Jeff King e76eec3554 ci: allow per-branch config for GitHub Actions
Depending on the workflows of individual developers, it can either be
convenient or annoying that our GitHub Actions CI jobs are run on every
branch. As an example of annoying: if you carry many half-finished
work-in-progress branches and rebase them frequently against master,
you'd get tons of failure reports that aren't interesting (not to
mention the wasted CPU).

This commit adds a new job which checks a special branch within the
repository for CI config, and then runs a shell script it finds there to
decide whether to skip the rest of the tests. The default will continue
to run tests for all refs if that branch or script is missing.

There have been a few alternatives discussed:

One option is to carry information in the commit itself about whether it
should be tested, either in the tree itself (changing the workflow YAML
file) or in the commit message (a "[skip ci]" flag or similar). But
these are frustrating and error-prone to use:

  - you have to manually apply them to each branch that you want to mark

  - it's easy for them to leak into other workflows, like emailing patches

We could likewise try to get some information from the branch name. But
that leads to debates about whether the default should be "off" or "on",
and overriding still ends up somewhat awkward. If we default to "on",
you have to remember to name your branches appropriately to skip CI. And
if "off", you end up having to contort your branch names or duplicate
your pushes with an extra refspec.

By comparison, this commit's solution lets you specify your config once
and forget about it, and all of the data is off in its own ref, where it
can be changed by individual forks without touching the main tree.

There were a few design decisions that came out of on-list discussion.
I'll summarize here:

 - we could use GitHub's API to retrieve the config ref, rather than a
   real checkout (and then just operate on it via some javascript). We
   still have to spin up a VM and contact GitHub over the network from
   it either way, so it ends up not being much faster. I opted to go
   with shell to keep things similar to our other tools (and really
   could implement allow-refs in any language you want). This also makes
   it easy to test your script locally, and to modify it within the
   context of a normal git.git tree.

 - we could keep the well-known refname out of refs/heads/ to avoid
   cluttering the branch namespace. But that makes it awkward to
   manipulate. By contrast, you can just "git checkout ci-config" to
   make changes.

 - we could assume the ci-config ref has nothing in it except config
   (i.e., a branch unrelated to the rest of git.git). But dealing with
   orphan branches is awkward. Instead, we'll do our best to efficiently
   check out only the ci/config directory using a shallow partial clone,
   which allows your ci-config branch to be just a normal branch, with
   your config changes on top.

 - we could provide a simpler interface, like a static list of ref
   patterns. But we can't get out of spinning up a whole VM anyway, so
   we might as well use that feature to make the config as flexible as
   possible. If we add more config, we should be able to reuse our
   partial-clone to set more outputs.

Git - fast, scalable, distributed revision control system

Git is a fast, scalable, distributed revision control system with an unusually rich command set that provides both high-level operations and full access to internals.

Git is an Open Source project covered by the GNU General Public License version 2 (some parts of it are under different licenses, compatible with the GPLv2). It was originally written by Linus Torvalds with help of a group of hackers around the net.

Please read the file INSTALL for installation instructions.

Many Git online resources are accessible from https://git-scm.com/ including full documentation and Git related tools.

See Documentation/gittutorial.txt to get started, then see Documentation/giteveryday.txt for a useful minimum set of commands, and Documentation/git-<commandname>.txt for documentation of each command. If git has been correctly installed, then the tutorial can also be read with man gittutorial or git help tutorial, and the documentation of each command with man git-<commandname> or git help <commandname>.

CVS users may also want to read Documentation/gitcvs-migration.txt (man gitcvs-migration or git help cvs-migration if git is installed).

The user discussion and development of Git take place on the Git mailing list -- everyone is welcome to post bug reports, feature requests, comments and patches to git@vger.kernel.org (read Documentation/SubmittingPatches for instructions on patch submission). To subscribe to the list, send an email with just "subscribe git" in the body to majordomo@vger.kernel.org. The mailing list archives are available at https://lore.kernel.org/git/, http://marc.info/?l=git and other archival sites.

Issues which are security relevant should be disclosed privately to the Git Security mailing list git-security@googlegroups.com.

The maintainer frequently sends the "What's cooking" reports that list the current status of various development topics to the mailing list. The discussion following them give a good reference for project status, development direction and remaining tasks.

The name "git" was given by Linus Torvalds when he wrote the very first version. He described the tool as "the stupid content tracker" and the name as (depending on your mood):

  • random three-letter combination that is pronounceable, and not actually used by any common UNIX command. The fact that it is a mispronunciation of "get" may or may not be relevant.
  • stupid. contemptible and despicable. simple. Take your pick from the dictionary of slang.
  • "global information tracker": you're in a good mood, and it actually works for you. Angels sing, and a light suddenly fills the room.
  • "goddamn idiotic truckload of sh*t": when it breaks
