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:
systemd[437]: Starting Optimize Git repositories data...
git[747387]: WSL (747387) ERROR: UtilBindVsockAnyPort:285: socket failed 97

Address this (pun intended) by adding the `AF_VSOCK` address family to

The previous commit argued that parse-options callbacks should try to
use opt->value rather than touching globals directly. In some cases,
however, that's awkward to do. Some callbacks touch multiple variables,
or may even just call into an abstracted function that does so.
In some of these cases we _could_ convert them by stuffing the multiple
variables into a single struct and passing the struct pointer through
opt->value. But that may make other parts of the code less readable,
as the struct relationship has to be mentioned everywhere.
Let's just accept that these cases are special and leave them as-is. But
we do need to mark their "opt" parameters to satisfy -Wunused-parameter.

When running 'git maintenance start', the current pattern is to
configure global config settings to enable maintenance on the current
repository and set 'maintenance.auto' to false and _then_ to set up the
schedule with the system scheduler.
This has a problematic error condition: if the scheduler fails to
initialize, the repository still will not use automatic maintenance due
to the 'maintenance.auto' setting.
Fix this gap by swapping the order of operations. If Git fails to
initialize maintenance, then the config changes should never happen.

The 'git maintenance run' command prevents concurrent runs in the same
repository using a 'maintenance.lock' file. However, when using systemd
the hourly maintenance runs the same time as the daily and weekly runs.
(Similarly, daily maintenance runs at the same time as weekly
maintenance.) These competing commands result in some maintenance not
actually being run.
This overlap was something we could not fix until we made the recent
change to not use the builting 'hourly', 'daily', and 'weekly' schedules
in systemd. We can adjust the schedules such that:
1. Hourly runs avoid the 0th hour.
2. Daily runs avoid Monday.
This will keep maintenance runs from colliding when using systemd.

The get_random_minute() method was created to allow maintenance
schedules to be fixed to a random minute of the hour. This randomness is
only intended to spread out the load from a number of clients, but each
client should have an hour between each maintenance cycle.
Add this random minute to the systemd integration.
This integration is more complicated than similar changes for other
schedulers because of a neat trick that systemd allows: templating.
The previous implementation generated two template files with names
of the form 'git-maintenance@.(timer|service)'. The '.timer' or
'.service' indicates that this is a template that is picked up when we
later specify '...@<schedule>.timer' or '...@<schedule>.service'. The
'<schedule>' string is then used to insert into the template both the
'OnCalendar' schedule setting and the '--schedule' parameter of the
'git maintenance run' command.
In order to set these schedules to a given minute, we can no longer use
the 'hourly', 'daily', or 'weekly' strings for '<schedule>' and instead
need to abandon the template model for the .timer files. We can still
use templates for the .service files. For this reason, we split these
writes into two methods.
Modify the template with a custom schedule in the 'OnCalendar' setting.
This schedule has some interesting differences from cron-like patterns,
but is relatively easy to figure out from context. The one that might be
confusing is that '*-*-*' is a date-based pattern, but this must be
omitted when using 'Mon' to signal that we care about the day of the
week. Monday is used since that matches the day used for the 'weekly'
schedule used previously.
Now that the timer files are not templates, we might want to abandon the
'@' symbol in the file names. However, this would cause users with
existing schedules to get two competing schedules due to different
names. The work to remove the old schedule name is one thing that we can
avoid by keeping the '@' symbol in our unit names. Since we are locked
into this name, it makes sense that we keep the template model for the
.service files.
The rest of the change involves making sure we are writing these .timer
and .service files before initializing the schedule with 'systemctl' and
deleting the files when we are done. Some changes are also made to share
the random minute along with a single computation of the execution path
of the current Git executable.
In addition, older Git versions may have written a
'git-maintenance@.timer' template file. Be sure to remove this when
successfully enabling maintenance (or disabling maintenance).

