ci: fix GCC install in the Travis CI GCC OSX job
A few days ago Travis CI updated their existing OSX images, including
the Homebrew database in the xcode10.1 OSX image that we use. Since
then installing dependencies in the 'osx-gcc' job fails when it tries
to link gcc@8:
+ brew link gcc@8
Error: No such keg: /usr/local/Cellar/gcc@8
GCC8 is still installed but not linked to '/usr/local' in the updated
image, as it was before this update, but now we have to link it by
running 'brew link gcc'. So let's do that then, and fall back to
linking gcc@8 if it doesn't, just to be sure.
Our builds on Azure Pipelines are unaffected by this issue. The OSX
image over there doesn't contain the gcc@8 package, so we have to
'brew install' it, which already takes care of linking it to
'/usr/local'. After that the 'brew link gcc' command added by this
patch fails, but the ||-chained fallback 'brew link gcc@8' command
succeeds with an "already linked" warning.

add a Code of Conduct document
We've never had a formally written Code of Conduct document. Though it
has been discussed off and on over the years, for the most part the
behavior on the mailing list has been good enough that nobody felt the
need to push one forward.
However, even if there aren't specific problems now, it's a good idea to
have a document:
- it puts everybody on the same page with respect to expectations.
This might avoid poor behavior, but also makes it easier to handle
it if it does happen.
- it publicly advertises that good conduct is important to us and will
be enforced, which may make some people more comfortable with
joining our community
- it may be a good time to cement our expectations when things are
quiet, since it gives everybody some distance rather than focusing
on a current contentious issue
This patch adapts the Contributor Covenant Code of Conduct. As opposed
to writing our own from scratch, this uses common and well-accepted
language, and strikes a good balance between illustrating expectations
and avoiding a laundry list of behaviors. It's also the same document
used by the Git for Windows project.
I also stole a very nice introductory paragraph from the Git for Windows
version of the file.
There are a few subtle points, though:
- the document refers to "the project maintainers". For the code, we
generally only consider there to be one maintainer: Junio C Hamano.
But for dealing with community issues, it makes sense to involve
more people to spread the responsibility. I've listed the project
committee address of git@sfconservancy.org as the contact point.
- the document mentions banning from the community, both in the intro
paragraph and in "Our Responsibilities". The exact mechanism here is
left vague. I can imagine it might start with social enforcement
(not accepting patches, ignoring emails) and could escalate to
technical measures if necessary (asking vger admins to block an
address). It probably make sense _not_ to get too specific at this
point, and deal with specifics as they come up.

send-pack: never fetch when checking exclusions
When building the packfile to be sent, send_pack() is given a list of
remote refs to be used as exclusions. For each ref, it first checks if
the ref exists locally, and if it does, passes it with a "^" prefix to
pack-objects. However, in a partial clone, the check may trigger a lazy
fetch.
The additional commit ancestry information obtained during such fetches
may show that certain objects that would have been sent are already
known to the server, resulting in a smaller pack being sent. But this is
at the cost of fetching from many possibly unrelated refs, and the lazy
fetches do not help at all in the typical case where the client is
up-to-date with the upstream of the branch being pushed.

merge-recursive: fix the fix to the diff3 common ancestor label
In commit 8e4ec337 ("merge-recursive: fix the diff3 common ancestor
label for virtual commits", 2019-10-01), which was a fix to commit 743474cbfa8b ("merge-recursive: provide a better label for diff3
common ancestor", 2019-08-17), the label for the common ancestor was
changed from always being
"merged common ancestors"
to instead be based on the number of merge bases and whether the merge
base was a real commit or a virtual one:
>=2: "merged common ancestors"
1, via merge_recursive_generic: "constructed merge base"
1, otherwise: <abbreviated commit hash>
0: "<empty tree>"
The handling for "constructed merge base" worked by allowing
opt->ancestor to be set in merge_recursive_generic(), so we paid
attention to the setting of that variable in merge_recursive_internal().
Now, for the outer merge, the code flow was simply the following:
ancestor_name = "merged merge bases"
loop over merge_bases: merge_recursive_internal()
The first merge base not needing recursion would determine its own
ancestor_name however necessary and thus run
Now, the next set of merge_bases that would need to be merged after this
particular merge had completed would note that opt->ancestor has been
set to something (to a local ancestor_name variable that has since been
popped off the stack), and thus it would run:
... else if (opt->ancestor) {
ancestor_name = opt->ancestor; /* OOPS! */
loop over merge_bases: merge_recursive_internal()
opt->ancestor = ancestor_name
merge_trees_internal()
This resulted in garbage strings being printed for the virtual merge
bases, which was visible in git.git by just merging commit b744c3af07
into commit 6d8cb22a4f. There are two ways to fix this: set
opt->ancestor to NULL after using it to avoid re-use, or add a
!opt->priv->call_depth check to the if block for using a pre-defined
opt->ancestor. Apply both fixes.

This allows us to simplify usage of hashmap iterator macros
by not having to specify a type when a pointer of that type

In the future, list iterator macros (e.g. list_for_each_entry)

Unfortunately, `__typeof__' is not portable C, so we need an
extra parameter to specify the type.

introduce container_of macro
This macro is popular within the Linux kernel for supporting
intrusive data structures such as linked lists, red-black trees,
and chained hash tables while allowing the compiler to do
type checking.
Later patches will use container_of() to remove the limitation
of "hashmap_entry" being location-dependent. This will complete
the transition to compile-time type checking for the hashmap API.
This macro already exists in our source as "list_entry" in
list.h and making "list_entry" an alias to "container_of"
as the Linux kernel has done is a possibility.
