This is sort of slow because it's called hundreds of times.
We used to have a cache, introduced in ad9b4290e, but it was removed
in fee5a9125a because it had
false-positives.
So what we do, because the issue is that this is called hundreds of
times per-commandline, we cache it keyed on the commandline.
This speeds up `complete -C'git sta'` by a factor of 2.3x.
Commit ad9b4290e optimized git completions by adding a completion that would
run on every completion request, which allows to precompute data used by
other completion entries. Unfortunately, the completion entry is not run
when the commandline contains a flag like `git -C`. If we didn't
already load git.fish, we'd error. Additionally, we got false positive
completions for `git diff -c`.
So this hack was a very bad idea. We should optimize in another way.
Git's pathspec system is kind of annoying:
> A pathspec that begins with a colon : has special meaning. In the short form, the leading colon : is followed by zero or more "magic signature" letters (which optionally is terminated by another colon :), and the remainder is the pattern to match against the path. The "magic signature" consists of ASCII symbols that are neither alphanumeric, glob, regex special characters nor colon. The optional colon that terminates the "magic signature" can be omitted if the pattern begins with a character that does not belong to "magic signature" symbol set and is not a colon.
So if we complete `:/foo`, that "works" because "f" is alphanumeric
and so the "/" is the only magic character here.
If, however the filename starts with a magic character, that's used as
a magic signature.
So we do what the docs say and terminate the magic signature after the
"/" (which means "from the repo root").
Fixes#9004
This makes it so
1. The informative status can work without showing untracked
files (previously it was disabled if bash.showUntrackedFiles was
false)
2. If untrackedfiles isn't explicitly enabled, we use -uno, so git
doesn't have to scan all the files.
In a large repository (like the FreeBSD ports repo), this can improve
performance by a factor of 5 or up.
When switching this to use `git status`, I neglected to use the
correct definition of what a "dirty" and a "staged" change is.
So this now showed already staged files still as "dirty".
Fixes#8986
fish_git_prompt may run certain git commands which may invoke certain
external programs as specified `.git/config`. Prevent this by suppressing
certain git config options.
Fixes#7926.
Also switches the default status order for non-informative to the informative one:
stagedstate invalidstate dirtystate untrackedfiles stashstate
instead of
dirty staged stash untracked
Apparently the grep on FreeBSD doesn't do \s or \t. Since we're
looking for an actual tab, just give it an actual tab.

Prior to this change, the checks/git.fish test would fail if run from a
git interactive rebase (such as via `git rebase -i --exec 'ninja test'`),
because git itself would inject stuff into the environment. Teach the git
test how to clean up its environment first before running.
This makes the fish_git_prompt variable handlers kick in, meaning we
see the informative chars.
The big question here is what happens if there's a non-UTF-8 locale in
the test.
Theoretically we set LC_CTYPE, but.....
