Some tools like IDEs or fancy editors may periodically run
commands like "git status" in the background to keep track
of the state of the repository. Some of these commands may
refresh the index and write out the result in an
opportunistic way: if they can get the index lock, then they
update the on-disk index with any updates they find. And if
not, then their in-core refresh is lost and just has to be
recomputed by the next caller.
But taking the index lock may conflict with other operations
in the repository. Especially ones that the user is doing
themselves, which _aren't_ opportunistic. In other words,
"git status" knows how to back off when somebody else is
holding the lock, but other commands don't know that status
would be happy to drop the lock if somebody else wanted it.
There are a couple possible solutions:
1. Have some kind of "pseudo-lock" that allows other
commands to tell status that they want the lock.
This is likely to be complicated and error-prone to
implement (and maybe even impossible with just
dotlocks to work from, as it requires some
inter-process communication).
2. Avoid background runs of commands like "git status"
that want to do opportunistic updates, preferring
instead plumbing like diff-files, etc.
This is awkward for a couple of reasons. One is that
"status --porcelain" reports a lot more about the
repository state than is available from individual
plumbing commands. And two is that we actually _do_
want to see the refreshed index. We just don't want to
take a lock or write out the result. Whereas commands
like diff-files expect us to refresh the index
separately and write it to disk so that they can depend
on the result. But that write is exactly what we're
trying to avoid.
3. Ask "status" not to lock or write the index.
This is easy to implement. The big downside is that any
work done in refreshing the index for such a call is
lost when the process exits. So a background process
may end up re-hashing a changed file multiple times
until the user runs a command that does an index
refresh themselves.
This patch implements the option 3. The idea (and the test)
is largely stolen from a Git for Windows patch by Johannes
Schindelin, 67e5ce7f63 (status: offer *not* to lock the
index and update it, 2016-08-12). The twist here is that
instead of making this an option to "git status", it becomes
a "git" option and matching environment variable.
The reason there is two-fold:
1. An environment variable is carried through to
sub-processes. And whether an invocation is a
background process or not should apply to the whole
process tree. So you could do "git --no-optional-locks
foo", and if "foo" is a script or alias that calls
"status", you'll still get the effect.
2. There may be other programs that want the same
treatment.
I've punted here on finding more callers to convert,
since "status" is the obvious one to call as a repeated
background job. But "git diff"'s opportunistic refresh
of the index may be a good candidate.
The test is taken from 67e5ce7f63, and it's worth repeating
Johannes's explanation:
Note that the regression test added in this commit does
not *really* verify that no index.lock file was written;
that test is not possible in a portable way. Instead, we
verify that .git/index is rewritten *only* when `git
status` is run without `--no-optional-locks`.

* Function names were stripped from the comments.

The ability to exclude paths with a negative pathspec is not mentioned
in the man pages for git grep and other commands where it might be
useful.
Add an example and a pointer to the pathspec glossary entry in the man
page for git grep to help the user to discover this ability.
Add similar pointers from the git-add and git-status man pages.
Additionally,
- Add a test for the behaviour when multiple exclusions are present.
- Add a test for the ^ alias.
- Improve name of existing test.
- Improve grammar in glossary description of the exclude pathspec.

The description of `-Xours` merge option has a parenthetical note
that tells the readers that it is very different from `-s ours`,
which is correct, but the description of `-Xtheirs` that follows it
carelessly says "this is the opposite of `ours`", giving a false
impression that the readers also need to be warned that it is very
different from `-s theirs`, which in reality does not even exist.
Clarify it a bit to avoid misleading readers.

With more commands (that potentially change a submodule) paying attention
to submodules as well as the recent discussion[1] on
submodule.<name>.update, let's spell out that submodule.<name>.update
is strictly to be used for configuring the "submodule update" command
and not to be obeyed by other commands.
These other commands usually have a strict meaning of what they should
do (i.e. checkout, reset, rebase, merge) as well as have their name
overlapping with the modes possible for submodule.<name>.update.
[1] https://public-inbox.org/git/4283F0B0-BC1C-4ED1-8126-7E512D84484B@gmail.com/
submodule.<name>.update was set to "none", triggering unexpected
behavior as the submodule was thought to never be touched.
However a newer version of Git taught 'git pull --rebase' to also
populate and rebase submodules if they were active.
The newer options such as submodule.active and command specific
flags would not have triggered unexpected behavior.

The git-read-tree manpage has a table that is meant to
be shown with its spacing exactly as it is in the source. We
mark it as a "literal paragraph" by indenting each line by
at least one space. This renders OK with asciidoc for both
the HTML and manpage versions.
But there are two problems when we render it with
asciidoctor.
The first is that some lines mix tabs and spaces. Even if
asciidoctor is correctly configured for 8-space tabs, it
seems to handle this case differently, soaking up some of
the initial literal-paragraph spaces and mis-aligning the
table text.
The second problem is that the table uses blank lines to
group rows. But as blank lines separate paragraphs in
asciidoc, this actually means that each chunk of the table
is rendered in its own pre-formatted <div> block. This
happens even with vanilla asciidoc, but there's no visible
result because the literal paragraphs aren't styled in any
special way. But with asciidoctor (or at least the styles
used on git-scm.com), literal paragraphs are styled with a
different background. This breaks the table into a visually
distracting sequence of chunks.
We can fix both by adding a literal-paragraph block
delimiter. That turns the whole table into a single block
(for both implementations) and causes asciidoctor to render
the indentation as it is in the source.

When `git describe` uses `--match`, it matches only tags, basically
ignoring the `--all` argument even when it is specified.