The systemd_timer_write_unit_templates() method writes a single template
that is then used to start the hourly, daily, and weekly schedules with
systemd.
However, in order to schedule systemd maintenance on a given minute,
these templates need to be replaced with specific schedules for each of
these jobs.
Before modifying the schedules, move the writing method above the
systemd_timer_enable_unit() method, so we can write a specific schedule
for each unit.
The diff is computed smaller by showing systemd_timer_enable_unit() and
systemd_timer_delete_units() move instead of
systemd_timer_write_unit_templates() and
systemd_timer_delete_unit_templates().

When we initially created background maintenance -- with its hourly,
daily, and weekly schedules -- we considered the effects of all clients
launching fetches to the server every hour on the hour. The worry of
DDoSing server hosts was noted, but left as something we would consider
for a future update.
As background maintenance has gained more adoption over the past three
years, our worries about DDoSing the big Git hosts has been unfounded.
Those systems, especially those serving public repositories, are already
resilient to thundering herds of much smaller scale.
However, sometimes organizations spin up specific custom server
infrastructure either in addition to or on top of their Git host. Some
of these technologies are built for a different range of scale, and can
hit concurrency limits sooner. Organizations with such custom
infrastructures are more likely to recommend tools like `scalar` which
furthers their adoption of background maintenance.
To help solve for this, create get_random_minute() as a method to help
Git select a random minute when creating schedules in the future. The
integrations with this method do not yet exist, but will follow in
future changes.
To avoid multiple sources of randomness in the Git codebase, create a
new helper function, git_rand(), that returns a random uint32_t. This is
similar to how rand() returns a random nonnegative value, except it is
based on csprng_bytes() which is cryptographic and will return values
larger than RAND_MAX.
One thing that is important for testability is that we notice when we
are under a test scenario and return a predictable result. The schedules
themselves are not checked for this value, but at least one launchctl
test checks that we do not unnecessarily reboot the schedule if it has
not changed from a previous version.

Enhance `string_list_split_in_place()` to accept multiple characters as
delimiters instead of a single character.
Instead of using `strchr(2)` to locate the first occurrence of the given
delimiter character, `string_list_split_in_place_multi()` uses
`strcspn(2)` to move past the initial segment of characters comprised of
any characters in the delimiting set.
When only a single delimiting character is provided, `strpbrk(2)` (which
is implemented with `strcspn(2)`) has equivalent performance to
`strchr(2)`. Modern `strcspn(2)` implementations treat an empty
delimiter or the singleton delimiter as a special case and fall back to
calling strchrnul(). Both glibc[1] and musl[2] implement `strcspn(2)`
this way.
This change is one step to removing `strtok(2)` from the tree. Note that
`string_list_split_in_place()` is not a strict replacement for
`strtok()`, since it will happily turn sequential delimiter characters
into empty entries in the resulting string_list. For example:
string_list_split_in_place(&xs, "foo:;:bar:;:baz", ":;", -1)
would yield a string list of:
["foo", "", "", "bar", "", "", "baz"]
Callers that wish to emulate the behavior of strtok(2) more directly
should call `string_list_remove_empty_items()` after splitting.
To avoid regressions for the new multi-character delimter cases, update
t0063 in this patch as well.

Back in 5b92477f89 (builtin/gc.c: conditionally avoid pruning objects
via loose, 2022-05-20), `git gc` learned the `--cruft` option and
`gc.cruftPacks` configuration to opt-in to writing cruft packs when
collecting or pruning unreachable objects.
Cruft packs were introduced with the merge in a50036da1a (Merge branch
'tb/cruft-packs', 2022-06-03). They address the problem of "loose object
explosions", where Git will write out many individual loose objects when
there is a large number of unreachable objects that have not yet aged
past `--prune=<date>`.
Instead of keeping track of those unreachable yet recent objects via
their loose object file's mtime, cruft packs collect all unreachable
objects into a single pack with a corresponding `*.mtimes` file that
acts as a table to store the mtimes of all unreachable objects. This
prevents the need to store unreachable objects as loose as they age out
of the repository, and avoids the problem of loose object explosions.
Beyond avoiding loose object explosions, cruft packs also act as a more
efficient mechanism to store unreachable objects as they age out of a
repository. This is because pairs of similar unreachable objects serve
as delta bases for one another.
In 5b92477f89, the feature was introduced as experimental. Since then,
GitHub has been running these patches in every repository generating
hundreds of millions of cruft packs along the way. The feature is
battle-tested, and avoids many pathological cases such as above. Users
who either run `git gc` manually, or via `git maintenance` can benefit
from having cruft packs.
As such, enable cruft pack generation to take place by default (by
making `gc.cruftPacks` have the default of "true" rather than "false).

