2185fde563 config: handle conditional include when $GIT_DIR is not set up
If setup_git_directory() and friends have not been called,
get_git_dir() (because of includeIf.gitdir:XXX) would lead to

    die("BUG: setup_git_env called without repository");

There are two cases when a config file could be read before $GIT_DIR
is located.

The first one is check_repository_format(), where we read just the one
file $GIT_DIR/config to check if we could understand this
repository. This case should be safe. We do not parse include
directives, which can only be triggered from git_config_with_options,
but setup code uses a lower-level function. The concerned variables
should never be hidden away behind includes anyway.

The second one is triggered in check_pager_config() when we're about
to run an external git command. We might be able to find $GIT_DIR in
this case, which is exactly what read_early_config() does (and also is
what check_pager_config() uses). Conditional includes and
get_git_dir() could be triggered by the first
git_config_with_options() call there, before discover_git_directory()
is used as a fallback $GIT_DIR detection.

Detect this special "early reading" case, pass down the $GIT_DIR,
either from previous setup or detected by discover_git_directory(),
and make conditional include use it.

882add136f difftool: fix use-after-free
The left and right base directories were pointed to the buf field of
two strbufs, which were subject to change.

A contrived test case shows the problem where a file with a long enough
name to force the strbuf to grow is up-to-date (hence the code path is
used where the work tree's version of the file is reused), and then a
file that is not up-to-date needs to be written (hence the code path is
used where checkout_entry() uses the previously recorded base_dir that
is invalid by now).

Let's just copy the base_dir strings for use with checkout_entry(),
never touch them until the end, and release them then. This is an easily
verifiable fix (as opposed to the next-obvious alternative: to re-set
base_dir after every loop iteration).

This fixes https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/issues/1124

17b254cda6 diff: submodule inline diff to initialize env array.
David reported:
> When I try to run `git diff --submodule=diff` in a submodule which has
> it's own submodules that have changes I get the error: fatal: bad
> object.

This happens, because we do not properly initialize the environment
in which the diff is run in the submodule. That means we inherit the
environment from the main process, which sets environment variables.
(Apparently we do set environment variables which we do not set
when not in a submodules, i.e. the .git directory is linked)

This commit, just like fd47ae6a5b (diff: teach diff to display
submodule difference with an inline diff, 2016-08-31) introduces bad
test code (i.e. hard coded hash values), which will be cleanup up in
a later patch.

51054177b3 index-pack: detect local corruption in collision check
When we notice that we have a local copy of an incoming
object, we compare the two objects to make sure we haven't
found a collision. Before we get to the actual object
bytes, though, we compare the type and size from
sha1_object_info().

If our local object is corrupted, then the type will be
OBJ_BAD, which obviously will not match the incoming type,
and we'll report "SHA1 COLLISION FOUND" (with capital
letters and everything). This is confusing, as the problem
is not a collision but rather local corruption. We should
report that instead (just like we do if reading the rest of
the object content fails a few lines later).

Note that we _could_ just ignore the error and mark it as a
non-collision. That would let you "git fetch" to replace a
corrupted object. But it's not a very reliable method for
repairing a repository. The earlier want/have negotiation
tries to get the other side to omit objects we already have,
and it would not realize that we are "missing" this
corrupted object. So we're better off complaining loudly
when we see corruption, and letting the user take more
drastic measures to repair (like making a full clone
elsewhere and copying the pack into place).

Note that the test sets transfer.unpackLimit in the
receiving repository so that we use index-pack (which is
what does the collision check). Normally for such a small
push we'd use unpack-objects, which would simply try to
write the loose object, and discard the new one when we see
that there's already an old one.

93cff9a978 sha1_loose_object_info: return error for corrupted objects
When sha1_loose_object_info() finds that a loose object file
cannot be stat(2)ed or mmap(2)ed, it returns -1 to signal an
error to the caller.  However, if it found that the loose
object file is corrupt and the object data cannot be used
from it, it stuffs OBJ_BAD into "type" field of the
object_info, but returns zero (i.e., success), which can
confuse callers.

This is due to 052fe5eac (sha1_loose_object_info: make type
lookup optional, 2013-07-12), which switched the return to a
strict success/error, rather than returning the type (but
botched the return).

Callers of regular sha1_object_info() don't notice the
difference, as that function returns the type (which is
OBJ_BAD in this case). However, direct callers of
sha1_object_info_extended() see the function return success,
but without setting any meaningful values in the object_info
struct, leading them to access potentially uninitialized
memory.

