Newcomers to git that want to remove from the index only the
files that have disappeared from the working tree will probably
look for a way to do that in the documentation for 'git rm'.
Therefore, describe how that can be done (even though it involves
other commands than 'git rm'). Based on a suggestion by Junio,
but re-arranged and rewritten to better fit into the style of
command reference.
While at it, change a single occurrence of "work tree" to "working
tree" for consistency.

The current documentation fails to mention that 'git add -A/--all' can
remove files as well as add them, and it also does not say anything about
filepatterns (whether they are allowed, mandatory, or optional). It is
also not clear what the similarities and differences to the -u option are.
Update the intro paragraph (as suggested by Junio, with some minor edits)
to make it clear that 'git add' is able to delete and to also cover the -p
option.
Reword the description of -u to make it clearer (based on Björn
Steinbrink's suggestion).
Simplify the description of -A by saying "Like -u" and then describe the
differences (based on the suggestions by Björn Steinbrink and Junio).

What used to happen is that diffcore_count_changes() simply ignored any
hashes in the destination that didn't match hashes in the source. EXCEPT
if the source hash didn't exist at all, in which case it would count _one_
destination hash that happened to have the "next" hash value. As a
consequence, newly added material was often undercounted, making output
from --dirstat and "complete rewrite" detection used by -B unrelialble.
This changes it so that:
- whenever it bypasses a destination hash (because it doesn't match a
source), it counts the bytes associated with that as "literal added"
- at the end (once we have used up all the source hashes), we do the same
thing with the remaining destination hashes.
- when hashes do match, and we use the difference in counts as a value,
we also use up that destination hash entry (the 'd++').

The existing code checked to make sure we were not in a bare
repository when doing a hard reset. However, we should take
this one step further, and make sure we are in a worktree.
Otherwise, we can end up munging files inside of '.git'.
Furthermore, we should do the same check for --merge resets,
which have the same properties. Actually, a merge reset of
HEAD^ would already complain, since further down in the code
we want a worktree. However, it is nicer to check up-front;
then we are sure we cover all cases ("git reset --merge"
would run, even though it wasn't doing anything) and we can
give a more specific message.
Add tests to t7103 to cover these cases and some missing ones.

The rr-cache directory should always exist if we are doing
garbage collection (earlier code paths check this
explicitly), but we may not necessarily succeed in opening
it (for example, due to permissions problems). In that case,
we should print an error message rather than simply
segfaulting.

Newer DocBook stylesheets want man.base.url.for.relative.links
parameter set when formatting manpages with external references
to turn them into full URLs, and leave a helpful "you should
set this parameter" message in the output. Earlier we added
the MAN_BASE_URL make variable to specify the value for it.
When MAN_BASE_URL is not given, it ought to be safe to set the
parameter to empty; it would result in an empty leading path for
older stylesheets that ignore the parameter, and newer ones
would produce the same "relative URL" without the message.
Unfortunately, older xmlto (at least version 0.0.18 released in
early 2004 that comes with RHEL/CentOS 5) does not understand
the --stringparam command line option, so we cannot add the
parameter definition unconditionally to the command line. Work
it around by passing the parameter only when set.
If you do not have a suitable URL prefix, you can pass a quoted empty
string to it, like so:
$ make MAN_BASE_URL='""'

Some ancient platforms do not have an extensive list of alternate names for
character encodings. For example, Solaris 7 and IRIX 6.5 do not know that
ISO-8859-1 is the same as ISO8859-1. Modern platforms do know this, so use
the older name.

Even if the user explicitly gave her own message to "git merge", the
command still added its standard merge message. It resulted in a
useless repetition like this:
% git merge -m "Merge early part of side branch" `git rev-parse side~2`
% git show -s

or she would have prepared it using git-fmt-merge-msg command).

This was misinterpreted as an ancient style "git merge <message> HEAD
<commit> <commit>..." that merges one (or more) <commit> into the current
branch and record the resulting commit with the given message. Then a
later sanity check found that there is no <commit> specified and gave
a usage message.

