`git worktree add` (without --force) errors out when given a path
that is already registered as a worktree and the path is missing on
disk. But the `cmd` and `path` strings are switched on the error

The "git worktree list" shows the absolute path to the working tree,
the commit that is checked out and the name of the branch. It is not
immediately obvious which of the worktrees, if any, are locked.
"git worktree remove" refuses to remove a locked worktree with
an error message. If "git worktree list" told which worktrees
are locked in its output, the user would not even attempt to
remove such a worktree, or would realize that
"git worktree remove -f -f <path>" is required.
Teach "git worktree list" to append "locked" to its output.
The output from the command becomes like so:
$ git worktree list
/path/to/main abc123 [master]
/path/to/worktree 456def (detached HEAD)
/path/to/locked-worktree 123abc (detached HEAD) locked

Like `git switch` and `git checkout`, `git worktree add` can check out a
branch or set up a detached HEAD. However, unlike those other commands,
`git worktree add` does not understand -d as shorthand for --detach,
which may confound users accustomed to using -d for this purpose.
Address this shortcoming by teaching `add` to recognize -d for --detach,
thus bringing it in line with the other commands.

The .git/worktrees/<id>/gitdir file points at the location of a linked
worktree's .git file. Its content must be of the form
/path/to/worktree/.git (from which the location of the worktree itself
can be derived by stripping the "/.git" suffix). If the gitdir file is
deleted or becomes corrupted or outdated, then Git will be unable to
find the linked worktree. An easy way for the gitdir file to become
outdated is for the user to move the worktree manually (without using
"git worktree move"). Although it is possible to manually update the
gitdir file to reflect the new linked worktree location, doing so
requires a level of knowledge about worktree internals beyond what a
user should be expected to know offhand.
Therefore, teach "git worktree repair" how to repair broken or outdated
.git/worktrees/<id>/gitdir files automatically. (For this to work, the
command must either be invoked from within the worktree whose gitdir
file requires repair, or from within the main or any linked worktree by
providing the path of the broken worktree as an argument to "git
worktree repair".)

The .git file in a linked worktree is a "gitfile" which points back to
the .git/worktrees/<id> entry in the main worktree or bare repository.
If a worktree's .git file is deleted or becomes corrupted or outdated,
then the linked worktree won't know how to find the repository or any of
its own administrative files (such as 'index', 'HEAD', etc.). An easy
way for the .git file to become outdated is for the user to move the
main worktree or bare repository. Although it is possible to manually
update each linked worktree's .git file to reflect the new repository
location, doing so requires a level of knowledge about worktree
internals beyond what a user should be expected to know offhand.
Therefore, teach "git worktree repair" how to repair broken or outdated
worktree .git files automatically. (For this to work, the command must
be invoked from within the main worktree or bare repository, or from
within a worktree which has not become disconnected from the repository
-- such as one which was created after the repository was moved.)

Worktree administrative files can become corrupted or outdated due to
external factors. Although, it is often possible to recover from such
situations by hand-tweaking these files, doing so requires intimate
knowledge of worktree internals. While information necessary to make
such repairs manually can be obtained from git-worktree.txt and
gitrepository-layout.txt, we can assist users more directly by teaching
git-worktree how to repair its administrative files itself (at least to
some extent). Therefore, add a "git worktree repair" command which
attempts to correct common problems which may arise due to factors
beyond Git's control.
At this stage, the "repair" command is a mere skeleton; subsequent
commits will flesh out the functionality.

We allocate a child_env strvec but never free its memory. Instead, let's
just use the strvec that our child_process struct provides, which is
cleaned up automatically when we run the command.
And while we're moving the initialization of the child_process around,
let's switch it to use the official init function (zero-initializing it
works OK, since strvec is happy enough with that, but it sets a bad
example).

The "argc" and "argv" names made sense when the struct was argv_array,
but now they're just confusing. Let's rename them to "nr" (which we use
for counts elsewhere) and "v" (which is rather terse, but reads well
when combined with typical variable names like "args.v").
Note that we have to update all of the callers immediately. Playing
tricks with the preprocessor is hard here, because we wouldn't want to

Code which split an argv_array call across multiple lines, like:
argv_array_pushl(&args, "one argument",
"another argument", "and more",
NULL);
was recently mechanically renamed to use strvec, which results in
mis-matched indentation like:
strvec_pushl(&args, "one argument",
"another argument", "and more",
NULL);
Let's fix these up to align the arguments with the opening paren. I did
this manually by sifting through the results of:
git jump grep 'strvec_.*,$'
and liberally applying my editor's auto-format. Most of the changes are
of the form shown above, though I also normalized a few that had
originally used a single-tab indentation (rather than our usual style of
aligning with the open paren). I also rewrapped a couple of obvious
cases (e.g., where previously too-long lines became short enough to fit
on one), but I wasn't aggressive about it. In cases broken to three or
more lines, the grouping of arguments is sometimes meaningful, and it
wasn't worth my time or reviewer time to ponder each case individually.

