When generating the list of packs to store in a MIDX (when given the
`--write-midx` option), we include any cruft packs both during
--geometric and non-geometric repacks.
But the rules for when we do and don't have to check whether any of
those cruft packs were queued for deletion differ slightly between the
two cases.
But the two can be unified, provided there is a little bit of extra
detail added in the comment to clarify when it is safe to avoid checking
for any pending deletions (and why it is OK to do so even when not
required).

The `->util` field corresponding to each string_list_item is used to
track the existence of some pack at the beginning of a repack operation
was originally intended to be used as a bitfield.
This bitfield tracked:
- (1 << 0): whether or not the pack should be deleted
- (1 << 1): whether or not the pack is cruft
The previous commit removed the use of the second bit, but a future
patch (from a different series than this one) will introduce a new use
of it.
So we could stop treating the util pointer as a bitfield and instead
start treating it as if it were a boolean. But this would require some
backtracking when that later patch is applied.
Instead, let's avoid touching the ->util field directly, and instead
introduce convenience functions like:
- pack_mark_for_deletion()
- pack_is_marked_for_deletion()

When repacking with the `--write-midx` option, we invoke the function
`midx_included_packs()` in order to produce the list of packs we want to
include in the resulting MIDX.
This list is comprised of:
- existing .keep packs
- any pack(s) which were written earlier in the same process
- any unchanged packs when doing a `--geometric` repack
- any cruft packs
Prior to this patch, we stored pre-existing cruft and non-cruft packs
together (provided those packs are non-kept). This meant we needed an
additional bit to indicate which non-kept pack(s) were cruft versus
those that aren't.
But alternatively we can store cruft packs in a separate list, avoiding
the need for this extra bit, and simplifying the code below.

When there is:
- at least one pre-existing packfile (which is not marked as kept),
- repacking with the `-d` flag, and
- not doing a cruft repack
, then we pass a handful of additional options to the inner
`pack-objects` process, like `--unpack-unreachable`,
`--keep-unreachable`, and `--pack-loose-unreachable`, in addition to
marking any packs we just wrote for promisor remotes as kept in-core
(with `--keep-pack`, as opposed to the presence of a ".keep" file on
disk).
Because we store both cruft and non-cruft packs together in the same
`existing.non_kept_packs` list, it suffices to check its `nr` member to
see if it is zero or not.
But a following change will store cruft- and non-cruft packs separately,
meaning this check would break as a result. Prepare for this by
extracting this part of the check into a new helper function called
`has_existing_non_kept_packs()`.
This patch does not introduce any functional changes, but prepares us to
make a more isolated change in a subsequent patch.

To remove redundant packs at the end of a repacking operation, Git uses
its `remove_redundant_pack()` function in a loop over the set of
pre-existing, non-kept packs.
In a later commit, we will split this list into two, one for
pre-existing cruft pack(s), and another for non-cruft pack(s). Prepare
for this by factoring out the routine to loop over and delete redundant
packs into its own function.
Instead of calling `remove_redundant_pack()` directly, we now will call
`remove_redundant_existing_packs()`, which itself dispatches a call to
`remove_redundant_packs_1()`. Note that the geometric repacking code
will still call `remove_redundant_pack()` directly, but see the previous
commit for more details.
Having `remove_redundant_packs_1()` exist as a separate function may
seem like overkill in this patch. However, a later patch will call
`remove_redundant_packs_1()` once over two separate lists, so this
refactoring sets us up for that.

At the end of a repack (when given `-d`), Git attempts to remove any
packs which have been made "redundant" as a result of the repacking
operation. For example, an all-into-one (`-A` or `-a`) repack makes
every pre-existing pack which is not marked as kept redundant. Geometric
repacks (with `--geometric=<n>`) make any packs which were rolled up
redundant, and so on.
But before deleting the set of packs we think are redundant, we first
check to see whether or not we just wrote a pack which is identical to
any one of the packs we were going to delete. When this is the case, Git
must avoid deleting that pack, since it matches a pack we just wrote
(so deleting it may cause the repository to become corrupt).
Right now we only process the list of non-kept packs in a single pass.
But a future change will split the existing non-kept packs further into
two lists: one for cruft packs, and another for non-cruft packs.
Factor out this routine to prepare for calling it twice on two separate
lists in a future patch.

