The configuration option column.ui is very poorly documented, and it is
unclear what the defaults are, and what option can be combined with
what. Rewrite it by splitting up the options into three sections
clearly showing how COL_ENABLED, COL_LAYOUT_MASK, and COL_DENSE work.

This new configuration variable overrides `remote.pushdefault` and
`branch.<name>.remote` for pushes. When you pull from one
place (e.g. your upstream) and push to another place (e.g. your own
publishing repository), you would want to set `remote.pushdefault` to
specify the remote to push to for all branches, and use this option to
override it for a specific branch.

This new configuration variable defines the default remote to push to,
and overrides `branch.<name>.remote` for all branches. It is useful
in the typical triangular-workflow setup, where the remote you're
fetching from is different from the remote you're pushing to.

With uploadpack.allowtipsha1inwant configuration option set, future
versions of "git fetch" that allow an exact object name (likely to
have been obtained out of band) on the LHS of the fetch refspec can
make a request with a "want" line that names an object that may not
have been advertised due to transfer.hiderefs configuration.

A repository may have refs that are only used for its internal
bookkeeping purposes that should not be exposed to the others that
come over the network.
Teach upload-pack to omit some refs from its initial advertisement
by paying attention to the uploadpack.hiderefs multi-valued
configuration variable. Do the same to receive-pack via the
receive.hiderefs variable. As a convenient short-hand, allow using
transfer.hiderefs to set the value to both of these variables.
Any ref that is under the hierarchies listed on the value of these
variable is excluded from responses to requests made by "ls-remote",
"fetch", etc. (for upload-pack) and "push" (for receive-pack).
Because these hidden refs do not count as OUR_REF, an attempt to
fetch objects at the tip of them will be rejected, and because these
refs do not get advertised, "git push :" will not see local branches
that have the same name as them as "matching" ones to be sent.
An attempt to update/delete these hidden refs with an explicit
refspec, e.g. "git push origin :refs/hidden/22", is rejected. This
is not a new restriction. To the pusher, it would appear that there
is no such ref, so its push request will conclude with "Now that I
sent you all the data, it is time for you to update the refs. I saw
that the ref did not exist when I started pushing, and I want the
result to point at this commit". The receiving end will apply the
compare-and-swap rule to this request and rejects the push with
"Well, your update request conflicts with somebody else; I see there
is such a ref.", which is the right thing to do. Otherwise a push to
a hidden ref will always be "the last one wins", which is not a good
default.

Update documentation to change "GIT" which was a poor-man's small

the command the end users would type.

When looking at a configuration file edited long time ago, a user
may find 'pull.default = tracking' and wonder what it means, but
earlier we stopped mentioning this value, even though the code still
support it and more importantly, we have no intention to force old
timers to update their configuration files.
Instead of not mentioning it, add it to the description in a way
that makes it clear that users have no reason to add new uses of it
preferring over 'upstream', by not listing it as a separate item on
the same footing as other values but as a deprecated synonym of the
'upstream' in its description.

When we push to update an existing ref, if:
* the object at the tip of the remote is not a commit; or
* the object we are pushing is not a commit,
it won't be correct to suggest to fetch, integrate and push again,
as the old and new objects will not "merge". We should explain that
the push must be forced when there is a non-committish object is
involved in such a case.
If we do not have the current object at the tip of the remote, we do
not even know that object, when fetched, is something that can be
merged. In such a case, suggesting to pull first just like
non-fast-forward case may not be technically correct, but in
practice, most such failures are seen when you try to push your work
to a branch without knowing that somebody else already pushed to
update the same branch since you forked, so "pull first" would work
as a suggestion most of the time. And if the object at the tip is
not a commit, "pull first" will fail, without making any permanent
damage. As a side effect, it also makes the error message the user
will get during the next "push" attempt easier to understand, now
the user is aware that a non-commit object is involved.
In these cases, the current code already rejects such a push on the
client end, but we used the same error and advice messages as the
ones used when rejecting a non-fast-forward push, i.e. pull from
there and integrate before pushing again.
Introduce new rejection reasons and reword the messages
appropriately.

Specifically the fields uid, gid, ctime, ino and dev are set to zero
by JGit. Other implementations, eg. Git in cygwin are allegedly also
somewhat incompatible with Git For Windows and on *nix platforms
the resolution of the timestamps may differ.
Any stat checking by git will then need to check content, which may
be very slow, particularly on Windows. Since mtime and size
is typically enough we should allow the user to tell git to avoid
checking these fields if they are set to zero in the index.
This change introduces a core.checkstat config option where the
the user can select to check all fields (default), or just size
and the whole second part of mtime (minimal).

Some users do want to write a line that begin with a pound sign, #,
in their commit log message. Many tracking system recognise
a token of #<bugid> form, for example.
The support we offer these use cases is not very friendly to the end
users. They have a choice between
- Don't do it. Avoid such a line by rewrapping or indenting; and
- Use --cleanup=whitespace but remove all the hint lines we add.
Give them a way to set a custom comment char, e.g.
$ git -c core.commentchar="%" commit
so that they do not have to do either of the two workarounds.
