When core.commentChar is set to "auto", Git selects a comment character
by scanning the commit message contents and avoiding any character
already present in the message.
If the message still contains old conflict comments (starting with a
comment character), Git assumes that character is in use and chooses a
different one. As a result, those existing comment lines are no longer
recognized as comments and end up being included in the final commit
message.
To avoid this, skip scanning the trailing comment block when selecting
the comment character. This allows Git to safely reuse the original
character when appropriate, keeping the commit message clean and free of
leftover conflict information.
Background:
The "auto" value for core.commentchar was introduced in the commit
84c9dc2c5a (commit: allow core.commentChar=auto for character auto
selection, 2014-05-17) but did not exhibit this issue at that time.
The bug was introduced in commit a6c2654f83 (rebase -m: fix --signoff
with conflicts, 2024-04-18) where Git started writing conflict comments
to the file at 'rebase_path_message()'.

The difference of two unsigned integers is defined to be unsigned, and
therefore it is misleading to check whether it is greater than zero
(instead, the more natural way would be to check whether the difference
is zero or not).
Let's instead avoid the subtraction altogether, and compare the two
operands directly, which makes the code more obvious as a side effect.
Pointed out by CodeQL's rule with the ID
`cpp/unsigned-difference-expression-compared-zero`.

While we expose macros for most of our different option types understood
by the "parse-options" subsystem, not every combination of fields that
has one as that would otherwise quickly lead to an explosion of macros.
Instead, we just initialize structures manually for those variants of
fields that don't have a macro.
Callsites that open-code these structure initialization don't use
designated initializers though and instead just provide values for each
of the fields that they want to initialize. This has three significant
downsides:
- Callsites need to specify all values up to the last field that they
care about. This often includes fields that should simply be left at
their default zero-initialized state, which adds distraction.
- Any reader not deeply familiar with the layout of the structure
has a hard time figuring out what the respective initializers mean.
- Reordering or introducing new fields in the middle of the structure
is impossible without adapting all callsites.
Convert all sites to instead use designated initializers, which we have
started using in our codebase quite a while ago. This allows us to skip
any default-initialized fields, gives the reader context by specifying
the field names and allows us to reorder or introduce new fields where
we want to.

Remove `git_path()` in favor of the `repo_git_path()` family of
functions, which makes the implicit dependency on `the_repository` go
away.
Note that `git_path()` returned a string allocated via `get_pathname()`,
which uses a rotating set of statically allocated buffers. Consequently,
callers didn't have to free the returned string. The same isn't true for
`repo_common_path()`, so we also have to add logic to free the returned
strings.
This refactoring also allows us to remove `repo_common_pathv()` as well
as `get_pathname()` from the public interface.

When the comment line character has been specified multiple times in the
configuration, then `git_default_core_config()` will cause a memory leak
because it unconditionally copies the string into `comment_line_str`
without free'ing the previous value. In fact, it can't easily free the
value in the first place because it may contain a string constant.
Refactor the code such that we track allocated comment character strings
via a separate non-constant variable `comment_line_str_to_free`. Adapt
sites that set `comment_line_str` to set both and free the old value
that was stored in `comment_line_str_to_free`.
This memory leak is being hit in t3404. As there are still other memory
leaks in that file we cannot yet mark it as passing with leak checking
enabled.

When creating commits via `commit_tree_extended()`, the caller passes in
a string list of parents. This call implicitly transfers ownership of
that list to the function, which is quite surprising to begin with. But
to make matters worse, `commit_tree_extended()` doesn't even bother to
free the list of parents in error cases. The result is a memory leak,
and one that the caller cannot fix by themselves because they do not
know whether parts of the string list have already been released.
Refactor the code such that callers can keep ownership of the list of
parents, which is getting indicated by parameter being a constant
pointer now. Free the lists at the calling site and add a common exit
path to those sites as required.

