Logic in still_interesting function allows to stop the commits
traversing if the oldest processed commit is not older then the
youngest commit on the list to process and the list contains only
commits marked as not interesting ones. It can be premature when dealing
with a set of coequal commits. For example git rev-list A^! --not B
provides wrong answer if all commits in the range A..B had the same
commit time and there are more then 7 of them.
To fix this problem the relevant part of the logic in still_interesting
is changed to: the walk can be stopped if the oldest processed commit is
younger then the youngest commit on the list to processed.

When asking Git to merge a tag (such as a signed tag or annotated tag),
it will always create a merge commit even if fast-forward was possible.
It's like having --no-ff present on the command line.
It's a difference from the default behavior described in git-merge.txt.
It should be documented as an exception of "FAST-FORWARD MERGE" section
and "--ff" option description.

Older versions of pack-refs did not write peel lines for
refs outside of refs/tags. This meant that on reading the
pack-refs file, we might set the REF_KNOWS_PEELED flag for
such a ref, even though we do not know anything about its
peeled value.
The previous commit updated the writer to always peel, no
matter what the ref is. That means that packed-refs files
written by newer versions of git are fine to be read by both
old and new versions of git. However, we still have the
problem of reading packed-refs files written by older
versions of git, or by other implementations which have not
yet learned the same trick.
The simplest fix would be to always unset the
REF_KNOWS_PEELED flag for refs outside of refs/tags that do
not have a peel line (if it has a peel line, we know it is
valid, but we cannot assume a missing peel line means
anything). But that loses an important optimization, as
upload-pack should not need to load the object pointed to by
refs/heads/foo to determine that it is not a tag.
Instead, we add a "fully-peeled" trait to the packed-refs
file. If it is set, we know that we can trust a missing peel
line to mean that a ref cannot be peeled. Otherwise, we fall
back to assuming nothing.

When we pack an annotated tag ref, we write not only the
sha1 of the tag object along with the ref, but also the sha1
obtained by peeling the tag. This lets readers of the
pack-refs file know the peeled value without having to
actually load the object, speeding up upload-pack's ref
advertisement.
The writer marks a packed-refs file with peeled refs using
the "peeled" trait at the top of the file. When the reader
sees this trait, it knows that each ref is either followed
by its peeled value, or it is not an annotated tag.
However, there is a mismatch between the assumptions of the
reader and writer. The writer will only peel refs under
refs/tags, but the reader does not know this; it will assume
a ref without a peeled value must not be a tag object. Thus
an annotated tag object placed outside of the refs/tags
hierarchy will not have its peeled value printed by
upload-pack.
The simplest way to fix this is to start writing peel values
for all refs. This matches what the reader expects for both
new and old versions of git.

Some call-sites do:
o = parse_object(sha1);
if (!o)
die("bad object %s", some_name);
We can now handle that as a one-liner, and get more
consistent output.
In the third case of this patch, it looks like we are losing
information, as the existing message also outputs the sha1
hex; however, parse_object will already have written a more
specific complaint about the sha1, so there is no point in
repeating it here.

Many call-sites of parse_object assume that they will get a
non-NULL return value; this is not the case if we encounter
an error while parsing the object.
This patch adds a wrapper function around parse_object that
handles dying automatically, and uses it anywhere we
immediately try to access the return value as a non-NULL
pointer (i.e., anywhere that we would currently segfault).
This wrapper may also be useful in other places. The most
obvious one is code like:
o = parse_object(sha1);
if (!o)
die(...);
However, these should not be mechanically converted to
parse_object_or_die, as the die message is sometimes
customized. Later patches can address these sites on a
case-by-case basis.

"git rev-parse" interprets string in string@{upstream} as a name of
a branch not a ref. For example, refs/heads/master@{upstream} looks
for an upstream branch that is merged by git-pull to ref
refs/heads/refs/heads/master not to refs/heads/master.
However the documentation could mislead a user to believe that the
string is interpreted as ref.

When looking up the stream filter, write_entry() should be passing the
path of the file in the repository, not the path to which the content is
going to be written. This allows the file to be correctly looked up
against the .gitattributes files in the working tree.
This change makes the streaming case match the non-streaming case which
passes ce->name to convert_to_working_tree later in the same function.
The two tests added here test the different paths through write_entry
since the CRLF filter is a streaming filter but the user-defined smudge
filter is not streamed.

A more informative message for "complete" bundles was added in commit
8c3710fd30 (tweak "bundle verify" of a complete history, 2012-06-04).
However, the prerequisites ref list is currently read *after* we
check if it equals zero, which means we never actually use the
number of prerequisite refs to decide when to print the newly
introduced message. The code incorrectly uses the number of
references recorded in the bundle instead.

Before 82dce99 (attr: more matching optimizations from .gitignore,
2012-10-15), .gitattributes did not have any special treatment of a
leading '!'. The docs, however, always said
The rules how the pattern matches paths are the same as in
`.gitignore` files; see linkgit:gitignore[5].
By those rules, leading '!' means pattern negation. So 82dce99
correctly determined that this kind of line makes no sense and should
be disallowed.
However, users who actually had a rule for files starting with a '!'
are in a bad position: before 82dce99 '!' matched that literal
character, so it is conceivable that users have .gitattributes with
such lines in them. After 82dce99 the unescaped version was
disallowed in such a way that git outright refuses to run(!) most
commands in the presence of such a .gitattributes. It therefore
becomes very hard to fix, let alone work with, such repositories.
Let's at least allow the users to fix their repos: change the fatal
error into a warning.
