ee34a2bead repack: add repack.packKeptObjects config var
The git-repack command always passes `--honor-pack-keep`
to pack-objects. This has traditionally been a good thing,
as we do not want to duplicate those objects in a new pack,
and we are not going to delete the old pack.

However, when bitmaps are in use, it is important for a full
repack to include all reachable objects, even if they may be
duplicated in a .keep pack. Otherwise, we cannot generate
the bitmaps, as the on-disk format requires the set of
objects in the pack to be fully closed.

Even if the repository does not generally have .keep files,
a simultaneous push could cause a race condition in which a
.keep file exists at the moment of a repack. The repack may
try to include those objects in one of two situations:

  1. The pushed .keep pack contains objects that were
     already in the repository (e.g., blobs due to a revert of
     an old commit).

  2. Receive-pack updates the refs, making the objects
     reachable, but before it removes the .keep file, the
     repack runs.

In either case, we may prefer to duplicate some objects in
the new, full pack, and let the next repack (after the .keep
file is cleaned up) take care of removing them.

This patch introduces both a command-line and config option
to disable the `--honor-pack-keep` option.  By default, it
is triggered when pack.writeBitmaps (or `--write-bitmap-index`
is turned on), but specifying it explicitly can override the
behavior (e.g., in cases where you prefer .keep files to
bitmaps, but only when they are present).

Note that this option just disables the pack-objects
behavior. We still leave packs with a .keep in place, as we
do not necessarily know that we have duplicated all of their
objects.

893a9764dc submodule update: consistently document the '--checkout' option
Commit 322bb6e12f (add update 'none' flag to disable update of submodule
by default) added the '--checkout' option to "git submodule update" but
forgot to explicitly document it in synopsis, usage string and man page
(It is only mentioned implicitly in the man page). In 23d25e48 (submodule:
explicit local branch creation in module_clone) the synopsis of the man
page was updated, but the "OPTIONS" section of the man page and the usage
string of the git-submodule script still do not mention the '--checkout'
option.

Fix that by documenting this option in usage string and the "OPTIONS"
section of man page too. While at it group the update-mode options into
a single set in the usage string.

7671b63211 add uploadarchive.allowUnreachable option
In commit ee27ca4, we started restricting remote git-archive
invocations to only accessing reachable commits. This
matches what upload-pack allows, but does restrict some
useful cases (e.g., HEAD:foo). We loosened this in 0f544ee,
which allows `foo:bar` as long as `foo` is a ref tip.
However, that still doesn't allow many useful things, like:

  1. Commits accessible from a ref, like `foo^:bar`, which
     are reachable

  2. Arbitrary sha1s, even if they are reachable.

We can do a full object-reachability check for these cases,
but it can be quite expensive if the client has sent us the
sha1 of a tree; we have to visit every sub-tree of every
commit in the worst case.

Let's instead give site admins an escape hatch, in case they
prefer the more liberal behavior.  For many sites, the full
object database is public anyway (e.g., if you allow dumb
walker access), or the site admin may simply decide the
security/convenience tradeoff is not worth it.

This patch adds a new config option to disable the
restrictions added in ee27ca4. It defaults to off, meaning
there is no change in behavior by default.

0179c945fc shallow: automatically clean up shallow tempfiles
We sometimes write tempfiles of the form "shallow_XXXXXX"
during fetch/push operations with shallow repositories.
Under normal circumstances, we clean up the result when we
are done. However, we do no take steps to clean up after
ourselves when we exit due to die() or signal death.

This patch teaches the tempfile creation code to register
handlers to clean up after ourselves. To handle this, we
change the ownership semantics of the filename returned by
setup_temporary_shallow. It now keeps a copy of the filename
itself, and returns only a const pointer to it.

We can also do away with explicit tempfile removal in the
callers. They all exit not long after finishing with the
file, so they can rely on the auto-cleanup, simplifying the
code.

Note that we keep things simple and maintain only a single
filename to be cleaned. This is sufficient for the current
caller, but we future-proof it with a die("BUG").

0cc77c386c shallow: use stat_validity to check for up-to-date file
When we are about to write the shallow file, we check that
it has not changed since we last read it. Instead of
hand-rolling this, we can use stat_validity. This is built
around the index stat-check, so it is more robust than just
checking the mtime, as we do now (it uses the same check as
we do for index files).

The new code also handles the case of a shallow file
appearing unexpectedly. With the current code, two
simultaneous processes making us shallow (e.g., two "git
fetch --depth=1" running at the same time in a non-shallow
repository) can race to overwrite each other.

As a bonus, we also remove a race in determining the stat
information of what we read (we stat and then open, leaving
a race window; instead we should open and then fstat the
descriptor).

5aae66bd99 request-pull: resurrect "pretty refname" feature
When asking to fetch/pull a branch whose name is B or a tag whose
name is T, we used to show the command to run as:

	git pull $URL B
        git pull $URL tags/T

even when B and T were spelled in a more qualified way in order to
disambiguate, e.g. heads/B or refs/tags/T, but the recent update
lost this feature.  Resurrect it.

28ad685f70 request-pull: test updates
This illustrates behaviour changes that result from the recent
change by Linus.  Most show good changes, but there may be some
usability regressions:

 - The command continues to fail when the user forgot to push out
   before running the command, but the wording of the message has
   been slightly changed.

 - The command no longer guesses when asked to request the commit at
   the HEAD be pulled after pushing it to a branch 'for-upstream',
   even when that branch points at the correct commit.  The user
   must ask the command with the new "master:for-upstream" syntax.

The new behaviour needs to be documented in any case, but we need to
agree what the new behaviour should be before doing so first.

4b14ec878a request-pull: pick up tag message as before
The previous two steps were meant to stop updating the explicit
refname the user gave to the command to a different ref that points
at it.  Most notably, we no longer substitute a branch name the user
used with a name of the tag that points at the commit at the tip of
the branch (it still can be done with "local-branch:remote-tag").

However, they also lost the code that included the message in a
tag when the user _did_ ask the tag to be pulled.  Resurrect it.

dc2eacc58c request-pull: allow "local:remote" to specify names on both ends
This allows a user to say that a local branch has a different name on
the remote server, using the same syntax that "git push" uses to create
that situation.

024d34cb08 request-pull: more strictly match local/remote branches
The current 'request-pull' will try to find matching commit on the given
remote, and rewrite the "please pull" line to match that remote ref.

That may be very helpful if your local tree doesn't match the layout of
the remote branches, but for the common case it's been a recurring
disaster, when "request-pull" is done against a delayed remote update, and
it rewrites the target branch randomly to some other branch name that
happens to have the same expected SHA1 (or more commonly, leaves it
blank).

To avoid that recurring problem, this changes "git request-pull" so that
it matches the ref name to be pulled against the *local* repository, and
then warns if the remote repository does not have that exact same branch
or tag name and content.

This means that git request-pull will never rewrite the ref-name you gave
it.  If the local branch name is "xyzzy", that is the only branch name
that request-pull will ask the other side to fetch.

If the remote has that branch under a different name, that's your problem
and git request-pull will not try to fix it up (but git request-pull will
warn about the fact that no exact matching branch is found, and you can
edit the end result to then have the remote name you want if it doesn't
match your local one).

The new "find local ref" code will also complain loudly if you give an
ambiguous refname (eg you have both a tag and a branch with that same
name, and you don't specify "heads/name" or "tags/name").
