merge-recursive: do not check working copy when creating a virtual merge base
There were a few cases in merge-recursive that could result in a
check for the presence of files in the working copy while trying to
create a virtual merge base. These were rare and innocuous, but
somewhat illogical. The two cases were:
* When there was naming conflicts (e.g. a D/F conflict) and we had to
pick a new unique name for a file. Since the new name is somewhat
arbitrary, it didn't matter that we consulted the working copy to
avoid picking a filename it has, but since the virtual merge base is
never checked out, it's a waste of time and slightly odd to do so.
* When two different files get renamed to the same name (on opposite
sides of the merge), we needed to delete the original filenames from
the cache and possibly also the working directory. The caller's check
for determining whether to delete from the working directory was a
call to would_lose_untracked(). It turns out this didn't matter
because remove_file() had logic to avoid modifying the working
directory when creating a virtual merge base, but there is no reason
for the caller to check the working directory in such circumstances.
It's a waste of time, if not also a bit weird.

In commit 51931bf (merge-recursive: Improve handling of rename
target vs. directory addition, 2011-08-11), I apparently added two
lines of code that were immediately duplicated a few lines later.
No idea why, other than it seems pretty clear this was a mistake:
there is no need to remove the same file twice; removing it once is
sufficient...especially since the intervening line was working with
a different file entirely.

merge: refuse to create too cool a merge by default
While it makes sense to allow merging unrelated histories of two
projects that started independently into one, in the way "gitk" was
merged to "git" itself aka "the coolest merge ever", such a merge is
still an unusual event. Worse, if somebody creates an independent
history by starting from a tarball of an established project and
sends a pull request to the original project, "git merge" however
happily creates such a merge without any sign of something unusual
is happening.
Teach "git merge" to refuse to create such a merge by default,
unless the user passes a new "--allow-unrelated-histories" option to
tell it that the user is aware that two unrelated projects are
merged.
Because such a "two project merge" is a rare event, a configuration
option to always allow such a merge is not added.
We could add the same option to "git pull" and have it passed
through to underlying "git merge". I do not have a fundamental
opposition against such a feature, but this commit does not do so
and instead leaves it as low-hanging fruit for others, because such
a "two project merge" would be done after fetching the other project
into some location in the working tree of an existing project and
making sure how well they fit together, it is sufficient to allow a
local merge without such an option pass-through from "git pull" to
"git merge". Many tests that are updated by this patch does the
pass-through manually by turning:
merge: fix NULL pointer dereference when merging nothing into void
When we are on an unborn branch and merging only one foreign parent,
we allow "git merge" to fast-forward to that foreign parent commit.
This codepath incorrectly attempted to dereference the list of
parents that the merge is going to record even when the list is
empty. It must refuse to operate instead when there is no parent.
All other codepaths make sure the list is not empty before they
dereference it, and are safe.

The "git -c var=value" option stuffs the config value into
$GIT_CONFIG_PARAMETERS, so that sub-processes can see it.
When the config is later read via git_config() or similar,
we parse it back out of that variable. The parsing end is a
little bit picky; it assumes that each entry was generated
with sq_quote_buf(), and that there is no extraneous
whitespace.
On the generating end, we are careful to append to an
existing $GIT_CONFIG_PARAMETERS variable if it exists.
However, our test for "should we add a space separator" is
too liberal: it will add one even if the environment
variable exists but is empty. As a result, you might end up
with:
GIT_CONFIG_PARAMETERS=" 'core.foo=bar'"
which the parser will choke on.
This was hard to trigger in older versions of git, since we
only set the variable when we had something to put into it
(though you could certainly trigger it manually). But since 14111fc (git: submodule honor -c credential.* from command
line, 2016-02-29), the submodule code will unconditionally
put the $GIT_CONFIG_PARAMETERS variable into the environment
of any operation in the submodule, whether it is empty or
not. So any of those operations which themselves use "git
-c" will generate the unparseable value and fail.
We can easily fix it by catching this case on the generating
side. While we're adding a test, let's also check that
multiple layers of "git -c" work, which was previously not
tested at all.

On Windows, we have that funny situation where the test script can refer
to POSIX paths because it runs in a shell that uses a POSIX emulation
layer ("MSYS2 runtime"). Yet, git.exe does *not* understand POSIX paths
at all but only pure Windows paths.
So let's just convert the POSIX paths to Windows paths before passing
them on to Git, using `pwd` (which is already modified on Windows to
output Windows paths).
While fixing the new tests on Windows, we also have to exclude the tests
that want to write a file with a name that is illegal on Windows
(unfortunately, there is more than one test trying to make use of that
file).

t1300-repo-config: make it resilient to being run via 'sh -x'
One way to diagnose broken regression tests is to run the test
script using 'sh -x t... -i -v' to find out which call actually
demonstrates the symptom.
Hence it is pretty counterproductive if the test script behaves
differently when being run via 'sh -x', in particular when using
test_cmp or test_i18ncmp on redirected stderr. A more recent way
"sh tXXXX -i -v -x" has the same issue.
So let's use test_i18ngrep (as suggested by Jonathan Nieder) instead of
test_cmp/test_i18ncmp to verify that stderr looks as expected.

This regression was introduced in 74703a1e4dfc (submodule: rewrite
`module_list` shell function in C, 2015-09-02), as we changed the
order of checking in new module listing to first check whether it is
a gitlin before feeding it to match_pathspec(). It used to be that
a pathspec that does not match any path were diagnosed as an error,
but the new code complains for a pathspec that does not match any
submodule path.
Arguably the new behaviour may give us a better diagnosis, but that
is inconsistent with the suggestion "deinit" gives, and also this
was an unintended accident. The new behaviour hopefully can be
redesigned and implemented better in future releases, but for now,
switch these two checks to restore the same behavior as before. In
an empty repository, giving the pathspec '.' will still get the same
"did not match" error, but that is the same bug we had before 1.7.0.

tag: add the option to force signing of annotated tags
The `tag.forcesignannotated` configuration variable makes "git tag"
that would implicitly create an annotated tag to instead create a
signed tag. For example
$ git tag -m "This is a message" tag-with-message
$ git tag -F message-file tag-with-message
would create a signed tag if the configuration variable is in
effect. To override this from the command line, the user can
explicitly ask for an annotated tag, like so:
$ git tag -a -m "This is a message" tag-with-message
$ git tag -a -F message-file tag-with-message
Creation of a light-weight tag, i.e.
$ git tag lightweight

We set GIT_CONFIG_NOSYSTEM in our test scripts so that we do
not accidentally read /etc/gitconfig and have it influence
the outcome of the tests. But when running smart-http tests,
Apache will clean the environment, including this variable,
and the "server" side of our http operations will read it.
You can see this breakage by doing something like:
make
./git config --system http.getanyfile false
make test
which will cause t5561 to fail when it tests the
fallback-to-dumb operation.
We can fix this by instructing Apache to pass through the
variable. Unlike with other variables (e.g., 89c57ab3's
GIT_TRACE), we don't need to set a dummy value to prevent
warnings from Apache. test-lib.sh already makes sure that

But if there is trailing whitespace, we include that, too.
This confuses quotewords() when we try to split the
