9bb10d27e7 Makefile: generate "git.rc" via GIT-VERSION-GEN
The "git.rc" is used on Windows to embed information like the project
name and version into the resulting executables. As such we need to
inject the version information, which we do by using preprocessor
defines. The logic to do so is non-trivial and needs to be kept in sync
with the different build systems.

Refactor the logic so that we generate "git.rc" via `GIT-VERSION-GEN`.

0c8d339514 Makefile: propagate Git version via generated header
We set up a couple of preprocessor macros when compiling Git that
propagate the version that Git was built from to `git version` et al.
The way this is set up makes it harder than necessary to reuse the
infrastructure across the different build systems.

Refactor this such that we generate a "version-def.h" header via
`GIT-VERSION-GEN` instead.

4838deab65 Makefile: refactor GIT-VERSION-GEN to be reusable
Our "GIT-VERSION-GEN" script always writes the "GIT-VERSION-FILE" into
the current directory, where the expectation is that it should exist in
the source directory. But other build systems that support out-of-tree
builds may not want to do that to keep the source directory pristine,
even though CMake currently doesn't care.

Refactor the script such that it won't write the "GIT-VERSION-FILE"
directly anymore, but instead knows to replace @PLACEHOLDERS@ in an
arbitrary input file. This allows us to simplify the logic in CMake to
determine the project version, but can also be reused later on in order
to generate other files that need to contain version information like
our "git.rc" file.

While at it, change the format of the version file by removing the
spaces around the equals sign. Like this we can continue to include the
file in our Makefiles, but can also start to source it in shell scripts
in subsequent steps.

dbe46c0feb Makefile: consistently use @PLACEHOLDER@ to substitute
We have a bunch of placeholders in our scripts that we replace at build
time, for example by using sed(1). These placeholders come in three
different formats: @PLACEHOLDER@, @@PLACEHOLDER@@ and ++PLACEHOLDER++.

Next to being inconsistent it also creates a bit of a problem with
CMake, which only supports the first syntax in its `configure_file()`
function. To work around that we instead manually replace placeholders
via string operations, which is a hassle and removes safeguards that
CMake has to verify that we didn't forget to replace any placeholders.
Besides that, other build systems like Meson also support the CMake
syntax.

Unify our codebase to consistently use the syntax supported by such
build systems.

4638e8806e Makefile: use common template for GIT-BUILD-OPTIONS
The "GIT-BUILD-OPTIONS" file is generated by our build systems to
propagate built-in features and paths to our tests. The generation is
done ad-hoc, where both our Makefile and the CMake build instructions
simply echo a bunch of strings into the file. This makes it very hard to
figure out what variables are expected to exist and what format they
have, and the written variables can easily get out of sync between build
systems.

Introduce a new "GIT-BUILD-OPTIONS.in" template to address this issue.
This has multiple advantages:

  - It demonstrates which built options exist in the first place.

  - It can serve as a spot to document the build options.

  - Some build systems complain when not all variables could be
    substituted, alerting us of mismatches. Others don't, but if we
    forgot to substitute such variables we now have a bogus string that
    will likely cause our tests to fail, if they have any meaning in the
    first place.

Backfill values that we didn't yet set in our CMake build instructions.
While at it, remove the `SUPPORTS_SIMPLE_IPC` variable that we only set
up in CMake as it isn't used anywhere.

This change requires us to adapt the setup of TEST_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY in
"test-lib.sh" such that it does not get overwritten after sourcing when
it has been set up via the environment. This is the only instance I
could find where we rely on ordering on variables.

8839dccc8d cmake: use SH_EXE to execute clar scripts
In 30bf9f0aaa (cmake: set up proper dependencies for generated clar
headers, 2024-10-21), we have deduplicated the logic to generate our
clar headers by reusing the same scripts that our Makefile does. Despite
the deduplication, this refactoring also made us rebuild the headers in
case the source files change, which didn't happen previously.

The commit also introduced an issue though: we execute the scripts
directly, so when the host does not have "/bin/sh" available they will
fail. This is for example the case on Windows when importing the CMake
project into Microsoft Visual Studio.

Address the issue by invoking the scripts with `SH_EXE`, which contains
the discovered path of the shell interpreter.

While at it, wrap the overly long lines in the CMake build instructions.

