Often a fast-import stream builds a new commit on top of the
previous commit it built, and it often unconditionally emits a
"from" command to specify the first parent, which can be omitted in
such a case. This caused fast-import to forget the tree of the
previous commit and then re-read it from scratch, which was
inefficient. Optimize for this common case.

The "rev-parse --parseopt" mode parsed the option specification
and the argument hint in a strange way to allow '=' and other
special characters in the option name while forbidding them from
the argument hint. This made it impossible to define an option

which instead would have defined a "--pair=key <value>" option.

When Git was young, people looking for third-party Git-related tools
came to the Git project itself to find them, so it made sense to
maintain a list of tools here. These days, however, search engines fill
that role much more efficiently, so retire the manually-maintained
list.
The list of front-ends and tools on the Git wiki rates perhaps a distant
second to search engines, and may still have value, so retain a
reference to it.

These days, the best way to find Git-related tools is via a search
engine. The Git wiki may be a distant second, and git-tools.txt falls in
last place. Therefore, promote the Git wiki reference to the top of
git-tools.txt so the reader will encounter it first, rather than hiding
it away at the very bottom.

We used to ask libCURL to use the most secure authentication method
available when talking to an HTTP proxy only when we were told to
talk to one via configuration variables. We now ask libCURL to

without using configuration variables.

When you say "!<ENTER>" while running say "git log", you'd confuse
yourself in the resulting shell, that may look as if you took
control back to the original shell you spawned "git log" from but
that isn't what is happening. To that new shell, we leaked
GIT_PAGER_IN_USE environment variable that was meant as a local
communication between the original "Git" and subprocesses that was
spawned by it after we launched the pager, which caused many
"interesting" things to happen, e.g. "git diff | cat" still paints
its output in color by default.
Stop leaking that environment variable to the pager's half of the
fork; we only need it on "Git" side when we spawn the pager.

Cogito hasn't been maintained since late 2006, so drop the reference

It used to be possible to apply a patch series with "git am mbox"
and then only after seeing a failure, switch to three-way mode via
"git am -3" (no other options or arguments). The commit being

git-subtree's log format string uses "%ad" and "%cd", which
respect the user's configured log.date value.
This is problematic for git-subtree because it needs to use real
dates so that copied commits come through unchanged.
Add a test and tweak the format strings to use %aD and %cD
so that the default date format is used instead.

If HEAD of a repository points to a conflict reference, such as:
* There exist a reference named 'refs/heads/jx/feature1', but HEAD
points to 'refs/heads/jx', or
* There exist a reference named 'refs/heads/feature', but HEAD points
to 'refs/heads/feature/bad'.
When we push to delete a reference for this repo, such as:
git push /path/to/bad-head-repo.git :some/good/reference
The git-receive-pack process will crash.
This is because if HEAD points to a conflict reference, the function
`resolve_refdup("HEAD", ...)` does not return a valid reference name,
but a null buffer. Later matching the delete reference against the null
buffer will cause git-receive-pack crash.

When git-send-pack is exec'ed, as is done by git-remote-http, it
does not read the config, and configured value of user.signingkey is
ignored. Thus it was impossible to specify a signing key over HTTP,
other than the default key in the keyring having a User ID matching
the "Name <email>" format.
This patch at least partially fixes the problem by reading in the GPG
config from within send-pack. It does not address the related problem
of plumbing a value for this configuration option using
`git -c user.signingkey push ...`.

Don't update files in the worktree from cache entries which are
flagged with CE_WT_REMOVE.
When a user does a sparse checkout, git removes files that are
marked with CE_WT_REMOVE (because they are out-of-scope for the
sparse checkout). If those files are also marked CE_UPDATE (for
instance, because they differ in the branch that is being checked
out and the outgoing branch), git would previously recreate them.
This patch prevents them from being recreated.
These erroneously-created files would also interfere with merges,
causing pre-merge revisions of out-of-scope files to appear in the
worktree.
apply_sparse_checkout() is the function where all "action"
manipulation (add, delete, update files..) for sparse checkout
occurs; it should not ask to delete and update both at the same
time.
