d85ada7cbd scalar: implement the delete command
Delete an enlistment by first unregistering the repository and then
deleting the enlistment directory (usually the directory containing the
worktree `src/` directory).

On Windows, if the current directory is inside the enlistment's
directory, change to the parent of the enlistment directory, to allow us
to delete the enlistment (directories used by processes e.g. as current
working directories cannot be deleted on Windows).

7020c88c30 scalar: implement the run command
Note: this subcommand is provided primarily for backwards-compatibility,
for existing Scalar uses. It is mostly just a shim for `git
maintenance`, mapping task names from the way Scalar called them to the
way Git calls them.

The reason why those names differ? The background maintenance was first
implemented in Scalar, and when it was contributed as a patch series
implementing the `git maintenance` command, reviewers suggested better
names, those suggestions were accepted before the patches were
integrated into core Git.

546f822d53 scalar: implement the clone subcommand
This implements Scalar's opinionated `clone` command: it tries to use a
partial clone and sets up a sparse checkout by default. In contrast to
`git clone`, `scalar clone` sets up the worktree in the `src/`
subdirectory, to encourage a separation between the source files and the
build output (which helps Git tremendously because it avoids untracked
files that have to be specifically ignored when refreshing the index).

Also, it registers the repository for regular, scheduled maintenance,
and configures a flurry of configuration settings based on the
experience and experiments of the Microsoft Windows and the Microsoft
Office development teams.

Note: since the `scalar clone` command is by far the most commonly
called `scalar` subcommand, we document it at the top of the manual
page.

c76a53eb71 scalar: 'unregister' stops background maintenance
Just like `scalar register` starts the scheduled background maintenance,
`scalar unregister` stops it. Note that we use `git maintenance start`
in `scalar register`, but we do not use `git maintenance stop` in
`scalar unregister`: this would stop maintenance for _all_ repositories,
not just for the one we want to unregister.

The `unregister` command also removes the corresponding entry from the
`[scalar]` section in the global Git config.

d0feac4e8c scalar: 'register' sets recommended config and starts maintenance
Let's start implementing the `register` command. With this commit,
recommended settings are configured upon `scalar register`, and Git's
background maintenance is started.

The recommended config settings may very well change in the future. For
example, once the built-in FSMonitor is available, we will want to
enable it upon `scalar register`. For that reason, we explicitly support
running `scalar register` in an already-registered enlistment.

9187659f9a scalar: create test infrastructure
To test the Scalar command, create a test script in contrib/scalar/t
that is executed as `make -C contrib/scalar test`. Since Scalar has no
meaningful capabilities yet, the only test is rather simple. We will add
more tests in subsequent commits that introduce corresponding, new
functionality.

Note: This test script is intended to test `scalar` only lightly, even
after all of the functionality is implemented.

A more comprehensive functional (or: integration) test suite can be
found at https://github.com/microsoft/scalar; It is used in the workflow
https://github.com/microsoft/git/blob/HEAD/.github/workflows/scalar-functional-tests.yml
in Microsoft's Git fork. This test suite performs end-to-end tests with
a real remote repository, and is run as part of the regular CI and PR
builds in that fork.

Since those tests require some functionality supported only by
Microsoft's Git fork ("GVFS protocol"), there is no intention to port
that fuller test suite to `contrib/scalar/`.

0a43fb2202 scalar: create a rudimentary executable
The idea of Scalar (https://github.com/microsoft/scalar), and before
that, of VFS for Git, has always been to prove that Git _can_ scale, and
to upstream whatever strategies have been demonstrated to help.

With this patch, we start the journey from that C# project to move what
is left to Git's own `contrib/` directory, reimplementing it in pure C,
with the intention to facilitate integrating the functionality into core
Git all while maintaining backwards-compatibility for existing Scalar
users (which will be much easier when both live in the same worktree).
It has always been the plan to contribute all of the proven strategies
back to core Git.

For example, while the virtual filesystem provided by VFS for Git helped
the team developing the Windows operating system to move onto Git, while
trying to upstream it we realized that it cannot be done: getting the
virtual filesystem to work (which we only managed to implement fully on
Windows, but not on, say, macOS or Linux), and the required server-side
support for the GVFS protocol, made this not quite feasible.

