The previous step introduced docinfo.html to be used to tweak the
CSS used by the asciidoctor, that by default renders <code> inside
<pre> as a block element, breaking the SYNOPSIS section of a few
pages that adopted a new convention we use since Git 2.45.
But in this project, HTML files are all generated. We do not force
any human to write HTML by hand, which is an unusual and cruel
punishment. "*.html" is in the .gitignore file, and "make clean"
removes them. Having a tracked .html file makes "make clean" make
the tree dirty by removing the tracked docinfo.html file.
Let's do an obvious, minimum and stupid workaround to generate that
file at runtime instead. The mark-up is being rethought in a major
way for the next development cycle, and the CSS workaround we added
in the previous step may have to adjusted, possibly in a large way,
anyway.

It was reported that t1460-refs-migrate.sh fails when using Cygwin with
errors like the following:
error: could not link file '.git/ref_migration.sr9pEF/reftable' to '.git/reftable': Permission denied
As some debugging surfaced, the root cause of this is that some files of
the newly-initialized ref store are still open when the target format is
the "reftable" format, and Cygwin refuses to rename open files.
Fix this issue by closing the new ref store before renaming its files
into place. This is a slight change in behaviour compared to before,
where we kept the new ref store open and then updated the repository's
ref store to point to it.
While we could re-open the new ref store after we have moved files
around, this is ultimately unnecessary. We know that the only user of
`repo_migrate_ref_storage_format()` is the git-refs(1) command, and it
won't access the ref store after it has been migrated anyway. So
reinitializing the ref store would be a waste of time. Regardless of
that it is still sensible to leave the repository in a consistent state.
But instead of reinitializing the ref store, we can simply unset the
repo's ref store altogether and let `get_main_ref_store()` lazily
initialize the new ref store as required.

Since 76880f0510 (doc: git-clone: apply new documentation formatting
guidelines, 2024-03-29), the synopsis of `git clone`'s manual page is
rendered differently than before; Its parent commit did the same for
`git init`.
The result looks quite nice. When rendered with AsciiDoc, that is. When
rendered using AsciiDoctor and displayed in a graphical web browser such
as Firefox, Chrome, Edge, etc, the result is quite unpleasant to my eye,
reading something like this:
SYNOPSIS
git clone
[
--template=
<template-directory>]
[
-l
] [
-s
] [
--no-hardlinks
] [
-q
] [
[... continuing like this ...]
The reason is that AsciiDoctor's default style sheet contains this (see
https://github.com/asciidoctor/asciidoctor/blob/854923b15533/src/stylesheets/asciidoctor.css#L519-L521
for context):
pre > code {
display: block;
}
It is this `display: block` that forces the parts that are enclosed in
`<code>` tags (such as the `git clone` or the `--template=` part) to be
rendered on their own line.
Side note: This seems not to affect console web browsers like `lynx` or
`w3m`, most likely because most style sheet directions cannot be
respected in text terminals and therefore they seem to punt on style
sheets altogether.
To fix this, let's apply the method recommended by AsciiDoctor in
https://docs.asciidoctor.org/asciidoctor/latest/html-backend/default-stylesheet/#customize-docinfo
to partially override AsciiDoctor's default style sheet so that the
`<code>` sections of the synopsis are no longer each rendered on their
own, individual lines.
This fixes https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/issues/5063.
Even on the Git home page, where AsciiDoctor's default stylesheet is
_not_ used, this change resulted in some unpleasant rendering where not
only the font is changed for the `<code>` sections of the synopsis, but
padding and a different background color make the visual impression
quite uneven. This has been addressed in the meantime, via
https://github.com/git/git-scm.com/commit/a492d0565512.

After the user has edited a hunk the number of lines in the pre- and
post- image lines is recounted the hunk header can be updated before
passing the hunk to "git apply". The recounting code correctly handles
empty context lines where the leading ' ' is omitted by treating '\n'
and '\r' as context lines.
Update this code to use normalize_marker() so that the handling of empty
context lines is consistent with the rest of the hunk parsing
code. There is a small change in behavior as normalize_marker() only
treats "\r\n" as an empty context line rather than any line starting
with '\r'. This should not matter in practice as Macs have used Unix
line endings since MacOs 10 was released in 2001 and if it transpires
that someone is still using an earlier version of MacOs where lines end
with '\r' then we will need to change the handling of '\r' in
normalize_marker() anyway.