"git tag" learned the "--trailer" option to futz with the trailers
in the same way as "git commit" does.
* jp/tag-trailer:
builtin/tag: add --trailer option

builtin/commit: use ARGV macro to collect trailers

git-commit adds user trailers to the commit message by passing its

--in-place`. This logic is broadly useful, not just for git-commit but
for other commands constructing message bodies (e.g. git-tag).
Let's move this logic from git-commit to a new function in the trailer
API, so that it can be re-used in other commands.

When we provide a pathspec which does not match any tracked path
alongside --include, we do not error like without --include. If there
is something staged, it will commit the staged changes and ignore the
pathspec which does not match any tracked path. And if nothing is
staged, it will print the status. Exit code is 0 in both cases (unlike
without --include). This is also described in the TODO comment before
the relevant testcase.
Fix this by passing a character array to add_files_to_cache() to
collect the pathspec matching information and error out if the given
path is untracked. Also, amend the testcase to check for the error
message and remove the TODO comment.

Unlike "git add" and other end-user facing commands, where it is
diagnosed as an error to give a pathspec with an element that does
not match any path, the diff machinery does not care if some
elements of the pathspec do not match. Given that the diff
machinery is heavily used in pathspec-limited "git log" machinery,
and it is common for a path to come and go while traversing the
project history, this is usually a good thing.
However, in some cases we would want to know if all the pathspec
elements matched. For example, "git add -u <pathspec>" internally
uses the machinery used by "git diff-files" to decide contents from
what paths to add to the index, and as an end-user facing command,
"git add -u" would want to report an unmatched pathspec element.
Add a new .ps_matched member next to the .prune_data member in
"struct rev_info" so that we can optionally keep track of the use of
.prune_data pathspec elements that can be inspected by the caller.

As part of our transition to multi-byte comment characters, we should
use the string variable rather than the historical character variable.
All of the sites adjusted here are just swapping out "%c" for "%s" in
format strings, or strbuf_addch() for strbuf_addstr(). The type system
and printf-attribute give the compiler enough information to make sure
our formats and variable changes all match (especially important for

As part of our transition to multi-byte comment characters, let's take a
NUL-terminated string pointer for strbuf_stripspace(), rather than a
single character. We can continue to support its feature of ignoring
comments by accepting a NULL pointer (as opposed to the current behavior
of a NUL byte).
All of the callers have to be adjusted, but they can all just pass
comment_line_str (or NULL).
Inside the function we detect comments by comparing the first byte of a
line to the comment character. We'll adjust that to use starts_with(),
which will match multiple bytes (though for now, of course, we still
only allow a single byte, so it's academic).

We'd like to eventually support multi-byte comment prefixes, but the
comment_line_char variable is referenced in many spots, making the
transition difficult.
Let's start by storing the character in a NUL-terminated string. That
will let us switch code over incrementally to the string format, and we
can easily support the existing code with a macro wrapper (since we'll
continue to allow only a single-byte prefix, this will behave
identically).
Once all references to the "char" variable have been converted, we can
drop it and enable longer strings.
We'll still have to touch all of the spots that create or set the
variable in this patch, but there are only a few (reading the config,
and the "auto" character selector).

When core.commentChar is set to "auto", we check a set of candidate
characters against the proposed buffer to see which if any can be used
without ambiguity. But before we do that, we optimize for the common
case that the default "#" is fine by just seeing if it is present in the
buffer at all.
The way we do this is a bit subtle, though: we assign the candidate
character to comment_line_char preemptively, then check if it works, and
return if it does. The subtle part is that sometimes setting
comment_line_char is important (after we return, the important outcome
is the fact that we have set the variable) and sometimes it is useless
(if our optimization fails, we go on to do the more careful checks and
eventually assign something else instead).
To make it more clear what is happening (and to make further refactoring
of comment_line_char easier), let's check our candidate character
directly, and then assign as part of returning if it worked out.
