builtin/merge_recursive.c: Add an usage string and make use of it.

This improves the usage output by adding builtin_merge_recursive_usage string
that follows the same pattern used by the other builtin commands.

The previous output for git merger-recursive was:
usage: merge-recursive <base>... -- <head> <remote> ...

Now the output is:
usage: git merge-recursive <base>... -- <head> <remote> ...

Since cmd_merge_recursive is used to handle four different commands we need
the %s in the usage string, so the following example:

$ git merge-subtree -h

Will output:

Fix 'git log' early pager startup error case

We start the pager too early for several git commands, which results in
the errors sometimes going to the pager rather than show up as errors.

This is often hidden by the fact that we pass in '-X' to less by default,
which causes 'less' to exit for small output, but if you do

  export LESS=-S

you can then clearly see the problem by doing

  git log --prretty

which shows the error message ("fatal: unrecognized argument: --prretty")
being sent to the pager.

This happens for pretty much all git commands that use USE_PAGER, and then
check arguments separately. But "git diff" does it too early too (even
though it does an explicit setup_pager() call)

fix >4GiB source delta assertion failure

When people try insane things such as delta-compressing 4GiB files, they
get this assertion:

diff-delta.c:285: create_delta_index: Assertion `packed_entry - (struct index_entry *)mem == entries' failed.

This happens because:

1) the 'entries' variable is an unsigned int

2) it is assigned with entries = (bufsize - 1) / RABIN_WINDOW
   (that itself is not a problem unless bufsize > 4G * RABIN_WINDOW)

3) the buffer is indexed from top to bottom starting at
   "data = buffer + entries * RABIN_WINDOW" and the multiplication
   here does indeed overflows, making the resulting top of the buffer
   much lower than expected.

This makes the number of actually produced index entries smaller than
what was computed initially, hence the assertion.

Furthermore, the current delta encoding format cannot represent offsets
into a reference buffer with more than 32 bits anyway.  So let's just
limit the number of entries to what the delta format can encode.

apply: handle traditional patches with space in filename

To discover filenames from the --- and +++ lines in a traditional
unified diff, currently "git apply" scans forward for a whitespace
character on each line and stops there.  It can't use the whole line
because "diff -u" likes to include timestamps, like so:

 --- foo 2000-07-12 16:56:50.020000414 -0500
 +++ bar 2010-07-12 16:56:50.020000414 -0500

The whitespace-seeking heuristic works great, even when the tab
has been converted to spaces by some email + copy-and-paste
related corruption.

Except for one problem: if the filename itself contains whitespace,
the inferred filename will be too short.

When Giuseppe ran into this problem, it was for a file creation
patch (for debian/licenses/LICENSE.global BSD-style Chromium).
So one can't use the list of files present in the index to deduce an
appropriate filename (not to mention that way lies madness; see
v0.99~402, 2005-05-31).

Instead, look for a timestamp and use that if present to mark the end
of the filename.  If no timestamp is present, the old heuristic is
used, with one exception: the space character \040 is not considered
terminating whitespace any more unless it is followed by a timestamp.

tests: exercise "git apply" with weird filenames

Check that "git apply" can cope with strange filenames, particularly
filenames with spaces.

Not all platforms have a sane enough diff -u and expand to
reliably create the such patches and maybe future versions of GNU
diff will handle funny characters differently, so this uses
pre-generated patches.  The script used to generate them is in
t/t4135/make-patches.

Filenames with tabs are not usable on NTFS; use something like the
FUNNYNAMES prerequisite from v1.3.0-rc1~67 (2006-03-03) to skip the
relevant tests when appropriate.  The detection is not shared in
test-lib.sh to avoid wasting time while running other test scripts.

Backslash is the path separator on Windows, so do not used it in
file names there (v1.6.3-rc0~93^2~6, 2009-03-13).

Finally, filenames starting with a quotation mark do not behave well
in msys (see v1.7.0-rc0~94^2, t4030, t4031: work around bogus MSYS

Documentation: remove stray backslash in show-branch discussion

Because there is no unescaped apostrophe to pair it with, asciidoc
does not consider this apostrophe a candidate for escaping and
the backslash passes through.
