9e05fbe61b t5710: arrange to delete the client before cloning
If `test_when_finished "rm -rf client"` is run after we clone, it
will not run if the clone failed, so the "client" directory might
not be removed at the end of the test.

`git clone` does try to remove the directory when it fails, but
let's be safe and try to protect against possibly weird clone
failures by moving `test_when_finished "rm -rf client"` before
the clone. It just makes more sense this way around.

5040f9f164 doc: add technical design doc for large object promisors
Let's add a design doc about how we could improve handling liarge blobs
using "Large Object Promisors" (LOPs). It's a set of features with the
goal of using special dedicated promisor remotes to store large blobs,
and having them accessed directly by main remotes and clients.

36463e32df promisor-remote: check advertised name or URL
A previous commit introduced a "promisor.acceptFromServer" configuration
variable with only "None" or "All" as valid values.

Let's introduce "KnownName" and "KnownUrl" as valid values for this
configuration option to give more choice to a client about which
promisor remotes it might accept among those that the server advertised.

In case of "KnownName", the client will accept promisor remotes which
are already configured on the client and have the same name as those
advertised by the client. This could be useful in a corporate setup
where servers and clients are trusted to not switch names and URLs, but
where some kind of control is still useful.

In case of "KnownUrl", the client will accept promisor remotes which
have both the same name and the same URL configured on the client as the
name and URL advertised by the server. This is the most secure option,
so it should be used if possible.

d460267613 Add 'promisor-remote' capability to protocol v2
When a server S knows that some objects from a repository are available
from a promisor remote X, S might want to suggest to a client C cloning
or fetching the repo from S that C may use X directly instead of S for
these objects.

Note that this could happen both in the case S itself doesn't have the
objects and borrows them from X, and in the case S has the objects but
knows that X is better connected to the world (e.g., it is in a
$LARGEINTERNETCOMPANY datacenter with petabit/s backbone connections)
than S. Implementation of the latter case, which would require S to
omit in its response the objects available on X, is left for future
improvement though.

Then C might or might not, want to get the objects from X. If S and C
can agree on C using X directly, S can then omit objects that can be
obtained from X when answering C's request.

To allow S and C to agree and let each other know about C using X or
not, let's introduce a new "promisor-remote" capability in the
protocol v2, as well as a few new configuration variables:

  - "promisor.advertise" on the server side, and:
  - "promisor.acceptFromServer" on the client side.

By default, or if "promisor.advertise" is set to 'false', a server S will
not advertise the "promisor-remote" capability.

If S doesn't advertise the "promisor-remote" capability, then a client C
replying to S shouldn't advertise the "promisor-remote" capability
either.

If "promisor.advertise" is set to 'true', S will advertise its promisor
remotes with a string like:

  promisor-remote=<pr-info>[;<pr-info>]...

where each <pr-info> element contains information about a single
promisor remote in the form:

  name=<pr-name>[,url=<pr-url>]

where <pr-name> is the urlencoded name of a promisor remote and
<pr-url> is the urlencoded URL of the promisor remote named <pr-name>.

For now, the URL is passed in addition to the name. In the future, it
might be possible to pass other information like a filter-spec that the
client may use when cloning from S, or a token that the client may use
when retrieving objects from X.

It is C's responsibility to arrange how it can reach X though, so pieces
of information that are usually outside Git's concern, like proxy
configuration, must not be distributed over this protocol.

It might also be possible in the future for "promisor.advertise" to have
other values. For example a value like "onlyName" could prevent S from
advertising URLs, which could help in case C should use a different URL
for X than the URL S is using. (The URL S is using might be an internal
one on the server side for example.)

By default or if "promisor.acceptFromServer" is set to "None", C will
not accept to use the promisor remotes that might have been advertised
by S. In this case, C will not advertise any "promisor-remote"
capability in its reply to S.

If "promisor.acceptFromServer" is set to "All" and S advertised some
promisor remotes, then on the contrary, C will accept to use all the
promisor remotes that S advertised and C will reply with a string like:

  promisor-remote=<pr-name>[;<pr-name>]...

where the <pr-name> elements are the urlencoded names of all the
promisor remotes S advertised.

In a following commit, other values for "promisor.acceptFromServer" will
be implemented, so that C will be able to decide the promisor remotes it
accepts depending on the name and URL it received from S. So even if
that name and URL information is not used much right now, it will be
needed soon.

337855629f builtin/clone: teach git-clone(1) the --revision= option
The git-clone(1) command has the option `--branch` that allows the user
to select the branch they want HEAD to point to. In a non-bare
repository this also checks out that branch.

Option `--branch` also accepts a tag. When a tag name is provided, the
commit this tag points to is checked out and HEAD is detached. Thus
`--branch` can be used to clone a repository and check out a ref kept
under `refs/heads` or `refs/tags`. But some other refs might be in use
as well. For example Git forges might use refs like `refs/pull/<id>` and
`refs/merge-requests/<id>` to track pull/merge requests. These refs
cannot be selected upon git-clone(1).

Add option `--revision` to git-clone(1). This option accepts a fully
qualified reference, or a hexadecimal commit ID. This enables the user
to clone and check out any revision they want. `--revision` can be used
in conjunction with `--depth` to do a minimal clone that only contains
the blob and tree for a single revision. This can be useful for
automated tests running in CI systems.

Using option `--branch` and `--single-branch` together is a similar
scenario, but serves a different purpose. Using these two options, a
singlet remote tracking branch is created and the fetch refspec is set
up so git-fetch(1) will receive updates on that branch from the remote.
This allows the user work on that single branch.

