When developing another patch series I had a temporary state in
which git-clone would segfault, when the call was prepared in
prepare_to_clone_next_submodule. This lead to the call failing,
i.e. in `update_clone_task_finished` the task was scheduled to be
tried again. The second call to prepare_to_clone_next_submodule
would return 0, as the segfaulted clone did create the .git file
already, such that was not considered to need to be cloned again. I
was seeing the "BUG: ce was a submodule before?\n" message, which
was the correct behavior at the time as my local code was
buggy. When trying to debug this failure, I tried to use printing
messages into the strbuf that is passed around, but these messages
were never printed as the die(..) doesn't flush the `err` strbuf.
When implementing the die() in 665b35ecc (2016-06-09, "submodule--helper:
initial clone learns retry logic"), I considered this condition to be
a severe condition, which should lead to an immediate abort as we do not
trust ourselves any more. However the queued messages in `err` are valuable
so let's not toss them out by immediately dying, but a graceful return.
Another thing to note: The error message itself was misleading. A return
value of 0 doesn't indicate the passed in `ce` is not a submodule any more,
but just that we do not consider cloning it any more.

'git submodule--helper update-clone' has logic to retry failed clones
a second time. For this purpose, there is a list of submodules to clone,
and a second list that is filled with the submodules to retry. Within
these lists, the submodules are identified by an index as if both lists
were just appended.
This works nicely except when the second clone attempt fails as well. To
report an error, the identifying index must be adjusted by an offset so
that it can be used as an index into the second list. However, the
calculation uses the logical total length of the lists so that the result
always points one past the end of the second list.
Pick the correct index.

git-submodule--helper is invoked as the upstream of a pipe in several
places. Usually, the failure of a program in this position is not
detected by the shell. For this reason, the code inserts a token in the
output stream when git-submodule--helper fails that is detected
downstream, where the shell script is quit with exit code 1.
There happens to be a bug in git-submodule--helper that leads to a
segmentation fault. The test suite triggers the crash in several places,
all of which are protected by 'test_must_fail'. But due to the inspecific
exit code 1, the crash remains undiagnosed.
Extend the failure protocol such that git-submodule--helper's exit code
is passed downstream (only in the case of failure). This enables the
downstream to use it as its own exit code, and 'test_must_fail' to
identify the segmentation fault as an unexpected failure.
The bug itself is fixed in the next commit.

A careless invocation of "git send-email directory/" after editing
0001-change.patch with an editor often ends up sending both
0001-change.patch and its backup file, 0001-change.patch~, causing
embarrassment and a minor confusion. Detect such an input and
offer to skip the backup files when sending the patches out.

The internal code used to show local timezone offset is not

A new run-command API function pipe_command() is introduced to
sanely feed data to the standard input while capturing data from
the standard output and the standard error of an external process,
which is cumbersome to hand-roll correctly without deadlocking.

errors (instead of relying on GPG's exit status).
