rev_input_given flag, 2017-08-02) the intent
was that "git rev-list --stdin </dev/null" would similarly
become a successful noop. However, an attempt at the time to
do that did not work[1]. The problem is that rev_input_given
serves two roles:
- it tells rev-list.c that it should not error out
- it tells revision.c that it should not have the "default"
ref kick (e.g., "HEAD" in "git log")
We want to trigger the former, but not the latter. This is
technically possible with a single flag, if we set the flag
only after revision.c's revs->def check. But this introduces
a rather subtle ordering dependency.
Instead, let's keep two flags: one to denote when we got
actual input (which triggers both roles) and one for when we
read stdin (which triggers only the first).
This does mean a caller interested in the first role has to
check both flags, but there's only one such caller. And any
future callers might want to make the distinction anyway
(e.g., if they care less about erroring out, and more about
whether revision.c soaked up our stdin).
In fact, we already keep such a flag internally in
revision.c for this purpose, so this is really just exposing
that to the caller (and the old function-local flag can go
away in favor of our new one).

Prior to d3c6751b18 (tests: make use of the test_must_be_empty
function, 2018-07-27), in the test 'rev-list should succeed with empty
output on empty stdin' in 't6018-rev-list-glob' the empty 'expect'
file served dual purpose: besides specifying the expected output, as
usual, it also served as empty input for 'git rev-list --stdin'.
Then d3c6751b18 came along, and, as part of the conversion to
'test_must_be_empty', removed this empty 'expect' file, not realizing
its secondary purpose. Redirecting stdin from the now non-existing
file failed the test, but since this test expects failure in the first
place, this issue went unnoticed.
Redirect 'git rev-list's stdin explicitly from /dev/null to provide
empty input. (Strictly speaking we don't need this redirection,
because the test script's stdin is already redirected from /dev/null
anyway, but I think it's better to be explicit about it.)

Change various tests that use an idiom of the form:
>expect &&
test_cmp expect actual
To instead use:
test_must_be_empty actual
The test_must_be_empty() wrapper was introduced in ca8d148daf ("test:
test_must_be_empty helper", 2013-06-09). Many of these tests have been
added after that time. This was mostly found with, and manually pruned
from:

If the user gives us no starting point for a traversal, we
want to complain with our normal usage message. But if they
tried to do so with "--all" or "--glob", but that happened
not to match any refs, the usage message isn't helpful. We
should just give them the empty output they asked for
instead.

In 751a2ac6e (rev-list --exclude: tests, 2013-11-01), we
added a few tests for handling "empty" inputs with rev-list
(i.e., where the user gave us some pattern but it turned out
not to queue any objects for traversal), all of which were
marked as failing.
In preparation for working on this area of the code, let's
give each test a more descriptive name. Let's also include
one more case which we should cover: feeding a --glob
pattern that doesn't match anything.
We can also drop the explanatory comment; we'll be
converting these to expect_success in the next few patches,
so the discussion isn't necessary.

Teach "rev-parse" the same "I'm going to glob, but omit the ones
that match these patterns" feature as "rev-list".

Add tests for the --exclude=<glob> feature.
A few tests are added for cases where use of globbing and
"--exclude" results in no positive revisions:
* "--exclude=<glob>" before "--all" etc. resulted in no results;
* "--stdin" is used but no input was given;
* "--all" etc. is used but no matching refs are found.
Currently, we fail such a request with the same error message we
would give to a command line that does not specify any positive
revision (e.g. "git rev-list<ENTER>").
We may want to treat these cases differently and not error out, but
the logic to detect that would be common to all of them, so I'd
leave it outside this topic for now, and stop at adding these tests
as food-for-thought.

As v1.6.0-rc2~42 (2008-07-31) explains, even pseudo-options like --not
and --glob that need to be parsed in order with revisions should be
marked handled by handle_revision_opt to avoid an error when
parse_revision_opt callers like "git shortlog" encounter them.

Since local branch, tags and remote tracking branch namespaces are
most often used, add shortcut notations for globbing those in
manner similar to --glob option.
With this, one can express the "what I have but origin doesn't?"
as:
'git log --branches --not --remotes=origin'

Add --glob=<glob-pattern> option to rev-parse and everything that
accepts its options. This option matches all refs that match given
shell glob pattern (complete with some DWIM logic).
Example:
'git log --branches --not --glob=remotes/origin'
To show what you have that origin doesn't.