The Scalar project learned from that and tackled the problem with
different tactics: instead of pretending to Git that the working
directory is fully populated, it _specifically_ teaches Git about
partial clone (which is based on VFS for Git's cache server), about
sparse checkout (which VFS for Git tried to do transparently, in the
file system layer), and regularly runs maintenance tasks to keep the
repository in a healthy state.

With partial clone, sparse checkout and `git maintenance` having been
upstreamed, there is little left that `scalar.exe` does which `git.exe`
cannot do. One such thing is that `scalar clone <url>` will
automatically set up a partial, sparse clone, and configure
known-helpful settings from the start.

So let's bring this convenience into Git's tree.

The idea here is that you can (optionally) build Scalar via

	make -C contrib/scalar/

This will build the `scalar` executable and put it into the
contrib/scalar/ subdirectory.

The slightly awkward addition of the `contrib/scalar/*` bits to the
top-level `Makefile` are actually really required: we want to link to
`libgit.a`, which means that we will need to use the very same `CFLAGS`
and `LDFLAGS` as the rest of Git.

An early development version of this patch tried to replicate all the
conditional code in `contrib/scalar/Makefile` (e.g. `NO_POLL`) just like
`contrib/svn-fe/Makefile` used to do before it was retired. It turned
out to be quite the whack-a-mole game: the SHA-1-related flags, the
flags enabling/disabling `compat/poll/`, `compat/regex/`,
`compat/win32mmap.c` & friends depending on the current platform... To
put it mildly: it was a major mess.

Instead, this patch makes minimal changes to the top-level `Makefile` so
that the bits in `contrib/scalar/` can be compiled and linked, and
adds a `contrib/scalar/Makefile` that uses the top-level `Makefile` in a
most minimal way to do the actual compiling.

Note: With this commit, we only establish the infrastructure, no
Scalar functionality is implemented yet; We will do that incrementally
over the next few commits.

7bc341e21b git-compat-util: add a test balloon for C99 support
The C99 standard was released in January 1999, now 22 years ago.  It
provides a variety of useful features, including variadic arguments for
macros, declarations after statements, designated initializers, and a
wide variety of other useful features, many of which we already use.

We'd like to take advantage of these features, but we want to be
cautious.  As far as we know, all major compilers now support C99 or a
later C standard, such as C11 or C17.  POSIX has required C99 support as
a requirement for the 2001 revision, so we can safely assume any POSIX
system which we are interested in supporting has C99.

Even MSVC, long a holdout against modern C, now supports both C11 and
C17 with an appropriate update.  Moreover, even if people are using an
older version of MSVC on these systems, they will generally need some
implementation of the standard Unix utilities for the testsuite, and GNU
coreutils, the most common option, has required C99 since 2009.
Therefore, we can safely assume that a suitable version of GCC or clang
is available to users even if their version of MSVC is not sufficiently
capable.

Let's add a test balloon to git-compat-util.h to see if anyone is using
an older compiler.  We'll add a comment telling people how to enable
this functionality on GCC and Clang, even though modern versions of both
will automatically do the right thing, and ask people still experiencing
a problem to report that to us on the list.

Note that C89 compilers don't provide the __STDC_VERSION__ macro, so we
use a well-known hack of using "- 0".  On compilers with this macro, it
doesn't change the value, and on C89 compilers, the macro will be
replaced with nothing, and our value will be 0.

For sparse, we explicitly request the gnu99 style because we've
traditionally taken advantage of some GCC- and clang-specific extensions
when available and we'd like to retain the ability to do that.  sparse
also defaults to C89 without it, so things will fail for us if we don't.

Update the cmake configuration to require C11 for MSVC.  We do this
because this will make MSVC to use C11, since it does not explicitly
support C99.  We do this with a compiler options because setting the
C_STANDARD option does not work in our CI on MSVC and at the moment, we
don't want to require C11 for Unix compilers.

In the Makefile, don't set any compiler flags for the compiler itself,
since on some systems, such as FreeBSD, we actually need C11, and asking
for C99 causes things to fail to compile.  The error message should make
it obvious what's going wrong and allow a user to set the appropriate
option when building in the event they're using a Unix compiler that
doesn't support it by default.

