3332f35577 builtin/blame: fix leaking prefixed paths
In `cmd_blame()` we compute prefixed paths by calling `add_prefix()`,
which itself calls `prefix_path()`. While `prefix_path()` returns an
allocated string, `add_prefix()` pretends to return a constant string.
Consequently, this path never gets freed.

Fix the return type to be `char *` and free the path to plug the memory
leak.

44ec7c575f merge: fix leaking merge bases
When calling either the recursive or the ORT merge machineries we need
to provide a list of merge bases. The ownership of that parameter is
then implicitly transferred to the callee, which is somewhat fishy.
Furthermore, that list may leak in some cases where the merge machinery
runs into an error, thus causing a memory leak.

Refactor the code such that we stop transferring ownership. Instead, the
merge machinery will now create its own local copies of the passed in
list as required if they need to modify the list. Free the list at the
callsites as required.

77241a6b5e builtin/merge: fix leaking struct cmdnames in get_strategy()
In "builtin/merge.c" we use the helper infrastructure to figure out what
merge strategies there are. We never free contents of the `cmdnames`
structures though and thus leak their memory.

Fix this by exposing the already existing `clean_cmdnames()` function to

Before calling `update_pre_post_images()`, we call `strbuf_detach()` to

63c9bd372e commit: fix leaking parents when calling commit_tree_extended()
When creating commits via `commit_tree_extended()`, the caller passes in
a string list of parents. This call implicitly transfers ownership of
that list to the function, which is quite surprising to begin with. But
to make matters worse, `commit_tree_extended()` doesn't even bother to
free the list of parents in error cases. The result is a memory leak,
and one that the caller cannot fix by themselves because they do not
know whether parts of the string list have already been released.

Refactor the code such that callers can keep ownership of the list of
parents, which is getting indicated by parameter being a constant
pointer now. Free the lists at the calling site and add a common exit
path to those sites as required.

a90a089611 revision: free diff options
There is a todo comment in `release_revisions()` that mentions that we
need to free the diff options, which was added via 54c8a7c379 (revisions
API: add a TODO for diff_free(&revs->diffopt), 2022-04-14). Releasing
the diff options wasn't quite feasible at that time because some call
sites rely on its contents to remain even after the revisions have been
released.

In fact, there really only are a couple of callsites that misbehave
here:

  - `cmd_shortlog()` releases the revisions, but continues to access its
    file pointer.

  - `do_diff_cache()` creates a shallow copy of `struct diff_options`,
    but does not set the `no_free` member. Consequently, we end up
    releasing resources of the caller-provided diff options.

  - `diff_free()` and friends do not play nice when being called
    multiple times as they don't unset data structures that they have
    just released.

Fix all of those cases and enable the call to `diff_free()`, which plugs
a bunch of memory leaks.

3199b22e7d builtin/merge-recursive: fix leaking object ID bases
In `cmd_merge_recursive()` we have a static array of object ID bases
that we pass to `merge_recursive_generic()`. This interface is somewhat
weird though because the latter function accepts a pointer to a pointer
of object IDs, which requires us to allocate the object IDs on the heap.
And as we never free those object IDs, the end result is a leak.

While we can easily solve this leak by just freeing the respective
object IDs, the whole calling convention is somewhat weird. Instead,
refactor `merge_recursive_generic()` to accept a plain pointer to object
IDs so that we can avoid allocating them altogether.

f87c55c264 object-name: free leaking object contexts
While it is documented in `struct object_context::path` that this
variable needs to be released by the caller, this fact is rather easy to

context. And of course, while some callers dutifully release the path,
many others don't.

Introduce a new `object_context_release()` function that releases the
path. Convert callsites that used to free the path to use that new
function and add missing calls to callsites that were leaking memory.

9748537437 revision: fix leaking display notes
We never free the display notes options embedded into `struct revision`.
Implement a new function `release_display_notes()` that we can call in
`release_revisions()` to fix this.

There is another gotcha here though: we play some games with the string
list used to track extra notes refs, where we sometimes set the bit that
indicates that strings should be strdup'd and sometimes unset it. This
dance is done to avoid a copy of an already-allocated string when we
call `enable_ref_display_notes()`. But this dance is rather pointless as
we can instead call `string_list_append_nodup()` to transfer ownership
of the allocated string to the list.

Refactor the code to do so and drop the `strdup_strings` dance.

d7b97b7185 diff: let external diffs report that changes are uninteresting
The options --exit-code and --quiet instruct git diff to indicate
whether it found any significant changes by exiting with code 1 if it
did and 0 if there were none.  Currently this doesn't work if external
diff programs are involved, as we have no way to learn what they found.

Add that ability in the form of the new configuration options
diff.trustExitCode and diff.<driver>.trustExitCode and the environment
variable GIT_EXTERNAL_DIFF_TRUST_EXIT_CODE.  They pair with the config
options diff.external and diff.<driver>.command and the environment
variable GIT_EXTERNAL_DIFF, respectively.

