901707babc i18n: clean.c: match string with git-add--interactive.perl
Change strings for help to match the ones in git-add--interactive.perl.
The strings now represent one entry to translate each rather then two
entries each different only by an ending newline character.

5fa832640a i18n: add--interactive: mark simple here-documents for translation
Mark messages in here-documents without interpolation for translation.

The here-document delimiter \EOF, which is the same as 'EOF', indicates
that the text is to be treated literally without interpolation of its
content.  Unfortunately xgettext is not able to extract here-documents
delimited with \EOF but it is with delimiter enclosed in single quotes.
So change \EOF to 'EOF', although in this case does not make
difference what variation of here-document to use since there is nothing
to interpolate.

87433261a4 parse-options: print "fatal:" before usage_msg_opt()
Programs may use usage_msg_opt() to print a brief message
followed by the program usage, and then exit. The message
isn't prefixed at all, though, so it doesn't match our usual
error output and is easy to overlook:

    $ git clone 1 2 3
    Too many arguments.

    usage: git clone [<options>] [--] <repo> [<dir>]

    -v, --verbose         be more verbose
    -q, --quiet           be more quiet
    --progress            force progress reporting
    -n, --no-checkout     don't create a checkout
    --bare                create a bare repository
    [...and so on for another 31 lines...]

It looks especially bad when the message starts with an
option, like:

    $ git replace -e
    -e needs exactly one argument

    usage: git replace [-f] <object> <replacement>
       or: git replace [-f] --edit <object>
    [...etc...]

Let's put our usual "fatal:" prefix in front of it.

046e4c1c09 Makefile: exclude contrib from FIND_SOURCE_FILES
When you're working on the git project, you're unlikely to
care about random bits in contrib/ (e.g., you would not want
to jump to the copy of xmalloc in the wincred credential
helper). Nobody has really complained because there are
relatively few C files in contrib.

Now that we're matching shell scripts, too, we get quite a
few more hits, especially in the obsolete contrib/examples
directory. Looking for usage() should turn up the one in
git-sh-setup, not in some long-dead version of git-clone.

Let's just exclude all of contrib. Any specific projects
there which are big enough to want tags can generate them
separately.

8fa2043293 Makefile: match shell scripts in FIND_SOURCE_FILES
We feed FIND_SOURCE_FILES to ctags to help developers
navigate to particular functions, but we only feed C source
code. The same feature can be helpful when working with
shell scripts (especially the test suite). Modern versions
of ctags know how to parse shell scripts; we just need to
feed the filenames to it.

This patch specifically avoids including the individual test
scripts themselves. Those are unlikely to be of interest,
and there are a lot of them to process. It does pick up
test-lib.sh and test-lib-functions.sh.

Note that our negative pathspec already excludes the
individual scripts for the ls-files case, but we need to
loosen the `find` rule to match it.

e6fc85b11f Makefile: exclude test cruft from FIND_SOURCE_FILES
The test directory may contain three types of files that
match our patterns:

  1. Helper programs in t/helper.

  2. Sample data files (e.g., t/t4051/hello.c).

  3. Untracked cruft in trash directories and t/perf/build.

We want to match (1), but not the other two, as they just
clutter up the list.

For the ls-files method, we can drop (2) with a negative
pathspec. We do not have to care about (3), since ls-files
will not list untracked files.

For `find`, we can match both cases with `-prune` patterns.

eaa76de0df t5547-push-quarantine: run the path separator test on Windows, too
To perform the test case on Windows in a way that corresponds to the
POSIX version, inject the semicolon in a directory name.

Typically, an absolute POSIX style path, such as the one in $PWD, is
translated into a Windows style path by bash when it invokes git.exe.
However, the presence of the semicolon suppresses this translation;
but the untranslated POSIX style path is useless for git.exe.
Therefore, instead of $PWD pass the Windows style path that $(pwd)
produces.

f6f8586140 submodule: add absorb-git-dir function
When a submodule has its git dir inside the working dir, the submodule
support for checkout that we plan to add in a later patch will fail.