The repack machinery needs to keep track of which packfiles were present
in the repository at the beginning of a repack, segmented by whether or
not each pack is marked as kept.
The names of these packs are stored in two `string_list`s, corresponding
to kept- and non-kept packs, respectively. As a consequence, many
functions within the repack code need to take both `string_list`s as
arguments, leading to code like this:
ret = write_cruft_pack(&cruft_po_args, packtmp, pack_prefix,
cruft_expiration, &names,
&existing_nonkept_packs, /* <- */
&existing_kept_packs); /* <- */
Wrap up this pair of `string_list`s into a single structure that stores
both. This saves us from having to pass both string lists separately,
and prepares for adding additional fields to this structure.

The purpose of the test is to ensure that
(i) There are no uncommitted changes when the editor runs. i.e., we
commit without running the editor and then reword by amending
that commit. This ensures that we have the same user experience
whether or not the commit was fast-forwarded [1].
(ii) That the todo list is re-read after the commit has been reworded.
This is to allow the user to update the todo list while the rebase
is paused for editing the commit message.

When running in the Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL), it is usually
necessary to use the Git Credential Manager for authentication when
performing the background fetches.
This requires interoperability between the Windows Subsystem for Linux
and the Windows host to work, which uses so-called vsocks, i.e. sockets
intended for communcations between virtual machines and the host they
are running on.
However, when Git is configured to run background maintenance via
`systemd`, the address families available to those maintenance processes
are restricted, and did not include `AF_VSOCK`. This leads to problems
e.g. when a background fetch tries to access github.com:

When rebasing commands are moved from the todo list in "git-rebase-todo"
to the "done" file (which is used by "git status" to show the recently
executed commands) just before they are executed. This means that if a
command fails because it would overwrite an untracked file it has to be
added back into the todo list before the rebase stops for the user to
fix the problem.
Unfortunately when a failed command is added back into the todo list the
command preceding it is erroneously appended to the "done" file. This
means that when rebase stops after "pick B" fails the "done" file
contains
pick A
pick B
pick A
instead of
pick A
pick B
This happens because save_todo() updates the "done" file with the
previous command whenever "git-rebase-todo" is updated. When we add the
failed pick back into "git-rebase-todo" we do not want to update
"done". Fix this by adding a "reschedule" parameter to save_todo() which
prevents the "done" file from being updated when adding a failed command
back into the "git-rebase-todo" file. A couple of the existing tests are
modified to improve their coverage as none of them trigger this bug or
check the "done" file.

If a commit cannot be picked because it would overwrite an untracked
file then "git rebase --continue" should refuse to commit any staged
changes as the commit was not picked. This is implemented by refusing to
commit if the message file is missing. The message file is chosen for
this check because it is only written when "git rebase" stops for the
user to resolve merge conflicts.
Existing commands that refuse to commit staged changes when continuing
such as a failed "exec" rely on checking for the absence of the author
script in run_git_commit(). This prevents the staged changes from being
committed but prints
error: could not open '.git/rebase-merge/author-script' for
reading
before the message about not being able to commit. This is confusing to
users and so checking for the message file instead improves the user
experience. The existing test for refusing to commit after a failed exec