We eventually want to drop the argv_array name and just use strvec
consistently. There's no particular reason we have to do it all at once,
or care about interactions between converted and unconverted bits.
Because of our preprocessor compat layer, the names are interchangeable
to the compiler (so even a definition and declaration using different
names is OK).
This patch converts all of the files in builtin/ to keep the diff to a
manageable size.
The conversion was done purely mechanically with:
git ls-files '*.c' '*.h' |
xargs perl -i -pe '
s/ARGV_ARRAY/STRVEC/g;
s/argv_array/strvec/g;
'
and then selectively staging files with "git add builtin/". We'll deal
with any indentation/style fallouts separately.

"git worktree add" takes special care to avoid creating a new worktree
at a location already registered to an existing worktree even if that
worktree is missing (which can happen, for instance, if the worktree
resides on removable media). "git worktree move", however, is not so
careful when validating the destination location and will happily move
the source worktree atop the location of a missing worktree. This leads
to the anomalous situation of multiple worktrees being associated with
the same path, which is expressly forbidden by design. For example:
$ git clone foo.git
$ cd foo
$ git worktree add ../bar
$ git worktree add ../baz
$ rm -rf ../bar
$ git worktree move ../baz ../bar
$ git worktree list
.../foo beefd00f [master]
.../bar beefd00f [bar]
.../bar beefd00f [baz]
$ git worktree remove ../bar
fatal: validation failed, cannot remove working tree:
'.../bar' does not point back to '.git/worktrees/bar'
Fix this shortcoming by enhancing "git worktree move" to perform the
same additional validation of the destination directory as done by "git
worktree add".
While at it, add a test to verify that "git worktree move" won't move a
worktree atop an existing (non-worktree) path -- a restriction which has
always been in place but was never tested.

"git worktree prune" detects when multiple entries are associated with
the same path and prunes the duplicates, however, it does not detect
when a linked worktree points at the path of the main worktree.
Although "git worktree add" disallows creating a new worktree with the
same path as the main worktree, such a case can arise outside the
control of Git even without the user mucking with .git/worktree/<id>/
administrative files. For instance:
$ git clone foo.git
$ git -C foo worktree add ../bar
$ rm -rf bar
$ mv foo bar
$ git -C bar worktree list
.../bar deadfeeb [master]
.../bar deadfeeb [bar]

A fundamental restriction of linked working trees is that there must
only ever be a single worktree associated with a particular path, thus
"git worktree add" explicitly disallows creation of a new worktree at
the same location as an existing registered worktree. Nevertheless,
users can still "shoot themselves in the foot" by mucking with
administrative files in .git/worktree/<id>/. Worse, "git worktree move"
is careless[1] and allows a worktree to be moved atop a registered but
missing worktree (which can happen, for instance, if the worktree is on
removable media). For instance:
$ git clone foo.git
$ cd foo
$ git worktree add ../bar
$ git worktree add ../baz
$ rm -rf ../bar
$ git worktree move ../baz ../bar
$ git worktree list
.../foo beefd00f [master]
.../bar beefd00f [bar]
.../bar beefd00f [baz]
Help users recover from this form of corruption by teaching "git
worktree prune" to detect when multiple worktrees are associated with
the same path.

For each worktree removed by "git worktree prune", it reports the reason
for the removal. All reasons share the common prefix "Removing
worktrees/%s:". As new removal reasons are added, this prefix needs to
be duplicated, which is error-prone and potentially cumbersome.
Therefore, factor out the common prefix.
Although this change seems to increase the "sentence lego quotient", it
should be reasonably safe, as the reason for removal is a distinct
clause, not strictly related to the prefix. Moreover, the "worktrees" in
"Removing worktrees/%s:" is a path literal which ought not be localized,
so by factoring it out, we can more easily avoid exposing that path
fragment to translators.

