Previous commits have marked a number of error or warning messages in
"builtin/fast-export.c" and "builtin/fast-import.c" for translation.
As "gpg-interface.c" code is used by the fast-export and fast-import
code, we should make sure that error or warning messages are also all
marked for translation in "gpg-interface.c".
To ensure that, let's mark for translation an error message in a
die() function.
With this, all the error and warning messages emitted by fast-export
and fast-import can be properly translated.

Some error or warning messages in "builtin/fast-import.c" are marked
for translation, but many are not.
To be more consistent and provide a better experience to people using a
translated version, let's mark all the remaining error or warning
messages for translation.
While at it, let's make the following small changes:
- replace "GIT" or "git" in a few error messages to just "Git",
- replace "Expected from command, got %s" to "expected 'from'
command, got '%s'", which makes it clearer that "from" is a command
and should not be translated,
- downcase error and warning messages that start with an uppercase,
- fix test cases in "t9300-fast-import.sh" that broke because an
error or warning message was downcased,
- split error and warning messages that are too long,
- adjust the indentation of some arguments of the error functions.

In "gpg-interface.h", the definitions of the GPG_VERIFY_* boolean flags
are currently using 1, 2 and 4 while we often prefer the bitwise left
shift operator, `<<`, for that purpose to make it clearer that they are
boolean.
Let's use the left shift operator here too. Let's also fix an indent
issue with "4" while at it.

In "gpg-interface.c", the 'parse_ssh_output()' function takes a
'struct signature_check *sigc' argument and populates many members of
this 'sigc' using information parsed from 'sigc->output' which
contains the ouput of an `ssh-keygen -Y ...` command that was used to
verify an SSH signature.
When it populates 'sigc->fingerprint' though, it uses
`xstrdup(strstr(line, "key ") + 4)` while `strstr(line, "key ")` has
already been computed a few lines above and is already available in
the `key` variable.
Let's simplify this.

We read the input into a strbuf, so we must free it. Without this, t1016
complains in SANITIZE=leak mode.
The bug was introduced in 7673ecd2dc (t1016-compatObjectFormat: add
tests to verify the conversion between objects, 2023-10-01). But nobody
seems to have noticed, probably because CI did not run these tests until
the fix in 6cd8369ef3 (t/lib-gpg: call prepare_gnupghome() in GPG2
prereq, 2024-07-03).

Because gitignore patterns are passed to fnmatch, the handling of
backslashes is the same as it is there: it can be used to escape
metacharacters. We do reference fnmatch(3) for more details, but it may
be friendlier to point out this implication explicitly (especially for
people who want to know about backslash handling and search the
documentation for that word). There are also two cases that I've seen
some other backslash-escaping systems handle differently, so let's
describe those:
1. A backslash before any character treats that character literally,
even if it's not otherwise a meta-character. As opposed to
including the backslash itself (like "foo\bar" in shell expands to
"foo\bar") or forbidding it ("foo\zar" is required to produce a
diagnostic in C).
2. A backslash at the end of the string is an invalid pattern (and not
a literal backslash).
This second one in particular was a point of confusion between our
implementation and the one in JGit. Our wildmatch behavior matches what
POSIX specifies for fnmatch, so the code and documentation are in line.
But let's add a test to cover this case. Note that the behavior here
differs between wildmatch itself (which is what gitignore will use) and
pathspec matching (which will only turn to wildmatch if a literal match
fails). So we match "foo\" to "foo\" in pathspecs, but not via
gitignore.

The strategy in t1016-compatObjectFormat is to build two trees with
identical commits, one tree encoded in sha1 the other tree encoded
in sha256 and to use the compatibility code to test and see if
the two trees are identical.
GPG signatures include the current time as part of the signature.
To make gpg deterministic I forced the use of gpg --faked-system-time.
Unfortunately I did not look closely enough.
By default gpg still allows time to move forward with --faked-system-time.
So in those rare instances when the system is heavily loaded and gpg runs
slower than other times, signatures over the exact same data differ
due to timestamps with a minuscule difference.
Reading through the gpg documentation with a close eye, time can be
frozen by including an exclamation point at the end of the argument to
--faked-system-time.
Add the exclamation point so gpg really runs with a fixed notion of time,
resulting in the exact same data having identical gpg signatures.
That is enough that I can run "t1016-compatObjectFormat.sh --stress"
and I don't see any failures.
It is possible a future change to gpg will make replay protection more
robust and not provide a way to allow two separate runs of gpg to
produce exactly the same signature for exactly the same data. If that
happens a deeper comparison of the two repositories will need to be
performed. A comparison that simply verifies the signatures and
compares the data for equality. For now that is a lot of work
for no gain so I am just documenting the possibility.

Update the usage string of `git bisect` and documentation to match each
other. While at it, also:
1. Move the synopsis of `git bisect` subcommands to the synopsis
section, so that the test `t0450-txt-doc-vs-help.sh` can pass.
2. Document the `git bisect next` subcommand, which exists in the code
but is missing from the documentation.

The placeholder markup is underscore (_), not backtick (`) as well.
The inline-verbatim markup (backticks) handle interior formatting. This
means in this case that it applies HTML `<code>` to the underscores and
`<em>` to the placeholder.
That is the effect, anyway; we can see from the rest of 042d6f34 (doc:
git-checkout: clarify `-b` and `-B`, 2025-09-10) that this was probably
an unintended mix-up.
