To do this the majority of _git_log has been factored out into the new
__git_complete_log_opts. This is needed because the visualize command
accepts git-log options but not rev arguments (they are fixed to the
commits under bisection).
__git_complete_log_opts has a precondition that COMPREPLY be empty. In
a completion context it doesn't seem advisable to implement
preconditions as noisy or hard failures, so instead it becomes a no-op
on violation. This should be detectable and quick to debug for devels,
without ever aggravating a user (besides completion failure).

The `__git_pseudoref_exists ()` helper function back to git-rev-parse(1)
in case the reftable backend is in use. This is not in the same spirit
as the simple existence check that the "files" backend does though,
because there we only check for the pseudo-ref to exist with `test -f`.
With git-rev-parse(1) we not only check for existence, but also verify
that the pseudo-ref resolves to an object, which may not be the case
when the pseudo-ref points to an unborn branch.
Fix this issue by using `git show-ref --exists` instead. Note that we do
not have to silence stdout anymore as git-show-ref(1) will not print
anything.

In 44dbb3bf29 (completion: support pseudoref existence checks for
reftables, 2023-12-19), we have extended the Bash completion script to
support future ref backends better by using git-rev-parse(1) to check
for pseudo-ref existence. This conversion has introduced a bug, because
even though we pass `--quiet` to git-rev-parse(1) it would still output
the resolved object ID of the ref in question if it exists.
Fix this by redirecting its stdout to `/dev/null` and add a test that
catches this behaviour. Note that the test passes even without the fix
for the "files" backend because we parse pseudo refs via the filesystem
directly in that case. But the test will fail with the "reftable"
backend.

Improve the existence check along the following lines:
- Stop stripping the "ref :" prefix and compare to the expected value
directly. This allows us to drop a now-unused variable that was
previously leaking into the user's shell.
- Mark the "head" variable as local so that we don't leak its value
into the user's shell.
- Stop manually handling the `-C $__git_repo_path` option, which the
`__git ()` wrapper aleady does for us.
- In simlar spirit, stop redirecting stderr, which is also handled by
the wrapper already.

The helper function `__git_pseudoref_exists ()` expects that the repo
path has already been discovered by its callers, which makes for a
rather fragile calling convention. Refactor the function to discover the
repo path itself to make it more self-contained, which also removes the
need to discover the path in some of its callers.

In this case the user has specifically said they don't want send-email

We're manually parsing the HEAD reference in git-prompt to figure out
whether it is a symbolic or direct reference. This makes it intimately
tied to the on-disk format we use to store references and will stop
working once we gain additional reference backends in the Git project.
Ideally, we would refactor the code to exclusively use plumbing tools to
read refs such that we do not have to care about the on-disk format at
all. Unfortunately though, spawning processes can be quite expensive on
some systems like Windows. As the Git prompt logic may be executed quite
frequently we try very hard to spawn as few processes as possible. This
refactoring is thus out of question for now.
Instead, condition the logic on the repository's ref format: if the repo
uses the the "files" backend we can continue to use the old logic and
read the respective files from disk directly. If it's anything else,
then we use git-symbolic-ref(1) to read the value of HEAD.
This change makes the Git prompt compatible with the upcoming "reftable"
format.

In contrib/completion/git-completion.bash, there are a bunch of
instances where we read pseudorefs, such as HEAD, MERGE_HEAD,
REVERT_HEAD, and others via the filesystem. However, the upcoming
reftable refs backend won't use '.git/HEAD' at all but instead will
write an invalid refname as placeholder for backwards compatibility,
which will break the git-completion script.
Update the '__git_pseudoref_exists' function to:
1. Recognize the placeholder '.git/HEAD' written by the reftable
backend (its content is specified in the reftable specs).
2. If reftable is in use, use 'git rev-parse' to determine whether the
given ref exists.
3. Otherwise, continue to use 'test -f' to check for the ref's filename.

