"git commit-tree" plumbing command required the user to always sign
its result when the user sets the commit.gpgsign configuration
variable, which was an ancient mistake. Rework "git rebase" that
relied on this mistake so that it reads commit.gpgsign and pass (or
not pass) the -S option to "git commit-tree" to keep the end-user
expectation the same, while teaching "git commit-tree" to ignore
the configuration variable. This will stop requiring the users to
sign commit objects used internally as an implementation detail of

Instead of reusing the same set of message templates for checkout

separate message templates for each known action. That would make

submodule deinit: require '--all' instead of '.' for all submodules
The discussion in [1] pointed out that '.' is a faulty suggestion as
there is a corner case where it fails:
> "submodule deinit ." may have "worked" in the sense that you would
> have at least one path in your tree and avoided this "nothing
> matches" most of the time. It would have still failed with the
> exactly same error if run in an empty repository, i.e.
>
> $ E=/var/tmp/x/empty && rm -fr "$E" && mkdir -p "$E" && cd "$E"
> $ git init
> $ rungit v2.6.6 submodule deinit .
> error: pathspec '.' did not match any file(s) known to git.
> Did you forget to 'git add'?
> $ >file && git add file
> $ rungit v2.6.6 submodule deinit .
> $ echo $?
> 0
So instead of a pathspec add the '--all' option to deinit all submodules
and add a test to check for the corner case of an empty repository.
The code only needs to learn about the '--all' option and doesn't
require further changes as `git submodule--helper list "$@"` will list
all submodules when "$@" is empty.

hooks: allow customizing where the hook directory is
Change the hardcoded lookup for .git/hooks/* to optionally lookup in
$(git config core.hooksPath)/* instead.
This is essentially a more intrusive version of the git-init ability to
specify hooks on init time via init templates.
The difference between that facility and this feature is that this can
be set up after the fact via e.g. ~/.gitconfig or /etc/gitconfig to
apply for all your personal repositories, or all repositories on the
system.
I plan on using this on a centralized Git server where users can create
arbitrary repositories under /gitroot, but I'd like to manage all the
hooks that should be run centrally via a unified dispatch mechanism.

Any ACL you implement via an 'update' hook isn't actual access control

nothing documented this explicitly, but the current behavior is
predictable. It helps a lot to know what directory these hooks will
be executed from.
* We don't make claims about the example hooks which may not be true
depending on the configuration of 'init.templateDir'. Clarify that
we're talking about the default settings of git-init in those cases,
and move some of this documentation into git-init's documentation

We have a dedicated section for various value-types used in the
configuration variables already, because we needed to describe how
booleans and scaled integers can be spelled, and the pathname type
would fit there.
Adjust the description of `include.path`, `core.excludesFile` and
`commit.template` variables slightly to clarify that these variables
are of this type.
"git describe --contains" often made a hard-to-justify choice of
tag to give name to a given commit, because it tried to come up
with a name with smallest number of hops from a tag, causing an old
commit whose close descendant that is recently tagged were not
described with respect to an old tag but with a newer tag. It did
not help that its computation of "hop" count was further tweaked to
penalize being on a side branch of a merge. The logic has been
updated to favor using the tag with the oldest tagger date, which
is a lot easier to explain to the end users: "We describe a commit
in terms of the (chronologically) oldest tag that contains the
commit."

Some multi-byte character encodings (such as Shift_JIS and GBK) have
characters whose final bytes is an ASCII '\' (0x5c), and they
will be displayed as funny-characters even if $fallback_encoding is
correct. This is because `highlight` command always expects UTF-8
encoded strings from STDIN.
commit-tree: do not pay attention to commit.gpgsign
ba3c69a9 (commit: teach --gpg-sign option, 2011-10-05) introduced a
"signed commit" by teaching the --[no]-gpg-sign option and the
commit.gpgsign configuration variable to various commands that
create commits.
Teaching these to "git commit" and "git merge", both of which are
end-user facing Porcelain commands, was perfectly fine. Allowing
the plumbing "git commit-tree" to suddenly change the behaviour to
surprise the scripts by paying attention to commit.gpgsign was not.
Among the in-tree scripts, filter-branch, quiltimport, rebase and
stash are the commands that run "commit-tree". If any of these
wants to allow users to always sign every single commit, they should
offer their own configuration (e.g. "filterBranch.gpgsign") with an
option to disable signing (e.g. "git filter-branch --no-gpgsign").
Ignoring commit.gpgsign option _obviously_ breaks the backward
compatibility, but it is easy to follow the standard pattern in
scripts to honor whatever configuration variable they choose to
follow. E.g.
case $(git config --bool commit.gpgsign) in
true) sign=-S ;;
*) sign= ;;
esac &&
git commit-tree $sign ...whatever other args...
Do so to make sure that "git rebase" keeps paying attention to the
configuration variable, which unfortunately is a documented mistake.

Reroute the output of stdout to stderr as it is just informative
messages, not to be consumed by machines.
This should not regress any scripts that try to parse the
current output, as the output is already internationalized
and therefore unstable.
We want to init submodules from the helper for `submodule update`
in a later patch and the stdout output of said helper is consumed
by the parts of `submodule update` which are still written in shell.
So we have to be careful which messages are on stdout.

The last test added to 't5510-fetch' in 0898c9628104 (fetch: release
pack files before garbage-collecting, 2016-01-13) may sporadically
trigger following error message from the test harness:
rm: cannot remove 'trash directory.t5510-fetch/auto-gc/.git': Directory not empty
The test in question forces an auto-gc, which, if the system supports
it, runs in the background by default, and occasionally takes long
enough for the test to finish and for 'test_done' to start
housekeeping. This can lead to the test's 'git gc --auto' in the
background and 'test_done's 'rm -rf $trash' in the foreground racing
each other to create and delete files and directories. It might just
happen that 'git gc' re-creates a directory that 'rm -rf' already
visited and removed, which ultimately triggers the above error.
Disable detaching the auto-gc process to ensure that it finishes
before the test can continue, thus avoiding this racy situation.
