Instead of using the convenience function run_command_v_opt_cd_env(), we
now use the run_command() function. The former function is simply a
wrapper of the latter, trying to make it more convenient to use.
However, we already have to construct the argv and the env parameters,
and we will need even finer control e.g. over the output of the command,
so let's just stop using the convenience function.

After checking connectivity, fsck looks through the list of
any objects we've seen mentioned, and reports unreachable
and un-"used" ones as dangling. However, it skips any object
which is not marked as "parsed", as that is an object that
we _don't_ have (but that somebody mentioned).
Since 6e454b9a3 (clear parsed flag when we free tree
buffers, 2013-06-05), that flag can't be relied on, and the
correct method is to check the HAS_OBJ flag. The cleanup in
that commit missed this callsite, though. As a result, we
would generally fail to report dangling trees.
We never noticed because there were no tests in this area
(for trees or otherwise). Let's add some.

t1450: clean up sub-objects in duplicate-entry test
This test creates a multi-level set of trees, but its
cleanup routine only removes the top-level tree. After the
test finishes, the inner tree and the blob it points to
remain, making the inner tree dangling.
A later test ("cleaned up") verifies that we've removed any
cruft and "git fsck" output is clean. This passes only
because of a bug in git-fsck which fails to notice dangling
trees.
In preparation for fixing the bug, let's teach this earlier
test to clean up after itself correctly. We have to remove
the inner tree (and therefore the blob, too, which becomes
dangling after removing that tree).
Since the setup code happens inside a subshell, we can't
just set a variable for each object. However, we can stuff
all of the sha1s into the $T output variable, which is not
used for anything except cleanup.

When a loose tree or commit is read by fsck (or any git
program), unpack_sha1_rest() checks whether there is extra
cruft at the end of the object file, after the zlib data.
Blobs that are streamed, however, do not have this check.
For normal git operations, it's not a big deal. We know the
sha1 and size checked out, so we have the object bytes we
wanted. The trailing garbage doesn't affect what we're
trying to do.
But since the point of fsck is to find corruption or other
problems, it should be more thorough. This patch teaches its
loose-sha1 reader to detect extra bytes after the zlib
stream and complain.

When we iterate over the list of loose objects to check, we
get the actual path of each object. But we then throw it
away and pass just the sha1 to fsck_sha1(), which will do a
fresh lookup. Usually it would find the same object, but it
may not if an object exists both as a loose and a packed
object. We may end up checking the packed object twice, and
never look at the loose one.
In practice this isn't too terrible, because if fsck doesn't
complain, it means you have at least one good copy. But
since the point of fsck is to look for corruption, we should
be thorough.
The new read_loose_object() interface can help us get the
data from disk, and then we replace parse_object() with
parse_object_buffer(). As a bonus, our error messages now
mention the path to a corrupted object, which should make it
easier to track down errors when they do happen.

It's surprisingly hard to ask the sha1_file code to open a
_specific_ incarnation of a loose object. Most of the
functions take a sha1, and loop over the various object
types (packed versus loose) and locations (local versus
alternates) at a low level.
However, some tools like fsck need to look at a specific
file. This patch gives them a function they can use to open
the loose object at a given path.
The implementation unfortunately ends up repeating bits of
related functions, but there's not a good way around it
without some major refactoring of the whole sha1_file stack.
We need to mmap the specific file, then partially read the
zlib stream to know whether we're streaming or not, and then
finally either stream it or copy the data to a buffer.
We can do that by assembling some of the more arcane
internal sha1_file functions, but we end up having to
essentially reimplement unpack_sha1_file(), along with the
streaming bits of check_sha1_signature().
Still, most of the ugliness is contained in the new
function, and the interface is clean enough that it may be
reusable (though it seems unlikely anything but git-fsck
would care about opening a specific file).

The code paths in fsck for packed and loose objects are
quite different, and it is not immediately obvious that the
packed case behaves well. In particular:
1. The fsck_loose() function always returns "0" to tell the
iterator to keep checking more objects. Whereas
fsck_obj_buffer() (which handles packed objects)
returns -1. This is OK, because the callback machinery
for verify_pack() does not stop when it sees a non-zero
return.
2. The fsck_loose() function sets the ERROR_OBJECT bit
when fsck_obj() fails, whereas fsck_obj_buffer() sets it
only when it sees a corrupt object. This turns out not
to matter. We don't actually do anything with this bit
except exit the program with a non-zero code, and that
is handled already by the non-zero return from the
function.
So there are no bugs here, but it was certainly confusing to
me. And we do not test either of the properties in t1450
(neither that a non-corruption error will caused a non-zero
exit for a packed object, nor that we keep going after
seeing the first error). Let's test both of those
conditions, so that we'll notice if any of those assumptions
becomes invalid.

