    repository: do not initialize HEAD if it's provided by templates

When using templates to initialize a git repository, then git-init(1)
will copy over all contents of the template directory. These will be
preferred over the default ones created by git-init(1). While we mostly
do the same, there is the exception of "HEAD". While we do copy over the
template's HEAD file, afterwards we'll immediately re-initialize its
contents with either the default "ref: refs/origin/master" or the init
option's `initial_head` field.

Let's fix the inconsistency with upstream git-init(1) by not overwriting
the template HEAD, but only if the user hasn't set `opts.initial_head`.
If the `initial_head` field has been supplied, we should use that
indifferent from whether the template contained a HEAD file or not. Add
tests to verify we correctly use the template directory's HEAD file and
that `initial_head` overrides the template.

  • Writing Clar tests for libgit2

    For information on the Clar testing framework and a detailed introduction please visit:

    • Write your modules and tests. Use good, meaningful names.

    • Make sure you actually build the tests by setting: 

        cmake -DBUILD_CLAR=ON build/

    • Test: 

        ./build/libgit2_clar

    • Make sure everything is fine.

    • Send your pull request. That’s it.

    Memory leak checks

    These are automatically run as part of CI, but if you want to check locally:

    Linux

    Uses valgrind:

    $ cmake -DBUILD_CLAR=ON -DVALGRIND=ON ..
$ cmake --build .
$ valgrind --leak-check=full --show-reachable=yes --num-callers=50 --suppressions=../libgit2_clar.supp \
  ./libgit2_clar

    macOS

    Uses leaks, which requires XCode installed:

    $ MallocStackLogging=1 MallocScribble=1 MallocLogFile=/dev/null CLAR_AT_EXIT="leaks -quiet \$PPID" \
  ./libgit2_clar
