Previously, when --verify was specified, show-ref would use a separate
code path which did not handle HEAD and treated it as an invalid
ref. Thus, "git show-ref --verify HEAD" (where "--verify" is used
because the user is not interested in seeing refs/remotes/origin/HEAD)
did not work as expected.
Instead of insisting that the input begins with "refs/", allow "HEAD"
as well in the codepath that handles "--verify", so that all valid
full refnames including HEAD are passed to the same output machinery.

Pass the comparison function to cmp_items() via the context parameter of
qsort_s() instead of using a global variable. That allows calling
string_list_sort() from multiple parallel threads.
Our qsort_s() in compat/ is slightly slower than qsort(1) from glibc
2.24 for sorting lots of lines:
Test HEAD^ HEAD
---------------------------------------------------------------------
0071.2: sort(1) 0.10(0.22+0.01) 0.09(0.21+0.00) -10.0%
0071.3: string_list_sort() 0.16(0.15+0.01) 0.17(0.15+0.00) +6.3%
GNU sort(1) version 8.26 is significantly faster because it uses
multiple parallel threads; with the unportable option --parallel=1 it
becomes slower:
Test HEAD^ HEAD
--------------------------------------------------------------------
0071.2: sort(1) 0.21(0.18+0.01) 0.20(0.18+0.01) -4.8%
0071.3: string_list_sort() 0.16(0.13+0.02) 0.17(0.15+0.01) +6.3%
There is some instability -- the numbers for the sort(1) check shouldn't
be affected by this patch. Anyway, the performance of our qsort_s()
implementation is apparently good enough, at least for this test.

The function qsort_s() was introduced with C11 Annex K; it provides the
ability to pass a context pointer to the comparison function, supports
the convention of using a NULL pointer for an empty array and performs a
few safety checks.
Add an implementation based on compat/qsort.c for platforms that lack a
native standards-compliant qsort_s() (i.e. basically everyone). It
doesn't perform the full range of possible checks: It uses size_t
instead of rsize_t and doesn't check nmemb and size against RSIZE_MAX
because we probably don't have the restricted size type defined. For
the same reason it returns int instead of errno_t.

While Git has traditionally built its documentation using AsciiDoc, some

the AsciiDoc options also produce XHTML, albeit XHTML 1.1.
Asciidoctor does not have built-in support for the linkgit macro, but it

There are two ways to create a section in a reference document (i.e.,
manpage) in DocBook 4: refsection elements and refsect, refsect2, and
refsect3 elements. Either form is acceptable as of DocBook 4.2, but
they cannot be mixed. Prior to DocBook 4.2, only the numbered forms
were acceptable.
docbook2texi only accepts the numbered forms, and this has not generally
been a problem, since AsciiDoc produces the numbered forms.
Asciidoctor, on the other hand, uses a shared backend for DocBook 4 and
5, and uses the unnumbered refsection elements instead.
If we don't convert the unnumbered form to the numbered form,
docbook2texi omits section headings, which is undesirable. Add an XSLT
stylesheet to transform the unnumbered forms to the numbered forms
automatically, and preprocess the DocBook XML as part of the
transformation to Texinfo format.
Note that this transformation is only necessary for Texinfo, since
docbook2texi provides its own stylesheets. The DocBook stylesheets,
which we use for other formats, provide the full range of DocBook 4 and
5 compatibility, and don't have this issue.

