path-utils test: rename mingw_path function to print_path
mingw_path was introduced in abd4284 to output a mangled path as it is
passed as an argument to main(). But the name is misleading because
mangling does not come from MinGW, but from MSYS [1]. As abd4284 does not
introduce any MSYS or MinGW specific code but just prints out argv[2] as
it is passed to main(), give the function the more generic and less
confusing name "print_path".

checkout test: enable test with complex relative path
This test was added, commented out, in fed1b5ca (git-checkout: Test
for relative path use, 2007-11-09). Later git's path handling was
improved (d089ebaa, setup: sanitize absolute and funny paths in
get_pathspec(), 2008-01-28) but we forgot to enable the now-working
test.
This test expects to run from a subdirectory, so add a 'cd'. While
we're here, examine the content of the checked-out file instead of
just checking that it exists. The other checkout tests already do the
same.

clone: tighten "local paths with colons" check a bit
commit 6000334 (clone: allow cloning local paths with colons in them -
2013-05-04) made it possible to specify a path that has colons in it
without file://, e.g. ../foo:bar/somewhere. But the check was a bit
sloppy.
Consider the url '[foo]:bar'. The '[]' unwrapping code will turn the
string to 'foo\0:bar'. In effect this new string is the same as
'foo/:bar' in the check "path < strchrnul(host, '/')", which mistakes
it for a local path (with '/' before the first ':') when it's actually
not.
So disable the check for '/' before ':' when the URL has been mangled
by '[]' unwrapping.
Almost a year ago the CIA service irrevocably crashed. The CIA author

merge-recursive: fix parsing of "diff-algorithm" option

options cannot actually be used.
Fix this by switching to prefixcmp. At the same time, clarify the

git-remote-mediawiki: bugfix for pages w/ >500 revisions
Mediawiki introduces a new API for queries w/ more than 500 results in
version 1.21. That change triggered an infinite loop while cloning a
mediawiki with such a page.
The latest API renamed and moved the "continuing" information in the
response, necessary to build the next query. The code failed to retrieve
that information but still detected that it was in a "continuing
query". As a result, it launched the same query over and over again.
If a "continuing" information is detected in the response (old or new),
the next query is updated accordingly. If not, we quit assuming it's not
a continuing query.

completion: improve untracked directory filtering for filename completion
Similar to Bash's default filename completion, our git-aware filename
completion stops at directory boundaries, i.e. it doesn't offer the
full 'path/to/file' at first, but only 'path/'. To achieve that the
completion script runs 'git ls-files' with specific command line
options to get the list of relevant paths under the current directory,
and then processes each path to strip all but the base directory or
filename (see __git_index_files()).
To offer only modified and untracked files for 'git add' the
completion script runs 'git ls-files --exclude-standard --others
--modified'. This command lists all non-ignored files in untracked
directories, which leads to a noticeable delay caused by the
processing mentioned above if there are a lot of such files
(__git_index_files() specifies '--exclude-standard' internally):
$ mkdir untracked-dir
$ for i in {1..10000} ; do >untracked-dir/$i ; done
$ time __git_index_files "--others --modified"
untracked-dir
real 0m0.537s
user 0m0.452s
sys 0m0.160s
Eliminate this delay by additionally passing the '--directory
--no-empty-directory' options to 'git ls-files' to show only the
directory name of non-empty untracked directories instead their whole
content:
$ time __git_index_files "--others --modified --directory --no-empty-directory"
untracked-dir
real 0m0.029s
user 0m0.020s
sys 0m0.004s
Filename completion for 'git clean' suffers from the same delay, as it
offers untracked files, too. The fix could be the same, but since it
actually makes sense to 'git clean' empty directories, in this case we
only pass the '--directory' option to 'git ls-files'.

Most of git's traversals are robust against minor breakages
in commit data. For example, "git log" will still output an
entry for a commit that has a broken encoding or missing
author, and will not abort the whole operation.
Shortlog, on the other hand, will die as soon as it sees a
commit without an author, meaning that a repository with
a broken commit cannot get any shortlog output at all.
Let's downgrade this fatal error to a warning, and continue
the operation.
We simply ignore the commit and do not count it in the total
(since we do not have any author under which to file it).
Alternatively, we could output some kind of "<empty>" record
to collect these bogus commits. It is probably not worth it,
though; we have already warned to stderr, so the user is
aware that such bogosities exist, and any placeholder we
came up with would either be syntactically invalid, or would
potentially conflict with real data.