702d8c1f3b Require Perl 5.26.0
Our platform support policy states that we require "versions of
dependencies which are generally accepted as stable and supportable,
e.g., in line with the version used by other long-term-support
distributions".  Of Debian, Ubuntu, RHEL, and SLES, the four most common
distributions that provide LTS versions, the version with mainstream
long-term security support with the oldest Perl is 5.26.0 in SLES 15.6.

This is a major upgrade, since Perl 5.8.1, according to the Perl
documentation, was released in September of 2003.  It brings a lot of
new features that we can choose to use, such as s///r to return the
modified string, the postderef functionality, and subroutine signatures,
although the latter was still considered experimental until 5.36.

This change was made with the following one-liner, which intentionally
excludes modifying the vendored modules we include to avoid conflicts:

    git grep -l 'use 5.008001' | grep -v 'LoadCPAN/' | xargs perl -pi -e 's/use 5.008001/require v5.26/'

Use require instead of use to avoid changing the behavior as the latter
enables features and the former does not.

a4f8a59ddc cmake: fix compilation of clar-based unit tests
The compilation of clar-based unit tests is broken because we do not
add the binary directory into which we generate the "clar-decls.h" and
"clar.suite" files as include directories. Instead, we accidentally set
up the source directory as include directory.

Fix this by including the binary directory instead of the source
directory. Furthermore, set up the include directories as PUBLIC instead
of PRIVATE such that they propagate from "unit-tests.lib" to the
"unit-tests" executable, which needs to include the same directory.

df383b5842 t/test-lib: wire up NO_ICONV prerequisite
The iconv library is used by Git to reencode files, commit messages and
other things. As such it is a rather integral part, but given that many
platforms nowadays use UTF-8 everywhere you can live without support for
reencoding in many situations. It is thus optional to build Git with
iconv, and some of our platforms wired up in "config.mak.uname" disable
it. But while we support building without it, running our test suite
with "NO_ICONV=Yes" causes many test failures.

Wire up a new test prerequisite ICONV that gets populated via our
GIT-BUILD-OPTIONS. Annotate failing tests accordingly.

Note that this commit does not do a deep dive into every single test to
assess whether the failure is expected or not. Most of the tests do
smell like the expected kind of failure though.

8afda42fce cmake: generalize the handling of the UNIT_TEST_OBJS list
In a15d4465a9 (cmake: also build unit tests, 2023-09-25), I
accommodated the CMake definition. Seeing that a `UNIT_TEST_OBJS` list
was introduced that was built by transforming the `UNIT_TEST_PROGRAMS`
list and then adding a single, hard-coded file
("t/unit-tests/test-lib.c"), I decided to hard-code that in the CMake
definition, too.

The reason why I hard-coded it instead of imitating the
`parse_makefile_for_sources()` paradigm that was used elsewhere when
using the `Makefile` as source of truth for given lists of files: This
function expects _only_ hard-coded values, and that transformed
`UNIT_TEST_PROGRAMS` list complicated everything.

In 872721538c (cmake: fix build of `t-oidtree`, 2024-07-12), I
accommodated the CMake definition again, after seeing that the
`UNIT_TEST_OBJS` was still defined via that transformed list but now
appending _two_ hard-coded files ("t/unit-tests/lib-oid.c" joined the
fray).

In 428672a3b1 (Makefile: stop listing test library objects twice,
2024-09-16), the `Makefile` was changed so that `UNIT_TEST_OBJS` is
finally only constructed using hard-coded file names just like the other
`*_OBJS` variables. I missed that and therefore did not adjust the CMake
definition. Besides, the code was working, so there was no real need to
adjust it.

With a4f50bb1e9 (t/unit-tests: introduce reftable library, 2024-09-16),
however, the `UNIT_TEST_OBJS` list became a trio, and the CMake
definition has to be adjusted again. Now that we can use the
`parse_makefile_for_sources()` function without many complications,
let's do that.

083b82544d git-jump: ignore deleted files in diff mode
If you do something like this:

  rm file_a
  echo change >file_b
  git jump diff

then we'll generate two quickfix entries for the diff, one for each
file. But the one for the deleted file is rather pointless. There's no
content to show since the file is gone, and in fact we open the editor
with the path /dev/null!

In vim, at least, the result is a confusing annoyance: the editor opens
with an empty buffer, and you have to skip past it to the useful
quickfix entry (after scratching your head and figuring out that no,
nothing is broken).

Let's skip such entries entirely. There's nothing useful to show, since
the point is that the file has been deleted.

