Perl's split function takes a regex pattern argument. You can also
feed it an expression, which is then compiled into a regex at runtime.
It therefore works to pass your pattern via single quotes, but it is
much less obvious to a reader that the argument is meant to be a
regex, not a static string. Using the traditional slash-delimiters
makes this easier to read.

Fix `git svn` `rebase` & `dcommit` if top-level HEAD directory exist
When a file (or a directory) called HEAD exists in the working tree,
internal calls git svn makes trigger "did you mean a revision or a
path?" ambiguity check.
$ git svn rebase
fatal: ambiguous argument 'HEAD': both revision and filename
Use '--' to separate paths from revisions, like this:

Blameview was a quick-and-dirty demonstration of how blame's
incremental output could be used in an interface. These days
one can find much better (and less ugly!) demonstrations in
"git gui blame" and "tig blame".
The only advantage blameview has is that its code is perhaps
simpler to read. However, that is balanced by the fact that
it probably has bugs, as nobody uses it nor has touched the
code in 6 years. An implementor is probably better off just
reading the "incremental output" section of "man git-blame".

Primarily to push out two regression issues that seem to affect many

read from $HOME owned by root" bug.
Merge branch 'jn/config-ignore-inaccessible' into maint
A git daemon that starts as "root" and then drops privilege often
leaves $HOME set to that of the root user, which is unreadable by
the daemon process, which was diagnosed as a configuration error.
Make per-user configuration files that are inaccessible due to
EACCES as though these files do not exist to avoid this issue, as
the tightening which was originally meant as an additional security

The 'git show' completion uses __git_complete_file (aliased to
__git_complete_revlist_file), because accepts <tree-ish>:<path> as
well as <commit-ish>. But the command also accepts range of commits
in A..B notation, so using __git_complete_revlist_file is more
appropriate.
There still remain two users of __git_complete_file, completions for
"archive" and "ls-tree". As these commands do not take range
notation, and "git show" no longer uses __git_complete_file, the
implementation of it can be updated not to complete ranges, but that
is a separate topic.

gitweb: fix problem causing erroneous project list
The bug is manifest when running gitweb in a persistent process (e.g.
FastCGI, PSGI), and it's easy to reproduce. If a gitweb request
includes the searchtext parameter (i.e. s), subsequent requests using
the project_list action--which is the default action--and without
a searchtext parameter will be filtered by the searchtext value of the
first request. This is because the value of the $search_regexp global
(the value of which is based on the searchtext parameter) is currently
being persisted between requests.
Instead, clear $search_regexp before dispatching each request.

fetch-options.txt: prevent a wildcard refspec from getting misformatted
When explaining the "--tags" option as an equivalent to giving an
explicit "refs/tags/*:refs/tags/*" refspec, the two asterisks were
misinterpreted by AsciiDoc as a request to typeset the string
segment between them in bold.
We could fix it in two ways. We can replace them with {asterisk}s
while keeping the string as body text, or we can mark it as a
literal string with backquotes around it.
Let's do the latter, as it is teaching the user an "exactly as
typed" alternative.

t0005: skip signal death exit code test on Windows
The test case depends on that test-sigchain can commit suicide by a
call to raise(SIGTERM) in a way that run-command.c::wait_or_whine()
can detect as death through a signal. There are no POSIX signals on
Windows, and a sufficiently close emulation is not available in the
Microsoft C runtime (and probably not even possible).
The particular deficiency is that when a signal is raise()d whose
SIG_DFL action will cause process death (SIGTERM in this case), the
implementation of raise() in msvcrt just calls exit(3).
We could check for exit code 3 in addition to 143, but that would
miss the point of the test entirely. Hence, just skip it on Windows.

When a test wants to make sure there is no <string> in an output

"test_must_fail" is there only to test Git command and catch unusual

failure. "test_must_fail grep string output" is unnecessary, as
we are not making sure the system binaries do not dump core or

msysgit: Add the --large-address-aware linker directive to the makefile.
This has the effect of increasing the address space from 2GB to 4GB under
64-bit Windows, reducing the likelihood of an "out of memory" error when
e.g. repacking a large repository. The test suite passes with this
patch, with and without the MEM_TOP_DOWN flag added to all VirtualAlloc
calls. While this is no guarantee that there are no issues with large
memory support (it could break Git on other setups than mine, for
example), it at least increases the chance that nothing obvious goes wrong
(such as errors introduced by faulty sign extension, say, with ssize_t).

sha1_object_info() returns -1 (OBJ_BAD) if it cannot find the object
for some reason, which suggests that it wants the _caller_ to report
this error. However, part of its work happens in
sha1_loose_object_info, which _does_ report errors itself. This is
doubly strange because:
* packed_object_info(), which is the other half of the duo, does _not_
report this.
* In the event that an object is packed and pruned while
sha1_object_info_extended() goes looking for it, we would
erroneously show the error -- even though the code of the latter
function purports to handle this case gracefully.
* A caller might invoke sha1_object_info() to find the type of an
object even if that object is not known to exist.
Silence this error. The others remain untouched as a corrupt object
is a much more grave error than it merely being absent.

'git difftool' is clearly a frontend to 'git diff' and is used in
exactly the same way, but it uses a misleadingly named completion
function __git_complete_file. It happens to work only because it

paths.
Change it to use __git_complete_revlist_file, just like 'git diff'.
