gitweb: Fix handling of non-ASCII characters in inserted HTML files
Use new insert_file() subroutine to insert HTML chunks from external
files: $site_header, $home_text (by default indextext.html),
$site_footer, and $projectroot/$project/REAME.html.
All non-ASCII chars of those files will be broken by Perl IO layer
without decoding to utf8, so insert_file() does to_utf8() on each
printed line; alternate solution would be to open those files with
"binmode $fh, ':utf8'", or even all files with "use open qw(:std :utf8)".
Note that inserting README.html lost one of checks for simplicity.

Add a built-in alias for 'stage' to the 'add' command
This comes from conversation at the GitTogether where we thought it would
be helpful to be able to teach people to 'stage' files because it tends
to cause confusion when told that they have to keep 'add'ing them.
This continues the movement to start referring to the index as a
staging area (eg: the --staged alias to 'git diff'). Also adds a
doc file for 'git stage' that basically points to the docs for
'git add'.

Add backslash to list of 'crud' characters in real name
We remove crud characters at the beginning and end of real-names so that
when we see email addresses like
From: "David S. Miller" <davem@davemloft.net>
we drop the quotes around the name when we parse that and split it up into
name and email.
However, the list of crud characters was basically just a random list of
common things that are found around names, and it didn't contain the
backslash character that some insane scripts seem to use when quoting
things. So now the kernel has a number of authors listed like
Author: \"Rafael J. Wysocki\ <rjw@sisk.pl>
because the author name had started out as
From: \"Rafael J. Wysocki\" <rjw@sisk.pl>
and the only "crud" character we noticed and removed was the final
double-quote at the end.
We should probably do better quote removal from names anyway, but this is
the minimal obvious patch.

bisect: fix "git bisect skip <commit>" and add tests cases
The patch that allows "git bisect skip" to be passed a range of

it introduces a regression when it was passed a simple rev or commit.
"git bisect skip <commit>" doesn't work any more, because <commit>
is quoted but not properly unquoted.

gitk: Fix context menu items for generating diffs when in tree mode
We have always had a nice way to reset a working tree to another state
while carrying our changes around: "git read-tree -u -m". Yes, it fails if
the target tree is different in the paths that are dirty in the working
tree, but this is how we used to switch branches in "git checkout", and it
worked fine.
However, perhaps exactly _because_ we've supported this from very early
on, another low-level command, namely "git reset", never did.
But as time went on, 'git reset' remains as a very common command, while
'git read-tree' is now a very odd and low-level plumbing thing that nobody
sane should ever use, because it only makes sense together with other
operations like either switching branches or just rewriting HEAD.
Which means that we have effectively lost the ability to do something very
common: jump to another point in time without always dropping all our
dirty state.
So add this kind of mode to "git reset", and since it merges your changes
to what you are resetting to, just call it that: "git reset --merge".
I've wanted this for a long time, since I very commonly carry a dirty
tree while working on things. My main 'Makefile' file quite often has the
next version already modified, and sometimes I have local modifications
that I don't want to commit, but I still do pulls and patch applications,
and occasionally want to do "git reset" to undo them - while still keeping
my local modifications.
(Maybe we could eventually change it to something like "if we have a
working tree, default to --merge, otherwise default to --mixed").
NOTE! This new mode is certainly not perfect. There's a few things to look
out for:
- if the index has unmerged entries, "--merge" will currently simply
refuse to reset ("you need to resolve your current index first").
You'll need to use "--hard" or similar in this case.
This is sad, because normally a unmerged index means that the working
tree file should have matched the source tree, so the correct action is
likely to make --merge reset such a path to the target (like --hard),
regardless of dirty state in-tree or in-index. But that's not how
read-tree has ever worked, so..
- "git checkout -m" actually knows how to do a three-way merge, rather
than refuse to update the working tree. So we do know how to do that,
and arguably that would be even nicer behavior.
At the same time it's also arguably true that there is a chance of loss
of state (ie you cannot get back to the original tree if the three-way
merge ends up resolving cleanly to no diff at all), so the "refuse to
do it" is in some respects the safer - but less user-friendly - option.
In other words, I think 'git reset --merge' could become a bit more
friendly, but this is already a big improvement. It allows you to undo a
recent commit without having to throw your current work away.
Yes, yes, with a dirty tree you could always do
git stash
git reset --hard
git stash apply
instead, but isn't "git reset --merge" a nice way to handle one particular
simple case?
Hmm? Maybe I'm the only one that does a lot of work with a dirty tree, and
sure, I can do other things like the "git stash" thing, or using "git
checkout" to actually create a new branch, and then playing games with
branch renaming etc to make it work like this one.
But I suspect others dislike how "git reset" works too. But see the
suggested improvements above.