Add functionality to migrate the git directory to be absorbed
into the superprojects git directory.

The newly added code in this patch is structured such that other areas of
Git can also make use of it. The code in the submodule--helper is a mere
wrapper and option parser for the function
`absorb_git_dir_into_superproject`, that takes care of embedding the
submodules git directory into the superprojects git dir. That function
makes use of the more abstract function for this use case
`relocate_gitdir`, which can be used by e.g. the worktree code eventually
to move around a git directory.

1a248cf21d worktree: check if a submodule uses worktrees
In a later patch we want to move around the the git directory of
a submodule. Both submodules as well as worktrees are involved in
placing git directories at unusual places, so their functionality
may collide. To react appropriately to situations where worktrees
in submodules are in use, offer a new function to query the
a submodule if it uses the worktree feature.

An earlier approach:
  "Implement submodule_get_worktrees and just count them", however:
  This can be done cheaply (both in new code to write as well as run time)
  by obtaining the list of worktrees based off that submodules git
  directory. However as we have loaded the variables for the current
  repository, the values in the submodule worktree
  can be wrong, e.g.
  * core.ignorecase may differ between these two repositories
  * the ref resolution is broken (refs/heads/branch in the submodule
    resolves to the sha1 value of the `branch` in the current repository
    that may not exist or have another sha1)

The implementation here is just checking for any files in
$GIT_COMMON_DIR/worktrees for the submodule, which ought to be sufficient
if the submodule is using the current repository format, which we also
check.

aae2ae4f74 tmp-objdir: quote paths we add to alternates
Commit 722ff7f87 (receive-pack: quarantine objects until
pre-receive accepts, 2016-10-03) regressed pushes to
repositories with colon (or semi-colon in Windows in them)
because it adds the repository's main object directory to
GIT_ALTERNATE_OBJECT_DIRECTORIES. The receiver interprets
the colon as a delimiter, not as part of the path, and
index-pack is unable to find objects which it needs to
resolve deltas.

The previous commit introduced a quoting mechanism for the
alternates list; let's use it here to cover this case. We'll
avoid quoting when we can, though. This alternate setup is
also used when calling hooks, so it's possible that the user
may call older git implementations which don't understand
the quoting mechanism. By quoting only when necessary, this
setup will continue to work unless the user _also_ has a
repository whose path contains the delimiter.

cf3c635210 alternates: accept double-quoted paths
We read lists of alternates from objects/info/alternates
files (delimited by newline), as well as from the
GIT_ALTERNATE_OBJECT_DIRECTORIES environment variable
(delimited by colon or semi-colon, depending on the
platform).

There's no mechanism for quoting the delimiters, so it's
impossible to specify an alternate path that contains a
colon in the environment, or one that contains a newline in
a file. We've lived with that restriction for ages because
both alternates and filenames with colons are relatively
rare, and it's only a problem when the two meet. But since
722ff7f87 (receive-pack: quarantine objects until
pre-receive accepts, 2016-10-03), which builds on the
alternates system, every push causes the receiver to set
GIT_ALTERNATE_OBJECT_DIRECTORIES internally.

It would be convenient to have some way to quote the
delimiter so that we can represent arbitrary paths.

The simplest thing would be an escape character before a
quoted delimiter (e.g., "\:" as a literal colon). But that
creates a backwards compatibility problem: any path which
uses that escape character is now broken, and we've just
shifted the problem. We could choose an unlikely escape
character (e.g., something from the non-printable ASCII
range), but that's awkward to use.

Instead, let's treat names as unquoted unless they begin
with a double-quote, in which case they are interpreted via
our usual C-stylke quoting rules. This also breaks
backwards-compatibility, but in a smaller way: it only
matters if your file has a double-quote as the very _first_
character in the path (whereas an escape character is a
problem anywhere in the path).  It's also consistent with
many other parts of git, which accept either a bare pathname
or a double-quoted one, and the sender can choose to quote
or not as required.

search for possible alternates for nested submodules as well.

As submodule's alternate target does not end in .git/objects

path restriction for in add_possible_reference_from_superproject
relates from "*.git/objects" to just */objects".

