diff --follow: do call diffcore_std() as necessary

Usually, diff frontends populate the output queue with filepairs without
any rename information and call diffcore_std() to sort the renames out.
When --follow is in effect, however, diff-tree family of frontend has a
hack that looks like this:

    diff-tree frontend
    -> diff_tree_sha1()
       . populate diff_queued_diff
       . if --follow is in effect and there is only one change that
         creates the target path, then
       -> try_to_follow_renames()
  -> diff_tree_sha1() with no pathspec but with -C
  -> diffcore_std() to find renames
  . if rename is found, tweak diff_queued_diff and put a
    single filepair that records the found rename there
    -> diffcore_std()
       . tweak elements on diff_queued_diff by
       - rename detection
       - path ordering
       - pickaxe filtering

We need to skip parts of the second call to diffcore_std() that is related
to rename detection, and do so only when try_to_follow_renames() did find
a rename.  Earlier 1da6175 (Make diffcore_std only can run once before a
diff_flush, 2010-05-06) tried to deal with this issue incorrectly; it
unconditionally disabled any second call to diffcore_std().

This hopefully fixes the breakage.

source hierarchy, e.g. "platform/", but the rename source is in a totally
different place in the destination hierarchy, e.g. "lang-api/src/com/...",
running "try_to_find_renames()" while base is set to "platform/" is a

diff: strip extra "/" when stripping prefix

There are two ways a user might want to use "diff --relative":

  1. For a file in a directory, like "subdir/file", the user
     can use "--relative=subdir/" to strip the directory.

  2. To strip part of a filename, like "foo-10", they can
     use "--relative=foo-".

We currently handle both of those situations. However, if the user passes
"--relative=subdir" (without the trailing slash), we produce inconsistent
results. For the unified diff format, we collapse the double-slash of
"a//file" correctly into "a/file". But for other formats (raw, stat,
name-status), we end up with "/file".

We can do what the user means here and strip the extra "/" (and only a
slash).  We are not hurting any existing users of (2) above with this
behavior change because the existing output for this case was nonsensical.

imap-send: Fix sprintf usage

When composing a command for the imap server, imap-send uses a single
nfsnprintf() invocation for brevity instead of dealing separately with
the case when there is a message to be sent and the case when there
isn’t.  The unused argument in the second case, while valid, is
confusing for static analyzers and human readers.

v1.6.4-rc0~117 (imap-send: add support for IPv6, 2009-05-25)
mistakenly used %hu as the format for an int “port”, by analogy with
existing usage for the unsigned short “addr.sin_port”.  Use %d
instead.

Documentation: flesh out “git pull” description

The current description in the pull man page does not say much more
than that “git pull” is fetch + merge.  Though that is all a person
needs to know in the end, it would be useful to summarize a bit about
what those commands do for new readers.

Most of this description is taken from the “git merge” docs.

Now that we explain how to back out of a failed merge (reset --merge),
we can tone down the warning against that a bit.

Except, as Thomas noticed, there’s a risk with that because people
might read this version of the manpage online and then conclude that
it is safe to try a merge with uncommitted changes, only to find that
their “git reset” doesn't support --merge yet.  Or worse, verify that
their git-reset has --merge by a quick test (1b5b465 is in 1.6.2) but
then find that it does not help with backing out of a merge (e11d7b5
is only in 1.7.0!).  So keep the warning.

With clarifications from Ævar, Thomas, and Junio.

xsize_t: check whether we lose bits

Attempting to mmap (via git-add or similar) a file larger than 4GB on
32-bit Linux systems results in a repository that has only the file
modulo 4GB stored, because of truncation of the off_t file size to a
size_t for mmap.

When xsize_t was introduced to handle this truncation in dc49cd7 (Cast
64 bit off_t to 32 bit size_t, 2007-03-06), Shawn even pointed out
that it should detect when such a cutoff happens.

Make it so.

Fix git rebase --continue to work with touched files

When performing a non-interactive rebase, sometimes
"git rebase --continue" will fail if an unmodified file is
touched in the working directory:

    You must edit all merge conflicts and then
    mark them as resolved using git add

This is caused by "git diff-files" reporting a difference
between the index and the filesystem:

The fix is to run "git update-index --refresh" before
"git diff-files" as is done in git-rebase--interactive.

git-rebase--interactive.sh: use printf instead of echo to print commit message

On systems with an echo which defaults to the XSI-conformant behavior
(Solaris, or others using Ksh), echo will interpret certain backslashed
characters as control sequences.  This can cause a problem for interactive
rebase when it is used to rebase commits whose commit "subject" (the first
line) contains any of these backslashed sequences.  In this case, echo will
substitute the control sequence for the backslashed characters and either
the rebased commit message will differ from the original, or the rebase
process will fail.  Neither is desirable.

So work around this issue by replacing the echo statements used to print
out portions of the commit message, with printf.

Also, add a test to test for this breakage.
