Dave Williams	8231fa6ae1	check-ignore: Add option to ignore index contents check-ignore currently shows how .gitignore rules would treat untracked paths. Tracked paths do not generate useful output. This prevents debugging of why a path became tracked unexpectedly unless that path is first removed from the index with `git rm --cached <path>`. The option --no-index tells the command to bypass the check for the path being in the index and hence allows tracked paths to be checked too. Whilst this behaviour deviates from the characteristics of `git add` and `git status` its use case is unlikely to cause any user confusion. Test scripts are augmented to check this option against the standard ignores to ensure correct behaviour.

Adam Spiers	f1ed7fea79	Documentation: add caveats about I/O buffering for check-{attr,ignore} check-attr and check-ignore have the potential to deadlock callers which do not read back the output in real-time. For example, if a caller writes N paths out and then reads N lines back in, it risks becoming blocked on write() to check-, and check- is blocked on write back to the caller. Somebody has to buffer; the pipe buffers provide some leeway, but they are limited.

Adam Spiers	ae3caf4c91	check-ignore: add -n / --non-matching option If `-n` or `--non-matching` are specified, non-matching pathnames will also be output, in which case all fields in each output record except for <pathname> will be empty. This can be useful when running check-ignore as a background process, so that files can be incrementally streamed to STDIN, and for each of these files, STDOUT will indicate whether that file matched a pattern or not. (Without this option, it would be impossible to tell whether the absence of output for a given file meant that it didn't match any pattern, or that the result simply hadn't been flushed to STDOUT yet.)

Adam Spiers	368aa52952	add git-check-ignore sub-command This works in a similar manner to git-check-attr.
