commit: tweak empty cherry pick advice for sequencer
When we refuse to make an empty commit, we check whether we
are in a cherry-pick in order to give better advice on how
to proceed. We instruct the user to repeat the commit with
"--allow-empty" to force the commit, or to use "git reset"
to skip it and abort the cherry-pick.
In the case of a single cherry-pick, the distinction between
skipping and aborting is not important, as there is no more
work to be done afterwards. When we are using the sequencer
to cherry pick a series of commits, though, the instruction
is confusing: does it skip this commit, or does it abort the
rest of the cherry-pick?
It does skip, after which the user can continue the
cherry-pick. This is the right thing to be advising the user
to do, but let's make it more clear what will happen, both
by using the word "skip", and by mentioning that the rest of
the sequence can be continued via "cherry-pick --continue"
(whether we skip or take the commit).

The --global section of git-config(1) currently reads like:
For writing options: write to global /.gitconfig file rather than the
^
start tilde
repository .git/config, write to $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/git/config file if
this file exists and the/.gitconfig file doesn’t.
^
end tilde
Instead of tilde (~) being interpreted literally, asciidoc subscripts
the text between the two tildes. To fix this problem, use backticks (`)
to quote all the paths in the file uniformly, just like config.txt does.

range-set invariants are: ranges must be (1) non-empty, (2) disjoint,
(3) sorted in ascending order.
line_log_data_insert() breaks the non-empty invariant under the
following conditions: the incoming range is empty and the pathname
attached to the range has not yet been encountered. In this case,
line_log_data_insert() assigns the empty range to a new line_log_data
record without taking any action to ensure that the empty range is
eventually folded out. Subsequent range-set functions crash or throw an
assertion failure upon encountering such an anomaly. Fix this bug.

range-set invariants are: ranges must be (1) non-empty, (2) disjoint,
(3) sorted in ascending order.
During processing, various range-set utility functions break the
invariants (for instance, by adding empty ranges), with the
expectation that a finalizing sort_and_merge_range_set() will restore
sanity.
sort_and_merge_range_set(), however, neglects to fold out empty
ranges, thus it fails to satisfy the non-empty constraint. Subsequent
range-set functions crash or throw an assertion failure upon
encountering such an anomaly. Rectify the situation by having
sort_and_merge_range_set() fold out empty ranges.

open_istream: remove unneeded check for null pointer
'st' is allocated via xmalloc a few lines before and passed to
the stream opening functions.
The xmalloc function is written in a way that either 'st' is allocated
valid memory or xmalloc already dies.
The function calls to open_istream_* do not change 'st', as the pointer is
passed by reference and not a pointer of a pointer.
Hence 'st' cannot be null at that part of the code.

The purpose of git-contacts is to determine a list of people who might
have some interest in a patch or set of changes. It can be used as
git-send-email's --cc-cmd argument or the computed list might be used to
ask for comments on a proposed change. As such, it is important to
report up-to-date email addresses in the computed list rather than
potentially outdated ones recorded with commits. Apply git's mailmap
functionality to the retrieved contacts in order to achieve this goal.

This script lists people that might be interested in a patch by going
back through the history for each patch hunk, and finding people that
reviewed, acknowledged, signed, authored, or were Cc:'d on the code the
patch is modifying.
It does this by running git-blame incrementally on each hunk and then
parsing the commit message. After gathering all participants, it
determines each person's relevance by considering how many commits
mentioned that person compared with the total number of commits under
consideration. The final output consists only of participants who pass a
minimum threshold of participation.
Several conditions controlling a person's significance are currently
hard-coded, such as minimum participation level, blame date-limiting,
and -C level for detecting moved and copied lines. In the future, these
conditions may become configurable.
For example:
% git contacts 0001-remote-hg-trivial-cleanups.patch

traverse_trees(): clarify return value of the callback
The variable name "ret" sounds like the variable to be returned, but
since e6c111b4 we return error, and it is misleading.
As this variable tells us which trees in t[] array were used in the
callback function, so that this caller can know the entries in which
of the trees need advancing, "trees_used" is a better name.
Also the assignment to 0 was removed at the start of the function as
well after the "if (interesting)" block. Those are unneeded as that
variable is set to the callback return value any time we enter the
"if (interesting)" block, so we'd overwrite old values anyway.
