Several tests use a pattern that writes to a temporary file like this:
printf "do something with %d\n" $(test_seq <count>) >tmpfile &&
git do-something --stdin <tmpfile
Other tests use test_seq's -f parameter, but still write to a temporary file:
test_seq -f "do something with %d" <count> >input &&
git do-something --stdin <input
Simplify both of these patterns to
test_seq -f "do something with %d" <count> |
git do-something --stdin

As the tests are all run in separate repositories, set the branch
name to "master" when creating the repository for the tests where
the result depends on the branch name. In order to make it easier to
change the branch name in the future a helper function is used. This
reduces the number of tests that depend on the default branch name
being "master" and removes the last instance of a test file using
"GIT_TEST_DEFAULT_INITIAL_BRANCH_NAME=master".

The "seq" tool has a "-f" option to produce printf-style formatted
lines. Let's teach our test_seq helper the same trick. This lets us get
rid of some shell loops in test snippets (which are particularly verbose
in our test suite because we have to "|| return 1" to keep the &&-chain
going).
This converts a few call-sites I found by grepping around the test
suite. A few notes on these:
- In "seq", the format specifier is a "%g" float. Since test_seq only
supports integers, I've kept the more natural "%d" (which is what
these call sites were using already).
- Like "seq", test_seq automatically adds a newline to the specified
format. This is what all callers are doing already except for t0021,
but there we do not care about the exact format. We are just trying
to printf a large number of bytes to a file. It's not worth
complicating other callers or adding an option to avoid the newline
in that caller.
- Most conversions are just replacing a shell loop (which does get rid
of an extra fork, since $() requires a subshell). In t0612 we can
replace an awk invocation, which I think makes the end result more
readable, as there's less quoting.
- In t7422 we can replace one loop, but sadly we have to leave the
loop directly above it. This is because that earlier loop wants to
include the seq value twice in the output, which test_seq does not
support (nor does regular seq). If you run:
test_seq -f "foo-%d %d" 10
the second "%d" will always be the empty string. You might naively
think that test_seq could add some extra arguments, like:
# 3 ought to be enough for anyone...
printf "$fmt\n" "$i "$i" $i"
but that just triggers printf to format multiple lines, one per
extra set of arguments.
So we'd have to actually parse the format string, figure out how
many "%" placeholders are there, and then feed it that many
instances of the sequence number. The complexity isn't worth it.

Overhaul of the reftable API.
* ps/reftable-api-revamp:
reftable/table: move printing logic into test helper
reftable/constants: make block types part of the public interface
reftable/table: introduce iterator for table blocks
reftable/table: add `reftable_table` to the public interface

reftable/block: make block iterators reseekable
reftable/block: store block pointer in the block iterator
reftable/block: create public interface for reading blocks

reftable/block: rename `block` to `block_data`
reftable/table: move reading block into block reader
reftable/block: simplify how we track restart points

reftable/reader: rename data structure to "table"
reftable: fix formatting of the license header

The logic to print individual blocks in a table is hosted in the
reftable library. This is only the case due to historical reasons though
because users of the library had no interfaces to read blocks one by
one. Otherwise, printing individual blocks has no place in the reftable
library given that the format will not be generic in the first place.
We have now grown a public interface to iterate through blocks contained
in a table, and thus we can finally move the logic to print them into
the test helper.
Move over the logic and refactor it accordingly. Note that the iterator
also trivially allows us to access index sections, which we previously
didn't print at all. This omission wasn't intentional though, so start
dumping those sections as well so that we can assert that indices are
written as expected.

A bunch of tests rely on Perl to print data in various different ways.
These usages fall into the following categories:
- Print data conditionally by matching patterns. These usecases can be
converted to use awk(1) rather easily.
- Print data repeatedly. These usecases can typically be converted to
use a combination of `test-tool genzeros` and sed(1).
- Print data in reverse. These usecases can be converted to use
awk(1) or `sort -r`.
Refactor the tests accordingly so that we can drop a couple of
PERL_TEST_HELPERS prerequisites.

In the early days of Git, Perl was used quite prominently throughout the
project. This has changed significantly as almost all of the executables
we ship nowadays have eventually been rewritten in C. Only a handful of
subsystems remain that require Perl:
- gitweb, a read-only web interface.
- A couple of scripts that allow importing repositories from GNU Arch,
CVS and Subversion.
- git-send-email(1), which can be used to send mails.
- git-request-pull(1), which is used to request somebody to pull from
a URL by sending an email.
- git-filter-branch(1), which uses Perl with the `--state-branch`
option. This command is typically recommended against nowadays in
favor of git-filter-repo(1).
- Our Perl bindings for Git.
- The netrc Git credential helper.
None of these subsystems can really be considered to be part of the
"core" of Git, and an installation without them is fully functional.
It is more likely than not that an end user wouldn't even notice that
any features are missing if those tools weren't installed. But while
Perl nowadays very much is an optional dependency of Git, there is a
significant limitation when Perl isn't available: developers cannot run
our test suite.
Preceding commits have started to lift this restriction by removing the
strict dependency on Perl in many central parts of the test library. But
there are still many tests that rely on small Perl helpers to do various
different things.
Introduce a new PERL_TEST_HELPERS prerequisite that guards all tests
that require Perl. This prerequisite is explicitly different than the
preexisting PERL prerequisite:
- PERL records whether or not features depending on the Perl
interpreter are built.
- PERL_TEST_HELPERS records whether or not a Perl interpreter is
available for our tests.
By having these two separate prerequisites we can thus distinguish
between tests that inherently depend on Perl because the underlying
feature does, and those tests that depend on Perl because the test
itself is using Perl.
Adapt all tests to set the PERL_TEST_HELPERS prerequisite as needed.

Besides the expected "ref" and "log" records, the reftable library also
writes "obj" records. These are basically a reverse mapping of object
IDs to their respective ref records so that it becomes efficient to
figure out which references point to a specific object. The motivation
for this data structure is the "uploadpack.allowTipSHA1InWant" config,
which allows a client to fetch any object by its hash that has a ref
pointing to it.
This reverse index is not used by Git at all though, and the expectation
is that most hosters nowadays use "uploadpack.allowAnySHA1InWant". It
may thus be preferable for many users to disable writing these optional
object indices altogether to safe some precious disk space.
Add a new config "reftable.indexObjects" that allows the user to disable
the object index altogether.

We're about to introduce new configs that will allow users to have more
control over how exactly reftables are written. To verify that these
configs are effective we will need to take a peak into the actual blocks
written by the reftable backend.
Introduce a new mode to the dumping logic that prints out the block
structure. This logic can be invoked via `test-tool dump-reftables -b`.
