This operation was added recently with the goal to provide some way to auto-correct invalid user input, or to provide a correction suggestion to the user -- EGit uses it now that way. But the initial implementation was very restrictive; it removed all non-ASCII characters and even slashes. Understandably end users were not happy with that. Git has no such restriction to ASCII-only; nor does JGit. Branch names should be meaningful to the end user, and if a user-supplied branch name is invalid for technical reasons, a "normalized" name should still be meaningful to the user. Rewrite to attempt a minimal fix such that the result will pass isValidRefName. * Replace all Unicode whitespace by underscore. * Replace troublesome special characters by dash. * Collapse sequences of underscores, dots, and dashes. * Remove underscores, dots, and dashes following slashes, and collapse sequences of slashes. * Strip leading and trailing sequences of slashes, dots, dashes, and underscores. * Avoid the ".lock" extension. * Avoid the Windows reserved device names. * If input name is null return an empty String so callers don't need to check for null. This still allows branch names with single slashes as separators between components, avoids some pitfalls that isValidRefName() tests for, and leaves other character untouched and thus allows non-ASCII branch names. Also move the function from the bottom of the file up to where isValidRefName is implemented.
