"git sparse-checkout" wants to work with per-worktree configuration,
but did not work well in a worktree attached to a bare repository.

* ds/sparse-checkout-requires-per-worktree-config:
  config: make git_configset_get_string_tmp() private
  worktree: copy sparse-checkout patterns and config on add
  sparse-checkout: set worktree-config correctly

<id>urn:sha1:615a84ad788b26260c5b053ace2d5720ea5f05c5</id>
<content type='text'>
Upgrading a repository to use extensions.worktreeConfig is non-trivial.
There are several steps involved, including moving some config settings
from the common config file to the main worktree's config.worktree file.
The previous change updated the documentation with all of these details.

Commands such as 'git sparse-checkout set' upgrade the repository to use
extensions.worktreeConfig without following these steps, causing some
user pain in some special cases.

Create a helper method, init_worktree_config(), that will be used in a
later change to fix this behavior within 'git sparse-checkout set'. The
method is carefully documented in worktree.h.

Note that we do _not_ upgrade the repository format version to 1 during
this process. The worktree config extension must be considered by Git
and third-party tools even if core.repositoryFormatVersion is 0 for
historical reasons documented in 11664196ac ("Revert
"check_repository_format_gently(): refuse extensions for old
repositories"", 2020-07-15). This is a special case for this extension,
and newer extensions (such as extensions.objectFormat) still need to
upgrade the repository format version.

<title>refs API: remove "failure_errno" from refs_resolve_ref_unsafe()</title>

<id>urn:sha1:ce14de03db6e1a29ad92c747542f1eb4357f25d6</id>
<content type='text'>
Remove the now-unused "failure_errno" parameter from the
refs_resolve_ref_unsafe() signature. In my recent 96f6623ada0 (Merge
branch 'ab/refs-errno-cleanup', 2021-11-29) series we made all of its
callers explicitly request the errno via an output parameter.

As that series shows all but one caller ended up passing in a
boilerplate "ignore_errno", since they only cared about whether the
return value was NULL or not, i.e. if the ref could be resolved.

There was one small issue with that series fixed with a follow-up in
31e39123695 (Merge branch 'ab/refs-errno-cleanup', 2022-01-14) a small
bug in that series was fixed.

After those two there was one caller left in sequencer.c that used the
"failure_errno', but as of the preceding commit it uses a boilerplate
"ignore_errno" instead.

This leaves the public refs API without any use of "failure_errno" at
all. We could still do with a bit of cleanup and generalization
between refs.c and refs/files-backend.c before the "reftable"
integration lands, but that's all internal to the reference code
itself.

So let's remove this output parameter. Not only isn't it used now, but
it's unlikely that we'll want it again in the future. We'd like to
slowly move the refs API to a more file-backend independent way of
communicating error codes, having it use a "failure_errno" was only
the first step in that direction. If this or any other function needs
to communicate what specifically is wrong with the requested "refname"
it'll be better to have the function set some output enum of
well-defined error states than piggy-backend on "errno".

<title>worktree: simplify find_shared_symref() memory ownership model</title>

<content type='text'>
Storing the worktrees list in a static variable meant that
find_shared_symref() had to rebuild the list on each call (which is
inefficient when the call site is in a loop), and also that each call
invalidated the pointer returned by the previous call (which is
confusing).

Instead, make it the caller’s responsibility to pass in the worktrees
list and manage its lifetime.

<title>refs API: post-migration API renaming [2/2]</title>

<id>urn:sha1:f1da24ca5eeecf8931ffc08b4c8251c689c94a47</id>
<content type='text'>
Rename the transitory refs_werrres_ref_unsafe() function to
refs_resolve_ref_unsafe(), now that all callers of the old function
have learned to pass in a "failure_errno" parameter.

The coccinelle semantic patch added in the preceding commit works, but
I couldn't figure out how to get spatch(1) to re-flow these argument
lists (and sometimes make lines way too long), so this rename was done
with:

    perl -pi -e 's/refs_werrres_ref_unsafe/refs_resolve_ref_unsafe/g' \
    $(git grep -l refs_werrres_ref_unsafe -- '*.c')

But after that "make contrib/coccinelle/refs.cocci.patch" comes up
empty, so the result would have been the same. Let's remove that
transitory semantic patch file, we won't need to retain it for any
other in-flight changes, refs_werrres_ref_unsafe() only existed within
this patch series.

<content type='text'>
There are only handful of callers of find_shared_symref(), none of
whom care about errno, so let's migrate to the non-errno-propagating
version of refs_resolve_ref_unsafe() and explicitly ignore errno here.

<content type='text'>
The static add_head_info() function is only used indirectly by callers
of get_worktrees(), none of whom care about errno, and even if they
did having the faked-up one from refs_resolve_ref_unsafe() would only
confuse them if they used die_errno() et al. So let's explicitly
ignore it here.

<content type='text'>
Remove the refs_read_ref_full() wrapper in favor of migrating various
refs.c API users to the underlying refs_werrres_ref_unsafe() function.

A careful reading of these callers shows that the callers of this
function did not care about "errno", by moving away from the
refs_resolve_ref_unsafe() wrapper we can be sure that nothing relies
on it anymore.

<title>dir: introduce readdir_skip_dot_and_dotdot() helper</title>

<id>urn:sha1:b548f0f1568f6b01e55ca69c24d3cb19489f92aa</id>
<content type='text'>
Many places in the code were doing
    while ((d = readdir(dir)) != NULL) {
        if (is_dot_or_dotdot(d-&gt;d_name))
            continue;
        ...process d...
    }
Introduce a readdir_skip_dot_and_dotdot() helper to make that a one-liner:
    while ((d = readdir_skip_dot_and_dotdot(dir)) != NULL) {
        ...process d...
    }

This helper particularly simplifies checks for empty directories.

Also use this helper in read_cached_dir() so that our statistics are
consistent across platforms.  (In other words, read_cached_dir() should
have been using is_dot_or_dotdot() and skipping such entries, but did
not and left it to treat_path() to detect and mark such entries as
path_none.)
