The --type=<X> option for 'git config' has previously been defined using
macros, but using a typed enum is better for tracking the possible
values.
Move the definition up to make sure it is defined before a macro uses
some of its terms.
Update the initializer for config_display_options to explicitly set
'type' to TYPE_NONE even though this is implied by a zero value.
This assists in knowing that the switch statement added in the previous
change has a complete set of cases for a properly-valued enum.

Move the logic for formatting expiry date config values into a helper
method and use quiet parsing when needed.
Note that git_config_expiry_date() will show an error on a bad parse and
not die() like most other git_config...() parsers. Thus, we use
'quietly' here instead of 'gently'.
There is an unfortunate asymmetry in these two parsing methods, but we
need to treat a positive response from parse_expiry_date() as an error
or we will get incorrect values.
This updates the behavior of 'git config list --type=expiry-date' to be
quiet when attempting parsing on non-date values.

Previously, the --type=<X> argument to 'git config list' was ignored and
did nothing. Now, we add the use of format_config() to the
show_all_config() function so each key-value pair is attempted to be
parsed. This is our first use of the 'gently' parameter with a nonzero
value.
When listing multiple values, our initial settings for the output format
is different. Add a new init helper to specify the fact that keys should
be shown and also add the default delimiters as they were unset in some
cases.
Our intention is that if there is an error in parsing, then the row is
not output. This is necessary to avoid the caller needing to build their
own validator to understand the difference between valid, canonicalized
types and other raw string values. The raw values will always be
available to the user if they do not specify the --type=<X> option.
The current behavior is more complicated, including error messages on
bad parsing or potentially complete failure of the command. We add
tests at this point that demonstrate the current behavior so we can
witness the fix in future changes that parse these values quietly and
gently.
This is a change in behavior! We are starting to respect an option that
was previously ignored, leading to potential user confusion. This is
probably still a good option, since the --type argument did not change
behavior at all previously, so users can get the behavior they expect by
removing the --type argument or adding the --no-type argument.
t1300-config.sh is updated with the current behavior of this formatting
logic to justify the upcoming refactoring of format_config() that will
incrementally fix some of these cases to be more user-friendly.

The error message given by "git config set", when the variable
being updated has more than one values defined, used old style "git

have been corrected.
* rs/config-set-multi-error-message-fix:
config: fix suggestion for failed set of multi-valued option
The option help text given by "git config unset -h" described
the "--all" option to "replace", not "unset", multiple variables,
which has been corrected.
* rs/config-unset-opthelp-fix:
config: fix short help of unset flags
"git config get --path" segfaulted on an ":(optional)path" that
does not exist, which has been corrected.
* jc/optional-path:
config: really treat missing optional path as not configured
config: really pretend missing :(optional) value is not there
config: mark otherwise unused function as file-scope static
Earlier we added support for a value spelled as ":(optional)path"
for configuration variables whose values are of type "path", with
the documented semantics "if the path is missing, behave as if such
a variable definition is not even there."
This has worked OK for code paths that reads configuration files and
stores the configured value as a string, where NULL in such a string
is treated as if the setting is not there, left as the default.
However, there are other code paths that do not _ignore_ such NULL
values and misbehave. "git config get --path" is one of them.
When git_config_pathname() helper function finds that the value of
the variable is an optional path *and* the path is missing, it
leaves the destination pointer intact (which usually is left to
NULL) and returns 0 to signal a success. format_config() helper
however assumed that the destination pointer always gets a string,
which no longer is the case, and segfaulted.
Make sure that git_config_pathname() clears the destination pointer
in such a case, and teach format_config() to react to the condition
by returning 1 (which is different from 0 that is a normal success
and negative that is an error) to its callers. Adjust the callers
to react to this new return value that tells them to pretend as if
they did not even see this partcular <key, value> pair.

The use of "git config get" command to learn how ANSI color
sequence is for a particular type, e.g., "git config get
--type=color --default=reset no.such.thing", isn't very ergonomic.
* ps/config-get-color-fixes:
builtin/config: do not spawn pager when printing color codes
builtin/config: special-case retrieving colors without a key
builtin/config: do not die in `get_color()`
t1300: small style fixups
t1300: write test expectations in the test's body
With `git config get --type=color` the user asks us to parse a specific
configuration key and turn the value into an ANSI color escape sequence.
The printed string can then for example be used as part of shell scripts
to reuse the same colors as Git.
Right now though we set up the auto-pager, which means that the string
may be written to the pager instead of directly to the terminal. This
behaviour is problematic for two reasons:
- Color codes are meant for direct terminal output; writing them into
a pager does not seem like a sensible thing to do without additional
text.
- It is inconsistent with `git config --get-color`, which never uses a
pager, despite the fact that we claim `git config get --type=color`
to be a drop-in replacement in git-config(1).
Fix this by disabling the pager when outputting color sequences.

