ea02ffa385 mailmap: simplify map_user() interface
Simplify map_user(), mostly to avoid copies of string buffers. It
also simplifies caller functions.

map_user() directly receive pointers and length from the commit buffer
as mail and name. If mapping of the user and mail can be done, the
pointer is updated to a new location. Lengths are also updated if
necessary.

The caller of map_user() can then copy the new email and name if
necessary.

c04318e46a dir.c: keep track of where patterns came from
For exclude patterns read in from files, the filename is stored in the
exclude list, and the originating line number is stored in the
individual exclude (counting starting at 1).

For exclude patterns provided on the command line, a string describing
the source of the patterns is stored in the exclude list, and the
sequence number assigned to each exclude pattern is negative, with
counting starting at -1.  So for example the 2nd pattern provided via
--exclude would be numbered -2.  This allows any future consumers of
that data to easily distinguish between exclude patterns from files
vs. from the CLI.

c082df2453 dir.c: use a single struct exclude_list per source of excludes
Previously each exclude_list could potentially contain patterns
from multiple sources.  For example dir->exclude_list[EXC_FILE]
would typically contain patterns from .git/info/exclude and
core.excludesfile, and dir->exclude_list[EXC_DIRS] could contain
patterns from multiple per-directory .gitignore files during
directory traversal (i.e. when dir->exclude_stack was more than
one item deep).

We split these composite exclude_lists up into three groups of
exclude_lists (EXC_CMDL / EXC_DIRS / EXC_FILE as before), so that each
exclude_list now contains patterns from a single source.  This will
allow us to cleanly track the origin of each pattern simply by adding
a src field to struct exclude_list, rather than to struct exclude,
which would make memory management of the source string tricky in the
EXC_DIRS case where its contents are dynamically generated.

Similarly, by moving the filebuf member from struct exclude_stack to
struct exclude_list, it allows us to track and subsequently free
memory buffers allocated during the parsing of all exclude files,
rather than only tracking buffers allocated for files in the EXC_DIRS
group.

9be1980bb9 clone: support atomic operation with --separate-git-dir
Since b57fb80a7d (init, clone: support --separate-git-dir for .git file)
git clone supports the --separate-git-dir option to create the git dir
outside the work tree. But when that option is used, the git dir won't be
deleted in case the clone fails like it would be without this option. This
makes clone lose its atomicity as in case of a failure a partly set up git
dir is left behind. A real world example where this leads to problems is
when "git submodule update" fails to clone a submodule and later calls to
"git submodule update" stumble over the partially set up git dir and try
to revive the submodule from there, which then fails with a not very user
friendly error message.

Fix that by updating the junk_git_dir variable (used to remember if and
what git dir should be removed in case of failure) to the new value given
with the --seperate-git-dir option. Also add a test for this to t5600 (and
while at it fix the former last test to not cd into a directory to test
for its existence but use "test -d" instead).

3e4141d08c merge: Honor prepare-commit-msg return code
65969d4 (merge: honor prepare-commit-msg hook, 2011-02-14) tried to
make "git commit" and "git merge" consistent, because a merge that
required user assistance has to be concluded with "git commit", but
back then only "git commit" triggered prepare-commit-msg hook.

When it added a call to run the prepare-commit-msg hook, however, it
forgot to check the exit code from the hook like "git commit" does,
and ended up replacing one inconsistency with another.

When prepare-commit-msg hook that is run from "git merge" exits with
a non-zero status, abort the commit.

The credit lines "By" and "Via" to credit authors and committers for
their contributions on the side branch are meant as a hint to the
integrator to decide whom to mention in the log message text.  After
the integrator saves the message in the editor, they are meant to go

When a merge is recorded without editing the generated message,
however, its contents do not go through the normal stripspace()
and these lines are left in the merge.

Stop producing them when we know the merge is going to be recorded
without editing, i.e. when --no-edit is given.

