progress: use term_clear_line()

To make sure that the previously displayed progress line is completely
covered up when the new line is shorter, commit 545dc345eb (progress:
break too long progress bar lines, 2019-04-12) added a bunch of
calculations to figure out how many characters it needs to overwrite
with spaces.

Use the just introduced term_clear_line() helper function to, well,
clear the last line, making all these calculations unnecessary, and
thus simplifying the code considerably.

Three tests in 't5541-http-push-smart.sh' 'grep' for specific text
shown in the progress lines at the beginning of the line, but now
those lines begin either with the ANSI escape sequence or with the
terminal width worth of space characters clearing the line.  Relax the
'grep' patterns to match anywhere on the line.  Note that only two of
these three tests fail without relaxing their 'grep' pattern, but the
third looks for the absence of the pattern, so it still succeeds, but
without the adjustment would potentially hide future regressions.

Note also that with this change we no longer need the length of the
previously displayed progress line, so the strbuf added to 'struct
progress' in d53ba841d4 (progress: assemble percentage and counters in
a strbuf before printing, 2019-04-05) is not strictly necessary
anymore.  We still keep it, though, as it avoids allocating and
releasing a strbuf each time the progress is updated.

Git - fast, scalable, distributed revision control system

Git is a fast, scalable, distributed revision control system with an unusually rich command set that provides both high-level operations and full access to internals.

Git is an Open Source project covered by the GNU General Public License version 2 (some parts of it are under different licenses, compatible with the GPLv2). It was originally written by Linus Torvalds with help of a group of hackers around the net.

Please read the file INSTALL for installation instructions.

Many Git online resources are accessible from https://git-scm.com/ including full documentation and Git related tools.

See Documentation/gittutorial.txt to get started, then see Documentation/giteveryday.txt for a useful minimum set of commands, and Documentation/git-.txt for documentation of each command. If git has been correctly installed, then the tutorial can also be read with man gittutorial or git help tutorial, and the documentation of each command with man git-<commandname> or git help <commandname>.

CVS users may also want to read Documentation/gitcvs-migration.txt (man gitcvs-migration or git help cvs-migration if git is installed).

The user discussion and development of Git take place on the Git mailing list -- everyone is welcome to post bug reports, feature requests, comments and patches to git@vger.kernel.org (read Documentation/SubmittingPatches for instructions on patch submission). To subscribe to the list, send an email with just “subscribe git” in the body to majordomo@vger.kernel.org. The mailing list archives are available at https://public-inbox.org/git/, http://marc.info/?l=git and other archival sites.

Issues which are security relevant should be disclosed privately to the Git Security mailing list git-security@googlegroups.com.

The maintainer frequently sends the “What's cooking” reports that list the current status of various development topics to the mailing list. The discussion following them give a good reference for project status, development direction and remaining tasks.

The name “git” was given by Linus Torvalds when he wrote the very first version. He described the tool as “the stupid content tracker” and the name as (depending on your mood):

  • random three-letter combination that is pronounceable, and not actually used by any common UNIX command. The fact that it is a mispronunciation of “get” may or may not be relevant.
  • stupid. contemptible and despicable. simple. Take your pick from the dictionary of slang.
  • “global information tracker”: you're in a good mood, and it actually works for you. Angels sing, and a light suddenly fills the room.
  • “goddamn idiotic truckload of sh*t”: when it breaks