It is possible that you could be doing a diff whose post-image is not
the working tree, and then you'd perhaps be jumping to the deleted
content (or at least something that was in the same spot). But I don't
think it's worth worrying about that case. For one thing, using git-jump
for such diffs is a bad idea in general, as it's going to sometimes move
you to the wrong spot. And two, a deletion is always going to have one
hunk starting at line 1, which is not that interesting to jump to in the
first place.

9f5978e777 git-jump: always specify column 1 for diff entries
When we generate a quickfix entry for a diff hunk, we provide just the
filename and line number along with the content, like:

  file:1: contents of the line

This can be a problem if the line itself looks like a quickfix header.
For example (and this is adapted from a real-world case that bit me):

  echo 'static_lease 10:11:12:13:14:15:16 10.0.0.1' >file
  git add file
  echo change >file

produces:

  file:1: static_lease 10:11:12:13:14:15:16 10.0.0.1

which is ambiguous. It could be line 1 of "file", or line 11 of the file
"file:1: static_lease 10", and so on. In the case of vim's default
config, it seems to prefer the latter (you can configure "errorformat"
with a variety of patterns, but out of the box it matches some common
ones).

One easy way to fix this is to provide a column number, like:

  file:1:1: static_lease 10:11:12:13:14:15:16 10.0.0.1

which causes vim to prefer line 1 of "file" again (due to the preference
order of the various patterns in the default errorformat).

There are other options. For example, at least in my version of vim,
wrapping the file in quotation marks like:

  "file":1: static_lease 10:11:12:13:14:15:16 10.0.0.1

also works. That perhaps would the right thing even if you had the silly
file name "file:1:1: foo 10". But it's not clear what would happen if
you had a filename with quotes in it.

This feature is inherently scraping text, and there's bound to be some
ambiguities. I don't think it's worth worrying too much about unlikely
filenames, as its the file content that is more likely to introduce
unexpected characters.

So let's just go with the extra ":1" column specifier. We know this is
supported everywhere, as git-jump's "grep" mode already uses it (and
thus doesn't exhibit the same problem).

The "merge" mode is mostly immune to this, as it only matches "<<<<<<<"
conflict marker lines. It's possible of course to have a marker that
says "foo 10:11" later in the line, but in practice these will only have
branches and perhaps file names, so it's probably not worth worrying
about (and fixing it would involve passing --column to the system grep,
which may not be portable).

I also gave some thought as to whether we could put something more
useful than "1" in the column field for diffs. In theory we could find
the first changed character of the line, but this is tricky in practice.
You'd have to correlate before/after lines of the hunk to decide what
changed. So:

  -this is a foo line
  +this is a bar line

is easy (column 11). But:

  -this is a foo line
  +another line
  +this is a bar line

is harder.

This commit certainly doesn't preclude trying to do something more
clever later, but it's a much deeper rabbit hole than just fixing the
syntactic ambiguity.

fbcdfab348 git-prompt: support custom 0-width PS1 markers
When using colors, the shell needs to identify 0-width substrings
in PS1 - such as color escape sequences - when calculating the
on-screen width of the prompt.

Until now, we used the form %F{<color>} in zsh - which it knows is
0-width, or otherwise use standard SGR esc sequences wrapped between
byte values 1 and 2 (SOH, STX) as 0-width start/end markers, which
bash/readline identify as such.

But now that more shells are supported, the standard SGR sequences
typically work, but the SOH/STX markers might not be identified.

This commit adds support for vars GIT_PS1_COLOR_{PRE,POST} which
set custom 0-width markers or disable the markers.

0dbe3d3f16 git-prompt: ta-da! document usage in other shells
With one big exception, git-prompt.sh should now be both almost posix
compliant, and also compatible with most (posix-ish) shells.

That exception is the use of "local" vars in functions, which happens
extensively in the current code, and is not simple to replace with
posix compliant code (but also not impossible).

Luckily, almost all shells support "local" as used by the current
code, with the notable exception of ksh93[u+m], but also the Schily
minimal posix sh (pbosh), and yash in posix mode.

See assessment below that "local" is likely the only blocker in those.

So except mainly ksh93, git-prompt.sh now works in most shells:
- bash, zsh, dash since at least 0.5.8, free/net bsd sh, busybox-ash,
  mksh, openbsd sh, pdksh(!), Schily extended Bourne sh (bosh), yash.

which is quite nice.

