When mergetool is run without path limiters it loops
over each entry in 'git ls-files -u'. This includes
autoresolved paths.
Teach mergetool to only merge files listed in 'rerere status'
when rerere is enabled.
There are some subtle but harmless changes in behavior.
We now call cd_to_toplevel when no paths are given.
We do this because 'rerere status' paths are always relative
to the root. This is beneficial for the non-rerere use as
well in that mergetool now runs against all unmerged files
regardless of the current directory.
This also slightly tweaks the output when run without paths
to be more readable.
The old output:
Merging the files: foo
bar
baz
The new output:
Merging:
foo
bar
baz

Currently git-svn assumes that two tags created from the same
revision will have the same repo url, so it uses a ref to the
tag without checking that its url matches the current url.
This causes issues when fetching an svn repo where a tag was
created, deleted, and then recreated under the following
circumstances:
- Both tags were copied from the same revision.
- Both tags had the same name.
- Both tags had different repository paths.
- [Optional] Both tags have a file with the same name but
different content.
When all four conditions are met, a checksum mismatch error
occurs because the content of two files with the same path
differs (see t/t9155--git-svn-fetch-deleted-tag.sh):
When only the first three conditions are met, no error occurs
but the tag in git matches the first (deleted) tag instead of
the last (most recent) tag (see
t/t9156-git-svn-fetch-deleted-tag-2.sh).
The fix is to verify that the repo url for the ref matches the
current url. If the urls do not match, then a "tail" is grown
on the tag name by appending a dash and rechecking the new ref's
repo url until either a matching repo url is found or a new tag
is created.

Fix a regular expression used to remove the revision from the
end of an svn tag or branch name. The regex did not account for
any "tail" (dashes) that may have been added to the end of the
tag name (which first appeared in v1.4.1-rc2~11). If not fixed,
tags with names like "tags/mytag@5--@2" may be created.

There are two ways a user might want to use "diff --relative":
1. For a file in a directory, like "subdir/file", the user
can use "--relative=subdir/" to strip the directory.
2. To strip part of a filename, like "foo-10", they can
use "--relative=foo-".
We currently handle both of those situations. However, if the user passes
"--relative=subdir" (without the trailing slash), we produce inconsistent
results. For the unified diff format, we collapse the double-slash of
"a//file" correctly into "a/file". But for other formats (raw, stat,
name-status), we end up with "/file".
We can do what the user means here and strip the extra "/" (and only a
slash). We are not hurting any existing users of (2) above with this
behavior change because the existing output for this case was nonsensical.

Since there are WEBrick configuration settings (including the
upcoming AccessLog support) that cannot be represented in YAML
and require Ruby anyways, the YAML config file is an unnecessary
layer of complexity.
Additionally, the shell script wrapper to start WEBrick is
unecessary since our generated Ruby script can be made
executable in the same manner with /usr/bin/env.
This has been broken since commit be5347b ("httpd logs in a
"$httpd_only" subdirectory").
Since WEBrick has no other way of preserving environment
variables needed for gitweb, we create a shell script wrapper
that sets the environment variables as our CGI interpreter
to run gitweb.cgi.

The current description in the pull man page does not say much more
than that “git pull” is fetch + merge. Though that is all a person
needs to know in the end, it would be useful to summarize a bit about
what those commands do for new readers.
Most of this description is taken from the “git merge” docs.
Now that we explain how to back out of a failed merge (reset --merge),
we can tone down the warning against that a bit.
Except, as Thomas noticed, there’s a risk with that because people
might read this version of the manpage online and then conclude that
it is safe to try a merge with uncommitted changes, only to find that
their “git reset” doesn't support --merge yet. Or worse, verify that
their git-reset has --merge by a quick test (1b5b465 is in 1.6.2) but
then find that it does not help with backing out of a merge (e11d7b5
is only in 1.7.0!). So keep the warning.
With clarifications from Ævar, Thomas, and Junio.

`description` is a short string to describe the effect of the option.
It shall begin with a lower-case letter and a full stop (`.`) shall be
omitted at the end.
It also makes it less confusing if the argument is 'no.' or 'no'.

Clarify help message when no remote is specified in fetch/pull.
The message is especially confusing when "git fetch" is ran from "git
pull", for users not aware of "git fetch". The new message makes it clear
that "fetch" means "fetch new revisions", and gives hint on the solution.
We don't add a advice.* configuration option since this message doesn't
appear in normal use, and shouldn't disturb advanced users.

The manpage was added in 1ed6f2c (Documentation: gitrevisions,
2010-07-05), but since it does not have a corresponding git command,
it needs an exception for check-docs.

We document how to run prove with the --state option in t/README. This
produces a .prove YAML file in the current directory. Change the t/
gitignore to ignore it, and clean it up on `make clean'.

INSTALL: configure /etc/xml/catalog to build docs on Cygwin
Without additional configuration steps, the documentation build on Cygwin
fails because the XML catalog is missing required rewrites for certain
docbook resources.
This patch documents the required configuration.
