"git name-rev --stdin" has been fixed to convert an object name that
points at a tag to a refname of the tag. The codepath to handle its
command line arguments, however, fed the commit that the tag points
at to the underlying naming machinery.
With this fix, you will get this:
$ git name-rev --refs=tags/\* --name-only $(git rev-parse v1.8.3 v1.8.3^0)
v1.8.3
v1.8.3^0
which is the same as what you would get from the fixed "--stdin" variant:
$ git rev-parse v1.8.3 v1.8.3^0 | git name-rev --refs=tags/\* --name-only
v1.8.3
v1.8.3^0

Instead of using a hand allocated args[] array, use argv-array API
to manage the dynamically created list of arguments when invoking
name-rev.

"git name-rev" is supposed to convert given object names into
strings that name the same objects based on refs, that can be fed to
"git rev-parse" to get the same object names back, so the output for
the commit object v1.8.3^0 (i.e. the commit tagged as v1.8.3)
$ git rev-parse v1.8.3 v1.8.3^0 | git name-rev --stdin
8af06057d0edca415256 (tags/v1.8.3^0)
has to have "^0" at the end, as "edca41" is a commit, not the tag
that references it. But we do not get anything for the tag object
(8af0605) itself.
This is because the command however did not bother to see if the
object is at the tip of some ref, and failed to convert a tag
object.
Teach it to show this instead:
$ git rev-parse v1.8.3 v1.8.3^0 | git name-rev --stdin
8af06057d0 (tags/v1.8.3)
edca415256 (tags/v1.8.3^0)

"git name-rev --refs=tags/v*" were forbidden, which was a bit
inconvenient (you had to give a pattern to match refs fully, like
--refs=refs/tags/v*).

Cloning with "git clone --depth N" while fetch.fsckobjects (or
transfer.fsckobjects) is set to true did not tell the cut-off points
of the shallow history to the process that validates the objects and
the history received, causing the validation to fail.

Recent "rebase --autostash" update made it impossible to recover
