In sparse-checkouts, files mis-marked as missing from the working tree
could lead to later problems. Such files were hard to discover, and
harder to correct. Automatically detecting and correcting the marking
of such files has been added to avoid these problems.

Typically with sparse checkouts, we expect files outside the sparsity
patterns to be marked as SKIP_WORKTREE and be missing from the working
tree. Sometimes this expectation would be violated however; including
in cases such as:
* users grabbing files from elsewhere and writing them to the worktree
(perhaps by editing a cached copy in an editor, copying/renaming, or
even untarring)
* various git commands having incomplete or no support for the
SKIP_WORKTREE bit[1,2]
* users attempting to "abort" a sparse-checkout operation with a
not-so-early Ctrl+C (updating $GIT_DIR/info/sparse-checkout and the
working tree is not atomic)[3].
When the SKIP_WORKTREE bit in the index did not reflect the presence of
the file in the working tree, it traditionally caused confusion and was
difficult to detect and recover from. So, in a sparse checkout, since
af6a51875a (repo_read_index: clear SKIP_WORKTREE bit from files present
in worktree, 2022-01-14), Git automatically clears the SKIP_WORKTREE
bit at index read time for entries corresponding to files that are
present in the working tree.
There is another workflow, however, where it is expected that paths
outside the sparsity patterns appear to exist in the working tree and
that they do not lose the SKIP_WORKTREE bit, at least until they get
modified. A Git-aware virtual file system[4] takes advantage of its
position as a file system driver to expose all files in the working
tree, fetch them on demand using partial clone on access, and tell Git
to pay attention to them on demand by updating the sparse checkout
pattern on writes. This means that commands like "git status" only have
to examine files that have potentially been modified, whereas commands
like "ls" are able to show the entire codebase without requiring manual
updates to the sparse checkout pattern.
Thus since af6a51875a, Git with such Git-aware virtual file systems
unsets the SKIP_WORKTREE bit for all files and commands like "git
status" have to fetch and examine them all.
Introduce a configuration setting sparse.expectFilesOutsideOfPatterns to
allow limiting the tracked set of files to a small set once again. A
Git-aware virtual file system or other application that wants to
maintain files outside of the sparse checkout can set this in a
repository to instruct Git not to check for the presence of
SKIP_WORKTREE files. The setting defaults to false, so most users of
sparse checkout will still get the benefit of an automatically updating
index to recover from the variety of difficult issues detailed in
af6a51875a for paths with SKIP_WORKTREE set despite the path being
present.

When cloning a repo with a --filter and with --recurse-submodules
enabled, the partial clone filter only applies to the top-level repo.
This can lead to unexpected bandwidth and disk usage for projects which
include large submodules. For example, a user might wish to make a
partial clone of Gerrit and would run:
`git clone --recurse-submodules --filter=blob:5k https://gerrit.googlesource.com/gerrit`.
However, only the superproject would be a partial clone; all the
submodules would have all blobs downloaded regardless of their size.
With this change, the same filter can also be applied to submodules,
meaning the expected bandwidth and disk savings apply consistently.
To avoid changing default behavior, add a new clone flag,
`--also-filter-submodules`. When this is set along with `--filter` and
`--recurse-submodules`, the filter spec is passed along to git-submodule
and git-submodule--helper, such that submodule clones also have the
filter applied.
This applies the same filter to the superproject and all submodules.
Users who need to customize the filter per-submodule would need to clone
with `--no-recurse-submodules` and then manually initialize each
submodule with the proper filter.
Applying filters to submodules should be safe thanks to Jonathan Tan's
recent work [1, 2, 3] eliminating the use of alternates as a method of
accessing submodule objects, so any submodule object access now triggers
a lazy fetch from the submodule's promisor remote if the accessed object
is missing. This patch is a reworked version of [4], which was created
prior to Jonathan Tan's work.

The extensions.worktreeConfig extension was added in 58b284a (worktree:
add per-worktree config files, 2018-10-21) and was somewhat documented
in Documentation/git-config.txt. However, the extensions.worktreeConfig
value was not specified further in the list of possible config keys. The
location of the config.worktree file is not specified, and there are
some precautions that should be mentioned clearly, but are only
mentioned in git-worktree.txt.
Expand the documentation to help users discover the complexities of
extensions.worktreeConfig by adding details and cross links in these
locations (relative to Documentation/):
- config/extensions.txt
- git-config.txt
- git-worktree.txt
The updates focus on items such as
* $GIT_DIR/config.worktree takes precedence over $GIT_COMMON_DIR/config.
* The core.worktree and core.bare=true settings are incorrect to have in
the common config file when extensions.worktreeConfig is enabled.
* The sparse-checkout settings core.sparseCheckout[Cone] are recommended
to be set in the worktree config.
As documented in 11664196ac ("Revert "check_repository_format_gently():
refuse extensions for old repositories"", 2020-07-15), this extension
must be considered regardless of the repository format version for
historical reasons.
A future change will update references to extensions.worktreeConfig
within git-sparse-checkout.txt, but a behavior change is needed before
making those updates.