4496526f80 xdiff: implement a zealous diff3, or "zdiff3"
"zdiff3" is identical to ordinary diff3 except that it allows compaction
of common lines on the two sides of history at the beginning or end of
the conflict hunk.  For example, the following diff3 conflict:

    1
    2
    3
    4
    <<<<<<
    A
    B
    C
    D
    E
    ||||||
    5
    6
    ======
    A
    X
    C
    Y
    E
    >>>>>>
    7
    8
    9

has common lines 'A', 'C', and 'E' on the two sides.  With zdiff3, one
would instead get the following conflict:

    1
    2
    3
    4
    A
    <<<<<<
    B
    C
    D
    ||||||
    5
    6
    ======
    X
    C
    Y
    >>>>>>
    E
    7
    8
    9

Note that the common lines, 'A', and 'E' were moved outside the
conflict.  Unlike with the two-way conflicts from the 'merge'
conflictStyle, the zdiff3 conflict is NOT split into multiple conflict
regions to allow the common 'C' lines to be shown outside a conflict,
because zdiff3 shows the base version too and the base version cannot be
reasonably split.

Note also that the removing of lines common to the two sides might make
the remaining text inside the conflict region match the base text inside
the conflict region (for example, if the diff3 conflict had '5 6 E' on
the right side of the conflict, then the common line 'E' would be moved
outside and both the base and right side's remaining conflict text would
be the lines '5' and '6').  This has the potential to surprise users and
make them think there should not have been a conflict, but there
definitely was a conflict and it should remain.

46b0585286 completion: fix incorrect bash/zsh string equality check
In the basic `[`/`test` command, the string equality operator is a
single `=`. The `==` operator is only available in `[[`, which is a
bash-ism also supported by zsh.

This mix-up was causing the following completion error in zsh:
> __git_ls_files_helper:7: = not found

(That message refers to the extraneous symbol in `==` ← `=`).

This updates that comparison to use a single `=` inside the
basic `[ … ]` test conditional.

Although this fix is inconsistent with the other comparisons in this
file, which use `[[ … == … ]]`, and the two expressions are functionally
identical in this context, that approach was rejected due to a
preference for `[`.

ebeb39faad git-sh-setup: remove "sane_grep", it's not needed anymore
Remove the sane_grep() shell function in git-sh-setup. The two reasons
for why it existed don't apply anymore:

1. It was added due to GNU grep supporting GREP_OPTIONS. See
   e1622bfcba (Protect scripted Porcelains from GREP_OPTIONS insanity,
   2009-11-23).

   Newer versions of GNU grep ignore that, but even on older versions
   its existence won't matter, none of these sane_grep() uses care
   about grep's output, they're merely using it to check if a string
   exists in a file or stream. We also don't care about the "LC_ALL=C"
   that "sane_grep" was using, these greps for fixed or ASCII strings
   will behave the same under any locale.

2. The SANE_TEXT_GREP added in 71b401032b (sane_grep: pass "-a" if
   grep accepts it, 2016-03-08) isn't needed either, none of these grep
   uses deal with binary data.

consistency. I.e. even if the first member is a pointer let's use "0"
instead of "NULL". The point of using "0" consistently is to pick one,
and to not have the reader wonder why we're not using the same pattern
everywhere.

94b7f1563a Comment important codepaths regarding nuking untracked files/dirs
In the last few commits we focused on code in unpack-trees.c that
mistakenly removed untracked files or directories.  There may be more of
those, but in this commit we change our focus: callers of toplevel
commands that are expected to remove untracked files or directories.

As noted previously, we have toplevel commands that are expected to
delete untracked files such as 'read-tree --reset', 'reset --hard', and
'checkout --force'.  However, that does not mean that other highlevel
commands that happen to call these other commands thought about or
conveyed to users the possibility that untracked files could be removed.
Audit the code for such callsites, and add comments near existing
callsites to mention whether these are safe or not.

My auditing is somewhat incomplete, though; it skipped several cases:
  * git-rebase--preserve-merges.sh: is in the process of being
    deprecated/removed, so I won't leave a note that there are
    likely more bugs in that script.
  * contrib/git-new-workdir: why is the -f flag being used in a new
    empty directory??  It shouldn't hurt, but it seems useless.
  * git-p4.py: Don't see why -f is needed for a new dir (maybe it's
    not and is just superfluous), but I'm not at all familiar with
    the p4 stuff
  * git-archimport.perl: Don't care; arch is long since dead
  * git-cvs*.perl: Don't care; cvs is long since dead

Also, the reset --hard in builtin/worktree.c looks safe, due to only
running in an empty directory.

cfe853e66b hook-list.h: add a generated list of hooks, like config-list.h
Make githooks(5) the source of truth for what hooks git supports, and
punt out early on hooks we don't know about in find_hook(). This
ensures that the documentation and the C code's idea about existing
hooks doesn't diverge.

