Git uses the 'core.commitGraph' configuration value to control whether
or not the commit graph is used when parsing commits or performing a
traversal.
Now that commit-graphs can also contain a section for changed-path Bloom
filters, administrators that already have commit-graphs may find it
convenient to use those graphs without relying on their changed-path
Bloom filters. This can happen, for example, during a staged roll-out,
or in the event of an incident.
Introduce 'commitGraph.readChangedPaths' to control whether or not Bloom
filters are read. Note that this configuration is independent from both:
- 'core.commitGraph', to allow flexibility in using all parts of a
commit-graph _except_ for its Bloom filters.
- The '--changed-paths' option for 'git commit-graph write', to allow
reading and writing Bloom filters to be controlled independently.
When the variable is set, pretend as if no Bloom data was specified at
all. This avoids adding additional special-casing outside of the
commit-graph internals.

In Git 2.28, we stopped special casing 'master' when producing the
default merge message by just removing the code to squelch "into
'master'" at the end of the message.
Introduce multi-valued merge.suppressDest configuration variable
that gives a set of globs to match against the name of the branch
into which the merge is being made, to let users specify for which
branch fmt-merge-msg's output should be shortened. When it is not
set, 'master' is used as the sole value of the variable by default.
The above move mostly reverts the pre-2.28 default in repositories
that have no relevant configuration.
Add a few tests to protect the behaviour with the new configuration
variable from future regression.

The index-pack documentation explicitly states that the pack
name is derived from the sorted list of object names, but
since commit 1190a1acf800 ("pack-objects: name pack files
after trailer hash") that isn't true anymore.
Be less explicit in the docs as to what the exact output is,
and just say that it's whatever goes into the pack name.
Also update a comment on write_idx_file() since it no longer
modifies the sha1 variable (it's const now anyway), as noted
by Junio.

* js/pu-to-seen:
gitworkflows.txt: fix broken subsection underline

AsciiDoctor renders the "~~~~~~~~~" literally. That's not our intention:
it is supposed to indicate a level 2 subsection. In 828197de8f ("docs:
adjust for the recent rename of `pu` to `seen`", 2020-06-25), the length
of this section header grew by two characters but we didn't adjust the
number of ~ characters accordingly. AsciiDoc handles this discrepancy ok
and still picks this up as a subsection title, but Asciidoctor is not as
forgiving.

