Rename detection is a very convenient feature, and new users shouldn't
have to dig in the documentation to benefit from it.
Potential objections to activating rename detection are that it
sometimes fail, and it is sometimes slow. But rename detection is
already activated by default in several cases like "git status" and "git
merge", so activating diff.renames does not fundamentally change the
situation. When the rename detection fails, it now fails consistently
between "git diff" and "git status".
This setting does not affect plumbing commands, hence well-written
scripts will not be affected.

Documentation/diff-config: fix description of diff.renames
The description was misleading, since "set to any boolean value" include
"set to false", and diff.renames=false does not enable basic detection,
but actually disables it. Also, document that diff.renames only affects
Porcelain.

The conversion from "svn.pathnameencoding" to UTF-8 should be applied

makes non-UTF-8 URL which causes error from Subversion such as

mergetool: reorder vim/gvim buffers in three-way diffs
When invoking default (g)vimdiff three-way merge, the merged file is
loaded as the first buffer but moved to the bottom as the fourth window.
This causes a disconnect between vim commands that operate on window
positions (e.g. CTRL-W_w) and those that operate on buffer index (e.g.
do/dp).
This change reorders the buffers to have the same index as windows while
keeping the cursor default to the merged result as the bottom window.

ident: add user.useConfigOnly boolean for when ident shouldn't be guessed
It used to be that:
git config --global user.email "(none)"
was a viable way for people to force themselves to set user.email in
each repository. This was helpful for people with more than one
email address, targeting different email addresses for different
clones, as it barred git from creating a commit unless the user.email
config was set in the per-repo config to the correct email address.
A recent change, 19ce497c (ident: keep a flag for bogus
default_email, 2015-12-10), however, declared that an explicitly
configured user.email is not bogus, no matter what its value is, so
this hack no longer works.
Provide the same functionality by adding a new configuration
variable user.useConfigOnly; when this variable is set, the
user must explicitly set user.email configuration.

Asking gitweb for a nonexistent commit left a warning in the server

Somebody may want to follow this up with a new test, perhaps?
IIRC, we do test that no Perl warnings are given to the server log,
so this should have been caught if our test coverage were good.
Some codepaths used fopen(3) when opening a fixed path in $GIT_DIR
(e.g. COMMIT_EDITMSG) that is meant to be left after the command is
done. This however did not work well if the repository is set to
be shared with core.sharedRepository and the umask of the previous
user is tighter. They have been made to work better by calling
unlink(2) and retrying after fopen(3) fails with EPERM.

setting GIT_WORK_TREE environment themselves.
* nd/stop-setenv-work-tree:
Revert "setup: set env $GIT_WORK_TREE when work tree is set, like $GIT_DIR"
This function has evolved quite a bit over time, and as a
result, the logic for "is this an OK ident" has been
sprinkled throughout. This ends up with a lot of redundant
conditionals, like checking want_name repeatedly. Worse,
we want to know in many cases whether we are using the
"default" ident, and we do so by comparing directly to the
global strbuf, which violates the abstraction of the
ident_default_* functions.
Let's reorganize the function into a hierarchy of
conditionals to handle similar cases together. The only
case that doesn't just work naturally for this is that of an
empty name, where our advice is different based on whether
we came from ident_default_name() or not. We can use a
simple flag to cover this case.
