A user could run into this issue if they used 'git maintenance start' to

mergetool--lib: fix '--tool-help' to correctly show available tools
Commit 83bbf9b92e (mergetool--lib: improve support for vimdiff-style tool
variants, 2020-07-29) introduced a regression in the output of `git mergetool
--tool-help` and `git difftool --tool-help` [1].
In function 'show_tool_names' in git-mergetool--lib.sh, we loop over the
supported mergetools and their variants and accumulate them in the variable
'variants', separating them with a literal '\n'.
The code then uses 'echo $variants' to turn these '\n' into newlines, but this
behaviour is not portable, it just happens to work in some shells, like
dash(1)'s 'echo' builtin.
For shells in which 'echo' does not turn '\n' into newlines, the end
result is that the only tools that are shown are the existing variants
(except the last variant alphabetically), since the variants are
separated by actual newlines in '$variants' because of the several
'echo' calls in mergetools/{bc,vimdiff}::list_tool_variants.
Fix this bug by embedding an actual line feed into `variants` in
show_tool_names(). While at it, replace `sort | uniq` by `sort -u`.
To prevent future regressions, add a simple test that checks that a few
known tools are correctly shown (let's avoid counting the total number
of tools to lessen the maintenance burden when new tools are added or if
'--tool-help' learns additional logic, like hiding tools depending on
the current platform).

t4129: don't fail if setgid is set in the test directory
The last test of t4129 creates a directory and expects its setgid bit
(g+s) to be off. But this makes the test fail when the parent directory
has the bit set, as setgid's state is inherited by newly created
subdirectories.
One way to solve this problem is to allow the presence of this bit when
comparing the return of `test_modebits` with the expected value. But
then we may have the same problem in the future when other tests start
using `test_modebits` on directories (currently t4129 is the only one)
and forget about setgid. Instead, let's make the helper function more
robust with respect to the state of the setgid bit in the test directory
by removing this bit from the returning value. There should be no
problem with existing callers as no one currently expects this bit to be
on.
Note that the sticky bit (+t) and the setuid bit (u+s) are not
inherited, so we don't have to worry about those.

p7519: allow running without watchman prereq
p7519 measures the performance of the fsmonitor code. To do this, it
uses the installed copy of Watchman. If Watchman isn't installed, a noop
integration script is installed in its place.
When in the latter mode, it is expected that the script should not write
a "last update token": in fact, it doesn't write anything at all since
the script is blank.
Commit 33226af42b (t/perf/fsmonitor: improve error message if typoing
hook name, 2020-10-26) made sure that running 'git update-index
--fsmonitor' did not write anything to stderr, but this is not the case
when using the empty Watchman script, since Git will complain that:
$ which watchman
watchman not found
$ cat .git/hooks/fsmonitor-empty
$ git -c core.fsmonitor=.git/hooks/fsmonitor-empty update-index --fsmonitor
warning: Empty last update token.
Prior to 33226af42b, the output wasn't checked at all, which allowed
this noop mode to work. But, 33226af42b breaks p7519 when running it
without a 'watchman(1)' on your system.
Handle this by only checking that the stderr is empty only when running
with a real watchman executable. Otherwise, assert that the error
message is the expected one when running in the noop mode.

gc: fix handling of crontab magic markers
On `git maintenance start`, we add a few entries to the user's cron
table. We wrap our entries using two magic markers, "# BEGIN GIT
MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE" and "# END GIT MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE". At a later
`git maintenance stop`, we will go through the table and remove these
lines. Or rather, we will remove the "BEGIN" marker, the "END" marker
and everything between them.
Alas, we have a bug in how we detect the "END" marker: we don't. As we
loop through all the lines of the crontab, if we are in the "old
region", i.e., the region we're aiming to remove, we make an early
`continue` and don't get as far as checking for the "END" marker. Thus,
once we've seen our "BEGIN", we remove everything until the end of the
file.
Rewrite the logic for identifying these markers. There are four cases
that are mutually exclusive: The current line starts a region or it ends
it, or it's firmly within the region, or it's outside of it (and should
be printed).

t/perf: fix test_export() failure with BSD `sed`
test_perf() runs each test in its own subshell which makes it difficult
to persist variables between tests. test_export() addresses this
shortcoming by grabbing the values of specified variables after a test
runs but before the subshell exits, and writes those values to a file
which is loaded into the environment of subsequent tests.
To grab the values to be persisted, test_export() pipes the output of
the shell's builtin `set` command through `sed` which plucks them out
using a regular expression along the lines of `s/^(var1|var2)/.../p`.
Unfortunately, though, this use of alternation is not portable. For
instance, BSD-lineage `sed` (including macOS `sed`) does not support it
in the default "basic regular expression" mode (BRE). It may be possible
to enable "extended regular expression" mode (ERE) in some cases with
`sed -E`, however, `-E` is neither portable nor part of POSIX.
Fortunately, alternation is unnecessary in this case and can easily be
avoided, so replace it with a series of simple expressions such as
`s/^var1/.../p;s/^var2/.../p`.
While at it, tighten the expressions so they match the variable names
exactly rather than matching prefixes (i.e. use `s/^var1=/.../p`).
If the requirements of test_export() become more complex in the future,
then an alternative would be to replace `sed` with `perl` which supports
alternation on all platforms, however, the simple elimination of
alternation via multiple `sed` expressions suffices for the present.

Remove this unreachable code. It was found by SunCC, it's found by a
non-fatal warning emitted by SunCC. It's one of the things it's more
vehement about than GCC & Clang.
It complains about a lot of other similarly unreachable code, e.g. a
BUG(...) without a "return", and a "return 0" after a long if/else,
both of whom have "return" statements. Those are also genuine
redundancies to a compiler, but arguably make the code a bit easier to
read & less fragile to maintain.
These return/break cases are just unnecessary however, and as seen
here the surrounding code just did a plain "return" without a "break"
already.