It's useful and efficient to be able to get the size of the
contents directly without having to pipe through `wc -c`.
Also the result of the following:
`git for-each-ref --format='%(contents)' refs/heads/my-branch | wc -c`
is off by one as `git for-each-ref` appends a newline character
after the contents, which can be seen by comparing its output
with the output from `git cat-file`.
As with %(contents), %(contents:size) is silently ignored, if a
ref points to something other than a commit or a tag:
```
$ git update-ref refs/mytrees/first HEAD^{tree}
$ git for-each-ref --format='%(contents)' refs/mytrees/first
$ git for-each-ref --format='%(contents:size)' refs/mytrees/first

The description of `git diff` goes through several different invocations
(numbering added by me):
1. git diff [<options>] [--] [<path>...]
2. git diff [<options>] --no-index [--] <path> <path>
3. git diff [<options>] --cached [<commit>] [--] [<path>...]
4. git diff [<options>] <commit> [--] [<path>...]
5. git diff [<options>] <commit> <commit> [--] [<path>...]
6. git diff [<options>] <commit>..<commit> [--] [<path>...]
7. git diff [<options>] <commit> <commit>... <commit> [--] [<path>...]
8. git diff [<options>] <commit>...<commit> [--] [<path>...]
It then goes on to say that "all of the <commit> in the above
description, except in the last two forms that use '..' notations, can
be any <tree>". The "last two" actually refers to 6 and 8. This got out
of sync in commit b7e10b2ca2 ("Documentation: usage for diff combined
commits", 2020-06-12) which added item 7 to the mix.
As a further complication, after b7e10b2ca2 we also have some potential
confusion around "the '..' notation". The "..[.]" in items 6 and 8 are
part of the rev notation, whereas the "..." in item 7 is manpage
language for "one or more".
Move item 6 down, i.e., to between 7 and 8, to restore the ordering.
Because 6 refers to 5 ("synonymous to the previous form") we need to
tweak the language a bit.
An added bonus of this commit is that we're trying to steer users away
from `git diff <commit>..<commit>` and moving it further down probably
doesn't hurt.

Commit b7e10b2ca2 ("Documentation: usage for diff combined commits",
2020-06-12) modified the synopsis by adding an optional "[<commit>...]"
to
'git diff' [<options>] <commit> <commit> [--] [<path>...]
to effectively add
'git diff' [<options>] <commit> <commit>... <commit> [--] [<path>...]
as another valid invocation. Which makes sense.
Further down, in the description, it left the existing entry for
'git diff' [<options>] <commit> <commit> [--] [<path>...]
intact and added a new entry on
'git diff' [<options>] <commit> [<commit>...] <commit> [--] [<path>...]
where it says that "[t]his form is to view the results of a merge
commit" and details how "the first listed commit must be the merge
itself". But one possible instantiation of this form is `git diff
<commit> <commit>` for which the added text doesn't really apply.
Remove the brackets so that we lose this overlap between the two
descriptions. We can still use the more compact representation in the
synopsis.

Let's avoid a big dense paragraph by using an unordered
list for the %(contents:XXXX) format specifiers.
While at it let's also make the following improvements:
- Let's not describe %(contents) using "complete message"
as it's not clear what an incomplete message is.
- Let's improve how the "subject" and "body" are
described.
- Let's state that "signature" is only available for
tag objects.

"fetch.writeCommitGraph" was enabled when "feature.experimental" is

We don't give a "::" for the list separator, but just a single ":". This
ends up rendering literally, "--apply: Use applying strategies ...". As
a follow-on error, the list continuation, "+", also ends up rendering
literally (because we don't have a list).
This was introduced in 52eb738d6b ("rebase: add an --am option",
2020-02-15) and survived the rename in 10cdb9f38a ("rebase: rename the
two primary rebase backends", 2020-02-15).

The fetch.writeCommitGraph feature makes fetches write out a commit
graph file for the newly downloaded pack on fetch. This improves the
performance of various commands that would perform a revision walk and
eventually ought to be the default for everyone. To prepare for that
future, it's enabled by default for users that set
feature.experimental=true to experience such future defaults.
Alas, for --unshallow fetches from a shallow clone it runs into a
snag: by the time Git has fetched the new objects and is writing a
commit graph, it has performed a revision walk and r->parsed_objects
contains information about the shallow boundary from *before* the
fetch. The commit graph writing code is careful to avoid writing a
commit graph file in shallow repositories, but the new state is not
shallow, and the result is that from that point on, commands like "git
log" make use of a newly written commit graph file representing a
fictional history with the old shallow boundary.
We could fix this by making the commit graph writing code more careful
to avoid writing a commit graph that could have used any grafts or
shallow state, but it is possible that there are other pieces of
mutated state that fetch's commit graph writing code may be relying
on. So disable it in the feature.experimental configuration.
Google developers have been running in this configuration (by setting
fetch.writeCommitGraph=false in the system config) to work around this
bug since it was discovered in April. Once the fix lands, we'll
enable fetch.writeCommitGraph=true again to give it some early testing
before rolling out to a wider audience.
In other words:
- this patch only affects behavior with feature.experimental=true
- it makes feature.experimental match the configuration Google has
been using for the last few months, meaning it would leave users in
a better tested state than without it
- this should improve testing for other features guarded by
feature.experimental, by making feature.experimental safer to use

When displaying cat-file usage, the fact that a <format> can
be specified is only visible when lookling at the --batch and
--batch-check options which are shown like this:
--batch[=<format>] show info and content of objects fed from the standard input
--batch-check[=<format>]
show info about objects fed from the standard input
It seems more coherent and improves discovery to also show it
on the usage line.
In the documentation the DESCRIPTION tells us that "The output
format can be overridden using the optional <format> argument",
but we can't see the <format> argument in the SYNOPSIS above
the description which is confusing.

The changed-path Bloom filters were released in v2.27.0, but have a
significant drawback. A user can opt-in to writing the changed-path
filters using the "--changed-paths" option to "git commit-graph write"
but the next write will drop the filters unless that option is
specified.
This becomes even more important when considering the interaction with
gc.writeCommitGraph (on by default) or fetch.writeCommitGraph (part of
features.experimental). These config options trigger commit-graph writes
that the user did not signal, and hence there is no --changed-paths
option available.
Allow a user that opts-in to the changed-path filters to persist the
property of "my commit-graph has changed-path filters" automatically. A
user can drop filters using the --no-changed-paths option.
In the process, we need to be extremely careful to match the Bloom
filter settings as specified by the commit-graph. This will allow future
versions of Git to customize these settings, and the version with this
change will persist those settings as commit-graphs are rewritten on
top.
Use the trace2 API to signal the settings used during the write, and
check that output in a test after manually adjusting the correct bytes
in the commit-graph file.
