The definition of a remote-tracking branch in the glossary have been
out-of-date for a while (by e.g. referring to "Pull:" from old-style
$GIT_DIR/remotes files).
Also, the preceding patches have formalized that a remote-tracking branch
must match a configured refspec in order to be usable as an upstream.
This patch rewrites the paragraph on remote-tracking branches accordingly.

The current code for validating tracking branches (e.g. the argument to
the -t/--track option) hardcodes refs/heads/* and refs/remotes/* as the
potential locations for tracking branches. This works with the refspecs
created by "git clone" or "git remote add", but is suboptimal in other
cases:
- If "refs/remotes/foo/bar" exists without any association to a remote
(i.e. there is no remote named "foo", or no remote with a refspec
that matches "refs/remotes/foo/bar"), then it is impossible to set up
a valid upstream config that tracks it. Currently, the code defaults
to using "refs/remotes/foo/bar" from repo "." as the upstream, which
works, but is probably not what the user had in mind when running
"git branch baz --track foo/bar".
- If the user has tweaked the fetch refspec for a remote to put its
remote-tracking branches outside of refs/remotes/*, e.g. by running
git config remote.foo.fetch "+refs/heads/*:refs/foo_stuff/*"
then the current code will refuse to use its remote-tracking branches
as --track arguments, since they do not match refs/remotes/*.
This patch removes the "refs/remotes/*" requirement for upstream branches,
and replaces it with explicit checking of the refspecs for each remote to
determine whether a given --track argument is a valid remote-tracking
branch. This solves both of the above problems, since the matching refspec
guarantees that there is a both a remote name and a remote branch name
that can be used for the upstream config.
However, this means that refs located within refs/remotes/* without a
corresponding remote/refspec will no longer be usable as upstreams.
The few existing tests which depended on this behavioral quirk has
already been fixed in the preceding patches.
This patch fixes the last remaining test failure in t2024-checkout-dwim.

We are formalizing a requirement that any remote-tracking branch to be used
as an upstream (i.e. as an argument to --track), _must_ "belong" to a
configured remote by being matched by the "dst" side of a fetch refspec.
This test uses --track against a "remotes/trunk" ref which does not belong
to any configured (git) remotes, but is instead created by "git svn fetch"
operating on an svn-remote. It does not make sense to use an svn-remote as
an upstream for a local branch, as a regular "git pull" from (or "git push"
to) it would obviously fail (instead you would need to use "git svn" to
communicate with this remote). Furthermore, the usage of --track in this
case is unnecessary, since the upstreaming config that would be created is
never used.
Simply removing --track fixes the issue without changing the expected
behavior of the test.

The DWIM mode of checkout allows you to run "git checkout foo" when there
is no existing local ref or path called "foo", and there is exactly _one_
remote with a remote-tracking branch called "foo". Git will automatically
create a new local branch called "foo" using the remote-tracking "foo" as
its starting point and configured upstream.
For example, consider the following unconventional (but perfectly valid)
remote setup:
[remote "origin"]
fetch = refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/*
[remote "frotz"]
fetch = refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/frotz/nitfol/*
Case 1: Assume both "origin" and "frotz" have remote-tracking branches called
"foo", at "refs/remotes/origin/foo" and "refs/remotes/frotz/nitfol/foo"
respectively. In this case "git checkout foo" should fail, because there is
more than one remote with a "foo" branch.
Case 2: Assume only "frotz" have a remote-tracking branch called "foo". In
this case "git checkout foo" should succeed, and create a local branch "foo"
from "refs/remotes/frotz/nitfol/foo", using remote branch "foo" from "frotz"
as its upstream.
The current code hardcodes the assumption that all remote-tracking branches
must match the "refs/remotes/$remote/*" pattern (which is true for remotes
with "conventional" refspecs, but not true for the "frotz" remote above).
When running "git checkout foo", the current code looks for exactly one ref
matching "refs/remotes/*/foo", hence in the above example, it fails to find
"refs/remotes/frotz/nitfol/foo", which causes it to fail both case #1 and #2.
The better way to handle the above example is to actually study the fetch
refspecs to deduce the candidate remote-tracking branches for "foo"; i.e.
assume "foo" is a remote branch being fetched, and then map "refs/heads/foo"
through the refspecs in order to get the corresponding remote-tracking
branches "refs/remotes/origin/foo" and "refs/remotes/frotz/nitfol/foo".
Finally we check which of these happens to exist in the local repo, and
if there is exactly one, we have an unambiguous match for "git checkout foo",
and may proceed.
This fixes most of the failing tests introduced in the previous patch.