As an anecdote, replacing the 1st line in __git_ps1() (local exit=$?)
with these 2 makes it work in all tested shells, even without "local":

  # handles only 0/1 args for simplicity. needs +5 LOC for any $#
  __git_e=$?; local exit="$__git_e" 2>/dev/null ||
    {(eval 'local() { export "$@"; }'; __git_ps1 "$@"); return "$__git_e"; }

Explanation:

  If the shell doesn't have the command "local", define our own
  function "local" which instead does plain (global) assignents.
  Then use __git_ps1 in a subshell to not clober the caller's vars.

  This happens to work because currently there are no name conflicts
  (shadow) at the code, initial value is not assumed (i.e. always
  doing either 'local x=...'  or 'local x;...  x=...'), and assigned
  initial values are quoted (local x="$y"), preventing word split and
  glob expansion (i.e. assignment context is not assumed).

  The last two (always init, quote values) seem to be enough to use
  "local" portably if supported, and otherwise shells indeed differ.

  Uses "eval", else shells with "local" may reject it during parsing.
  We don't need "export", but it's smaller than writing our own loop.

While cute, this approach is not really sustainable because all the
vars become global, which is hard to maintain without conflicts
(but hey, it currently has no conflicts - without even trying...).

However, regardless of being an anecdote, it provides some support to
the assessment that "local" is the only blocker in those shells.

$'...' is new in POSIX (2024), and some shells support it in recent
versions, while others have had it for decades (bash, zsh, ksh93).

However, there are still enough shells which don't support it, and
it's cheap to use an alternative form which works in all shells,
so let's do that instead of dismissing it as "it's compliant".

It was agreed to use one form rather than $'...' where supported and
fallback otherwise.

shells where $'...' works:
- bash, zsh, ksh93, mksh, busybox-ash, dash master, free/net bsd sh.

shells where it doesn't work, but the new fallback works:
- all dash releases (up to 0.5.12), older versions of free/net bsd sh,
  openbsd sh, pdksh, all Schily Bourne sh variants, yash.

b732e08671 git-prompt: add some missing quotes
The issues which this commit fixes are unlikely to be broken
in real life, but the fixes improve correctness, and would prevent
bugs in some uncommon cases, such as weird IFS values.

Listing some portability guidelines here for future reference.

I'm leaving it to someone else to decide whether to include
it in the file itself, place it as a new file, or not.

---------

The command "local" is non standard, but is allowed in this file:
- Quote initialization if it can expand (local x="$y"). See below.
- Don't assume initial value after "local x". Either initialize it
  (local x=..), or set before first use (local x;.. x=..; <use $x>).
  (between shells, "local x" can unset x, or inherit it, or do x= )

Other non-standard features beyond "local" are to be avoided.

Use the standard "test" - [...] instead of non-standard [[...]] .

--------

Quotes (some portability things, but mainly general correctness):

Quotes prevent tilde-expansion of some unquoted literal tildes (~).
If the expansion is undesirable, quotes would ensure that.
  Tilds expanded: a=~user:~/ ;  echo ~user ~/dir
  not expanded:   t="~"; a=${t}user  b=\~foo~;  echo "~user" $t/dir

But the main reason for quoting is to prevent IFS field splitting
(which also coalesces IFS chars) and glob expansion in parts which
contain parameter/arithmetic expansion or command substitution.

"Simple command" (POSIX term) is assignment[s] and/or command [args].
Examples:
  foo=bar         # one assignment
  foo=$bar x=y    # two assignments
  foo bar         # command, no assignments
  x=123 foo bar   # one assignment and a command

The assignments part is not IFS-split or glob-expanded.

The command+args part does get IFS field split and glob expanded,
but only at unquoted expanded/substituted parts.

In the command+args part, expanded/substituted values must be quoted.
(the commands here are "[" and "local"):
  Good: [ "$mode" = yes ]; local s="*" x="$y" e="$?" z="$(cmd ...)"
  Bad:  [ $mode = yes ];   local s=*   x=$y   e=$?   z=$(cmd...)

The arguments to "local" do look like assignments, but they're not
the assignment part of a simple command; they're at the command part.

Still at the command part, no need to quote non-expandable values:
  Good:                 local x=   y=yes;   echo OK
  OK, but not required: local x="" y="yes"; echo "OK"
But completely empty (NULL) arguments must be quoted:
  foo ""   is not the same as:   foo

Assignments in simple commands - with or without an actual command,
don't need quoting becase there's no IFS split or glob expansion:
  Good:   s=* a=$b c=$(cmd...)${x# foo }${y-   } [cmd ...]
  It's also OK to use double quotes, but not required.

