daemon: consider only address in kill_some_child()
kill_some_child() compares the entire sockaddr_storage
structure (with the pad-bits zeroed out) when trying to
find out if connections originate from the same host.
However, sockaddr_storage contains the port-number for
the connection (which varies between connections), so
the comparison always fails.
Change the code so we only consider the host-address,
by introducing the addrcmp()-function that inspects
the address family and compare as appropriate.

The pattern only applies to one file (ppc/sha1ppc.S) and that

remotes.default has been set in the config file:
fatal: 'default' does not appear to be a git repository

The problem is that the --multiple option is not passed to

CVS Server: Support reading base and roots from environment
The Gitosis single-account Git/ssh hosting system runs git commands
through git-shell after confirming that the connecting user is
authorized to access the requested repository. This works well for
upload-pack and receive-pack, which take a repository argument through
git-shell. This doesn't work so well for `cvs server', which is passed
through literally, with no arguments. Allowing arguments risks
sneaking in `--export-all', so that restriction should be maintained.
Despite that, passing a repository root is necessary for per-user
access control by the hosting software, and passing a base path
improves usability without weakening security. Thus, git-cvsserver
needs to come up with these values at runtime by some other
means. Since git-shell preserves the environment for other purposes,
the environment can carry these arguments as well.
Thus, modify git-cvsserver to read $GIT_CVSSERVER_{BASE_PATH,ROOT} in
the absence of equivalent command line arguments.

Commit 952dfc6 tried to tighten the safety valves for doing
a "reset --hard" in a bare repository or outside the work
tree, but accidentally broke the case for GIT_WORK_TREE.
This patch unbreaks it.
Most git commands which need a work tree simply use
NEED_WORK_TREE in git.c to die before they get to their
cmd_* function. Reset, however, only needs a work tree in
some cases, and so must handle the work tree itself. The
error that 952dfc6 made was to simply forbid certain
operations if the work tree was not set up; instead, we need
to do the same thing that NEED_WORK_TREE does, which is to
call setup_work_tree(). We no longer have to worry about dying
in the non-worktree case, as setup_work_tree handles that
for us.

reuse curl sessions; there is no need to manually avoid the extra overhead

Input to "grep" is supposed to be "text", but we deliberately feed output
from "git diff --color" to sift it into two sets of lines (ones with
errors, the other without). Some implementations of "grep" only report
matches with the exit status, without showing the matched lines in their
output (e.g. OpenBSD 4.6, which says "Binary file .. matches").
Fortunately, "grep -a" is often a way to force the command to treat its
input as text.
t1200: work around a bug in some implementations of "find"
"find path ..." command should exit with zero status only when all path

status and break the last test in t1200.
Rewrite the test to check that there is no regular files in the objects
fan-out directories to work around this bug; it is closer to what we are
testing anyway.

git-svn: exclude already merged tips using one rev-list call
The old function would have to check all mentioned merge tips, every time

for each listed mergeinfo line. If there are a lot of feature branches
being merged into a trunk, this makes for a very expensive operation for
detecting the new parents on every merge.

The "git rebase -i" command, however, aborts without cleaning

editor, so you'll need to do "git rebase --abort" before
