git-send-email.perl: make initial In-Reply-To apply only to first email
When an initial --in-reply-to is supplied, make it apply only to the
first message; --[no-]chain-reply-to setting are honored by second and
subsequent messages; this is also how the git-format-patch option with
the same name behaves.
Moreover, when $initial_reply_to is asked to the user interactively it
is asked as the "Message-ID to be used as In-Reply-To for the _first_
email", this makes the user think that the second and subsequent
patches are not using it but are considered as replies to the first
message or chained according to the --[no-]chain-reply setting.
Look at the v2 series in the illustration to see what the new behavior
ensures:
(before the patch) | (after the patch)
[PATCH 0/2] Here is what I did... | [PATCH 0/2] Here is what I did...
[PATCH 1/2] Clean up and tests | [PATCH 1/2] Clean up and tests
[PATCH 2/2] Implementation | [PATCH 2/2] Implementation
[PATCH v2 0/3] Here is a reroll | [PATCH v2 0/3] Here is a reroll

[PATCH v2 2/3] New tests | [PATCH v2 2/3] New tests
[PATCH v2 3/3] Implementation | [PATCH v2 3/3] Implementation
This is the typical behaviour we want when we send a series with cover
letter in reply to some discussion, the new patch series should appear
as a separate subtree in the discussion.
Also update the documentation on --in-reply-to to describe the new
behavior.

Documentation: point to related commands from gitignore
A frequently asked question on #git is how to stop tracking a file
that is mistakenly tracked by git. A frequently attempted strategy is
to add such files to .gitignore.
Thus one might imagine that the gitignore documentation could be a
good entry point for 'git rm' documentation. Add some
cross-references in this vein.
While at it, move a reference to update-index --assume-unchanged from
the DESCRIPTION to lower down on the page. This way, the methodical

how they relate to other git facilities.

Remove pack file handling dependency from wrapper.o
As v1.7.0-rc0~43 (slim down "git show-index", 2010-01-21) explains,
use of xmalloc() brings in a dependency on zlib, the sha1 lib, and the
rest of git's object file access machinery via try_to_free_pack_memory.
That is overkill when xmalloc is just being used as a convenience
wrapper to exit when no memory is available.
So defer setting try_to_free_pack_memory as try_to_free_routine until
the first packfile is opened in add_packed_git().
After this change, a simple program using xmalloc() and no other
functions will not pull in any code from libgit.a aside from wrapper.o
and usage.o.

git_mkstemp_mode and related functions do not require access to

notes.h/c: Allow combine_notes functions to remove notes
Allow combine_notes functions to request that a note be removed, by setting
the resulting note SHA1 to null_sha1 (0000000...).
For consistency, also teach note_tree_insert() to skip insertion of an empty
note (a note with entry->val_sha1 equal to null_sha1) when there is no note
to combine it with.
In general, an empty note (null_sha1) is treated identically to no note at
all, but when adding an empty note where there already exists a non-empty
note, we allow the combine_notes function to potentially record a new/changed
note. Document this behaviour, and clearly specify how combine_notes functions
are expected to handle null_sha1 in input.
Before this patch, storing null_sha1s in the notes tree were silently allowed,
causing an invalid notes tree (referring to blobs with null_sha1) to be
produced by write_notes_tree().

t9001: send-email interation with --in-reply-to and --chain-reply-to
1. When --in-reply-to gives $reply_to, the first one becomes a reply to
that message, with or without --chain-reply-to.
2. When --chain-reply-to is in effect, all the messages are strung
together to form a single chain. The first message may be in reply to
the $reply_to given by --in-reply-to command line option (see
previous), or the root of the discussion thread. The second one is a
response to the first one, and the third one is a response to the
second one, etc.
3. When --chain-reply-to is not in effect:
a. When --in-reply-to is used, too, the second and the subsequent ones
become replies to $reply_to. Together with the first rule, all
messages become replies to $reply_to given by --in-reply-to.
b. When --in-reply-to is not used, presumably the second and

root.

case (i.e. prefixcmp(refname, "refs/remotes")).
Also, we use 'remote-tracking branch' in generated merge messages (by
merge an fmt-merge-msg).

Change incorrect uses of "remote branch" meaning "remote-tracking"
"remote branch" is a branch hosted in a remote repository, while
"remote-tracking branch" is a copy of such branch, hosted locally.
The distinction is subtle when the copy is up-to-date, but rather
fundamental to understand what "git fetch" and "git push" do.
This patch should fix all incorrect usages in Documentation/ directory.

Change "tracking branch" to "remote-tracking branch"
One more step towards consistancy. We change the documentation and the C
code in a single patch, since the only instances in the C code are in
comment and usage strings.

Better "Changed but not updated" message in git-status
Older Gits talked about "updating" a file to add its content to the
index, but this terminology is confusing for new users. "to stage" is far
more intuitive and already used in e.g. the "git stage" command name.

apply: don't segfault on binary files with missing data
Usually when applying a binary diff generated without
--binary, it will be rejected early, as we don't even have
the full sha1 of the pre- and post-images.
However, if the diff is generated with --full-index (but not
--binary), then we will actually try to apply it. If we have
the postimage blob, then we can take a shortcut and never
even look at the binary diff at all (e.g., this can happen
when rebasing changes within a repository).
If we don't have the postimage blob, though, we try to look
at the actual fragments, of which there are none, and get a
segfault. This patch checks explicitly for that case and
complains to the user instead of segfaulting. We need to
keep the check at a low level so that the "shortcut" case
above continues to work.
We also add a test that demonstrates the segfault. While
we're at it, let's also explicitly test the shortcut case.

6df42ab (Add global and system-wide gitattributes, 2010-09-01) forgot
to quote one instance of $HOME in the tests. This would be valid
according to POSIX, but bash 4 helpfully declines to execute the
command in question with an "ambiguous redirection" error.

contrib/ciabot: git-describe commit instead of HEAD
For each commit a shorter version of the name will be generated. This is
either the truncated hash or the output of git-describe. The
call to git-describe was only made with an empty shell variable instead
of an actual commit hash. Thus it only described the current HEAD and
not each commit we want to submit to cia.vc.

Inside an element of an enumerated list, the second and subsequent
paragraphs need to lose their indent and have to be strung together with a
line with a single '+' on it instead. Otherwise the lines below are shown
in typewriter face, which just looks wrong.
