The logic to set up and retrieve `git_namespace` is distributed across
different functions which communicate with each other via a global

When chainlint detects a problem in a test definition, it highlights the
offending code with a "?!...?!" annotation. The rather curious "?!"
decoration was chosen to draw the reader's attention to the problem area
and to act as a good "needle" when using the terminal's search feature
to "jump" to the next problem.
Later, chainlint learned to color its output when sent to a terminal.
Problem annotations are colored with a red background which stands out
well from surrounding text, thus easily draws the reader's attention.
Together with the preceding change which gave all problem annotations a
uniform "LINT:" prefix, the noisy "?!" decoration has become superfluous
as a search "needle" so omit it when output is colored.

The annotations emitted by chainlint to indicate detected problems are
overly terse, so much so that developers new to the project -- those who
should most benefit from the linting -- may find them baffling. For
instance, although the author of chainlint and seasoned Git developers
may understand that "?!AMP?!" is an abbreviation of "ampersand" and
indicates a break in the &&-chain, this may not be obvious to newcomers.
The "?!LOOP?!" case is particularly serious because that terse single
word does nothing to convey that the loop body should end with
"|| return 1" (or "|| exit 1" in a subshell) to ensure that a failing
command in the body aborts the loop immediately. Moreover, unlike
&&-chaining which is ubiquitous in Git tests, the "|| return 1" idiom is
relatively infrequent, thus may be harder for a newcomer to discover by
consulting nearby code.
Address these shortcomings by emitting human-readable messages which
both explain the problem and give a strong hint about how to correct it.

As originally implemented, chainlint did not collect structured
information about detected problems. Instead, it merely emitted raw
parse tokens (not the original test text), along with a "?!...?!"
annotation directly into the output stream each time a problem was
discovered. In order to report statistics (in --stats mode) and to
adjust its exit code to indicate success or failure, it merely counts
the number of times "?!...?!" appears in the output stream. An obvious
shortcoming of this approach is that it can be fooled by a legitimate
"?!...?!" sequence in the body of a test (though, only if an actual
problem is detected in the test).
The situation did not improve when 7c04aa7390 (chainlint: colorize
problem annotations and test delimiters, 2022-09-13) colored the
annotations after-the-fact by searching for "?!...?!" in the output
stream and inserting color codes. As above, a shortcoming is that this
approach can incorrectly color a legitimate "?!...?!" sequence in a test
body as if it is an error.
However, when 73c768dae9 (chainlint: annotate original test definition
rather than token stream, 2022-11-08) taught chainlint to output the
original test text verbatim, it started collecting structured
information about detected problems.
Now that it is available, take advantage of the structured problem
information to deterministically count the number of problems detected
and to color the annotations directly, rather than scanning the output
stream for "?!...?!" and performing these operations after-the-fact.

When parsing `%(if)` atoms we expect a few other atoms to exist to
complete it, like `%(then)` and `%(end)`. Whether or not we have seen
these other atoms is tracked in an allocated `if_then_else` structure,
which gets free'd by the `if_then_else_handler()` once we have parsed
the complete conditional expression.
This results in a memory leak when the `%(if)` atom is not terminated
correctly and thus incomplete. We never end up executing its handler and
thus don't end up freeing the structure.
Plug this memory leak by introducing a new `at_end_data_free` callback
function. If set, we'll execute it in `pop_stack_element()` and pass it
the `at_end_data` variable with the intent to free its state. Wire it up
for the `%(if)` atom accordingly.

After using the ref-filter API, callers should use ref_filter_clear() to
free any used memory. However, there's not a matching function to clear
the ref_format struct.
Traditionally this did not need to be cleaned up, as it was just a way
for the caller to store and pass format options as a single unit. Even
though the parsing step of some placeholders may allocate data, that's
usually inside their "used_atom" structs, which are part of the
ref_filter itself.
But a few placeholders keep data outside of there. The %(ahead-behind)
and %(is-base) parsers both keep a master list of bases, because they
perform a single filtering pass outside of the use of any particular
atom. And since the format parser does not have access to the ref_filter
struct, they store their cross-atom data in the ref_format struct
itself.
And thus when they are finished, the ref_format also needs to be cleaned
up. So let's add a function to do so, and call it from all of the users
of the ref-filter API.
The %(is-base) case is found by running LSan on t6300. After this patch,
the script can now be marked leak-free.

