a config option to ignore errors for git-add, 2008-05-12) does not
follow the usual convention for naming values in the git configuration
file.

What convention?  Glad you asked.

The section name indicates the affected subsystem.

The subsection name, if any, indicates which of
an unbound set of things to set the value for.

The variable name describes the effect of tweaking
this knob.

The section and variable names can be broken into
words using bumpyCaps in documentation as a hint to
the reader.  These word breaks are not significant
at the level of code, since the section and variable
names are not case sensitive.

The name "add.ignore-errors" includes a dash, meaning a naive
configuration file like

[add]
ignoreErrors

does not have any effect.  Avoid such confusion by renaming to the
more consistent add.ignoreErrors, but keep the old version for
backwards compatibility.

This patch takes a whole new approach, which is to describe
the sorts of conceptual operations you might want to

Documentation: document show -s

as far back as v0.99~900 (Silent flag for show-diff, 2005-04-13), but
the option is only advertised in an odd corner of the git diff-tree

apply: don't segfault on binary files with missing data

--binary, it will be rejected early, as we don't even have
the full sha1 of the pre- and post-images.

However, if the diff is generated with --full-index (but not
--binary), then we will actually try to apply it. If we have
the postimage blob, then we can take a shortcut and never
even look at the binary diff at all (e.g., this can happen
when rebasing changes within a repository).

If we don't have the postimage blob, though, we try to look
at the actual fragments, of which there are none, and get a
segfault. This patch checks explicitly for that case and
complains to the user instead of segfaulting. We need to
keep the check at a low level so that the "shortcut" case
above continues to work.

We also add a test that demonstrates the segfault. While

work around buggy S_ISxxx(m) implementations

There are buggy implementations of S_ISxxx(m) macros on some platforms
(e.g. NetBSD).  The issue is that NetBSD doesn't take care to wrap its
macro arguments in parentheses, so on Linux and sane systems we have
S_ISREG(m) defined as something like:

    (((m) & S_IFMT) == S_IFREG)

But on NetBSD:

    ((m & _S_IFMT) == _S_IFREG)

Since a caller in builtin/diff.c called our macro as `S_IFREG | 0644'
this bug introduced a logic error on NetBSD, since the precedence of
bit-wise & is higher than | in C.

Most of git is already shielded against this by the ctype
