let gotadmin find the repository automatically if invoked in a work tree

Move a small amount of code from worktree.c to a new file worktree_open.c, which contains everything required to open and close a work tree and inspect some of its basic parameters. This can be used by gotadmin. ok tracey

Fix mandoc HTML rendering for command aliases

Replace hand-rolled parentheses with the proper mdoc(7) macro, otherwise the closing ")" ends up inside the command description. Reported by Josh Rickmar, thanks!



Thomas Adam

switch branches during noop rebases

Always update to the specified branch even if the branch is already rebased (no commits needed to be rebased, and the branch does not need a fast forward). With the old behavior of erroring and staying on the current branch, I sometimes found myself ignoring the error message, treating it as information and assuming the branch update, and later on committing on top of origin/main instead of the main branch. feedback and ok stsp

try only 3 delta base candidates instead of 10 to speed up packing

Tests by kn, thomas_adam and myself made on various repositories indicate that 3 is a good choice. Tyring 10 deltas is much slower and does not result in significantly smaller pack files.

README: mention bison as a required component

Although configure.ac will for the presence of bison, the READMEs didn't say that was a required program. Patch from Carlos Torres

Thomas Adam

allow bad symlinks to survive a merge

Commands which perform merges will now install bad symlinks as symlinks in the work tree, instead of creating them as regular files. This means bad symlinks committed with 'got commit -S' (or Git) will be preserved. The decision to introduce a bad symlink is done at commit-time and merges should not forcefully reverse this decision. The cherrypick and backout commands require a manual commit step, and a merge result with bad symlinks will require use of 'got commit -S'. Additional testing by thomas adam