When we expand the %(upstream) or %(push) placeholders, we rely on
remote.c's remote_ref_for_branch() to fill in the ":refname" argument.
But that function has confusing memory ownership semantics: it may or
may not return an allocated string, depending on whether we are in
"upstream" mode or "push" mode. The caller in ref-filter.c always
duplicates the result, meaning that we leak the original in the case of
%(push:refname).
To solve this, let's make the return value from remote_ref_for_branch()
consistent, by always returning an allocated pointer. Note that the
switch to returning a non-const pointer has a ripple effect inside the
function, too. We were storing the "dst" result as a const pointer, too,
even though it is always allocated! It is the return value from
apply_refspecs(), which is always a non-const allocated string.
And then on the caller side in ref-filter.c (and this is the only caller
at all), we just need to avoid the extra duplication when the return
value is non-NULL.
This clears up one case that LSan finds in t6300, but there are more.

it's a little awkward, since we have to free each element of the array,

When we parse a placeholder like "%(trailers:key=foo)", our atom parsing
function is passed just the argument string "key=foo". We duplicate this
into its own string, but never free it, causing a leak.
We do the duplication for two reasons:
1. There's a mismatch with the pretty.c trailer-formatting code that
we rely on. It expects to see a closing paren, like "key=foo)". So
we duplicate the argument string with that extra character to pass
along.
This is probably something we could fix in the long run, but it's
somewhat non-trivial if we want to avoid regressing error cases for
things like "git log --format='%(trailer:oops'". So let's accept
it as a necessity for now.
2. The argument parser expects to store the list of "key" entries
("foo" in this case) in a string-list. It also stores the length of
the string in the string-list "util" field. The original caller in
pretty.c uses this with a "nodup" string list to avoid making extra
copies, which creates a subtle dependency on the lifetime of the
original format string.
We do the same here, which creates that same dependency. So we
can't simply free it as soon as the parsing is done.
There are two possible solutions here. The first is to hold on to the
duplicated "argbuf" string in the used_atom struct, so that it lives as
long as the string_list which references it.
But I think a less-subtle solution, and what this patch does, is to
switch to a duplicating string_list. That makes it self-contained, and
lets us free argbuf immediately. It may involve a few extra allocations,
but this parsing is something that happens once per program, not once
per output ref.
This clears up one case that LSan finds in t6300, but there are more.

The trailer API takes options via a trailer_opts struct. Some of those
options point to data structures which require extra storage. Those
structures aren't actually embedded in the options struct, but rather we
pass pointers, and the caller is responsible for managing them. This is
a little convoluted, but makes sense since some of them are not even
concrete (e.g., you can pass a filter function and a void data pointer,
but the trailer code doesn't even know what's in the pointer).
When for-each-ref, etc, parse the %(trailers) placeholder, they stuff
the extra data into a ref_trailer_buf struct. But we only hold a single
static global instance of this struct. So if a format string has
multiple %(trailer) placeholders, they'll stomp on each other: the "key"
list will end up with entries for all of them, and the separator buffers
will use the values from whichever was parsed last.
Instead, we should have a ref_trailer_buf for each instance of the
placeholder, and store it alongside the trailer_opts in the used_atom
structure.
And that's what this patch does. Note that we also have to add code to
clean them up in ref_array_clear(). The original code did not bother
cleaning them up, but it wasn't technically a "leak" since they were
still reachable from the static global instance.