Returning a shared buffer invites very subtle bugs due to reentrancy or
multi-threading, as demonstrated by the previous patch.
There was an unfinished effort to abolish this [1].
Let's finally rid of `real_path()`, using `strbuf_realpath()` instead.
This patch uses a local `strbuf` for most places where `real_path()` was
previously called.
However, two places return the value of `real_path()` to the caller. For
them, a `static` local `strbuf` was added, effectively pushing the
problem one level higher:
read_gitfile_gently()
get_superproject_working_tree()

"git worktree add <path>" performs various checks before approving
<path> as a valid location for the new worktree. Aside from ensuring
that <path> does not already exist, one of the questions it asks is
whether <path> is already a registered worktree. To perform this check,
it queries find_worktree() and disallows the "add" operation if
find_worktree() finds a match for <path>. As a convenience, however,
find_worktree() casts an overly wide net to allow users to identify
worktrees by shorthand in order to keep typing to a minimum. For
instance, it performs suffix matching which, given subtrees "foo/bar"
and "foo/baz", can correctly select the latter when asked only for
"baz".
"add" validation knows the exact path it is interrogating, so this sort
of heuristic-based matching is, at best, questionable for this use-case
and, at worst, may may accidentally interpret <path> as matching an
existing worktree and incorrectly report it as already registered even
when it isn't. (In fact, validate_worktree_add() already contains a
special case to avoid accidentally matching against the main worktree,
precisely due to this problem.)
Avoid the problem of potential accidental matching against an existing
worktree by instead taking advantage of find_worktree_by_path() which
matches paths deterministically, without applying any sort of magic
shorthand matching performed by find_worktree().

Uninitialized submodules have nothing valueable for us to be worried
about. They are just SHA-1. Let "worktree remove" and "worktree move"
continue in this case so that people can still use multiple worktrees
on repos with optional submodules that are never populated, like
sha1collisiondetection in git.git when checked out by doc-diff script.
Note that for "worktree remove", it is possible that a user
initializes a submodule (*), makes some commits (but not push), then
deinitializes it. At that point, the submodule is unpopulated, but the
precious new commits are still in
$GIT_COMMON_DIR/worktrees/<worktree>/modules/<submodule>
directory and we should not allow removing the worktree or we lose
those commits forever. The new directory check is added to prevent
this.
(*) yes they are screwed anyway by doing this since "git submodule"
would add submodule.* in $GIT_COMMON_DIR/config, which is shared
across multiple worktrees. But it does not mean we let them be
screwed even more.

For safety, "git worktree add <path>" will refuse to add a new
worktree at <path> if <path> is already associated with a worktree
entry, even if <path> is missing (for instance, has been deleted or
resides on non-mounted removable media or network share). The typical
way to re-create a worktree at <path> in such a situation is either to
prune all "broken" entries ("git worktree prune") or to selectively
remove the worktree entry manually ("git worktree remove <path>").
However, neither of these approaches ("prune" nor "remove") is
especially convenient, and they may be unsuitable for scripting when a
tool merely wants to re-use a worktree if it exists or create it from
scratch if it doesn't (much as a tool might use "mkdir -p" to re-use
or create a directory).
Therefore, teach 'add' to respect --force as a convenient way to
re-use a path already associated with a worktree entry if the path is
non-existent. For a locked worktree, require --force to be specified
twice.

worktree at a given path if that path already exists. For example:
$ git worktree add -q --detach foo
$ git worktree add -q --detach foo
fatal: 'foo' already exists
However, the check can be fooled, and the invariant broken, if the
path is missing. Continuing the example:
$ rm -fr foo
$ git worktree add -q --detach foo
$ git worktree list
... eadebfe [master]
.../foo eadebfe (detached HEAD)
.../foo eadebfe (detached HEAD)
This "corruption" leads to the unfortunate situation in which the
worktree can not be removed:
$ git worktree remove foo
fatal: validation failed, cannot remove working tree: '.../foo'
does not point back to '.git/worktrees/foo'
Nor can the bogus entry be pruned:
$ git worktree prune -v
$ git worktree list
... eadebfe [master]
.../foo eadebfe (detached HEAD)
.../foo eadebfe (detached HEAD)
without first deleting the worktree directory manually:
$ rm -fr foo
$ git worktree prune -v
Removing .../foo: gitdir file points to non-existent location
Removing .../foo1: gitdir file points to non-existent location
$ git worktree list
... eadebfe [master]
or by manually deleting the worktree entry in .git/worktrees.
To address this problem, upgrade "git worktree add" validation to
allow worktree creation only if the given path is not already
associated with an existing worktree (even if the path itself is
non-existent), thus preventing such bogus worktree entries from being
created in the first place.

Certain conditions must be met for a path to be a valid candidate as the
location of a new worktree; for instance, the path must not exist or
must be an empty directory. Although the number of conditions is small,
new conditions will soon be added so factor out the existing checks into
a separate function to avoid further bloating add_worktree().

prune_worktrees() and delete_git_dir() both remove worktree
administrative entries from .git/worktrees, and their implementations
are nearly identical. The only difference is that prune_worktrees() is
also capable of removing a bogus non-worktree-related file from
.git/worktrees.
Simplify by extending delete_git_dir() to handle the little bit of
extra functionality needed by prune_worktrees(), and drop the
effectively duplicate code from the latter.

This is a pure code movement to avoid having to forward-declare the
function when new callers are subsequently added.
