imap-send: add ability to list the available folders
Various IMAP servers have different ways to name common folders.
For example, the folder where all deleted messages are stored is often
named "[Gmail]/Trash" on Gmail servers, and "Deleted" on Outlook.
Similarly, the Drafts folder is simply named "Drafts" on Outlook, but
on Gmail it is named "[Gmail]/Drafts".
This commit adds a `--list` command to the `imap-send` tool that lists
the available folders on the IMAP server, allowing users to see
which folders are available and how they are named. A sample output
looks like this when run against a Gmail server:
Fetching the list of available folders...
* LIST (\HasNoChildren) "/" "INBOX"
* LIST (\HasChildren \Noselect) "/" "[Gmail]"
* LIST (\All \HasNoChildren) "/" "[Gmail]/All Mail"
* LIST (\Drafts \HasNoChildren) "/" "[Gmail]/Drafts"
* LIST (\HasNoChildren \Important) "/" "[Gmail]/Important"
* LIST (\HasNoChildren \Sent) "/" "[Gmail]/Sent Mail"
* LIST (\HasNoChildren \Junk) "/" "[Gmail]/Spam"
* LIST (\Flagged \HasNoChildren) "/" "[Gmail]/Starred"
* LIST (\HasNoChildren \Trash) "/" "[Gmail]/Trash"

cat-file: fix mailmap application for different author and committer
The git cat-file command with --mailmap option fails to apply mailmap
transformations to the committer field when the author and committer
identities are different. This occurs due to a missing newline handling
in apply_mailmap_to_header() after processing each identity line.
When rewrite_ident_line() processes an identity, it stops at the end
of the identity data (e.g., "Author Name <email> timestamp"), but
doesn't account for the trailing newline. The current code adds the
identity length to buf_offset but fails to advance past the newline
character. This causes the next iteration to start parsing from the
newline instead of the beginning of the next header line, making it
impossible to match subsequent headers like "committer".
Additionally, rewrite_ident_line() may reallocate the buffer during
its operation. Any code using pointers into the old buffer would be
using invalid memory after such a reallocation.
This bug was introduced in e9c1b0e3 (revision: improve
commit_rewrite_person(), 2022-07-19) when the much simpler version of
commit_rewrite_person() that worked on one "person header" at a time
was rewritten to use the current apply_mailmap_to_header() function.
The original implementation processed author and committer separately,
but the rewrite introduced this loop-based approach that failed to
properly handle the transition between identity lines.
Let's fix this by addressing both issues:
1. After processing an identity line, we now check if we're at a
newline and advance past it, ensuring the next header line is
parsed correctly.
2. We recompute the buffer position after rewrite_ident_line() to
handle potential buffer reallocation.
This ensures that all identity headers in commit and tag objects are
consistently processed regardless of whether the author and committer
are the same person.

builtin/stash: provide a way to import stashes from a ref
Now that we have a way to export stashes to a ref, let's provide a way
to import them from such a ref back to the stash. This works much the
way the export code does, except that we strip off the first parent
chain commit and then store each resulting commit back to the stash.
We don't clear the stash first and instead add the specified stashes to
the top of the stash. This is because users may want to export just a
few stashes, such as to share a small amount of work in progress with a
colleague, and it would be undesirable for the receiving user to lose
all of their data. For users who do want to replace the stash, it's
easy to do to: simply run "git stash clear" first.
We specifically rely on the fact that we'll produce identical stash
commits on both sides in our tests. This provides a cheap,
straightforward check for our tests and also makes it easy for users to
see if they already have the same data in both repositories.

builtin/stash: provide a way to export stashes to a ref
A common user problem is how to sync in-progress work to another
machine. Users currently must use some sort of transfer of the working
tree, which poses security risks and also necessarily causes the index
to become dirty. The experience is suboptimal and frustrating for
users.
A reasonable idea is to use the stash for this purpose, but the stash is
stored in the reflog, not in a ref, and as such it cannot be pushed or
pulled. This also means that it cannot be saved into a bundle or
preserved elsewhere, which is a problem when using throwaway development
environments.
In addition, users often want to replicate stashes across machines, such
as when they must use multiple machines or when they use throwaway dev
environments, such as those based on the Devcontainer spec, where they
might otherwise lose various in-progress work.
Let's solve this problem by allowing the user to export the stash to a
ref (or, to just write it into the repository and print the hash, à la
git commit-tree). Introduce git stash export, which writes a chain of
commits where the first parent is always a chain to the previous stash,
or to a single, empty commit (for the final item) and the second is the
stash commit normally written to the reflog.
Iterate over each stash from top to bottom, looking up the data for each
one, and then create the chain from the single empty commit back up in
reverse order. Generate a predictable empty commit so our behavior is
reproducible. Create a useful commit message, preserving the author and
committer information, to help users identify stash commits when viewing
them as normal commits.
If the user has specified specific stashes they'd like to export
instead, use those instead of iterating over all of the stashes.
As part of this, specifically request quiet behavior when looking up the
OID for a revision because we will eventually hit a revision that
doesn't exist and we don't want to die when that occurs.
When exporting stashes, be sure to verify that they look like valid
stashes and don't contain invalid data. This will help avoid failures
on import or problems due to attempting to export invalid refs that are
not stashes.

