In a future commit we are going to check if some strings contain
control characters, so let's refactor the logic to do that in a new
has_control_char() helper function.
It cleans up the code a bit anyway.

A previous commit made sure we now reject empty URLs early at parse
time. This makes the existing warning() in case a remote URL is NULL
or empty very unlikely to be useful.
In future work, we also plan to add URL-based acceptance logic into
should_accept_remote().
To adapt to previous changes and prepare for upcoming changes, let's
restructure the control flow in should_accept_remote().
Concretely, let's:
- Replace the warning() in case of an empty URL with a BUG(), as a
previous commit made sure empty URLs are rejected early at parse
time.
- Move that modified empty-URL check to the very top of the function,
so that every acceptance mode, instead of only ACCEPT_KNOWN_URL, is
covered.
- Invert the URL comparison: instead of returning on match and
warning on mismatch, return early on mismatch and let the match
case fall through. This opens a single exit path at the bottom of
the function for future commits to extend.

In parse_one_advertised_remote(), we check for a NULL remote name and
remote URL, but not for empty ones. An empty URL seems possible as
url_percent_decode("") doesn't return NULL.
In promisor_config_info_list(), we ignore remotes with empty URLs, so a
Git server should not advertise remotes with empty URLs. It's possible
that a buggy or malicious server would do it though.
So let's tighten the check in parse_one_advertised_remote() to also
reject empty strings at parse time.

In should_accept_remote() and parse_one_advertised_remote(), when a
remote is ignored, we tell users why it is ignored in a warning, but we
don't tell them that the remote is actually ignored.
Let's clarify that, so users have a better idea of what's actually
happening.

The `in_list == 0` path of all_fields_match() looks up the remote in
`config_info` by `advertised->name` repeatedly, even though every
caller in should_accept_remote() has already performed this
lookup and holds the result in `p`.
To avoid this useless work, let's replace the `int in_list`
parameter with a `struct promisor_info *config_entry` pointer:
- When NULL (ACCEPT_ALL mode): scan the whole `config_info` list, as
the old `in_list == 1` path did.
- When non-NULL: match against that single config entry directly,
avoiding the redundant string_list_lookup() call.
This removes the hidden dependency on `advertised->name` inside
all_fields_match(), which would be wrong if in the future
auto-configured remotes are implemented, as the local config name may
differ from the server's advertised name.
While at it, let's also add a comment before all_fields_match() and
match_field_against_config() to help understand how things work and
help avoid similar issues.

When a server advertises promisor remotes and the client accepts some
of them, those remotes carry the server's intent: 'fetch missing
objects preferably from here', and the client agrees with that for the
remotes it accepts.
However promisor_remote_get_direct() actually iterates over all
promisor remotes in list order, which is the order they appear in the
config files (except perhaps for the one appearing in the
`extensions.partialClone` config variable which is tried last).
This means an existing, but not accepted, promisor remote, could be
tried before the accepted ones, which does not reflect the intent of
the agreement between client and server.
If the client doesn't care about what the server suggests, it should
accept nothing and rely on its remotes as they are already configured.
To better reflect the agreement between client and server, let's make
promisor_remote_get_direct() try the accepted promisor remotes before
the non-accepted ones.
Concretely, let's extract a try_promisor_remotes() helper and call it
twice from promisor_remote_get_direct():
- first with an `accepted_only=true` argument to try only the accepted
remotes,
- then with `accepted_only=false` to fall back to any remaining remote.
Ensuring that accepted remotes are preferred will be even more
important if in the future a mechanism is developed to allow the
client to auto-configure remotes that the server advertises. This will
in particular avoid fetching from the server (which is already
configured as a promisor remote) before trying the auto-configured
remotes, as these new remotes would likely appear at the end of the
config file, and as the server might not appear in the
`extensions.partialClone` config variable.

Commit f697d08 (gitk: i18n: use "Gitk" as package name in POT file,
2026-03-19) updated the generated POT template to use "Gitk" in its
Project-Id-Version header. Several existing PO files still carry older
header values such as "git" or "git-gui", so they do not consistently
identify themselves as Gitk translations.
Update the Project-Id-Version field in all Gitk PO files so that they
identify the Gitk project consistently.
The "Project-Id-Version" field in the PO header helps tools identify
which project a PO file belongs to. For example, Git's
"git-po-helper" uses it to choose project-specific checks and POT
handling rules. Without this change, some Gitk PO files are
misidentified because their headers still refer to other projects.