To improve the submodules UX, we would like to teach Git to handle
branches in submodules. Start this process by teaching "git branch" the
--recurse-submodules option so that "git branch --recurse-submodules
topic" will create the `topic` branch in the superproject and its
submodules.
Although this commit does not introduce breaking changes, it does not
work well with existing --recurse-submodules commands because "git
branch --recurse-submodules" writes to the submodule ref store, but most
commands only consider the superproject gitlink and ignore the submodule
ref store. For example, "git checkout --recurse-submodules" will check
out the commits in the superproject gitlinks (and put the submodules in
detached HEAD) instead of checking out the submodule branches.
Because of this, this commit introduces a new configuration value,
`submodule.propagateBranches`. The plan is for Git commands to
prioritize submodule ref store information over superproject gitlinks if
this value is true. Because "git branch --recurse-submodules" writes to
submodule ref stores, for the sake of clarity, it will not function
unless this configuration value is set.
This commit also includes changes that support working with submodules
from a superproject commit because "branch --recurse-submodules" (and
future commands) need to read .gitmodules and gitlinks from the
superproject commit, but submodules are typically read from the
filesystem's .gitmodules and the index's gitlinks. These changes are:
* add a submodules_of_tree() helper that gives the relevant
information of an in-tree submodule (e.g. path and oid) and
initializes the repository
* add is_tree_submodule_active() by adding a treeish_name parameter to
is_submodule_active()
* add the "submoduleNotUpdated" advice to advise users to update the
submodules in their trees
Incidentally, fix an incorrect usage string that combined the 'list'
usage of git branch (-l) with the 'create' usage; this string has been
incorrect since its inception, a8dfd5eac4 (Make builtin-branch.c use
parse_options., 2007-10-07).

It can be helpful when creating a new branch to use the existing
tracking configuration from the branch point. However, there is
currently not a method to automatically do so.
Teach git-{branch,checkout,switch} an "inherit" argument to the
"--track" option. When this is set, creating a new branch will cause the
tracking configuration to default to the configuration of the branch
point, if set.
For example, if branch "main" tracks "origin/main", and we run
`git checkout --track=inherit -b feature main`, then branch "feature"
will track "origin/main". Thus, `git status` will show us how far
ahead/behind we are from origin, and `git pull` will pull from origin.
This is particularly useful when creating branches across many
submodules, such as with `git submodule foreach ...` (or if running with
a patch such as [1], which we use at $job), as it avoids having to
manually set tracking info for each submodule.
Since we've added an argument to "--track", also add "--track=direct" as
another way to explicitly get the original "--track" behavior ("--track"
without an argument still works as well).
Finally, teach branch.autoSetupMerge a new "inherit" option. When this
is set, "--track=inherit" becomes the default behavior.

The discussion for gpg.ssh.allowedSignersFile shows an example string
that contains "user1@example.com,user2@example.com". Asciidoc thinks
these are real email addresses and generates "mailto" footnotes for
them. This makes the rendered content more confusing, as it has extra
"[1]" markers:
The file consists of one or more lines of principals followed by an
ssh public key. e.g.: user1@example.com[1],user2@example.com[2]
ssh-rsa AAAAX1... See ssh-keygen(1) "ALLOWED SIGNERS" for details.
and also generates pointless notes at the end of the page:
NOTES
1. user1@example.com
mailto:user1@example.com
2. user2@example.com
mailto:user2@example.com
We can fix this by putting the example into a backtick literal block.
That inhibits the mailto generation, and as a bonus typesets the example
text in a way that sets it off from the regular prose (a tt font for
html, or bold in the roff manpage).

If valid-before/after dates are configured for this signatures key in the
allowedSigners file then the verification should check if the key was valid at
the time the commit was made. This allows for graceful key rollover and
revoking keys without invalidating all previous commits.
This feature needs openssh > 8.8. Older ssh-keygen versions will simply
ignore this flag and use the current time.
Strictly speaking this feature is available in 8.7, but since 8.7 has a
bug that makes it unusable in another needed call we require 8.8.
Timestamp information is present on most invocations of check_signature.
However signer ident is not. We will need the signer email / name to be able
to implement "Trust on first use" functionality later.
Since the payload contains all necessary information we can parse it
from there. The caller only needs to provide us some info about the
payload by setting payload_type in the signature_check struct.
- Add payload_type field & enum and payload_timestamp to struct
signature_check
- Populate the timestamp when not already set if we know about the
payload type
- Pass -Overify-time={payload_timestamp} in the users timezone to all
ssh-keygen verification calls
- Set the payload type when verifying commits
- Add tests for expired, not yet valid and keys having a commit date
outside of key validity as well as within

