Credential helpers are asked in turn until one of them give
positive response, which is cumbersome to turn off when you need to
run Git in an automated setting. The credential helper interface
learned to allow a helper to say "stop, don't ask other helpers."
Also GIT_TERMINAL_PROMPT environment can be set to false to disable
our built-in prompt mechanism for passwords.
* jk/credential-quit:
prompt: respect GIT_TERMINAL_PROMPT to disable terminal prompts
credential: let helpers tell us to quit

"git push" into a repository with a working tree normally refuses
to modify the branch that is checked out. The command learned to
optionally do an equivalent of "git reset --hard" only when there
is no change to the working tree and the index instead, which would
be useful to "deploy" by pushing into a repository.

The point of disallowing ".git" in the index is that we
would never want to accidentally overwrite files in the
repository directory. But this means we need to respect the
filesystem's idea of when two paths are equal. The prior
commit added a helper to make such a comparison for NTFS
and FAT32; let's use it in verify_path().
We make this check optional for two reasons:
1. It restricts the set of allowable filenames, which is
unnecessary for people who are not on NTFS nor FAT32.
In practice this probably doesn't matter, though, as
the restricted names are rather obscure and almost
certainly would never come up in practice.
2. It has a minor performance penalty for every path we
insert into the index.
This patch ties the check to the core.protectNTFS config
option. Though this is expected to be most useful on Windows,
we allow it to be set everywhere, as NTFS may be mounted on
other platforms. The variable does default to on for Windows,
though.

Many users misunderstand the --assume-unchanged contract, believing
it means Git won't look at the flagged file.
Be explicit that the --assume-unchanged contract is by the user that
they will NOT change the file so that Git does not need to look (and
expend, for example, lstat(2) cycles)
Mentioning "Git stops checking" does not help the reader, as it is
only one possible consequence of what that assumption allows Git to
do, but
(1) there are things other than "stop checking" that Git can do
based on that assumption; and
(2) Git is not obliged to stop checking; it merely is allowed to.
Also, this is a single flag bit, correct the plural to singular, and
the verb, accordingly.
Drop the stale and incorrect information about "poor-man's ignore",
which is not what this flag bit is about at all.

A request to store an empty note via "git notes" meant to remove
note from the object but with --allow-empty we will store a (surprise!)
note that is empty. In the longer run, we might want to deprecate

Allow passing extra set of arguments when ssh is invoked to create
an encrypted & authenticated connection by introducing a new environment
variable GIT_SSH_COMMAND, whose contents is interpreted by shells.
This is not possible with existing GIT_SSH mechanism whose
invocation bypasses shells, which was designed more to match what
other programs with similar variables did, not necessarily to be
more useful.

If you run git as part of an automated system, you might
prefer git to die rather than try to issue a prompt on the
terminal (because there would be nobody to see it and
respond, and the process would hang forever).
This usually works out of the box because getpass() (and our
more featureful replacements) will fail when there is no
tty, but this does not cover all cases. For example, a batch
system run via ssh might have a tty, even when the user does
not expect it.
Let's provide an environment variable the user can set to
avoid even trying to touch the tty at all.

When we are trying to fill a credential, we loop over the
set of defined credential-helpers, then fall back to running
askpass, and then finally prompt on the terminal. Helpers
which cannot find a credential are free to tell us nothing,
but they cannot currently ask us to stop prompting.
This patch lets them provide a "quit" attribute, which asks
us to stop the process entirely (avoiding running more
helpers, as well as the askpass/terminal prompt).
This has a few possible uses:
1. A helper which prompts the user itself (e.g., in a
dialog) can provide a "cancel" button to the user to
stop further prompts.
2. Some helpers may know that prompting cannot possibly
work. For example, if their role is to broker a ticket
from an external auth system and that auth system
cannot be contacted, there is no point in continuing
(we need a ticket to authenticate, and the user cannot
provide one by typing it in).

When synchronizing between working directories, it can be handy to update
the current branch via 'push' rather than 'pull', e.g. when pushing a fix
from inside a VM, or when pushing a fix made on a user's machine (where
the developer is not at liberty to install an ssh daemon let alone know
the user's password).
The common workaround – pushing into a temporary branch and then merging
on the other machine – is no longer necessary with this patch.
The new option is:
'updateInstead':
Update the working tree accordingly, but refuse to do so if there
are any uncommitted changes.

The thread at http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/257392
details problems when applying patches with "git am" in a repository with
CRLF line endings. In the example in the thread, the repository originated
from "git-svn" so it is not possible to use core.eol and friends on it.
Right now, the best option is to use "git am --keep-cr". However, when
a patch create new files, the patch application process will reject the
new file because it finds a "/dev/null\r" string instead of "/dev/null".
The problem is that SMTP transport is CRLF-unsafe. Sending a patch by
email is the same as passing it through "dos2unix | unix2dos". The newly
introduced CRLFs are normally transparent because git-am strips them. The
keepcr=true setting preserves them, but it is mostly working by chance
and it would be very problematic to have a "git am" workflow in a
repository with mixed LF and CRLF line endings.
The MIME solution to this is the quoted-printable transfer enconding.
This is not something that we want to enable by default, since it makes
received emails horrible to look at. However, it is a very good match
for projects that store CRLF line endings in the repository.
The only disadvantage of quoted-printable is that quoted-printable
patches fail to apply if the maintainer uses "git am --keep-cr". This
is because the decoded patch will have two carriage returns at the end
of the line. Therefore, add support for base64 transfer encoding too,
which makes received emails downright impossible to look at outside
a MUA, but really just works.
The patch covers all bases, including users that still live in the late
80s, by also providing a 7bit content transfer encoding that refuses
to send emails with non-ASCII character in them. And finally, "8bit"
will add a Content-Transfer-Encoding header but otherwise do nothing.
