The testcase only required that the merge complete without conflict,
without specifying what the correct resolution was. Since normalization
changed this from a modify/delete to a not-modified/delete, the correct
resolution is to have the file be removed at the end. Add a check for
this resolution.

The tests for the merge machinery are spread over several places.
Collect them into t64xx for simplicity. Some notes:
t60[234]*.sh:
Merge tests started in t602*, overgrew bisect and remote tracking
tests in t6030, t6040, and t6041, and nearly overtook replace tests
in t6050. This made picking out relevant tests that I wanted to run
in a tighter loop slightly more annoying for years.
t303*.sh:
These started out as tests for the 'merge-recursive' toplevel command,
but did not restrict to that and had lots of overlap with the
underlying merge machinery.
t7405, t7613:
submodule-specific merge logic started out in submodule.c but was
moved to merge-recursive.c in commit 18cfc08866 ("submodule.c: move
submodule merging to merge-recursive.c", 2018-05-15). Since these
tests are about the logic found in the merge machinery, moving these
tests to be with the merge tests makes sense.
t7607, t7609:
Having tests spread all over the place makes it more likely that
additional tests related to a certain piece of logic grow in all those
other places. Much like t303*.sh, these two tests were about the
underlying merge machinery rather than outer levels.
Tests that were NOT moved:
t76[01]*.sh:
Other than the four tests mentioned above, the remaining tests in
t76[01]*.sh are related to non-recursive merge strategies, parameter
parsing, and other stuff associated with the highlevel builtin/merge.c
rather than the recursive merge machinery.
t3[45]*.sh:
The rebase testcases in t34*.sh also test the merge logic pretty
heavily; sometimes changes I make only trigger failures in the rebase
tests. The rebase tests are already nicely coupled together, though,
and I didn't want to mess that up. Similar comments apply for the
cherry-pick tests in t35*.sh.

The 'merge' command is not the only one that does merges; other commands
like checkout -m or rebase do as well. Unfortunately, the only area of
the code that checked for the "merge.renormalize" config setting was in
builtin/merge.c, meaning it could only affect merges performed by the
"merge" command. Move the handling of this config setting to
merge_recursive_config() so that other commands can benefit from it as
well. Fixes a few tests in t6038.

t6038.11, 'cherry-pick patch from after text=auto' was a test of
undefined behavior. To make matters worse, while there are a couple
possible correct answers, this test was coded to only check for an
obviously incorrect answer. And the final cherry on top is that the
test is marked test_expect_failure, meaning it can't provide much value,
other than possibly confusing future folks who come along and try to
work on attributes and look at existing tests. Because of all these
problems, just remove the test.
But for any future code spelunkers, here's my understanding of the two
possible correct answers:
This test was set up so that on a branch with no .gitattributes file,
you cherry-picked a patch from a branch that had a .gitattributes file
(containing '* text=auto'). Further, the two branches had a file which
differed only in line endings. In this situation, correct behavior is
not well defined: should the .gitattributes file affect the merge or
not?
If the .gitattributes file on the other branch should not affect the
merge, then we would have a content conflict with all three stages
different (the merge base didn't match either side).
If the .gitattributes file from the other branch should affect the
merge, then we would expect the line endings to be normalized to LF for
the version to be recorded in the repository. This would mean that when
doing a three-way content merge on the file that differed in line
endings, that the three-way content merge would see that the versions on
both sides matched and so the cherry-pick has no conflicts and can
succeed. The line endings in the file as recorded in the repository
will change from CRLF to LF. The version checked out in the working
copy will depend on the platform (since there's no eol attribute defined
for the file).
Also, as a final side note, this test expected an error message that was
built assuming cherry-pick was the old scripted version, because
cherry-pick no longer uses the error message that was encoded in this
test. So it was wrong for yet another reason.
Given that the handling of .gitattributes is not well defined and this
test was obviously broken and could do nothing but confuse future
readers, just remove it.

