Most struct child_process variables are cleared using memset first after
declaration. Provide a macro, CHILD_PROCESS_INIT, that can be used to
initialize them statically instead. That's shorter, doesn't require a
function call and is slightly more readable (especially given that we
already have STRBUF_INIT, ARGV_ARRAY_INIT etc.).

"When you need to use space, use dash" is a strange way to say that
you must not use a space. Because it is more common for the command
line descriptions to use dashed-multi-words, you do not even want to
use spaces in these places. Rephrase the documentation to avoid
this strangeness.
Fix a few existing multi-word argument help strings, i.e.
- GPG key-ids given to -S/--gpg-sign are "key-id";
- Refs used for storing notes are "notes-ref"; and
- Expiry timestamps given to --expire are "expiry-date".

Currently "git notes add -C $object" will read the raw bytes from $object,
and then copy those bytes into the note object, which is hardcoded to be
of type blob. This means that if the given $object is a non-blob (e.g.
tree or commit), the raw bytes from that object is copied into a blob
object. This is probably not useful, and certainly not what any sane
user would expect. So disallow it, by erroring out if the $object passed
to the -C option is not a blob.
The fix also applies to the -c option (in which the user is prompted to
edit/verify the note contents in a text editor), and also when -c/-C is
passed to "git notes append" (which appends the $object contents to an
existing note object). In both cases, passing a non-blob $object does not
make sense.
Also add a couple of tests demonstrating expected behavior.

In b04ba2bb4 Junio suggested to replace it with either
OPTION_SET_INT or OPTION_COUNTUP instead. However a pattern, which
occurred often with the OPTION_BOOLEAN was a hidden boolean parameter.
So I defined OPT_HIDDEN_BOOL as an additional possible parse option
in parse-options.h to make life easy.
The OPT_HIDDEN_BOOL was used in checkout, clone, commit, show-ref.
The only exception, where there was need to fiddle with OPTION_SET_INT
was log and notes. However in these two files there is also a pattern,

This is a pure code movement of the machinery for copying notes to
rewritten objects. This code was located in builtin/notes.c for
historical reasons. In order to make it available to builtin/commit.c
it was declared in builtin.h. This was more of an accident of history
than a concious design, and we now want to make this machinery more
widely available.
Hence, this patch moves the code into the new notes-utils.[hc] files
which are included into libgit.a. Except for adjusting #includes
accordingly, this patch merely moves the relevant functions verbatim

When copying notes for a rewritten object, the resulting notes commit
would have the following hardcoded commit message:
Notes added by 'git notes copy'
This is obviously bogus when the notes rewriting is performed by
'git commit --amend'.
Therefore, let the caller specify an appropriate notes commit message
instead of hardcoding it. The above message is used for 'git notes copy',
but when calling finish_copy_notes_for_rewrite() from builtin/commit.c,
we use the following message instead:
Notes added by 'git commit --amend'

Some users do want to write a line that begin with a pound sign, #,
in their commit log message. Many tracking system recognise
a token of #<bugid> form, for example.
The support we offer these use cases is not very friendly to the end

- Don't do it. Avoid such a line by rewrapping or indenting; and
- Use --cleanup=whitespace but remove all the hint lines we add.
Give them a way to set a custom comment char, e.g.
$ git -c core.commentchar="%" commit

Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
Depending on the application, it is not necessarily an error for an object
to lack a note, especially if the only thing the caller wants to make sure
is that notes are cleared for an object. By passing this option from the
command line, the "git notes remove" command considers it a success if the
object did not have any note to begin with.

While "xargs -n1 git notes rm" is certainly a possible way to remove notes
from many objects, this would create one notes "commit" per removal, which
is not quite suitable for seasonal housekeeping.
Allow taking more than one on the command line, and record their removal
as a single atomic event if everthing goes well.
Even though the old code insisted that "git notes rm" must be given only
one object (or zero, in which case it would default to HEAD), this
condition was not tested. Add tests to handle the new case where we feed
multiple objects, and also make sure if there is a bad input, no change
is recorded.

Currently, "notes add" (without -f/--force) will abort when the given object
already has existing notes. This makes sense for the modes of "git notes add"
that would necessarily overwrite the old message (when using the -m/-F/-C/-c
options). However, when no options are given (meaning the notes are created
from scratch in the editor) it is not very user-friendly to abort on existing
notes, and forcing the user to run "git notes edit".
Instead, it is better to simply "redirect" to "git notes edit" automatically,
i.e. open the existing notes in the editor and let the user edit them.
This patch does just that.
This changes the behavior of "git notes add" without options when notes
already exist for the given object, but I doubt that many users really depend
on the previous failure from "git notes add" in this case.

This new strategy is similar to "concatenate", but in addition to
concatenating the two note candidates, this strategy sorts the resulting
lines, and removes duplicate lines from the result. This is equivalent to
applying the "cat | sort | uniq" shell pipeline to the two note candidates.
This strategy is useful if the notes follow a line-based format where one
wants to avoid duplicate lines in the merge result.
Note that if either of the note candidates contain duplicate lines _prior_
to the merge, these will also be removed by this merge strategy.

