Merge branch 'jc/apply-binary-p0' into maint-1.7.11
"git apply -p0" did not parse pathnames on "diff --git" line
correctly. This caused patches that had pathnames in no other
places to be mistakenly rejected (most notably, binary patch that
does not rename nor change mode). Textual patches, renames or mode
changes have preimage and postimage pathnames in different places in
a form that can be parsed unambiguously and did not suffer from this
problem.

"git branch --set-upstream origin/master" is a common mistake to
create a local branch 'origin/master' and set it to integrate with

current branch to integrate with 'origin/master' remote tracking

gitcli: contrast wildcard given to shell and to git
People who are not used to working with shell may intellectually
understand how the command line argument is massaged by the shell
but still have a hard time visualizing the difference between
letting the shell expand fileglobs and having Git see the fileglob
to use as a pathspec.
The paragraph to encourage use of "--" in scripts belongs to the
bullet point that describes the behaviour for a command line without
the explicit "--" disambiguation; it is not a supporting explanation
for the entire bulletted list, and it is wrong to make it a separate
paragraph outside the list.
t0060: split absolute path test in two to exercise some of it on Windows
Only the first half of the test works only on POSIX, the second half
passes on Windows as well.
A later test "real path removes other extra slashes" looks very similar,
but it does not make sense to split it in the same way: When two slashes
are prepended in front of an absolute DOS-style path on Windows, the
meaning of the path is changed (//server/share style), so that the test
cannot pass on Windows.

The current code uses setitimer() only for reducing perceived
latency. On platforms that lack setitimer() (e.g. HP NonStop),
allow builders to say "make NO_SETITIMER=YesPlease" to use a no-op
substitute, as doing so would not affect correctness.
HP NonStop does provide struct itimerval, but other platforms may
not, so this is taken care of in this commit too, by setting
NO_STRUCT_ITIMERVAL.