t6038 had a pair of tests that were expected to fail, but weren't
failing for the expected reason. Both were meant to do a merge that
could be done cleanly after renormalization, but were supposed to fail
for lack of renormalization. Unfortunately, both tests had staged
changes, and checkout -m would abort due to the presence of those staged
changes before even attempting a merge.
Fix this first issue by utilizing git-restore instead of git-checkout,
so that the index is left alone and just the working directory gets the
changes we want.
However, there is a second issue with these tests. Technically, they
just wanted to verify that after renormalization, no conflicts would be
present. This could have been checked for by grepping for a lack of
conflict markers, but the test instead tried to compare the working
directory files to an expected result. Unfortunately, the setting of
"text=auto" without setting core.eol to any value meant that the content
of the file (in particular, the line endings) would be
platform-dependent and the tests could only pass on some platforms.
Replace the existing comparison with a call to 'git diff --no-index
--ignore-cr-at-eol' to verify that the contents, other than possible
carriage returns in the file, match the expected results and in
particular that the file has no conflicts from the checkout -m
operation.

We use
printf '\0'
to generate a NUL byte which we then `dd` into the packfile to ensure
that we modify the first byte of the first object, thereby
(probabilistically) invalidating the checksum. Except the single quotes
we're using are interpreted to match with the ones we enclose the whole
test in. So we actually execute
printf \0
and end up injecting the ASCII code for "0", 0x30, instead.
The comment right above this `printf` invocation says that "at least one
of [the type bits] is not zero, so setting the first byte to 0 is
sufficient". Substituting "0x30" for "0" in that comment won't do: we'd
need to reason about which bits go where and just what the packfile
looks like that we're modifying in this test.
Let's avoid all of that by actually executing
printf "\0"
to generate a NUL byte, as intended.

In Git 2.28, we stopped special casing 'master' when producing the
default merge message by just removing the code to squelch "into
'master'" at the end of the message.
Introduce multi-valued merge.suppressDest configuration variable
that gives a set of globs to match against the name of the branch
into which the merge is being made, to let users specify for which
branch fmt-merge-msg's output should be shortened. When it is not
set, 'master' is used as the sole value of the variable by default.
The above move mostly reverts the pre-2.28 default in repositories
that have no relevant configuration.
Add a few tests to protect the behaviour with the new configuration
variable from future regression.

This reverts commit 489947cee5095b168cbac111ff7bd1eadbbd90dd, which
stopped treating merges into the 'master' branch as special when
preparing the default merge message. As the goal was not to have
any single branch designated as special, it solved it by leaving the
"into <branchname>" at the end of the title of the default merge
message for any and all branches. An obvious and easy alternative
to treat everybody equally could have been to remove it for every
branch, but that involves loss of information.
We'll introduce a new mechanism to let end-users specify merges into
which branches would omit the "into <branchname>" from the title of
the default merge message, and make the mechanism, when unconfigured,
treat the traditional 'master' special again, so all the changes to
the tests we made earlier will become unnecessary, as these tests
will be run without configuring the said new mechanism.

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 remaining files, as the resulting diff is
reasonably sized.
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;
'
We'll deal with any indentation/style fallouts separately.

When we invoke a remote transport helper and pass an option with an
argument, we quote the argument as a C-style string if necessary. This
is the case for the cas option, which implements the --force-with-lease
command-line flag, when we're passing a non-ASCII refname.
However, the remote curl helper isn't designed to parse such an
argument, meaning that if we try to use --force-with-lease with an HTTP
push and a non-ASCII refname, we get an error like this:
error: cannot parse expected object name '0000000000000000000000000000000000000000"'
Note the double quote, which get_oid has reminded us is not valid in an
hex object ID.
Even if we had been able to parse it, we would send the wrong data to
the server: we'd send an escaped ref, which would not behave as the user
wanted and might accidentally result in updating or deleting a ref we
hadn't intended.
Since we need to expect a quoted C-style string here, just check if the
first argument is a double quote, and if so, unquote it. Note that if
the refname contains a double quote, then we will have double-quoted it
already, so there is no ambiguity.
We test for this case only in the smart protocol, since the DAV-based
protocol is not capable of handling this capability. We use UTF-8
because this is nicer in our tests and friendlier to Windows, but the
code should work for all non-ASCII refs.
While we're at it, since the name of the option is now well established
and isn't going to change, let's inline it instead of using the #define
constant.

