Junio C Hamano b25ec8b8d5 t1517: more coverage for commands that work without repository
While most of the commands in Git suite are designed to do useful
things in Git repositories, some commands are also usable outside
any repository.  Building on top of an earlier work abece6e9 (t1517:
test commands that are designed to be run outside repository,
2024-05-20) that adds tests for such commands, let's give coverage
to some more commands.

This patch covers commands whose code has hits for

    $ git grep setup_git_directory_gently

and passes a pointer to nongit_ok variable it uses to allow it to
run outside a Git repository, but mostly they are tested only to see
that they start up (as opposed to dying with "not in a git
repository" complaint).  We may want to update them to actually do
something useful later, but this would at least help us catch
regressions by mistake.

Git - fast, scalable, distributed revision control system

Git is a fast, scalable, distributed revision control system with an unusually rich command set that provides both high-level operations and full access to internals.

Git is an Open Source project covered by the GNU General Public License version 2 (some parts of it are under different licenses, compatible with the GPLv2). It was originally written by Linus Torvalds with help of a group of hackers around the net.

Please read the file INSTALL for installation instructions.

Many Git online resources are accessible from https://git-scm.com/ including full documentation and Git related tools.

See Documentation/gittutorial.txt to get started, then see Documentation/giteveryday.txt for a useful minimum set of commands, and Documentation/git-<commandname>.txt for documentation of each command. If git has been correctly installed, then the tutorial can also be read with man gittutorial or git help tutorial, and the documentation of each command with man git-<commandname> or git help <commandname>.

CVS users may also want to read Documentation/gitcvs-migration.txt (man gitcvs-migration or git help cvs-migration if git is installed).

The user discussion and development of Git take place on the Git mailing list -- everyone is welcome to post bug reports, feature requests, comments and patches to git@vger.kernel.org (read Documentation/SubmittingPatches for instructions on patch submission and Documentation/CodingGuidelines).

Those wishing to help with error message, usage and informational message string translations (localization l10) should see po/README.md (a po file is a Portable Object file that holds the translations).

To subscribe to the list, send an email to git+subscribe@vger.kernel.org (see https://subspace.kernel.org/subscribing.html for details). The mailing list archives are available at https://lore.kernel.org/git/, https://marc.info/?l=git and other archival sites.

Issues which are security relevant should be disclosed privately to the Git Security mailing list git-security@googlegroups.com.