When cruft packs were implemented, we never adjusted the code for `git
gc`'s `--keep-largest-pack` and `gc.bigPackThreshold` to ignore cruft
packs. This option and configuration option share a common
implementation, but including cruft packs is wrong in both cases:
- Running `git gc --keep-largest-pack` in a repository where the
largest pack is the cruft pack itself will make it impossible for
`git gc` to prune objects, since the cruft pack itself is kept.
- The same is true for `gc.bigPackThreshold`, if the size of the cruft
pack exceeds the limit set by the caller.
In the future, it is possible that `gc.bigPackThreshold` could be used
to write a separate cruft pack containing any new unreachable objects
that entered the repository since the last time a cruft pack was
written.
There are some complexities to doing so, mainly around handling
pruning objects that are in an existing cruft pack that is above the
threshold (which would either need to be rewritten, or else delay
pruning). Rewriting a substantially similar cruft pack isn't ideal, but
it is significantly better than the status-quo.
If users have large cruft packs that they don't want to rewrite, they
can mark them as `*.keep` packs. But in general, if a repository has a
cruft pack that is so large it is slowing down GC's, it should probably
be pruned anyway.
In the meantime, ignore cruft packs in the common implementation for
both of these options, and add a pair of tests to prevent any future
regressions here.

Fix numerous and mostly long-standing segfaults in consumers of
the *_config_*value_multi() API. As discussed in the preceding commit
an empty key in the config syntax yields a "NULL" string, which these
users would give to strcmp() (or similar), resulting in segfaults.
As this change shows, most users users of the *_config_*value_multi()
API didn't really want such an an unsafe and low-level API, let's give
them something with the safety of git_config_get_string() instead.
This fix is similar to what the *_string() functions and others
acquired in[1] and [2]. Namely introducing and using a safer
"*_get_string_multi()" variant of the low-level "_*value_multi()"
function.
This fixes segfaults in code introduced in:
- d811c8e17c (versionsort: support reorder prerelease suffixes, 2015-02-26)
- c026557a37 (versioncmp: generalize version sort suffix reordering, 2016-12-08)

- 50a044f1e4 (gc: replace config subprocesses with API calls, 2022-09-27)
There are now two users ofthe low-level API:
- One in "builtin/for-each-repo.c", which we'll convert in a
subsequent commit.
- The "t/helper/test-config.c" code added in [3].
As seen in the preceding commit we need to give the
"t/helper/test-config.c" caller these "NULL" entries.
We could also alter the underlying git_configset_get_value_multi()
function to be "string safe", but doing so would leave no room for
other variants of "*_get_value_multi()" that coerce to other types.
Such coercion can't be built on the string version, since as we've
established "NULL" is a true value in the boolean context, but if we
coerced it to "" for use in a list of strings it'll be subsequently

Have the "git_configset_get_value_multi()" function and its siblings
return an "int" and populate a "**dest" parameter like every other
git_configset_get_*()" in the API.
As we'll take advantage of in subsequent commits, this fixes a blind
spot in the API where it wasn't possible to tell whether a list was
empty from whether a config key existed. For now we don't make use of
those new return values, but faithfully convert existing API users.
Most of this is straightforward, commentary on cases that stand out:
- To ensure that we'll properly use the return values of this function
in the future we're using the "RESULT_MUST_BE_USED" macro introduced
in [1].
As git_die_config() now has to handle this return value let's have
it BUG() if it can't find the config entry. As tested for in a
preceding commit we can rely on getting the config list in
git_die_config().
- The loops after getting the "list" value in "builtin/gc.c" could
also make use of "unsorted_string_list_has_string()" instead of using
that loop, but let's leave that for now.
- In "versioncmp.c" we now use the return value of the functions,
instead of checking if the lists are still non-NULL.