gitk: Fix bug in accessing undefined "notflag" variable

initialized. Since it isn't used either, this removes it entirely.
gitk: Highlight only when search type is "containing:".
When the search type is "touching paths" or "adding/removing string",
it's not very useful to highlight instances of the search string in
the commit message, headline or author name, so this disables the
highlighting in those cases.
This was suggested by Mark Burton <markb@ordern.com>, but the
implementation is different to his patch, which tested $gdttype at
each place where $markingmatches was tested.

gitweb: make gitweb_check_feature a boolean wrapper
The gitweb_get_feature() function retrieves the configuration parameters
for the feature (such as the list of snapshot formats or the list of
additional actions), but it is very often used to see if feature is
enabled (which is returned as the first element in the list).
Because accepting the returned list in the scalar context by mistake
yields the number of elements in the array, which is non-zero in all
cases, such a mistake would result in a bug for the latter use, with
disabled features appearing enabled. All existing callers that call the
function for this purpose assign the return value in the list context to
retrieve the first element, but that is only because we fixed careless
callers recently.
This adds gitweb_check_feature() as a wrapper to gitweb_get_feature() that
can be called safely in the scalar context to see if a feature is enabled
to reduce the risk of future bugs. Callers of "get" that use the call
only to see if the feature is enabled are updated to call this wrapper.

list and calling it in the scalar context does not give its first element
that tells if the feature is enabled. This fixes all the existing callers
to call the function correctly in the list context.
git add --intent-to-add: do not let an empty blob be committed by accident
Writing a tree out of an index with an "intent to add" entry is blocked.
This implies that you cannot "git commit" from such a state; however you
can still do "git commit -a" or "git commit $that_path".
git add --intent-to-add: fix removal of cached emptiness
This uses the extended index flag mechanism introduced earlier to mark
the entries added to the index via "git add -N" with CE_INTENT_TO_ADD.
The logic to detect an "intent to add" entry for the purpose of allowing
"git rm --cached $path" is tightened to check not just for a staged empty
blob, but with the CE_INTENT_TO_ADD bit. This protects an empty blob that
was explicitly added and then modified in the work tree from being dropped
with this sequence:

An earlier commit 916d081 (Nicer error messages in case saving an object

which is an unlikely error from mkstemp().
This avoids the following misleading error message:
error: unable to create temporary sha1 filename ./objects/15: File exists
mkstemp can fail for many reasons, one of which, ENOENT, can occur if
the directory for the temp file doesn't exist. create_tmpfile tried to
handle this case by always trying to mkdir the directory, even if it
already existed. This caused errno to be clobbered, so one cannot tell
why mkstemp really failed, and it truncated the buffer to just the
directory name, resulting in the strange error message shown above.
Note that in both occasions that I've seen this failure, it has not been
due to a missing directory, or bad permissions, but some other, unknown
mkstemp failure mode that did not occur when I ran git again. This code
could perhaps be made more robust by retrying mkstemp, in case it was a
transient failure.

Sometimes it's handy to complete full refs, e.g. the user has some
refs outside of refs/{heads,remotes,tags} or the user wants to
complete some git command's special refs (like 'git show
refs/bisect/bad').
To do that, we check whether the ref to be completed starts with
'refs/' or is 'refs' (to reduce the risk of matching 'refs-'). If it
does, then we offer full refs for completion; otherwise everything
works as usual.
This way the impact on the common case is fairly small (hopefully not
many users have branches or tags starting with 'refs'), and in the
special case the cost of typing out 'refs' is bearable.
While at it, also remove the unused 'cmd' variable from '__git_refs'.

bisect: teach "skip" to accept special arguments like "A..B"
The current "git bisect skip" syntax is "git bisect skip [<rev>...]"
so it's already possible to skip a range of revisions using
something like:
$ git bisect skip $(git rev-list A..B)
where A and B are the bounds of the range we want to skip.
This patch teaches "git bisect skip" to accept:
$ git bisect skip A..B
as an abbreviation for the former command.
This is done by checking each argument to see if it contains two
dots one after the other ('..'), and by expending it using
"git rev-list" if that is the case.
Note that this patch will not make "git bisect skip" accept all
that "git rev-list" accepts, as things like "^A B" for exemple
will not work. But things like "A B..C D E F.. ..G H...I" should
work as expected.
