tag -v now supports --format specifiers to inspect the contents of a tag
upon verification. Add two tests to ensure this behavior is respected in
future changes.

Subject: [PATCH v6 3/6] builtin/verify-tag: add --format to verify-tag
Message-ID: <20170117233723.23897-4-santiago@nyu.edu>
URL: https://gitlist.dev/e/20170117233723.23897-4-santiago%40nyu.edu

```
From: Santiago Torres <santiago@nyu.edu>

Callers of verify-tag may want to cross-check the tagname from refs/tags
with the tagname from the tag object header upon GPG verification. This
is to avoid tag refs that point to an incorrect object.

Add a --format parameter to git verify-tag to print the formatted tag
object header in addition to or instead of the --verbose or --raw GPG
verification output.

Functions that print git object information may require that the
gpg-interface functions be silent. Add GPG_VERIFY_OMIT_STATUS flag and
prevent print_signature_buffer from being called if flag is set.

Subject: [PATCH v6 0/6] Add --format to tag verification
Message-ID: <20170117233723.23897-1-santiago@nyu.edu>
URL: https://gitlist.dev/e/20170117233723.23897-1-santiago%40nyu.edu

```
From: Santiago Torres <santiago@nyu.edu>

This is the sixth iteration of [1][2][3][4][5], and as a result of the
discussion in [5]. The main goal of this patch series is to bring
--format to git tag verification so that upper-layer tools can inspect
the content of a tag and make decisions based on it.

In this re-woll we:

* Changed the call interface so printing is done outside of verification. 

* Fixed a couple of whitespace issues and whatnot. 

Thanks,
-Santiago

From: Lukas Puehringer <luk.puehringer@gmail.com>

ref-filter functions are useful for printing git object information
using a format specifier. However, some other modules may not want to use
this functionality on a ref-array but only print a single item.

Expose a pretty_print_ref function to create, pretty print and free
individual ref-items.

```
From: Lukas Puehringer <luk.puehringer@gmail.com>

Adding --format to git tag -v mutes the default output of the GPG
verification and instead prints the formatted tag object.
This allows callers to cross-check the tagname from refs/tags with
the tagname from the tag object header upon GPG verification.

The callback function for for_each_tag_name() didn't allow callers to
pass custom data to their callback functions. Add a new opaque pointer
to each_tag_name_fn's parameter to allow this.

Verify-tag now provides --format specifiers to inspect and ensure the
contents of the tag are proper. We add two tests to ensure this
functionality works as expected: the return value should indicate if
verification passed, and the format specifiers must be respected.

With the small code structure change Peff suggested the result looks
much easier to read.  I didn't spot any more problems.

Will replace what has been sitting in my tree.  Thanks.

This triggers:

    builtin/tag.c: In function 'cmd_tag':
    builtin/tag.c:451:3: error: passing argument 3 of
    'for_each_tag_name' discards 'const' qualifier from pointer target type [-Werror]

Either for-each-tag-name's new parameter needs to be typed
correctly, or the type of the "format" variable needs to be updated.

Squashing the following into this commit solves this issue with the
former approach.  The lines it touches are all from 4/6 and I view
all of it as general improvement, including type correctness and
code formatting.

This would bite us later if one of the iterators really does need to
pass something mutable. But as this iteration interface is confined to
builtin/tag.c, I think it's a nice simple fix.

A more general fix would be to pass a non-const pointer to const pointer
(preferably inside a struct for readability). But I don't see any need
for that complexity here.

Eric, I've noticed that this message

and all messages from Santiago appear empty when they come via
public-inbox.org; the reason I suspect we haven't heard much
complaints is because nobody else around here sends multipart/signed

My first trial was to loosen the constness of existing variable,
which was OK, but made me feel dirty by turning what does not need
to be mutable into mutable.  The iterator being local made me try
the other way and it turned out that currently there is no need for
mutable callback data ;-)

I agree that this may have to be updated, and if this were more
global thing, we'd better off doing so from the get-go, but for a
calling convention that is limited within a single file, I am more
comfortable saying we'll cross the bridge when we need to.

Thanks.

Interesting, I thought I wasn't inlining the .asc. I guess I can disable

Nah, local squashing should be sufficient in this case.  The squash
only touches a single patch from the original and it itself is easy
to review (and was reviewed already from what I can tell in this
thread).

Eeep!  This looks like a regression I introduced when working
around Richard Hansen's S/MIME mails the other week on git@vger:

  https://public-inbox.org/meta/20170110222235.GB27356@dcvr/T/#u

Worse is they now corrupted on the way in into the git repo
because of search indexing.  Will fix ASAP.  Thanks for the
heads up.

Yep, I copied SUPER and used it improperly in a subclass.  Should be
fixed now, and reimported several messages from my Maildir.  NNTP
readers will see new article numbers for reimported Message-IDs.
