operations may trigger a "whole file changed" diff, due to the workingdir
file now having LF EOLs.

An LF only conflict file results in the resolved file being in LF,
the commit is in LF and a warning saying that LF will be replaced

Port to 12 other Platforms.

The platforms are based on UNIX Systems Labs (USL)/Novell/SYS V code base.
The most common are Novell UnixWare 2.X.X, SCO UnixWare 7.X.X,
OpenServer 5.0.X, OpenServer 6.0.X, and SCO pre OSR 5 platforms.

Looking at the the various platform headers, I find:

#if defined(_KERNEL) || !defined(_POSIX_SOURCE) \
     && !defined(_POSIX_C_SOURCE) && !defined(_XOPEN_SOURCE)

which hides u_short and other typedefs that other header files on these
platforms depend on.  WIth _XOPEN_SOURCE defined, sources that include
system header files that depend on the typedefs such as u_short cannot be
compiled on these platforms.

__USLC__ indicates UNIX System Labs Corperation (USLC), or a Novell-derived
compiler and/or some SysV based OS's.

__M_UNIX indicates XENIX/SCO UNIX/OpenServer 5.0.7 and prior releases
of the SCO OS's.  It is used just like Apple and BSD, both of these

In git_header_html() we used to use $cgi->hidden(-name => "a") etc. to
generate hidden fields; unfortunately to use this form it is required
to modify $cgi->param("a") etc., which makes href(-replay,...) use
wrong replay values.  This for example made the "next" link on the
bottom of the page has a=search instead of a=$action, and thus fails to
get you to the next page.

Because in CGI the value of a hidden field is "sticky", there is no
way to modify it short of modifying $cgi->param(...).  Therefore it
got replaced by generating <input type="hidden" ...> element [semi]
directly.

Alternate solution would be for href(-replay,...) to use values saved

Fix path duplication in git svn commit-diff

Given an SVN repo file:///tmp/svntest/repo, trying to commit changes
to a file proj/trunk/foo.txt in that repo with this command line

  git svn commit-diff -r2 HEAD^ HEAD file:///tmp/svntest/repo/proj/trunk

gave the error message

  Filesystem has no item: File not found: transaction '2-6', path
  '/proj/trunk/proj/trunk/foo.txt'

This fixes the duplication.

Make "git-remote rm" delete refs acccording to fetch specs

A remote may be configured to fetch into tracking branches that
don't match its name.  A user may have created a remote by hand
that will fetch to a different tracking branch namespace:

  [remote "alt"]

When deleting remote alt we should clean up the refs whose names
start with "refs/remotes/origin/", even though the remote itself
was named alt by the user.

To avoid deleting refs used by another remote we only clear refs
that are unique to this remote.  This prevents `git prune rm alt`
from removing the refs used by say origin if alt was just using a
different URL for the same repository.

When unpack_trees() returned an error while switching branches, we used to
stop right there, exiting without writing the index out or switching HEAD.

This is Ok when unpack_trees() returned an error because it detected
untracked files or locally modified paths that could be overwritten by
branch switching, because that error return is done before we start to
modify the work tree.  But it is undesirable if unpack_trees() already
started to update the work tree and a failure is returned because some but
not all paths are updated in the work tree, perhaps because a directory
that some files need to go in was read-only by mistake, or a file that
will be overwritten by branch switching had a mandatory lock on it and we
failed to unlink it.

This changes the behaviour upon such an error to complete the branch
switching; the files updated in the work tree will hopefully be much more
consistent with the index and HEAD derived from the switched-to branch.

We still issue error messages, and exit the command with non-zero status,
so scripted callers need to notice it.