We already have the basic "git_config_get_value()" function and its
"repo_*" and "configset" siblings to get a given "key" and assign the
last key found to a provided "value".
But some callers don't care about that value, but just want to use the
return value of the "get_value()" function to check whether the key
exist (or another non-zero return value).
The immediate motivation for this is that a subsequent commit will
need to change all callers of the "*_get_value_multi()" family of
functions. In two cases here we (ab)used it to check whether we had
any values for the given key, but didn't care about the return value.
The rest of the callers here used various other config API functions
to do the same, all of which resolved to the same underlying functions
to provide the answer.
Some of these were using either git_config_get_string() or
git_config_get_string_tmp(), see fe4c750fb1 (submodule--helper: fix a
configure_added_submodule() leak, 2022-09-01) for a recent example. We
can now use a helper function that doesn't require a throwaway
variable.
We could have changed git_configset_get_value_multi() (and then
git_config_get_value() etc.) to accept a "NULL" as a "dest" for all
callers, but let's avoid changing the behavior of existing API
users. Having an "unused" value that we throw away internal to
config.c is cheap.
A "NULL as optional dest" pattern is also more fragile, as the intent
of the caller might be misinterpreted if he were to accidentally pass
"NULL", e.g. when "dest" is passed in from another function.
Another name for this function could have been
"*_config_key_exists()", as suggested in [1]. That would work for all
of these callers, and would currently be equivalent to this function,
as the git_configset_get_value() API normalizes all non-zero return
values to a "1".
But adding that API would set us up to lose information, as e.g. if
git_config_parse_key() in the underlying configset_find_element()
fails we'd like to return -1, not 1.
Let's change the underlying configset_find_element() function to
support this use-case, we'll make further use of it in a subsequent
commit where the git_configset_get_value_multi() function itself will
expose this new return value.
This still leaves various inconsistencies and clobbering or ignoring
of the return value in place. E.g here we're modifying
configset_add_value(), but ever since it was added in [2] we've been
ignoring its "int" return value, but as we're changing the
configset_find_element() it uses, let's have it faithfully ferry that
"ret" along.
Let's also use the "RESULT_MUST_BE_USED" macro introduced in [3] to
assert that we're checking the return value of
configset_find_element().
We're leaving the same change to configset_add_value() for some future
series. Once we start paying attention to its return value we'd need
to ferry it up as deep as do_config_from(), and would need to make
least read_{,very_}early_config() and git_protected_config() return an
"int" instead of "void". Let's leave that for now, and focus on
the *_get_*() functions.

'git maintenance register' is taught to write configuration to an

builtin/gc.c: fix use-after-free in maintenance_unregister()
maintenance --unregister: fix uninit'd data use & -Wdeclaration-after-statement
maintenance: add option to register in a specific config
for-each-repo: interpolate repo path arguments
While trying to fix a move based on an uninitialized value (along with a
declaration after the first statement), be0fd57228
(maintenance --unregister: fix uninit'd data use &
-Wdeclaration-after-statement, 2022-11-15) unintentionally introduced a

The problem arises when `maintenance_unregister()` sees a non-NULL

git_configset_get_value_multi() to lookup the corresponding values.
We store the result off, and then call git_configset_clear(), which
frees the pointer that we just stored. We then try to read that
now-freed pointer a few lines below, and there we have our
use-after-free:

The 'git maintenance [un]register' commands set or unset the multi-
valued maintenance.repo config key with the absolute path of the current
repository. These are set in the global config file.
Instead of calling a subcommand and creating a new process, create the
proper API calls to git_config_set_multivar_in_file_gently(). It
requires loading the filename for the global config file (and erroring
out if now $HOME value is set). We also need to be careful about using
CONFIG_REGEX_NONE when adding the value and using
CONFIG_FLAGS_FIXED_VALUE when removing the value. In both cases, we
check that the value already exists (this check already existed for
'unregister').
Also, remove the transparent translation of the error code from the
config API to the exit code of 'git maintenance'. Instead, use die() to
recover from failures at that level. In the case of 'unregister
--force', allow the CONFIG_NOTHING_SET error code to be a success. This
allows a possible race where another process removes the config value.
The end result is that the config value is not set anymore, so we can
treat this as a success.