In 95c11ecc73 ("Fix error-prone fill_directory() API; make it only

specifically `treat_path()`, to check against any pathspecs so that we
could simplify the callers.
But in doing so, we added a slightly-too-early return for the "excluded"
case. We end up not checking the pathspecs, meaning we return
`path_excluded` when maybe we should return `path_none`. As a result,
`git status --ignored -- pathspec` might show paths that don't actually
match "pathspec".
Move the "excluded" check down to after we've checked any pathspecs.

In 6b7093064a ("t3200: test for specific errors", 2020-06-15), we
learned to grep stderr to ensure that the failing `git branch`
invocations fail for the right reason. In two of these tests, we grep
for "File exists", expecting the string to show up there since config.c
calls `error_errno()`, which ends up including `strerror(errno)` in the
error message.
But as we saw in 4605a73073 ("t1091: don't grep for `strerror()`
string", 2020-03-08), there exists at least one implementation where
`strerror()` yields a slightly different string than the one we're
grepping for. In particular, these tests fail on the NonStop platform.
Similar to 4605a73073, grep for the beginning of the string instead to
avoid relying on `strerror()` behavior.

When upload-pack receives a request containing "have" hashes, it (among
other things) checks if the served repository has the corresponding
objects. However, it does not do so with the
OBJECT_INFO_SKIP_FETCH_OBJECT flag, so if serving a partial clone, a
lazy fetch will be triggered first.
This was discovered at $DAYJOB when a user fetched from a partial clone
(into another partial clone - although this would also happen if the
repo to be fetched into is not a partial clone).
Therefore, whenever "have" hashes are checked for existence, pass the
OBJECT_INFO_SKIP_FETCH_OBJECT flag. Also add the OBJECT_INFO_QUICK flag
to improve performance, as it is typical that such objects do not exist
in the serving repo, and the consequences of a false negative are minor
(usually, a slightly larger pack sent).

