The add_extra_ref() interface is used to add an extra-ref that is _not_
our ref for the purpose of helping auto-following of tags and reducing
object transfer from remote repository, and they are typically formatted
as a tagname followed by ^{} to make sure no valid refs match that
pattern. In other words, these entries are deliberately formatted not to
pass check-refname-format test.
A recent series however added a test unconditionally to the add_ref()
function that is called from add_extra_ref(). The check may be sensible
for other two callsites of the add_ref() interface, but definitely is
a wrong thing to do in add_extra_ref(). Disable it.

In tests, call test_cmp rather than raw diff where possible (i.e. if
the output does not go to a pipe), to allow the use of, say, 'cmp'
when the default 'diff -u' is not compatible with a vendor diff.
When that is not possible, use $DIFF, as set in GIT-BUILD-OPTIONS.

The first test in this series tests "git clone -l -s --reference B A C",
where repo B is a superset of repo A (A has one commit, B has the same
commit plus another). In this case, all objects to be cloned are already
present in B.
However, we should also test the case where the "--reference" repo is a
_subset_ of the source repo (e.g. "git clone -l -s --reference A B C"),
i.e. some objects are not available in the "--reference" repo, and will
have to be found in the source repo.

In this case, the reference repository has some useful loose objects,
but not all useful objects, and we make sure that we can find the
objects we fetch from the repository we're cloning in the new
repository, instead of potentially being distracted by the reference
repository.
Doing the wrong thing in a builtin-clone implementation would lead to
this looking for an object in the wrong place, not finding it (because
it's only in the right place), and crashing.

This fixes the remainder of the issues where the test script itself is at
fault for failing when the git checkout path contains whitespace or other
shell metacharacters.
The majority of git svn tests used the idiom
test_expect_success "title" "test script using $svnrepo"
These were changed to have the test script in single-quotes:
test_expect_success "title" 'test script using "$svnrepo"'
which unfortunately makes the patch appear larger than it really is.
One consequence of this change is that in the verbose test output the
value of $svnrepo (and in some cases other variables, too) is no
longer expanded, i.e. previously we saw
* expecting success:
test script using /path/to/git/t/trash/svnrepo
but now it is:
* expecting success:
test script using "$svnrepo"

When doing "git fetch <remote>" on a remote that does not have the
branch referenced in branch.<current-branch>.merge, git fetch failed.
It failed because it tried to add the "merge" ref to the refs to be
fetched.
Fix that. And add a test case.
Incidentally, this unconvered a bug in our own test suite, where
"git pull <some-path>" was expected to merge the ref given in the
defaults, even if not pulling from the default remote.

This changes the behaviour of cloning from a repository on the
local machine, by defaulting to "-l" (use hardlinks to share
files under .git/objects) and making "-l" a no-op. A new
option, --no-hardlinks, is also added to cause file-level copy
of files under .git/objects while still avoiding the normal
"pack to pipe, then receive and index pack" network transfer
overhead. The old behaviour of local cloning without -l nor -s
is availble by specifying the source repository with the newly
introduced file:///path/to/repo.git/ syntax (i.e. "same as
network" cloning).
* With --no-hardlinks (i.e. have all .git/objects/ copied via
cpio) would not catch the source repository corruption, and
also risks corrupted recipient repository if an
alpha-particle hits memory cell while indexing and resolving
deltas. As long as the recipient is created uncorrupted, you
have a good back-up.
* same-as-network is expensive, but it would catch the breakage
of the source repository. It still risks corrupted recipient
repository due to hardware failure. As long as the recipient
is created uncorrupted, you have a good back-up.
* The new default on the same filesystem, as long as the source
repository is healthy, it is very likely that the recipient
would be, too. Also it is very cheap. You do not get any
back-up benefit, though.
None of the method is resilient against the source repository
corruption, so let's discount that from the comparison. Then
the difference with and without --no-hardlinks matters primarily
if you value the back-up benefit or not. If you want to use the
cloned repository as a back-up, then it is cheaper to do a clone
with --no-hardlinks and two git-fsck (source before clone,
recipient after clone) than same-as-network clone, especially as
you are likely to do a git-fsck on the recipient if you are so
paranoid anyway.
Which leads me to believe that being able to use file:/// is
probably a good idea, if only for testability, but probably of
little practical value. We default to hardlinked clone for
everyday use, and paranoids can use --no-hardlinks as a way to
make a back-up.

When using --reference to borrow objects from a neighbouring
repository while cloning, we copy the entire set of refs under
temporary "refs/reference-tmp/refs" space and set up the object
alternates. However, a textual symref copied this way would not
point at the right place, and causes later steps to emit error
messages (which is harmless but still alarming). This is most
visible when using a clone created with the separate-remote
layout as a reference, because such a repository would have
refs/remotes/origin/HEAD with 'ref: refs/remotes/origin/master'
as its contents.
Although we do not create symbolic-link based refs anymore, they
have the same problem because they are always supposed to be
relative to refs/ hierarchy (we dereference by hand, so it only
is good for HEAD and nothing else).
In either case, the solution is simply to remove them after
copying under refs/reference-tmp; if a symref points at a true
ref, that true ref itself is enough to ensure that objects
reachable from it do not needlessly get fetched.

This reverts commit 9b088c4e394df84232cfd37aea78349a495b09c1.
Protecting 'mature' objects does not make it any safer. We should
admit that git-prune is inherently unsafe when run in parallel with
other operations without involving unwarranted locking overhead,
and with the latest git, even rebase and reset would not immediately
create crufts anyway.

This option gives grace period to objects that are unreachable
from the refs from getting pruned.
The default value is 24 hours and may be changed using
gc.prunegrace.
