Sometimes it helps to list all available config vars so the user can
search for something they want. The config man page can also be used
but it's harder to search if you want to focus on the variable name,
for example.
This is not the best way to collect the available config since it's
not precise. Ideally we should have a centralized list of config in C
code (pretty much like 'struct option'), but that's a lot more work.
This will do for now.

Instead of hard coding the name-to-id mapping in C code, keep it in an
array and use a common function to do the parsing. This reduces code
and also allows us to list all possible color slots later.
This starts using C99 designated initializers more for convenience
(the first designated initializers have been introduced in builtin/clean.c
for some time without complaints)

If you do something like
- git add .
- git status
- git commit
- git show (or git diff HEAD)
one would expect to have analogous output from git status and git show
(or similar diff-related programs). This is generally not the case, as
git status has hard coded values for diff related options.
With this commit the hard coded settings are dropped from the status
command in favour for values provided by git_diff_ui_config.
What follows are some remarks on the concrete options which were hard
coded in git status:
diffopt.detect_rename
Since the very beginning of git status in a3e870f2e2 ("Add "commit"
helper script", 2005-05-30), git status always used rename detection,
whereas with commands like show and log one had to activate it with a
command line option. After 5404c116aa ("diff: activate diff.renames by
default", 2016-02-25) the default behaves the same by coincidence, but
changing diff.renames to other values can break the consistency between
git status and other commands again. With this commit one control the
same default behaviour with diff.renames.
diffopt.rename_limit
Similarly one has the option diff.renamelimit to adjust this limit for
all commands but git status. With this commit git status will also honor
those.
diffopt.break_opt
Unlike the other two options this cannot be configured by a
configuration option yet. This commit will also change the default
behaviour to not use break rewrites. But as rename detection is most
likely on, this is dangerous to be activated anyway as one can see
here:

Currently 'git worktree add <path>' creates a new branch named after the
basename of the path by default. If a branch with that name already
exists, the command refuses to do anything, unless the '--force' option
is given.
However we can do a little better than that, and check the branch out if
it is not checked out anywhere else. This will help users who just want
to check an existing branch out into a new worktree, and save a few
keystrokes.
As the current behaviour is to simply 'die()' when a branch with the name
of the basename of the path already exists, there are no backwards
compatibility worries here.
We will still 'die()' if the branch is checked out in another worktree,
unless the --force flag is passed.

Currently 'git worktree add' produces output like the following:
Preparing ../foo (identifier foo)
HEAD is now at 26da330922 <title>
The '../foo' is the path where the worktree is created, which the user
has just given on the command line. The identifier is an internal
implementation detail, which is not particularly relevant for the user
and indeed isn't mentioned explicitly anywhere in the man page.
Instead of this message, print a message that gives the user a bit more
detail of what exactly 'git worktree' is doing. There are various dwim
modes which perform some magic under the hood, which should be
helpful to users. Just from the output of the command it is not always
visible to users what exactly has happened.
Help the users a bit more by modifying the "Preparing ..." message and
adding some additional information of what 'git worktree add' did under
the hood, while not displaying the identifier anymore.
Currently there are several different cases:
- 'git worktree add -b ...' or 'git worktree add <path>', both of
which create a new branch, either through the user explicitly
requesting it, or through 'git worktree add' implicitly creating
it. This will end up with the following output:
Preparing worktree (new branch '<branch>')
HEAD is now at 26da330922 <title>
- 'git worktree add -B ...', which may either create a new branch if
the branch with the given name does not exist yet, or resets an
existing branch to the current HEAD, or the commit-ish given.
Depending on which action is taken, we'll end up with the following
output:
Preparing worktree (resetting branch '<branch>'; was at caa68db14)
HEAD is now at 26da330922 <title>
or:
Preparing worktree (new branch '<branch>')
HEAD is now at 26da330922 <title>
- 'git worktree add --detach' or 'git worktree add <path>
<commit-ish>', both of which create a new worktree with a detached
HEAD, for which we will print the following output:
Preparing worktree (detached HEAD 26da330922)
HEAD is now at 26da330922 <title>
- 'git worktree add <path> <local-branch>', which checks out the
branch and prints the following output:
Preparing worktree (checking out '<local-branch>')
HEAD is now at 47007d5 <title>
Additionally currently the "Preparing ..." line is printed to stderr,
while the "HEAD is now at ..." line is printed to stdout by 'git reset
--hard', which is used internally by 'git worktree add'. Fix this
inconsistency by printing the "Preparing ..." message to stdout as
well. As "Preparing ..." is not an error, stdout also seems like the
more appropriate output stream.

There is one subtle change in behavior here, where a `git log` that has

upon the first failure, whereas previously, it would have continued to the

In practice, that change should not matter, as it is 1) uncommon to

user asks to be shown those tags, they really should be there.

When running `git rebase --rebase-merges` non-interactively with an
ancestor of HEAD as <upstream> (or leaving the todo list unmodified),
we would ideally recreate the exact same commits as before the rebase.
However, if there are commits in the commit range <upstream>.. that do not
have <upstream> as direct ancestor (i.e. if `git log <upstream>..` would
show commits that are omitted by `git log --ancestry-path <upstream>..`),
this is currently not the case: we would turn them into commits that have
<upstream> as direct ancestor.
Let's illustrate that with a diagram:
C
/ \
A - B - E - F
\ /
D
Currently, after running `git rebase -i --rebase-merges B`, the new branch
structure would be (pay particular attention to the commit `D`):
--- C' --
/ \
A - B ------ E' - F'
\ /
D'
This is not really preserving the branch topology from before! The
reason is that the commit `D` does not have `B` as ancestor, and
therefore it gets rebased onto `B`.
This is unintuitive behavior. Even worse, when recreating branch
structure, most use cases would appear to want cousins *not* to be
rebased onto the new base commit. For example, Git for Windows (the
heaviest user of the Git garden shears, which served as the blueprint
for --rebase-merges) frequently merges branches from `next` early, and
these branches certainly do *not* want to be rebased. In the example
above, the desired outcome would look like this:
--- C' --
/ \
A - B ------ E' - F'
\ /
-- D' --
Let's introduce the term "cousins" for such commits ("D" in the
example), and let's not rebase them by default. For hypothetical
use cases where cousins *do* need to be rebased, `git rebase
--rebase=merges=rebase-cousins` needs to be used.

The sequencer just learned new commands intended to recreate branch
structure (similar in spirit to --preserve-merges, but with a
substantially less-broken design).
Let's allow the rebase--helper to generate todo lists making use of
these commands, triggered by the new --rebase-merges option. For a
commit topology like this (where the HEAD points to C):
- A - B - C
\ /
D
the generated todo list would look like this:
# branch D
pick 0123 A
label branch-point
pick 1234 D
label D
reset branch-point
pick 2345 B
merge -C 3456 D # C
To keep things simple, we first only implement support for merge commits
with exactly two parents, leaving support for octopus merges to a later
patch series.
All merge-rebasing todo lists start with a hard-coded `label onto` line.
This makes it convenient to refer later on to the revision onto which
everything is rebased, e.g. as starting point for branches other than
the very first one.

Add a repository argument to allow callers of packed_object_info to be
more specific about which repository to handle. This is a small
mechanical change; it doesn't change the implementation to handle
repositories other than the_repository yet.
As with the previous commits, use a macro to catch callers passing a
repository other than the_repository at compile time.
