pack-objects: drop packlist index_pos optimization
Once upon a time, the code to add an object to our packing list in
pack-objects all lived in a single function. It computed the position
within the hash table once, then used it to check if the object was
already present, and if not, to add it.
Later, in 2834bc27c1 (pack-objects: refactor the packing list,
2013-10-24), this was split into two functions: packlist_find() and
packlist_alloc(). We ended up with an "index_pos" variable that gets
passed through several functions to make it from one to the other.
The resulting code is rather confusing to follow. The "index_pos"
variable is sometimes undefined, if we don't yet have a hash table. This
works out in practice because in that case packlist_alloc() won't use it
at all, since it will have to create/grow the hash table. But it's hard
to verify that, and it does cause gcc 9.2.1's -Wmaybe-uninitialized to
complain when compiled with "-flto -O3" (rightfully, since we do pass
the uninitialized value as a function parameter, even if nobody ends up
using it).
All of this is to save computing the hash index again when we're
inserting into the hash table, which I found doesn't make a measurable
difference in the program runtime (which is not surprising, since we're
doing all kinds of other heavyweight things for each object).
Let's just drop this index_pos variable entirely, simplifying the code
(and pleasing the compiler).
We might be better still refactoring this custom hash table to use one
of our existing implementations (an oidmap, or a kh_oid_map). I stopped
short of that here, but this would be the likely first step towards that
anyway.

Early in the function we set "namelen = strlen(name)" if "name" is
non-NULL. Later, we use "namelen" only if "name" is non-NULL. However,
it's hard to immediately see this, and it seems to confuse gcc 9.2.1
(with "-flto" interestingly, though all of the involved logic is in
inline functions; it also triggers when building with ASan).
Let's simplify the code and remove the variable entirely. There's only
one use of namelen anyway, so we can just call strlen() then. It's true
this is in a loop, so we might execute strlen() more often. But:
- this is test code that only ever loops twice in our test suite (we
do loop 1000 times in a t/perf test, but without using this option).
- a decent compiler ought to be able to hoist that out of the loop
anyway (though I wouldn't count on gcc 9.2.1 doing so!)

diff-delta: set size out-parameter to 0 for NULL delta
When we cannot generate a delta, we return NULL but leave delta_size
untouched. This is generally OK, as callers rely on NULL to decide if
the output is usable or not. But it can confuse compilers; in
particular, gcc 9.2.1 with "-flto -O3" complains in fast-import's
store_object() that delta_len may be used uninitialized.
Let's change the diff-delta code to set the size explicitly to 0 for a
NULL return. That silences the compiler and makes it easier to reason
about the result.

We declare a "struct hashfile_checkpoint" but only sometimes actually
call hashfile_checkpoint() on it. That makes it not immediately obvious
that it's valid when we later access its members.
In fact, the code is fine: we fill it in unconditionally in the while(1)
loop as long as "idx" is non-NULL. And then if "idx" is NULL, we exit
early from the function (because we're just computing the hash, not
actually writing), before we look at the struct.
However, this does seem to confuse gcc 9.2.1's -Wmaybe-uninitialized
when compiled with "-flto -O2" (probably because with LTO it can now
realize that our call to hashfile_truncate() does not set the members
either). Let's zero-initialize the struct to tell the compiler, as well
as any readers of the code, that all is well.

git-am: handle missing "author" when parsing commit
We try to parse the "author" line out of a commit buffer. We handle the
case that split_ident_line() doesn't work, but we don't do any error
checking that we found an "author" line in the first place! This would
cause us to segfault on such a corrupt object.
Let's put in an explicit NULL check (we can just die(), which is what a
bogus split would do, too). As a bonus, this silences a warning when
compiling with gcc 9.2.1 using "-flto -O3", which claims that ident_len
may be uninitialized (it would only be if we had a NULL here).

t/lib-git-svn.sh: check GIT_TEST_SVN_HTTPD when running SVN HTTP tests

be set to enable SVN HTTP tests [1].
Then 3b072c577b (tests: replace test_tristate with "git env--helper",
2019-06-21) came along, and attempted to turn GIT_SVN_TEST_HTTPD into
a bool, but while doing so it mistyped the variable name, and started
to check GIT_TEST_HTTPD instead. Consequently, if someone explicitly
set GIT_TEST_HTTPD to true and has only the general 'git-svn'
dependencies installed but not the Subversion server modules for
Apache (libapache2-mod-svn), then a couple of 'git-svn' tests fail,
because they can't start httpd due to the missing module.
We could simply fix this by checking the GIT_SVN_TEST_HTTPD
variablewith 'git env--helper', but notice that the name of this
variable doesn't conform to our usual GIT_TEST_* convention.
So let's check the GIT_TEST_SVN_HTTPD instead.

