Simply replacing all of these '+' with empty lines makes this render

treewide: always have a valid "index_state.repo" member
When the "repo" member was added to "the_index" in [1] the
repo_read_index() was made to populate it, but the unpopulated
"the_index" variable didn't get the same treatment.
Let's do that in initialize_the_repository() when we set it up, and
likewise for all of the current callers initialized an empty "struct
index_state".
This simplifies code that needs to deal with "the_index" or a custom
"struct index_state", we no longer need to second-guess this part of
the "index_state" deep in the stack. A recent example of such
second-guessing is the "istate->repo ? istate->repo : the_repository"
code in [2]. We can now simply use "istate->repo".
We're doing this by making use of the INDEX_STATE_INIT() macro (and
corresponding function) added in [3], which now have mandatory "repo"
arguments.
Because we now call index_state_init() in repository.c's
initialize_the_repository() we don't need to handle the case where we
have a "repo->index" whose "repo" member doesn't match the "repo"
we're setting up, i.e. the "Complete the double-reference" code in
repo_read_index() being altered here. That logic was originally added
in [1], and was working around the lack of what we now have in
initialize_the_repository().
For "fsmonitor-settings.c" we can remove the initialization of a NULL
"r" argument to "the_repository". This was added back in [4], and was
needed at the time for callers that would pass us the "r" from an
"istate->repo". Before this change such a change to
"fsmonitor-settings.c" would segfault all over the test suite (e.g. in
t0002-gitfile.sh).
This change has wider eventual implications for
"fsmonitor-settings.c". The reason the other lazy loading behavior in
it is required (starting with "if (!r->settings.fsmonitor) ..." is
because of the previously passed "r" being "NULL".
I have other local changes on top of this which move its configuration
reading to "prepare_repo_settings()" in "repo-settings.c", as we could
now start to rely on it being called for our "r". But let's leave all
of that for now, and narrowly remove this particular part of the
lazy-loading.

http: support CURLOPT_PROTOCOLS_STR
The CURLOPT_PROTOCOLS (and matching CURLOPT_REDIR_PROTOCOLS) flag was
deprecated in curl 7.85.0, and using it generate compiler warnings as of
curl 7.87.0. The path forward is to use CURLOPT_PROTOCOLS_STR, but we
can't just do so unilaterally, as it was only introduced less than a
year ago in 7.85.0.
Until that version becomes ubiquitous, we have to either disable the
deprecation warning or conditionally use the "STR" variant on newer
versions of libcurl. This patch switches to the new variant, which is
nice for two reasons:
- we don't have to worry that silencing curl's deprecation warnings
might cause us to miss other more useful ones
- we'd eventually want to move to the new variant anyway, so this gets
us set up (albeit with some extra ugly boilerplate for the
conditional)
There are a lot of ways to split up the two cases. One way would be to
abstract the storage type (strbuf versus a long), how to append
(strbuf_addstr vs bitwise OR), how to initialize, which CURLOPT to use,
and so on. But the resulting code looks pretty magical:
GIT_CURL_PROTOCOL_TYPE allowed = GIT_CURL_PROTOCOL_TYPE_INIT;
if (...http is allowed...)
GIT_CURL_PROTOCOL_APPEND(&allowed, "http", CURLOPT_HTTP);
and you end up with more "#define GIT_CURL_PROTOCOL_TYPE" macros than
actual code.
On the other end of the spectrum, we could just implement two separate
functions, one that handles a string list and one that handles bits. But
then we end up repeating our list of protocols (http, https, ftp, ftp).
This patch takes the middle ground. The run-time code is always there to
handle both types, and we just choose which one to feed to curl.

http: prefer CURLOPT_SEEKFUNCTION to CURLOPT_IOCTLFUNCTION
The IOCTLFUNCTION option has been deprecated, and generates a compiler
warning in recent versions of curl. We can switch to using SEEKFUNCTION
instead. It was added in 2008 via curl 7.18.0; our INSTALL file already
indicates we require at least curl 7.19.4.
But there's one catch: curl says we should use CURL_SEEKFUNC_{OK,FAIL},
and those didn't arrive until 7.19.5. One workaround would be to use a
bare 0/1 here (or define our own macros). But let's just bump the
minimum required version to 7.19.5. That version is only a minor version
bump from our existing requirement, and is only a 2 month time bump for
versions that are almost 13 years old. So it's not likely that anybody
cares about the distinction.
Switching means we have to rewrite the ioctl functions into seek
functions. In some ways they are simpler (seeking is the only
operation), but in some ways more complex (the ioctl allowed only a full
rewind, but now we can seek to arbitrary offsets).
Curl will only ever use SEEK_SET (per their documentation), so I didn't
bother implementing anything else, since it would naturally be
completely untested. This seems unlikely to change, but I added an
assertion just in case.
Likewise, I doubt curl will ever try to seek outside of the buffer sizes
we've told it, but I erred on the defensive side here, rather than do an
out-of-bounds read.

