When we clone a submodule, we call "git clone $url $path".
But there's nothing to say that those components can't begin
with a dash themselves, confusing git-clone into thinking
they're options. Let's pass "--" to make it clear what we
expect.
There's no test here, because it's actually quite hard to
make these names work, even with "git clone" parsing them
correctly. And we're going to restrict these cases even
further in future commits. So we'll leave off testing until
then; this is just the minimal fix to prevent us from doing
something stupid with a badly formed entry.

Commit b0db704652 (pathspec: allow querying for attributes -
2017-03-13) adds new pathspec magic 'attr' but only with
match_pathspec(). "git add" has some pathspec related code that still
does not know about 'attr' and will bail out:
$ git add ':(attr:foo)'
fatal: BUG:dir.c:1584: unsupported magic 40
A better solution would be making this code support 'attr'. But I
don't know how much work is needed (I'm not familiar with this new
magic). For now, let's simply reject this magic with a friendlier
message:
$ git add ':(attr:foo)'
fatal: :(attr:foo): pathspec magic not supported by this command: 'attr'
Update t6135 so that the expected error message is from the
"graceful" rejection codepath, not "oops, we were supposed to reject
the request to trigger this magic" codepath.

If passed both --no-deref and --stdin, update-ref would error out with a
general usage message that did not at all suggest these options were
incompatible. The manpage for update-ref did suggest through its
synopsis line that --no-deref and --stdin were incompatible, but it sadly
also incorrectly suggested that -d and --no-deref were incompatible. So
the help around the --no-deref option is buggy in a few ways.
The --stdin option did provide a different mechanism for avoiding
dereferencing symbolic-refs: adding a line reading
option no-deref
before every other directive in the input. (Technically, if the user
wants to do the extra work of first determining which refs they want to
update or delete are symbolic, then they only need to put the extra
"option no-deref" lines before the updates of those refs. But in some
cases, that's more work than just adding the "option no-deref" before
every other directive.)
It's easier to allow the user to just pass --no-deref along with --stdin
in order to tell update-ref that the user doesn't want any symbolic ref
to be dereferenced. It also makes the update-ref documentation simpler.
Implement that, and update the documentation to match.

This reverts commit 7e25437d35a70791b345872af202eabfb3e1a8bc, reversing
changes made to 00624d608cc69bd62801c93e74d1ea7a7ddd6598.
v2.19.0-rc0~165^2~1 (submodule: ensure core.worktree is set after
update, 2018-06-18) assumes an "absorbed" submodule layout, where the
submodule's Git directory is in the superproject's .git/modules/
directory and .git in the submodule worktree is a .git file pointing
there. In particular, it uses $GIT_DIR/modules/$name to find the
submodule to find out whether it already has core.worktree set, and it
uses connect_work_tree_and_git_dir if not, resulting in
fatal: could not open sub/.git for writing
The context behind that patch: v2.19.0-rc0~165^2~2 (submodule: unset
core.worktree if no working tree is present, 2018-06-12) unsets
core.worktree when running commands like "git checkout
--recurse-submodules" to switch to a branch without the submodule. If
a user then uses "git checkout --no-recurse-submodules" to switch back
to a branch with the submodule and runs "git submodule update", this
patch is needed to ensure that commands using the submodule directly
are aware of the path to the worktree.
It is late in the release cycle, so revert the whole 3-patch series.
We can try again later for 2.20.

Recent addition of "directory rename" heuristics to the
merge-recursive backend makes the command susceptible to false
positives and false negatives. In the context of "git am -3",
which does not know about surrounding unmodified paths and thus
cannot inform the merge machinery about the full trees involved,
this risk is particularly severe. As such, the heuristic is
disabled for "git am -3" to keep the machinery "more stupid but
predictable".