The 'git maintenance unregister' subcommand has a step that removes the
current repository from the multi-valued maitenance.repo config key.
This fails if the repository is not listed in that key. This makes
running 'git maintenance unregister' twice result in a failure in the
second instance.
This failure exit code is helpful, but its message is not. Add a new
die() message that explicitly calls out the failure due to the
repository not being registered.
In some cases, users may want to run 'git maintenance unregister' just
to make sure that background jobs will not start on this repository, but
they do not want to check to see if it is registered first. Add a new
'--force' option that will siltently succeed if the repository is not
already registered.
Also add an extra test of 'git maintenance unregister' at a point where
there are no registered repositories. This should fail without --force.

While cron is specified by POSIX, there are a wide variety of
implementations in use. "git maintenance" assumes that the
"crontab" command can be fed from its standard input the new
contents and the syntax to do so is not to have any filename
argument, as POSIX describes. However, on FreeBSD, the cron
implementation requires a file name argument: if the user wants to
edit standard input, they must specify "-".
Unfortunately, POSIX systems do not have to interpret "-" on the
command line of crontab as a request to read from the standard
input. Blindly adding "-" on the command line would not work as a
general solution.
Since POSIX tells us that cron must accept a file name argument, let's
solve this problem by specifying a temporary file instead. This will
ensure that we work with the vast majority of implementations.
Note that because delete_tempfile closes the file for us, we should not
call fclose here on the handle, since doing so will introduce a double
free.

Several of the git-maintenance subcommands don't take any options, so
they don't bother looking at argv at all. This means they'll silently
accept garbage, like:
$ git maintenance register --foo
[no output]
$ git maintenance stop bar
[no output]
Let's give them the basic boilerplate to detect and handle these cases:
$ git maintenance register --foo
error: unknown option `foo'
usage: git maintenance register
$ git maintenance stop bar
usage: git maintenance stop
We could reduce the number of lines of code here a bit with a shared
helper function. But it's worth building out the boilerplate, as it may
serve as the base for adding options later.
Note one complication: maintenance_start() calls directly into
maintenance_register(), so it now needs to pass a plausible argv (we
don't care, but parse_options() is expecting there to at least be an
argv[0] program name). This is an extra line of code, but it eliminates
the need for an explanatory comment.

'git maintenanze' parses its subcommands with a couple of if
statements. parse-options has just learned to parse subcommands, so
let's use that facility instead, with the benefits of shorter code,
handling missing or unknown subcommands, and listing subcommands for
Bash completion.
This change makes 'git maintenance' consistent with other commands in
that the help text shown for '-h' goes to standard output, not error,
in the exit code and error message on unknown subcommand, and the
error message on missing subcommand. There is a test checking these,
which is now updated accordingly.
Note that some of the functions implementing each subcommand don't
accept any parameters, so add the (unused) 'argc', '**argv' and
'*prefix' parameters to make them match the type expected by
parse-options, and thus avoid casting function pointers.

This reverts commit 96eaffebbf (maintenance: set
log.excludeDecoration durin prefetch, 2021-01-19).
The previous change created a default decoration filter that does not
include refs/prefetch/, so this modification of the config is no longer
needed.
One issue that can happen from this point on is that users who ran the
prefetch task on previous versions of Git will still have a
log.excludeDecoration value and that will prevent the new default
decoration filter from being active. Thus, when we add the refs/bundle/
namespace as part of the bundle URI feature, those users will see
refs/bundle/ decorations.

