tests: add a special setup where prerequisites fail
As discussed in [1] there's a regression in the "pu" branch now
because a new test implicitly assumed that a previous test guarded by
a prerequisite had been run. Add a "GIT_TEST_FAIL_PREREQS" special
test setup where we'll skip (nearly) all tests guarded by
prerequisites, allowing us to easily emulate those platform where we
don't run these tests.
As noted in the documentation I'm adding I'm whitelisting the SYMLINKS
prerequisite for now. A lot of tests started failing if we lied about
not supporting symlinks. It's also unlikely that we'll have a failing
test due to a hard dependency on symlinks without that being the
obvious cause, so for now it's not worth the effort to make it work.
"git chery-pick" (and "revert" that shares the same runtime engine)
that deals with multiple commits got confused when the final step

enter/leave points, not two enter/enter points. This resulted in an
"enter" event without a corresponding "leave" event.

"git merge-recursive" backend recently learned a new heuristics to
infer file movement based on how other files in the same directory
moved. As this is inherently less robust heuristics than the one
based on the content similarity of the file itself (rather than

outcome unexpected by the end users. This has been toned down to
leave the renamed paths in higher/conflicted stages in the index so
that the user can examine and confirm the result.

trace2: fixup access problem on /etc/gitconfig in read_very_early_config
Teach do_git_config_sequence() to optionally gently check for access to

In [1] SZEDER Gábor reported that my changes in [2] introduced a
regression when the user does not have permission to read the system

This commit addresses that problem by optionally ignoring that error.

*.[ch]: remove extern from function declarations using sed
There has been a push to remove extern from function declarations.
Finish the job by removing all instances of "extern" for function
declarations in headers using sed.
This was done by running the following on my system with sed 4.2.2:
Files under `compat/` are intentionally excluded as some are directly
copied from external sources and we should avoid churning them as much
as possible.
Then, leftover instances of extern were found by running
$ git grep -w -C3 extern \*.{c,h}
and manually checking the output. No other instances were found.
Note that the regex used specifically excludes function variables which
_should_ be left as extern.
Not the most elegant way to do it but it gets the job done.

We don't cover the partial clone feature at all in t/perf. Let's at
least run a few basic tests so that we'll notice any regressions.
We'll do a no-blob clone, and split it into two parts: the actual object
transfer, and the subsequent checkout (which will of course require
another transfer to get the blobs). That will help us more clearly
assess the performance of each.
There are obviously a lot more possibilities besides just a no-blob
partial clone, but this should serve as a canary that alerts us to any
generic slow-downs (and we can add more tests later for cases that
aren't exercised here).
There are a few non-ideal things here that make this not an entirely
accurate test, but are probably OK for our purposes:
1. We have to do some extra prep/cleanup work inside the timing tests,
since they impact the on-disk state and the perf harness may run
each one multiple times.
In practice this is probably OK, since these bits should be much
less expensive than the operations we are measuring.
2. The clone time is likely to be dominated by the server's object
enumeration. In the real world, a repo large enough to drive people
to partial clones is likely to have reachability bitmaps enabled.
And in the opposite direction, our object transfer is happening at
the speed of a local pipe, whereas in the real world it would
bottle-neck on the network.
So any percentage speedups should be taken with a grain of salt.
But hopefully any regressions will produce enough of an effect to
be noticeable.
This script also demonstrates the recent improvement from dfa33a298d

t/perf: depend on perl JSON only when using --codespeed
Commit 05eb1c37ed (perf/aggregate: implement codespeed JSON output,
2018-01-05) added a dependency on the perl JSON module to show output
from aggregate.perl, but we only need it when the user asks for
--codespeed output. While the module is pretty common, it's not part of
the base system, and this dependency can get in the way of producing the
default human-readable output.
Let's bump the "use" down to a "require" in the code path that needs it,
which will be interpreted at run-time instead of compile-time. People
not using "--codespeed" won't even load the module, and anybody using it
should see the same results (including the same perl error if they don't
have it).
Note that this skips the importing step, so we'll have to fully qualify
our function call. We could accomplish the same thing in other ways.
E.g., calling JSON->import() ourselves, or wrapping "use JSON" in an
eval. Since there's only one such call, this seems like the
least-magical way of doing it.

doc/ls-files: put nested list for "-t" option into block
The description for the "-t" option contains a sub-list of all of the
possible file status outputs. But because of the newline separating that
list from the description paragraph, asciidoc treats the sub-list
entries as a continuation of the overall options list, rather than as
children of the "-t" description.
We could fix it by adding a "+" before the sub-list to connect it to the
rest of the "-t" text. But using a pair of "--" to delimit the block is
perhaps more readable, and may have better compatibility with
asciidoctor, as in 39a869b2f2 (Documentation/rev-list-options: wrap
--date=<format> block with "--", 2019-03-30).
The extra blank line comes from 5bc0e247c4 (Document ls-files -t as
semi-obsolete., 2010-07-28), but the problem actually seems older than
that. Before then, we did:

etc...
but asciidoc also treats that as one big list. So this problem seems to
have been around forever.

The p5302 script runs "index-pack --stdin" in each timing test. It does
two things to try to get good timings:
1. we do the repo creation in a separate (non-timed) setup test, so
that our timing is purely the index-pack run
2. we use a separate repo for each test; this is important because the
presence of existing objects in the repo influences the result
(because we'll end up doing collision checks against them)
But this forgets one thing: we generally run each timed test multiple
times to reduce the impact of noise. Which means that repeats of each
test after the first will be subject to the collision slowdown from
point 2, and we'll generally just end up taking the first time anyway.
Instead, let's create the repo in the test (effectively undoing point
1). That does add a constant amount of extra work to each iteration, but
it's quite small compared to the actual effects we're interested in
measuring.

Makefile: dedup list of files obtained from ls-files
Since 33533975 ("Makefile: ask "ls-files" to list source files if
available", 2011-10-18), we optionally asked "ls-files" to list the
source files that ought to exist, as a faster approximation for
"find" on working tree files.
This works reasonably well, except that it ends up listing the same
path multiple times if the index is unmerged. Because the original
use of this construct was to name files to run etags over, and the
etags command happily takes the same filename multiple times without
causing any harm, there was no problem (other than perhaps spending
slightly more cycles, but who cares how fast the TAGS file gets
updated).
We however recently added a similar call to "ls-files" to list *.h
files, instead of using "find", in 92b88eba ("Makefile: use `git
ls-files` to list header files, if possible", 2019-03-04). In this
new use of "ls-files", the resulting list $(LIB_H) is used for,
among other things, generating the header files to run hdr-check
target, and the duplicate unfortunately becomes a true problem. It
causes $(MAKE) to notice that there are multiple %.hco targets and
complain.
Let the resulting list consumed by $(sort), which deduplicates,
to fix this.

The tests have been updated not to rely on the abbreviated option
names the parse-options API offers, to protect us from an
abbreviated form of an option that used to be unique within the
command getting non-unique when a new option that share the same
prefix is added.
* js/spell-out-options-in-tests:
tests: disallow the use of abbreviated options (by default)
tests (pack-objects): use the full, unabbreviated `--revs` option
tests (status): spell out the `--find-renames` option in full
tests (push): do not abbreviate the `--follow-tags` option
t5531: avoid using an abbreviated option
t7810: do not abbreviate `--no-exclude-standard` nor `--invert-match`
tests (rebase): spell out the `--force-rebase` option
tests (rebase): spell out the `--keep-empty` option
