In "git remote set-head", we can take varying numbers of arguments
depending on whether we saw the "-d" or "-a" options. But the first
argument is always the remote name.
The current code is somewhat awkward in that it conditionally handles
the remote name up-front like this:
if (argc)
remote = ...from argv[0]...
and then only later decides to bail if we do not have the right number
of arguments for the options we saw.
This makes it hard to figure out if "remote" is always set when it needs
to be. Both for humans, but also for compilers; with -Og, gcc complains
that "remote" can be accessed without being initialized (although this
is not true, as we'd always die with a usage message in that case).
Let's instead enforce the presence of the remote argument up front,
which fixes the compiler warning and is easier to understand. It does
mean duplicating the code to print a usage message, but it's a single
line.

When building with clang-22 and DEVELOPER=1 mode, this warning causes us
to fail compilation:
builtin/revert.c:114:13: error: default initialization of an object of type 'const char' leaves the object uninitialized [-Werror,-Wdefault-const-init-var-unsafe]
114 | const char sentinel_value;
| ^
The compiler is right that this code is a bit funny. We declare a const
value without an initializer. It cannot be assigned to because of the
const, but without an initializer it has no predictable value. So as a
variable it can never have any useful function, and if we tried to look
at it, we'd get undefined behavior.
But it does have a function. We never use its value, but rather use its
address as a sentinel value for some other variables:
const char *gpg_sign = &sentinel_value;
...maybe set gpg_sign via parse_options...
if (gpg_sign != &sentinel_value)
...we got a non-default value...
Normally we'd use NULL as a sentinel value for a pointer, but it doesn't
work here because we also want to detect --no-gpg-sign, which is marked
by setting the pointer to NULL. We need a separate "this was not
touched" value, which is what this sentinel variable gives us.
So the code is correct as-is, but the sentinel variable itself is funny
enough that it's understandable for a compiler warning to flag it. Let's
try to appease the compiler.
There are a few possible options:
1. Instead of a variable, we could just construct an artificial
sentinel address like "1", "-1", etc. I think these technically
fall afoul of the C standard (even if we do not access them, even
constructing invalid pointers is not always allowed). But it's also
something we do elsewhere, and even happens in some standard
interfaces (e.g., mmap()'s MMAP_FAILED value). It does involve some
annoying casts, though.
2. We can mark it as static. That gives it a definite value, but
perhaps makes people wonder if the static-ness is important, when
it's not.
3. We can just give it a value to shut the compiler up, even though
nobody cares about that value.
I went with (3) here as the smallest and most obvious change.

This patch compliments the previous commit, where builtins that use
add-patch infrastructure now respect diff.context and
diff.interHunkContext file configurations.
In particular, this patch helps users who don't want to set persistent
context configurations or just want a way to override them on a one-time
basis, by allowing the relevant builtins to accept corresponding command
line options that override the file configurations.
This mimics commands such as diff and log, which allow for both context
file configuration and command line overrides.

Adding a submodule at a path that previously hosted
another submodule (e.g., 'child') reuses the submodule
name derived from the path. If the original submodule
was only moved (e.g., to 'child_old') and not renamed,
this silently overwrites its configuration in .gitmodules.
This behavior loses user configuration and causes
confusion when the original submodule is expected
to remain intact. It assumes that the path-derived
name is always safe to reuse, even though the name
might still be in use elsewhere in the repository.
Teach module_add() to check if the computed submodule
name already exists in the repository's submodule config,
and if so, refuse the operation unless the user explicitly
renames the submodule or uses the --force option,
which will automatically generate a unique name by
appending a number (e.g., child1).

In "config.c" we host both the business logic to read and write config
files as well as the logic to parse specific Git-related variables. On
the one hand this is mixing concerns, but even more importantly it means
that we cannot easily remove the dependency on `the_repository` in our
config parsing logic.
Move the logic into "environment.c". This file is a grab bag of all
kinds of global state already, so it is quite a good fit. Furthermore,
it also hosts most of the global variables that we're parsing the config
values into, making this an even better fit.
Note that there is one hidden change: in `parse_fsync_components()` we
use an `int` to iterate through `ARRAY_SIZE(fsync_component_names)`. But
as -Wsign-compare warnings are enabled in this file this causes a
compiler warning. The issue is fixed by using a `size_t` instead.
This change allows us to drop the `USE_THE_REPOSITORY_VARIABLE`
declaration.

FLEX_ALLOC_MEM and inserts it into a linked list in the
reflog_expire_options structure. The entries in this list are never
freed, resulting in a leak in cmd_reflog_expire and the gc reflog expire
maintenance task:

Close this leak by adding a reflog_clear_expire_config() function which
iterates the linked list and frees its elements. Call it upon exit of
cmd_reflog_expire() and reflog_expire_condition().
Add a basic test which covers this leak. While at it, cover the
functionality from commit commit 3cb22b8efe (Per-ref reflog expiry
configuration, 2008-06-15). We've had this support for years, but lacked
any tests.

The comment is poorly phrased and it in't clear what it wanted to
say. Strongly discourage this broken pattern to be copied and
pasted to other code paths.
