The most recent Azure Pipelines macOS agents enable what Apple calls
"System Integrity Protection". This makes `p4d -V` hang: there is some
sort of GUI dialog waiting for the user to acknowledge that the copied
binaries are legit and may be executed, but on build agents, there is no
user who could acknowledge that.
Let's ask Homebrew specifically to _not_ quarantine the Perforce
binaries.

Among other differences relative to GNU sed, macOS' sed always ends its
output with a trailing newline, even if the input did not have such a
trailing newline.
Surprisingly, this makes three httpd-based tests fail on macOS: t5616,
t5702 and t5703. ("Surprisingly" because those tests have been around
for some time, but apparently nobody runs them on macOS with a working
Apache2 setup.)
The reason is that we use `sed` in those tests to filter the response of
the web server. Apart from the fact that we use GNU constructs (such as
using a space after the `c` command instead of a backslash and a
newline), we have another problem: macOS' sed LF-only newlines while
webservers are supposed to use CR/LF ones.
Even worse, t5616 uses `sed` to replace a binary part of the response
with a new binary part (kind of hoping that the replaced binary part
does not contain a 0x0a byte which would be interpreted as a newline).
To that end, it calls on Perl to read the binary pack file and
hex-encode it, then calls on `sed` to prefix every hex digit pair with a
`\x` in order to construct the text that the `c` statement of the `sed`
invocation is supposed to insert. So we call Perl and sed to construct a
sed statement. The final nail in the coffin is that macOS' sed does not
even interpret those `\x<hex>` constructs.
Let's just replace all of that by Perl snippets. With Perl, at least, we
do not have to deal with GNU vs macOS semantics, we do not have to worry
about unwanted trailing newlines, and we do not have to spawn commands
to construct arguments for other commands to be spawned (i.e. we can
avoid a whole lot of shell scripting complexity).
The upshot is that this fixes t5616, t5702 and t5703 on macOS with
Apache2.

A recent update in the Linux VM images used by Azure Pipelines surfaced
a new problem in the "Documentation" job. Apparently, this warning
appears 396 times on `stderr` when running `make doc`:
/usr/lib/ruby/vendor_ruby/rubygems/defaults/operating_system.rb:10: warning: constant Gem::ConfigMap is deprecated
This problem was already reported to the `rubygems` project via
https://github.com/rubygems/rubygems/issues/3068.
As there is nothing Git can do about this warning, and as the
"Documentation" job reports this warning as a failure, let's just
silence it and move on.

The description of the multi-pack-index contains a small bug,
if all offsets are < 2^32 then there will be no LOFF chunk,
not only if they're all < 2^31 (since the highest bit is only
needed as the "LOFF-escape" when that's actually needed.)
Correct this, and clarify that in that case only offsets up
to 2^31-1 can be stored in the OOFF chunk.

When we exemplify the difference between `-G` and `-S` (using
`--pickaxe-regex`), we do so using an example diff and git-diff
invocation involving "regexec", "regexp", "regmatch", ...
The example is correct, but we can make it easier to untangle by
avoiding writing "regex.*" unless it's really needed to make our point.
Use some made-up, non-regexy words instead.

Since 'err' contains output for multiple submodules and is printed all
at once by fetch_populated_submodules(), errors for each submodule
should be newline separated for readability. The same strbuf is added to
with a newline in the other half of the conditional where this error is
detected, so make the two consistent.

In this paragraph, we have a few instances of the '^' character, which
we give as "\^". This renders well with AsciiDoc ("^"), but Asciidoctor
renders it literally as "\^". Dropping the backslashes renders fine
with Asciidoctor, but not AsciiDoc...
An earlier version of this patch used "{caret}" instead of "^", which
avoided these escaping problems. The rendering was still so-so, though
-- these expressions end up set as normal text, similarly to when one
provides, e.g., computer code in the middle of running text, without
properly marking it with `backticks` to be monospaced.
As noted by Jeff King, this suggests actually wrapping these
expressions in backticks, setting them in monospace.
The lone "5" could be left as is or wrapped as `5`. Spell it out as
"five" instead -- this generally looks better anyway for small numbers
in the middle of text like this.

