Currently, the options for the `list` and `show` subcommands are just
listed as `<options>`. This seems to imply, from a cursory glance at the
summary, that they take the stash options listed below. However, reading
more carefully, we see that they take log options and diff options
respectively.
Make it more obvious that they take log and diff options by explicitly
stating this in the subcommand summary.

When trying to find a .mailmap file, we will always look for it in the
current directory. This makes sense in a repository with a working tree,
since we'd always go to the toplevel directory at startup. But for a
bare repository, it can be confusing. With an option like --git-dir (or
$GIT_DIR in the environment), we don't chdir at all, and we'd read
.mailmap from whatever directory you happened to be in before starting
Git.
(Note that --git-dir without specifying a working tree historically
means "the current directory is the root of the working tree", but most
bare repositories will have core.bare set these days, meaning they will
realize there is no working tree at all).
The documentation for gitmailmap(5) says:
If the file `.mailmap` exists at the toplevel of the repository[...]
which likewise reinforces the notion that we are looking in the working
tree.
This patch prevents us from looking for such a file when we're in a bare
repository. This does break something that used to work:
cd bare.git
git cat-file blob HEAD:.mailmap >.mailmap
git shortlog
But that was never advertised in the documentation. And these days we
have mailmap.blob (which defaults to HEAD:.mailmap) to do the same thing
in a much cleaner way.
However, there's one more interesting case: we might not have a
repository at all! The git-shortlog command can be run with git-log
output fed on its stdin, and it will apply the mailmap. In that case, it
probably does make sense to read .mailmap from the current directory.
This patch will continue to do so.
That leads to one even weirder case: if you run git-shortlog to process
stdin, the input _could_ be from a different repository entirely. Should
we respect the in-tree .mailmap then? Probably yes. Whatever the source
of the input, if shortlog is running in a repository, the documentation
claims that we'd read the .mailmap from its top-level (and of course
it's reasonably likely that it _is_ from the same repo, and the user
just preferred to run git-log and git-shortlog separately for whatever
reason).
The included test covers these cases, and we now document the "no repo"
case explicitly.
We also add a test that confirms we find a top-level ".mailmap" even
when we start in a subdirectory of the working tree. This worked both
before and after this commit, but we never tested it explicitly (it
works because we always chdir to the top-level of the working tree if
there is one).

It is valuable to collect loose refs into a more compressed form. This
is typically the packed-refs file, although this could be the reftable
in the future. Having packed refs can be extremely valuable in repos
with many tags or remote branches that are not modified by the local
user, but still are necessary for other queries.
For instance, with many exploded refs, commands such as
git describe --tags --exact-match HEAD
can be very slow (multiple seconds). This command in particular is used
by terminal prompts to show when a detatched HEAD is pointing to an
existing tag, so having it be slow causes significant delays for users.
Add a new 'pack-refs' maintenance task. It runs 'git pack-refs --all
--prune' to move loose refs into a packed form. For now, that is the
packed-refs file, but could adjust to other file formats in the future.
This is the first of several sub-tasks of the 'gc' task that could be
extracted to their own tasks. In this process, we should not change the
behavior of the 'gc' task since that remains the default way to keep
repositories maintained. Creating a new task for one of these sub-tasks
only provides more customization options for those choosing to not use
the 'gc' task. It is certainly possible to have both the 'gc' and
'pack-refs' tasks enabled and run regularly. While they may repeat
effort, they do not conflict in a destructive way.
The 'auto_condition' function pointer is left NULL for now. We could
extend this in the future to have a condition check if pack-refs should
be run during 'git maintenance run --auto'.