This behavior (no IFS/glob) is called "assignment context", and
"local" does not behave with assignment context in some shells,
hence we require quotes when using "local" - for compatibility.

The value between 'case' and 'in' doesn't IFS-split/glob-expand:
  Good:       case  * $foo $(cmd...)  in ... ; esac
  identical:  case "* $foo $(cmd...)" in ... ; esac

Nested quotes in command substitution are fine, often necessary:
  Good: echo "$(foo... "$x" "$(bar ...)")"

Nested quotes in substring ops are legal, and sometimes needed
to prevent interpretation as a pattern, but not the most readable:
  Legal:  foo "${x#*"$y" }"

Nested quotes in "maybe other value" subst are invalid, unnecessary:
  Good:  local x="${y- }";   foo "${z:+ $a }"
  Bad:   local x="${y-" "}"; foo "${z:+" $a "}"
Outer/inner quotes in "maybe other value" have different use cases:
  "${x-$y}"  always one quoted arg: "$x" if x is set, else "$y".
  ${x+"$x"}  one quoted arg "$x" if x is set, else no arg at all.
  Unquoted $x is similar to the second case, but it would get split
  into few arguments if it includes any of the IFS chars.

Assignments don't need the outer quotes, and the braces delimit the
value, so nested quotes can be avoided, for readability:
  a=$(foo "$x")  a=${x#*"$y" }  c=${y- };  bar "$a" "$b" "$c"

fe445a1026 git-prompt: replace [[...]] with standard code
The existing [[...]] tests were either already valid as standard [...]
tests, or only required minimal retouch:

Notes:

- [[...]] doesn't do field splitting and glob expansion, so $var
  or $(cmd...) don't need quoting, but [... does need quotes.

- [[ X == Y ]] when Y is a string is same as [ X = Y ], but if Y is
  a pattern, then we need:  case X in Y)... ; esac  .

- [[ ... && ... ]] was replaced with [ ... ] && [ ... ] .

- [[ -o <zsh-option> ]] requires [[...]], so put it in "eval" and only
  eval it in zsh, so other shells would not abort on syntax error
  (posix says [[ has unspecified results, shells allowed to reject it)

- ((x++)) was changed into x=$((x+1))  (yeah, not [[...]] ...)

Shells which accepted the previous forms:
- bash, zsh, ksh93, mksh, openbsd sh, pdksh.

Shells which didn't, and now can process it:
- dash, free/net bsd sh, busybox-ash, Schily Bourne sh, yash.

f2e264e43f git-prompt: don't use shell arrays
Arrays only existed in the svn-upstream code, used to:
- Keep a list of svn remotes.
- Convert commit msg to array of words, extract the 2nd-to-last word.

Except bash/zsh, nearly all shells failed load on syntax errors here.

Now:
- The svn remotes are a list of newline-terminated values.
- The 2nd-to-last word is extracted using standard shell substrings.
- All shells can digest the svn-upstream code.

While using shell field splitting to extract the word is simple, and
doesn't even need non-standard code, e.g. set -- $(git log -1 ...),
it would have the same issues as the old array code: it depends on IFS
which we don't control, and it's subject to glob-expansion, e.g. if
the message happens to include * or **/* (as this commit message just
did), then the array could get huge. This was not great.

Now it uses standard shell substrings, and we know the exact delimiter
to expect, because it's the match from our grep just one line earlier.

The new word extraction code also fixes svn-upstream in zsh, because
previously it used arr[len-2], but because in zsh, unlike bash, array
subscripts are 1-based, it incorrectly extracted the 3rd-to-last word.
symptom: missing upstream status in a git-svn repo: u=, u+N-M, etc.

The breakage in zsh is surprising, because it was last touched by
  commit d0583da838 (prompt: fix show upstream with svn and zsh),
claiming to fix exactly that. However, it only mentions syntax fixes.
It's unclear if behavior was fixed too. But it was broken, now fixed.

Note LF=$'\n' and then using $LF instead of $'\n' few times.
A future commit will add fallback for shells without $'...', so this
would be the only line to touch instead of replacing every $'\n' .

Shells which could run the previous array code:
- bash

Shells which have arrays but were broken anyway:
- zsh: 1-based subscript
- ksh93: no "local" (the new code can't fix this part...)
- mksh, openbsd sh, pdksh: failed load on syntax error: "for ((...))".

