Pushing into the currently checked out branch of a non-bare
repository can be dangerous; the HEAD then loses sync with
the index and working tree, and it looks in the receiving
repo as if the pushed changes have been reverted in the
index (since they were never there in the first place).
This patch adds a safety valve that checks for this
condition and either generates a warning or denies the
update. We trigger the check only on a non-bare repository,
since a bare repo does not have a working tree (and in fact,
pushing to the HEAD branch is a common workflow for
publishing repositories).
The behavior is configurable via receive.denyCurrentBranch,
defaulting to "warn" so as not to break existing setups
(though it may, after a deprecation period, switch to
"refuse" by default). For users who know what they are doing
and want to silence the warning (e.g., because they have a
post-receive hook that reconciles the HEAD and working
tree), they can turn off the warning by setting it to false
or "ignore".

t5516 sets up some utility functions for starting each test
with a clean slate. However, there were a few tests added
that do not use these functions, but instead make their own
repositories.
Let's bring these in line with the rest of the tests. Not
only do we reduce the number of lines, but these tests will
benefit from any further enhancements to the utility
scripts.
The conversion is pretty straightforward. Most of the tests
created a parent/child clone relationship, for which we now
use 'testrepo' as the parent. One test looked in testrepo,
but relied on previous tests to have set it up; it now sets
up testrepo explicitly, which makes it a bit more robust to
changes in the script, as well.

ModPerl::Registry precompiles scripts by wrapping them
in a subroutine. This causes ordinary subroutines of the
script to become nested, and warnings appear:
gitweb.cgi: Variable "$path_info" will not stay shared
This warning means that $path_info was declared as 'my',
and thus according to the perl evaluation rules all nested
subroutines will retain a reference to the instance of the
variable used in the first invocation of the master script.
When the script (i.e. the master meta-subroutine) is executed
the second time, it will use a new instance, so the logic
breaks. To avoid this it is necessary to declare all global
variables as 'our', which places them at the package level.

Add a configuration variable that can be used to specify an
arbitrary subroutine that will be called in the same situations
where $export_ok is checked, and its return value used
to decide whether the repository is to be shown.
This allows the user to implement custom authentication
schemes, for example by issuing a subrequest through mod_perl
and checking if Apache will authorize it.

GitWeb source contains a special function that implements the

Apparently, CREATE_NO_WINDOW makes the OS tell the process
that it has a console, but without actually creating the
window. As a result, when git is started from GUI, ssh
tries to ask its questions on the invisible console.
This patch uses DETACHED_PROCESS instead, which clearly
means that the process should be left without a console.
The downside is that if the process manually calls
AllocConsole, the window will appear. A similar thing
might occur if it calls another console executable.

Update configure.ac to test libraries for getaddrinfo, strcasestr, memmem,
strlcpy, strtoumax, setenv, unsetenv, and mkdtemp. The default compilers
on FreeBSD 4.9-SECURITY and FreeBSD 6.2-RELEASE-p4 do not generate warnings
for missing prototypes unless `-Wall' is used. This behavior renders the
results of AC_CHECK_FUNC() void on these platforms. The test AC_SEARCH_LIBS()
verifies a function is valid by linking to symbol within the system libraries.
Since this pattern needs to be repeated for many functions that are
checked with AC_CHECK_FUNC(), we add GIT_CHECK_FUNC() to drive the two
autoconf macros together.

The current behavior of git-daemon is to simply close the connection on
any error condition. This leaves the client without any information as
to the cause of the failed fetch/push/etc.
This patch allows get_remote_heads to accept a line prefixed with "ERR"
that it can display to the user in an informative fashion. Once clients
can understand this ERR line, git-daemon can be made to properly report
"repository not found", "permission denied", or other errors.

S: ERR No matching repository.
C: fatal: remote error: No matching repository.