86defcbe3f difftool: fix dir-diff index creation when in a subdirectory
9ec26e7977 (difftool: fix argument handling in subdirs, 2016-07-18)
corrected how path arguments are handled in a subdirectory, but
it introduced a regression in how entries outside of the
subdirectory are handled by dir-diff.

When preparing the right-side of the diff we only include the
changed paths in the temporary area.

The left side of the diff is constructed from a temporary
index that is built from the same set of changed files, but it
was being constructed from within the subdirectory.  This is a
problem because the indexed paths are toplevel-relative, and
thus they were not getting added to the index.

Teach difftool to chdir to the toplevel of the repository before
preparing its temporary indexes.  This ensures that all of the
toplevel-relative paths are valid.

Add test cases to more thoroughly exercise this scenario.

cbb3f3c9b1 mingw: intercept isatty() to handle /dev/null as Git expects it
When Git's source code calls isatty(), it really asks whether the
respective file descriptor is connected to an interactive terminal.

Windows' _isatty() function, however, determines whether the file
descriptor is associated with a character device. And NUL, Windows'
equivalent of /dev/null, is a character device.

Which means that for years, Git mistakenly detected an associated
interactive terminal when being run through the test suite, which
almost always redirects stdin, stdout and stderr to /dev/null.

This bug only became obvious, and painfully so, when the new
bisect--helper entered the `pu` branch and made the automatic build & test
time out because t6030 was waiting for an answer.

d9f31fbfe9 pretty: add %(trailers) format for displaying trailers of a commit message
Recent patches have expanded on the trailers.c code and we have the
builtin commant git-interpret-trailers which can be used to add or
modify trailer lines. However, there is no easy way to simply display
the trailers of a commit message.

Add support for %(trailers) format modifier which will use the
trailer_info_get() calls to read trailers in an identical way as git
interpret-trailers does. Use a long format option instead of a short
name so that future work can more easily unify ref-filter and pretty
formats.

Add documentation and tests for the same.

9512177b68 rebase: add --quit to cleanup rebase, leave everything else untouched
There are occasions when you decide to abort an in-progress rebase and
move on to do something else but you forget to do "git rebase --abort"
first. Or the rebase has been in progress for so long you forgot about
it. By the time you realize that (e.g. by starting another rebase)
it's already too late to retrace your steps. The solution is normally

    rm -r .git/<some rebase dir>

and continue with your life. But there could be two different
directories for <some rebase dir> (and it obviously requires some
knowledge of how rebase works), and the ".git" part could be much
longer if you are not at top-dir, or in a linked worktree. And
"rm -r" is very dangerous to do in .git, a mistake in there could
destroy object database or other important data.

Provide "git rebase --quit" for this use case, mimicking a precedent
that is "git cherry-pick --quit".

47437fd3bd doc: omit needless "for"
What was intended was perhaps "... plumbing does for you" ("you" added), but
simply omitting the word "for" is more terse and gets the intended point across
just as well, if not more so.

I originally went with the approach of writing "for you", but Junio C
Hamano suggested this approach instead.

c857c3a1ce doc: make the intent of sentence clearer
By adding the word "just", which might have been accidentally omitted.

Adding the word "just" makes it clear that the point is to *not* do an
octopus merge simply because you *can* do it.  In other words, you
should have a reason for doing it beyond simply having two (seemingly)
independent commits that you need to merge into another branch, since
it's not always the best approach.

The previous sentence made it look more like it was trying to say that
you shouldn't do an octopus merge *because* you can do an octopus merge.
Although this interpretation doesn't make sense and the rest of the
paragraph makes the intended meaning clear, this adjustment should make
the intent of the sentence more immediately clear to the reader.

6f94351b0a test-lib-functions.sh: teach test_commit -C <dir>
Specifically when setting up submodule tests, it comes in handy if
we can create commits in repositories that are not at the root of
the tested trash dir. Add "-C <dir>" similar to gits -C parameter
that will perform the operation in the given directory.

access to the superproject prefix. Enable this in the git.c