To expand the "%(trailers)" placeholder, we have to feed the commit or
tag body to the trailer API. But that API doesn't know anything about
signatures, and will be confused by a signed tag like this:
the subject
the body
Some-trailer: foo
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE-----
...etc...
because it will start looking for trailers after the signature, and get
stopped walking backwards by the very non-trailer signature lines. So it
thinks there are no trailers.
This problem has existed since %(trailers) was added to the ref-filter
code, but back then trailers on tags weren't something we really
considered (commits don't have the same problem because their signatures
are embedded in the header). But since 066cef7707 (builtin/tag: add
--trailer option, 2024-05-05), we'd generate an object like the above
for "git tag -s --trailer 'Some-trailer: foo' my-tag".
The implementation here is pretty simple: we just make a NUL-terminated
copy of the non-signature part of the tag (which we've already parsed)
and pass it to the trailer API. There are some alternatives I rejected,
at least for now:
- the trailer code already understands skipping past some cruft at the
end of a commit, such as patch dividers. see find_end_of_log_message().
We could teach it to do the same for signatures. But since this is
the only context where we'd want that feature, and since we've already
parsed the object into subject/body/signature here, it seemed easier
to just pass in the truncated message.
- it would be nice if we could just pass in a pointer/len pair to the
trailer API (rather than a NUL-terminated string) to avoid the extra
copy. I think this is possible, since as noted above, the trailer
code already has to deal with ignoring some cruft at the end of the
input. But after an initial attempt at this, it got pretty messy, as
we have to touch a lot of intermediate functions that are also
called in other contexts.
So I went for the simple and stupid thing, at least for now. I don't
think the extra copy overhead will be all that bad. The previous
patch noted that an extra copy seemed to cause about 1-2% slowdown
for something simple like "%(subject)". But here we are only
triggering it for "%(trailers)" (and only when there is a
signature), and the trailer code is a bit allocation-heavy already.
I couldn't measure any difference formatting "%(trailers)" on
linux.git before and after (even though there are not even any
trailers to find).

When we know we're going to show the subject or body of a tag or commit,
we call find_subpos(), which returns pointers and lengths for the three
parts: subject, body, signature.
Oddly, the function finds the signature twice: once by calling
parse_signature() at the start, which copies the signature into a
separate strbuf, and then again by calling parse_signed_buffer() after
we've parsed past the subject.
This is due to 482c119186 (gpg-interface: improve interface for parsing
tags, 2021-02-11) and 88bce0e24c (ref-filter: hoist signature parsing,
2021-02-11). The idea is that in a multi-hash world, tag signatures may
appear in the header, rather than at the end of the body, in which case
we need to extract them into a separate buffer.
But parse_signature() would never find such a buffer! It only looks for
signature lines (like "-----BEGIN PGP") at the start of each line,
without any header keyword. So this code will never find anything except
the usual in-body signature.
And the extra code has two downsides:
1. We spend time copying the payload and signature into strbufs. That
might even be useful if we ended up with a NUL-terminated copy of
the payload data, but we throw it away immediately. And the
signature, since it comes at the end of the message, is already its
own NUL-terminated buffer.
The overhead isn't huge, but I measured a pretty consistent 1-2%
speedup running "git for-each-ref --format='%(subject)'" with this
patch on a clone of linux.git.
2. The output of find_subpos() is a set of three ptr/len combinations,
but only two of them point into the original buffer. This makes the
interface confusing: you can't do pointer comparisons between them,
and you have to remember to free the signature buffer. Since
there's only one caller, it's not too bad in practice, but it did
bite me while working on the next patch (and simplifying it will
pave the way for that).
In the long run we might have to go back to something like this
approach, if we do have multi-hash header signatures. But I would argue
that the extra buffer should kick in only for a header signature, and be
passed out of find_subpos() separately.

The latter method is undesired because there can exist unequal ref

If neither HAVE_DEV_TTY nor GIT_WINDOWS_NATIVE is set, while compiling

getpass() function. Unfortunately, this ignores the 'echo' parameter of
the git_terminal_prompt() function, since it has no way to implement that

cygwin, which does not define either of those build flags.
However, cygwin does have a functional '/dev/tty', so that it can build

The read_key_without_echo() function leads to a much improved 'git add -p'
command, when the 'interactive.singleKey' configuration is set:
$ cd ..
$ mkdir test-git
$ cd test-git
$ git init -q
$ echo foo >file
$ git add file
$ echo bar >file
$ ../git/git -c interactive.singleKey=true add -p
diff --git a/file b/file

(1/1) Stage this hunk [y,n,q,a,d,e,p,?]? y

Note that, not only is the user input echoed, but that it is immediately
accepted (without having to type <return>) and the program exits with the
hunk staged (in this case) or not.
In order to reap these benefits, set the HAVE_DEV_TTY build flag in the
cygwin configuration section of config.mak.uname.

