An earlier fix added an extra message immediately after failing to
download a third-party package. But near the end of the script,
their availability is checked again and given a message.
Remove the new ones added with a recent fix, as they are redundant.
If we were to add more places to download these software (e.g. for
other platforms we currently do not download them on), the existing
warnning near the end of the script will also trigger.
While at it, as Dscho suggests, rewrite the WARNING: label on the

ci: skip unavailable external software
The ci/install-dependencies.sh script used in a very early phase of
our CI jobs downloads Perforce, Git-LFS, and JGit, used for running
the test scripts. The test framework is prepared to properly skip
the tests that depend on these external software, but the CI script
is unnecessarily strict (due to its use of "set -e" in ci/lib.sh)
and fails the entire CI run before even starting to test the rest of
the system.
Notice a failure to download to any of these external software, but
keep going. We need to be careful about cleaning after a failed
wget, as a later part of the script that does:
if type jgit >/dev/null 2>&1
then
echo "$(tput setaf 6)JGit Version$(tput sgr0)"
jgit version
else
echo >&2 "WARNING: JGit wasn't installed, see above for clues why"
fi
will (surprise!) succeed running "type jgit", and then fail with
"jgit version", taking the whole thing down due to "set -e".

The image pointed to by the fedora:latest tag has moved from fedora
41 to 42. The fedora 41 container images have awk installed while
the fedora 42 images do not. That change is most likely just part
of reducing the size of the base container images.
In both AlmaLinux and Fedora (as well as other RHEL
derivatives/relatives), awk is provided by the gawk package.
On Fedora, `dnf install awk` would work, by using the package
filelist data to determine that /usr/bin/awk is provided by gawk and
installs gawk as a result.
On AlmaLinux (8 & 9, by quick testing by Todd), that is not the case
and you'd need to use `dnf install gawk` or `dnf install '*bin/awk'`
to get it installed. Having said that, awk _is_ included in the
current AlmaLinux 8 and 9 images, so it isn't strictly needed. But
it's probably better to be explicit that we need it installed, as a
defense against some future change to the AlmaLinux container
removing awk.
Because we know that on both of these distros, our scripts that call
for 'awk' had been using 'gawk' that was installed as part of the
base image, let's make sure that we explicitly install 'gawk'. If
the image already has it, it would be a no-op that does not cause
breakage.

The code paths to interact with zlib has been cleaned up in

We don't yet have any test coverage for the new zlib-ng backend as part

Meson to pick it up automatically.
Note that we are somewhat limited with regards to where we run that job:
Debian-based distributions don't have zlib-ng in their repositories,
Fedora has it but doesn't run tests, and Alma Linux doesn't have the
package either. Alpine Linux does have it available and is running our
test suite, which is why it was picked.

Switch over the "linux-musl" job to use Meson instead of Makefiles. This
is done due to multiple reasons:
- It simplifies our CI infrastructure a bit as we don't have to
manually specify a couple of build options anymore.
- It verifies that Meson detects and sets those build options
automatically.
- It makes it easier for us to wire up a new CI job using zlib-ng as
backend.
One platform compatibility that Meson cannot easily detect automatically
is the `GIT_TEST_UTF8_LOCALE` variable used in tests. Wire up a build
option for it, which we set via a new "MESONFLAGS" environment variable.
Note that we also drop the CC variable, which is set to "gcc". We
already default to GCC when CC is unset in "ci/lib.sh", so this is not
needed.

major Linux distributions. To do that, let's add CI jobs for the oldest
regular (non-extended) LTS versions of the major distributions: Ubuntu
20.04, Debian 11, and RHEL 8. Because RHEL isn't available to the

