The code to parse "git -c VAR=VAL cmd" and set configuration
variable for the duration of cmd had two small bugs, which have
been fixed.
This supersedes jc/config-case-cmdline topic that has been discarded.

* jc/config-case-cmdline-take-2:
  config: use git_config_parse_key() in git_config_parse_parameter()
  config: move a few helper functions up

The code to parse the command line "git grep <patterns>... <rev>
[[--] <pathspec>...]" has been cleaned up, and a handful of bugs
have been fixed (e.g. we used to check "--" if it is a rev).

* jk/grep-no-index-fix:
  grep: treat revs the same for --untracked as for --no-index
  grep: do not diagnose misspelt revs with --no-index
  grep: avoid resolving revision names in --no-index case
  grep: fix "--" rev/pathspec disambiguation
  grep: re-order rev-parsing loop
  grep: do not unnecessarily query repo for "--"
  grep: move thread initialization a little lower

"git ls-remote" and "git archive --remote" are designed to work
without being in a directory under Git's control.  However, recent
updates revealed that we randomly look into a directory called
.git/ without actually doing necessary set-up when working in a
repository.  Stop doing so.

* jn/remote-helpers-with-git-dir:
  remote helpers: avoid blind fall-back to ".git" when setting GIT_DIR
  remote: avoid reading $GIT_DIR config in non-repo

Code to read submodule.<name>.ignore config did not state the
variable name correctly when giving an error message diagnosing
misconfiguration.

"git push" had a handful of codepaths that could lead to a deadlock
when unexpected error happened, which has been fixed.

* jk/push-deadlock-regression-fix:
  send-pack: report signal death of pack-objects
  send-pack: read "unpack" status even on pack-objects failure
  send-pack: improve unpack-status error messages
  send-pack: use skip_prefix for parsing unpack status
  send-pack: extract parsing of "unpack" response

A caller of tempfile API that uses stdio interface to write to
files may ignore errors while writing, which is detected when
tempfile is closed (with a call to ferror()).  By that time, the

close_tempfile() now resets errno to EIO to make errno at least
predictable.

"git upload-pack", which is a counter-part of "git fetch", did not

git status provides a porcelain mode for porcelain writers with a
supposedly stable (plumbing) interface.
7a76c28f ("status: disable translation when --porcelain is used", 2014-03-20)
made sure that ahead/behind info is not translated (i.e. is stable).

Make sure that the remaining two strings (initial commit, detached head)
are stable, too.

These changes are for the v1 porcelain interface. While we do have a perfectly
stable v2 porcelain interface now, some tools (such as
powerline-gitstatus) are written against v1 and profit from fixing v1
without any changes on their side.

If we parse a remote alternates (or http-alternates), we
expect relative lines like:

  ../../foo.git/objects

which we convert into "$URL/../foo.git/" (and then use that
as a base for fetching more objects).

But if the remote feeds us nonsense like just:

  ../

we will try to blindly strip the last 7 characters, assuming
they contain the string "objects". Since we don't _have_ 7
characters at all, this results in feeding a small negative
value to strbuf_add(), which converts it to a size_t,
resulting in a big positive value. This should consistently
fail (since we can't generall allocate the max size_t minus
7 bytes), so there shouldn't be any security implications.

Let's fix this by using strbuf_strip_suffix() to drop the
characters we want. If they're not present, we'll ignore the
alternate (in theory we could use it as-is, but the rest of
the http-walker code unconditionally tacks "objects/" back
on, so it is it not prepared to handle such a case).

In 4ac9006f (real_path: have callers use real_pathdup and
strbuf_realpath, 2016-12-12), we changed the xstrdup(real_path())
pattern to use real_pathdup() directly.

The problem with this change is that real_path() calls
strbuf_realpath() with die_on_error = 1 while real_pathdup() calls
it with die_on_error = 0. Meaning that in cases where real_path()
causes Git to die() with an error message, real_pathdup() is silent
and returns NULL instead.

The callers, however, are ill-prepared for that change, as they expect
the return value to be non-NULL (and otherwise the function died
with an appropriate error message).

Fix this by extending real_pathdup()'s signature to accept the
die_on_error flag and simply pass it through to strbuf_realpath(),
and then adjust all callers after a careful audit whether they would
handle NULLs well.