One of the really nice features of the ~/.gitconfig file is that users
can override defaults by their own preferred settings for all of their
repositories.
One such default that some users like to override is whether the
"origin" remote gets auto-pruned or not. The user would simply call
git config --global remote.origin.prune true
and from now on all "origin" remotes would be pruned automatically when
fetching into the local repository.
There is just one catch: now Git thinks that the "origin" remote is
configured, even if the repository config has no [remote "origin"]
section at all, as it does not realize that the "prune" setting was
configured globally and that there really is no "origin" remote
configured in this repository.
That is a problem e.g. when renaming a remote to a new name, when Git
may be fooled into thinking that there is already a remote of that new
name.
Let's fix this by paying more attention to *where* the remote settings
came from: if they are configured in the local repository config, we
must not overwrite them. If they were configured elsewhere, we cannot
overwrite them to begin with, as we only write the repository config.
There is only one caller of remote_is_configured() (in `git fetch`) that
may want to take remotes into account even if they were configured
outside the repository config; all other callers essentially try to
prevent the Git command from overwriting settings in the repository
config.
To accommodate that fact, the remote_is_configured() function now
requires a parameter that states whether the caller is interested in all
remotes, or only in those that were configured in the repository config.
Many thanks to Jeff King whose tireless review helped with settling for
nothing less than the current strategy.

Some users like to set `remote.origin.prune = true` in their ~/.gitconfig
so that all of their repositories use that default.
However, our code is ill-prepared for this, mistaking that single entry to

not.

This patch gives life to the skeleton added in the previous patch.
The motivation for converting the difftool is that Perl scripts are not at
all native on Windows, and that `git difftool` therefore is pretty slow on
that platform, when there is no good reason for it to be slow.
In addition, Perl does not really have access to Git's internals. That
means that any script will always have to jump through unnecessary
hoops, and it will often need to perform unnecessary work (e.g. when
reading the entire config every time `git config` is called to query a
single config value).
The current version of the builtin difftool does not, however, make full
use of the internals but instead chooses to spawn a couple of Git
processes, still, to make for an easier conversion. There remains a lot
of room for improvement, left later.
Note: to play it safe, the original difftool is still called unless the
config setting difftool.useBuiltin is set to true.
The reason: this new, experimental, builtin difftool was shipped as part
of Git for Windows v2.11.0, to allow for easier large-scale testing, but
of course as an opt-in feature.
The speedup is actually more noticable on Linux than on Windows: a quick
test shows that t7800-difftool.sh runs in (2.183s/0.052s/0.108s)
(real/user/sys) in a Linux VM, down from (6.529s/3.112s/0.644s), while on
Windows, it is (36.064s/2.730s/7.194s), down from (47.637s/2.407s/6.863s).
The culprit is most likely the overhead incurred from *still* having to
shell out to mergetool-lib.sh and difftool--helper.sh.
Still, it is an improvement.

only to find the file technical/api-in-core-index.txt, which doesn't

* remove_index_entry_at()
* add_[file_]to_index()

We already have documentation for:

Subject: clear_delta_base_cache(): don't modify hashmap while iterating
Removing entries while iterating causes fast-import to
access an already-freed `struct packed_git`, leading to
various confusing errors.
What happens is that clear_delta_base_cache() drops the
whole contents of the cache by iterating over the hashmap,
calling release_delta_base_cache() on each entry. That
function removes the item from the hashmap. The hashmap code
may then shrink the table, but the hashmap_iter struct
retains an offset from the old table.
As a result, the next call to hashmap_iter_next() may claim
that the iteration is done, even though some items haven't
been visited.
The only caller of clear_delta_base_cache() is fast-import,
which wants to clear the cache because it is discarding the
packed_git struct for its temporary pack. So by failing to
remove all of the entries, we still have references to the
freed packed_git.
To make things even more confusing, this doesn't seem to
trigger with the test suite, because it depends on
complexities like the size of the hash table, which entries
got cleared, whether we try to access them before they're
evicted from the cache, etc.
So I've been able to identify the problem with large
imports like freebsd's svn import, or a fast-export of
linux.git. But nothing that would be reasonable to run as
part of the normal test suite.
We can fix this easily by iterating over the lru linked list
instead of the hashmap. They both contain the same entries,
and we can use the "safe" variant of the list iterator,
which exists for exactly this case.
Let's also add a warning to the hashmap API documentation to
reduce the chances of getting bit by this again.