More shells which Failed to load due to syntax error:
- dash, free/net bsd sh, busybox-ash, Schily Bourne shell, yash.

6df4b09159 git-prompt: fix uninitialized variable
First use is in the form:  local var; ...; var=$var$whatever...

If the variable was unset (as bash and others do after "local x"),
then it would error if set -u is in effect.

Also, many shells inherit the existing value after "local var"
without init, but in this case it's unlikely to have a prior value.

Now we initialize it.

(local var= is enough, but local var="" is the custom in this file)

6c3c451fb6 Merge branch 'jk/osxkeychain-username-is-nul-terminated'

garbage bytes after the username, which has been corrected.

b201316835 credential/osxkeychain: respect NUL terminator in username
This patch fixes a case where git-credential-osxkeychain might output
uninitialized bytes to stdout.

We need to get the username string from a system API using
CFStringGetCString(). To do that, we get the max size for the string
from CFStringGetMaximumSizeForEncoding(), allocate a buffer based on
that, and then read into it. But then we print the entire buffer to
stdout, including the trailing NUL and any extra bytes which were not
needed. Instead, we should stop at the NUL.

This code comes from 9abe31f5f1 (osxkeychain: replace deprecated
SecKeychain API, 2024-02-17). The bug was probably overlooked back then
because this code is only used as a fallback when we can't get the
string via CFStringGetCStringPtr(). According to Apple's documentation:

  Whether or not this function returns a valid pointer or NULL depends
  on many factors, all of which depend on how the string was created and
  its properties.

So it's not clear how we could make a test for this, and we'll have to
rely on manually testing on a system that triggered the bug in the first
place.

e1ab45b2da osxkeychain: state to skip unnecessary store operations
git passes a credential that has been used successfully to the helpers
to record. If a credential is already stored,
"git-credential-osxkeychain store" just records the credential returned
by "git-credential-osxkeychain get", and unnecessary (sometimes
problematic) SecItemAdd() and/or SecItemUpdate() are performed.

We can skip such unnecessary operations by marking a credential returned
by "git-credential-osxkeychain get". This marking can be done by
utilizing the "state[]" feature:

- The "get" command sets the field "state[]=osxkeychain:seen=1".

- The "store" command skips its actual operation if the field
  "state[]=osxkeychain:seen=1" exists.

Introduce a new state "state[]=osxkeychain:seen=1".

fcf5b74e59 osxkeychain: exclusive lock to serialize execution of operations
git passes a credential that has been used successfully to the helpers
to record. If "git-credential-osxkeychain store" commands run in
parallel (with fetch.parallel configuration and/or by running multiple
git commands simultaneously), some of them may exit with the error
"failed to store: -25299". This is because SecItemUpdate() in
add_internet_password() may return errSecDuplicateItem (-25299) in this
situation. Apple's documentation [1] also states as below:

  In macOS, some of the functions of this API block while waiting for
  input from the user (for example, when the user is asked to unlock a
  keychain or give permission to change trust settings). In general, it
  is safe to use this API in threads other than your main thread, but
  avoid calling the functions from multiple operations, work queues, or
  threads concurrently. Instead, serialize function calls or confine
  them to a single thread.

The error has not been noticed before, because the former implementation
ignored the error.

Introduce an exclusive lock to serialize execution of operations.

3c20acdf46 completion: zsh: stop leaking local cache variable
Completing commands like "git rebase" in one repository will leak the
local __git_repo_path into the shell's environment so that completing
commands after changing to a different repository will give the old
repository's references (or none at all).

The bug report on the mailing list [1] suggests one simple way to observe
this yourself:

Enter the following commands from some directory:
  mkdir a b b/c
  for d (a b); git -C $d init && git -C $d commit --allow-empty -m init
  cd a
  git branch foo
  pushd ../b/c
  git branch bar

Now type these:
  git rebase <TAB>… # completion for bar available; C-c to abort
  declare -p __git_repo_path # outputs /path/to/b/.git
  popd
  git branch # outputs foo, main
  git rebase <TAB>… # completion candidates are bar, main!

Ideally, the last typed <TAB> should be yielding foo, main.

Commit beb6ee7163 (completion: extract repository discovery from
__gitdir(), 2017-02-03) anticipated this problem by marking
__git_repo_path as local in __git_main and __gitk_main for Bash
completion but did not give the same mark to _git for Zsh completion.
Thus make __git_repo_path local for Zsh completion, too.