When manually resolving a notes merge, if the merging ref has moved since
the merge started, we should fail to complete the merge, and alert the user
to what's going on.
This situation may arise if you start a 'git notes merge' which results in
conflicts, and you then update the current notes ref (using for example
'git notes add/copy/amend/edit/remove/prune', 'git update-ref', etc.),
before you get around to resolving the notes conflicts and calling
'git notes merge --commit'.
We detect this situation by comparing the first parent of the partial merge
commit (which was created when the merge started) to the current value of the
merging notes ref (pointed to by the .git/NOTES_MERGE_REF symref).
If we don't fail in this situation, the notes merge commit would overwrite
the updated notes ref, thus losing the changes that happened in the meantime.
The patch includes a testcase verifying that we fail correctly in this
situation.

When the notes merge conflicts in .git/NOTES_MERGE_WORKTREE have been
resolved, we need to record a new notes commit on the appropriate notes
ref with the resolved notes.
This patch implements 'git notes merge --commit' which the user should
run after resolving conflicts in the notes merge worktree. This command
finalizes the notes merge by recombining the partial notes tree from
part 1 with the now-resolved conflicts in the notes merge worktree in a
merge commit, and updating the appropriate ref to this merge commit.
In order to correctly finalize the merge, we need to keep track of three
things:
- The partial merge result from part 1, containing the auto-merged notes.
This is now stored into a ref called .git/NOTES_MERGE_PARTIAL.
- The unmerged notes. These are already stored in
.git/NOTES_MERGE_WORKTREE, thanks to part 1.
- The notes ref to be updated by the finalized merge result. This is now
stored in a symref called .git/NOTES_MERGE_REF.
In addition to "git notes merge --commit", which uses the above details
to create the finalized notes merge commit, this patch also implements
"git notes merge --reset", which aborts the ongoing notes merge by simply
removing the files/directory described above.
FTR, "git notes merge --commit" reuses "git notes merge --reset" to remove
the information described above (.git/NOTES_MERGE_*) after the notes merge
have been successfully finalized.
The patch also contains documentation and testcases for the two new options.

Conflicts (that are to be resolved manually) are written into a special-
purpose working tree, located at .git/NOTES_MERGE_WORKTREE. Within this
directory, conflicting notes entries are stored (with conflict markers
produced by ll_merge()) using the SHA1 of the annotated object. The
.git/NOTES_MERGE_WORKTREE directory will only contain the _conflicting_
note entries. The non-conflicting note entries (aka. the partial merge
result) are stored in 'local_tree', and the SHA1 of the resulting commit
is written to 'result_sha1'. The return value from notes_merge() is -1.
The user is told to edit the files within the .git/NOTES_MERGE_WORKTREE
directory in order to resolve the conflicts.
The patch also contains documentation and testcases for the correct setup
of .git/NOTES_MERGE_WORKTREE.

The new -s/--strategy command-line option to 'git notes merge' allow the user
to choose how notes merge conflicts should be resolved. There are four valid
strategies to choose from:
1. "manual" (the default): This will let the user manually resolve conflicts.
This option currently fails with an error message. It will be implemented
properly in future patches.
2. "ours": This automatically chooses the local version of a conflict, and
discards the remote version.
3. "theirs": This automatically chooses the remote version of a conflict, and
discards the local version.
4. "union": This automatically resolves the conflict by appending the remote
version to the local version.
The strategies are implemented using the combine_notes_* functions from the

This continuation of the 'git notes merge' implementation teaches notes-merge
to properly do real merges between notes trees: Two diffs are performed, one
from $base to $remote, and another from $base to $local. The paths in each
diff are normalized to SHA1 object names. The two diffs are then consolidated
into a single list of change pairs to be evaluated. Each change pair consist
of:
- The annotated object's SHA1
- The $base SHA1 (i.e. the common ancestor notes for this object)
- The $local SHA1 (i.e. the current notes for this object)
- The $remote SHA1 (i.e. the to-be-merged notes for this object)
From the pair ($base -> $local, $base -> $remote), we can determine the merge
result using regular 3-way rules. If conflicts are encountered in this
process, we fail loudly and exit (conflict handling to be added in a future
patch), If we can complete the merge without conflicts, the resulting
notes tree is committed, and the current notes ref updated.
The patch includes added testcases verifying that we can successfully do real
conflict-less merges.

The combine_notes_fn functions uses a non-zero return value to indicate
failure. However, this return value was converted to a call to die()
in note_tree_insert().
Instead, propagate this return value out to add_note(), and return it
from there to enable the caller to handle errors appropriately.
Existing add_note() callers are updated to die() upon failure, thus
preserving the current behaviour. The only exceptions are copy_note()
and notes_cache_put() where we are able to propagate the add_note()
