scalar: avoid segfault in reconfigure --all
During the latest v2.45.0 update, 'scalar reconfigure --all' started to
segfault on my machine. Breaking it down via the debugger, it was
faulting on a NULL reference to the_hash_algo, which is a macro pointing
to the_repository->hash_algo.
In my case, this is due to one of my repositories having a detached HEAD,
which requires get_oid_hex() to parse that the HEAD reference is valid.
Another way to cause a failure is to use the "includeIf.onbranch" config
key, which will lead to a BUG() statement.
My first inclination was to try to refactor cmd_reconfigure() to execute
'git for-each-repo' instead of this loop. In addition to the difficulty
of executing 'scalar reconfigure' within 'git for-each-repo', it would
be difficult to perform the clean-up logic for non-existent repos if we
relied on that child process.
Instead, I chose to move the temporary repo to be within the loop and
reinstate the_repository to its old value after we are done performing
logic on the current array item.
Add tests to t9210-scalar.sh to test 'scalar reconfigure --all' with
multiple registered repos. There are two different ways that the old
use of the_repository could trigger bugs. These issues are being solved
independently to be more careful about the_repository being
uninitialized, but the change in this patch around the use of
the_repository is still a good safety precaution.

With this change, you can now use test-tool to run the unit tests:

running the shell test suite, and therefore filters out anything that

Later in this series, we'll adapt `test-tool run-command testsuite` to
also support unit tests, which do not follow the same naming conventions

uses of `testsuite` in our codebase, it should be OK to break backwards

execute "." and "..", so that users who wish to execute every test in a

Python at all for many of them.
Since the CI refactorings have originally been implemented, Ubuntu
24.04 was released, and it being an LTS versions means that the "latest"
tag now points to that Python-2-less version. Consequently, those jobs
that use "ubuntu:latest" broke.
Address this by using Python 2 on Ubuntu 20.04, only, whereas we use
Python 3 on all other Ubuntu jobs. Eventually, we should think about
dropping support for Python 2 completely.

Until now, `git config -h` would have printed help for the old-style
syntax. Now that all modes have proper subcommands though it is
preferable to instead display the subcommand help.
Drop the `NO_INTERNAL_HELP` flag to do so. While at it, drop the help
mismatch in t0450 and add the `--get-colorbool` option to the usage such
that git-config(1)'s synopsis and `git config -h` match.

While git-config(1) has several modes, those modes are not exposed with
subcommands but instead by specifying action flags like `--unset` or
`--list`. This user interface is not really in line with how our more
modern commands work, where it is a lot more customary to say e.g. `git
remote list`. Furthermore, to add to the confusion, git-config(1) also
allows the user to request modes implicitly by just specifying the
correct number of arguments. Thus, `git config foo.bar` will retrieve
the value of "foo.bar" while `git config foo.bar baz` will set it to
"baz".
Overall, this makes for a confusing interface that could really use a
makeover. It hurts discoverability of what you can do with git-config(1)
and is comparatively easy to get wrong. Converting the command to have
subcommands instead would go a long way to help address these issues.
One concern in this context is backwards compatibility. Luckily, we can
introduce subcommands without breaking backwards compatibility at all.
This is because all the implicit modes of git-config(1) require that the
first argument is a properly formatted config key. And as config keys
_must_ have a dot in their name, any value without a dot would have been
discarded by git-config(1) previous to this change. Thus, given that
none of the subcommands do have a dot, they are unambiguous.
Introduce the first such new subcommand, which is "git config list". To
retain backwards compatibility we only conditionally use subcommands and
will fall back to the old syntax in case no subcommand was detected.
This should help to transition to the new-style syntax until we
eventually deprecate and remove the old-style syntax.
Note that the way we handle this we're duplicating some functionality
across old and new syntax. While this isn't pretty, it helps us to
ensure that there really is no change in behaviour for the old syntax.
Amend tests such that we run them both with old and new style syntax.
As tests are now run twice, state from the first run may be still be
around in the second run and thus cause tests to fail. Add cleanup logic
as required to fix such tests.

The git-config(1) command has various different modes which are

- The respective modes also have a negated form `--no-get-urlmatch`,
which is unintended.
- We have to manually handle exclusiveness of the modes.
Switch these options to instead use `OPT_CMDMODE()`, which is made
exactly for this usecase. Remove the now-unneeded check that only a
single mode is given, which is now handled by the parse-options
interface.

config: clarify memory ownership when preparing comment strings
The ownership of memory returned when preparing a comment string is
quite intricate: when the returned value is different than the passed
value, then the caller is responsible to free the memory. This is quite
subtle, and it's even easier to miss because the returned value is in
fact a `const char *`.
Adapt the function to always return either `NULL` or a newly allocated
string. The function is called at most once per git-config(1), so it's
not like this micro-optimization really matters. Thus, callers are now
always responsible for freeing the value.

In doing so, plug a leak in `read_attr_from_index()` where we would
accidentally leak the large buffer upon detecting it is too large to

a NULL check before calling it in `read_attr_from_index()` as well).

stop using HEAD for attributes in bare repository by default
With 23865355 (attr: read attributes from HEAD when bare repo,
2023-10-13), we started to use the HEAD tree as the default
attribute source in a bare repository. One argument for such a
behaviour is that it would make things like "git archive" run in
bare and non-bare repositories for the same commit consistent.
This changes was merged to Git 2.43 but without an explicit mention
in its release notes.
It turns out that this change destroys performance of shallowly
cloning from a bare repository. As the "server" installations are
expected to be mostly bare, and "git pack-objects", which is the
core of driving the other side of "git clone" and "git fetch" wants
to see if a path is set not to delta with blobs from other paths via
the attribute system, the change forces the server side to traverse
the tree of the HEAD commit needlessly to find if each and every
paths the objects it sends out has the attribute that controls the
deltification. Given that (1) most projects do not configure such
an attribute, and (2) it is dubious for the server side to honor
such an end-user supplied attribute anyway, this was a poor choice
of the default.
To mitigate the current situation, let's revert the change that uses
the tree of HEAD in a bare repository by default as the attribute
source. This will help most people who have been happy with the
behaviour of Git 2.42 and before.
Two things to note:
* If you are stuck with versions of Git 2.43 or newer, that is
older than the release this fix appears in, you can explicitly
set the attr.tree configuration variable to point at an empty
tree object, i.e.
* If you like the behaviour we are reverting, you can explicitly
set the attr.tree configuration variable to HEAD, i.e.
$ git config attr.tree HEAD
The right fix for this is to optimize the code paths that allow
accesses to attributes in tree objects, but that is a much more
involved change and is left as a longer-term project, outside the
scope of this "first step" fix.