When I added the Coverity workflow in a56b6230d0b1 (ci: add a GitHub
workflow to submit Coverity scans, 2023-09-25), I merely converted an
Azure Pipeline definition that had been running successfully for ages.
In the meantime, the current Coverity documentation describes a very
different way to install the analysis tool, recommending to add the
`bin/` directory to the _end_ of `PATH` (when originally, IIRC, it was
recommended to add it to the _beginning_ of the `PATH`).
This is crucial! The reason is that the current incarnation of the
Windows variant of Coverity's analysis tools come with a _lot_ of DLL
files in their `bin/` directory, some of them interferring rather badly
with the `gcc.exe` in Git for Windows' SDK that we use to run the
Coverity build. The symptom is a cryptic error message:

The log (which the workflow is currently not configured to reveal) then
points out that the `windows.h` header cannot be found, which is _still_
not very helpful. The underlying root cause is that the `gcc.exe` in Git
for Windows' SDK determines the location of the header files via the
location of certain DLL files, and finding the "wrong" ones first on the
`PATH` misleads that logic.
Let's fix this problem by following Coverity's current recommendation
and append the `bin/` directory in which `cov-int` can be found to the

environment: remove the global variable 'core_preload_index'
The global variable 'core_preload_index' is used in a single function
named 'preload_index()' in "preload-index.c". Move its declaration inside
that function, removing unnecessary global state.
This change is part of an ongoing effort to eliminate global variables,
improve modularity and help libify the codebase.

revision: fix memory leak in prepare_show_merge()
In revision.c:prepare_show_merge(), we allocated an array in prune
but forget to free it. Since parse_pathspec is not responsible to
free prune, we should add `free(prune)` in the end of prepare_show_merge().

test-lib: add missing prerequisites for Darwin
commit d3d8c601fd ("t7815: fix unexpectedly passing test on macOS",
2025-06-02) added a MACOS prerequisite by adding a 'Darwin' case
label to the 'OS-specific' case statement. However, this commit
forgot to set several prerequisites which appear in the 'default'
case label, in addition to the new MACOS prerequisite. This causes
several tests, which macOS should pass, being skipped.
In order to run all applicable tests on macOS, add the missing
prerequisites to the 'Darwin' case.

pack-bitmap: remove checks before bitmap_free
In pack-bitmap.c:find_boundary_objects(), the roots_bitmap is only freed
if cascade_pseudo_merges_1() fails. However, cascade_pseudo_merges_1()
uses roots_bitmap as a mutable reference without taking ownership of it.
As a result, if cascade_pseudo_merges_1() succeeds, roots_bitmap is leaked.
And this leak currently lacks a dedicated test to detect it.
To fix this leak, remove if cascade_pseudo_merges_1() succeed check and
always calling bitmap_free(roots_bitmap);
To trigger this leak, we need roots_bitmap that contains at least one
pseudo merge. So that we can use pseudo merge bitmap when we compute roots
reachable bitmap. Here we create two commits: first A then B. Add A
to the pseudo-merge and perform a traversal over the range A..B.
In this scenario, the "haves" set will be {A}, and cascade_pseudo_merges_1
will succeed, thereby exposing the leak due to the missing roots_bitmap
cleanup.

builtin/submodule--helper: fix leak when remote_submodule_branch() failed
In builtin/submodule--helper.c:update_submodule(), the variable
remote_name is allocated in get_default_remote_submodule() but
may be leaked if remote_submodule_branch() fails. Although it is
unlikely that remote_submodule_branch() would fail after successfully
obtaining a remote ref name from get_default_remote_submodule(),
it is still possible. To prevent a potential memory leak, add a
call to free(remote_name) at the early exit point.