While not strictly necessary, let's also change the CALLOC_ARRAY() of

index_state_init() instead.
We're then adding the release_index() function and converting some
callers (including some of these allocations) over to it if they

attr: add flag `--source` to work with tree-ish
The contents of the .gitattributes files may evolve over time, but "git
check-attr" always checks attributes against them in the working tree
and/or in the index. It may be beneficial to optionally allow the users
to check attributes taken from a commit other than HEAD against paths.
Add a new flag `--source` which will allow users to check the
attributes against a commit (actually any tree-ish would do). When the
user uses this flag, we go through the stack of .gitattributes files but
instead of checking the current working tree and/or in the index, we
check the blobs from the provided tree-ish object. This allows the
command to also be used in bare repositories.
Since we use a tree-ish object, the user can pass "--source
HEAD:subdirectory" and all the attributes will be looked up as if
subdirectory was the root directory of the repository.
We cannot simply use the `<rev>:<path>` syntax without the `--source`
flag, similar to how it is used in `git show` because any non-flag
parameter before `--` is treated as an attribute and any parameter after
`--` is treated as a pathname.
The change involves creating a new function `read_attr_from_blob`, which
given the path reads the blob for the path against the provided source and
parses the attributes line by line. This function is plugged into
`read_attr()` function wherein we go through the stack of attributes
files.

t0003: move setup for `--all` into new block
There is some setup code which is used by multiple tests being setup in
`attribute test: --all option`. This means when we run "sh
./t0003-attributes.sh --run=setup,<num>" there is a chance of failing
since we missed this setup block.
So to ensure that setups are independent of test logic, move this to a
new setup block.

doc: fix non-existent config name
Replace non-existent `branch.<name>.fetch` to `remote.<repository>.fetch`, in
the first example in `git-fetch` doc, which was introduced in d504f6975d (modernize fetch/merge/pull examples, 2009-10-21).
Rename placeholder `<name>` to `<repository>`, to be consistent with all other
uses in git docs, except that `git-config.txt` uses `remote.<name>.fetch` in
its "Variables" section.
Also add missing monospace markups.

The "ls-tree" command isn't capable of ending "lines" with anything
except '\n' or '\0', and in the latter case we can avoid calling
write_name_quoted_relative() entirely. Let's do that, less for
optimization and more for clarity, the write_name_quoted_relative()
API itself does much the same thing.

After the the preceding two commits the only user of the
"show_tree_data" struct needed it along with the "options" member,
let's instead fold all of that into a "show_tree_data" struct that
we'll use only for that callback.

As a first step towards being able to turn this code into an API some
day let's change the "static" options in builtin/ls-tree.c into a
"struct ls_tree_options" that can be constructed dynamically without
the help of parse_options().
Because we're now using non-static variables for this we'll need to
clear_pathspec() at the end of cmd_ls_tree(), least various tests
start failing under SANITIZE=leak. The memory leak was already there
before, now it's just being brought to the surface.

ls-tree: don't use "show_tree_data" for "fast" callbacks
As noted in [1] the code that made it in as part of 9c4d58ff2c3 (ls-tree: split up "fast path" callbacks, 2022-03-23) was
a "maybe a good idea, maybe not" RFC-quality patch. I hadn't looked
very carefully at the resulting patterns.
The implementation shared the "struct show_tree_data data", which was
introduced in e81517155e0 (ls-tree: introduce struct "show_tree_data",
2022-03-23) both for use in 455923e0a15 (ls-tree: introduce "--format"
option, 2022-03-23), and because the "fat" callback hadn't been split
up as 9c4d58ff2c3 did.
Now that that's been done we can see that most of what
show_tree_common() was doing could be done lazily by the callbacks
themselves, who in the pre-image were often using an odd mis-match of
their own arguments and those same arguments stuck into the "data"
structure. Let's also have the callers initialize the "type", rather
than grabbing it from the "data" structure afterwards.

bisect: no longer try to clean up left-over `.git/head-name` files
As per the code comment, the `.git/head-name` files were cleaned up for
backwards-compatibility: an old version of `git bisect` could have left
them behind.
Now, just how old would such a version be? As of 0f497e75f05 (Eliminate
confusing "won't bisect on seeked tree" failure, 2008-02-23), `git
bisect` does not write that file anymore. Which corresponds to Git
v1.5.4.4.
Even if the likelihood is non-nil that there might still be users out
there who use such an old version to start a bisection, but then decide
to continue bisecting with a current Git version, it is highly
improbable.
So let's remove that code, at long last.

Once upon a time, there was this idea that Git would not actually be a
single coherent program, but rather a set of low-level programs that
users cobble together via shell scripts, or develop high-level user
interfaces for Git, or both.
Cogito was such a high-level user interface, incidentally implemented
via shell scripts that cobble together Git calls.
It did turn out relatively quickly that Git would much rather provide a
useful high-level user interface itself.
As of April 19th, 2007, Cogito was therefore discontinued (see
https://lore.kernel.org/git/20070419124648.GL4489@pasky.or.cz/).
Nevertheless, for almost 15 years after that announcement, Git carried
special code in `git bisect` to accommodate Cogito.
Since it is beyond doubt that there are no more Cogito users, let's
remove the last remnant of Cogito-accommodating code.

In d1bbbe45df8 (bisect--helper: reimplement `bisect_run` shell function
in C, 2021-09-13), we ported the `bisect run` subcommand to C, including
the part that prints out an error message when the implicit `git bisect
bad` or `git bisect good` failed.
However, the error message was supposed to print out whether the state
was "good" or "bad", but used a bogus (because non-populated) `args`
variable for it. This was fixed in [1], but as of [2] (when
`bisect--helper` was changed to the present `bisect-state') the error
message still talks about implementation details that should not
concern end users.
Fix that, and add a regression test to ensure that the intended form of
the error message.
