Unlinking a file may fail on Windows systems when the file is still held
open by another process. This is incompatible with POSIX semantics and
by extension with Git's assumed semantics when unlinking files, which
is that files can be unlinked regardless of whether they are still open
or not. To counteract this incompatibility, we have some custom error
handling in the `mingw_unlink()` wrapper that first retries the deletion
with some delay, and then asks the user whether we should continue to
retry.
While this logic might be sensible in many callsites throughout Git, it
is less when used in the reftable library. We only use unlink(3) there
to delete tables which aren't referenced anymore, and the code is very
aware of the limitations on Windows. As such, all calls to unlink(3p)
don't perform any error checking at all and are fine with the call
failing.
Instead, the library provides the `reftable_stack_clean()` function,
which Git knows to execute in git-pack-refs(1) after compacting a stack.
The effect of this function is that all stale tables will eventually get
deleted once they aren't kept open anymore.
So while we're fine with unlink(3p) failing, the Windows-emulation of
that function will still perform several sleeps and ultimately end up
asking the user:
$ git pack-refs
Unlink of file 'C:/temp/jgittest/jgit/.git/reftable/0x000000000002-0x000000000004-50486d0e.ref' failed. Should I try again? (y/n) n
Unlink of file 'C:/temp/jgittest/jgit/.git/reftable/0x000000000002-0x000000000004-50486d0e.ref' failed. Should I try again? (y/n) n
Unlink of file 'C:/temp/jgittest/jgit/.git/reftable/0x000000000002-0x000000000004-50486d0e.ref' failed. Should I try again? (y/n) n
It even asks multiple times, which is doubly annoying and puzzling to
the user:
1. It asks when trying to delete the old file after having written the
compacted stack.
2. It asks when reloading the stack, where it will try to unlink
now-unreferenced tables.
3. It asks when calling `reftable_stack_clean()`, where it will try to
unlink now-stale tables.
Fix the issue by making it possible to disable this behaviour with a
preprocessor define. As "git-compat-util.h" is only included from
"system.h", and given that "system.h" is only ever included by headers
and code that are internal to the reftable library, we can set that
macro in this header without impacting anything else but the reftable
library.

A previous commit introduced a "promisor.acceptFromServer" configuration
variable with only "None" or "All" as valid values.
Let's introduce "KnownName" and "KnownUrl" as valid values for this
configuration option to give more choice to a client about which
promisor remotes it might accept among those that the server advertised.
In case of "KnownName", the client will accept promisor remotes which
are already configured on the client and have the same name as those
advertised by the client. This could be useful in a corporate setup
where servers and clients are trusted to not switch names and URLs, but
where some kind of control is still useful.
In case of "KnownUrl", the client will accept promisor remotes which
have both the same name and the same URL configured on the client as the
name and URL advertised by the server. This is the most secure option,
so it should be used if possible.

When a server S knows that some objects from a repository are available
from a promisor remote X, S might want to suggest to a client C cloning
or fetching the repo from S that C may use X directly instead of S for
these objects.
Note that this could happen both in the case S itself doesn't have the
objects and borrows them from X, and in the case S has the objects but
knows that X is better connected to the world (e.g., it is in a
$LARGEINTERNETCOMPANY datacenter with petabit/s backbone connections)
than S. Implementation of the latter case, which would require S to
omit in its response the objects available on X, is left for future
improvement though.
Then C might or might not, want to get the objects from X. If S and C
can agree on C using X directly, S can then omit objects that can be
obtained from X when answering C's request.
To allow S and C to agree and let each other know about C using X or
not, let's introduce a new "promisor-remote" capability in the
protocol v2, as well as a few new configuration variables:
- "promisor.advertise" on the server side, and:
- "promisor.acceptFromServer" on the client side.
By default, or if "promisor.advertise" is set to 'false', a server S will
not advertise the "promisor-remote" capability.
If S doesn't advertise the "promisor-remote" capability, then a client C
replying to S shouldn't advertise the "promisor-remote" capability
either.
If "promisor.advertise" is set to 'true', S will advertise its promisor
remotes with a string like:
promisor-remote=<pr-info>[;<pr-info>]...
where each <pr-info> element contains information about a single
promisor remote in the form:
name=<pr-name>[,url=<pr-url>]
where <pr-name> is the urlencoded name of a promisor remote and
<pr-url> is the urlencoded URL of the promisor remote named <pr-name>.
For now, the URL is passed in addition to the name. In the future, it
might be possible to pass other information like a filter-spec that the
client may use when cloning from S, or a token that the client may use
when retrieving objects from X.
It is C's responsibility to arrange how it can reach X though, so pieces
of information that are usually outside Git's concern, like proxy
configuration, must not be distributed over this protocol.
It might also be possible in the future for "promisor.advertise" to have
other values. For example a value like "onlyName" could prevent S from
advertising URLs, which could help in case C should use a different URL
for X than the URL S is using. (The URL S is using might be an internal
one on the server side for example.)
By default or if "promisor.acceptFromServer" is set to "None", C will
not accept to use the promisor remotes that might have been advertised
by S. In this case, C will not advertise any "promisor-remote"
capability in its reply to S.
If "promisor.acceptFromServer" is set to "All" and S advertised some
promisor remotes, then on the contrary, C will accept to use all the
promisor remotes that S advertised and C will reply with a string like:
promisor-remote=<pr-name>[;<pr-name>]...
where the <pr-name> elements are the urlencoded names of all the
promisor remotes S advertised.
In a following commit, other values for "promisor.acceptFromServer" will
be implemented, so that C will be able to decide the promisor remotes it
accepts depending on the name and URL it received from S. So even if
that name and URL information is not used much right now, it will be
needed soon.

