After making a change to the documentation, it's easy to
forget to check the rendered version to make sure it was
formatted as you intended. And simply doing a diff between
the two built versions is less trivial than you might hope:
- diffing the roff or html output isn't particularly
readable; what we really care about is what the end user
will see
- you have to tweak a few build variables to avoid
spurious differences (e.g., version numbers, build
times)
Let's provide a script that builds and installs the manpages
for two commits, renders the results using "man", and diffs
the result. Since this is time-consuming, we'll also do our
best to avoid repeated work, keeping intermediate results
between runs.
Some of this could probably be made a little less ugly if we
built support into Documentation/Makefile. But by relying
only on "make install-man" working, this script should work
for generating a diff between any two versions, whether they
include this script or not.

Add a server-side knob to skip commits in exponential/fibbonacci

Change the handling of fetch.negotiationAlgorithm=<str> to error out
on unknown strings, i.e. everything except "default" or "skipping".
This changes the behavior added in 42cc7485a2 ("negotiator/skipping:
skip commits during fetch", 2018-07-16) which would ignore all unknown
values and silently fall back to the "default" value.
For a feature like this it's much better to produce an error than
proceed. We don't want users to debug some amazingly slow fetch that
should benefit from "skipping", only to find that they'd forgotten to
deploy the new git version on that particular machine.

Test and document that the {fetch,receive}.fsck.* family of variables
doesn't fall back on the corresponding .fsck.* variables.
This was alluded to in the existing documentation by saying that
"receive" looks at receive.fsck.* and "fsck" looks at fsck.* etc., but
it wasn't explicitly stated that there was no fallback, and if you'd
e.g. like to configure the skipList you need to do that for all three.

Implement support for fetch.fsck.* corresponding with the existing
receive.fsck.*. This allows for pedantically cloning repositories with
specific issues without turning off fetch.fsckObjects.
One such repository is https://github.com/robbyrussell/oh-my-zsh.git
which before this change will emit this error when cloned with
fetch.fsckObjects:
error: object 2b7227859263b6aabcc28355b0b994995b7148b6: zeroPaddedFilemode: contains zero-padded file modes
fatal: Error in object
fatal: index-pack failed
Now with fetch.fsck.zeroPaddedFilemode=warn we'll warn about that
issue, but the clone will succeed:
warning: object 2b7227859263b6aabcc28355b0b994995b7148b6: zeroPaddedFilemode: contains zero-padded file modes
warning: object a18c4d13c2a5fa2d4ecd5346c50e119b999b807d: zeroPaddedFilemode: contains zero-padded file modes
warning: object 84df066176c8da3fd59b13731a86d90f4f1e5c9d: zeroPaddedFilemode: contains zero-padded file modes
The motivation for this is to be able to turn on fetch.fsckObjects
globally across a fleet of computers but still be able to manually
clone various legacy repositories by either white-listing specific
issues, or better yet whitelist specific objects.
The use of --git-dir=* instead of -C in the tests could be considered
somewhat archaic, but the tests I'm adding here are duplicating the
corresponding receive.* tests with as few changes as possible.

Change the transfer.fsckObjects documentation to explicitly note the
unique security and/or corruption issues fetch.fsckObjects suffers
from, since it doesn't have a quarantine environment.
This was already alluded to in the existing documentation, but let's
spell it out so there's no confusion here, and give a concrete example
of how to work around this limitation.
Let's also prominently note that this is considered to be a limitation
of the current implementation, rather than something that's intended
and by design, since we might change this in the future.

The existing documentation led the user to believe that all we were
doing were basic reachability sanity checks, but that hasn't been true
for a very long time. Update the description to match reality, and
note the caveat that there's a quarantine for accepting pushes, but
not for fetching.
Also mention that the fsck checks for security issues, which was my
initial motivation for writing this fetch.fsck.* series.

The documentation for the fsck.<msg-id> and receive.fsck.<msg-id>
variables was mostly duplicated in two places, with fsck.<msg-id>
making no mention of the corresponding receive.fsck.<msg-id>, and the
same for fsck.skipList.
I spent quite a lot of time today wondering why setting the
fsck.<msg-id> variant wasn't working to clone a legacy repository (not
that that would have worked anyway, but a subsequent patch implements
fetch.fsck.<msg-id>).
Rectify this situation by describing the feature in general terms
under the fsck.* documentation, and make the receive.fsck.*
documentation refer to those variables instead.
This documentation was initially added in 2becf00ff7 ("fsck: support
demoting errors to warnings", 2015-06-22) and 4b55b9b479 ("fsck:
document the new receive.fsck.<msg-id> options", 2015-06-22).

The --color-moved "dimmed_zebra" mode (with an underscore) is an
anachronism. Most options and modes are hyphenated. It is more difficult
to type and somewhat more difficult to read than those which are
hyphenated. Therefore, rename it to "dimmed-zebra", and nominally
deprecate "dimmed_zebra".

The option of --color-moved has proven to be useful as observed on the
mailing list. However when refactoring sometimes the indentation changes,
for example when partitioning a functions into smaller helper functions
the code usually mostly moved around except for a decrease in indentation.
To just review the moved code ignoring the change in indentation, a mode
to ignore spaces in the move detection as implemented in a previous patch
would be enough. However the whole move coloring as motivated in commit
2e2d5ac (diff.c: color moved lines differently, 2017-06-30), brought
up the notion of the reviewer being able to trust the move of a "block".
As there are languages such as python, which depend on proper relative
indentation for the control flow of the program, ignoring any white space
change in a block would not uphold the promises of 2e2d5ac that allows
reviewers to pay less attention to the inside of a block, as inside
the reviewer wants to assume the same program flow.
This new mode of white space ignorance will take this into account and will
only allow the same white space changes per line in each block. This patch
even allows only for the same change at the beginning of the lines.
As this is a white space mode, it is made exclusive to other white space
modes in the move detection.
This patch brings some challenges, related to the detection of blocks.
We need a wide net to catch the possible moved lines, but then need to
narrow down to check if the blocks are still intact. Consider this
example (ignoring block sizes):
- A
- B
- C
+ A
+ B
+ C
At the beginning of a block when checking if there is a counterpart
for A, we have to ignore all space changes. However at the following
lines we have to check if the indent change stayed the same.
Checking if the indentation change did stay the same, is done by computing
the indentation change by the difference in line length, and then assume
the change is only in the beginning of the longer line, the common tail
is the same. That is why the test contains lines like:
- <TAB> A
...
+ A <TAB>
...
As the first line starting a block is caught using a compare function that
ignores white spaces unlike the rest of the block, where the white space
delta is taken into account for the comparison, we also have to think about
the following situation:
- A
- B
- A
- B
+ A
+ B
+ A
+ B
When checking if the first A (both in the + and - lines) is a start of
a block, we have to check all 'A' and record all the white space deltas
such that we can find the example above to be just one block that is
indented.

We can already disable replace refs using a command line
option or environment variable, but those are awkward to
apply universally. Let's add a config option to do the same
thing.
That raises the question of why one might want to do so
universally. The answer is that replace refs violate the
immutability of objects. For instance, if you wanted to
cache the diff between commit XYZ and its parent, then in
theory that never changes; the hash XYZ represents the total
state. But replace refs violate that; pushing up a new ref
may create a completely new diff.
The obvious "if it hurts, don't do it" answer is not to
create replace refs if you're doing this kind of caching.
But for a site hosting arbitrary repositories, they may want
to allow users to share replace refs with each other, but
not actually respect them on the site (because the caching
is more important than the replace feature).
