Subject: [PATCH v2] ls-files: introduce "--format" option

From: "ZheNing Hu via GitGitGadget" <[email-masked]>
Date: Sun, 19 Jun 2022 09:13:10 +0000

From: ZheNing Hu <[email-masked]>

Add a new option --format that output index enties
informations with custom format, taking inspiration
from the option with the same name in the `git ls-tree`
command.

--format cannot used with -s, -o, -k, --resolve-undo,
--deduplicate and --debug.

    ls-files: introduce "--format" options
    
    v1->v2:
    
     1. do some code style fix suggected by Ævar.
     2. remove --object-only option (I have tried to use fast path for it,
        but cannot see any performance promote compare with
        --format=%(objectname))

+It is possible to print in a custom format by using the `--format`
+option, which is able to interpolate different fields using
+a `%(fieldname)` notation. For example, if you only care about the
+"objectname" and "path" fields, you can execute with a specific
+"--format" like
+
+	git ls-files --format='%(objectname) %(path)'
+
+FIELD NAMES
+-----------
+Various values from structured fields can be used to interpolate
+into the resulting output. For each outputting line, the following
+names can be used:
+
+tag::
+	The tag of file status.
+objectmode::
+	The mode of the object.
+objectname::
+	The name of the object.
+stage::
+	The stage of the file.
+eol::
+	The line endings of files.
+path::
+	The pathname of the object.
+ctime::
+	The create time of file.
+mtime::
+	The modify time of file.
+dev::
+	The ID of device containing file.
+ino::
+	The inode number of file.
+uid::
+	The user id of file owner.
+gid::
+	The group id of file owner.
+size::
+	The size of the file.
+flags::
+	The flags of the file.