git rebase keeps a list that maps the OID of each commit before it was
rebased to the OID of the equivalent commit after the rebase. This list
is used to drive the "post-rewrite" hook that is called at the end of a
successful rebase. When a rebase stops for the user to resolve merge
conflicts the OID of the commit being picked is written to
".git/rebase-merge/stopped-sha". Then when the rebase is continued that
OID is added to the list of rewritten commits. Unfortunately if a commit
cannot be picked because it would overwrite an untracked file we still
write the "stopped-sha1" file. This means that when the rebase is
continued the commit is added into the list of rewritten commits even
though it has not been picked yet.
Fix this by not calling error_with_patch() for failed commands. The pick
has failed so there is nothing to commit and therefore we do not want to
set up the state files for committing staged changes when the rebase
continues. This change means we no-longer write a patch for the failed
command or display the error message printed by error_with_patch(). As
the command has failed the patch isn't really useful and in any case the
user can inspect the commit associated with the failed command by
inspecting REBASE_HEAD. Unless the user has disabled it we already print
an advice message that is more helpful than the message from
error_with_patch() which the user will still see. Even if the advice is
disabled the user will see the messages from the merge machinery
detailing the problem.
The code to add a failed command back into the todo list is duplicated
between pick_one_commit() and the loop in pick_commits(). Both sites
print advice about the command being rescheduled, decrement the current
item and save the todo list. To avoid duplicating this code
pick_one_commit() is modified to set a flag to indicate that the command
should be rescheduled in the main loop. This simplifies things as only
the remaining copy of the code needs to be modified to set REBASE_HEAD
rather than calling error_with_patch().

This simplifies the next commit. If a pick fails we now return the error
at the end of the loop body rather than returning early, a successful
"edit" command continues to return early. There are three things to
check to ensure that removing the early return for an error does not
change the behavior of the code:
(1) We could enter the block guarded by "if (reschedule)". This block
is not entered because "reschedlue" is always zero when picking a
commit.
(2) We could enter the block guarded by
"else if (is_rebase_i(opts) && check_todo && !res)". This block is
not entered when returning an error because "res" is non-zero in
that case.
(3) todo_list->current could be incremented before returning. That is
avoided by moving the increment which is of course a potential
change in behavior itself. The move is safe because none of the
callers look at todo_list after this function returns. Moving the
increment makes it clear we only want to advance the current item
if the command was successful.

When a rebase stops for the user to resolve conflicts it writes a patch
for the conflicting commit to .git/rebase-merge/patch. This file has
been written since the introduction of "git-rebase-interactive.sh" in
1b1dce4bae (Teach rebase an interactive mode, 2007-06-25). I assume the
idea was to enable the user inspect the conflicting commit in the same
way as they could for the patch based rebase. This file should be
deleted when the rebase continues as if the rebase stops for a failed
"exec" command or a "break" command it is confusing to the user if there
is a stale patch lying around from an unrelated command. As the path is
now used in two different places rebase_path_patch() is added and used
to obtain the path for the patch.
To construct the path write_patch() previously used get_dir() which
returns different paths depending on whether we're rebasing or
cherry-picking/reverting. As this function is only called when
rebasing it is safe to use a hard coded string for the directory
instead. An assertion is added to make sure we don't starting calling
this function when cherry-picking in the future.

When formatted as man-page, the section title is rendered
"GENERATING PATCH TEXT WITH -P" whereas reference still reads
"Generating patch text with -p", that is inconsistent and makes
searching harder than it needs to be.
Fix this by getting rid of custom reference text.
Also, documentation for every command that describes `-p` option by
including the "diff-options.txt" file does include the
"diff-generate-patch.txt" file as well (as it should), so the internal
link is in fact useful for any of them.
Fix this by getting rid of conditionals around the reference.
Fixes: ebdc46c242 (docs: link generating patch sections)

The code introduced in 576a37fccb (var: add attributes files locations,
2023-06-27) paid careful attention to use `xstrdup()` for pointers known
never to be `NULL`, and `xstrdup_or_null()` otherwise.
One spot was missed, though: `git_attr_global_file()` can return `NULL`,
when the `HOME` variable is not set (and neither `XDG_CONFIG_HOME`), a
scenario not too uncommon in certain server scenarios.
Fix this, and add a test case to avoid future regressions.
