According to the similar patch from David Kågedal [1], "this will make
it a little less posix-dependent and more efficient." However, there
are two other areas that need to replaced, namely
git-run-command-region and git-run-hooks. This patch implements the
changes of [1] onto those Emacs Lisp functions.
If unpatched, using the git port "msysgit" on Windows will require
defadvice changes as shown at [2] (also explained at 4msysgit.git
[3]).
I have tested git-run-command-region on msysgit, because this is
always called by git-commit (via git-commit-tree <- git-do-commit <-
git-commit-file). However, I could not test git-run-hooks because it
currently does not work on the Emacs Windows port. The latter reports
the hooks files as a+rw and a-x, despite msysgit and cygwin chmod
setting on the respective files.

gitweb: Fix 'history' view for deleted files with history
Document that WebDAV doesn't need git on the server, and works over SSL
git-remote: reject adding remotes with invalid names
am: POSIX portability fix
When asked for history of a file which is not present in given branch
("HEAD", i.e. current branch, or given by transient $hash_hase ('hb')
parameter), but is present deeper in the history (meaning that "git
rev-list --full-history $hash_base -- $file_name" is not empty), and
there is no $hash ('h') parameter set for a file, gitweb would spew
multiple of "Use of uninitialized value" warnings, and some links
would be missing. This commit fixes this bug.
This bug occurs in the rare cases when "git log -- <path>" is empty
and "git log --full-history -- <path>" is not, or to be more exact in
the cases when full-history starts later than given branch. It can
happen if you are using handcrafted gitwb URL, or if you follow
generic 'history' link or bookmark for a file which got deleted.
Gitweb tried to get file type ('tree', or 'blob', or even 'commit')
from the commit we start searching from (where the file was not
present), and not among found commits. This was the cause of "Use of
uninitialized value" warnings.
This commit also add tests for such situation to t9500 test.
While we are it, return HTTP error if there is _no_ history; it means
that file or directory was not found (for given branch). Also error
out if type of item could not be found: it should not happen now, but
better be sure.

I managed to set up a Git repository on a preconfigured WebDAV server,
and using HTTPS, without installing Git on it or changing the server
configuration. This works through a proxy too. This patch reflects
this (it previously stated that Git was _necessary_ on the server,
which isn't true). Also give a few hints to troubleshoting.

This can happen if the arguments to git-remote add is switched by the
user, and git would only show an error if fetching was also requested.
Fix it by using the refspec parsing engine to check if the requested
name can be parsed as a remote before add it.
Also cleanup so that the "remote.<name>.url" config name buffer is only
initialized once.

POSIX allows echo without flag to interpret specials such as \n, and we
tried to make things portable by using printf instead where it matters.
Recently added code to "git am" had unprotected "echo", which was caught

Traditionally git-rebase was implemented in terms of "format-patch" piped
to "am -3", to strike balance between speed (because it avoids a rather
expensive read-tree/merge-recursive machinery most of the time) and
flexibility (the magic "-3" allows it to fall back to 3-way merge as
necessary). However, this combination has one flaw when dealing with a
nonstandard commit log message format that has more than one lines in the
first paragraph.
This teaches "git am --rebasing" to take advantage of the fact that the
mbox message "git rebase" prepares for it records the original commit
object name, to get the log message from the original commit object
instead.

Clarify documentation of git-cvsserver, particularly in relation to git-shell
Before this patch, when "git bisect start", "git bisect good" or
"git bisect skip" were called with many revisions, they could fail
after having already marked some revisions as "good", "bad" or
"skip".
This could be especilally bad for "git bisect start" because as
the file ".git/BISECT_NAMES" would not have been written, there
would have been no attempt to clear the marked revisions on a
"git bisect reset". That's because if there is no
".git/BISECT_NAMES" file, nothing is done to clean things up, as
the bisect session is not supposed to have started.
While at it, let's also create the ".git/BISECT_START" file, only
after ".git/BISECT_NAMES" as been created.

When the Subject: line is empty for whatever reason, git-am was fooled by
it and left an empty line at the beginning of the resulting commit log
message.
This moves the logic around so that we do not keep $SUBJECT in a separate
variable. Instead, $dotest/msg-clean, which used to be the log message
body extracted from the message and then trailing whitespaces cleansed
out, now contains the subject line followed by a blank line at the
beginning for normal messages, and we use the first line from the file as
the summary line throughout the program.

To get the current HEAD when we start bisecting using for example
"git bisect start", we first try "git symbolic-ref HEAD" to get a
nice name, and if it fails, we fall back to "git rev-parse
--verify HEAD".
The problem is that when "git symbolic-ref HEAD" fails, it
displays "fatal: ref HEAD not a symref", so it looks like "git
bisect start" failed and does not accept detached HEAD, even if
in fact it worked fine.
This patch adds "-q" option to the "git symbolic-ref" call to
get rid of the misleading error message.

For SSH clients restricted to git-shell, CVS_SERVER does not have to be
specified, because git-shell understands the default value of 'cvs' to
mean git-cvsserver'. This makes it totally transparent to CVS users, but
the instruction to set up CVS access for people with real shell access
does not apply.
Previous wording mentioning GIT_AUTHOR, GIT_COMMITTER variables was
unclear that we really meant GIT_AUTHOR_(NAME|EMAIL), etc.
Note that the .ssh/environment file is a good place to set these, and that
the .bashrc is shell-specific. Add a bit of text to differentiate cvs -d
(setting CVSROOT) from cvs co -d (setting the name of the newly checked
out directory). Removed an extra 'Example:' string.

git clean: Add test to verify directories aren't removed with a prefix
git clean: Don't automatically remove directories when run within subdirectory
git-submodule - possibly use branch name to describe a module
When git clean is run from a subdirectory it should follow the normal
policy and only remove directories if they are passed in as a pathspec,
or -d is specified.
The fix is to send len which could be shorter than ent->len because we
have stripped the trailing '/' that read_directory adds. Additionaly
match_one() was modified to allow a name[] that is not NUL terminated.
This allows us to check if the name matched the pathspec exactly
instead of recursively.

This changes the search logic for describing a submodule from:
- annotated tag
- any tag
- tag on a subsequent commit
- commit id
to
- annotated tag
- any tag
- tag on a subsequent commit
- local or remote branch
- commit id
The change is describing with respect to a branch before falling
back to the commit id. By itself, git-submodule will maintain submodules
as headless checkouts without ever making a local branch. In
general, such heads can always be described relative to the remote branch
regardless of existence of tags, and so provides a better fallback
summary than just the commit id.
This requires inserting an extra describe step as --contains is
incompatible with --all, but the latter can be used with --always
to fall back to a commit ID. Also, --contains implies --tags, so the
latter is not needed.

This commit teaches 'git commit/status' show a new 'Modified submodules'
section, which is an output from:
git submodule summary --cached --for-status --summary-limit <limit>
just before the 'Untracked files' section.
The <limit> is given by the config variable status.submodulesummary
to limit the submodule summary size. status.submodulesummary is a
bool/int variable with value:
- false or 0 by default to disable the summary, or
- positive number to limit the summary size, or
- true or negative number to unlimit the summary size.
Also mention status.submodulesummary in the documentation.