The easiest way to see the bug is via "cat-file -s", which
will happily ignore the corruption and report whatever
value happened to be in the "size" variable.

b92ff6e814 sequencer: allow the commit-msg hooks to run during a reword
The `reword` command used to call `git commit` in a manner that asks for
the prepare-commit-msg and commit-msg hooks to do their thing.

Converting that part of the interactive rebase to C code introduced the
regression where those hooks were no longer run.

Let's fix this.

Note: the flag is called `VERIFY_MSG` instead of the more intuitive
`RUN_COMMIT_MSG_HOOKS` to indicate that the flag suppresses the
`--no-verify` flag (which may do other things in the future in addition
to suppressing the commit message hooks, too).

244ea1b5e4 rev-parse: match @{upstream}, @{u} and @{push} case-insensitively
Change the revision parsing logic to match @{upstream}, @{u} & @{push}
case-insensitively.

Before this change supplying anything except the lower-case forms
emits an "unknown revision or path not in the working tree"
error. This change makes upper-case & mixed-case versions equivalent
to the lower-case versions.

The use-case for this is being able to hold the shift key down while
typing @{u} on certain keyboard layouts, which makes the sequence
easier to type, and reduces cases where git throws an error at the
user where it could do what he means instead.

These suffixes now join various other suffixes & special syntax
documented in gitrevisions(7) that matches case-insensitively. A table
showing the status of the various forms documented there before &
after this patch is shown below. The key for the table is:

 - CI  = Case Insensitive
 - CIP = Case Insensitive Possible (without ambiguities)
 - AG  = Accepts Garbage (.e.g. @{./.4.minutes./.})

Before this change:

    |----------------+-----+------+-----|
    | What?          | CI? | CIP? | AG? |
    |----------------+-----+------+-----|
    | @{<date>}      | Y   | Y    | Y   |
    | @{upstream}    | N   | Y    | N   |
    | @{push}        | N   | Y    | N   |
    |----------------+-----+------+-----|

After it:

    |----------------+-----+------+-----|
    | What?          | CI? | CIP? | AG? |
    |----------------+-----+------+-----|
    | @{<date>}      | Y   | Y    | Y   |
    | @{upstream}    | Y   | Y    | N   |
    | @{push}        | Y   | Y    | N   |
    |----------------+-----+------+-----|

The ^{<type>} suffix is not made case-insensitive, because other
places that take <type> like "cat-file -t <type>" do want them case
sensitively (after all we never declared that type names are case
insensitive). Allowing case-insensitive typename only with this syntax
will make the resulting Git as a whole inconsistent.

This change was independently authored to scratch a longtime itch, but
when I was about to submit it I discovered that a similar patch had
been submitted unsuccessfully before by Conrad Irwin in August 2011 as
"rev-parse: Allow @{U} as a synonym for
@{u}" (<1313287071-7851-1-git-send-email-conrad.irwin@gmail.com>).

The tests for this patch are more exhaustive than in the 2011
submission. The starting point for them was to first change the code
to only support upper-case versions of the existing words, seeing what
broke, and amending the breaking tests to check upper case & mixed
case as appropriate, and where not redundant to other similar
tests. The implementation itself is equivalent.

a54e938e5b strbuf: support long paths w/o read rights in strbuf_getcwd() on FreeBSD
FreeBSD implements getcwd(3) as a syscall, but falls back to a version
based on readdir(3) if it fails for some reason.  The latter requires
permissions to read and execute path components, while the former does
not.  That means that if our buffer is too small and we're missing
rights we could get EACCES, but we may succeed with a bigger buffer.

Keep retrying if getcwd(3) indicates lack of permissions until our
buffer can fit PATH_MAX bytes, as that's the maximum supported by the
syscall on FreeBSD anyway.  This way we do what we can to be able to
benefit from the syscall, but we also won't loop forever if there is a
real permission issue.

This fixes a regression introduced with 7333ed17 (setup: convert
setup_git_directory_gently_1 et al. to strbuf, 2014-07-28) for paths
longer than 127 bytes with components that miss read or execute
permissions (e.g. 0711 on /home for privacy reasons); we used a fixed
PATH_MAX-sized buffer before.

4473060bc2 t/README: clarify the test_have_prereq documentation
Clarify the test_have_prereq documentation so that it's clear in the
reader's mind when the text says "most common use of this directly"
what the answer to "as opposed to what?" is.

Usually this function isn't used in lieu of using the prerequisite
support built into test_expect_*, mention that explicitly.

This changes documentation that I added in commit
9a897893a7 ("t/README: Document the prereq functions, and 3-arg
test_*", 2010-07-02).
