Currently when git grep is used outside of a git repository without the
--no-index option git simply dies. For convenience, add a
grep.fallbackToNoIndex configuration variable. If set to true, git grep
behaves like git grep --no-index if it is run outside of a git
repository. It defaults to false, preserving the current behavior.

In shared repositories, we have to be careful when writing files whose
permissions do not allow users other than the owner to write them.
In particular, we force the marks file of fast-export and the FETCH_HEAD
when fetching to be rewritten from scratch.
This commit does not touch other calls to fopen() that want to
write files:
- commands that write to working tree files (core.sharedRepository
does not affect permission bits of working tree files),
e.g. .rej file created by "apply --reject", result of applying a
previous conflict resolution by "rerere", "git merge-file".
- git am, when splitting mails (git-am correctly cleans up its directory
after finishing, so there is no need to share those files between users)
- git submodule clone, when writing the .git file, because the file
will not be overwritten
- git_terminal_prompt() in compat/terminal.c, because it is not writing to
a file at all
- git diff --output, because the output file is clearly not intended to be
shared between the users of the current repository
- git fast-import, when writing a crash report, because the reports' file
names are unique due to an embedded process ID
- mailinfo() in mailinfo.c, because the output is clearly not intended to
be shared between the users of the current repository
- check_or_regenerate_marks() in remote-testsvn.c, because this is only
used for Git's internal testing
- git fsck, when writing lost&found blobs (this should probably be
changed, but left as a low-hanging fruit for future contributors).
Note that this patch does not touch callers of write_file() and
write_file_gently(), which would benefit from the same scrutiny as
to usage in shared repositories. Most notable users are branch,
daemon, submodule & worktree, and a worrisome call in transport.c
when updating one ref (which ignores the shared flag).

GIT_CEILING_DIRECTORIES doesn't prevent chdir up into another directory
while looking for a repository directory if it is equal to the current
directory. Because of this, the test which claims to test the git grep
--no-index command outside of a repository actually tests it inside of a
repository. The test_must_fail assertions still pass because the git
grep only looks at untracked files and therefore no file matches, but
not because it's run outside of a repository as it was originally
intended.
Set the GIT_CEILING_DIRECTORIES environment variable to the parent
directory of the directory in which the git grep command is executed, to
make sure it is actually run outside of a git repository.
In addition, the && chain was broken in a couple of places in the same
test, fix that.

git reflog (ab)uses the log machinery to display its list of log
entries. To do so it must fake commit parent information for the log
walker.
For refs in refs/heads this is no problem, as they should only ever
point to commits. Tags and other refs however can point to anything,
thus their reflog may contain non-commit objects.
To avoid segfaulting, we check whether reflog entries are commits before
feeding them to the log walker and skip any non-commits. This means that
git reflog output will be incomplete for such refs, but that's one step
up from segfaulting. A more complete solution would be to decouple git
reflog from the log walker machinery.

'git replace --edit' should error out when the invoked editor fails,
but the test checking this behavior would not notice if this weren't
the case.
The test in question, ever since it was added in 85f98fc037
(replace: add tests for --edit, 2014-05-17), has simulated a failing
editor in an unconventional way:
test_must_fail env GIT_EDITOR='./fakeeditor;false' git replace --edit
I presume the reason for this unconventional editor was the fact that
'git replace --edit' requires the edited object to be different from
the original, but a mere 'false' as editor would leave the object
unchanged and 'git replace --edit' would error out anyway complaining
about the new and the original object files being the same. Running
'fakeeditor' before 'false' was supposed to ensure that the object
file is modified and thus 'git replace --edit' errors out because of
the failed editor.
However, this editor doesn't actually modify the edited object,
because start_command() turns this editor into:
/bin/sh -c './fakeeditor;false "$@"' './fakeeditor;false' \
'.../.git/REPLACE_EDITOBJ'
This means that the test's fakeeditor script doesn't even get the path
of the object to be edited as argument, triggering error messages from
the commands executed inside the script ('sed' and 'mv'), and
ultimately leaving the object file unchanged.
If a patch were to remove the die() from the error path after
launch_editor(), the test would not catch it, because 'git replace'
would continue execution past launch_editor() and would error out a
bit later due to the unchanged edited object. Though 'git replace'
would error out for the wrong reason, this would satisfy
'test_must_fail' just as well, and the test would succeed leaving the
undesired change unnoticed.
Create a proper failing fake editor script for this test to ensure
that the edited object is in fact modified and 'git replace --edit'
won't error out because the new and original object files are the
same.

in the /etc/passwd file or other uid-to-name mappings), the
codepath to find who the user is to record it in the reflog barfed
and died. Loosen the check in this codepath, which already accepts
questionable ident string (e.g. host part of the e-mail address is
obviously bogus), and in general when we operate fmt_ident() function
in non-strict mode.
* jk/ident-loosen-getpwuid:
ident: loosen getpwuid error in non-strict mode
ident: keep a flag for bogus default_email
ident: make xgetpwuid_self() a static local helper
The completion script (in contrib/) used to list "git column"
(which is not an end-user facing command) as one of the choices
* sg/completion-no-column:
completion: remove 'git column' from porcelain commands
The Git CodingGuidelines prefer the $(...) construct for command
substitution instead of using the backquotes `...`.
The backquoted form is the traditional method for command
substitution, and is supported by POSIX. However, all but the
simplest uses become complicated quickly. In particular, embedded
command substitutions and/or the use of double quotes require
careful escaping with the backslash character.
The patch was generated by:
for _f in $(find . -name "*.sh")
do
perl -i -pe 'BEGIN{undef $/;} s/`(.+?)`/\$(\1)/smg' "${_f}"
done
and then carefully proof-read.