We still have Perl and Python code running its own hooks, but that'll
be addressed by Emily Shaffer's upcoming "git hook run" command.

This resolves a long-standing TODO item in bugreport.c of there being
no centralized listing of hooks, and fixes a bug with the bugreport
listing only knowing about 1/4 of the p4 hooks. It didn't know about
the recent "reference-transaction" hook either.

We could make the find_hook() function die() or BUG() out if the new
known_hook() returned 0, but let's make it return NULL just as it does
when it can't find a hook of a known type. Making it die() is overly
anal, and unlikely to be what we need in catching stupid typos in the
name of some new hook hardcoded in git.git's sources. By making this
be tolerant of unknown hook names, changes in a later series to make
"git hook run" run arbitrary user-configured hook names will be easier
to implement.

I have not been able to directly test the CMake change being made
here. Since 4c2c38e800 (ci: modification of main.yml to use cmake for
vs-build job, 2020-06-26) some of the Windows CI has a hard dependency
on CMake, this change works there, and is to my eyes an obviously
correct use of a pattern established in previous CMake changes,
namely:

 - 061c2240b1 (Introduce CMake support for configuring Git,
    2020-06-12)
 - 709df95b78 (help: move list_config_help to builtin/help,
    2020-04-16)
 - 976aaedca0 (msvc: add a Makefile target to pre-generate the Visual
   Studio solution, 2019-07-29)

The LC_ALL=C is needed because at least in my locale the dash ("-") is
ignored for the purposes of sorting, which results in a different
order. I'm not aware of anything in git that has a hard dependency on
the order, but e.g. the bugreport output would end up using whatever
locale was in effect when git was compiled.

a9bacccae5 help / completion: make "git help" do the hard work
The "help" builtin has been able to emit configuration variables since
e17ca92637 (completion: drop the hard coded list of config vars,
2018-05-26), but it hasn't produced exactly the format the completion
script wanted. Let's do that.

We got partway there in 2675ea1cc0 (completion: use 'sort -u' to
deduplicate config variable names, 2019-08-13) and
d9438873c4 (completion: deduplicate configuration sections,
2019-08-13), but after both we still needed some sorting,
de-duplicating and awk post-processing of the list.

We can instead simply do the relevant parsing ourselves (we were doing
most of it already), and call string_list_remove_duplicates() after
already sorting the list, so the caller doesn't need to invoke "sort
-u". The "--config-for-completion" output is the same as before after
being passed through "sort -u".

Then add a new "--config-sections-for-completion" option. Under that
output we'll emit config sections like "alias" (instead of "alias." in
the --config-for-completion output).

We need to be careful to leave the "--config-for-completion" option
compatible with users git, but are still running a shell with an older
git-completion.bash. If we e.g. changed the option name they'd see
messages about git-completion.bash being unable to find the
"--config-for-completion" option.

Such backwards compatibility isn't something we should bend over
backwards for, it's only helping users who:

 * Upgrade git
 * Are in an old shell
 * The git-completion.bash in that shell hasn't cached the old
   "--config-for-completion" output already.

But since it's easy in this case to retain compatibility, let's do it,
the older versions of git-completion.bash won't care that the input
they get doesn't change after a "sort -u".

While we're at it let's make "--config-for-completion" die if there's
anything left over in "argc", and do the same in the new
"--config-sections-for-completion" option.

To help users transition who still did not receive the memo about the
deprecation, we offer a helpful error message instead of throwing our
hands in the air and saying that we don't know that option, never heard
of it.

be6444d1ca completion: bash: add correct suffix in variables
__gitcomp automatically adds a suffix, but __gitcomp_nl and others
don't, we need to specify a space by default.

Can be tested with:

  git config branch.autoSetupMe<tab>

This fix only works for versions of bash greater than 4.0, before that
"local sfx" creates an empty string, therefore the unset expansion
doesn't work. The same happens in zsh.

Therefore we don't add the test for that for now.

The correct fix for all shells requires semantic changes in __gitcomp,
but that can be done later.
