0d6bb8b541 t3700: use test_grep helper for better diagnostics
Replace 'grep' and '! grep' invocations with 'test_grep' and
'test_grep !'. This provides better debugging output if tests fail
in the future, as 'test_grep' will automatically print the
contents of the file when a check fails.

While at it, update any remaining instances of 'grep' to 'test_grep'
that were missed in the previous versions to ensure that the entire
file is consistent with modern project style.

fc2ead0053 t3700: avoid suppressing git's exit code
Replace pipelines involving git commands with temporary files (actual)
to ensure that any crashes or unexpected exit codes from the git
commands are properly caught by the test suite. A simple pipeline
like 'git foo | grep bar' ignores the exit code of 'git', which
can hide regressions.

In cases where we were counting lines with 'wc -l' to ensure a
pattern was absent, simplify the logic to use '! grep' to avoid
subshells entirely.

2ef539bcee for-each-repo: work correctly in a worktree
When run in a worktree, the GIT_DIR directory is set in a different way
than in a typical repository. Show this by updating t0068 to include a
worktree and add a test that runs from that worktree. This requires
moving the repo.key config into a global config instead of the base test
repository's local config (demonstrating that it worked with
non-worktree Git repositories).

We need to be careful to unset the local Git environment variables and
let the child process rediscover them, while also reinstating those
variables in the parent process afterwards. Update run_command_on_repo()
to use the new sanitize_repo_env() helper method to erase these
environment variables.

During review of this bug fix, there were several incorrect patches
demonstrating different bad behaviors. Most of these are covered by
tests, when it is not too expensive to set it up. One case that would be
expensive to set up is the GIT_NO_REPLACE_OBJECTS environment variable,
but we trust that using sanitize_repo_env() will be sufficient to
capture these uncovered cases by using the common code for resetting
environment variables.

c5e62e1aa0 for-each-repo: test outside of repo context
The 'git for-each-repo' tool is frequently run outside of a repo context
in the real world. For example, it powers background maintenance.
Despite this typical case, we have not been testing it without a local
repository.

Update t0068 to stop creating a test repo and to use global config
everywhere. This has some subtle changes to test across the file.

This was noticed because an earlier attempt to remove the_repository
from builtin/for-each-repo.c did not catch a segmentation fault since
the passed 'repo' is NULL. This use of the_repository will need to stay
until we have a better way to handle config queries outside of a repo
context. Similar use still exists in builtin/config.c for the same
reason.

the option parsing callback eagerly resolves the OID via
repo_get_oid(), which reaches get_main_ref_store() and hits a BUG()

Check startup_info->have_repository before attempting to resolve the
OID, and return a user-friendly error instead.

41366e4677 fsmonitor-watchman: fix variable reference and remove redundant code
The is_work_tree_watched() function in fsmonitor-watchman.sample has
two bugs:

1. Wrong variable in error check: After calling watchman_clock(), the
   result is stored in $o, but the code checks $output->{error} instead
   of $o->{error}. This means errors from the clock command are silently
   ignored.

2. Double output violates protocol: When the retry path triggers (the
   directory wasn't initially watched), output_result() is called with
   the "/" flag, then launch_watchman() is called recursively which
   calls output_result() again. This outputs two clock tokens to stdout,
   but git's fsmonitor v2 protocol expects exactly one response.

Fix #1 by checking $o->{error} after watchman_clock().

Fix #2 by removing the recursive launch_watchman() call. The "/"
"everything is dirty" flag already tells git to do a full scan, and
git will call the hook again on the next invocation with a valid clock
token.

With the recursive call removed, the $retry guard is no longer needed
since it only existed to prevent infinite recursion. Remove it.

Apply the same fixes to the test helper scripts in t/t7519/.

064b869efc t4052: test for diffstat width when prefix contains ANSI escape codes
Add test checking the calculation of the diffstat display width when the
`line_prefix`, which is text that goes before the diffstat, contains
ANSI escape codes.

This situation happens, for example, when `git log --stat --graph` is
executed:
* `--stat` will create a diffstat for each commit
* `--graph` will stuff `line_prefix` with the graph portion of the log,
  which contains ANSI escape codes to color the text

6589294375 alias: treat empty subsection [alias ""] as plain [alias]
When git-config stores a key of the form alias..name, it records
it under an empty subsection ([alias ""]). The new subsection-aware
alias lookup would see a non-NULL but zero-length subsection and
fall into the subsection code path, where it required a "command"
key and thus silently ignored the entry.

Normalize an empty subsection to NULL before any further processing
so that entries stored this way continue to work as plain
case-insensitive aliases, matching the pre-subsection behaviour.

Users who relied on alias..name to create an alias literally named
".name" may want to migrate to subsection syntax, which looks less confusing:

    [alias ".name"]
        command = <value>

Add tests covering both the empty-subsection compatibility case and
the leading-dot alias via the new syntax.

3ea95ac9c5 status: add status.compareBranches config for multiple branch comparisons
Add a new configuration variable status.compareBranches that allows
users to specify a space-separated list of branch comparisons in
git status output.

Supported values:
- @{upstream} for the current branch's upstream tracking branch
- @{push} for the current branch's push destination

Any other value is ignored and a warning is shown.

When not configured, the default behavior is equivalent to setting
`status.compareBranches = @{upstream}`, preserving backward
compatibility.

The advice messages shown are context-aware:
- "git pull" advice is shown only when comparing against @{upstream}
- "git push" advice is shown only when comparing against @{push}
- Divergence advice is shown for upstream branch comparisons

This is useful for triangular workflows where the upstream tracking
branch differs from the push destination, allowing users to see their
status relative to both branches at once.

Example configuration:
    [status]
        compareBranches = @{upstream} @{push}