Some config variables are combinations of multiple words, and we
typically write them in camelCase forms in manpage and translatable
strings. It's not easy to find mismatches for these camelCase config
variables during code reviews, but occasionally they are identified
during localization translations.
To check for mismatched config variables, I introduced a new feature
in the helper program for localization[^1]. The following mismatched
config variables have been identified by running the helper program,
such as "git-po-helper check-pot".
Lowercase in manpage should use camelCase:
* Documentation/config/http.txt: http.pinnedpubkey
Lowercase in translable strings should use camelCase:
* builtin/fast-import.c: pack.indexversion
* builtin/gc.c: gc.logexpiry
* builtin/index-pack.c: pack.indexversion
* builtin/pack-objects.c: pack.indexversion
* builtin/repack.c: pack.writebitmaps
* commit.c: i18n.commitencoding
* gpg-interface.c: user.signingkey
* http.c: http.postbuffer
* submodule-config.c: submodule.fetchjobs
Mismatched camelCases, choose the former:
* Documentation/config/transfer.txt: transfer.credentialsInUrl
remote.c: transfer.credentialsInURL

Change the "error: " output when we exit with 128 due to gc.log errors
to use a "fatal: " prefix instead. To do this add a
die_message_errno() a sibling function to the die_errno() added in a
preceding commit.
Before this we'd expect report_last_gc_error() to return -1 from
error_errno() in this case. It already treated a status of 0 and 1
specially. Let's just document that anything that's not 0 or 1 should
be returned.
We could also retain the "ret < 0" behavior here without hardcoding
128 by returning -128, and having the caller do a "return -ret", but I
think this makes more sense, and preserves the path from
die_message*()'s return value to the "return" without hardcoding
"128".

A minor code cleanup. Let's "return" from cmd_gc() instead of calling
exit(). See 338abb0f04 (builtins + test helpers: use return instead
of exit() in cmd_*, 2021-06-08) for other such cases.
While we're at it add a \n to separate the variable declaration from
the rest of the code in this block. Both of these changes make a
subsequent change smaller and easier to read.
This change isn't really needed for that subsequent change, but now
someone viewing that future behavior change won't need to wonder why
we're either still calling exit() here, or fixing it while we're at
it.

"git maintenance run" learned to use system supplied scheduler
backend, but cron on macOS turns out to be unusable for this
purpose.
* ds/no-usable-cron-on-macos:
maintenance: disable cron on macOS
In eba1ba9 (maintenance: `git maintenance run` learned
`--scheduler=<scheduler>`, 2021-09-04), we introduced the ability to
specify a scheduler explicitly. This led to some extra checks around
whether an alternative scheduler was available. This added the
functionality of removing background maintenance from schedulers other
than the one selected.
On macOS, cron is technically available, but running 'crontab' triggers
a UI prompt asking for special permissions. This is the major reason why
launchctl is used as the default scheduler. The is_crontab_available()
method triggers this UI prompt, causing user disruption.
Remove this disruption by using an #ifdef to prevent running crontab
this way on macOS. This has the unfortunate downside that if a user
manually selects cron via the '--scheduler' option, then adjusting the
scheduler later will not remove the schedule from cron. The
'--scheduler' option ignores the is_available checks, which is how we
can get into this situation.
Extract the new check_crontab_process() method to avoid making the
'child' variable unused on macOS. The method is marked MAYBE_UNUSED
because it has no callers on macOS.

builtin/gc.c has two ways of checking if multi-pack-index is enabled:
- git_config_get_bool() in incremental_repack_auto_condition()
- the_repository->settings.core_multi_pack_index in
maintenance_task_incremental_repack()
The two implementations have existed since the incremental-repack task
was introduced in e841a79a13 (maintenance: add incremental-repack auto
condition, 2020-09-25). These two values can diverge because
prepare_repo_settings() enables the feature in the_repository->settings
by default.
In the case where core.multiPackIndex is not set in the config, the auto
condition would fail, causing the incremental-repack task to not be
run. Because we always want to consider the default values, we should
always use the_repository->settings.
Standardize on using the_repository->settings.core_multi_pack_index to
check if multi-pack-index is enabled.

cache.h: Introduce a generic "xdg_config_home_for(…)" function
When the launchctl_boot_plist() function was added in
a16eb6b1ff (maintenance: skip bootout/bootstrap when plist is
registered, 2021-08-24), an unused call to launchctl_get_uid() was
added along with it. That call appears to have been copy/pasted from
launchctl_boot_plist().
Since we can remove that, we can also get rid of the "result"
variable, whose only purpose was allow for the free() between its
assignment and the return. That pattern also appears to have been
copy/pasted from launchctl_boot_plist().
As the patch shows the returned value from launchctl_get_uid() wasn't
used at all in this function. The launchctl_get_uid() function itself
just calls xstrfmt() and getuid(), neither of which have any subtle
global side-effects, so this removal is safe.

