This regression was introduced in 74703a1e4d (submodule: rewrite
`module_list` shell function in C, 2015-09-02), as we changed the
order of checking in new module listing to first check whether it is
a gitlin before feeding it to match_pathspec(). It used to be that
a pathspec that does not match any path were diagnosed as an error,
but the new code complains for a pathspec that does not match any
submodule path.
Arguably the new behaviour may give us a better diagnosis, but that
is inconsistent with the suggestion "deinit" gives, and also this
was an unintended accident. The new behaviour hopefully can be
redesigned and implemented better in future releases, but for now,
switch these two checks to restore the same behavior as before. In
an empty repository, giving the pathspec '.' will still get the same
"did not match" error, but that is the same bug we had before 1.7.0.

If a pack .idx file has a corrupted offset for an object, we
may try to access an offset in the .idx or .pack file that
is larger than the file's size. For the .pack case, we have
use_pack() to protect us, which realizes the access is out
of bounds. But if the corrupted value asks us to look in the
.idx file's secondary 64-bit offset table, we blindly add it
to the mmap'd index data and access arbitrary memory.
We can fix this with a simple bounds-check compared to the
size we found when we opened the .idx file.
Note that there's similar code in index-pack that is
triggered only during "index-pack --verify". To support
both, we pull the bounds-check into a separate function,
which dies when it sees a corrupted file.
It would be nice if we could return an error, so that the
pack code could try to find a good copy of the object
elsewhere. Currently nth_packed_object_offset doesn't have
any way to return an error, but it could probably use "0" as
a sentinel value (since no object can start there). This is
the minimal fix, and we can improve the resilience later on
top.

The warning was important before the 2.0 transition, and remained
important for a while after, so that new users get push.default
explicitly in their configuration and do not experience inconsistent
behavior if they ever used an older version of Git.
The warning has been there since version 1.8.0 (Oct 2012), hence we can
expect the vast majority of current Git users to have been exposed to
it, and most of them have already set push.default explicitly. The
switch from 'matching' to 'simple' was planned for 2.0 (May 2014), but
actually happened only for 2.3 (Feb 2015).
Today, the warning is mostly seen by beginners, who have not set their
push.default configuration (yet). For many of them, the warning is
confusing because it talks about concepts that they have not learned and
asks them a choice that they are not able to make yet. See for example
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/13148066/warning-push-default-is-unset-its-implicit-value-is-changing-in-git-2-0
(1260 votes for the question, 1824 for the answer as of writing)
Remove the warning completely to avoid disturbing beginners. People who
still occasionally use an older version of Git will be exposed to the
warning through this old version.
Eventually, versions of Git without the warning will be deployed enough
and tutorials will not need to advise setting push.default anymore.

We have two variants of this function, one that takes a
string and one that takes a ptr/len combo. But we only call
the latter with the length of a NUL-terminated string, so
our first simplification is to drop it in favor of the
string variant.
Since we know we have a string, we can also replace the
manual memory computation with a call to alloc_ref().
Furthermore, we can rely on get_oid_hex() to complain if it
hits the end of the string. That means we can simplify the
check for "<sha1> <ref>" versus just "<ref>". Rather than
manage the ptr/len pair, we can just bump the start of our
string forward. The original code over-allocated based on
the original "namelen" (which wasn't _wrong_, but was simply
wasteful and confusing).

We frequently allocate strings as xmalloc(len + 1), where
the extra 1 is for the NUL terminator. This can be done more
simply with xmallocz, which also checks for integer
overflow.
There's no case where switching xmalloc(n+1) to xmallocz(n)
is wrong; the result is the same length, and malloc made no
guarantees about what was in the buffer anyway. But in some
cases, we can stop manually placing NUL at the end of the
allocated buffer. But that's only safe if it's clear that
the contents will always fill the buffer.
In each case where this patch does so, I manually examined
the control flow, and I tried to err on the side of caution.

Each of these cases can be converted to use ALLOC_ARRAY or
REALLOC_ARRAY, which has two advantages:
1. It automatically checks the array-size multiplication
for overflow.
2. It always uses sizeof(*array) for the element-size,
so that it can never go out of sync with the declared
type of the array.

There are many manual argv allocations that predate the
argv_array API. Switching to that API brings a few
advantages:
1. We no longer have to manually compute the correct final
array size (so it's one less thing we can screw up).
2. In many cases we had to make a separate pass to count,
then allocate, then fill in the array. Now we can do it
in one pass, making the code shorter and easier to
follow.
3. argv_array handles memory ownership for us, making it
more obvious when things should be free()d and and when
not.
Most of these cases are pretty straightforward. In some, we
switch from "run_command_v" to "run_command" which lets us
directly use the argv_array embedded in "struct
child_process".

As some code may rely on the actual return values for

You can tweak the reflog expiration for a particular subset
of refs by configuring gc.foo.reflogexpire. We keep a linked

pattern itself is _not_ NUL-terminated.
However, we feed the pattern directly to wildmatch(), which
expects a NUL-terminated string, meaning it may keep reading
random junk after our struct.
We can fix this by allocating an extra byte for the NUL
(which is already zero because we use xcalloc). Let's also
drop the misleading "len" field, which is no longer
necessary. The existing use of "len" can be converted to use

Both remote add and remote rename use a slightly different hand-rolled
check if the remote exits. The hand-rolled check may have some subtle
cases in which it might fail to detect when a remote already exists.
One such case was fixed in fb86e32 ("git remote: allow adding remotes
agreeing with url.<...>.insteadOf"). Another case is when a remote is
configured as follows:
[remote "foo"]
vcs = bar
If we try to run `git remote add foo bar` with the above remote
configuration, git segfaults. This change fixes it.
In addition, git remote rename $existing foo with the configuration for
foo as above silently succeeds, even though foo already exists,
modifying its configuration. With this patch it fails with "remote foo
