When applying multiple patches with git am, or when rebasing using the
am backend, it's possible that one of our patches has updated a
gitattributes file. Currently, we cache this information, so if a
file in a subsequent patch has attributes applied, the file will be
written out with the attributes in place as of the time we started the
rebase or am operation, not with the attributes applied by the previous
patch. This problem does not occur when using the -m or -i flags to
rebase.
To ensure we write the correct data into the working tree, expire the
cache after each patch that touches a path ending in ".gitattributes".
Since we load these attributes in multiple separate files, we must
expire them accordingly.

t0021: make sure clean filter runs
In t0021.15 one of the things we are checking is that the clean filter
is run when checking out empty-branch. The clean filter needs to be
run to make sure there are no modifications on the file system for the
test.r file, and thus it isn't dangerous to overwrite it.
However in the current test setup it is not always necessary to run
the clean filter, and thus the test sometimes fails, as debug.log
isn't written.
This happens when test.r has an older mtime than the index itself.
That mtime is also recorded as stat data for test.r in the index, and
based on the heuristic we're using for index entries, git correctly
assumes this file is up-to-date.
Usually this test succeeds because the mtime of test.r is the same as
the mtime of the index. In this case test.r is racily clean, so git
actually checks the contents, for which the clean filter is run.
Fix the test by updating the mtime of test.r, so git is forced to
check the contents of the file, and the clean filter is run as the
test expects.

magnitude. This affects paths and link targets a bit shorter than 1000,

worktree remove: clarify error message on dirty worktree
To avoid data loss, 'git worktree remove' refuses to delete a worktree
if it's dirty or contains untracked files. However, the error message
only mentions that the worktree "is dirty", even if the worktree in
question is in fact clean, but contains untracked files:
$ git worktree add test-worktree
Preparing worktree (new branch 'test-worktree')
HEAD is now at aa53e60 Initial
$ >test-worktree/untracked-file
$ git worktree remove test-worktree/
fatal: 'test-worktree/' is dirty, use --force to delete it
$ git -C test-worktree/ diff
$ git -C test-worktree/ diff --cached
$ # Huh? Where are those dirty files?!
Clarify this error message to say that the worktree "contains modified
or untracked files".

packfile: drop release_pack_memory()
Long ago, in 97bfeb34df (Release pack windows before reporting out of
memory., 2006-12-24), we taught xmalloc() and friends to try unmapping
pack windows when malloc() failed. It's unlikely that his helps a lot in
practice, and it has some downsides. First, the downsides:
1. It makes xmalloc() not thread-safe. We've worked around this in
pack-objects.c, which installs its own locking version of the
try_to_free_routine(). But other threaded code doesn't.
2. It makes the system as a whole harder to reason about. Functions
which allocate heap memory under the hood may have farther-reaching
effects than expected.
That might be worth the tradeoff if there's a benefit. But in practice,
it seems unlikely. We're generally dealing with mmap'd files, so the OS
is going to do a much better job at responding to memory pressure by
dropping individual pages (the exception is systems with NO_MMAP, but
even there the OS can probably respond just as well with swapping).
So the only thing we're really freeing is address space. On 64-bit
systems, we have plenty of that to go around. On 32-bit systems, it
could possibly help. But around the same time we made two other changes: 77ccc5bbd1 (Introduce new config option for mmap limit., 2006-12-23) and 60bb8b1453 (Fully activate the sliding window pack access., 2006-12-23).
Together that means that a 32-bit system should have no more than 256MB
total of packed-git mmaps at one time, split between a few 32MB windows.
It's unlikely we have any address space problems since then, but we
don't have any data since the features were all added at the same time.
Likewise, xmmap() will try to free memory. At first glance, it seems
like we'd need this (when we try to mmap a new window, we might need to
close an old one to save address space on a 32-bit system). But we're
saved again by core.packedGitLimit: if we're going to exceed our 256MB
limit, we'll close an existing window before we even call mmap().
So it seems unlikely that this feature is actually doing anything
useful. And while we don't have reports of it harming anything (probably
because it rarely if ever kicks in), it would be nice to simplify the
system overall. This patch drops the whole try_to_free system from
xmalloc(), as well as the manual pack memory release in xmmap().

git-fast-import.txt: clarify that multiple merge commits are allowed
The grammar for commits used a '?' rather than a '*' on the `merge`
directive line, despite the fact that the code allows multiple `merge`
directives in order to support n-way merges. In fact, elsewhere in
git-fast-import.txt there is an explicit declaration that "an unlimited
number of `merge` commands per commit are permitted by fast-import".
Fix the grammar to match the intent and implementation.

t/perf: rename duplicate-numbered test script
There are two perf scripts numbered p5600, but with otherwise different
names ("clone-reference" versus "partial-clone"). We store timing
results in files named after the whole script, so internally we don't
get confused between the two. But "aggregate.perl" just prints the test
number for each result, giving multiple entries for "5600.3". It also
makes it impossible to skip one test but not the other with
GIT_SKIP_TESTS.
Let's renumber the one that appeared later (by date -- the source of the
problem is that the two were developed on independent branches). For the
non-perf test suite, our test-lint rule would have complained about this
when the two were merged, but t/perf never learned that trick.

doc: fix repeated words
Inspired by 21416f0a07 ("restore: fix typo in docs", 2019-08-03), I ran
"git grep -E '(\b[a-zA-Z]+) \1\b' -- Documentation/" to find other cases
where words were duplicated, e.g. "the the", and in most cases removed
one of the repeated words.
There were many false positives by this grep command, including
deliberate repeated words like "really really" or valid uses of "that
that" which I left alone, of course.
I also did not correct any of the legitimate, accidentally repeated
words in old RelNotes.
