The cryptographic signing using ssh keys can specify literal keys
for keytypes whose name do not begin with the "ssh-" prefix by
using the "key::" prefix mechanism (e.g. "key::ecdsa-sha2-nistp256").

ssh signing: make sign/amend test more resilient
ssh signing: support non ssh-* keytypes

ssh signing: make verify-tag consider key lifetime
ssh signing: make git log verify key lifetime
ssh signing: make verify-commit consider key lifetime

"git worktree add" showed "Preparing worktree" message to the
standard output stream, but when it failed, the message from die()
went to the standard error stream. Depending on the order the
stdio streams are flushed at the program end, this resulted in
confusing output. It has been corrected by sending all the chatty
messages to the standard error stream.

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.

When verbose mode was added to `git worktree list` by 076b444a62
(worktree: teach `list` verbose mode, 2021-01-27), although the
documentation was updated to reflect the new functionality, the
synopsis was overlooked. Correct this minor oversight.

It has long been practice on this project for a command to emit its
primary output to stdout so that it can be captured to a file or sent
down a pipe, and to emit "chatty" messages (such as those reporting
progress) to stderr so that they don't interfere with the primary
output. However, this practice is not necessarily universal; another
common practice is to send only error messages to stderr, and all other
messages to stdout. Therefore, help newcomers out by documenting how
stdout and stderr are used on this project.

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.

There is a formatting issue in "multi-pack-index.html", corresponding
to the nesting bulleted list of a wrong usage in "multi-pack-index.txt"
and this commit fix the problem.
In ASCIIDOC, it doesn't treat an indented character as the
beginning of a sub-list. If we want to write a nested bulleted list, we
could just use ASTERISK without any DASH like:
"
* Level 1 list item
** Level 2 list item
*** Level 3 list item
** Level 2 list item
* Level 1 list item
** Level 2 list item
* Level 1 list item
"
The DASH can be used for bulleted list too, But the DASH is suggested
only to be used as the marker for the first level because the DASH
doesn’t work well or a best practice for nested lists,
like (dash is as level 2 below):
"
* Level 1 list item
- Level 2 list item
* Level 1 list item
"
ASTERISK is recommanded to use because it works intuitively and clearly
("marker length = nesting level") in nested lists, but the DASH can't.
However, when you want to write a non-nested bulleted lists, DASH works
too, like:
"
- Level 1 list item
- Level 1 list item
- Level 1 list item
"

A superfluous ']' was added to the title of the GitHub CI section in
f003a91f5c (SubmittingPatches: replace discussion of Travis with GitHub
Actions, 2021-07-22). Remove it.
While at it, format the URL for a GitHub user's workflow runs of Git
between backticks, since if not Asciidoc formats only the first part,
"https://github.com/<Your", as a link, which is not very useful.

number, but this was not done. Correct this in code & docs.

The current protocol EBNF allows command-request to end with the
capability list, if no command specific arguments follow, but the
protocol requires that after the capability list, there must be a
delim-pkt regardless of the number of command specific arguments. Fixed
the EBNF to match. Both JGit and libgit2's implementation has the
delim-pkt as mandatory. JGit's code is not publicly linkable, but
libgit2 is linked below[1]. As for currently implemented commands on v2
(ls-ref and fetch), the delim packet is already being passed through

This reverts commit f45022dc2fd692fd024f2eb41a86a66f19013d43,
as this is like breakage in the traversal more likely. In a
history with 10 single strand of pearls,
1-->2-->3--...->7-->8-->9-->10
asking "rev-list --unsorted-input 1 10 --not 9 8 7 6 5 4" fails to
paint the bottom 1 uninteresting as the traversal stops, without
completing the propagation of uninteresting bit starting at 4 down
through 3 and 2 to 1.

In some setups, packfile uris act as bearer token. It is not
recommended to expose them plainly in logs, although in special
circunstances (e.g. debug) it makes sense to write them.
Redact the packfile URL paths by default, unless the GIT_TRACE_REDACT
variable is set to false. This mimics the redacting of the Authorization
header in HTTP.