Option `--revision` on contrary detaches HEAD, creates no tracking
branches, and writes no fetch refspec.

7a52a8c7d8 clone: introduce struct clone_opts in builtin/clone.c
There is a lot of state stored in global variables in builtin/clone.c.
In the long run we'd like to remove many of those.

Introduce `struct clone_opts` in this file. This struct will be used to
contain all details needed to perform the clone. The struct object can
be thrown around to all the functions that need these details.

The first field we're adding is `wants_head`. In some scenarios
(specifically when both `--single-branch` and `--branch` are given) we
are not interested in `HEAD` on the remote. The field `wants_head` in
`struct clone_opts` will hold this information. We could have put
`option_branch` and `option_single_branch` into that struct instead, but
in a following commit we'll be using `wants_head` as well.

2ca67c6f14 clone: add tags refspec earlier to fetch refspec
In clone.c we call refspec_ref_prefixes() to copy the fetch refspecs
from the `remote->fetch` refspec into `ref_prefixes` of
`transport_ls_refs_options`. Afterwards we add the tags prefix
`refs/tags/` prefix as well. At a later point, in wanted_peer_refs() we
process refs using both `remote->fetch` and `TAG_REFSPEC`.

Simplify the code by appending `TAG_REFSPEC` to `remote->fetch` before
calling refspec_ref_prefixes().

To be able to do this, we set `option_tags` to 0 when --mirror is given.
This is because --mirror mirrors (hence the name) all the refs,
including tags and they do not need to be treated separately.

879780f9a1 clone: refactor wanted_peer_refs()
The function wanted_peer_refs() is used to map the refs returned by the
server to refs we will save in our clone.

Over time this function grown to be very complex. Refactor it.

Previously, there was a separate code path for when
`option_single_branch` was set. It resulted in duplicated code and
deeper nested conditions. After this refactor the code path for when
`option_single_branch` is truthy modifies `refs` and then falls through
to the common code path. This approach relies on the `refspec` being set
correctly and thus only mapping refs that are relevant.

support --tags as well, although there was some conversation about
it[1].

To simplify the code and to prepare for future commits, invert the flag
internally. Functionally there is no change, because the flag is
default-enabled passing `--tags` has no effect, so there's no need to
add tests for this.

worktree as not bare. As such, those commands incorrectly think
that the repository's default branch (typically "main" or
"master") is checked out in the bare repository even though it's
not. This makes it impossible, for instance, to checkout or delete
the default branch from a secondary worktree, among other
shortcomings.

This problem occurs because, when extensions.worktreeConfig is
true, commands run in secondary worktrees only consult
$commondir/config and $commondir/worktrees/<id>/config.worktree,
thus they never see the main worktree's core.bare=true setting in
$commondir/config.worktree.

Fix this problem by consulting the main worktree's config.worktree
file when checking whether it is bare. (This extra work is
performed only when running from a secondary worktree.)

414c82300a builtin/repack: fix --keep-unreachable when there are no packs
The "--keep-unreachable" flag is supposed to append any unreachable
objects to the newly written pack. This flag is explicitly documented as
appending both packed and loose unreachable objects to the new packfile.
And while this works alright when repacking with preexisting packfiles,
it stops working when the repository does not have any packfiles at all.

The root cause are the conditions used to decide whether or not we want
to append "--pack-loose-unreachable" to git-pack-objects(1). There are
a couple of conditions here:

  - `has_existing_non_kept_packs()` checks whether there are existing
    packfiles. This condition makes sense to guard "--keep-pack=",
    "--unpack-unreachable" and "--keep-unreachable", because all of
    these flags only make sense in combination with existing packfiles.
    But it does not make sense to disable `--pack-loose-unreachable`
    when there aren't any preexisting packfiles, as loose objects can be
    packed into the new packfile regardless of that.

  - `delete_redundant` checks whether we want to delete any objects or
    packs that are about to become redundant. The documentation of
    `--keep-unreachable` explicitly says that `git repack -ad` needs to
    be executed for the flag to have an effect.

    It is not immediately obvious why such redundant objects need to be
    deleted in order for "--pack-unreachable-objects" to be effective.
    But as things are working as documented this is nothing we'll change
    for now.

  - `pack_everything & PACK_CRUFT` checks that we're not creating a
    cruft pack. This condition makes sense in the context of
    "--pack-loose-unreachable", as unreachable objects would end up in
    the cruft pack anyway.

So while the second and third condition are sensible, it does not make
any sense to condition `--pack-loose-unreachable` on the existence of
packfiles.

Fix the bug by splitting out the "--pack-loose-unreachable" and only
making it depend on the second and third condition. Like this, loose
unreachable objects will be packed regardless of any preexisting
packfiles.

d549b6c9ff refspec: relocate apply_refspecs and related funtions
Move the functions `apply_refspecs()` and `apply_negative_refspecs()`
from `remote.c` to `refspec.c`. These functions focus on applying
refspecs, so centralizing them in `refspec.c` improves code organization
by keeping refspec-related logic in one place.

be0905fed1 remote: rename query_refspecs functions
Rename functions related to handling refspecs in preparation for their
move from `remote.c` to `refspec.c`. Update their names to better
reflect their intent:

    - `query_refspecs()` -> `refspec_find_match()` for clarity, as it
      finds a single matching refspec.

    - `query_refspecs_multiple()` -> `refspec_find_all_matches()` to
      better reflect that it collects all matching refspecs instead of
      returning just the first match.

    - `query_matches_negative_refspec()` ->
      `refspec_find_negative_match()` for consistency with the
      updated naming convention, even though this static function
      didn't strictly require renaming.
