Back in 233c3e6 (parse_pathspec: preserve prefix length via
PATHSPEC_PREFIX_ORIGIN - 2013-07-14), parse_pathspec() is taught to
save prefix length as a dynamic magic. This is needed when the
pathspec is passed to another process and and prefix lenght would be
lost.
Back then we support two cases. If the pathspec is normal, e.g. "abc",
we simply add the prefix to become ":(prefix:2)abc". If the pathspec
contains long magic, e.g. ":(foo,bar)abc" then we turn it to
":(foo,bar,prefix:2)abc". We do not support prefixing on short form,
because the only supported mnemonic '/' disappears after the the
preprocessing steps.
With the introduction of exclude magic with mnemonic '!', we need to
add support for the short form case so that ':!abc' becomes
':(exclude,prefix:2)abc'. Without this, it will break

existing uses of the prefixcmp() and suffixcmp() with new API

The change can be recreated by mechanically applying this:

Normally parse_pathspec() is used on command line arguments where it
can do fancy thing like parsing magic on each argument or adding magic
for all pathspecs based on --*-pathspecs options.
There's another use of parse_pathspec(), where pathspec is needed, but
the input is known to be pure paths. In this case we usually don't
want --*-pathspecs to interfere. And we definitely do not want to
parse magic in these paths, regardless of --literal-pathspecs.
Add new flag PATHSPEC_LITERAL_PATH for this purpose. When it's set,
--*-pathspecs are ignored, no magic is parsed. And if the caller
allows PATHSPEC_LITERAL (i.e. the next calls can take literal magic),
then PATHSPEC_LITERAL will be set.
This fixes cases where git chokes when GIT_*_PATHSPECS are set because
parse_pathspec() indicates it won't take any magic. But
GIT_*_PATHSPECS add them anyway. These are
export GIT_LITERAL_PATHSPECS=1
git blame -- something
git log --follow something
git log --merge
"git ls-files --with-tree=path" (aka parse_pathspec() in
overlay_tree_on_cache()) is safe because the input is empty, and
producing one pathspec due to PATHSPEC_PREFER_CWD does not take any
magic into account.

:(prefix) is in the long form. Suppose people pass :!foo with '!'
being the short form of magic 'bar', the code will happily turn it to
:(prefix..)!foo, which makes '!' part of the path and no longer a magic.
The correct form must be ':(prefix..,bar)foo', but as so far we
haven't had any magic in short form yet (*), the code to convert from
short form to long one will be inactive anyway. Let's postpone it
until a real short form magic appears.
(*) The short form magic '/' is a special case and won't be caught by
this die(), which is correct. When '/' magic is detected, prefixlen is
set back to 0 and the whole "if (prefixlen..)" block is skipped.

:(glob)path differs from plain pathspec that it uses wildmatch with
WM_PATHNAME while the other uses fnmatch without FNM_PATHNAME. The
difference lies in how '*' (and '**') is processed.
With the introduction of :(glob) and :(literal) and their global
options --[no]glob-pathspecs, the user can:
- make everything literal by default via --noglob-pathspecs
--literal-pathspecs cannot be used for this purpose as it
disables _all_ pathspec magic.
- individually turn on globbing with :(glob)
- make everything globbing by default via --glob-pathspecs
- individually turn off globbing with :(literal)
The implication behind this is, there is no way to gain the default
matching behavior (i.e. fnmatch without FNM_PATHNAME). You either get
new globbing or literal. The old fnmatch behavior is considered
deprecated and discouraged to use.

The prefix length is passed from one command to another via the new
magic 'prefix'. The magic is for parse_pathspec's internal use only,
not visible to parse_pathspec's callers.
Prefix length is not preserved across commands when --literal-pathspecs
is specified (no magic is allowed, including 'prefix'). That's OK
because we know all paths are literal. No magic, no special treatment
regarding prefix. (This may be no longer true if we make :(glob)
default)
Other options to preserve the prefix include saving it to env variable
or quoting. Env var way (at least _one_ env var) is not suitable
because the prefix is not the same for all pathspecs. Pathspecs
starting with "../" will eat into the prefix part.
We could also preserve 'prefix' across commands by quoting the prefix
part, then dequoting on receiving. But it may not be 100% accurate, we
may dequote longer than the original prefix part, for example. That
may be good or not, but it's not the purpose.

