This allows users with different preferences for access methods to the
same remote repositories to rewrite each other's URLs by pattern
matching across a large set of similiarly set up repositories to each
get the desired access.
For example, if you don't have a kernel.org account, you might want
settings like:
[url "git://git.kernel.org/pub/"]
insteadOf = master.kernel.org:/pub
Then, if you give git a URL like:
master.kernel.org:/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/linville/wireless-2.6.git
it will act like you gave it:
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/linville/wireless-2.6.git
and you can cut-and-paste pull requests in email without fixing them
by hand, for example.

When pushing a refspec like "HEAD", we used to treat it as
"HEAD:HEAD", which didn't work without rewriting. Instead, we should
resolve the ref. If it's a symref, further require it to point to a
branch, to avoid doing anything especially unexpected. Also remove the
rewriting previously added in builtin-push.
Since the code for "HEAD" uses the regular refspec parsing, it
automatically handles "+HEAD" without anything special.
[jc: added a further test to make sure that "remote.*.push = HEAD" works]

* sp/refspec-match:
refactor fetch's ref matching to use refname_match()
push: use same rules as git-rev-parse to resolve refspecs
add refname_match()
push: support pushing HEAD to real branch name
Occasionally, in some setups (*cough* forks on repo.or.cz *cough*) some
refs go stale, e.g. when the forkee rebased and lost some objects needed
by the fork. The quick & dirty way to deal with those refs is to delete
them and push them again.
However, git-push first would first fetch the current commit name for the
ref, would receive a null sha1 since the ref does not point to a valid
object, then tell receive-pack that it should delete the ref with this
commit name. delete_ref() would be subsequently be called, and check that
resolve_ref() (which does _not_ check for validity of the object) returns
the same commit name. Which would fail.
The proper fix is to avoid corrupting repositories, but in the meantime
this is a good fix in any case.
Incidentally, some instances of "cd .." in the test cases were fixed, so
that subsequent test cases run in t/trash/ irrespective of the outcome of
the previous test cases.

This reverts commit 09fba7a59d.
These tests are superseded by the ones in t5404 (added in
6fa92bf3 and 8736a848), which are more extensive and better
organized.

This commit changes the rules for resolving refspecs to match the
rules for resolving refs in rev-parse. git-rev-parse uses clear rules
to resolve a short ref to its full name, which are well documented.
The rules for resolving refspecs documented in git-send-pack were
less strict and harder to understand. This commit replaces them by
the rules of git-rev-parse.
The unified rules are easier to understand and better resolve ambiguous
cases. You can now push from a repository containing several branches
ending on the same short name.
Note, this may break existing setups. For example, "master" will no longer
resolve to "origin/master" even when there is no other "master" elsewhere.

This teaches "push <remote> HEAD" to resolve HEAD on the local
side to its real branch name, e.g. master, and then act as if
the real branch name was specified. So we have a shorthand for
pushing the current branch. Besides HEAD, no other symbolic ref
is resolved.
Thanks to Daniel Barkalow <barkalow@iabervon.org> for suggesting
this implementation, which is much simpler than the
implementation proposed before.

The default behaviour of git-push is potentially confusing
for new users, since it will push changes that are not on
the current branch. Publishing patches that were still
cooking on a development branch is hard to undo.
It would also be nice to be able to verify the expansion
of refspecs if you've edited them, so that you know
what branches matched on the server.
Adding a --dry-run flag allows the user to experiment
safely and learn how to use git-push properly. Originally
suggested by Steffen Prohaska.

When wc outputs whitespace, the test "$(command | wc -l)" = 1 is
broken because " 1" != "1". Let the shell eat the whitespace by
using test 1 = $(command | wc -l) instead.

Earlier, when the local repository has a branch "frotz" and the
remote repository has a tag "frotz" (but not branch "frotz"),
"git-push frotz" mistakenly updated the tag at the remote side.
This was because the partial refname matching code was applied
independently on both source and destination side.
With this fix, when a colon-less refspec is given to git-push,
we first match it with the refs in the source repository, and
update the matching ref in the destination repository.

When "git push A:B" is given, and A (or B) is not a full refname
that begins with refs/, we require an unambiguous match with an
existing ref. For this purpose, a match with a local branch or
a tag (i.e. refs/heads/A and refs/tags/A) is called a "strong
match", and any other match is called a "weak match". A partial
refname is unambiguous when there is only one strong match with
any number of weak matches, or when there is only one weak match
and no other match.
However, as reported by Sparse with Ramsay Jones recently,
count_refspec_match() function had a bug where a variable in an
inner block masked a different variable of the same name, which
caused the weak matches to be ignored.
This fixes it, and adds tests for the fix.
