Since 650c44925 (common-main: call git_extract_argv0_path(),
2016-07-01), the argv[0] that is seen in cmd_main() of
individual programs is always the basename of the
executable, as common-main strips off the full path. This
can produce confusing results for git-daemon, which wants to
re-exec itself.
For instance, if the program was originally run as
"/usr/lib/git/git-daemon", it will try just re-execing
"git-daemon", which will find the first instance in $PATH.
If git's exec-path has not been prepended to $PATH, we may
find the git-daemon from a different version (or no
git-daemon at all).
Normally this isn't a problem. Git commands are run as "git
daemon", the git wrapper puts the exec-path at the front of
$PATH, and argv[0] is already "daemon" anyway. But running
git-daemon via its full exec-path, while not really a
recommended method, did work prior to 650c44925. Let's make
it work again.
The real goal of 650c44925 was not to munge argv[0], but to
reliably set the argv0_path global. The only reason it
munges at all is that one caller, the git.c wrapper,
piggy-backed on that computation to find the command
basename. Instead, let's leave argv[0] untouched in
common-main, and have git.c do its own basename computation.
While we're at it, let's drop the return value from
git_extract_argv0_path(). It was only ever used in this one
callsite, and its dual purposes is what led to this
confusion in the first place.
Note that by changing the interface, the compiler can
confirm for us that there are no other callers storing the
return value. But the compiler can't tell us whether any of
the cmd_main() functions (besides git.c) were relying on the
basename munging. However, we can observe that prior to 650c44925, no other cmd_main() functions did that munging,
and no new cmd_main() functions have been introduced since
then. So we can't be regressing any of those cases.

The way "git stripspace" reads the configuration was not quite
kosher, in that the code forgot to probe for a possibly existing
repository (note: stripspace is designed to be usable outside the

".git/config" unless the repository discovery process is done, so
that .git/config is never read even when run from the top-level,

We lengthened the time the leftover process sleeps in the previous
commit to make sure it will be there while 'git merge' runs and
finishes. It therefore needs to be killed before leaving the test.
And it needs to be killed even when 'git merge' fails, so it has to
be triggered via test_when_finished mechanism.

test_when_finished to immediately before 'git merge' invocation,
where the process is spawned.

In the case of GIT_ALTERNATE_OBJECT_DIRECTORIES, bash on Windows
assembles a Unix-style path list with the colon as separators. It

This is because "command" is an enum that may only have two
values (0 and 1) and the array in question has two elements.
As it turns out, clang is actually wrong here, at least
according to its own bug tracker:
https://llvm.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=16154
But it's still worth working around this, as the warning is
present with -Wall, meaning we fail compilation with "make

Casting the enum to size_t sufficiently unconfuses clang. As
a bonus, it also catches any possible out-of-bounds access
if the enum takes on a negative value (which shouldn't
happen either, but again, this is a defensive check).

alternates: re-allow relative paths from environment
Commit 670c359da (link_alt_odb_entry: handle normalize_path
errors, 2016-10-03) regressed the handling of relative paths
in the GIT_ALTERNATE_OBJECT_DIRECTORIES variable. It's not
entirely clear this was ever meant to work, but it _has_
worked for several years, so this commit restores the
original behavior.
When we get a path in GIT_ALTERNATE_OBJECT_DIRECTORIES, we
add it the path to the list of alternate object directories
as if it were found in objects/info/alternates, but with one
difference: we do not provide the link_alt_odb_entry()
function with a base for relative paths. That function
doesn't turn it into an absolute path, and we end up feeding
the relative path to the strbuf_normalize_path() function.
Most relative paths break out of the top-level directory
(e.g., "../foo.git/objects"), and thus normalizing fails.
Prior to 670c359da, we simply ignored the error, and due to
the way normalize_path_copy() was implemented it happened to
return the original path in this case. We then accessed the
alternate objects using this relative path.
By storing the relative path in the alt_odb list, the path
is relative to wherever we happen to be at the time we do an
object lookup. That means we look from $GIT_DIR in a bare
repository, and from the top of the worktree in a non-bare
repository.
If this were being designed from scratch, it would make
sense to pick a stable location (probably $GIT_DIR, or even
the object directory) and use that as the relative base,
turning the result into an absolute path. However, given
the history, at this point the minimal fix is to match the
pre-670c359da behavior.
We can do this simply by ignoring the error when we have no
relative base and using the original value (which we now
reliably have, thanks to strbuf_normalize_path()).
That still leaves us with a relative path that foils our
duplicate detection, and may act strangely if we ever
chdir() later in the process. We could solve that by storing
an absolute path based on getcwd(). That may be a good
future direction; for now we'll do just the minimum to fix
the regression.
The new t5615 script demonstrates the fix in its final three
tests. Since we didn't have any tests of the alternates
environment variable at all, it also adds some tests of
absolute paths.

The rot13-filter.pl script calls methods on implicitly
defined filehandles (STDOUT, and the result of an open()
call). Prior to perl 5.13, these methods are not
automatically loaded, and perl will complain with:
Can't locate object method "flush" via package "IO::Handle"
Let's explicitly load IO::File (which inherits from
IO::Handle). That's more than we need for just "flush", but
matches what perl has done since:
The rot13-filter.pl script hardcodes "#!/usr/bin/perl", and
does not respect $PERL_PATH at all. That is a problem if the
system does not have perl at that path, or if it has a perl
that is too old to run a complicated script like the
rot13-filter (but PERL_PATH points to a more modern one).
We can fix this by using write_script() to create a new copy
of the script with the correct #!-line. In theory we could
move the whole script inside t0021-conversion.sh rather than
having it as an auxiliary file, but it's long enough that
it just makes things harder to read.
As a bonus, we can stop using the full path to the script in
the filter-process config we add (because the trash
directory is in our PATH). Not only is this shorter, but it
sidesteps any shell-quoting issues. The original was broken
when $TEST_DIRECTORY contained a space, because it was
interpolated in the outer script.

major one when we switch rot13-filter.pl to a script in the
same directory, as it means we will not have to deal with