The new options are off by default, keeping the old behavior.  Enabling
them indicates that the external diff returns exit code 1 if it finds
significant changes and 0 if it doesn't, like diff(1).

The name of the new options is taken from the git difftool and mergetool
options of similar purpose.  (There they enable passing on the exit code
of a diff tool and to infer whether a merge done by a merge tool is
successful.)

The new feature sets the diff flag diff_from_contents in
diff_setup_done() if we need the exit code and are allowed to call
external diffs.  This disables the optimization that avoids calling the
program with --quiet.  Add it back by skipping the call if the external
diff is not able to report empty diffs.  We can only do that check after
evaluating the file-specific attributes in run_external_diff().

If we do run the external diff with --quiet, send its output to
/dev/null.

I considered checking the output of the external diff to check whether
its empty.  It was added as 11be65cfa4 (diff: fix --exit-code with
external diff, 2024-05-05) and quickly reverted, as it does not work
with external diffs that do not write to stdout.  There's no reason why
a graphical diff tool would even need to write anything there at all.

I also considered using a non-zero exit code for empty diffs, which
could be done without adding new configuration options.  We'd need to
disable the optimization that allows git diff --quiet to skip calling
external diffs, though -- that might be quite surprising if graphical
diff programs are involved.  And assigning the opposite meaning of the
exit codes compared to diff(1) and git diff --exit-code to the external
diff can cause unnecessary confusion.

f96c385449 format-patch: assume --cover-letter for diff in multi-patch series
When we deal with a multi-patch series in git-format-patch(1), if we see
`--interdiff` or `--range-diff` but no `--cover-letter`, we return with
an error, saying:

    fatal: --range-diff requires --cover-letter or single patch

or:

    fatal: --interdiff requires --cover-letter or single patch

This makes sense because the cover-letter is where we place the diff
from the previous version.

However, considering that `format-patch` generates a multi-patch as
needed, let's adopt a similar "cover as necessary" approach when using
`--interdiff` or `--range-diff`.

Therefore, relax the requirement for an explicit `--cover-letter` in a
multi-patch series when the user says `--iterdiff` or `--range-diff`.

Still, if only to return the error, respect "format.coverLetter=no" and
`--no-cover-letter`.

e3d2364c45 imap-send: free all_msgs strbuf in "out" label
We read stdin into a strbuf, but most code paths never release it,
causing a leak (albeit a minor one, as we leak only when exiting from
the main function of the program).

Commit 56f4f4a29d (imap-send: minimum leakfix, 2024-06-04) did the
minimum to plug the one instance we see in the test suite, when we read
an empty input. But it was sufficient only because aside from this noop
invocation, we don't test imap-send at all!

The right spot to free is in the "out" label, which is hit by all code
paths before leaving the function. We couldn't do that in 56f4f4a29d
because there was no unified exit path. That came separately in
3aca5f7fb0 (imap-send: fix leaking memory in `imap_server_conf`,
2024-06-04), which cleaned up many other leaks (but not this one).

d66fe0726b config.mak.dev: enable -Wwrite-strings warning
Writing to string constants is undefined behaviour and must be avoided
in C. Even so, the compiler does not help us with this by default
because those constants are not in fact marked as `const`. This makes it
rather easy to accidentally assign a constant to a non-const variable or
field and then later on try to either free it or write to it.

Enable `-Wwrite-strings` to catch such mistakes. With this warning
enabled, the type of string constants is changed to `const char[]` and
will thus cause compiler warnings when being assigned to non-const
fields and variables.

71e01a0ebd builtin/merge: always store allocated strings in pull_twohead
The `pull_twohead` configuration may sometimes contain an allocated
string, and sometimes it may contain a string constant. Refactor this to
instead always store an allocated string such that we can release its
resources without risk.

While at it, manage the lifetime of other config strings, as well. Note
that we explicitly don't free `cleanup_arg` here. This is because the
variable may be assigned a string constant via command line options.

fc06676766 builtin/rebase: always store allocated string in options.strategy
The `struct rebase_options::strategy` field is a `char *`, but we do end
up assigning string constants to it in two cases:

  - When being passed a `--strategy=` option via the command line.

  - When being passed a strategy option via `--strategy-option=`, but
    not a strategy.

This will cause warnings once we enable `-Wwrite-strings`.

Ideally, we'd just convert the field to be a `const char *`. But we also
assign to this field via the GIT_TEST_MERGE_ALGORITHM envvar, which we
have to strdup(3P) into it.

Instead, refactor the code to make sure that we only ever assign
allocated strings to this field.

25a47ffac0 builtin/rebase: do not assign default backend to non-constant field
The `struct rebase_options::default_backend` field is a non-constant
string, but is being assigned a constant via `REBASE_OPTIONS_INIT`.
Fix this by using `xstrdup()` to assign the variable and introduce a new
function `rebase_options_release()` that releases memory held by the
structure, including the newly-allocated variable.