Although 'git help' actually doesn't need to be run inside a git
repository and uses no repository-specific information, it looks for a git
directory. Searching for a git directory can be annoying in auto-mount
environments. With this commit, 'git help' no longer searches for a
repository when run without any options.
7c3baa9 originally modified 'git help -a' to not require a repository.
This applies the same fix for 'git help'.

We need to call exclude_cmds() after the loop, not during the loop, because
excluding a command from the array can change the indexes of objects in the
array. The result is that, depending on file ordering, some commands
weren't excluded as they should have been.

Ever since the initial implementation, "git am" had kept a dead code that
never triggered due to a typo in the variable name. Worse yet, the code,
if it weren't for the typo, would have attempted to add "[PATCH] " at the
beginning of the Subject: header when "git am" is run with its "-k"
option. However, because "git am -k" tells mailinfo to keep such prefix
when parsing the input, the "[PATCH] " added by this dead code would have
really been unnecessary duplicate.
Embarrassing is that we kept _maintaining_ the codepath without anybody
noticing for four years.

When given a pathspec that does not match any path in the current work
tree with an explicit "--":
git format-patch <commit> -- <path>
the command still complains that <path> does not exist in the current work
tree and the user needs to explicitly specify "--" and errors out. This
is because it incorrectly removes "--" from the command line arguments
that is later passed to setup_revisions().

The patch structure has def_name component that is used to validate the
sanity of a "diff --git" patch by checking pathnames that appear on the
patch header lines for consistency. The git_header_name() function is
used to compute this out of "diff --git a/... b/..." line, but the code
always stripped one level of prefix (i.e. "a/" and "b/"), without paying
attention to -p<n> option. Code in find_name() function that parses other
lines in the patch header (e.g. "--- a/..." and "+++ b/..." lines) however
did strip the correct number of leading paths prefixes, and the sanity
check between these computed values failed.
Teach git_header_name() to honor -p<n> option like find_name() function
does.
Found and reported by Steven J. Murdoch who also wrote tests.

Currently the --all-progress flag is used to use force progress display
during the writing object phase even if output goes to stdout which is
primarily the case during a push operation. This has the unfortunate
side effect of forcing progress display even if stderr is not a
terminal.
Let's introduce the --all-progress-implied argument which has the same
intent except for actually forcing the activation of any progress
display. With this, progress display will be automatically inhibited
whenever stderr is not a terminal, or full progress display will be
included otherwise. This should let people use 'git push' within a cron
job without filling their logs with useless percentage displays.

Running 'git instaweb' when an instaweb server is already running will
fail (at least when the port is the same) and overwrite the pid file
used to track the currently running server. This turns out to be
especially annoying when the user tries to stop the previously running
server with 'git instaweb --stop' and is instead greeted with an error
message because the pid file has been destroyed.
Instead of allowing a user to start two instaweb servers, stop the
currently running server first and then start the new one. This should
be fine because it was never really possible to start two instaweb
servers in the first place due to the pid file issue outlined above.

If the user has exported the GREP_OPTIONS environment variable, the output
from "grep" and "egrep" in scripted Porcelains may be different from what
they expect. For example, we may want to count number of matching lines,
by "grep" piped to "wc -l", and GREP_OPTIONS=-C3 will break such use.
The approach taken by this change to address this issue is to protect only
our own use of grep/egrep. Because we do not unset it at the beginning of
our scripts, hook scripts run from the scripted Porcelains are exposed to
the same insanity this environment variable causes when grep/egrep is used
to implement logic (e.g. "grep | wc -l"), and it is entirely up to the
hook scripts to protect themselves.
On the other hand, applypatch-msg hook may want to show offending words in
the proposed commit log message using grep to the end user, and the user
might want to set GREP_OPTIONS=--color to paint the match more visibly.
The approach to protect only our own use without unsetting the environment
variable globally will allow this use case.