In many cases where we spawned child processes that _may_ trigger a
repack, we explicitly closed the object store first (so that the
`repack` process can delete the `.pack` files, which would otherwise not
be possible on Windows since files cannot be deleted as long as they as
still in use).
Wherever possible, we now use the new `close_object_store` bit of the
`run_command()` API, to delay closing the object store even further.
This makes the code easier to maintain because it is now more obvious
that we only release those file handles because of those child
processes.

"git maintenance" scheduler fix for macOS.
* js/maintenance-launchctl-fix:
maintenance: skip bootout/bootstrap when plist is registered
maintenance: create `launchctl` configuration using a lock file
The existing mechanism for scheduling background maintenance is done
through cron. On Linux systems managed by systemd, systemd provides an
alternative to schedule recurring tasks: systemd timers.
The main motivations to implement systemd timers in addition to cron
are:
* cron is optional and Linux systems running systemd might not have it
installed.
* The execution of `crontab -l` can tell us if cron is installed but not
if the daemon is actually running.
* With systemd, each service is run in its own cgroup and its logs are
tagged by the service inside journald. With cron, all scheduled tasks
are running in the cron daemon cgroup and all the logs of the
user-scheduled tasks are pretended to belong to the system cron
service.
Concretely, a user that doesn’t have access to the system logs won’t
have access to the log of their own tasks scheduled by cron whereas
they will have access to the log of their own tasks scheduled by
systemd timer.
Although `cron` attempts to send email, that email may go unseen by
the user because these days, local mailboxes are not heavily used
anymore.
In order to schedule git maintenance, we need two unit template files:
* ~/.config/systemd/user/git-maintenance@.service
to define the command to be started by systemd and
* ~/.config/systemd/user/git-maintenance@.timer
to define the schedule at which the command should be run.
Those units are templates that are parameterized by the frequency.
Based on those templates, 3 timers are started:
* git-maintenance@hourly.timer
* git-maintenance@daily.timer
* git-maintenance@weekly.timer
The command launched by those three timers are the same as with the
other scheduling methods:
/path/to/git for-each-repo --exec-path=/path/to
--config=maintenance.repo maintenance run --schedule=%i
with the full path for git to ensure that the version of git launched
for the scheduled maintenance is the same as the one used to run
`maintenance start`.
The timer unit contains `Persistent=true` so that, if the computer is
powered down when a maintenance task should run, the task will be run
when the computer is back powered on.

Depending on the system, different schedulers can be used to schedule
the hourly, daily and weekly executions of `git maintenance run`:
* `launchctl` for MacOS,
* `schtasks` for Windows and
* `crontab` for everything else.
`git maintenance run` now has an option to let the end-user explicitly
choose which scheduler he wants to use:
`--scheduler=auto|crontab|launchctl|schtasks`.
When `git maintenance start --scheduler=XXX` is run, it not only
registers `git maintenance run` tasks in the scheduler XXX, it also
removes the `git maintenance run` tasks from all the other schedulers to
ensure we cannot have two schedulers launching concurrent identical
tasks.
The default value is `auto` which chooses a suitable scheduler for the
system.
`git maintenance stop` doesn't have any `--scheduler` parameter because
this command will try to remove the `git maintenance run` tasks from all
the available schedulers.

Remove the trailing dot from the warning we emit about gc.log. It's
common for various terminal UX's to allow the user to select "words",
and by including the trailing dot a user wanting to select the path to
gc.log will need to manually remove the trailing dot.
Such a user would also probably need to adjust the path if it e.g. had
spaces in it, but this should address this very common case.