This makes 'original' suitable for passing to an external command
because all pathspec magic is left in place, provided that the
external command understands pathspec. The prefixing is needed because
we usually launch a subcommand at worktree's top directory and the
subcommand can no longer calculate the prefix itself.
This slightly affects the original purpose of 'original'
(i.e. reporting). We should report without prefixing. So only turn
this flag on when you know you are about to pass the result straight
away to an external command.

match_pathspec_depth() and tree_entry_interesting() check max_depth
field in order to support "git grep --max-depth". The feature
activation is tied to "recursive" field, which led to some unwanted
activation, e.g. 5c8eeb8 (diff-index: enable recursive pathspec
matching in unpack_trees - 2012-01-15).
This patch decouples the activation from "recursive" field, puts it in
"magic" field instead. This makes sure that only "git grep" can
activate this feature. And because parse_pathspec knows when the
feature is not used, it does not need to sort pathspec (required for
max_depth to work correctly). A small win for non-grep cases.
Even though a new magic flag is introduced, no magic syntax is. The
magic can be only enabled by parse_pathspec() caller. We might someday
want to support ":(maxdepth:10)src." It all depends on actual use
cases.
max_depth feature cannot be enabled via init_pathspec() anymore. But
that's ok because init_pathspec() is on its way to /dev/null.

We have two ways of dealing with empty pathspec:
1. limit it to current prefix
2. match the entire working directory
Some commands go with #1, some #2. get_pathspec() and parse_pathspec()
only support #1. Make parse_pathspec() reject empty pathspec by
default. #1 and #2 can be specified via new flags. This makes it more
expressive about default behavior at command level.

Currently to fill a struct pathspec, we do:
const char **paths;
paths = get_pathspec(prefix, argv);
...
init_pathspec(&pathspec, paths);
"paths" can only carry bare strings, which loses information from
command line arguments such as pathspec magic or the prefix part's
length for each argument.
parse_pathspec() is introduced to combine the two calls into one. The
plan is gradually replace all get_pathspec() and init_pathspec() with
parse_pathspec(). get_pathspec() now becomes a thin wrapper of
parse_pathspec().
parse_pathspec() allows the caller to reject the pathspec magics that
it does not support. When a new pathspec magic is introduced, we can
enable it per command after making sure that all underlying code has no
problem with the new magic.
"flags" parameter is currently unused. But it would allow callers to
pass certain instructions to parse_pathspec, for example forcing
literal pathspec when no magic is used.
With the introduction of parse_pathspec, there are now two functions
that can initialize struct pathspec: init_pathspec and
parse_pathspec. Any semantic changes in struct pathspec must be
reflected in both functions. init_pathspec() will be phased out in
favor of parse_pathspec().

Because free_pathspec wants to free "items" pointer in the pathspec
structure, a simple structure assignment is not enough if you want to
copy an existing pathspec into another. Freeing the original will
damage the copy unless a deep copy is made.
Note that the strings in pathspec->items->match and the array
pathspec->raw[] are still shared between the original and the copy.

I attempted to make index_state->cache[] a "const struct cache_entry **"
to find out how existing entries in index are modified and where. The
question I have is what do we do if we really need to keep track of on-disk
changes in the index. The result is
- diff-lib.c: setting CE_UPTODATE
- name-hash.c: setting CE_HASHED
- preload-index.c, read-cache.c, unpack-trees.c and
builtin/update-index: obvious
- entry.c: write_entry() may refresh the checked out entry via
fill_stat_cache_info(). This causes "non-const struct cache_entry
*" in builtin/apply.c, builtin/checkout-index.c and
builtin/checkout.c
- builtin/ls-files.c: --with-tree changes stagemask and may set
CE_UPDATE
Of these, write_entry() and its call sites are probably most
interesting because it modifies on-disk info. But this is stat info
and can be retrieved via refresh, at least for porcelain
commands. Other just uses ce_flags for local purposes.
So, keeping track of "dirty" entries is just a matter of setting a
flag in index modification functions exposed by read-cache.c. Except
unpack-trees, the rest of the code base does not do anything funny
behind read-cache's back.
The actual patch is less valueable than the summary above. But if
anyone wants to re-identify the above sites. Applying this patch, then
this:
