$GIT_DIR may in some cases be normalized with all symlinks resolved
while "gitdir" path expansion in the pattern does not receive the
same treatment, leading to incorrect mismatch.  This has been fixed.

* nd/conditional-config-include:
  config: resolve symlinks in conditional include's patterns
  path.c: and an option to call real_path() in expand_user_path()

The "submodule" specific field in the ref_store structure is
replaced with a more generic "gitdir" that can later be used also
when dealing with ref_store that represents the set of refs visible
from the other worktrees.

* nd/files-backend-git-dir: (28 commits)
  refs.h: add a note about sorting order of for_each_ref_*
  t1406: new tests for submodule ref store
  t1405: some basic tests on main ref store
  t/helper: add test-ref-store to test ref-store functions
  refs: delete pack_refs() in favor of refs_pack_refs()
  files-backend: avoid ref api targeting main ref store
  refs: new transaction related ref-store api
  refs: add new ref-store api
  refs: rename get_ref_store() to get_submodule_ref_store() and make it public
  files-backend: replace submodule_allowed check in files_downcast()
  refs: move submodule code out of files-backend.c
  path.c: move some code out of strbuf_git_path_submodule()
  refs.c: make get_main_ref_store() public and use it
  refs.c: kill register_ref_store(), add register_submodule_ref_store()
  refs.c: flatten get_ref_store() a bit
  refs: rename lookup_ref_store() to lookup_submodule_ref_store()
  refs.c: introduce get_main_ref_store()
  files-backend: remove the use of git_path()
  files-backend: add and use files_ref_path()
  files-backend: add and use files_reflog_path()
  ...

In the next patch we need the ability to expand '~' to
real_path($HOME). But we can't do that from outside because '~' is part
of a pattern, not a true path. Add an option to expand_user_path() to do
so.

refs is learning to avoid path rewriting that is done by
strbuf_git_path_submodule(). Factor out this code so it could be reused
by refs_* functions.

We already have xdg_config_home to format paths relative to
XDG_CONFIG_HOME. Let's provide a similar function xdg_cache_home to do
the same for paths relative to XDG_CACHE_HOME.

A pathname that begins with "//" or "\\" on Windows is special but
path normalization logic was unaware of it.

* js/normalize-path-copy-ceil:
  normalize_path_copy(): fix pushing to //server/share/dir on Windows

normalize_path_copy() is not prepared to keep the double-slash of a
//server/share/dir kind of path, but treats it like a regular POSIX
style path and transforms it to /server/share/dir.

The bug manifests when 'git push //server/share/dir master' is run,
because tmp_objdir_add_as_alternate() uses the path in normalized
form when it registers the quarantine object database via
link_alt_odb_entries(). Needless to say that the directory cannot be
accessed using the wrongly normalized path.

Fix it by skipping all of the root part, not just a potential drive
prefix. offset_1st_component takes care of this, see the
implementation in compat/mingw.c::mingw_offset_1st_component().

The code that we have used for the past 10+ years to cycle
4-element ring buffers turns out to be not quite portable in
theoretical world.

* rs/ring-buffer-wraparound:
  hex: make wraparound of the index into ring-buffer explicit

Overflow is defined for unsigned integers, but not for signed ones.

We could make the ring-buffer index in sha1_to_hex() and
get_pathname() unsigned to be on the safe side to resolve this, but
let's make it explicit that we are wrapping around at whatever the
number of elements the ring-buffer has.  The compiler is smart enough
to turn modulus into bitmask for these codepaths that use
ring-buffers of a size that is a power of 2.

The "git diff --submodule={short,log}" mechanism has been enhanced
to allow "--submodule=diff" to show the patch between the submodule
commits bound to the superproject.

* jk/diff-submodule-diff-inline:
  diff: teach diff to display submodule difference with an inline diff
  submodule: refactor show_submodule_summary with helper function
  submodule: convert show_submodule_summary to use struct object_id *
  allow do_submodule_path to work even if submodule isn't checked out
  diff: prepare for additional submodule formats
  graph: add support for --line-prefix on all graph-aware output
  diff.c: remove output_prefix_length field
  cache: add empty_tree_oid object and helper function
