revisions.txt: escape "..." to avoid asciidoc horizontal ellipsis
In asciidoc's HTML output of the "gitrevisions" and "git-rev-parse"
documentation, the header:
The ... (three-dot) Symmetric Difference Notation
is rendered using "&8230;", a horizontal ellipsis. This is visually
ugly, but also hard to search for or cut-and-paste. We really mean three
ascii dots (0x2e) here, so let's make sure it renders as such.
The simplest way to do that is just escaping the leading dot, as the
instances in the rest of the section do. Arguably this should all be
converted to use backticks, which would let us drop the quoting here and
elsewhere (e.g., {carat}). But that does change the rendering slightly.
So let's fix the bug first, and we can decide on migrating the whole
section separately.
Note that this produces an empty doc-diff of the manpages. Curiously,
asciidoc produces the same ellipsis entity in the XML file, but docbook
then converts it back into three literal dots for the roff output! So
the roff manpages have been correct all along (which may be a reason
nobody noticed this until now).

bug_fl(): correctly initialize trace2 va_list
The code added 0cc05b044f (usage.c: add a non-fatal bug() function to go
with BUG(), 2022-06-02) sets up two va_list variables: one to output to
stderr, and one to trace2. But the order of initialization is wrong:
We copy the contents of "ap" into "cp" before it is initialized, meaning
it is full of garbage. The two should be swapped.
However, there's another bug, noticed by Johannes Schindelin: we forget
to call va_end() for the copy. So instead of just fixing the copy's
initialization, let's do two separate start/end pairs. This is allowed
by the standard, and we don't need to use copy here since we have access
to the original varargs. Matching the pairs with the calls makes it more
obvious that everything is being done correctly.
Note that we do call bug_fl() in the tests, but it didn't trigger this
problem because our format string doesn't have any placeholders. So even
though we were passing a garbage va_list through the stack, nobody ever
needed to look at it. We can easily adjust one of the trace2 tests to
trigger this, both for bug() and for BUG(). The latter isn't broken, but
it's nice to exercise both a bit more. Without the fix in this patch
(but with the test change), the bug() case causes a segfault.

is_promisor_object(): walk promisor packs in pack-order
When we generate the list of promisor objects, we walk every pack with a
.promisor file and examine its objects for any links to other objects.
By default, for_each_packed_object() will go in pack .idx order.
This is the worst case with respect to our delta base cache. If we have
a delta chain of A->B->C->D, then visiting A may require reconstructing
both B and C, unless we also visited B recently, in which case we may
have cached its value. Because .idx order is based on sha1, it's random
with respect to the actual object contents and deltas, and thus we're
unlikely to get many cache hits.
If we instead traverse in pack order, then we get the optimal case:
packs are written to keep delta families together, and to place bases
before their children.
Even on a modest repository like git.git, this has a noticeable speedup
on p5600.4, which runs "fsck" on a partial clone with blob:none (so lots
of trees which need to be walked, and which delta well):
Test HEAD^ HEAD
-------------------------------------------------------
5600.4: 17.87(17.83+0.04) 15.42(15.35+0.06) -13.7%
On a larger repository like linux.git, the speedup is even more
pronounced:
Test HEAD^ HEAD
-----------------------------------------------------------
5600.4: 322.47(322.01+0.42) 186.41(185.76+0.63) -42.2%
Any other operations that call is_promisor_object(), like "rev-list
--exclude-promisor-objects", would similarly benefit, but the
invocations in p5600 don't actually trigger any such cases.
Note that we may pay a small price to build a rev-index in-memory to do
the pack-order traversal. But it's still a big net win, and even that
small cost goes away if you are using pack.writeReverseIndex.

transfer doc: move fetch.credentialsInUrl to "transfer" config namespace
Rename the "fetch.credentialsInUrl" configuration variable introduced
in 6dcbdc0d661 (remote: create fetch.credentialsInUrl config,
2022-06-06) to "transfer".
There are existing exceptions, but generally speaking the
"<namespace>.<var>" configuration should only apply to command
described in the "namespace" (and its sub-commands, so e.g. "clone.*"
or "fetch.*" might also configure "git-remote-https").
But in the case of "fetch.credentialsInUrl" we've got a configuration
variable that configures the behavior of all of "clone", "push" and
"fetch", someone adjusting "fetch.*" configuration won't expect to
have the behavior of "git push" altered, especially as we have the
pre-existing "{transfer,fetch,receive}.fsckObjects", which configures
different parts of the transfer dialog.
So let's move this configuration variable to the "transfer" namespace
before it's exposed in a release. We could add all of
"{transfer,fetch,pull}.credentialsInUrl" at some other time, but once
we have "fetch" configure "pull" such an arrangement would would be a
confusing mess, as we'd at least need to have "fetch" configure
"push" (but not the other way around), or change existing behavior.

