Jeff King a18fcc9ff2 fsck: complain about HFS+ ".git" aliases in trees Now that the index can block pathnames that case-fold to ".git" on HFS+, it would be helpful for fsck to notice such problematic paths. This lets servers which use receive.fsckObjects block them before the damage spreads. Note that the fsck check is always on, even for systems without core.protectHFS set. This is technically more restrictive than we need to be, as a set of users on ext4 could happily use these odd filenames without caring about HFS+. However, on balance, it's helpful for all servers to block these (because the paths can be used for mischief, and servers which bother to fsck would want to stop the spread whether they are on HFS+ themselves or not), and hardly anybody will be affected (because the blocked names are variants of .git with invisible Unicode code-points mixed in, meaning mischief is almost certainly what the tree author had in mind). Ideally these would be controlled by a separate "fsck.protectHFS" flag. However, it would be much nicer to be able to enable/disable _any_ fsck flag individually, and any scheme we choose should match such a system. Given the likelihood of anybody using such a path in practice, it is not unreasonable to wait until such a system materializes.

	Git - the stupid content tracker

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

"git" can mean anything, depending on your mood.

 - random three-letter combination that is pronounceable, and not
   actually used by any common UNIX command.  The fact that it is a
   mispronunciation of "get" may or may not be relevant.
 - stupid. contemptible and despicable. simple. Take your pick from the
   dictionary of slang.
 - "global information tracker": you're in a good mood, and it actually
   works for you. Angels sing, and a light suddenly fills the room.
 - "goddamn idiotic truckload of sh*t": when it breaks

Git is a fast, scalable, distributed revision control system with an
unusually rich command set that provides both high-level operations
and full access to internals.

Git is an Open Source project covered by the GNU General Public
License version 2 (some parts of it are under different licenses,
compatible with the GPLv2). It was originally written by Linus
Torvalds with help of a group of hackers around the net.

Please read the file INSTALL for installation instructions.

See Documentation/gittutorial.txt to get started, then see
Documentation/everyday.txt for a useful minimum set of commands, and
Documentation/git-commandname.txt for documentation of each command.
If git has been correctly installed, then the tutorial can also be
read with "man gittutorial" or "git help tutorial", and the
documentation of each command with "man git-commandname" or "git help
commandname".

CVS users may also want to read Documentation/gitcvs-migration.txt
("man gitcvs-migration" or "git help cvs-migration" if git is
installed).

Many Git online resources are accessible from http://git-scm.com/
including full documentation and Git related tools.

The user discussion and development of Git take place on the Git
mailing list -- everyone is welcome to post bug reports, feature
requests, comments and patches to git@vger.kernel.org (read
Documentation/SubmittingPatches for instructions on patch submission).
To subscribe to the list, send an email with just "subscribe git" in
the body to majordomo@vger.kernel.org. The mailing list archives are
available at http://news.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/,
http://marc.info/?l=git and other archival sites.

The maintainer frequently sends the "What's cooking" reports that
list the current status of various development topics to the mailing
list.  The discussion following them give a good reference for
project status, development direction and remaining tasks.