Add a per-tool override flag so that users may enable the flag for one
tool and disable it for another by setting
`mergetool.<tool>.hideResolved` to `false`.
In addition, the author or maintainer of a mergetool may optionally
override the default `hideResolved` value for that mergetool. If the
`mergetools/<tool>` shell script contains a `hide_resolved_enabled`
function it will be called when the mergetool is invoked and the return
value will be used as the default for the `hideResolved` flag.
hide_resolved_enabled () {
return 1
}
Disabling may be desirable if the mergetool wants or needs access to the
original, unmodified 'LOCAL' and 'REMOTE' versions of the conflicted
file. For example:
- A tool may use a custom conflict resolution algorithm and prefer to
ignore the results of Git's conflict resolution.
- A tool may want to visually compare/constrast the version of the file
from before the merge (saved to 'LOCAL', 'REMOTE', and 'BASE') with
Git's conflict resolution results (saved to 'MERGED').

This is preparation for the following commit where we need to source the
mergetool shell script to look for overrides before `run_merge_tool` is
called. Previously `run_merge_tool` both sourced that script and invoked
the mergetool.
In the case of the following commit, we need the result of the
`hide_resolved` override, if present, before we actually run
`run_merge_tool`.
The new `initialize_merge_tool` wrapper is exposed and documented as
a public interface for consistency with the existing `run_merge_tool`
which is also public. Although `setup_tool` could instead be exposed
directly, the related `setup_user_tool` would probably also want to be
elevated to match and this felt the cleanest to me.

The purpose of a mergetool is to help the user resolve any conflicts
that Git cannot automatically resolve. If there is a conflict that must
be resolved manually Git will write a file named MERGED which contains
everything Git was able to resolve by itself and also everything that it
was not able to resolve wrapped in conflict markers.
One way to think of MERGED is as a two- or three-way diff. If each
"side" of the conflict markers is separately extracted an external tool
can represent those conflicts as a side-by-side diff.
However many mergetools instead diff LOCAL and REMOTE both of which
contain versions of the file from before the merge. Since the conflicts
Git resolved automatically are not present it forces the user to
manually re-resolve those conflicts. Some mergetools also show MERGED
but often only for reference and not as the focal point to resolve the
conflicts.
This adds a `mergetool.hideResolved` flag that will overwrite LOCAL and
REMOTE with each corresponding "side" of a conflicted file and thus hide
all conflicts that Git was able to resolve itself. Overwriting these
files will immediately benefit any mergetool that uses them without
requiring any changes to the tool.
No adverse effects were noted in a small survey of popular mergetools[1]
so this behavior defaults to `true`. However it can be globally disabled
by setting `mergetool.hideResolved` to `false`.

When comparing commit ranges, one is frequently interested only in one
side, such as asking the question "Has this patch that I submitted to
the Git mailing list been applied?": one would only care about the part
of the output that corresponds to the commits in a local branch.
To make that possible, imitate the `git rev-list` options `--left-only`
and `--right-only`.

Teach Git to use the "unborn" feature introduced in a previous patch as
follows: Git will always send the "unborn" argument if it is supported
by the server. During "git clone", if cloning an empty repository, Git
will use the new information to determine the local branch to create. In
all other cases, Git will ignore it.

When cloning, we choose the default branch based on the remote HEAD.
But if there is no remote HEAD reported (which could happen if the
target of the remote HEAD is unborn), we'll fall back to using our local
init.defaultBranch. Traditionally this hasn't been a big deal, because
most repos used "master" as the default. But these days it is likely to
cause confusion if the server and client implementations choose
different values (e.g., if the remote started with "main", we may choose
"master" locally, create commits there, and then the user is surprised
when they push to "master" and not "main").
To solve this, the remote needs to communicate the target of the HEAD
symref, even if it is unborn, and "git clone" needs to use this
information.
Currently, symrefs that have unborn targets (such as in this case) are
not communicated by the protocol. Teach Git to advertise and support the
"unborn" feature in "ls-refs" (by default, this is advertised, but
server administrators may turn this off through the lsrefs.unborn
config). This feature indicates that "ls-refs" supports the "unborn"
argument; when it is specified, "ls-refs" will send the HEAD symref with
the name of its unborn target.
This change is only for protocol v2. A similar change for protocol v0
would require independent protocol design (there being no analogous
position to signal support for "unborn") and client-side plumbing of the
data required, so the scope of this patch set is limited to protocol v2.
The client side will be updated to use this in a subsequent commit.
