In several of the text messages, the tense of the verb is inconsistent.
For example, "Add" vs "Creates". It is customary to use imperative for

Although it is not advisable, we have always allowed a branch
and a tag to have the same basename (i.e. it is not illegal to
have refs/heads/frotz and refs/tags/frotz at the same time).
When talking about a specific commit, the interpretation of
'frotz' has always been "use tag and then check branch",
although we warn when ambiguities exist.
However "git checkout $name" is defined to (1) first see if it
matches the branch name, and if so switch to that branch; (2)
otherwise it is an instruction to detach HEAD to point at the
commit named by $name. We did not follow this definition when
$name appeared under both refs/heads/ and refs/tags/ -- we
switched to the branch but read the tree from the tagged commit,
which was utterly bogus.

Tests with git-filter-branch on a repository that was converted from
CVS and that has commits reaching back to 1999 revealed that it is
necessary to parse dates before 2000/01/01 when they are specified
as seconds since 1970/01/01. There is now still a limit, 100000000,
which is 1973/03/03 09:46:40 UTC, in order to allow that dates are
represented as 8 digits.

Encode ' ' using '=20' even though rfc2047 allows using '_' for

just leave the underscore in place. Using '=20' seems to work better.

Only git-ls-files(1) describes the gitignore format in detail, and it does so
with reference to git-ls-files options. Most users don't use the plumbing
command git-ls-files directly, and shouldn't have to look in its manpage for
information on the gitignore format.
Create a new manpage gitignore(5) (Documentation/gitignore.txt), and factor
out the gitignore documentation into that file, changing it to refer to
.gitignore and $GIT_DIR/info/exclude as used by porcelain commands. Reference
gitignore(5) from other relevant manpages and documentation. Remove
now-redundant information on exclude patterns from git-ls-files(1), leaving
only information on how git-ls-files options specify exclude patterns and what
precedence they have.

Make hexval_table[] "const". Also make sure that the accessor
function hexval() does not access the table with out-of-range
values by declaring its parameter "unsigned char", instead of
"unsigned int".
With this, gcc can just generate:
movzbl (%rdi), %eax
movsbl hexval_table(%rax),%edx
movzbl 1(%rdi), %eax
movsbl hexval_table(%rax),%eax
sall $4, %edx
orl %eax, %edx
for the code to generate a byte from two hex characters.

Reasonably new versions of the cvs CLI client allow one to
specifiy CVS_SERVER as a method variable directly in
CVSROOT. This is way more convinient than using an
environment variable since it gets saved in CVS/Root.
Since I only discovered this by accident I guess there
might be others out there that learnt CVS on the 1.11
series (or even earlier) and profit from such a note
about cvs improvements in the last couple years.

c23290d5.
It puts various forms of $Id$ into a file in the repository,
without allowing git to collapse them to uniformity. Then enables the
$Id$ expansion on checkout, and checks that what is checked out has
coped with the various forms.

git-svn: avoid md5 calculation entirely if SVN doesn't provide one
Fix stupid typo in lookup_tag()

There's no point in calculating an MD5 if we're not going to use

Perl MD5 library not being able to handle zero-sized files.
This is a followup to 20b3d206acbbb042c7ad5f42d36ff8d036a538c5,
which allows us to track repositories that do not provide MD5

Johannes Sixt asked me to try to avoid embedding the runtime location
of git-gui's library directory in the executable script. Not embedding
it helps the MinGW to be relocatable to another directory should a user
wish to install the programs in a directory other than the location the
packager wanted them to be installed into.
Most of this is a hack. We try to determine if the path of our master
git-gui script will be able to locate the lib by ../share/git-gui/lib.
This should be true if $(gitexecdir) and $(libdir) have the same prefix.
If they do then we defer the assignment of $(libdir) until runtime, and
we get it from $argv0 rather than embedding it into the script itself.

If the repository contained an expanded ident keyword (i.e. $Id:XXXX$),
then the wrong bytes were discarded, and the Id keyword was not
expanded. The fault was in convert.c:ident_to_worktree().
Previously, when a "$Id:" was found in the repository version,
ident_to_worktree() would search for the next "$" after this, and
discarded everything it found until then. That was done with the loop:
do {
ch = *cp++;
if (ch == '$')
break;
rem--;
} while (rem);
The above loop left cp pointing one character _after_ the final "$"
(because of ch = *cp++). This was different from the non-expanded case,
were cp is left pointing at the "$", and was different from the comment
which stated "discard up to but not including the closing $". This
patch fixes that by making the loop:
do {
ch = *cp;
if (ch == '$')
break;
cp++;
rem--;
} while (rem);
That is, cp is tested _then_ incremented.
This loop exits if it finds a "$" or if it runs out of bytes in the
source. After this loop, if there was no closing "$" the expansion is
skipped, and the outer loop is allowed to continue leaving this
non-keyword as it was. However, when the "$" is found, size is
corrected, before running the expansion:
size -= (cp - src);
This is wrong; size is going to be corrected anyway after the expansion,
so there is no need to do it here. This patch removes that redundant
correction.
To help find this bug, I heavily commented the routine; those comments
are included here as a bonus.

Under some implementations of echo (such as that provided by
dash), backslash escapes are recognized without any other
options. This means that echo-ing user-supplied strings may
cause any backslash sequences in them to be converted. Using
printf resolves the ambiguity.
This bug can be seen when using git-am to apply a patch
whose subject contains the character sequence "\n"; the
characters are converted to a literal newline. Noticed by
Szekeres Istvan.

In git.git repository, "git-name-rev v1.3.0~158" cannot name the
rev, while adjacent revs can be named.
This was because it gives up traversal from the tips of existing
refs as soon as it sees a commit that has older commit timestamp
than what is being named. This is usually a good heuristics,
but v1.3.0~158 has a slightly older commit timestamp than
v1.3.0~157 (i.e. it's child), as these two were made in a
separate repostiory (in fact, in a different continent).
This adds a hardcoded slop value (1 day) to the cut-off
heuristics to work this kind of problem around. The current
algorithm essentially runs around from the available tips down
to ancient commits and names every single rev available that are
newer than cut-off date, so a single day slop would not add that
much overhead in repositories with long enough history where the
performance of name-rev matters.
I think the algorithm could be made a bit smarter by deepening
the graph on demand as a new commit is asked to be named (this
would require rewriting of name_rev() function not to recurse
itself but use a traversal list like revision.c traverser does),
but that would be a separate issue.

Alberto Bertogli reported on #git that git-gui was exiting with
alt-q, while gitk on the same system was exiting with ctrl-q.
That was not what I wanted. I really wanted M1B to be bound to
the Control key on most non-Mac OS X platforms, but according to
Sam Vilain M1 on most systems means alt. Since gitk always does
control, I'm doing the same thing for all non-Mac OS X systems.

A few new configuration options grew out of the woodwork during the
1.5.2 series. Most of these are pretty easy to support a completion
of, so we do so.
I wanted to also add completion support for the <driver> part of
merge.<driver>.name but to do that we have to look at all of the
.gitattributes files and guess what the unique set of <driver>
strings would be. Since this appears to be non-trivial I'm punting
on it at this time.

(Somewhat) recently git-log learned about --reverse (to show commits

Recently the git-remote command grew an update subcommand, which
can be used to execute git-fetch across multiple repositories
in a single step. These can be configured with the 'remotes.*'
