Simplify parsing branch switching events in reflog
We only accept "checkout: moving from A to B" newer style reflog entries,
in order to pick up A. There is no point computing where B begins at
after running strstr to locate " to ", nor adding 4 and then subtracting 4
from the same pointer.

Introduce for_each_recent_reflog_ent().
This can be used to scan only the last few kilobytes of a reflog, as a
cheap optimization when the data you are looking for is likely to be
found near the end of it. The caller is expected to fall back to the
full scan if that is not the case.

interpret_nth_last_branch(): avoid traversing the reflog twice
You can have quite a many reflog entries, but you typically won't recall
which branch you were on after switching branches for more than several
times.
Instead of reading the reflog twice, this reads the branch switching event
and keeps as many entries as the user asked from the latest such entries,
which is the minimum required to be able to switch back to the branch we
were recently on.

Under "set -u" semantics, it is an error to access undefined variables.
Some user environments may enable this setting in the interactive shell.
In any context where the completion functions access an undefined
variable, accessing a default empty string (aka "${1-}" instead of "$1")
is a reasonable way to code the function, as it silences the undefined
variable error while still supplying an empty string.
In this patch, functions that should always take an argument still use
$1. Functions that have optional arguments use ${1-}.

Cleanup of unused symcache variable inside diff-lib.c
Commit c40641b77b0274186fd1b327d5dc3246f814aaaf, 'Optimize
symlink/directory detection' by Linus Torvalds, removed the 'char
*symcache' parameter to the has_symlink_leading_path() function. This
made all variables currently named 'symcache' inside diff-lib.c
unnecessary.
This also let us throw away the 'struct oneway_unpack_data', and
instead directly use the 'struct rev_info *revs' member, which
was the only member left after removal of the 'symcache[] array'
member. The 'struct oneway_unpack_data' was introduced by the
following commit:
948dd346 "diff-files: careful when inspecting work tree items"
Impact: cleanup
PATH_MAX bytes less memory stack usage in some cases

t7501-commit.sh: explicitly check that -F prevents invoking the editor
The "--signoff" test case in t7500-commit.sh was setting VISUAL while
using -F -, which indeed tested that the editor is not spawned with -F.
However, having it there was confusing, since there was no obvious reason
to the casual reader for it to be there.
This commits removes the setting of VISUAL from the --signoff test, and
adds in t7501-commit.sh a dedicated test case, where the rest of tests for
-F are.

filter-branch: add git_commit_non_empty_tree and --prune-empty.
git_commit_non_empty_tree is added to the functions that can be run from
commit filters. Its effect is to commit only commits actually touching the
tree and that are not merge points either.
The option --prune-empty is added. It defaults the commit-filter to
'git_commit_non_empty_tree "$@"', and can be used with any other
combination of filters, except --commit-hook that must used
'git_commit_non_empty_tree "$@"' where one puts 'git commit-tree "$@"'

strbuf: instate cleanup rule in case of non-memory errors
Make all strbuf functions that can fail free() their memory on error if
they have allocated it. They don't shrink buffers that have been grown,
though.
This allows for easier error handling, as callers only need to call
strbuf_release() if A) the command succeeded or B) if they would have had
to do so anyway because they added something to the strbuf themselves.
Bonus hunk: document strbuf_readlink.

unpack-trees: remove redundant path search in verify_absent
Since the only caller, verify_absent, relies on the fact that o->pos
points to the next index entry anyways, there is no need to recompute
its position.
Furthermore, if a nondirectory entry were found, this would return too
early, because there could still be an untracked directory in the way.
This is currently not a problem, because verify_absent is only called
if the index does not have this entry.

unpack-trees: fix path search bug in verify_absent
Commit 0cf73755 (unpack-trees.c: assume submodules are clean during
check-out) changed an argument to verify_absent from 'path' to 'ce',
which is however shadowed by a local variable of the same name.
The bug triggers if verify_absent is used on a tree entry, for which
the index contains one or more subsequent directories of the same
length. The affected subdirectories are removed from the index. The
testcase included in this commit bisects to 55218834 (checkout: do not
lose staged removal), which reveals the bug in this case, but is
otherwise unrelated.

cvsserver: change generation of CVS author names
CVS username is generated from local part email address.
We take the whole local part but restrict the character set to the
Portable Filename Character Set, which is used for Unix login names
according to Single Unix Specification v3.
This will obviously report different usernames from existing repositories
for commits with the local part of the author e-mail address that contains
characters outside the PFCS. Hopefully this won't break an old CVS
checkout from an earlier version of git-cvsserver, because the names are
always shown afresh to the CVS clients and not kept on the client side.
