[PATCH v2 07/17] mktree: use read_index_info to read stdin lines

<9dc8e16a7fca886ec378d74a8e2ac61921a7f6ea.1718834285.git.gitgitgadget@gmail.com>
In-Reply-To
<pull.1746.v2.git.1718834285.gitgitgadget@gmail.com>
From: Victoria Dye <vdye@github.com>

Replace the custom input parsing of 'mktree' with 'read_index_info()', which handles not only the 'ls-tree' output format it already handles but also the other formats compatible with 'update-index'. This lends some consistency across the commands (avoiding the need for two similar implementations for input parsing) and adds flexibility to mktree.

It should be noted that, while the error messages are largely preserved in the refactor, one does change: "fatal: invalid quoting" is now "error: bad quoting of path name".

Update 'Documentation/git-mktree.txt' to reflect the more permissive input format, as well as make a note about rejecting stage values higher than 0.

 SYNOPSIS
@@ -13,15 +13,14 @@ SYNOPSIS
 
 DESCRIPTION
 -----------
-Reads standard input in non-recursive `ls-tree` output format, and creates
-a tree object.  The order of the tree entries is normalized by mktree so
-pre-sorting the input is not required.  The object name of the tree object
-built is written to the standard output.
+Reads entry information from stdin and creates a tree object from those
+entries. The object name of the tree object built is written to the standard
+output.
 
 OPTIONS
 -------
 -z::
-	Read the NUL-terminated `ls-tree -z` output instead.
+	Input lines are separated with NUL rather than LF.
 
 --missing::
 	Allow missing objects.  The default behaviour (without this option)
@@ -35,6 +34,21 @@ OPTIONS
 	optional.  Note - if the `-z` option is used, lines are terminated
 	with NUL.
 
+INPUT FORMAT
+------------
+Tree entries may be specified in any of the formats compatible with the
+`--index-info` option to linkgit:git-update-index[1]:
+
+include::index-info-formats.txt[]
+
+Note that if the `stage` of a tree entry is given, the value must be 0.
+Higher stages represent conflicted files in an index; this information
+cannot be represented in a tree object. The command will fail without
+writing the tree if a higher order stage is specified for any entry.
+
+The order of the tree entries is normalized by `mktree` so pre-sorting the
+input by path is not required.
