17e8039878 reftable/system: move "dir.h" to its only user
We still include "dir.h" in "reftable/system.h" even though it is not
used by anything but by a single unit test. Move it over into that unit
test so that we don't accidentally use any functionality provided by it
in the reftable codebase.

591c6a600e reftable/stack: adapt stack_filename() to handle allocation failures
The `stack_filename()` function cannot pass any errors to the caller as it
has a `void` return type. Adapt it and its callers such that we can
handle errors and start handling allocation failures.

There are two interesting edge cases in `reftable_stack_destroy()` and
`reftable_addition_close()`. Both of these are trying to tear down their
respective structures, and while doing so they try to unlink some of the
tables they have been keeping alive. Any earlier attempts to do that may
fail on Windows because it keeps us from deleting such tables while they
are still open, and thus we re-try on close. It's okay and even expected
that this can fail when the tables are still open by another process, so
we handle the allocation failures gracefully and just skip over any file
whose name we couldn't figure out.

81eddda540 reftable/basics: provide new reftable_buf interface
Implement a new `reftable_buf` interface that will replace Git's own
`strbuf` interface. This is done due to three reasons:

  - The `strbuf` interfaces do not handle memory allocation failures and
    instead causes us to die. This is okay in the context of Git, but is
    not in the context of the reftable library, which is supposed to be
    usable by third-party applications.

  - The `strbuf` interface is quite deeply tied into Git, which makes it
    hard to use the reftable library as a standalone library. Any
    dependent would have to carefully extract the relevant parts of it
    to make things work, which is not all that sensible.

  - The `strbuf` interface does not use the pluggable allocators that
    can be set up via `reftable_set_alloc()`.

So we have good reasons to use our own type, and the implementation is
rather trivial. Implement our own type. Conversion of the reftable
library will be handled in subsequent commits.

7fa7e14ebe reftable: stop using strbuf_addf()
We're about to introduce our own `reftable_buf` type to replace
`strbuf`. One function we'll have to convert is `strbuf_addf()`, which
is used in a handful of places. This function uses `snprintf()`
internally, which makes porting it a bit more involved:

  - It is not available on all platforms.

  - Some platforms like Windows have broken implementations.

So by using `snprintf()` we'd also push the burden on downstream users
of the reftable library to make available a properly working version of
it.

Most callsites of `strbuf_addf()` are trivial to convert to not using
it. We do end up using `snprintf()` in our unit tests, but that isn't
much of a problem for downstream users of the reftable library.

While at it, remove a useless call to `strbuf_reset()` in
`t_reftable_stack_auto_compaction_with_locked_tables()`. We don't write
to the buffer before this and initialize it with `STRBUF_INIT`, so there
is no need to reset anything.

We can only check out commits or branches, not refs in general.  And the

Let’s be more direct and just talk about branches instead of refs.

Also replace “be held” with “in use”.  Further, “in use” is not
restricted to a branch being checked out (e.g. the branch could be busy
on a rebase), hence generalize to “or otherwise in use” in the option
description.

6dab49b9fb bundle-uri: plug leak in unbundle_from_file()
The function `unbundle_from_file()` has two memory leaks:

  - We do not release the `struct bundle_header header` when hitting
    errors because we return early without any cleanup.

  - We do not release the `struct strbuf bundle_ref` at all.

Plug these leaks by creating a common exit path where both of these
variables are released.

While at it, refactor the code such that the variable assignments do not
happen inside the conditional statement itself according to our coding
style.

c95547a394 builtin/gc: fix crash when running git maintenance start
It was reported on the mailing list that running `git maintenance start`
immediately segfaults starting with b6c3f8e12c (builtin/maintenance: fix
leak in `get_schedule_cmd()`, 2024-09-26). And indeed, this segfault is
trivial to reproduce up to a point where one is scratching their head
why we didn't catch this regression in our test suite.

The root cause of this error is `get_schedule_cmd()`, which does not
populate the `out` parameter in all cases anymore starting with the
mentioned commit. Callers do assume it to always be populated though and
will e.g. call `strvec_split()` on the returned value, which will of
course segfault when the variable is uninitialized.

So why didn't we catch this trivial regression? The reason is that our
tests always set up the "GIT_TEST_MAINT_SCHEDULER" environment variable
via "t/test-lib.sh", which allows us to override the scheduler command
with a custom one so that we don't accidentally modify the developer's
system. But the faulty code where we don't set the `out` parameter will
only get hit in case that environment variable is _not_ set, which is
never the case when executing our tests.

Fix the regression by again unconditionally allocating the value in the
`out` parameter, if provided. Add a test that unsets the environment
variable to catch future regressions in this area.

8ead1bba3e doc: clarify <src> in refspec syntax
We explicitly avoid saying "ref <src>" when introducing the source
side of a refspec, because it can be a fully-spelled hexadecimal
object name, and it also can be a pattern that is not quite a "ref".

