protocol.h: move definition of DEFAULT_GIT_PORT from cache.h
Michael J Gruber noticed that connection via the git:// protocol no
longer worked after a recent header clean-up. This was caused by
funny interaction of few gotchas. First, a necessary definition
#define DEFAULT_GIT_PORT 9418
was made invisible to a place where
const char *port = STR(DEFAULT_GIT_PORT);
was expecting to turn the integer into "9418" with a clever STR()
macro, and ended up stringifying it to
const char *port = "DEFAULT_GIT_PORT";
without giving any chance to compilers to notice such a mistake.

mailmap, quote: move declarations of global vars to correct unit
Since earlier commits removed the inclusion of cache.h from mailmap.c
and quote.c, it feels odd to have the extern declarations of
global variables in cache.h rather than the actual header included
by the source file. Move these global variable extern declarations
from cache.h to mailmap.c and quote.c.

treewide: reduce includes of cache.h in other headers
We had a handful of headers including cache.h that didn't need to
anymore. Drop those includes and replace them with includes of
smaller files, or forward declarations. However, note that two .c
files now need to directly include cache.h, though they should have
been including it all along given they are directly using structs
defined in it.

treewide: remove double forward declaration of read_in_full
cache.h's nature of a dumping ground of includes prevented it from
being included in some compat/ files, forcing us into a workaround
of having a double forward declaration of the read_in_full() function
(see commit 14086b0a13 ("compat/pread.c: Add a forward declaration to
fix a warning", 2007-11-17)). Now that we have moved functions like
read_in_full() from cache.h to wrapper.h, and wrapper.h isn't littered
with unrelated and scary #defines, get rid of the extra forward
declaration and just have compat/pread.c include wrapper.h.

As can easily be seen from grepping in our sources, we had these uses

argument. Let's use that argument instead.
Out of these changes only the changes to "cache-tree.c",
"commit-reach.c", "shallow.c" and "upload-pack.c" would have cleanly
applied before the migration away from the "repo_*()" wrapper macros
in the preceding commits.
The rest aren't new, as we'd previously implicitly refer to
"the_repository", but it's now more obvious that we were doing the
wrong thing all along, and should have used the parameter instead.
The change to change "get_index_format_default(the_repository)" in
"read-cache.c" to use the "r" variable instead should arguably have
been part of [1], or in the subsequent cleanup in [2]. Let's do it
here, as can be seen from the initial code in [3] it's not important
that we use "the_repository" there, but would prefer to always use the
current repository.
This change excludes the "the_repository" use in "upload-pack.c"'s
upload_pack_advertise(), as the in-flight [4] makes that change.

Once we've fully applied "the_repository.pending.cocci" we'll keep
this rules around for a while in "the_repository.cocci", to help any
outstanding topics and out-of-tree code to resolve textual or semantic
conflicts with these changes, but eventually we'll remove the
"the_repository.cocci" as a follow-up.
So even if some of these functions are subsequently moved and/or split

When these rules started being added in [1] they didn't use a ";"
after the ")", and would thus catch uses of these macros within

they'd only match a subset of the users of these macros.
Rather than narrowly fixing that, let's have these use the much less
verbose pattern introduced in my recent [3]: There's no need to
exhaustively enumerate arguments if we use the "..." syntax. This
means that we can fold all of these different rules into one.

object-file: reprepare alternates when necessary
When an object is not found in a repository's object store, we sometimes
call reprepare_packed_git() to see if the object was temporarily moved
into a new pack-file (and its old pack-file or loose object was
deleted). This process does a scan of each pack directory within each
odb, but does not reevaluate if the odb list needs updating.
Extend reprepare_packed_git() to also reprepare the alternate odb list
by setting loaded_alternates to zero and calling prepare_alt_odb(). This
will add newly-discoverd odbs to the linked list, but will not duplicate
existing ones nor will it remove existing ones that are no longer listed
in the alternates file. Do this under the object read lock to avoid
readers from interacting with a potentially incomplete odb being added
to the odb list.
If the alternates file was edited to _remove_ some alternates during the
course of the Git process, Git will continue to see alternates that were
ever valid for that repository. ODBs are not removed from the list, the
same as the existing behavior before this change. Git already has
protections against an alternate directory disappearing from the
filesystem during the lifetime of a process, and those are still in
effect.
This change is specifically for concurrent changes to the repository, so
it is difficult to create a test that guarantees this behavior is
correct. I manually verified by introducing a reprepare_packed_git() call
into get_revision() and stepped into that call in a debugger with a
parent 'git log' process. Multiple runs of prepare_alt_odb() kept
the_repository->objects->odb as a single-item chain until I added a
.git/objects/info/alternates file in a different process. The next run
added the new odb to the chain and subsequent runs did not add to the
chain.

Making things even more confusing, you'll get that error only if the
unmerged entry is alphabetically the first changed file. Otherwise, we
simply stick the unrecognized line to the end of the previous hunk.
There it's mostly harmless, as it eventually gets fed back to "git
apply", which happily ignores it. But it's still shown to the user
attached to the hunk, which is wrong.
So let's handle these lines as a noop. There's not really anything
useful to do with a conflicted merge in this case, and that's what we do
for other cases like "add -p". There we get a "diff --cc" line, which we
accept as starting a new file, but we refuse to use any of its hunks
(their headers start with "@@@" and not "@@ ", so we silently ignore
them).
It seems like simply recognizing the line and continuing in our parsing
loop would work. But we actually need to run the rest of the loop body
to handle matching up our colored/filtered output. But that code assumes
that we have some active file_diff we're working on. So instead, we'll
just insert a dummy entry into our array. This ends up the same as if we
saw a "diff --cc" line (a file with no hunks).

sequencer.c: fix overflow & segfault in parse_strategy_opts()
The split_cmdline() function introduced in [1] returns an "int". If
it's negative it signifies an error. The option parsing in [2] didn't
account for this, and assigned the value directly to the "size_t
xopts_nr". We'd then attempt to loop over all of these elements, and
access uninitialized memory.
There's a few things that use this for option parsing, but one way to
trigger it is with a bad value to "-X <strategy-option>", e.g:
git rebase -X"bad argument\""
In another context this might be a security issue, but in this case
someone who's already able to inject arguments directly to our
commands would be past other defenses, making this potential
escalation a moot point.
As the example above & test case shows the error reporting leaves
something to be desired. The function will loop over the
whitespace-split values, but when it encounters an error we'll only
report the first element, which is OK, not the second "argument\""
whose quote is unbalanced.
This is an inherent limitation of the current API, and the issue
affects other API users. Let's not attempt to fix that now. If and
when that happens these tests will need to be adjusted to assert the
new output.

The user might not necessarily know why ff only was configured, maybe an
admin did it, or the installer (Git for Windows), or perhaps they just
followed some online advice.
This can happen not only on pull.ff=only, but merge.ff=only too.
Even worse if the user has configured pull.rebase=false and
merge.ff=only, because in those cases a diverging merge will constantly
keep failing. There's no trivial way to get out of this other than
`git merge --no-ff`.
Let's not assume our users are experts in git who completely understand
all their configurations.
