Transaction to create objects (or not) is currently tied to the
repository, but in the future a repository can have multiple object
sources, which may have different transaction mechanisms. Make the
odb transaction API per object source.

ISO C23 redefines strchr and friends that tradiotionally took
a const pointer and returned a non-const pointer derived from it to
preserve constness (i.e., if you ask for a substring in a const
string, you get a const pointer to the substring). Update code
paths that used non-const pointer to receive their results that did
not have to be non-const to adjust.

When "git show-index" is run outside a repository, it silently
defaults to SHA-1; the tool now warns when this happens.

show-index: warn when falling back to SHA-1 outside a repository
Five commands include these options. Let’s link to the command so that
the curious user can learn more about what “rerere” is about.
It’s also better to consistently refer to things like
e.g. “git-subcommand(1)” over `git subcommand` or `subcommand`.
Also apply the same treatment to git-add(1).

A handful of code paths that started using batched ref update API
(after Git 2.51 or so) lost detailed error output, which have been
corrected.
* kn/ref-batch-output-error-reporting-fix:
fetch: delay user information post committing of transaction
receive-pack: utilize rejected ref error details
fetch: utilize rejected ref error details
update-ref: utilize rejected error details if available

When running outside a repository, git merge-file ignores the
merge.conflictStyle configuration variable entirely. Since the
function receives `repo` from the caller (which is NULL outside a
repository), and repo_config() falls back to reading system and user
configuration when passed NULL, pass `repo` to repo_config()
unconditionally.
Also document that merge.conflictStyle is honored.

The merge-ours built-in opens the index to compare it against HEAD.
The machinery used to do this (i.e. run_diff_index()) is capable of
working with a sparse index, but the start-up sequence of this
command does not take the necessary steps, so we end up expanding the
index fully before doing the comparison.
In order to convince sparse-index.c:is_sparse_index_allowed() to
return true, we need to:
- Read basic configuration with git_default_config so that global
variables like core_apply_sparse_checkout are populated.
merge-ours currently does not read configuration at all.
- Set command_requires_full_index to 0.
With that, the command can work without expanding the index fully
before doing its work.

The merge-ours built-in uses the `the_repository` global to access
the repository. The project is moving away from this global in favor
of the `repo` parameter that is passed to each built-in command.
Since merge-ours is registered with RUN_SETUP, `repo` is guaranteed
to be non-NULL and can be used directly.
Drop the USE_THE_REPOSITORY_VARIABLE macro and use `repo` throughout.
While at it, remove a stray double blank line between the #include
block and the usage string.
