We are preparing to integrate the path-walk API with some --filter options
in 'git pack-objects', but there is a subtle issue that is revealed when
those are put together and the test suite is run with
GIT_TEST_PACK_PATH_WALK=1.
When a filter reduces the set of requested objects, this results in
filtering out directly-requested objects, such as in the download of needed
blobs in a blobless partial clone.
The root cause is that the scan of pending objects in the path-walk API
respects the filters set in the path_walk_info instead of overriding them
for pending objects.
We can tell that a path is part of the directly-referenced objects if its
path name starts with '/' (other paths, including root trees never have this
starting character). Create a path_is_for_direct_objects() to make this
meaning clear, especially as we add more references in the future as we
integrate the path-walk API with partial clone filter options.

For simplifying automated translation of the documentation, it is better to
only present one term in each entry of a description list of options. This
is because most of these terms can automatically be marked as
notranslatable.
Also, due to portability issues, the script generate-configlist.sh can no
longer insert newlines in the output. However, the result is that it no
longer correctly handles multiple terms in a single entry of definition
lists.
As a result, we now check that these entries do not exist in the
documentation.

In preparation for allowing both the --shallow and --path-walk options
in the 'git pack-objects' builtin, create a new 'edge_aggressive' option
in the path-walk API. This option will help walk the boundary more
thoroughly and help avoid sending extra objects during fetches and
pushes.
The only use of the 'edge_hint_aggressive' option in the revision API is
within mark_edges_uninteresting(), which is usually called before
between prepare_revision_walk() and before visiting commits with
get_revision(). In prepare_revision_walk(), the UNINTERESTING commits
are walked until a boundary is found.

In order to more easily compute delta bases among objects that appear at
the exact same path, add a --path-walk option to 'git pack-objects'.
This option will use the path-walk API instead of the object walk given
by the revision machinery. Since objects will be provided in batches
representing a common path, those objects can be tested for delta bases
immediately instead of waiting for a sort of the full object list by
name-hash. This has multiple benefits, including avoiding collisions by
name-hash.
The objects marked as UNINTERESTING are included in these batches, so we
are guaranteeing some locality to find good delta bases.
After the individual passes are done on a per-path basis, the default
name-hash is used to find other opportunistic delta bases that did not
match exactly by the full path name.
The current implementation performs delta calculations while walking
objects, which is not ideal for a few reasons. First, this will cause
the "Enumerating objects" phase to be much longer than usual. Second, it
does not take advantage of threading during the path-scoped delta
calculations. Even with this lack of threading, the path-walk option is
sometimes faster than the usual approach. Future changes will refactor
this code to allow for threading, but that complexity is deferred until
later to keep this patch as simple as possible.
This new walk is incompatible with some features and is ignored by
others:
* Object filters are not currently integrated with the path-walk API,
such as sparse-checkout or tree depth. A blobless packfile could be
integrated easily, but that is deferred for later.
* Server-focused features such as delta islands, shallow packs, and
using a bitmap index are incompatible with the path-walk API.
* The path walk API is only compatible with the --revs option, not
taking object lists or pack lists over stdin. These alternative ways
to specify the objects currently ignores the --path-walk option
without even a warning.
Future changes will create performance tests that demonstrate the power
of this approach.

Lazy-loading missing files in a blobless clone on demand is costly
as it tends to be one-blob-at-a-time. "git backfill" is introduced
to help bulk-download necessary files beforehand.
* ds/backfill:
backfill: assume --sparse when sparse-checkout is enabled
backfill: add --sparse option
backfill: add --min-batch-size=<n> option
backfill: basic functionality and tests
backfill: add builtin boilerplate

All the documentation .txt files have been renamed to .adoc to help
content aware editors.
* bc/doc-adoc-not-txt:
Remove obsolete ".txt" extensions for AsciiDoc files
doc: use .adoc extension for AsciiDoc files
gitattributes: mark AsciiDoc files as LF-only
editorconfig: add .adoc extension
doc: update gitignore for .adoc extension
