Documentation: add git user's manual
The goals are:
- Readable from beginning to end in order without having read
any other git documentation beforehand.
- Helpful section names and cross-references, so it's not too
hard to skip around some if you need to.
- Organized to allow it to grow much larger (unlike the
tutorials)
It's more liesurely than tutorial.txt, but tries to stay focused on
practical how-to stuff. It adds a discussion of how to resolve merge
conflicts, and partial instructions on setting up and dealing with a
public repository.
I've lifted a little bit from "branching and merging" (e.g., some of the
discussion of history diagrams), and could probably steal more if that's
OK. (Similarly anyone should of course feel free to reuse bits of this
if any parts seem more useful than the whole.)
There's a lot of detail on managing branches and using git-fetch, just
because those are essential even to people needing read-only access
(e.g., kernel testers). I think those sections will be much shorter
once the new "git remote" command and the disconnected checkouts are
taken into account.
I do feel bad about adding yet another piece of documentation, but I we
need something that goes through all the basics in a logical order, and
I wasn't seeing how to grow the tutorials into that.

gitweb: Fix split patches output (e.g. file to symlink)
Do not replace /dev/null in two-line from-file/to-file diff header for
split patches ("split" patch mean more than one patch per one

Set default "tar" umask to 002 and owner.group to root.root
In order to make the generated tar files more friendly to users who
extract them as root using GNU tar and its implied -p option, change
the default umask to 002 and change the owner name and group name to
root. This ensures that a) the extracted files and directories are
not world-writable and b) that they belong to user and group root.
Before they would have been assigned to a user and/or group named
git if it existed. This also answers the question in the removed
comment: uid=0, gid=0, uname=root, gname=root is exactly what we
want.
Normal users who let tar apply their umask while extracting are
only affected if their umask allowed the world to change their
files (e.g. a umask of zero). This case is so unlikely and strange
that we don't need to support it.

Blame "linenr" link jumps to previous state at "orig_lineno"
Blame currently displays the commit id which introduced a
block of one or more lines, the line numbers wrt the current
listing of the file and the file's line contents.
The commit id displayed is hyperlinked to the commit.
Currently the linenr links are hyperlinked to the same
commit id displayed to the left, which is _no_ different
than the block of lines displayed, since it is the _same
commit_ that is hyperlinked. And thus clicking on it leads
to the same state of the file for that chunk of
lines. I.e. data mining is not currently possible with
gitweb given a chunk of lines introduced by a commit.
This patch makes such data mining possible.
The line numbers are now hyperlinked to the parent of the
commit id of the block of lines. Furthermore they are
linked to the line where that block was introduced.
Thus clicking on a linenr link will show you the file's
line(s) state prior to the commit id you were viewing.
So clicking continually on a linenr link shows you how this
line and its line number changed over time, leading to the
initial commit where it was first introduced.

Fix infinite loop when deleting multiple packed refs.
It was stupid to link the same element twice to lock_file_list
and end up in a loop, so we certainly need a fix.
But it is not like we are taking a lock on multiple files in
this case. It is just that we leave the linked element on the
list even after commit_lock_file() successfully removes the
cruft.
We cannot remove the list element in commit_lock_file(); if we
are interrupted in the middle of list manipulation, the call to
remove_lock_file_on_signal() will happen with a broken list
structure pointed by lock_file_list, which would cause the cruft
to remain, so not removing the list element is the right thing
to do. Instead we should be reusing the element already on the
list.
There is already a code for that in lock_file() function in
lockfile.c. The code checks lk->next and the element is linked
only when it is not already on the list -- which is incorrect
for the last element on the list (which has NULL in its next
field), but if you read the check as "is this element already on
the list?" it actually makes sense. We do not want to link it
on the list again, nor we would want to set up signal/atexit
over and over.

fail pull/merge early in the middle of conflicted merge
After a pull that results in a conflicted merge, a new user
often tries another "git pull" in desperation. When the index
is unmerged, merge backends correctly bail out without touching
either index nor the working tree, so this does not make the
wound any worse.
The user will however see several lines of messsages during this
process, such as "filename: needs merge", "you need to resolve
your current index first", "Merging...", and "Entry ... would be
overwritten by merge. Cannot merge.". They are unnecessarily
alarming, and cause useful conflict messages from the first pull
scroll off the top of the terminal.
This changes pull and merge to run "git-ls-files -u" upfront and
stop them much earlier than we currently do. Old timers may
know better and would not to try pulling again before cleaning
things up; this change adds extra overhead that is unnecessary
for them. But this would be worth paying for to save new people
from needless confusion.

Use /dev/null for update hook stdin.
Currently the update hook invoked by receive-pack has its stdin
connected to the pushing client. The hook shouldn't attempt to
read from this stream, and doing so may consume data that was
meant for receive-pack. Instead we should give the update hook
/dev/null as its stdin, ensuring that it always receives EOF and
doesn't disrupt the protocol if it attempts to read any data.
The post-update hook is similar, as it gets invoked with /dev/null
on stdin to prevent the hook from reading data from the client.
Previously we had invoked it with stdout also connected to /dev/null,
throwing away anything on stdout, to prevent client protocol errors.

