* Documentation updates

- Clarifications and corrections to 1.5.0 release notes.

- The main documentation did not link to git-remote documentation.

- Clarified introductory text of git-rebase documentation.

- Converted remaining mentions of update-index on Porcelain
documents to git-add/git-rm.

- Some i18n.* configuration variables were incorrectly
described as core.*; fixed.

- added and clarified core.bare, core.legacyheaders configurations.

- updated "git-clone --depth" documentation.

- user-manual updates.

- Options to 'git remote add' were described insufficiently.

- Configuration format.suffix was not documented.

- Other formatting and spelling fixes.

- user-manual has better cross references.

- gitweb installation/deployment procedure is now documented.


* Bugfixes

- git-upload-pack closes unused pipe ends; earlier this caused
many zombies to hang around.

- git-rerere was recording the contents of earlier hunks
duplicated in later hunks. This prevented resolving the same
conflict when performing the same merge the other way around.

- git-add and git-update-index on a filesystem on which
executable bits are unreliable incorrectly reused st_mode
bits even when the path changed between symlink and regular
file.

- git-daemon marks the listening sockets with FD_CLOEXEC so
that it won't be leaked into the children.

- segfault from git-blame when the mandatory pathname
parameter was missing was fixed; usage() message is given
instead.

- git-rev-list did not read $GIT_DIR/config file, which means
that did not honor i18n.logoutputencoding correctly.

- Automated merge conflict handling when changes to symbolic
links conflicted were completely broken. The merge-resolve
strategy created a regular file with conflict markers in it
in place of the symbolic link. The default strategy,
merge-recursive was even more broken. It removed the path
that was pointed at by the symbolic link. Both of these
problems have been fixed.

- 'git diff maint master next' did not correctly give combined
diff across three trees.

- 'git fast-import' portability fix for Solaris.

- 'git show-ref --verify' without arguments did not error out
but segfaulted.

- 'git diff :tracked-file `pwd`/an-untracked-file' gave an extra
slashes after a/ and b/.

- 'git format-patch' produced too long filenames if the commit
message had too long line at the beginning.

- Running 'make all' and then without changing anything
running 'make install' still rebuilt some files. This
was inconvenient when building as yourself and then
installing as root (especially problematic when the source
directory is on NFS and root is mapped to nobody).

- 'git-rerere' failed to deal with two unconflicted paths that
sorted next to each other.

- 'git-rerere' attempted to open(2) a symlink and failed if
there was a conflict. Since a conflicting change to a
symlink would not benefit from rerere anyway, the command
now ignores conflicting changes to symlinks.

- 'git-repack' did not like to pass more than 64 arguments
internally to underlying 'rev-list' logic, which made it
impossible to repack after accumulating many (small) packs
in the repository.

- 'git-diff' to review the combined diff during a conflicted
merge were not reading the working tree version correctly
when changes to a symbolic link conflicted. It should have
read the data using readlink(2) but read from the regular
file the symbolic link pointed at.

- 'git-remote' did not like period in a remote's name.

- 'git.el' honors the commit coding system from the configuration.

- 'blameview' in contrib/ correctly digs deeper when a line is
clicked.

- 'http-push' correctly makes sure the remote side has leading
path. Earlier it started in the middle of the path, and
incorrectly.

- 'git-merge' did not exit with non-zero status when the
working tree was dirty and cannot fast forward. It does
now.

- 'cvsexportcommit' does not lose yet-to-be-used message file.

- int-vs-size_t typefix when running combined diff on files
over 2GB long.

- 'git apply --whitespace=strip' should not touch unmodified
lines.

- 'git-mailinfo' choke when a logical header line was too long.

- 'git show A..B' did not error out. Negative ref ("not A" in
this example) does not make sense for the purpose of the
command, so now it errors out.

- 'git fmt-merge-msg --file' without file parameter did not
correctly error out.

- 'git archimport' barfed upon encountering a commit without
summary.

- 'git index-pack' did not protect itself from getting a short
read out of pread(2).

- 'git http-push' had a few buffer overruns.

- Build dependency fixes to rebuild fetch.o when other headers
change.

- git.el does not add duplicate sign-off lines.

- git-commit shows the full stat of the resulting commit, not
just about the files in the current directory, when run from
a subdirectory.

- "git-checkout -m '@{8 hours ago}'" had a funny failure from
eval; fixed.

- git-merge (hence git-pull) did not refuse fast-forwarding
when the working tree had local changes that would have
conflicted with it.

- a handful small fixes to gitweb.

- build procedure for user-manual is fixed not to require locally
installed stylesheets.

- "git commit $paths" on paths whose earlier contents were
already updated in the index were failing out.


* Tweaks

- sliding mmap() inefficiently mmaped the same region of a
packfile with an access pattern that used objects in the
reverse order. This has been made more efficient.
