<title>t1402: work around shell quoting issue on NetBSD</title>

The test fails for me on NetBSD 6.0.1 and reports:

	ok 1 - ref name '' is invalid
	ok 2 - ref name '/' is invalid
	ok 3 - ref name '/' is invalid with options --allow-onelevel
	ok 4 - ref name '/' is invalid with options --normalize
	error: bug in the test script: not 2 or 3 parameters to test-expect-success

The alleged bug is in this line:

	invalid_ref NOT_MINGW '/' '--allow-onelevel --normalize'

invalid_ref() constructs a test case description using its last argument,
but the shell seems to split it up into two pieces if it contains a
space.  Minimal test case:

	# on NetBSD with /bin/sh
	$ a() { echo $#-$1-$2; }
	$ t="x"; a "${t:+$t}"
	1-x-
	$ t="x y"; a "${t:+$t}"
	2-x-y
	$ t="x y"; a "${t:+x y}"
	1-x y-

	# and with bash
	$ t="x y"; a "${t:+$t}"
	1-x y-
	$ t="x y"; a "${t:+x y}"
	1-x y-

This may be a bug in the shell, but here's a simple workaround: Construct
the description string first and store it in a variable, and then use
that to call test_expect_success().

<title>t1402-check-ref-format: skip tests of refs beginning with slash on Windows</title>

Bash on Windows converts program arguments that look like absolute POSIX
paths to their Windows form, i.e., drive-letter-colon format. For this
reason, those tests in t1402 that check refs that begin with a slash do not
work as expected on Windows: valid_ref tests are doomed to fail, and
invalid_ref tests fail for the wrong reason (that there is a colon rather
than that they begin with a slash).

Skip these tests.

<title>Change check_refname_format() to reject unnormalized refnames</title>

Since much of the infrastructure does not work correctly with
unnormalized refnames, change check_refname_format() to reject them.

Similarly, change "git check-ref-format" to reject unnormalized
refnames by default.  But add an option --normalize, which causes "git
check-ref-format" to normalize the refname before checking its format,
and print the normalized refname.  This is exactly the behavior of the
old --print option, which is retained but deprecated.

<title>Do not allow ".lock" at the end of any refname component</title>

Allowing any refname component to end with ".lock" is looking for
trouble; for example,

    $ git br foo.lock/bar
    $ git br foo
    fatal: Unable to create '[...]/.git/refs/heads/foo.lock': File exists.

Therefore, do not allow any refname component to end with ".lock".

<title>Change check_ref_format() to take a flags argument</title>

Change check_ref_format() to take a flags argument that indicates what
is acceptable in the reference name (analogous to "git
check-ref-format"'s "--allow-onelevel" and "--refspec-pattern").  This
is more convenient for callers and also fixes a failure in the test
suite (and likely elsewhere in the code) by enabling "onelevel" and
"refspec-pattern" to be allowed independently of each other.

Also rename check_ref_format() to check_refname_format() to make it
obvious that it deals with refnames rather than references themselves.

Also add tests of the new options.  (Actually, one big reason to add
the new options is to make it easy to test check_ref_format(), though
the options should also be useful to other scripts.)

Interpret the result of check_ref_format() based on which types of
refnames are allowed.  However, because check_ref_format() can only
return a single value, one test case is still broken.  Specifically,
the case "git check-ref-format --onelevel '*'" incorrectly succeeds
because check_ref_format() returns CHECK_REF_FORMAT_ONELEVEL for this
refname even though the refname is also CHECK_REF_FORMAT_WILDCARD.
The type of check that leads to this failure is used elsewhere in
"real" code and could lead to bugs; it will be fixed over the next few
commits.

When asked if "refs///heads/master" is valid, check-ref-format says "Yes,
it is well formed", and when asked to print canonical form, it shows
"refs/heads/master". This is so that it can be tucked after "$GIT_DIR/"
to form a valid pathname for a loose ref, and we normalize a pathname like
"$GIT_DIR/refs///heads/master" to de-dup the slashes in it.

Similarly, when asked if "/refs/heads/master" is valid, check-ref-format
says "Yes, it is Ok", but the leading slash is not removed when printing,
leading to "$GIT_DIR//refs/heads/master".

Fix it to make sure such leading slashes are removed.  Add tests that such
refnames are accepted and normalized correctly.

Commands intended to fail should be marked with !, test_must_fail, or