Amend the documentation and release notes entry for the

detect passwords in `remote.<name>.pushurl` configuration. We
shouldn't lull users into a false sense of security, so we need to
mention that prominently.
This also elaborates and clarifies the "exposes the password in
multiple ways" part of the documentation. As noted in [1] a user
unfamiliar with git's implementation won't know what to make of that
scary claim, e.g. git hypothetically have novel git-specific ways of
exposing configured credentials.
The reality is that this configuration is intended as an aid for users
who can't fully trust their OS's or system's security model, so lets
say that's what this is intended for, and mention the most common ways
passwords stored in configuration might inadvertently get exposed.
add -i tests: mark "TODO" depending on GIT_TEST_ADD_I_USE_BUILTIN
Fix an issue that existed before 0527ccb1b55 (add -i: default to the
built-in implementation, 2021-11-30), but which became the default
with that change, we should not be marking tests that are known to
pass as "TODO" tests.
When GIT_TEST_ADD_I_USE_BUILTIN=1 was made the default we started
passing the tests added in 0f0fba2cc87 (t3701: add a test for advanced
split-hunk editing, 2019-12-06) and 1bf01040f0c (add -p: demonstrate

Thus we've been emitting this sort of output:
$ prove ./t3701-add-interactive.sh

All tests successful.
Which isn't just cosmetic, but due to issues with
test_expect_failure (see [1]) we could e.g. be hiding something as bad
as a segfault in the new implementation. It makes sense catch that,
especially before we put out a release with the built-in "add -i", so

diff-index.txt: update raw output format in examples
The two examples in the doc for 'git diff-index' were not updated when
the raw output format was changed in 81e50eabf0 ([PATCH] The diff-raw
format updates., 2005-05-21) (first example) and in b6d8f309d9 ([PATCH]
diff-raw format update take #2., 2005-05-23) and 7cb6ac1e4b (diff:
diff_aligned_abbrev: remove ellipsis after abbreviated SHA-1 value,
2017-12-03) (second example).
Update the output, inventing some characters to complete the source
hash in the second example. Also correct the destination mode in the
second example, which was wrongly '100664' since the addition of the
example in c64b9b8860 (Reference documentation for the core git
commands., 2005-05-05).

diff-format.txt: correct misleading wording
Near the end of the "Raw output format" section, an example shows the
output of 'git diff-files' for a tracked file modified on disk but not
yet added to the index. However the wording is:
<sha1> is shown as all 0's if a file is new on the filesystem
and it is out of sync with the index.
which is confusing since it can be understood to mean that 'file' is a
new, yet untracked file, in which case 'git diff-files' does not care
about it at all.
When this example was introduced all the way back in c64b9b8860
(Reference documentation for the core git commands., 2005-05-05), 'old'
and 'new' referred to the two entities being compared, depending on the
command being used (diff-index, diff-tree or diff-files - which at the
time were diff-cache, diff-tree and show-diff). The wording used at the
time was:
<new-sha1> is shown as all 0's if new is a file on the
filesystem and it is out of sync with the cache.
This section was reworked in 81e50eabf0 ([PATCH] The diff-raw
format updates., 2005-05-21) and the mention of the meaning of 'new' and
'old' was removed. Then in f73ae1fc5d (Some typos and light editing of
various manpages, 2005-10-05), the wording was changed to what it is
now.
In addition, in b6d8f309d9 ([PATCH] diff-raw format update take #2.,
2005-05-23), the section was further reworked and did not use '<sha1>'
anymore, making the example the sole user of this token.
Rework the introductory sentence of the example to instead refer to
'sha1 for "dst"', which is what the text description above it uses, and
fix the wording so that we do not mention a "new file".
While at it, also tweak the wording used in the description of the raw
format to explicitely state that all 0's are used for the destination
hash if the working tree is out of sync with the index, instead of the
more vague "look at worktree".

diff-format.txt: dst can be 0* SHA-1 when path is deleted, too
"dst" can legitimately be "0\{40\}" for a creation patch, e.g. when
the stat information is stale, but it falls into "look at work tree"
case. The original description in b6d8f309 ([PATCH] diff-raw format
update take #2., 2005-05-23) forgot that deletion also makes the
"dst" 0* SHA-1.

When GCC produces those helpful errors, we will want to present them in
the GitHub workflow runs in the most helpful manner. To that end, we
want to use workflow commands to render errors and warnings:
https://docs.github.com/en/actions/using-workflows/workflow-commands-for-github-actions
In the previous commit, we ensured that grouping is used for the build
in all jobs, and this allows us to piggy-back onto the `group` function
to transmogrify the output.
Note: If `set -o pipefail` was available, we could do this in a little
more elegant way. But since some of the steps are run using `dash`, we
have to do a little `{ ...; echo $? >exit.status; } | ...` dance.
