This test script checks that git's plumbing commands quote filenames
with special characters like space, tab, and double-quote
appropriately in their input and output.
Since commit v1.7.9.2~13 (Use correct grammar in diffstat summary
line, 2012-02-01), the final "1 file changed, 1 insertion(+)" line
from diffstats is translatable, meaning tests that rely on exact "git
apply --stat" output have to be skipped when git is not configured to
produce output in the C locale (for example, when GETTEXT_POISON is
enabled). So:
- Tweak the three "git apply --stat" tests that check "git apply"'s
input parsing to use --numstat instead.
--numstat output is more reliable, does not vary with locale, and
is itself easier to parse. These tests are mainly about how "git
apply" parses its input so this should not result in much loss of
coverage.
- Add a new "apply --stat" test to check the quoting in --stat output
format.
This wins back a little of the test coverage lost with the patch
"test: use test_i18ncmp to check --stat output" when GETTEXT_POISON is
enabled.

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.
It was originally written by Linus Torvalds with help of a group of
hackers around the net. It is currently maintained by Junio C Hamano.
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://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=git and other archival
sites.
The messages titled "A note from the maintainer", "What's in
git.git (stable)" and "What's cooking in git.git (topics)" and
the discussion following them on the mailing list give a good
reference for project status, development direction and
remaining tasks.