When "add -p" parses diffs, it looks for context lines starting with a
single space. But when diff.suppressBlankEmpty is in effect, an empty
context line will omit the space, giving us a true empty line. This
confuses the parser, which is unable to split based on such a line.
It's tempting to say that we should just make sure that we generate a
diff without that option. However, although we do not parse hunks that
the user has manually edited with parse_diff() we do allow the user
to split such hunks. As POSIX calls the decision of whether to print the
space here "implementation-defined" we need to handle edited hunks where
empty context lines omit the space.
So let's handle both cases: a context line either starts with a space or
consists of a totally empty line by normalizing the first character to a
space when we parse them. Normalizing the first character rather than
changing the code to check for a space or newline will hopefully future
proof against introducing similar bugs if the code is changed.

Asciidoc.py does not have the concept of generalized roles, whereas
asciidoctor interprets [foo]`blah` as blah with role foo in the
synopsis, making in effect foo disappear in the output. Note that
square brackets not directly followed by an inline markup do not
define a role, which is why we do not have the issue on other parts of
the documentation.
In order to get a consistant result across asciidoctor and
asciidoc.py, the hack is to use the {empty} entity
to split the bracket part from the inline format part.

This reverts b7d6f23a17 (midx-write.c: use `--stdin-packs` when
repacking, 2024-04-01) and then marks the test created in the previous
change as passing.
The fundamental issue with the reverted change is that the focus on
pack-files separates the object selection from how the multi-pack-index
selects a single pack-file for an object ID with multiple copies among
the tracked pack-files.
The change was made with the intention of improving delta compression in
the resulting pack-file, but that can be resolved with the existing
object list mechanism. There are other potential pitfalls of doing an
object walk at this time if the repository is a blobless partial clone,
and that will require additional testing on top of the one that changes
here.

Git 2.45.0 included the change b7d6f23a17 (midx-write.c: use
`--stdin-packs` when repacking, 2024-04-01) which caused the 'git
multi-pack-index repack' command to use 'git pack-objects --stdin-packs'
instead of listing the objects to repack. While this change was
motivated by efficient cross-process communication and the ability to
improve delta compression, it breaks a fundamental function of the
'incremental-repack' task that is enabled by default in Scalar clones or
Git repositories that run 'git maintenance start'.
The 'incremental-repack' task performs a two-step process of the
'expire' and 'repack' subcommands of the 'git multi-pack-index' builtin.
The 'expire' command removes any pack-files listed in the
multi-pack-index but without any referenced objects. The 'repack' task
then finds a batch of pack-files to repack and sends their objects to
'git pack-objects'. Both the pack-files chosen for the batch and the
objects chosen to repack are based on the ones that the multi-pack-index
references. Objects that appear in a pack-file but have a duplicate copy
in a newer pack-file are not considered in this case. Since the
multi-pack-index references only the newest copy of an object, this
allows the next 'incremental-repack' task to remove the pack-files in
the next 'expire' task. This delay is intentional due to how Windows
handles may block deletion of files with open read handles.
However, the mentioned commit changed this behavior to divorce the set
of objects referenced by the multi-pack-index and instead use a set of
"included" and "excluded" pack-files in the 'git pack-objects' builtin.
When a pack-file is selected as "included", only the objects it contains
but are not in any "excluded" pack-files are considered for repacking.
This has led to client repositories failing to remove old pack-files as
they still have some referenced objects. This grows over time until the
point that Git is trying to repack the same pack-files over and over.
For now, create a test case that demonstrates the expected behavior, but
also fails in its final line. The setup here it attempting to recreate a
typical situation for a repository that uses a blobless partial clone.
There would be a large initial pack-file from the clone that is never
selected in the 'repack' batch. There are other pack-files that have a
combination of new objects from incremental fetches and possibly blobs
that are not connected to those incremental fetches; these blobs could
be filled in from commands like 'git checkout' or 'git blame'. The
pack-files also have some overlap on purpose so test-1 has some
duplicates in test-2 and test-2 has some duplicates in test-3.
At the end of the test, the test-2 pack-file still exists though it
should have been expired. This test will pass when reverting the
offending commit.

Commit 1c96642326 ("sparse: allow '{ 0 }' to be used without warnings",
2020-05-22) added -Wno-universal-initializer to the SP_EXTRA_FLAGS in
order to suppress potential sparse warnings from using '{0}' as an
aggregate initializer. At that time, the default was for sparse to
issue warnings (i.e. the default was -Wuniversal-initializer) if such
an initializer was used to initialize an aggregate whose first member
was a pointer type. However, this default was changed just a few days
later to -Wno-universal-initializer (first released in sparse v0.6.2)
and has been so in all subsequent release versions of sparse. Thus,
including -Wno-universal-initializer in the SP_EXTRA_FLAGS variable is
redundant.
Remove the unnecessary warning flag from SP_EXTRA_FLAGS, essentially
reverting commit 1c96642326.