We documented that with grep.patternType set to default, the "git
grep" command returns to "the default matching behavior" in 84befcd0
(grep: add a grep.patternType configuration setting, 2012-08-03).
The grep.extendedRegexp configuration variable was the only way to
configure the behavior before that, after b22520a3 (grep: allow -E
and -n to be turned on by default via configuration, 2011-03-30)
introduced it.
It is understandable that we referred to the behavior that honors
the older configuration variable as "the default matching"
behavior. It is fairly clear in its log message:
When grep.patternType is set to a value other than "default", the
grep.extendedRegexp setting is ignored. The value of "default" restores
the current default behavior, including the grep.extendedRegexp
behavior.
But when the paragraph is read in isolation by a new person who is
not aware of that backstory (which is the synonym for "most users"),
the "default matching behavior" can be read as "how 'git grep'
behaves without any configuration variables or options", which is
"match the pattern as BRE".
Clarify what the passage means by elaborating what the phrase
"default matching behavior" wanted to mean.

The user.signingKey config for ssh signing supports either a path to a
file containing the key or for the sake of convenience a literal string
with the ssh public key. To differentiate between those two cases we
check if the first few characters contain "ssh-" which is unlikely to be
the start of a path. ssh supports other key types which are not prefixed
with "ssh-" and will currently be treated as a file path and therefore
fail to load. To remedy this we move the prefix check into its own
function and introduce the prefix `key::` for literal ssh keys. This way
we don't need to add new key types when they become available. The
existing `ssh-` prefix is retained for compatibility with current user
configs but removed from the official documentation to discourage its
use.

The "git log" command limits its output to the commits that contain strings
matched by a pattern when the "--grep=<pattern>" option is used, but unlike
output from "git grep -e <pattern>", the matches are not highlighted,
making them harder to spot.
Teach the pretty-printer code to highlight matches from the
"--grep=<pattern>", "--author=<pattern>" and "--committer=<pattern>"
options (to view the last one, you may have to ask for --pretty=fuller).
Also, it must be noted that we are effectively greping the content twice
(because it would be a hassle to rework the existing matching code to do
a /g match and then pass it all down to the coloring code), however it only
slows down "git log --author=^H" on this repository by around 1-2%
(compared to v2.33.0), so it should be a small enough slow down to justify
the addition of the feature.

lines, 2018-04-23) introduce --color-lines and --color-by-age options to
git blame, respectively. While both options are mentioned in usage help,
they aren't documented in git-blame(1). Document them.

In the previous commit, the bitmap writing code learned to propagate
values from an existing hash-cache extension into the bitmap that it is
writing.
Now that that functionality exists, let's expose it by teaching the 'git
multi-pack-index' builtin to respect the `pack.writeBitmapHashCache`
option so that the hash-cache may be written at all.
Two minor points worth noting here:
- The 'git multi-pack-index write' sub-command didn't previously read
any configuration (instead this is handled in the base command). A
separate handler is added here to respect this write-specific
config option.
- I briefly considered adding a 'bitmap_flags' field to the static
options struct, but decided against it since it would require
plumbing through a new parameter to the write_midx_file() function.
Instead, a new MIDX-specific flag is added, which is translated to
the corresponding bitmap one.

To verify a ssh signature we first call ssh-keygen -Y find-principal to
look up the signing principal by their public key from the
allowedSignersFile. If the key is found then we do a verify. Otherwise
we only validate the signature but can not verify the signers identity.
Verification uses the gpg.ssh.allowedSignersFile (see ssh-keygen(1) "ALLOWED
SIGNERS") which contains valid public keys and a principal (usually
user@domain). Depending on the environment this file can be managed by
the individual developer or for example generated by the central
repository server from known ssh keys with push access. This file is usually
stored outside the repository, but if the repository only allows signed
commits/pushes, the user might choose to store it in the repository.
To revoke a key put the public key without the principal prefix into
gpg.ssh.revocationKeyring or generate a KRL (see ssh-keygen(1)
"KEY REVOCATION LISTS"). The same considerations about who to trust for
verification as with the allowedSignersFile apply.
Using SSH CA Keys with these files is also possible. Add
"cert-authority" as key option between the principal and the key to mark
it as a CA and all keys signed by it as valid for this CA.
See "CERTIFICATES" in ssh-keygen(1).

Implements the actual sign_buffer_ssh operation and move some shared
cleanup code into a strbuf function
Set gpg.format = ssh and user.signingkey to either a ssh public key
string (like from an authorized_keys file), or a ssh key file.
If the key file or the config value itself contains only a public key
then the private key needs to be available via ssh-agent.
gpg.ssh.program can be set to an alternative location of ssh-keygen.
A somewhat recent openssh version (8.2p1+) of ssh-keygen is needed for
this feature. Since only ssh-keygen is needed it can this way be
installed seperately without upgrading your system openssh packages.

In preparation for `git-rebase--preserve-merges.sh` entering its after
life, we remove this (deprecated) option that would still rely on it.
To help users transition who still did not receive the memo about the
deprecation, we offer a helpful error message instead of throwing our
hands in the air and saying that we don't know that option, never heard
of it.