Git's tempfile API defined by $GIT_DIR/tempfile.{c,h} provides
a unified interface for tempfile operations. Since reftable/stack.c
uses this API for all its tempfile needs instead of raw functions
like mkstemp(), make the ported stack test strictly use Git's
tempfile API as well.
A bigger benefit is the fact that we know to clean up the tempfile
in case the test fails because it gets registered and pruned via a
signal handler.

Harmonize the newly ported test unit-tests/t-reftable-stack.c
with the following guidelines:
- Single line 'for' statements must omit curly braces.
- Structs must be 0-initialized with '= { 0 }' instead of '= { NULL }'.
- Array sizes and indices should preferably be of type 'size_t' and
not 'int'.
- Function pointers should be passed as 'func' and not '&func'.
While at it, remove initialization for those variables that are
re-used multiple times, like loop variables.

reftable/stack_test.c exercises the functions defined in
reftable/stack.{c, h}. Migrate reftable/stack_test.c to the
unit testing framework. Migration involves refactoring the tests
to use the unit testing framework instead of reftable's test
framework and renaming the tests to be in-line with unit-tests'
standards.
Since some of the tests use set_test_hash() defined by
reftable/test_framework.{c, h} but these files are not
'#included' in the test file, copy this function in the
ported test file.
With the migration of stack test to the unit-tests framework,
"test-tool reftable" becomes a no-op. Hence, get rid of everything
that uses "test-tool reftable" alongside everything that is used
to implement it.
While at it, alphabetically sort the cmds[] list in
helper/test-tool.c by moving the entry for "dump-reftable".

The diff machinery has two ways to detect changes to set the exit code:
Just comparing hashes and comparing blob contents. The latter is needed
if certain changes have to be ignored, e.g. with --ignore-space-change
or --ignore-matching-lines. It's enabled by the diff_options flag
diff_from_contents.
The slower mode as never considered submodules (and subrepos) as changes
with --submodule=diff or --submodule=log, which is inconsistent with
--submodule=short (the default). Fix it.
d7b97b7185 (diff: let external diffs report that changes are
uninteresting, 2024-06-09) set diff_from_contents if external diff
programs are allowed. This is the default e.g. for git diff, and so
that change exposed the inconsistency much more widely.

The slower mode has never considered copies and renames to be changes,
which is inconsistent with the quicker one. Fix it. Even if we ignore
the file contents (because it's empty or contains only ignored lines),
there's still the meta data change of adding or changing a filename, so
we need to report it in the exit code.

The GIT_ADVICE environment variable was added implicitly in b79deeb554
(advice: add --no-advice global option, 2024-05-03) but was not
documented. Add documentation to show that it is an option for tools
that want to disable these messages. Make note that while the
--no-advice option exists, older Git versions will fail to parse that
option. The environment variable presents a way to change the behavior
of Git versions that understand it without disrupting older versions.

Some large repositories use tags to track a huge list of release
versions. While this choice is costly on the ref advertisement, it is
further wasteful for clients who do not need those tags. Allow clients
to optionally skip the tag advertisement.
This behavior is similar to that of 'git clone --no-tags' implemented in
0dab2468ee (clone: add a --no-tags option to clone without tags,
2017-04-26), including the modification of the remote.origin.tagOpt
config value to include "--no-tags".
One thing that is opposite of the 'git clone' implementation is that
this allows '--tags' as an assumed option, which can be naturally negated
with '--no-tags'. The clone command does not accept '--tags' but allows
"--no-no-tags" as the negation of its '--no-tags' option.
While testing this option, combine the test with the previously untested
'--no-src' option introduced in 4527db8ff8 (scalar: add --[no-]src
option, 2023-08-28).