It is tempting to think of "files and directories" of the current
directory as valid inputs to the add and set subcommands of git
sparse-checkout. However, in non-cone mode, they often aren't and using
them as potential completions leads to *many* forms of confusion:
Issue #1. It provides the *wrong* files and directories.
For
git sparse-checkout add
we always want to add files and directories not currently in our sparse
checkout, which means we want file and directories not currently present
in the current working tree. Providing the files and directories
currently present is thus always wrong.
For
git sparse-checkout set
we have a similar problem except in the subset of cases where we are
trying to narrow our checkout to a strict subset of what we already
have. That is not a very common scenario, especially since it often
does not even happen to be true for the first use of the command; for
years we required users to create a sparse-checkout via
git sparse-checkout init
git sparse-checkout set <args...>
(or use a clone option that did the init step for you at clone time).
The init command creates a minimal sparse-checkout with just the
top-level directory present, meaning the set command has to be used to
expand the checkout. Thus, only in a special and perhaps unusual cases
would any of the suggestions from normal file and directory completion
be appropriate.
Issue #2: Suggesting patterns that lead to warnings is unfriendly.
If the user specifies any regular file and omits the leading '/', then
the sparse-checkout command will warn the user that their command is
problematic and suggest they use a leading slash instead.
Issue #3: Completion gets confused by leading '/', and provides wrong paths.
Users often want to anchor their patterns to the toplevel of the
repository, especially when listing individual files. There are a
number of reasons for this, but notably even sparse-checkout encourages
them to do so (as noted above). However, if users do so (via adding a
leading '/' to their pattern), then bash completion will interpret the
leading slash not as a request for a path at the toplevel of the
repository, but as a request for a path at the root of the filesytem.
That means at best that completion cannot help with such paths, and if
it does find any completions, they are almost guaranteed to be wrong.
Issue #4: Suggesting invalid patterns from subdirectories is unfriendly.
There is no per-directory equivalent to .gitignore with
sparse-checkouts. There is only a single worktree-global
$GIT_DIR/info/sparse-checkout file. As such, paths to files must be
specified relative to the toplevel of a repository. Providing
suggestions of paths that are relative to the current working directory,
as bash completion defaults to, is wrong when the current working
directory is not the worktree toplevel directory.
Issue #5: Paths with special characters will be interpreted incorrectly
The entries in the sparse-checkout file are patterns, not paths. While
most paths also qualify as patterns (though even in such cases it would
be better for users to not use them directly but prefix them with a
leading '/'), there are a variety of special characters that would need
special escaping beyond the normal shell escaping: '*', '?', '\', '[',
']', and any leading '#' or '!'. If completion suggests any such paths,
users will likely expect them to be treated as an exact path rather than
as a pattern that might match some number of files other than 1.
However, despite the first four issues, we can note that _if_ users are
using tab completion, then they are probably trying to specify a path in
the index. As such, we transform their argument into a top-level-rooted
pattern that matches such a file. For example, if they type:
git sparse-checkout add Make<TAB>
we could "complete" to
git sparse-checkout add /Makefile
or, if they ran from the Documentation/technical/ subdirectory:
git sparse-checkout add m<TAB>
we could "complete" it to:
git sparse-checkout add /Documentation/technical/multi-pack-index.txt
Note in both cases I use "complete" in quotes, because we actually add
characters both before and after the argument in question, so we are
kind of abusing "bash completions" to be "bash completions AND
beginnings".
The fifth issue is a bit stickier, especially when you consider that we
not only need to deal with escaping issues because of special meanings
of patterns in sparse-checkout & gitignore files, but also that we need
to consider escaping issues due to ls-files needing to sometimes quote
or escape characters, and because the shell needs to escape some
characters. The multiple interacting forms of escaping could get ugly;
this patch makes no attempt to do so and simply documents that we
decided to not deal with those corner cases for now but at least get the
common cases right.

The "set" and "add" subcommands of "sparse-checkout", when in cone mode,
should only complete on directories. For bash_completion in general,
when no completions are returned for any subcommands, it will often fall
back to standard completion of files and directories as a substitute.
That is not helpful here. Since we have already looked for all valid
completions, if none are found then falling back to standard bash file
and directory completion is at best actively misleading. In fact, there
are three different ways it can be actively misleading. Add a long
comment in the code about how that fallback behavior can deceive, and
disable the fallback by returning a fake result as the sole completion.

_git_sparse_checkout() was checking whether we were in cone mode by
checking whether either:
A) core.sparseCheckoutCone was "true"
B) "--cone" was specified on the command line
This code has 2 bugs I didn't catch in my review at the time
1) core.sparseCheckout must be "true" for core.sparseCheckoutCone to
be relevant (which matters since "git sparse-checkout disable"
only unsets core.sparseCheckout, not core.sparseCheckoutCone)
2) The presence of "--no-cone" should override any config setting
Further, I forgot to update this logic as part of 2d95707a02
("sparse-checkout: make --cone the default", 2022-04-22) for the new
default.
Update the code for the new default and make it be more careful in
determining whether to complete based on cone mode or non-cone mode.

If, in the root of a project, one types
git sparse-checkout set --cone ../<TAB>
then an error message of the form
fatal: ../: '../' is outside repository at '/home/newren/floss/git'
is written to stderr, which munges the users view of their own command.
Squelch such messages by using the __git() wrapper, designed for this

Many of our Perl scripts will continue to run with 5.8.0 but this change
allows us to adjust them as needed without breaking any promises to our

The Perl requirement was last changed in d48b284183 (perl: bump the

5.8.0 was 8 years old. It is now over 21 years old.

Functions in git-subtree.sh all assert that they are being passed the
correct number of arguments. In cases where we accept a variable number
of arguments we assert this via a single call to `test` with `-o`, which
is discouraged by our coding guidelines.
Convert these cases to stop doing so. This requires us to decompose
assertions of the style `assert test $# = 2 -o $# = 3` into two calls
because we have no easy way to logically chain statements passed to the
assert function.

Our coding guidelines say to not use `test` with `-a` and `-o` because
it can easily lead to bugs. Convert trivial cases where we still use
these to instead instead concatenate multiple invocations of `test` via
`&&` and `||`, respectively.
While not all of the converted instances can cause ambiguity, it is
worth getting rid of all of them regardless:
- It becomes easier to reason about the code as we do not have to
argue why one use of `-a`/`-o` is okay while another one isn't.
- We don't encourage people to use these expressions.

The primary purpose of Git's CMake definition is to allow developing Git
in Visual Studio. As part of that, the CTest feature allows running
individual test scripts conveniently in Visual Studio's Test Explorer.
However, this Test Explorer's design targets object-oriented languages
and therefore expects the test names in the form
`<namespace>.<class>.<testname>`. And since we specify the full path
of the test scripts instead, including the ugly `/.././t/` part, these
dots confuse the Test Explorer and it uses a large part of the path as
"namespace".
Let's just use `t.suite.<name>` instead. This presents the tests in
Visual Studio's Test Explorer in the following form by default (i.e.
unless the user changes the view via the "Group by" menu):

xargs perl -p -i -e 's/test_i18ngrep /test_grep /'
and a good way to sanity check the result yourself is to run the
