In order to track and build on top of a branch 'topic' you track from
your upstream repository, you often would end up doing this sequence:
git checkout -b mytopic origin/topic
git config --add branch.mytopic.remote origin
git config --add branch.mytopic.merge refs/heads/topic
This would first fork your own 'mytopic' branch from the 'topic'
branch you track from the 'origin' repository; then it would set up two
configuration variables so that 'git pull' without parameters does the
right thing while you are on your own 'mytopic' branch.
This commit adds a --track option to git-branch, so that "git
branch --track mytopic origin/topic" performs the latter two actions
when creating your 'mytopic' branch.
If the configuration variable branch.autosetupmerge is set to true, you
do not have to pass the --track option explicitly; further patches in
this series allow setting the variable with a "git remote add" option.
The configuration variable is off by default, and there is a --no-track
option to countermand it even if the variable is set.

When switching branches with "git checkout", we internally did $arg^0
(aka $arg^{commit}) suffix but there was no need to.
The improvement is easily visible in the change to an existing
test t/3200-branch.sh in this commit; it was expecting rather
ugly message.

When renaming a branch, the corresponding config section should
be renamed, too.

The current check for symlinked reflogs was based on stat(2), which is
utterly embarrassing.
Fix it, and add a matching testcase.

Extend git-branch with the following options:
git-branch -m|-M [<oldbranch>] newbranch
The -M variation is required to force renaming over an exsisting
branchname.
This also indroduces $GIT_DIR/RENAME_REF which is a "metabranch"
used when renaming branches. It will always hold the original sha1
for the latest renamed branch.
Additionally, if $GIT_DIR/logs/RENAME_REF exists, all branch rename
events are logged there.
Finally, some testcases are added to verify the new options.

The test expected "git branch --help" to exit successfully, but
built-ins spawn "man" when given --help, and when the test is
run, manpages may not be installed yet and "man" can legally
exit non-zero in such a case.
Also the new implementation logs "Created from master", instead
of "Created from HEAD" in the reflog, which makes a lot more
sense, so adjust the test to match that.

If the user supplies -l to git-branch when creating a new branch
then the new branch's log should be created automatically and the
branch creation should be logged in that log.
Further if a branch is being deleted and it had a log then also
verify that the log was deleted.
Test git-checkout -b foo -l for creating a new branch foo with a
log and checking out that branch.
Fixed git-checkout -b foo -l as the branch variable name was
incorrect in the script.

Make git-update-ref create references with slashes in them. git-branch
and git-checkout already support such reference names.
git-branch can use git-update-ref to create the references in a more
formal manner now.

Earlier we renamed git-foo.sh to git-foo while installing, which
was mostly done by inertia than anything else. This however
made writing tests to use scripts harder.
This patch builds the scripts the same way as we build binaries
from their sources. As a side effect, you can now specify
non-standard paths you have your Perl binary is in when running
the make.

If you run `git branch --help', you will unexpectedly have created a new
branch named "--help". This simple patch adds logic and a usage
statement to catch this and similar problems, and adds a testcase for it.