Since grep learned to recurse into submodules in 0281e487fd
(grep: optionally recurse into submodules, 2016-12-16),
using --recurse-submodules along with --no-index makes Git
die().
This is unfortunate because if submodule.recurse is set in a user's
~/.gitconfig, invoking `git grep --no-index` either inside or outside
a Git repository results in
fatal: option not supported with --recurse-submodules
Let's allow using these options together, so that setting submodule.recurse
globally does not prevent using `git grep --no-index`.
Using `--recurse-submodules` should not have any effect if `--no-index`
is used inside a repository, as Git will recurse into the checked out
submodule directories just like into regular directories.

Commit 6462d5eb9a ("fetch: remove fetch_if_missing=0", 2019-11-08)
contains a test that relies on having to lazily fetch the delta base of
a blob, but assumes that the tree being fetched (as part of the test) is
sent as a non-delta object. This assumption may not hold in the future;
for example, a change in the length of the object hash might result in
the tree being sent as a delta instead.
Make the test more robust by relying on having to lazily fetch the delta
base of the tree instead, and by making no assumptions on whether the
blobs are sent as delta or non-delta.

Users in a wide variety of situations find themselves with HTTP push
problems. Oftentimes these issues are due to antivirus software,
filtering proxies, or other man-in-the-middle situations; other times,
they are due to simple unreliability of the network.
However, a common solution to HTTP push problems found online is to
increase http.postBuffer. This works for none of the aforementioned
situations and is only useful in a small, highly restricted number of
cases: essentially, when the connection does not properly support
HTTP/1.1.
Document when raising this value is appropriate and what it actually
does, and discourage people from using it as a general solution for push
problems, since it is not effective there.

It is quite common for users to want to ignore the changes to a file
that Git tracks. Common scenarios for this case are IDE settings and
configuration files, which should generally not be tracked and possibly
generated from tracked files using a templating mechanism.
However, users learn about the assume-unchanged and skip-worktree bits
and try to use them to do this anyway. This is problematic, because
when these bits are set, many operations behave as the user expects, but
they usually do not help when git checkout needs to replace a file.
There is no sensible behavior in this case, because sometimes the data
is precious, such as certain configuration files, and sometimes it is
irrelevant data that the user would be happy to discard.
Since this is not a supported configuration and users are prone to
misuse the existing features for unintended purposes, causing general
sadness and confusion, let's document the existing behavior and the
pitfalls in the documentation for git update-index so that users know
they should explore alternate solutions.
In addition, let's provide a recommended solution to dealing with the
common case of configuration files, since there are well-known
approaches used successfully in many environments.

It's a frequent misconception that the user.name variable controls
authentication in some way, and as a result, beginning users frequently
attempt to change it when they're having authentication troubles.
Document that the convention is that this variable represents some form
of a human's personal name, although that is not required. In addition,
address concerns about whether Unicode is supported.
Use the term "personal name" as this is likely to draw the intended
contrast, be applicable across cultures which may have different naming
conventions, and be easily understandable to people who do not speak
English as their first language. Indicate that "some form" is
conventionally used, as people may use a nickname or preferred name
instead of a full legal name.
Point users who may be confused about authentication to an appropriate
configuration option instead. Provide a shortened form of this
information in the configuration option description.

While at one time it made perfect sense to store information about
configuring author and committer information in the documentation for
git commit-tree, in modern Git that operation is seldom used. Most
users will use git commit and expect to find comprehensive documentation
about its use in the manual page for that command.
Considering that there is significant confusion about how one is to use
the user.name and user.email variables, let's put as much documentation
as possible into an obvious place where users will be more likely to
find it.
In addition, expand the environment variables section to describe their
use more fully. Even though we now describe all of the options there
and in the configuration settings documentation, preserve the existing
text in git-commit.txt so that people can easily reason about the
ordering of the various options they can use. Explain the use of the
author.* and committer.* options as well.
