Vincent Ambo f4609b896f merge(3p/git): Merge git subtree at v2.29.2
This also bumps the stable nixpkgs to 20.09 as of 2020-11-21, because
there is some breakage in the git build related to the netrc
credentials helper which someone has taken care of in nixpkgs.

The stable channel is not used for anything other than git, so this
should be fine.

/**
* gitattributes mechanism gives a uniform way to associate various attributes
* to set of paths.
*
*
* Querying Specific Attributes
* ----------------------------
*
* - Prepare `struct attr_check` using attr_check_initl() function, enumerating
* the names of attributes whose values you are interested in, terminated with
* a NULL pointer. Alternatively, an empty `struct attr_check` can be
* prepared by calling `attr_check_alloc()` function and then attributes you
* want to ask about can be added to it with `attr_check_append()` function.
*
* - Call `git_check_attr()` to check the attributes for the path.
*
* - Inspect `attr_check` structure to see how each of the attribute in the
* array is defined for the path.
*
*
* Example
* -------
*
* To see how attributes "crlf" and "ident" are set for different paths.
*
* - Prepare a `struct attr_check` with two elements (because we are checking
* two attributes):
*
* ------------
* static struct attr_check *check;
* static void setup_check(void)
* {
* if (check)
* return; // already done
* check = attr_check_initl("crlf", "ident", NULL);
* }
* ------------
*
* - Call `git_check_attr()` with the prepared `struct attr_check`:
*
* ------------
* const char *path;
*
* setup_check();
* git_check_attr(path, check);
* ------------
*
* - Act on `.value` member of the result, left in `check->items[]`:
*
* ------------
* const char *value = check->items[0].value;
*
* if (ATTR_TRUE(value)) {
* The attribute is Set, by listing only the name of the
* attribute in the gitattributes file for the path.
* } else if (ATTR_FALSE(value)) {
* The attribute is Unset, by listing the name of the
* attribute prefixed with a dash - for the path.
* } else if (ATTR_UNSET(value)) {
* The attribute is neither set nor unset for the path.
* } else if (!strcmp(value, "input")) {
* If none of ATTR_TRUE(), ATTR_FALSE(), or ATTR_UNSET() is
* true, the value is a string set in the gitattributes
* file for the path by saying "attr=value".
* } else if (... other check using value as string ...) {
* ...
* }
* ------------
*
* To see how attributes in argv[] are set for different paths, only
* the first step in the above would be different.
*
* ------------
* static struct attr_check *check;
* static void setup_check(const char **argv)
* {
* check = attr_check_alloc();
* while (*argv) {
* struct git_attr *attr = git_attr(*argv);
* attr_check_append(check, attr);
* argv++;
* }
* }
* ------------
*
*
* Querying All Attributes
* -----------------------
*
* To get the values of all attributes associated with a file:
*
* - Prepare an empty `attr_check` structure by calling `attr_check_alloc()`.
*
* - Call `git_all_attrs()`, which populates the `attr_check` with the
* attributes attached to the path.
*
* - Iterate over the `attr_check.items[]` array to examine the attribute
* names and values. The name of the attribute described by an
* `attr_check.items[]` object can be retrieved via
* `git_attr_name(check->items[i].attr)`. (Please note that no items will be
* returned for unset attributes, so `ATTR_UNSET()` will return false for all
* returned `attr_check.items[]` objects.)
*
* - Free the `attr_check` struct by calling `attr_check_free()`.
