The existing fetch.fsckObjects and transfer.fsckObjects configurations
were not fully applied to bundle-involved fetches, including direct
bundle fetches and bundle-uri enabled fetches. Furthermore, there was no
object verification support for unbundle.
This commit extends object verification support in `bundle.c:unbundle`
by adding the `VERIFY_BUNDLE_FSCK` option to `verify_bundle_flags`. When
this option is enabled, we append the `--fsck-objects` flag to
`git-index-pack`.
The `VERIFY_BUNDLE_FSCK` option is now used by bundle-involved fetches,
where we use `fetch-pack.c:fetch_pack_fsck_objects` to determine whether
to enable this option for `bundle.c:unbundle`, specifically in:
- `transport.c:fetch_refs_from_bundle` for direct bundle fetches.
- `bundle-uri.c:unbundle_from_file` for bundle-uri enabled fetches.
This addition ensures a consistent logic for object verification during
fetches. Tests have been added to confirm functionality in the scenarios
mentioned above.

Currently, we can use "transfer.fsckObjects" and the more specific
"fetch.fsckObjects" to control checks for broken objects in received
packs during fetches. However, these configurations were only
acknowledged by `fetch-pack.c:get_pack` and did not take effect in
direct bundle fetches or fetches with _bundle-uri_ enabled.
This commit exposes the fetch-then-transfer configuration logic by
adding a new function `fetch_pack_fsck_objects` in fetch-pack.h. This
new function is used to replace the assignment for `fsck_objects` in
`fetch-pack.c:get_pack`. In the next commit, this function will also be
used to extend fsck support for bundle-involved fetches.

When using the bundle-uri mechanism with a bundle list containing
multiple interrelated bundles, we encountered a bug where tips from
downloaded bundles were not discovered, thus resulting in rather slow
clones. This was particularly problematic when employing the
"creationTokens" heuristic.
To reproduce this issue, consider a repository with a single branch
"main" pointing to commit "A". Firstly, create a base bundle with:
git bundle create base.bundle main
Then, add a new commit "B" on top of "A", and create an incremental
bundle for "main":
git bundle create incr.bundle A..main
Now, generate a bundle list with the following content:
[bundle]
version = 1
mode = all
heuristic = creationToken
[bundle "base"]
uri = base.bundle
creationToken = 1
[bundle "incr"]
uri = incr.bundle
creationToken = 2
A fresh clone with the bundle list above should result in a reference
"refs/bundles/main" pointing to "B" in the new repository. However, git
would still download everything from the server, as if it had fetched
nothing locally.
So why the "refs/bundles/main" is not discovered? After some digging I
found that:
1. Bundles in bundle list are downloaded to local files via
`bundle-uri.c:download_bundle_list` or via
`bundle-uri.c:fetch_bundles_by_token` for the "creationToken"
heuristic.
2. Each bundle is unbundled via `bundle-uri.c:unbundle_from_file`, which
is called by `bundle-uri.c:unbundle_all_bundles` or called within
`bundle-uri.c:fetch_bundles_by_token` for the "creationToken"
heuristic.
3. To get all prerequisites of the bundle, the bundle header is read
inside `bundle-uri.c:unbundle_from_file` to by calling
`bundle.c:read_bundle_header`.
4. Then it calls `bundle.c:unbundle`, which calls
`bundle.c:verify_bundle` to ensure the repository contains all the
prerequisites.
5. `bundle.c:verify_bundle` calls `parse_object`, which eventually
invokes `packfile.c:prepare_packed_git` or
`packfile.c:reprepare_packed_git`, filling
`raw_object_store->packed_git` and setting `packed_git_initialized`.
6. If `bundle.c:unbundle` succeeds, it writes refs via
`refs.c:refs_update_ref` with `REF_SKIP_OID_VERIFICATION` set. Here
bundle refs which can target arbitrary objects are written to the
repository.
7. Finally, in `fetch-pack.c:do_fetch_pack_v2`, the functions
`fetch-pack.c:mark_complete_and_common_ref` and
`fetch-pack.c:mark_tips` are called with `OBJECT_INFO_QUICK` set to
find local tips for negotiation. The `OBJECT_INFO_QUICK` flag
prevents `packfile.c:reprepare_packed_git` from being called,
resulting in failures to parse OIDs that reside only in the latest
bundle.
In the example above, when unbunding "incr.bundle", "base.pack" is added
to `packed_git` due to prerequisites verification. However, "B" cannot
be found for negotiation because it exists in "incr.pack", which is not
included in `packed_git`.
Fix the bug by removing `REF_SKIP_OID_VERIFICATION` flag when writing
bundle refs. When `refs.c:refs_update_ref` is called to write the
corresponding bundle refs, it triggers `refs.c:ref_transaction_commit`.
This, in turn, invokes `refs.c:ref_transaction_prepare`, which calls
`transaction_prepare` of the refs storage backend. For files backend, it
is `files-backend.c:files_transaction_prepare`, and for reftable
backend, it is `reftable-backend.c:reftable_be_transaction_prepare`.
Both functions eventually call `object.c:parse_object`, which can invoke
`packfile.c:reprepare_packed_git` to refresh `packed_git`. This ensures
that bundle refs point to valid objects and that all tips from bundle
refs are correctly parsed during subsequent negotiations.
A set of negotiation-related tests for cloning with bundle-uri has been
included to demonstrate that downloaded bundles are utilized to
accelerate fetching.
Additionally, another test has been added to show that bundles with
incorrect headers, where refs point to non-existent objects, do not
result in any bundle refs being created in the repository.

This adds a trace point in start_command so we can see the full
command invocation without having to resort to strace/code inspection.
For example:
$ GIT_TRACE=1 git test foo
git.c:755 trace: exec: git-test foo
run-command.c:657 trace: run_command: git-test foo
run-command.c:657 trace: run_command: 'echo $*' foo
run-command.c:749 trace: start_command: /bin/sh -c 'echo $* "$@"' 'echo $*' foo
Prior changes have made the documentation around the internals of the
alias command execution clearer, but I have still found this detailed
view of the aliased command being run helpful for debugging purposes.
A test case is added to ensure the full command output is present in

not work well on macOS due to its broken "mv", which has been

* Unbreak CI jobs so that we do not attempt to use Python 2 that has

* Git 2.43 started using the tree of HEAD as the source of attributes
in a bare repository, which has severe performance implications.
For now, revert the change, without ripping out a more explicit

* Windows CI running in GitHub Actions started complaining about the