When using "git checkout foo" to DWIM the creation of local "foo" from some
existing upstream "foo", we assume conventional refspecs as created by "git
clone" or "git remote add", and fail to work correctly if the current
refspecs do not follow the conventional "refs/remotes/$remote/*" pattern.

If we die from an async thread, we do not actually exit the
program, but just kill the thread. This confuses the static
counter in usage.c's default die_is_recursing function; it
updates the counter once for the thread death, and then when
the main program calls die() itself, it erroneously thinks
we are recursing. The end result is that we print "recursion
detected in die handler" instead of the real error in such a
case (the easiest way to trigger this is having a remote
connection hang up while running a sideband demultiplexer).
This patch solves it by using a per-thread counter when the
async_die function is installed; we detect recursion in each
thread (including the main one), but they do not step on
each other's toes.
Other threaded code does not need to worry about this, as
they do not install specialized die handlers; they just let
a die() from a sub-thread take down the whole program.
Since we are overriding the default recursion-check
function, there is an interesting corner case that is not a
problem, but bears some explanation. Imagine the main thread
calls die(), and then in the die_routine starts an async
call. We will switch to using thread-local storage, which
starts at 0, for the main thread's counter, even though
the original counter was actually at 1. That's OK, though,
for two reasons:
1. It would miss only the first level of recursion, and
would still find recursive failures inside the async
helper.
2. We do not currently and are not likely to start doing
anything as heavyweight as starting an async routine
from within a die routine or helper function.

When any git code calls die or die_errno, we use a counter
to detect recursion into the die functions from any of the
helper functions. However, such a simple counter is not good
enough for threaded programs, which may call die from a
sub-thread, killing only the sub-thread (but incrementing
the counter for everyone).
Rather than try to deal with threads ourselves here, let's
just allow callers to plug in their own recursion-detection
function. This is similar to how we handle the die routine
(the caller plugs in a die routine which may kill only the
sub-thread).

read_revisions_from_stdin() has passed pointers to its read buffer
down to handle_revision_arg() since its inception way back in 42cabc3
(Teach rev-list an option to read revs from the standard input.,
2006-09-05). Even back then, this was a bug: through
add_pending_object, the argument was recorded in the object_array's
'name' field.
Fix it by making a copy whenever read_revisions_from_stdin() passes an
argument down the callchain. The other caller runs handle_revision_arg()
on argv[], where it would be redundant to make a copy.

Because we reuse curl handles for multiple requests, the
setup of a handle happens in two stages: stable, global
setup and per-request setup. The lifecycle of a handle is
something like:
1. get_curl_handle; do basic global setup that will last
through the whole program (e.g., setting the user
agent, ssl options, etc)
2. get_active_slot; set up a per-request baseline (e.g.,
clearing the read/write functions, making it a GET
request, etc)
3. perform the request with curl_*_perform functions
4. goto step 2 to perform another request
Breaking it down this way means we can avoid doing global
setup from step (1) repeatedly, but we still finish step (2)
with a predictable baseline setup that callers can rely on.
Until commit 6d052d7 (http: add HTTP_KEEP_ERROR option,
2013-04-05), setting curl's FAILONERROR option was a global
setup; we never changed it. However, 6d052d7 introduced an
option where some requests might turn off FAILONERROR. Later
requests using the same handle would have the option
unexpectedly turned off, which meant they would not notice
http failures at all.
This could easily be seen in the test-suite for the
"half-auth" cases of t5541 and t5551. The initial requests
turned off FAILONERROR, which meant it was erroneously off
for the rpc POST. That worked fine for a successful request,
but meant that we failed to react properly to the HTTP 401
(instead, we treated whatever the server handed us as a
successful message body).
The solution is simple: now that FAILONERROR is a
per-request setting, we move it to get_active_slot to make
sure it is reset for each request.
