Change the common patter in the codebase of duplicating the
initialization logic between an *_INIT macro and a
corresponding *_init() function to use the macro as the canonical
source of truth.
Now we no longer need to keep the function up-to-date with the macro
version. This implements a suggestion by Jeff King who found that
under -O2 [1] modern compilers will init new version in place without
the extra copy[1]. The performance of a single *_init() won't matter
in most cases, but even if it does we're going to be producing
efficient machine code to perform these operations.

mailinfo.p_hdr_info/s_hdr_info are null-terminated lists of strbuf's,
with entries pointing either to NULL or an allocated strbuf. Therefore
we need to free those strbuf's (and not just the data they contain)
whenever we're done with a given entry. (See handle_header() where those
new strbufs are malloc'd.)
Once we no longer need the list (and not just its entries) we can switch
over to strbuf_list_free() instead of manually iterating over the list,
which takes care of those additional details for us. We can only do this
in clear_mailinfo() - in handle_commit_message() we are only clearing the
array contents but want to reuse the array itself, hence we can't use
strbuf_list_free() there.
However, strbuf_list_free() cannot handle a NULL input, and the lists we
are freeing might be NULL. Therefore we add a NULL check in
strbuf_list_free() to make it safe to use with a NULL input (which is a
pattern used by some of the other *_free() functions around git).

A misdesigned strbuf_write_fd() function has been retired.
* rs/retire-strbuf-write-fd:
strbuf: remove unreferenced strbuf_write_fd method.
bugreport.c: replace strbuf_write_fd with write_in_full
strbuf_write_fd was only used in bugreport.c. Since that file now uses
write_in_full, this method is no longer needed. In addition, strbuf_write_fd
did not guard against exceeding MAX_IO_SIZE for the platform, nor
provided error handling in the event of a failure if only partial data
was written to the file descriptor. Since already write_in_full has this
capability and is in general use, it should be used instead. The change
impacts strbuf.c and strbuf.h.

help: move list_config_help to builtin/help
46fd7b3900 ("credential: allow wildcard patterns when matching config",
2020-02-20) introduced support for matching credential helpers using
urlmatch. In doing so, it introduced code to percent-encode the paths
we get from the credential helper so that they could be effectively
matched by the urlmatch code.
Unfortunately, that code had a bug: it percent-encoded the slashes in
the path, resulting in any URL path that contained multiple levels
(i.e., a directory component) not matching.
We are currently the only caller of the percent-encoding code and could
simply change it not to encode slashes. However, we still want to
encode slashes in the username component, so we need to have both
behaviors available.
So instead, let's add a flag to control encoding slashes, which is the
behavior we want here, and use it when calling the code in this case.
Add a test for credential helper URLs using multiple slashes in the
path, which our test suite previously lacked, as well as one ensuring
that we handle usernames with slashes gracefully. Since we're testing
other percent-encoding handling, let's add one for non-ASCII UTF-8
characters as well.

its terminating character into a strbuf non-destructively. This is a

In some cases, a user will want to use a specific credential helper for
a wildcard pattern, such as https://*.corp.example.com. We have code
that handles this already with the urlmatch code, so let's use that
instead of our custom code.
Since the urlmatch code is a superset of our current matching in terms
of capabilities, there shouldn't be any cases of things that matched
previously that don't match now. However, in addition to wildcard
matching, we now use partial path matching, which can cause slightly
different behavior in the case that a helper applies to the prefix
(considering path components) of the remote URL. While different, this
is probably the behavior people were wanting anyway.
Since we're using the urlmatch code, we need to encode the components
we've gotten into a URL to match, so add a function to percent-encode
data and format the URL with it. We now also no longer need to the
custom code to match URLs, so let's remove it.
Additionally, the urlmatch code always looks for the best match, whereas
we want all matches for credential helpers to preserve existing
behavior. Let's add an optional field, select_fn, that lets us control
which items we want (in this case, all of them) and default it to the
best-match code that already exists for other users.

}
which is a bit cumbersome compared to just:
if (skip_to_optional_arg(arg, "--key", &arg)) {
/* do something with arg */
}
This also introduces skip_to_optional_arg_default() for the few
cases where something different should be done when the first
argument is exactly "--key" than when it is exactly "--key=".
In general it is better for UI consistency and simplicity if
"--key" and "--key=" do the same thing though, so that using
skip_to_optional_arg() should be encouraged compared to
skip_to_optional_arg_default().
Note that these functions can be used to parse any "key=value"
string where "key" is also considered as valid, not just
command line options.

If other strbuf add functions cause the first allocation and
subsequently encounter an error then they release the memory, restoring
the pristine state of the strbuf. That simplifies error handling for
callers.
Do the same in strbuf_read_once(), and do it also in case no bytes were
read -- which may or may not be an error as well, depending on the
caller.