It's useful and efficient to be able to get the size of the
contents directly without having to pipe through `wc -c`.
Also the result of the following:
`git for-each-ref --format='%(contents)' refs/heads/my-branch | wc -c`
is off by one as `git for-each-ref` appends a newline character
after the contents, which can be seen by comparing its output
with the output from `git cat-file`.
As with %(contents), %(contents:size) is silently ignored, if a
ref points to something other than a commit or a tag:
```
$ git update-ref refs/mytrees/first HEAD^{tree}
$ git for-each-ref --format='%(contents)' refs/mytrees/first

We made the mistake in the past of respecting extensions.* even when the
repository format version was set to 0. This is bad because forgetting
to bump the repository version means that older versions of Git (which
do not know about our extensions) won't complain. I.e., it's not a
problem in itself, but it means your repository is in a state which does
not give you the protection you think you're getting from older
versions.
For compatibility reasons, we are stuck with that decision for existing
extensions. However, we'd prefer not to extend the damage further. We
can do that by catching any newly-added extensions and complaining about
the repository format.
Note that this is a pretty heavy hammer: we'll refuse to work with the
repository at all. A lesser option would be to ignore (possibly with a
warning) any new extensions. But because of the way the extensions are
handled, that puts the burden on each new extension that is added to
remember to "undo" itself (because they are handled before we know
for sure whether we are in a v1 repo or not, since we don't insist on a
particular ordering of config entries).
So one option would be to rewrite that handling to record any new
extensions (and their values) during the config parse, and then only
after proceed to handle new ones only if we're in a v1 repository. But
I'm not sure if it's worth the trouble:
- ignoring extensions is likely to end up with broken results anyway
(e.g., ignoring a proposed objectformat extension means parsing any
object data is likely to encounter errors)
- this is a sign that whatever tool wrote the extension field is
broken. We may be better off notifying immediately and forcefully so
that such tools don't even appear to work accidentally.
The only downside is that fixing the situation is a little tricky,
because programs like "git config" won't want to work with the
repository. But:
git config --file=.git/config core.repositoryformatversion 1
should still suffice.

Now that we officially permit repository extensions in repository
format v0, permit upgrading a repository with extensions from v0 to v1
as well.
For example, this means a repository where the user has set
"extensions.preciousObjects" can use "git fetch --filter=blob:none
origin" to upgrade the repository to use v1 and the partial clone
extension.
To avoid mistakes, continue to forbid repository format upgrades in v0
repositories with an unrecognized extension. This way, a v0 user
using a misspelled extension field gets a chance to correct the
mistake before updating to the less forgiving v1 format.
While we're here, make the error message for failure to upgrade the
repository format a bit shorter, and present it as an error, not a
warning.

repositories"
This reverts commit 14c7fa269e42df4133edd9ae7763b678ed6594cd.
The core.repositoryFormatVersion field was introduced in ab9cb76f661
(Repository format version check., 2005-11-25), providing a welcome
bit of forward compatibility, thanks to some welcome analysis by
Martin Atukunda. The semantics are simple: a repository with
core.repositoryFormatVersion set to 0 should be comprehensible by all
Git implementations in active use; and Git implementations should
error out early instead of trying to act on Git repositories with
higher core.repositoryFormatVersion values representing new formats
that they do not understand.
A new repository format did not need to be defined until 00a09d57eb8
(introduce "extensions" form of core.repositoryformatversion,
2015-06-23). This provided a finer-grained extension mechanism for
Git repositories. In a repository with core.repositoryFormatVersion
set to 1, Git implementations can act on "extensions.*" settings that
modify how a repository is interpreted. In repository format version
1, unrecognized extensions settings cause Git to error out.
What happens if a user sets an extension setting but forgets to
increase the repository format version to 1? The extension settings
were still recognized in that case; worse, unrecognized extensions
settings do *not* cause Git to error out. So combining repository
format version 0 with extensions settings produces in some sense the
worst of both worlds.
To improve that situation, since 14c7fa269e4
(check_repository_format_gently(): refuse extensions for old
repositories, 2020-06-05) Git instead ignores extensions in v0 mode.
This way, v0 repositories get the historical (pre-2015) behavior and
maintain compatibility with Git implementations that do not know about
the v1 format. Unfortunately, users had been using this sort of
configuration and this behavior change came to many as a surprise:
- users of "git config --worktree" that had followed its advice
to enable extensions.worktreeConfig (without also increasing the
repository format version) would find their worktree configuration
no longer taking effect
- tools such as copybara[*] that had set extensions.partialClone in
existing repositories (without also increasing the repository format
version) would find that setting no longer taking effect
The behavior introduced in 14c7fa269e4 might be a good behavior if we
were traveling back in time to 2015, but we're far too late. For some
reason I thought that it was what had been originally implemented and
that it had regressed. Apologies for not doing my research when
14c7fa269e4 was under development.
Let's return to the behavior we've had since 2015: always act on