sha1_file: fix error message for alternate objects
When we fail to open a corrupt loose object, we report an
error and mention the filename via sha1_file_name().
However, that function will always give us a path in the
local repository, whereas the corrupt object may have come
from an alternate. The result is a very misleading error
message.
Teach the open_sha1_file() and stat_sha1_file() helpers to
pass back the path they found, so that we can report it
correctly.
Note that the pointers we return go to static storage (e.g.,
from sha1_file_name()), which is slightly dangerous.
However, these helpers are static local helpers, and the
names are used for immediately generating error messages.
The simplicity is an acceptable tradeoff for the danger.

Commit 90cf590f5 (fsck: optionally show more helpful info
for broken links, 2016-07-17) added a remove_loose_object()
helper, but we already had a remove_object() helper that did
the same thing. Let's combine these into one.
The implementations had a few subtle differences, so I've
tried to take the best of both:
- the original used "sed", but the newer version avoids
spawning an extra process
- the original processed "$*", which was nonsense, as it
assumed only a single sha1. Use "$1" to make that more
clear.
- the newer version ran an extra rev-parse, but it was not
necessary; it's sole caller already converted the
argument into a raw sha1
- the original used "rm -f", whereas the new one uses
"rm". The latter is better because it may notice a bug
or other unexpected failure in the test. (The original
does check that the object exists before we remove it,
which is good, but that's a subset of the possible
unexpected conditions).

versioncmp: generalize version sort suffix reordering
The 'versionsort.prereleaseSuffix' configuration variable, as its name
suggests, is supposed to only deal with tagnames with prerelease
suffixes, and allows sorting those prerelease tags in a user-defined
order before the suffixless main release tag, instead of sorting them
simply lexicographically.
However, the previous changes in this series resulted in an
interesting and useful property of version sort:
- The empty string as a configured suffix matches all tagnames,
including tagnames without any suffix, but
- tagnames containing a "real" configured suffix are still ordered
according to that real suffix, because any longer suffix takes
precedence over the empty string.
Exploiting this property we can easily generalize suffix reordering
and specify the order of tags with given suffixes not only before but
even after a main release tag by using the empty suffix to denote the
position of the main release tag, without any algorithm changes:
Since 'versionsort.prereleaseSuffix' is not a fitting name for a
configuration variable to control this more general suffix reordering,
introduce the new variable 'versionsort.suffix'. Still keep the old
configuration variable name as a deprecated alias, though, to avoid
suddenly breaking setups already using it. Ignore the old variable if
both old and new configuration variables are set, but emit a warning
so users will be aware of it and can fix their configuration. Extend
the documentation to describe and add a test to check this more
general behavior.
Note: since the empty suffix matches all tagnames, tagnames with
suffixes not included in the configuration are listed together with
the suffixless main release tag, ordered lexicographically right after
that, i.e. before tags with suffixes listed in the configuration
following the empty suffix.

Our error() and die() calls may report messages with
arbitrary data (e.g., filenames or even data from a remote
server). Let's make it harder to cause confusion with
mischievous filenames. E.g., try:
git rev-parse "$(printf "\rfatal: this argument is too sneaky")" --
Let's block all ASCII control characters, with the exception
of TAB and LF. We use both in our own messages (and we are
necessarily sanitizing the complete output of snprintf here,
as we do not have access to the individual varargs). And TAB
and LF are unlikely to cause confusion (you could put
"\nfatal: sneaky\n" in your filename, but it would at least
not _cover up_ the message leading to it, unlike "\r").
We'll replace the characters with a "?", which is similar to
how "ls" behaves. It might be nice to do something less
lossy, like converting them to "\x" hex codes. But replacing
with a single character makes it easy to do in-place and
without worrying about length limitations. This feature
should kick in rarely enough that the "?" marks are almost
never seen.
We'll leave high-bit characters as-is, as they are likely to
be UTF-8 (though there may be some Unicode mischief you
could cause, which may require further patches).