Our documentation for git-config(1) has a section where it explains how
to parse and use colors as Git would configure them. In order to get the
ANSI color escape sequence to reset the colors to normal we recommend
the following command:
$ git config get --type=color --default="reset" ""
This command is not supposed to parse any configuration keys. Instead,
it is expected to parse the "reset" default value and turn it into a
proper ANSI color escape sequence.
It was reported though [1] that this command doesn't work:
$ git config get --type=color --default="reset" ""
error: key does not contain a section:
This error was introduced in 4e51389000 (builtin/config: introduce "get"
subcommand, 2024-05-06), where we introduced the "get" subcommand to
retrieve configuration values. The preimage of that commit used `git
config --get-color "" "reset"` instead, which still works.
This use case is really quite specific to parsing colors, as it wouldn't
make sense to give git-config(1) a default value and an empty config key
only to return that default value unmodified. But with `--type=color` we
don't return the value directly; we instead parse the value into an ANSI
escape sequence.
As such, we can easily special-case this one use case:
- If the provided config key is empty;
- the user is asking for a color code; and
- the user has provided a default value,
then we call `get_color()` directly. Do so to make the documented
command work as expected.

The "git config --get-colorbool foo.bar" command not only digs in the
config to find the value of foo.bar, it evaluates the result using
want_color() to check the tty-ness of stdout.
But it stores the bool result of want_color() in the same git_colorbool
that we found in the config. This works in practice because the
git_colorbool enum is a superset of the bool values. But it is an oddity
from a type system perspective.
Let's instead store the result in a separate bool and use that.

We traditionally used "int" to store and pass around the values defined
by "enum git_colorbool" (which were originally just #define macros).
Using an int doesn't produce incorrect results, but using the actual
enum makes the intent of the code more clear.
It would be nice if the compiler could catch cases where we used the
enum and an int interchangeably, since it's very easy to accidentally
check the boolean true/false of a colorbool like:
if (branch_use_color)
This is wrong because GIT_COLOR_UNKNOWN and GIT_COLOR_AUTO evaluate to
true in C, even though we may ultimately decide not to use color. But C
is pretty happy to convert between ints and enums (even with various
-Wenum-* warnings). So this sadly doesn't protect us from such mistakes,
but it hopefully does make the code easier to read.

Long ago Git's decision to show color for a subsytem was stored in a
tri-state variable: it could be true (1), false (0), or unknown (-1).
But since daa0c3d971 (color: delay auto-color decision until point of
use, 2011-08-17) we want to carry around a new state, "auto", which
bases the decision on the tty-ness of stdout (rather than collapsing
that "auto" state to a true/false immediately).
That commit introduced a set of GIT_COLOR_* defines to represent each
state: UNKNOWN, ALWAYS, NEVER, and AUTO. But it only used the AUTO
value, and left alone code using bare 0/1/-1 values. And of course since
then we've grown many new spots that use those bare values.
Let's switch all of these to use the named constants. That should make
the code a bit easier to read, as it is more obvious that we're
representing a color decision.

While we expose macros for most of our different option types understood
by the "parse-options" subsystem, not every combination of fields that
has one as that would otherwise quickly lead to an explosion of macros.
Instead, we just initialize structures manually for those variants of
fields that don't have a macro.
Callsites that open-code these structure initialization don't use
designated initializers though and instead just provide values for each
of the fields that they want to initialize. This has three significant
downsides:
- Callsites need to specify all values up to the last field that they
care about. This often includes fields that should simply be left at
their default zero-initialized state, which adds distraction.
- Any reader not deeply familiar with the layout of the structure
has a hard time figuring out what the respective initializers mean.
- Reordering or introducing new fields in the middle of the structure
is impossible without adapting all callsites.
Convert all sites to instead use designated initializers, which we have
started using in our codebase quite a while ago. This allows us to skip
any default-initialized fields, gives the reader context by specifying
the field names and allows us to reorder or introduce new fields where
we want to.

Neither of these cases warrant a global variable at all. In the former