Change "fetch" to treat "+" in refspecs (aka --force) to mean we
should clobber a local tag of the same name.
This changes the long-standing behavior of "fetch" added in
853a3697dc ("[PATCH] Multi-head fetch.", 2005-08-20). Before this
change, all tag fetches effectively had --force enabled. See the
git-fetch-script code in fast_forward_local() with the comment:
> Tags need not be pointing at commits so there is no way to
> guarantee "fast-forward" anyway.
That commit and the rest of the history of "fetch" shows that the
"+" (--force) part of refpecs was only conceived for branch updates,
while tags have accepted any changes from upstream unconditionally and
clobbered the local tag object. Changing this behavior has been
discussed as early as 2011[1].
The current behavior doesn't make sense to me, it easily results in
local tags accidentally being clobbered. We could namespace our tags
per-remote and not locally populate refs/tags/*, but as with my
97716d217c ("fetch: add a --prune-tags option and fetch.pruneTags
config", 2018-02-09) it's easier to work around the current
implementation than to fix the root cause.
So this change implements suggestion #1 from Jeff's 2011 E-Mail[1],
"fetch" now only clobbers the tag if either "+" is provided as part of
the refspec, or if "--force" is provided on the command-line.
This also makes it nicely symmetrical with how "tag" itself works when
creating tags. I.e. we refuse to clobber any existing tags unless
"--force" is supplied. Now we can refuse all such clobbering, whether
it would happen by clobbering a local tag with "tag", or by fetching
it from the remote with "fetch".
Ref updates outside refs/{tags,heads/* are still still not symmetrical
with how "git push" works, as discussed in the recently changed
pull-fetch-param.txt documentation. This change brings the two
divergent behaviors more into line with one another. I don't think
there's any reason "fetch" couldn't fully converge with the behavior
used by "push", but that's a topic for another change.
One of the tests added in 31b808a032 ("clone --single: limit the fetch
refspec to fetched branch", 2012-09-20) is being changed to use
--force where a clone would clobber a tag. This changes nothing about
the existing behavior of the test.

The -h output has been referring to the --force command as forcing the
overwriting of local branches, but since "fetch" more generally
fetches all sorts of references in all refs/ namespaces, let's talk
about forcing the update of a a "reference" instead.
This wording was initially introduced in 8320199873 ("Rewrite

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.

A given path should only ever be associated with a single registered
worktree. This invariant is enforced by refusing to create a new
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.

Let's say you have the following three trees, where Base is from one commit
behind either master or branch:
Base : bar_v1, foo/{file1, file2, file3}
branch: bar_v2, foo/{file1, file2}, goo/file3
master: bar_v3, foo/{file1, file2, file3}
Using git-am (or am-based rebase) to apply the changes from branch onto
master results in the following tree:
Result: bar_merged, goo/{file1, file2, file3}
This is not what users want; they did not rename foo/ -> goo/, they only
renamed one file within that directory. The reason this happens is am
constructs fake trees (via build_fake_ancestor()) of the following form:
Base_bfa : bar_v1, foo/file3
branch_bfa: bar_v2, goo/file3
Combining these two trees with master's tree:
master: bar_v3, foo/{file1, file2, file3},
You can see that merge_recursive_generic() would see branch_bfa as renaming
foo/ -> goo/, and master as just adding both foo/file1 and foo/file2. As
such, it ends up with goo/{file1, file2, file3}
The core problem is that am does not have access to the original trees; it
can only construct trees using the blobs involved in the patch. As such,
it is not safe to perform directory rename detection within am -3.

Add best-effort support for patches sent using format=flowed (RFC 3676).
Remove leading spaces ("unstuff"), remove soft line breaks (indicated
by space + newline), but leave the signature separator (dash dash space
newline) alone.
Warn in git am when encountering a format=flowed patch, because any
trailing spaces would most probably be lost, as the sending MUA is
encouraged to remove them when preparing the email.
Provide a test patch formatted by Mozilla Thunderbird 60 using its
default configuration. It reuses the contents of the file mailinfo.c
before and after this patch.
