Subject: bug#68183: 28.3; vc-dir fails when I have a certain branch checked out

Heya,

Have spent cycles on this on-and-off these past few months; finally have
something worth discussing, I think 🤞

To recap where we stand, AFAIU: the reported vc-dir bug has been fixed
(in time for the emacs-30 branch), but the changes could feel intrusive,
since a new vc-dir header was added ("Tracking") that some users may not
care for.

I've now drafted a user option to give users more control over this new
header; see patch #3 in the attached series.

The first two patches are yak-shaving: patch #1 adds regression tests,
patch #2 splits vc-git-dir-extra-headers into more manageable chunks
(pure refactoring, no functional change intended).

Also attaching a 'squashed.patch' if that helps review.

About patch #2, CC'ing Sean Whitton for perspective on
vc-git--cmds-in-progress: I was puzzled by the function supporting many
commands (rebase, am, merge, bisect), whereas AFAICT its sole user only
heeds 'bisect & 'rebase.  Wondering if I've missed other in-tree uses,
or if we should add headers for 'am and 'merge, "while in there".

Curious what y'all think.  OT1H not sure an alist is the best UX, OTOH
struggled to keep option names concise otherwise.

Subject: [PATCH 2/3] Split vc-git-dir-extra-headers into more manageable
 chunks

The current code requires a lot of eyeballing back-and-forth
to:

- check where variables are actually used, what impact changing
them can have: in actuality, there are three distinct "groups"
of headers we compute, each with their own independent state;
- understand formatting details such as "who's in charge of the
newlines".

To solve both issues, split that function into smaller ones,
each handling a "group" of headers.

The only expected "functional" change is that, by propertizing
"\nHeader: " strings, the original code sometimes applied the
vc-dir-header face to the newline preceding a header; the new
code applies no faces to these newlines.

This change would be visible to users with themes adding an
:extended background to vc-dir-header.  In practice, no in-tree
theme is impacted.

For bug#68183.

* lisp/vc/vc-git.el (vc-git-dir--branch-headers): New function
to compute "Branch", "Tracking" and "Remote".
(vc-git--cmds-in-progress): Rename to...
(vc-git-dir--in-progress-headers): ... this, and compute
headers.
(vc-git-dir--stash-headers): New function to compute the
"Stash" header.
(vc-git-dir-extra-headers): Boil down to just setting
default-directory and assembling the headers from these new
helpers.
(vc-git--out-match): New function to call 'git' and capture
specific bits of output.

Subject: [PATCH 3/3] Let users choose when and how to display Git tracking
 branch

For bug#68183.

* lisp/vc/vc-git.el (vc-git-dir-show-tracking): New option.
(vc-git-dir--tracking): New function to format upstream branch
according to the new option.
(vc-git-dir--branch-headers): Use new option & new function to
format upstream branch according to user preference.
* test/lisp/vc/vc-git-tests.el (vc-git-test--dir-headers):
Allow temporarily binding the new option.
(vc-git-test-dir-branch-headers): Test a handful of option
tweaks.

+  "Control how `vc-dir' shows the upstream branch.
+The \"upstream\" branch is the one `vc-pull' fetches changes from by
+default.  In Git terms, when checking out branch B, the upstream branch
+is defined by the configuration options branch.B.merge and
+branch.B.remote.
+
+This option is an alist which admits the following symbol keys:
+
+* `when' controls whether information about the upstream branch will be
+  shown.  The value for this key can be one of the following symbols:
+  - set           (default) Only show the upstream branch if it is set,
+                  as defined by the previously mentioned Git config
+                  options.
+  - t             If a branch is checked out (that is, HEAD is not
+                  detached), always show something: fallback to \"none\"
+                  if the current branch is not tracking anything.
+  - different     Only show the upstream branch if branch.B.merge is
+                  named differently from B.  This allows hiding the
+                  header in the common case where branch \"foo\" tracks
+                  \"origin/foo\".
+  - never         Never show the upstream branch.
+
+* `how' controls the way this information will be shown.  The value can
+  be one of the following symbols:
+  - header        (default) Show the branch in a dedicated header,
+                  \"Tracking\".

Subject: [PATCH] Let users choose when and how to display Git tracking branch

While in there, split vc-git-dir-extra-headers into more
manageable chunks.  The current code requires a lot of
eyeballing back-and-forth to:

- check where variables are actually used, what impact changing
them can have: in actuality, there are three distinct "groups"
of headers we compute, each with their own independent state;
- understand formatting details such as "who's in charge of the
newlines".

To solve both issues, split that function into smaller ones,
each handling a "group" of headers.

The only expected "functional" change is that, by propertizing
"\nHeader: " strings, the original code sometimes applied the
vc-dir-header face to the newline preceding a header; the new
code applies no faces to these newlines.

This change would be visible to users with themes adding an
:extended background to vc-dir-header.  In practice, no in-tree
theme is impacted.

For bug#68183.

* lisp/vc/vc-git.el (vc-git-dir-show-tracking): New option.
(vc-git-dir--tracking): New function to format upstream branch
according to the new option.
(vc-git-dir--branch-headers): New function to compute "Branch",
"Tracking" and "Remote".
(vc-git--cmds-in-progress): Rename to...
(vc-git-dir--in-progress-headers): ... this, and compute
headers.
(vc-git-dir--stash-headers): New function to compute the
"Stash" header.
(vc-git-dir-extra-headers): Boil down to just setting
default-directory and assembling the headers from these new
helpers.
(vc-git--out-match): New function to call 'git' and capture
specific bits of output.

* test/lisp/vc/vc-git-tests.el
(vc-git-test-dir-track-local-branch): Remove in favor of new
test.
(vc-git-test--start-branch): New helper to get a repository
going.
(vc-git-test--dir-headers): New helper to get a list of headers
in the current vc-dir buffer.
(vc-git-test-dir-branch-headers): New test, exercising the
original bug recipe plus more common scenarios, as well as some
option tweaks.

+  "Control how `vc-dir' shows the upstream branch.
+The \"upstream\" branch is the one `vc-pull' fetches changes from by
+default.  In Git terms, when checking out branch B, the upstream branch
+is defined by the configuration options branch.B.merge and
+branch.B.remote.
+
+This option is an alist which admits the following symbol keys:
+
+* `when' controls whether information about the upstream branch will be
+  shown.  The value for this key can be one of the following symbols:
+  - set           (default) Only show the upstream branch if it is set,
+                  as defined by the previously mentioned Git config
+                  options.
+  - t             If a branch is checked out (that is, HEAD is not
+                  detached), always show something: fallback to \"none\"
+                  if the current branch is not tracking anything.
+  - different     Only show the upstream branch if branch.B.merge is
+                  named differently from B.  This allows hiding the
+                  header in the common case where branch \"foo\" tracks
+                  \"origin/foo\".
+  - never         Never show the upstream branch.
+
+* `how' controls the way this information will be shown.  The value can
+  be one of the following symbols:
+  - header        (default) Show the branch in a dedicated header,
+                  \"Tracking\".
+  - inline        Append the branch to the \"Branch\" header, e.g.