But we are loose when we introduce <dst> and say "ref <dst>", even
though it can also be a pattern.  Let's omit "ref" also from the
destination side.

Clarify that <src> can be a ref, a (limited glob) pattern, or an
object name.

Even though the very original design of refspec expected that '*'
was used only at the end (e.g., "refs/heads/*" was expected, but not
"refs/heads/*-wip"), the code and its use evolved to handle a single
'*' anywhere in the pattern.  Update the text to remove the mention
of "the same prefix".  Anything that matches the pattern are named
by such a (limited glob) pattern in <src>.

Also put a bit more stress on the fact that we accept only one '*'
in the pattern by saying "one and only one `*`".

77af53f56f t7300-clean.sh: use test_path_* helper functions for error logging
This test script uses "test - [def]", but when a test fails because
the file passed to it does not exist,
it fails silently without an error message.
Use test_path_* helper functions, which are designed to give better
error messages when their expectations are not met.

I have added a mechanical validation that applies the same transformation
done in this patch, when the test script is passed to a sed script as shown
below.

sed -e 's/^\(	*\)test -f /\1test_path_is_file /' \
    -e 's/^\(	*\)test -d /\1test_path_is_dir /' \
    -e 's/^\(	*\)test -e /\1test_path_exists /' \
    -e 's/^\(	*\)! test -[edf] /\1test_path_is_missing /' \
    -e 's/^\(	*\)test ! -[edf] /\1test_path_is_missing /' \
       "$1" >foo.sh

Reviewers can use the sed script to tranform the original test script and
compare the result in foo.sh with the results of applying the patch.
You will see an instance of "!(test -e 3)" which was manually replaced with
""test_path_is_missing 3", and everything else should match.

Careful and deliberate observation was done to check instances where
"test ! - [df] foo" was used in the test script to make sure that the test
instances were expecting foo to EITHER be a file or a directory, and NOT a
possibility of being both as this would make replacing "test ! -f foo" with
"test_path_is_missing foo" unreasonable.

In the tests control flow, foo has been created as EITHER a
reguar file OR a directory and should NOT exist
after "git clean" or "git clean -d", as the case maybe, has been called.
This made it reasonable to replace
"test ! -[df] foo" with "test_path_is_missing foo".

436892123d rebase-merges: try and use branch names as labels
When interactively rebasing merge commits, the commit message is parsed to
extract a probably meaningful label name. For instance if the merge commit
is “Merge branch 'feature0'”, then the rebase script will have thes lines:
```
label feature0

merge -C $sha feature0 # “Merge branch 'feature0'
```

This heuristic fails in the case of octopus merges or when the merge commit
message is actually unrelated to the parent commits.

An example that combines both is:
```
*---.   967bfa4 (HEAD -> integration) Integration
|\ \ \
| | | * 2135be1 (feature2, feat2) Feature 2
| |_|/
|/| |
| | * c88b01a Feature 1
| |/
|/|
| * 75f3139 (feat0) Feature 0
|/
* 25c86d0 (main) Initial commit
```
yields the labels Integration, Integration-2 and Integration-3.

Fix this by using a branch name for each merge commit's parent that is the
tip of at least one branch, and falling back to a label derived from the
merge commit message otherwise.
In the example above, the labels become feat0, Integration and feature2.

68c9fcb027 rebase-update-refs: extract load_branch_decorations
Extract load_branch_decorations from todo_list_add_update_ref_commands so
it can be re-used in make_script_with_merges.

Since it can now be called multiple times, use non-static lists and place
it next to load_ref_decorations to re-use the decoration_loaded guard.

e4d03b7938 load_branch_decorations: fix memory leak with non-static filters
load_branch_decorations calls normalize_glob_ref on each string of filter's
string_lists. This effectively replaces the potentially non-owning char* of
those items with an owning char*.

Set the strdup_string flag on those string_lists.

This was not caught until now because:
- when passing string_lists already with the strdup_string already set, the
  behaviour was correct
- when passing static string_lists, the new char* remain reachable until
  program exit

c4b8fb6ef2 doc: merge-tree: improve example script
• Provide a commit message in the example command.

  The command will hang since it is waiting for a commit message on
  stdin.  Which is usable but not straightforward enough since this is
  example code.
• Use `||` directly since that is more straightforward than checking the
  last exit status.

  Also use `echo` and `exit` since `die` is not defined.
• Expose variable declarations.

f36b8cbaef git-config.1: remove value from positional args in unset usage
The synopsis for `git config unset` mentions two positional arguments:
`<name>` and `<value>`. While the first argument is correct, the second
is not. Users are expected to provide the value via `--value=<value>`.

Remove the positional argument. The `--value=<value>` option is already
documented correctly, so this is all we need to do to fix the
documentation.