The purpose of that commit was to let us write errors of
arbitrary length to stderr by skipping the intermediate
buffer and sending our varargs straight to fprintf. That
works, but it comes with a downside: we do not get access to
the varargs before they are sent to stderr.
On balance, it's not a good tradeoff. Error messages larger
than our 4K buffer are quite uncommon, and we've lost the
ability to make any modifications to the output (e.g., to
remove non-printable characters).
The only way to have both would be one of:
1. Write into a dynamic buffer. But this is a bad idea for
a low-level function that may be called when malloc()
has failed.
2. Do our own printf-format varargs parsing. This is too
complex to be worth the trouble.
Let's just revert that change and go back to a fixed buffer.

t7810: avoid assumption about invalid regex syntax
A few of the tests want to check that "git grep -P -E" will
override -P with -E, and vice versa. To do so, we use a
regex with "\x{..}", which is valid in PCRE but not defined
by POSIX (for basic or extended regular expressions).
However, POSIX declares quite a lot of syntax, including
"\x", as "undefined". That leaves implementations free to
extend the standard if they choose. At least one, musl libc,
implements "\x" in the same way as PCRE. Our tests check
that "-E" complains about "\x", which fails with musl.
We can fix this by finding some construct which behaves
reliably on both PCRE and POSIX, but differently in each
system.
One such construct is the use of backslash inside brackets.
In PCRE, "[\d]" interprets "\d" as it would outside the
brackets, matching a digit. Whereas in POSIX, the backslash
must be treated literally, and we match either it or a
literal "d". Moreover, implementations are not free to
change this according to POSIX, so we should be able to rely
on it.

2. Take one of the cases where we hit a BUG and turn it into a normal
"there was something wrong with the input" message.
This assertion triggered for cases where there wasn't a programming
bug, but just bogus input. In particular, if the user asks for a
pathspec that is inside a submodule, we shouldn't assert() or
die("BUG"); we should tell the user their request is bogus.
The only reason we did not check for it, is the expensive nature
of such a check, so callers avoid setting the flag
PATHSPEC_STRIP_SUBMODULE_SLASH_EXPENSIVE. However when we die due
to bogus input, the expense of CPU cycles spent outweighs the user
wondering what went wrong, so run that check unconditionally before
dying with a more generic error message.
Note: There is a case (e.g. "git -C submodule add .") in which we call
strip_submodule_slash_expensive, as git-add requests it via the flag
PATHSPEC_STRIP_SUBMODULE_SLASH_EXPENSIVE, but the assert used to
trigger nevertheless, because the flag PATHSPEC_LITERAL was not set,
such that we executed
if (item->nowildcard_len < prefixlen)
item->nowildcard_len = prefixlen;
and prefixlen was not adapted (e.g. it was computed from "submodule/")
So in the die_inside_submodule_path function we also need handle paths,
that were stripped before, i.e. are the exact submodule path. This
is why the conditions in die_inside_submodule_path are slightly
different than in strip_submodule_slash_expensive.

The interactive rebase has the very special magic that a cherry-pick
that exits with a status different from 0 and 1 signifies a failure to
even record that a cherry-pick was started.
This can happen e.g. when a fast-forward fails because it would
overwrite untracked files.
In that case, we must reschedule the command that we thought we already
had at least started successfully.

The sequencer already has an idea about using different merge
strategies. We just piggy-back on top of that, using rebase -i's
own settings, when running the sequencer in interactive rebase mode.

sequencer (rebase -i): respect the rebase.autostash setting
Git's `rebase` command inspects the `rebase.autostash` config setting
to determine whether it should stash any uncommitted changes before
rebasing and re-apply them afterwards.
As we introduce more bits and pieces to let the sequencer act as
interactive rebase's backend, here is the part that adds support for
the autostash feature.

When rebasing commits that have commit notes attached, the interactive

sequencer (rebase -i): update refs after a successful rebase
An interactive rebase operates on a detached HEAD (to keep the reflog
of the original branch relatively clean), and updates the branch only
at the end.
Now that the sequencer learns to perform interactive rebases, it also
needs to learn the trick to update the branch before removing the
directory containing the state of the interactive rebase.
We introduce a new head_ref variable in a wider scope than necessary at
the moment, to allow for a later patch that prints out "Successfully
rebased and updated <ref>".

sequencer (rebase -i): the todo can be empty when continuing
When the last command of an interactive rebase fails, the user needs to
resolve the problem and then continue the interactive rebase. Naturally,
the todo script is empty by then. So let's not complain about that!
To that end, let's move that test out of the function that parses the
todo script, and into the more high-level function read_populate_todo().
This is also necessary by now because the lower-level parse_insn_buffer()
has no idea whether we are performing an interactive rebase or not.

