We can only check out commits or branches, not refs in general. And the
problem here is if another worktree is using the branch that we want to
check out.
Let’s be more direct and just talk about branches instead of refs.
Also replace “be held” with “in use”. Further, “in use” is not
restricted to a branch being checked out (e.g. the branch could be busy
on a rebase), hence generalize to “or otherwise in use” in the option
description.

The function `unbundle_from_file()` has two memory leaks:
- We do not release the `struct bundle_header header` when hitting
errors because we return early without any cleanup.
- We do not release the `struct strbuf bundle_ref` at all.
Plug these leaks by creating a common exit path where both of these
variables are released.
While at it, refactor the code such that the variable assignments do not
happen inside the conditional statement itself according to our coding
style.

It was reported on the mailing list that running `git maintenance start`
immediately segfaults starting with b6c3f8e12c (builtin/maintenance: fix
leak in `get_schedule_cmd()`, 2024-09-26). And indeed, this segfault is
trivial to reproduce up to a point where one is scratching their head
why we didn't catch this regression in our test suite.
The root cause of this error is `get_schedule_cmd()`, which does not
populate the `out` parameter in all cases anymore starting with the
mentioned commit. Callers do assume it to always be populated though and
will e.g. call `strvec_split()` on the returned value, which will of
course segfault when the variable is uninitialized.
So why didn't we catch this trivial regression? The reason is that our
tests always set up the "GIT_TEST_MAINT_SCHEDULER" environment variable
via "t/test-lib.sh", which allows us to override the scheduler command
with a custom one so that we don't accidentally modify the developer's
system. But the faulty code where we don't set the `out` parameter will
only get hit in case that environment variable is _not_ set, which is
never the case when executing our tests.
Fix the regression by again unconditionally allocating the value in the
`out` parameter, if provided. Add a test that unsets the environment
variable to catch future regressions in this area.

We explicitly avoid saying "ref <src>" when introducing the source
side of a refspec, because it can be a fully-spelled hexadecimal
object name, and it also can be a pattern that is not quite a "ref".
But we are loose when we introduce <dst> and say "ref <dst>", even
though it can also be a pattern. Let's omit "ref" also from the
destination side.
Clarify that <src> can be a ref, a (limited glob) pattern, or an
object name.
Even though the very original design of refspec expected that '*'
was used only at the end (e.g., "refs/heads/*" was expected, but not
"refs/heads/*-wip"), the code and its use evolved to handle a single
'*' anywhere in the pattern. Update the text to remove the mention
of "the same prefix". Anything that matches the pattern are named
by such a (limited glob) pattern in <src>.
Also put a bit more stress on the fact that we accept only one '*'
in the pattern by saying "one and only one `*`".

This test script uses "test - [def]", but when a test fails because
the file passed to it does not exist,
it fails silently without an error message.
Use test_path_* helper functions, which are designed to give better
error messages when their expectations are not met.
I have added a mechanical validation that applies the same transformation
done in this patch, when the test script is passed to a sed script as shown
below.
sed -e 's/^\( *\)test -f /\1test_path_is_file /' \
-e 's/^\( *\)test -d /\1test_path_is_dir /' \
-e 's/^\( *\)test -e /\1test_path_exists /' \
-e 's/^\( *\)! test -[edf] /\1test_path_is_missing /' \
-e 's/^\( *\)test ! -[edf] /\1test_path_is_missing /' \
"$1" >foo.sh
Reviewers can use the sed script to tranform the original test script and
compare the result in foo.sh with the results of applying the patch.
You will see an instance of "!(test -e 3)" which was manually replaced with
""test_path_is_missing 3", and everything else should match.
Careful and deliberate observation was done to check instances where
"test ! - [df] foo" was used in the test script to make sure that the test
instances were expecting foo to EITHER be a file or a directory, and NOT a
possibility of being both as this would make replacing "test ! -f foo" with
"test_path_is_missing foo" unreasonable.
In the tests control flow, foo has been created as EITHER a
reguar file OR a directory and should NOT exist
after "git clean" or "git clean -d", as the case maybe, has been called.
This made it reasonable to replace
"test ! -[df] foo" with "test_path_is_missing foo".

In `loose.c`, we rely on the global variable `the_hash_algo`. As such we
have guarded the file with the 'USE_THE_REPOSITORY_VARIABLE' definition.
Let's derive the hash algorithm from the available repository variable
and remove this guard. This brings us one step closer to removing the
global 'the_repository' variable.

Add jobs that exercise Git on Windows. Unfortunately, building and
especially testing Git on Windows is inherently slower compared to other
Unix-like systems, mostly because spawning processes is way slower. We
thus use the same layout as we use in GitHub Actions, where we have one
build job, and then pass on the resulting build artifacts to ten test
jobs that split up the work across each other.
Unfortunately, the GitLab runners for Windows machines are embarassingly
slow by themselves. So while this strategy leads to around 20 minutes of
build time in GitHub Actions, the same pipeline takes around an hour in
GitLab CI. Still, having late coverage is certainly better than having
none at all.

We're about to add a couple of jobs for Windows. As the Windows runners
are quite slow, we will split those up across two stages: one stage to
build the artifacts, and one stage that runs test slices in parallel.
Introduce stages and "needs" dependencies for the preexisting jobs as a
preparatory step. The stages will lead to a more natural representation
of jobs in the UI, whereas the "needs" dependency ensures that jobs do
not have to wait for all jobs in the preceding stage to finish.