CI updates
* jk/ci-linux32-update:
ci: add Ubuntu 16.04 job to GitLab CI
ci: use regular action versions for linux32 job
ci: use more recent linux32 image
ci: unify ubuntu and ubuntu32 dependencies
ci: drop run-docker scripts
In the preceding commits we had to convert the linux32 job to be based
on Ubuntu 20.04 instead of Ubuntu 16.04 due to a limitation in GitHub
Workflows. This was the only job left that still tested against this old
but supported Ubuntu version, and we have no other jobs that test with a
comparatively old Linux distribution.
Add a new job to GitLab CI that tests with Ubuntu 16.04 to cover the
resulting test gap. GitLab doesn't modify Docker images in the same way
GitHub does and thus doesn't fall prey to the same issue. There are two
compatibility issues uncovered by this:
- Ubuntu 16.04 does not support HTTP/2 in Apache. We thus cannot set
`GIT_TEST_HTTPD=true`, which would otherwise cause us to fail when
Apache fails to start.
- Ubuntu 16.04 cannot use recent JGit versions as they depend on a
more recent Java runtime than we have available. We thus disable
installing any kind of optional dependencies that do not come from
the package manager.
These two restrictions are fine though, as we only really care about
whether Git compiles and runs on such old distributions in the first
place.

The Xenial image we're using was released more than 8 years ago. This is
a problem for using some recent GitHub Actions scripts, as they require
Node.js 20, and all of the binaries they ship need glibc 2.28 or later.
We're not using them yet, but moving forward prepares us for a future
patch which will.
Xenial was actually the last official 32-bit Ubuntu release, but you can
still find i386 images for more recent releases. This patch uses Focal,
which was released in 2020 (and is the oldest one with glibc 2.28).
There are two small downsides here:
- while Xenial is pretty old, it is still in LTS support until April
2026. So there's probably some value in testing with such an old
system, and we're losing that.
- there are no i386 subversion packages in the Focal repository. So we
won't be able to test that (OTOH, we had never tested it until the
previous patch which unified the 32/64-bit dependency code).

The script to install dependencies has two separate entries for 32-bit
and 64-bit Ubuntu systems. This increases the maintenance burden since
both should need roughly the same packages.
That hasn't been too bad so far because we've stayed on the same 32-bit
image since 2017. Trying to move to a newer image revealed several
problems with the linux32 job:
- newer images complain about using "linux32 --32bit i386", due to
seccomp restrictions. We can loosen these with a docker option, but
I don't think running it is even doing anything. We use it only for
pretending to "apt" that we're on a 32-bit machine, but inside the
container image apt is already configured as a 32-bit system (even
though the kernel outside the container is obviously 64-bit). Using
the same apt invocation for both architectures just gets rid of this
call entirely.
- we set DEBIAN_FRONTEND to avoid hanging on packages that ask the
user questions. This wasn't a problem on the old image, but it is on
newer ones. The 64-bit stanza handles this already.
As a bonus, the 64-bit stanza uses "apt -q" instead of redirecting
output to /dev/null. This would have saved me a lot of debugging
time trying to figure out why it was hanging. :)
- the old image seems to have zlib-dev installed by default, but newer
ones do not.
In addition, there were probably many tests being skipped on the 32-bit
build because we didn't have support packages installed (e.g., gpg). Now
we'll run them.
We do need to keep some parts split off just for 64-bit systems: our p4
and lfs installs reference x86_64/amd64 binaries. The downloaded jgit
should work in theory, since it's just a jar file embedded in a shell
script that relies on the system java. But the system java in our image
is too old, so I've left it as 64-bit only for now.

We don't run style checks on our CI, even though we have a
'.clang-format' setup in the repository. Let's add one, the job will
validate only against the new commits added and will only run on merge
requests. Since we're introducing it for the first time, let's allow
this job to fail, so we can validate if this is useful and eventually
enforce it.
For GitHub, we allow the job to pass by adding 'continue-on-error: true'
to the workflow. This means the job would show as passed, even if the
style check failed. To know the status of the job, users have to
manually check the logs.
For GitLab, we allow the job to pass by adding 'allow_failure: true', to
the job. Unlike GitHub, here the job will show as failed with a yellow
warning symbol, but the pipeline would still show as passed.
Also for GitLab, we use the 'CI_MERGE_REQUEST_TARGET_BRANCH_SHA'

is only available for merged pipelines [1]). Otherwise we use the
'CI_MERGE_REQUEST_DIFF_BASE_SHA' variable.

reason unrelated to missing TTYs.

worry about the DNS or network between the GitHub CI and perforce.com
being MitM'd, but using https gives us extra validation of the payload
at least, and is one less thing to worry about when checking where
else we rely on non-TLS'd http connections.
Also, use the same download site at perforce.com for Linux and macOS
tarballs for consistency.