Recommend git-filter-repo instead of git-filter-branch
filter-branch suffers from a deluge of disguised dangers that disfigure
history rewrites (i.e. deviate from the deliberate changes). Many of
these problems are unobtrusive and can easily go undiscovered until the
new repository is in use. This can result in problems ranging from an
even messier history than what led folks to filter-branch in the first
place, to data loss or corruption. These issues cannot be backward
compatibly fixed, so add a warning to both filter-branch and its manpage
recommending that another tool (such as filter-repo) be used instead.
Also, update other manpages that referenced filter-branch. Several of
these needed updates even if we could continue recommending
filter-branch, either due to implying that something was unique to
filter-branch when it applied more generally to all history rewriting
tools (e.g. BFG, reposurgeon, fast-import, filter-repo), or because
something about filter-branch was used as an example despite other more
commonly known examples now existing. Reword these sections to fix
these issues and to avoid recommending filter-branch.
Finally, remove the section explaining BFG Repo Cleaner as an
alternative to filter-branch. I feel somewhat bad about this,
especially since I feel like I learned so much from BFG that I put to
good use in filter-repo (which is much more than I can say for
filter-branch), but keeping that section presented a few problems:
* In order to recommend that people quit using filter-branch, we need
to provide them a recomendation for something else to use that
can handle all the same types of rewrites. To my knowledge,
filter-repo is the only such tool. So it needs to be mentioned.
* I don't want to give conflicting recommendations to users
* If we recommend two tools, we shouldn't expect users to learn both
and pick which one to use; we should explain which problems one
can solve that the other can't or when one is much faster than
the other.
* BFG and filter-repo have similar performance
* All filtering types that BFG can do, filter-repo can also do. In
fact, filter-repo comes with a reimplementation of BFG named
bfg-ish which provides the same user-interface as BFG but with
several bugfixes and new features that are hard to implement in
BFG due to its technical underpinnings.
While I could still mention both tools, it seems like I would need to
provide some kind of comparison and I would ultimately just say that
filter-repo can do everything BFG can, so ultimately it seems that it
is just better to remove that section altogether.

t6006: simplify, fix, and optimize empty message test
Test t6006.71 ("oneline with empty message") was creating two commits
with simple commit messages, and then running filter-branch to rewrite
the commit messages to be "empty". This test was introduced in commit 1fb5fdd25f0 ("rev-list: fix --pretty=oneline with empty message",
2010-03-21) and written this way because the --allow-empty-message
option to git commit did not exist at the time.
However, the filter-branch invocation used differed slightly from
--allow-empty-message in that it would have a commit message consisting
solely of a single newline, and as such was not testing what the
original commit intended to test. Since both a truly empty commit
message and a commit message with a single linefeed could trigger the
original bug, modify the test slightly to include an example of each.
Despite only being one piece of the 71st test and there being 73 tests
overall, this small change to just this one test speeds up the overall
execution time of t6006 (as measured by the best of 3 runs of `time
./t6006-rev-list-format.sh`) by about 11% on Linux, 13% on Mac, and
about 15% on Windows.

Currently, there are two ways where the return codes of Git commands are
lost. The first way is when a command is in the upstream of a pipe. In a
pipe, only the return code of the last command is used. Thus, all other
commands will have their return codes masked. Rewrite pipes so that
there are no Git commands upstream.
The other way is when a command is in a non-assignment subshell. The
return code will be lost in favour of the surrounding command's. Rewrite
instances of this such that Git commands output to a file and
surrounding commands only call subshells with non-Git commands.