sequencer (rebase -i): skip some revert/cherry-pick specific code path
When a cherry-pick continues without a "todo script", the intention is
simply to pick a single commit.
However, when an interactive rebase is continued without a "todo
script", it means that the last command has been completed and that we
now need to clean up.
This commit guards the revert/cherry-pick specific steps so that they
are not executed in rebase -i mode.

sequencer (rebase -i): allow continuing with staged changes
When an interactive rebase is interrupted, the user may stage changes
before continuing, and we need to commit those changes in that case.
Please note that the nested "if" added to the sequencer_continue() is
not combined into a single "if" because it will be extended with an
"else" clause in a later patch in this patch series.

sequencer (rebase -i): write an author-script file
When the interactive rebase aborts, it writes out an author-script file
to record the author information for the current commit. As we are about
to teach the sequencer how to perform the actions behind an interactive
rebase, it needs to write those author-script files, too.

sequencer (rebase -i): implement the short commands

'p' instead of 'pick' and 'x' instead of 'exec'. Let's teach the
sequencer to handle those abbreviated commands just fine.

sequencer (rebase -i): add support for the 'fixup' and 'squash' commands
This is a huge patch, and at the same time a huge step forward to
execute the performance-critical parts of the interactive rebase in a
builtin command.
Since 'fixup' and 'squash' are not only similar, but also need to know
about each other (we want to reduce a series of fixups/squashes into a
single, final commit message edit, from the user's point of view), we
really have to implement them both at the same time.
Most of the actual work is done by the existing code path that already
handles the "pick" and the "edit" commands; We added support for other
features (e.g. to amend the commit message) in the patches leading up to
this one, yet there are still quite a few bits in this patch that simply
would not make sense as individual patches (such as: determining whether
there was anything to "fix up" in the "todo" script, etc).
In theory, it would be possible to reuse the fast-forward code path also
for the fixup and the squash code paths, but in practice this would make
the code less readable. The end result cannot be fast-forwarded anyway,
therefore let's just extend the cherry-picking code path for now.
Since the sequencer parses the entire `git-rebase-todo` script in one go,
fixup or squash commands without a preceding pick can be reported early
(in git-rebase--interactive, we could only report such errors just before
executing the fixup/squash).

In the interactive rebase, commands that were successfully processed are
not simply discarded, but appended to the 'done' file instead. This is

`git status` or the progress.

sequencer (rebase -i): learn about the 'verbose' mode
When calling `git rebase -i -v`, the user wants to see some statistics
after the commits were rebased. Let's show some.
The strbuf we use to perform that task will be used for other things
in subsequent commits, hence it is declared and initialized in a wider
scope than strictly needed here.

sequencer (rebase -i): implement the 'exec' command
The 'exec' command is a little special among rebase -i's commands, as it
does *not* have a SHA-1 as first parameter. Instead, everything after the
`exec` command is treated as command-line to execute.
Let's reuse the arg/arg_len fields of the todo_item structure (which hold
the oneline for pick/edit commands) to point to the command-line.

sequencer (rebase -i): implement the 'edit' command
This patch is a straight-forward reimplementation of the `edit`
operation of the interactive rebase command.
Well, not *quite* straight-forward: when stopping, the `edit`
command wants to write the `patch` file (which is not only the
patch, but includes the commit message and author information). To
that end, this patch requires the earlier work that taught the
log-tree machinery to respect the `file` setting of
rev_info->diffopt to write to a file stream different than stdout.

sequencer (rebase -i): implement the 'noop' command
The 'noop' command is probably the most boring of all rebase -i commands
to support in the sequencer.
Which makes it an excellent candidate for this first stab to add support
for rebase -i's commands to the sequencer.
For the moment, let's also treat empty lines and commented-out lines as
'noop'; We will refine that handling later in this patch series.
To make it easier to identify "classes" of todo_commands (such as:
determine whether a command is pick-like, i.e. handles a single commit),
let's enforce a certain order of said commands.

sequencer the work horse of the interactive rebase (the original idea
behind the "sequencer" concept).

sequencer: use a helper to find the commit message
It is actually not safe to look for a commit message by looking for the
first empty line and skipping it.
The find_commit_subject() function looks more carefully, so let's use
it. Since we are interested in the entire commit message, we re-compute
the string length after verifying that the commit subject is not empty
(in which case the entire commit message would be empty, something that
should not happen but that we want to handle gracefully).