Redirect update hook stdout to stderr.
If an update hook outputs to stdout then that output will be sent
back over the wire to the push client as though it were part of
the git protocol. This tends to cause protocol errors on the
client end of the connection, as the hook output is not expected
in that context. Most hook developers work around this by making
sure their hook outputs everything to stderr.
But hooks shouldn't need to perform such special behavior. Instead

Automatically detect a bare git repository.
Many users find it unfriendly that they can create a bare git
repository easily with `git clone --bare` but are then unable to
run simple commands like `git log` once they cd into that newly
created bare repository. This occurs because we do not check to
see if the current working directory is a git repository.
Instead of failing out with "fatal: Not a git repository" we should
try to automatically detect if the current working directory is
a bare repository and use that for GIT_DIR, and fail out only if
that doesn't appear to be true.
We test the current working directory only after we have tried
searching up the directory tree. This is to retain backwards
compatibility with our previous behavior on the off chance that
a user has a 'refs' and 'objects' subdirectories and a 'HEAD'
file that looks like a symref, all stored within a repository's
associated working directory.
This change also consolidates the validation logic between the case
of GIT_DIR being supplied and GIT_DIR not being supplied, cleaning

Force core.filemode to false on Cygwin.
Many users have noticed that core.filemode doesn't appear to be
automatically set right on Cygwin when using a repository stored
on NTFS. The issue is that Cygwin and NTFS correctly supports
the executable mode bit, and Git properly detected that, but most
native Windows applications tend to create files such that Cygwin
sees the executable bit set when it probably shouldn't be.
This is especially bad if the user's favorite editor deletes the
file then recreates it whenever they save (vs. just overwriting)
as now a file that was created with mode 0644 by checkout-index
appears to have mode 0755.
So we introduce NO_TRUSTABLE_FILEMODE, settable at compile time.
Setting this option forces core.filemode to false, even if the
detection code would have returned true. This option should be
enabled by default on Cygwin.

Fix yet another subtle xdl_merge() bug
In very obscure cases, a merge can hit an unexpected code path (where the
original code went as far as saying that this was a bug). This failing
merge was noticed by Alexandre Juillard.
The problem is that the original file contains something like this:
-- snip --
two non-empty lines
before two empty lines
after two empty lines
-- snap --
and this snippet is reduced to _one_ empty line in _both_ new files.
However, it is ambiguous as to which hunk takes the empty line: the first
or the second one?
Indeed in Alexandre's example files, the xdiff algorithm attributes the
empty line to the first hunk in one case, and to the second hunk in the
other case.
(Trimming down the example files _changes_ that behaviour!)
Thus, the call to xdl_merge_cmp_lines() has no chance to realize that the
change is actually identical in both new files. Therefore,
xdl_refine_conflicts() finds an empty diff script, which was not expected
there, because (the original author of xdl_merge() thought)
xdl_merge_cmp_lines() would catch that case earlier.

Telling the git-log family not to do any character conversion is
done with --encoding=none, which sets log_output_encoding to an
empty string. However, logmsg_reencode() confused this with
log_output_encoding and commit_encoding set to NULL. The latter
means we should use the default encoding (i.e. utf-8).

send-pack: fix pipeline.
send-pack builds a pipeline that runs "rev-list | pack-objects"
and sends the output from pack-objects to the other side, while
feeding the input side of that pipe from itself. However, the
file descriptor that is given to this pipeline (so that it can
be dup2(2)'ed into file descriptor 1 of pack-objects) is closed
by the caller before the complex fork+exec dance! Worse yet,
the caller already dup2's it to 1, so the child process did not
even have to.
I do not understand how this code could possibly have been
working, but it somehow was working by accident.
Merging the sliding mmap() code reveals this problem, presumably
because it keeps one extra file descriptor open for a packfile
and changes the way file descriptors are allocated. I am too
tired to diagnose the problem now, but this seems to be a
sensible fix.

Fix 'git add' with .gitignore
When '*.ig' is ignored, and you have two files f.ig and d.ig/foo
in the working tree,
$ git add .
correctly ignored f.ig but failed to ignore d.ig/foo. This was
caused by a thinko in an earlier commit 4888c534, when we tried
to allow adding otherwise ignored files.
After reverting that commit, this takes a much simpler approach.
When we have an unmatched pathspec that talks about an existing
pathname, we know it is an ignored path the user tried to add,
so we include it in the set of paths directory walker returned.
This does not let you say "git add -f D" on an ignored directory
D and add everything under D. People can submit a patch to
further allow it if they want to, but I think it is a saner
behaviour to require explicit paths to be spelled out in such a
case.

Allow merging bare trees in merge-recursive.
To support wider use cases, such as from within `git am -3`, the
merge-recursive utility needs to accept not just commit-ish but
also tree-ish as arguments on its command line.
If given a tree-ish then merge-recursive will create a virtual commit
wrapping it, with the subject of the commit set to the best name we
can derive for that tree, which is either the command line string
(probably the SHA1), or whatever string appears in GITHEAD_*.
