"git clone" learned the "--no-tags" option not to fetch all tags
initially, and also set up the tagopt not to follow any tags in
subsequent fetches.

tests: rename a test having to do with shallow submodules
clone: add a --no-tags option to clone without tags
tests: change "cd ... && git fetch" to "cd &&\n\tgit fetch"

The colors in which "git status --short --branch" showed the names
of the current branch and its remote-tracking branch are now
configurable.

Git's configuration system works by reading multiple configuration
files in order, from general to specific:
- first, the system configuration /etc/gitconfig
- then the user's configuration (~/.gitconfig or ~/.config/git/config)
- then the repository configuration (.git/config)
For single-valued configuration items, the latest value wins. For
multi-valued configuration items, values accumulate in that order.
For example, this allows setting a credential helper globally in
~/.gitconfig that git will try to use in all repositories, regardless
of whether they additionally provide another helper. This is usually
a nice thing --- e.g. I can install helpers to use my OS keychain and
to cache credentials for a short period of time globally.
Sometimes people want to be able to override an inherited setting.
For the credential.helper setting, this is done by setting the
configuration item to empty before giving it a new value. This is
already documented but the documentation is hard to find ---
git-config(1) says to look at gitcredentials(7) and the config
reference in gitcredentials(7) doesn't mention this issue.
Move the documentation to the config reference to make it easier to
find.

Add a --no-tags option to clone without fetching any tags.
Without this change there's no easy way to clone a repository without
also fetching its tags.
When supplying --single-branch the primary remote branch will be
cloned, but in addition tags will be followed & retrieved. Now
--no-tags can be added --single-branch to clone a repository without
tags, and which only tracks a single upstream branch.
This option works without --single-branch as well, and will do a
normal clone but not fetch any tags.
Many git commands pay some fixed overhead as a function of the number
of references. E.g. creating ~40k tags in linux.git will cause a
command like `git log -1 >/dev/null` to run in over a second instead
of in a matter of milliseconds, in addition numerous other things will
slow down, e.g. "git log <TAB>" with the bash completion will slowly
show ~40k references instead of 1.
The user might want to avoid all of that overhead to simply use a
repository like that to browse the "master" branch, or something like
a CI tool might want to keep that one branch up-to-date without caring
about any other references.
Without this change the only way of accomplishing this was either by
manually tweaking the config in a fresh repository:
git init git &&
cat >git/.git/config <<EOF &&
[remote "origin"]
url = git@github.com:git/git.git
tagOpt = --no-tags
fetch = +refs/heads/master:refs/remotes/origin/master
[branch "master"]
remote = origin
merge = refs/heads/master
EOF
cd git &&
git pull
Which requires hardcoding the "master" name, which may not be the main
--single-branch would have retrieved, or alternatively by setting
tagOpt=--no-tags right after cloning & deleting any existing tags:
git clone --single-branch git@github.com:git/git.git &&
cd git &&
git config remote.origin.tagOpt --no-tags &&
git tag -l | xargs git tag -d
Which of course was also subtly buggy if --branch was pointed at a
tag, leaving the user in a detached head:
git clone --single-branch --branch v2.12.0 git@github.com:git/git.git &&
cd git &&
git config remote.origin.tagOpt --no-tags &&
git tag -l | xargs git tag -d
Now all this complexity becomes the much simpler:
git clone --single-branch --no-tags git@github.com:git/git.git
Or in the case of cloning a single tag "branch":
git clone --single-branch --branch v2.12.0 --no-tags git@github.com:git/git.git

Listing the specific hooks might feel verbose but without it the
reader is left to wonder which hooks are triggered during the
push. Something which is not immediately obvious when only trying
to find out where the hook is executed.

Add color config slots to be used in the status short-format when

The original NIST press release linked here is no longer
available. But it was just a one-page summary of a larger
planning report; we can link to the report and point people
to the executive summary, which contains the same
information.
Ideally we'd cite it with a DOI, but I couldn't dig one up
for this particular document. I found many URLs pointing to
this report, but they all end up redirecting to this one
(and it looks somewhat official).

git-archimport has an option to register archives at
mirrors.sourcecontrol.net. The sourcecontrol.net domain
still exists, but that hostname no longer exists.
That means this feature is presumably broken. I'll leave the
examination and modification of that to people who might
actually use archimport. But in the meantime, let's wrap the
reference in the documentation in backticks, which will
avoid turning it into a broken link (and thus polluting
linkchecker results).