The reftable library includes "git-compat-util.h" in order to get a
POSIX-like programming environment that papers over various differences
between platforms. The header also brings with it a couple of helpers
specific to the Git codebase though, and over time we have started to
use these helpers in the reftable library, as well.
This makes it very hard to use the reftable library as a standalone
library without the rest of the Git codebase, so other libraries like
e.g. libgit2 cannot easily use it. But now that we have removed all
calls to Git-specific functionality and have split out "compat/posix.h"
as a separate header we can address this.
Stop including "git-compat-util.h" and instead include "compat/posix.h"
to finalize the decoupling of the reftable library from the rest of the
Git codebase. The only bits which remain specific to Git are "system.h"
and "system.c", which projects will have to provide.

- Providing a POSIX-like interface even on platforms that aren't
POSIX-compliant.
- Providing low-level functionality that is specific to Git.
This intermixing is a bit of a problem for the reftable library as we
don't want to recreate the POSIX-like interface there. But neither do we
want to pull in the Git-specific functionality, as it is otherwise quite
easy to start depending on the Git codebase again.

Some code from "builtin/bugreport.c" uses uname(2) to get system
information.
Let's refactor this code into a new get_uname_info() function, so
that we can reuse it in a following commit.

The git_user_agent_sanitized() function performs some sanitizing to
avoid special characters being sent over the line and possibly messing
up with the protocol or with the parsing on the other side.
Let's extract this sanitizing into a new redact_non_printables() function,
as we will want to reuse it in a following patch.
For now the new redact_non_printables() function is still static as
it's only needed locally.
While at it, let's use strbuf_detach() to explicitly detach the string
contained by the 'buf' strbuf.

Since the isprint() function checks for printable characters, let's
replace the existing hardcoded ASCII checks with it. However, since
the original checks also handled spaces, we need to account for spaces
explicitly in the new check.

Explicitly set the default goal at the very top of various makefiles.
This is already present in some makefiles, but not all of them.
In particular, this corrects a regression introduced in a38edab7c8
(Makefile: generate doc versions via GIT-VERSION-GEN, 2024-12-06). That
commit added some config files as build targets for the Documentation
directory, and put the target configuration in a sensible place.
Unfortunately, that sensible place was above any other build target
definitions, meaning the default goal changed to being those
configuration files only, rather than the HTML and man page
documentation.

Code clean-up.
* kn/reflog-migration-fix-followup:
reftable: prevent 'update_index' changes after adding records
refs: use 'uint64_t' for 'ref_update.index'
refs: mark `ref_transaction_update_reflog()` as static
Fetching into a bare repository incorrectly assumed it always used
a mirror layout when deciding to update remote-tracking HEAD, which
has been corrected.
* bf/fetch-set-head-fix:
fetch set_head: fix non-mirror remotes in bare repositories
fetch set_head: refactor to use remote directly
Going into a secondary worktree and asking "is the main worktree
bare?" did not work correctly when per-worktree configuration
option was in use, which has been corrected.
* op/worktree-is-main-bare-fix:
worktree: detect from secondary worktree if main worktree is bare
"git clone" learned to make a shallow clone for a single commit
that is not necessarily be at the tip of any branch.
* tc/clone-single-revision:
builtin/clone: teach git-clone(1) the --revision= option
parse-options: introduce die_for_incompatible_opt2()
clone: introduce struct clone_opts in builtin/clone.c
clone: add tags refspec earlier to fetch refspec
clone: refactor wanted_peer_refs()
clone: make it possible to specify --tags
clone: cut down on global variables in clone.c