5ed9fc3fc8 (ci: prevent `perforce` from being quarantined, 2020-02-27)
introduces this prevention for brew, but brew has been removed in a
previous commit, so reintroduce an equivalent option to avoid a possible
regression.
This doesn't affect github actions (as configure now) and is therefore
done silently to avoid any possible scary irrelevant messages.

Perfoce's cask in brew is meant[1] to be used only by humans, so replace
its use from the CI with a scripted binary download which is less likely
to fail, as it is done in Linux.
Kept the logic together so it will be less likely to break when moved
around as on the fly code changes in this area are settled, at which
point it will also feasable to ammend it to avoid some of the hardcoded
values by using similar variables to the ones Linux does.
In that same line, a POSIX sh syntax is used instead of the similar one
used in Linux in preparation for an unrelated future change that might
change the shell currently configured for it.
This change reintroduces the risk that the installed binaries might not
work because of being quarantined that was fixed with 5ed9fc3fc8 (ci:
prevent `perforce` from being quarantined, 2020-02-27) but fixing that
now was also punted for simplicity and since the affected cloud provider
is scheduled to be retired with an on the fly change, but should be
addressed if that other change is not integrated further.
The discussion on the need to keep 2 radically different versions of
the binaries to be tested with Linux vs macOS or how to upgrade to
newer versions now that brew won't do that automatically for us has
been punted for now as well. On that line the now obsolete comment
about it in lib.sh was originally being updated by this change but
created conflicts as it is moved around by other on the fly changes,
so will be addressed independently as well.

In preparation for a future change that will make perforce installation
optional in macOS, make sure that the check for it is done without
triggering scary looking errors and add a user friendly message instead.
All other existing uses of 'type <cmd>' in our shell scripts that
check the availability of a command <cmd> send both standard output
and error stream to /dev/null to squelch "<cmd> not found" diagnostic
output, but this script left the standard error stream shown.
Redirect it just like everybody else to squelch this error message that
we fully expect to see.

Change the setup hooks for the CI to use "$runs_on_pool" for the
"$regular" job. Now we won't need as much boilerplate when adding new
jobs to the "regular" matrix, see 956d2e4639 (tests: add a test mode
for SANITIZE=leak, run it in CI, 2021-09-23) for the last such commit.
I.e. now instead of needing to enumerate each jobname when we select
packages we can install things depending on the pool we're running
in.
That we didn't do this dates back to the now gone dependency on Travis
CI, but even if we add a new CI target in the future this'll be easier
to port over, since we can probably treat "ubuntu-latest" as a
stand-in for some recent Linux that can run "apt" commands.

Remove support for running the CI in travis. The last builds in it are
from 5 months ago[1] (as of 2021-11-19), and our documentation has
referred to GitHub CI instead since f003a91f5c (SubmittingPatches:
replace discussion of Travis with GitHub Actions, 2021-07-22).
We'll now run the "t9810 t9816" and tests on OSX. We didn't before, as
we'd carried the Travis exclusion of them forward from
522354d70f (Add Travis CI support, 2015-11-27). Let's hope whatever
issue there was with them was either Travis specific, or fixed since
then (I'm not sure).
The "apt-add-repository" invocation (which we were doing in GitHub CI)
isn't needed, it was another Travis-only case that was carried forward
into more general code. See 0f0c51181d (travis-ci: install packages
in 'ci/install-dependencies.sh', 2018-11-01).
Remove the "linux-gcc-4.8" job added in fb9d7431cf (travis-ci: build
with GCC 4.8 as well, 2019-07-18), it only ran in Travis CI.
