docs: make sure literal "->" isn't converted to arrow
Recent versions of asciidoc will treat "->" as a
single-glyph arrow symbol, unless it is inside a literal
code block. This is a problem if we are discussing literal
output and want to show the ASCII characters.
Our usage falls into three categories:
1. Inside a code block. These can be left as-is.
2. Discussing literal output or code, but inside a
paragraph. This patch escapes these as "\->".
3. Using the arrow as a symbolic element, such as "use the
Edit->Account Settings menu". In this case, the
arrow symbol is preferable, so we leave it as-is.

git-submodule.sh: separate parens by a space to avoid confusing some shells
Some shells interpret '(( ))' according to the rules for arithmetic
expansion. This may not follow POSIX, but is prevalent in commonly used
shells. Bash does not have a problem with this particular instance of
'((', likely because it is not followed by a '))', but the public domain
ksh does, and so does ksh on IRIX 6.5.
So, add a space between the parenthesis to avoid confusing these shells.

With diff.suppress-blank-empty=true, "git diff --word-diff" would
output data that had been read from uninitialized heap memory.
The problem was that fn_out_consume did not account for the
possibility of a line with length 1, i.e., the empty context line
that diff.suppress-blank-empty=true converts from " \n" to "\n".
Since it assumed there would always be a prefix character (the space),
it decremented "len" unconditionally, thus passing len=0 to emit_line,
which would then blindly call emit_line_0 with len=-1 which would
pass that value on to fwrite as SIZE_MAX. Boom.

On the author's terminal, the up-arrow input sequence is ^[[A, and
thus fat-fingering an up-arrow into 'git checkout -p' is quite
dangerous: git-add--interactive.perl will ignore the ^[ and [
characters and happily treat A as "discard everything".
As a band-aid fix, use Term::Cap to get all terminal capabilities.
Then use the heuristic that any capability value that starts with ^[
(i.e., \e in perl) must be a key input sequence. Finally, given an
input that starts with ^[, read more characters until we have read a
full escape sequence, then return that to the caller. We use a
timeout of 0.5 seconds on the subsequent reads to avoid getting stuck
if the user actually input a lone ^[.
Since none of the currently recognized keys start with ^[, the net
result is that the sequence as a whole will be ignored and the help
displayed.

send-pack: avoid deadlock on git:// push with failed pack-objects
Commit 09c9957c fixes a deadlock in which pack-objects
fails, the remote end is still waiting for pack data, and we
are still waiting for the remote end to say something (see
that commit for a much more in-depth explanation).
We solved the problem there by making sure the output pipe
is closed on error; thus the remote sees EOF, and proceeds
to complain and close its end of the connection.
However, in the special case of push over git://, we don't
have a pipe, but rather a full-duplex socket, with another
dup()-ed descriptor in place of the second half of the pipe.
In this case, closing the second descriptor signals nothing
to the remote end, and we still deadlock.
This patch calls shutdown() explicitly to signal EOF to the
other side.

connect: let callers know if connection is a socket
They might care because they want to do a half-duplex close.
With pipes, that means simply closing the output descriptor;
with a socket, you must actually call shutdown.
Instead of exposing the magic no_fork child_process struct,
let's encapsulate the test in a function.
Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
connect: treat generic proxy processes like ssh processes
The git_connect function returns two ends of a pipe for
talking with a remote, plus a struct child_process
representing the other end of the pipe. If we have a direct
socket connection, then this points to a special "no_fork"
child process.
The code path for doing git-over-pipes or git-over-ssh sets
up this child process to point to the child git command or
the ssh process. When we call finish_connect eventually, we
check wait() on the command and report its return value.
The code path for git://, on the other hand, always sets it
to no_fork. In the case of a direct TCP connection, this
makes sense; we have no child process. But in the case of a
proxy command (configured by core.gitproxy), we do have a
child process, but we throw away its pid, and therefore
ignore its return code.
Instead, let's keep that information in the proxy case, and
respect its return code, which can help catch some errors
(though depending on your proxy command, it will be errors
reported by the proxy command itself, and not propagated
from git commands. Still, it is probably better to propagate
such errors than to ignore them).
It also means that the child_process field can reliably be
used to determine whether the returned descriptors are
actually a full-duplex socket, which means we should be
using shutdown() instead of a simple close.

setup_revisions(): take pathspec from command line and --stdin correctly

Fix it by consistently using append_prune_data() throughout the input
processing. Also avoid counting the number of existing paths in the
function over and over again.
The zsh support of git-completion script in contrib/ is broken for current
versions of zsh, and does not notice when there's a subcommand.
For example: "git log origi<TAB>" gives no completions because it would
try to find a "git origi..." command. This will be fixed by zsh 4.3.12,
but for now we can workaround it by backporting the same fix as zsh folks
implemented.
The problem started after commit v1.7.4-rc0~11^2~2 (bash: get
--pretty=m<tab> completion to work with bash v4), which introduced
_get_comp_words_by_ref() that comes from bash-completion[1] scripts, and
relies on the 'words' variable.
However, it turns out 'words' is a special variable used by zsh
completion. From zshcompwid(1):
[...] the parameters are reset on each function exit (including nested
function calls from within the completion widget) to the values they had
when the function was entered.
As a result, subcommand words are lost. Ouch.
This is now fixed in the latest master branch of zsh[2] by simply defining
'words' as hidden (typeset -h), which removes the special meaning inside
the emulated bash function. So let's do the same.

Honor $(prefix) set in config.mak* when defining ETC_GIT*
Notice that the prefix specified for the build influenced the definitions
of ETC_GITCONFIG and ETC_GITATTRIBUTES only when it was exactly '/usr'.
Kacper Kornet noticed that this was furthermore only the case when the
build was triggered using 'make prefix=/usr', i.e., the prefix was given
on the command line; it did not work when the prefix was specified in
config.mak because this file is included much later in the Makefile.
To fix this, move the conditional after the inclusion of config.mak.
Additionally, it is desirable to specify the etc directory for a build
(for example, a build with prefix /usr/local may still want to have the
system configuration in /etc/gitconfig). For this purpose, promote the
variable 'sysconfdir' from a helper variable to a configuration
variable. The prefix check that was moved must now be wrapped so that it
does not override sysconfdir setting given in config.mak.

Revert "Honor $(prefix) set in config.mak* when defining ETC_GIT* and sysconfdir"
This reverts commit 2910bf56a4ffc13c398fb04ba32910cb3b724091, as it
does not really solve the issue of making $(sysconfigdir) any more
useful than it currently is.
Kacper Kornet noticed that a $variable in "word" in the above construct is
not substituted by his pdksh. Modern POSIX compliant shells (e.g. dash,
ksh, bash) all seem to interpret POSIX "2.6.2 Parameter Expansion" that
says "word shall be subjected to tilde expansion, parameter expansion,
command substitution, and arithmetic expansion" in ${parameter<op>word},
to mean that the word is expanded as if it appeared in dq pairs, so if the
word were "'$variable'" (sans dq) it would expand to a single quote, the
value of the $variable and then a single quote.
Johannes Sixt reports that the behavior of quoting at the right of :- when
the ${...:-...} expansion appears in double-quotes was debated recently at
length at the Austin group. We can avoid this issue and future-proof the
test by a slight rewrite.
