In 24876ebf68 (commit-reach(repo_in_merge_bases_many): report missing
commits, 2024-02-28), I taught `merge_submodule()` to handle errors
reported by `repo_in_merge_bases_many()`.
However, those errors were not passed through to the callers. That was
unintentional, and this commit remedies that.
Note that `find_first_merges()` can now also return -1 (because it
passes through that return value from `repo_in_merge_bases()`), and this
commit also adds the forgotten handling for that scenario.

The `merge_submodule()` function returns an integer that indicates
whether the merge was clean (returning 1) or unclean (returning 0).
Like the version in `merge-ort.c`, the version in `merge-recursive.c`
does not report any errors (such as repository corruption) by returning
-1 as of time of writing, even if the callers in `merge-ort.c` are
prepared for exactly such errors.
However, we want to teach (both variants of) the `merge_submodule()`
function that trick: to report errors by returning -1. Therefore,
prepare the caller in `merge-recursive.c` to handle that scenario.

Teach fsmonitor_refresh_callback() to handle case-insensitive
lookups if case-sensitive lookups fail on case-insensitive systems.
This can cause 'git status' to report stale status for files if there
are case issues/errors in the worktree.
The FSMonitor daemon sends FSEvents using the observed spelling
of each pathname. On case-insensitive file systems this may be
different than the expected case spelling.
The existing code uses index_name_pos() to find the cache-entry for
the pathname in the FSEvent and clear the CE_FSMONITOR_VALID bit so
that the worktree scan/index refresh will revisit and revalidate the
path.
On a case-insensitive file system, the exact match lookup may fail
to find the associated cache-entry. This causes status to think that
the cached CE flags are correct and skip over the file.
Update event handling to optionally use the name-hash and dir-name-hash
if necessary.
Also update t7527 to convert the "test_expect_failure" to "_success"
now that we have fixed the bug.

Refactor code in the fsmonitor_refresh_callback() call chain dealing
with invalidating the CE_FSMONITOR_VALID bit and add a trace message.
During the refresh, we clear the CE_FSMONITOR_VALID bit in response to
data from the FSMonitor daemon (so that a later phase will lstat() and
verify the true state of the file).
Create a new function to clear the bit and add some unique tracing for
it to help debug edge cases.
This is similar to the existing `mark_fsmonitor_invalid()` function,
but it also does untracked-cache invalidation and we've already
handled that in the refresh-callback handlers, so but we don't need
to repeat that.

git-branch(1) will error out if you give it a bad ref name. But the user
might not understand why or what part of the name is illegal.
The user might know that there are some limitations based on the *loose
ref* format (filenames), but there are also further rules for
easier integration with shell-based tools, pathname expansion, and
playing well with reference name expressions.
The man page for git-check-ref-format(1) contains these rules. Let’s
advise about it since that is not a command that you just happen
upon. Also make this advise configurable since you might not want to be
reminded every time you make a little typo.

In general, rewrite entries to the following form:
1. Clause or sentence describing when the advice is shown
2. Optional “to <verb>” clause which says what the advice is
about (e.g. for resetNoRefresh: tell the user that they can use
`--no-refresh`)
Concretely:
1. Use “shown” instead of “advice shown”
• “advice” is implied and a bit repetitive
2. Use “when” instead of “if”
3. Lead with “Shown when” and end the entry with the effect it has,
where applicable
4. Use “the user” instead of “a user” or “you”
5. implicitIdentity: rewrite description in order to lead with *when*
the advice is shown (see point (3))
6. Prefer the present tense (with the exception of pushNonFFMatching)
7. waitingForEditor: give example of relevance in this new context
8. pushUpdateRejected: exception to the above principles

preferred to keep all the logic in the test itself. Let’s move these

Also:

to `main` post-test
• Prefer indented literal heredocs (`-\EOF`) except for a block which
says that this is intentional