extensions.* settings, regardless of repository format version. While
we're here, include some tests to describe the effect on the "upgrade
repository version" code path.

An earlier "fix" to this script gave up updating it not to rely on
the current time because we cannot control what timestamp subversion
gives its commits. We however could solve the issue in a different
way and still use deterministic timestamps on Git commits.
One fix would be to sort the list of trees before removing duplicates,
but that loses information:
- we do care that the fetched history is in the same order
- there's a tree which appears twice in the history, and we'd want to
make sure that it's there both times
So instead, let's de-duplicate using a hash (preserving the order), and
drop only lines with identical trees and subjects (preserving the tree
which appears twice, since it has different subjects each time).

We always set the name and email for committer and author idents to make
the test suite more deterministic, but not timestamps. Many scripts use
test_tick to get consistent and sensibly incrementing timestamps as they
create commits. But other scripts don't particularly care about the
timestamp, and are happy to use whatever the current system time is.
This non-determinism can be annoying:
- when debugging a test, comparing results between two runs can be
difficult, because the commit ids change
- this can sometimes cause tests to be racy. E.g., traversal order
depends on timestamp order. Even in a well-ordered set of commands,
because our timestamp granularity is one second, two commits might
sometimes have the same timestamp and sometimes differ.
Let's set a default timestamp for all scripts to use. Any that use
test_tick already will be unaffected (because their first test_tick call
will overwrite our default), but it will make things a bit more
deterministic for those that don't.
We should be able to choose any time we want here. I picked this one
because:
- it differs from the initial test_tick default, which may make it
easier to distinguish when debugging tests. I picked "April 1st
13:14:15" in the hope that it might stand out.
- it's slightly before the test_tick default. Some tests create some
commits before the first call to test_tick, so using an older
timestamps for those makes sense chronologically. Note that this
isn't how things currently work (where system times are usually more
recent than test_tick), but that also allows us to flush out a few
hidden timestamp dependencies (like the one recently fixed in
t5539).
- we could likewise pick any timezone we want. Choosing +0000 would
have required fixing up fewer tests, but we're more likely to turn
up interesting cases by not matching $TZ exactly. And since
test_tick already checks "-0700", let's try something in the "+"
zone range for variety.
It's possible that the non-deterministic times could help flush out bugs
(e.g., if something broke when the clock flipped over to 2021, our test
suite would let us know). But historically that hasn't been the case;
all time-dependent outcomes we've seen turned out to be accidentally
flaky tests (which we fixed by using test_tick). If we do want to cover
handling the current time, we should dedicate one script to doing so,
and have it unset GIT_COMMITTER_DATE explicitly.

The early part of t9100 creates an unusual "doubled" history in the
"git-svn" ref. When we get to t9100.17, it looks like this:
$ git log --oneline --graph git-svn
[...]
* efd0303 detect node change from file to directory #2
|\
* | 3e727c0 detect node change from file to directory #2
|/
* 3b00468 try a deep --rmdir with a commit
|\
* | b4832d8 try a deep --rmdir with a commit
|/
* f0d7bd5 import for git svn
Each commit we make with "git commit" is paired with one from "git svn
set-tree", with the latter as a merge of the first and its grandparent.
Later, t9100.17 wants to check that "git svn fetch" gets the same trees.
And it does, but just one copy of each. So it uses rev-list to get the
tree of each commit and pipes it to "uniq" to drop the duplicates. Our
input isn't sorted, but it will find adjacent duplicates. This works
reliably because the order of commits from rev-list always shows the
duplicates next to each other. For any one of those merges, we could
choose to show its duplicate or the grandparent first. But barring
clocks running backwards, the duplicate will always have a time equal to
or greater than the grandparent. Even if equal, we break ties by showing
the first-parent first, so the duplicates remain adjacent.
But this would break if the timestamps stopped moving in chronological
order. Normally we would rely on test_tick for this, but we have _two_
sources of time here:
- "git commit" creates one commit based on GIT_COMMITTER_DATE (which
respects test_tick)
- the "svn set-tree" one is based on subversion, which does not have
an easy way to specify a timestamp
So using test_tick actually breaks the test, because now the duplicates
are far in the past, and we'll show the grandparent before the
duplicate. And likewise, a proposed change to set GIT_COMMITTER_DATE in
all scripts will break it.
We _could_ fix this by sorting before removing duplicates, but
presumably it's a useful part of the test to make sure the trees appear
in the same order in both spots. Likewise, we could use something like:
perl -ne 'print unless $seen{$_}++'
to remove duplicates without impacting the order. But that doesn't work
either, because there are actually multiple (non-duplicate) commits with
the same trees (we change a file mode and then change it back). So we'd
actually have to de-duplicate the combination of subject and tree. Which
then further throws off t9100.18, which compares the tree hashes
exactly; we'd have to strip the result back down.
Since this test _isn't_ buggy, the simplest thing is to just work around
the proposed change by documenting our expectation that git-created
commits are correctly interleaved using the current time.
