Currently, object files in libgit.a reference common_exit(), which is contained in common-main.o. However, common-main.o also includes main(), which references cmd_main() in git.o, which in turn depends on all the builtin/*.o objects. We would like to allow external users to link libgit.a without needing to include so many extra objects. Enable this by splitting common_exit() and check_bug_if_BUG() into a new file common-exit.c, and add common-exit.o to LIB_OBJS so that these are included in libgit.a. This split has previously been proposed ([1], [2]) to support fuzz tests and unit tests by avoiding conflicting definitions for main(). However, both of those issues were resolved by other methods of avoiding symbol conflicts. Now we are trying to make libgit.a more self-contained, so hopefully we can revisit this approach.