35ffe75831 merge-tree: fix d/f conflicts
The previous commit documented two known breakages revolving around
a case where one side flips a tree into a blob (or vice versa),
where the original code simply gets confused and feeds a mixture of
trees and blobs into either the recursive merge-tree (and recursing
into the blob will fail) or three-way merge (and merging tree contents
together with blobs will fail).

Fix it by feeding trees (and only trees) into the recursive
merge-tree machinery and blobs (and only blobs) into the three-way
content level merge machinery separately; when this happens, the
entire merge has to be marked as conflicting at the structure level.

5fe10fe80a format-patch: add --reroll-count=$N option
The --reroll-count=$N option, when given a positive integer:

 - Adds " v$N" to the subject prefix specified.  As the default
   subject prefix string is "PATCH", --reroll-count=2 makes it
   "PATCH v2".

 - Prefixes "v$N-" to the names used for output files.  The cover
   letter, whose name is usually 0000-cover-letter.patch, becomes
   v2-0000-cover-letter.patch when given --reroll-count=2.

This allows users to use the same --output-directory for multiple
iterations of the same series, without letting the output for a
newer round overwrite output files from the earlier rounds.  The
user can incorporate materials from earlier rounds to update the
newly minted iteration, and use "send-email v2-*.patch" to send out
the patches belonging to the second iteration easily.

off-by-one fix, because strbuf_add_wrapped_text() never returns a
value of wraplen; when it returns wraplen, the string does not end
with a newline, so this caller needs to add one anyway.

updated, which doesn't happen.

Since we can't know if a ref was exported or not, let's just assume that
if the commit was marked (flags & SHOWN), the user still wants the ref
updated.

IOW: If it's specified in the command line, it will get updated,
regardless of whether or not the object was marked.

So:

 % git branch test master
 % git fast-export $mark_flags master
 % git fast-export $mark_flags test

Would export 'test' properly.

Additionally, this fixes issues with remote helpers; now they can push
refs whose objects have already been exported, and a few other issues as
well. Update the tests accordingly.

49266e8a11 fast-export: don't handle uninteresting refs
They have been marked as UNINTERESTING for a reason, lets respect
that.  Currently the first ref is handled properly, but not the
rest.  Assuming that all the refs point at the same commit in the
following example:

  % git fast-export master ^uninteresting ^foo ^bar
  reset refs/heads/bar
  from :0

  reset refs/heads/foo
  from :0

  reset refs/heads/uninteresting
  from :0

  % git fast-export ^uninteresting ^foo ^bar master
  reset refs/heads/master
  from :0

  reset refs/heads/bar
  from :0

  reset refs/heads/foo
  from :0

Clearly this is wrong; the negative refs should be ignored.

After this patch:

  % git fast-export ^uninteresting ^foo ^bar master
  # nothing
  % git fast-export master ^uninteresting ^foo ^bar
  # nothing

And even more, it would only happen if the ref is pointing to exactly
the same commit, but not otherwise:

 % git fast-export ^next next
 reset refs/heads/next
 from :0

 % git fast-export ^next next^{commit}
 # nothing
 % git fast-export ^next next~0
 # nothing
 % git fast-export ^next next~1
 # nothing
 % git fast-export ^next next~2
 # nothing

The reason this happens is that before traversing the commits,
fast-export checks if any of the refs point to the same object, and any
duplicated ref gets added to a list in order to issue 'reset' commands
after the traversing. Unfortunately, it's not even checking if the
commit is flagged as UNINTERESTING. The fix of course, is to check it.

However, in order to do it properly we need to get the UNINTERESTING
flag from the command line, not from the commit object, because
"^foo bar" will mark the commit 'bar' uninteresting if foo and bar
points at the same commit.  rev_cmdline_info, which was introduced
exactly to handle this situation, contains all the information we
need for get_tags_and_duplicates(), plus the ref flag. This way the
rest of the positive refs will remain untouched; it's only the
negative ones that change in behavior.

Add 'advice.pushAlreadyExists' option to disable the advice shown when
an update is rejected for a reference that is not allowed to update at
all (verses those that are allowed to fast-forward.)
