The drop-down lists used for things like the criteria for finding
commits (containing/touching paths/etc.) use a combobox if we are
using the ttk widgets. By default the combobox exports its value
as the selection when it is changed, which is unnecessary, and sometimes
the combobox wouldn't release the selection, which is annoying.
To fix this, we make these comboboxes not export their selection,
and also clear their selection whenever they are changed. This makes
them more like a simple selection of alternatives, improving the look
and feel of gitk.

t5004: avoid using tar for checking emptiness of archive
t5004: ignore pax global header file
mergetools/kdiff3: do not use --auto when diffing
transport-helper: trivial style cleanup
cherry-pick: picking a tag that resolves to a commit is OK
Earlier, 21246dbb9e0a (cherry-pick: make sure all input objects are
commits, 2013-04-11) tried to catch an unlikely "git cherry-pick $blob"
as an error, but broke a more important use case to cherry-pick a
tag that points at a commit.
t5004: avoid using tar for checking emptiness of archive
Test 2 of t5004 checks if a supposedly empty tar archive really
contains no files. 24676f02 (t5004: fix issue with empty archive test
and bsdtar) removed our commit hash to make it work with bsdtar, but
the test still fails on NetBSD and OpenBSD, which use their own tar
that considers a tar file containing only NULs as broken.
Here's what the different archivers do when asked to create a tar
file without entries:
So NetBSD's native tar creates an empty file, while GNU tar and bsdtar
both give us 10KB of NULs -- just like git archive with an empty tree.
Now let's see how the archivers handle these two kinds of empty tar
files:
$ tar tf zero.tar; echo $?
tar: Unexpected EOF on archive file
1
$ gtar tf zero.tar; echo $?
gtar: This does not look like a tar archive
gtar: Exiting with failure status due to previous errors
2
$ bsdtar tf zero.tar; echo $?
0
$ tar tf tenk.tar; echo $?
tar: Cannot identify format. Searching...
tar: End of archive volume 1 reached
tar: Sorry, unable to determine archive format.
1
$ gtar tf tenk.tar; echo $?
0
$ bsdtar tf tenk.tar; echo $?
0
NetBSD's tar complains about both, bsdtar happily accepts any of them
and GNU tar doesn't like zero-length archive files. So the safest
course of action is to stay with our block-of-NULs format which is
compatible with GNU tar and bsdtar, as we can't make NetBSD's native
tar happy anyway.
We can simplify our test, however, by taking tar out of the picture.
Instead of extracting the archive and checking for the non-presence of
files, check if the file has a size of 10KB and contains only NULs.
This makes t5004 pass on NetBSD and OpenBSD.

Add a test to verify the emptiness of an archive by extracting its
contents. Don't run this test if the version of tar doesn't support
archives containing only a comment header, though.
The existing check 'tar archive of empty tree is empty' used to work
like that (minus the tar capability check) but was changed to depend
on the exact representation of empty tar files created by git archive
instead of on the behaviour of tar in order to avoid issues with
different tar versions.
The different approaches test different things: The existing one is
for empty trees, for which we know the exact expected output and thus
we can simply check it without extracting; the new one is for commits
with empty trees, whose archives include stamps and so the more
"natural" check by extraction is a better fit because it focuses on
the interesting aspect, namely the absence of any archive entries.

Versions of tar that don't know pax headers -- like the ones in NetBSD 6
and OpenBSD 5.2 -- extract them as regular files. Explicitly ignore the
file created for our global header when checking the list of extracted
files, as this is normal and harmless fall-back behaviour. This fixes
test 3 of t5004 on these platforms.

The SVN::Fetcher module is now able to filter for inclusion as well
as exclusion (as used by --ignore-path). Also added tests, documentation
changes and git completion script.
If you have an SVN repository with many top level directories and you
only want a git-svn clone of some of them then using --ignore-path is
difficult as it requires a very long regexp. In this case it's much
easier to filter for inclusion.

clone: allow cloning local paths with colons in them
Usually "foo:bar" is interpreted as an ssh url. This patch allows to
clone from such paths by putting at least one slash before the colon
(i.e. /path/to/foo:bar or just ./foo:bar).
file://foo:bar should also work, but local optimizations are off in
that case, which may be unwanted. While at there, warn the users about
--local being ignored in this case.
