Adds a new "key=X" option to "%(trailers)" which will cause it to only
print trailers lines which match the specified key.

The last "Examples" item does not logically belong to the other
three, which bothers me a bit.

This is part of a loop that is entered after seeing "%(trailers:"
and existing one looks for 'unfold' and 'only' by using the
match_placeholder_arg() helper, which

 - returns false if the keyword is not what is being sought after;
 - returns 1 if it finds the keyword, followed by ',' or ')', and
   updates the end pointer to point at either the closing ')' or one
   place after the ','.

The new part cannot directly reuse the same helper because it
expects some non-constant string after "key=", but shouldn't we be
introducing a similar helper with extended feature to help this part
of the code to stay readable?  Exposing the minute details of the
logic to parse "key=<value>,..." while hiding the counterpart to
parse "(only|unfold),..." makes the implementation of the above loop
uneven and hard to follow.

I wonder if a helper like this would help:

static int match_placeholder(const char *to_parse, const char *keyword,
			     const char **value, size_t *valuelen,
			     const char **end)
{
	const char *p;

	if (!(skip_prefix(to_parse, keyword, &p)))
		return 0;

	if (value && valuelen) {
		/* expect "<keyword>=<value>" */
		size_t vlen;
		if (*p++ != '=')
			return 1;
		vlen = strcspn(p, ",)");
		if (!p[vlen])
			return 0;
		*value = p;
		*valuelen = vlen;
		p = p + vlen;
	}

	if (*p == ',') {
		*end = p + 1;
		return 1;
	}
	if (*p == ')') {
		*end = p;
		return 1;
	}
	return 0;
}

which would allow the existing one to become a thin wrapper

static int match_placeholder_arg(const char *a, const char *b, const char **c)
{
	return match_placeholder(a, b, NULL, NULL, c);
}

or can simply be eliminated by updating its only two callsites.

In the version you wrote, it is not clear what would happen if the
format string ends with "%(trailers:key=" (no value, no comma, not
even the closing paren).  I do not think it would fall into infinite
loop, but I do not think the code structure without the helper that
makes the loop's logic uniform would allow it to properly diagnose
such a malformed string.

It would be good to allow multiple keys, as

	%(trailers:key=signed-off-by,key=helped-by)

and

	%(trailers:key=signed-off-by)%(trailers:key=helped-by)

would mean quite a different thing.  The former can preserve the
order of these sign-offs and helped-bys in the original, while the
latter would have to show all the sign-offs before showing the
helped-bys, and I am not convinced if the latter is the only valid
use case.

Also, use of 'key=' automatically turns on 'only' as described, and
I tend to agree that it would a convenient default mode (i.e. when
picking certain trailers only with this mechanism, it is likely that
the user is willing to use %(subject) etc. to fill in what was lost
by the implicit use of 'only'), but at the same time, it makes me
wonder if we need to have a way to countermand an 'only' (or
'unfold' for that matter) that was given earlier, e.g.

	%(trailers:key=signed-off-by,only=no)

Thanks.

I'm not sure what that would mean. The non-trailer lines in the trailer
block doesn't match the key.

Take this commit as an example:

$ git show -s --pretty=format:'%(trailers)' b4d065df03049bacfbc40467b60b13e804b7d289
Helped-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net>
[jc: took idea and log message from peff]
Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

With 'only' it shows:
$ git show -s --pretty=format:'%(trailers:only)' b4d065df03049bacfbc40467b60b13e804b7d289
Helped-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net>
Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

Now with a "key=signed-off-by" option I would imagine that as adding a
"| grep -i '^signed-off-by:'" to the end. In both cases (with and
without 'only') that would give the same result:
"Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>"

I was confused by the "only" stuff.

When you give a key (or two), they cannot possibly name non-trailer
lines, so while it may be possible to ask "oh, by the way, I also
want non-trailer lines in addition to signed-off-by and cc lines",
the value of being able to make such a request is dubious.

The value is dubious, but logically it makes it more consistent with
the current %(trailers) that lack 'only', which is "oh by the way, I
also want non-trailer lines in addition to the trailers with
keyword", to allow a way to countermand the 'only' you flip on by
default when keywords are given.

Would it feel less inconsistent if it did not set the 'only_trailers'
option?

Now that I look at it again setting 'only_trailers' is more of an
implementation trick/hack to make sure it doesn't take the fast-path in
format_trailer_info (and by documenting it it justifies that hack). If
instead the 'filter' option is checked in the relevant places there
would be no need to mix up 'only' with 'filter'.

That is, do you think something like this should be squashed in?

If %(trailers:key=...) did not automatically imply 'only', it would
be very consistent.

But as I already said, I think it would be less convenient, as I do
suspect that those who want specific keys would want to see only
those trailers with specific keys.

And if we want that convinience, we'd probably want a way to
optionally disable that 'only' bit when the user wants to.

And...

... I do not think this change reduces the puzzlement felt by
readers who would have wondered how that implied 'only' can be
countermanded with the old text.  It just makes it look even less
explained to them.

If we assume that nobody would ever want to mix non-trailers when
asking specific keywords, then "them" in the above paragraph would
become an empty set, and we do not have to worry about them.  I am
not sure if Git is still such a small project to allow us rely on
such an assumption, though.
