Finally.
The separate-remote layout is so much more organized than
traditional and easier to work with especially when you need to
deal with remote repositories with multiple branches and/or you
need to deal with more than one remote repositories, and using
traditional layout for new repositories simply does not make
much sense.
Internally we still have code for 1:1 mappings to create a bare
clone; that is a good thing and will not go away.

Now we lost the "first refspec is the one that is merged by default"
rule, there is no reason for clone to list the remote primary branch
in the config file explicitly anymore.
We still need it for the traditional layout for other reasons,
though.

This stops enumerating the set of branches found on the remote
side when a clone was made in the configuration file. Instead,
a single entry that maps each remote branch to the local
tracking branch for the remote under the same name is created.
Doing it this way not only shortens the configuration file, but
automatically adjusts to a new branch added on the remote side
after the clone is made.
Unfortunately this cannot be done for the traditional layout,
where we always need to special case the 'master' to 'origin'
mapping within the local branch namespace. But that is Ok; it
will be going away before v1.5.0.
We could also lose the "primary branch" mapping at the
beginning, but that has to wait until we implement the "forbid
'git pull' when we do not have branch.$current.merge for the
current branch" policy we earlier discussed. That should also
be in v1.5.0

Without any specification in the .git/config file, git-pull will execute
"git-pull origin"; which in turn defaults to pull from the first "pull"
definition for the remote, "origin".
This is a difficult set of defaults to track for a new user, and it's
difficult to see what tells git to do this (especially when it is
actually hard-coded behaviour). To ameliorate this slightly, this patch
explicitly specifies the default behaviour during a clone using the
"branch" section of the config.
For example, a clone of a typical repository would create a .git/config
containing:
[remote "origin"]
url = proto://host/repo.git
fetch = refs/heads/master:refs/remotes/origin/master
[branch "master"]
remote = origin
merge = refs/heads/master
The [branch "master"] section is such that there is no change to the
functionality of git-pull, but that functionality is now explicitly
documented.

With making --use-separate-remote default when creating non-bare
clone, there was need for the flag which would turn off this behavior.
It was called --use-immingled-remote.
Immingle means to blend, to combine into one, to intermingle, but it
is a bit obscure word. I think it would be better to use simply
--no-separate-remote as the opposite to --use-separate-remote
option to git clone.

Rather than use a separate config .git/remotes/ for remote shortcuts, this
patch adds the analagous definitions to .git/config using git-repo-config
calls.
For example what was previously .git/remotes/origin
URL: proto://host/path
Pull: refs/heads/master:refs/heads/origin
Is now added to .git/config as
[remote "origin"]
url = proto://host/path
fetch = refs/heads/master:refs/heads/origin

Most notably, the original code first copied refs/remotes/ that
remote side had to local, and overwrote them by mapping refs/heads/
from the remote when a dumb protocol transport was used.
This makes the clone behaviour by dumb protocol in line with the
git native and rsync transports.

We've talked about this for quite some time on the list, and it
is a sane thing to do for a repository with an associcated
working tree.
For somebody who wants to use the traditional layout, there is a
backward compatibility option --use-immingled-remote, but it is
expected to be removed before the next major release.

I noticed that a cron-launched "git-clone --quiet" was generating

The offending output was due to git-clone invoking git-read-tree with
its undocumented -v option.
This change turns off "-v" for --quiet.

the repository argument for git-clone should be relative to $PWD
instead of the given target directory. The old behavior gave us
surprising success and you need a few minute to know why it worked.
GIT_DIR is already exported so no need to cd into $D. And this makes
$PWD for git-fetch-pack, which is the actual command to take the given
repository dir, the same as git-clone.

When cloning from a remote repository that has master, main, and
origin branches _and_ with the HEAD pointing at main branch, we
did quite confused things during clone. So this cleans things
up. The behaviour is a bit different between separate remotes/
layout and the mixed branches layout.
The newer layout with $GIT_DIR/refs/remotes/$origin/, things are
simpler and more transparent:
- remote branches are copied to refs/remotes/$origin/.
- HEAD points at the branch with the same name as the remote
HEAD points at, and starts at where the remote HEAD points at.
- $GIT_DIR/remotes/$origin file is set up to fetch all remote
branches, and merge the branch HEAD pointed at at the time of
the cloning.
Everything-in-refs/heads layout was the more confused one, but
cleaned up like this:
- remote branches are copied to refs/heads, but the branch
"$origin" is not copied, instead a copy of the branch the
remote HEAD points at is created there.
- HEAD points at the branch with the same name as the remote
HEAD points at, and starts at where the remote HEAD points at.
- $GIT_DIR/remotes/$origin file is set up to fetch all remote
branches except "$origin", and merge the branch HEAD pointed
at at the time of the cloning.
With this, the remote has master, main and origin, and its HEAD
points at main, you could:
git clone $URL --origin upstream
to use refs/heads/upstream as the tracking branch for remote
"main", and your primary working branch will also be "main".
"master" and "origin" are used to track the corresponding remote
branches and with this setup they do not have any special meaning.

This builds on top of the previous one.
* --use-separate-remote uses .git/refs/remotes/$origin/
directory to keep track of the upstream branches.
* The $origin above defaults to "origin" as usual, but the
existing "-o $origin" option can be used to override it.
I am not yet convinced if we should make "$origin" the synonym to
"refs/remotes/$origin/$name" where $name is the primary branch
name of $origin upstream, nor if so how we should decide which
upstream branch is the primary one, but that is more or less
orthogonal to what the clone does here.

This does two things.
* A new flag --reference can be used to name a local repository
that is to be used as an alternate. This is in response to
an inquiry by James Cloos in the message on the list
<m3r74ykue7.fsf@lugabout.cloos.reno.nv.us>.
* A new flag --use-separate-remote stops contaminating local
branch namespace by upstream branch names. The upstream
branch heads are copied in .git/refs/remotes/ instead of
.git/refs/heads/ and .git/remotes/origin file is set up to
reflect this as well. It requires to have fetch/pull update
to understand .git/refs/remotes by Eric Wong to further
update the repository cloned this way.
For the former change, git-fetch-pack is taught a new flag --all
to fetch from all the remote heads. Nobody uses the git-clone-pack
with this change, so we could deprecate the command, but removal
of the command will be left to a separate round.
