Isabella Caselli a13fc94041 var: add GIT_HOSTNAME ... Git asks the system for the name of the machine it runs on in a few places. For example, "git gc" records it in "gc.pid" to tell whether the gc holding the lock runs on the same machine. Users have no way to see which name Git uses, and depending on how the system is configured, it may be a short name ("myhost") or a fully qualified one ("myhost.example.com"). This matters more once the config can depend on the hostname, which a later commit adds as an includeIf condition. Without a way to see the value Git uses, users would have to guess what to write in their config file. Add a GIT_HOSTNAME variable to "git var" that prints the hostname Git sees. If the hostname can't be determined, "git var GIT_HOSTNAME" exits with a non-zero status, and "git var -l" omits the variable instead of failing. An option to "git config" to show the hostname was also discussed, but "git var" was chosen, since the hostname is not specific to the configuration code. The test only checks that a non-empty value is printed. The test has no independent way to know the expected hostname, as the "hostname" command may not agree with what Git sees on every platform. The includeIf tests added later check that the value matches what the configuration code uses.
