"git mergetool" feeds three versions (base, local and remote) of
a conflicted path unmodified. The command learned to optionally
prepare these files with unconflicted parts already resolved.
* sh/mergetool-hideresolved:
mergetool: add per-tool support and overrides for the hideResolved flag
mergetool: break setup_tool out into separate initialization function
mergetool: add hideResolved configuration
Even though invocations of "die()" were logged to the trace2
system, "BUG()"s were not, which has been corrected.
* jt/trace2-BUG:
usage: trace2 BUG() invocations
die() messages are traced in trace2, but BUG() messages are not. Anyone
tracking die() messages would have even more reason to track BUG().
Therefore, write to trace2 when BUG() is invoked.

Add a per-tool override flag so that users may enable the flag for one
tool and disable it for another by setting
`mergetool.<tool>.hideResolved` to `false`.
In addition, the author or maintainer of a mergetool may optionally
override the default `hideResolved` value for that mergetool. If the
`mergetools/<tool>` shell script contains a `hide_resolved_enabled`
function it will be called when the mergetool is invoked and the return
value will be used as the default for the `hideResolved` flag.
hide_resolved_enabled () {
return 1
}
Disabling may be desirable if the mergetool wants or needs access to the
original, unmodified 'LOCAL' and 'REMOTE' versions of the conflicted
file. For example:
- A tool may use a custom conflict resolution algorithm and prefer to
ignore the results of Git's conflict resolution.
- A tool may want to visually compare/constrast the version of the file
from before the merge (saved to 'LOCAL', 'REMOTE', and 'BASE') with
Git's conflict resolution results (saved to 'MERGED').

This is preparation for the following commit where we need to source the
mergetool shell script to look for overrides before `run_merge_tool` is
called. Previously `run_merge_tool` both sourced that script and invoked
the mergetool.
In the case of the following commit, we need the result of the
`hide_resolved` override, if present, before we actually run
`run_merge_tool`.
The new `initialize_merge_tool` wrapper is exposed and documented as
a public interface for consistency with the existing `run_merge_tool`
which is also public. Although `setup_tool` could instead be exposed
directly, the related `setup_user_tool` would probably also want to be
elevated to match and this felt the cleanest to me.

The purpose of a mergetool is to help the user resolve any conflicts
that Git cannot automatically resolve. If there is a conflict that must
be resolved manually Git will write a file named MERGED which contains
everything Git was able to resolve by itself and also everything that it
was not able to resolve wrapped in conflict markers.
One way to think of MERGED is as a two- or three-way diff. If each
"side" of the conflict markers is separately extracted an external tool
can represent those conflicts as a side-by-side diff.
However many mergetools instead diff LOCAL and REMOTE both of which
contain versions of the file from before the merge. Since the conflicts
Git resolved automatically are not present it forces the user to
manually re-resolve those conflicts. Some mergetools also show MERGED
but often only for reference and not as the focal point to resolve the
conflicts.
This adds a `mergetool.hideResolved` flag that will overwrite LOCAL and
REMOTE with each corresponding "side" of a conflicted file and thus hide
all conflicts that Git was able to resolve itself. Overwriting these
files will immediately benefit any mergetool that uses them without
requiring any changes to the tool.
No adverse effects were noted in a small survey of popular mergetools[1]
so this behavior defaults to `true`. However it can be globally disabled
by setting `mergetool.hideResolved` to `false`.

In the `SPECIFYING RANGES` section of gitrevisions[7], two ways are
described to specify commit ranges that `range-diff` does not yet
accept: "<commit>^!" and "<commit>^-<n>".
Let's accept them, by parsing them via the revision machinery and
looking for at least one interesting and one uninteresting revision in
the resulting `pending` array.
This also finally lets us reject arguments that _do_ contain `..` but
are not actually ranges, e.g. `HEAD^{/do.. match this}`.

When comparing commit ranges, one is frequently interested only in one
side, such as asking the question "Has this patch that I submitted to
the Git mailing list been applied?": one would only care about the part
of the output that corresponds to the commits in a local branch.
To make that possible, imitate the `git rev-list` options `--left-only`
and `--right-only`.

It is actually only the `output()` function that uses those diffopts. By
moving the diffopt initialization down into that function, it is
encapsulated better.
Incidentally, it will also make it easier to implement the `--left-only`
and `--right-only` options in `git range-diff` because the `output()`
function is now receiving all range-diff options as a parameter, not
just the diffopts.

When commands are started from a subdirectory, they may have to
compare the path to the subdirectory (called prefix and found out
from $(pwd)) with the tracked paths. On macOS, $(pwd) and
readdir() yield decomposed path, while the tracked paths are
usually normalized to the precomposed form, causing mismatch. This
has been fixed by taking the same approach used to normalize the
command line arguments.
