Patch id changes if users reorder file diffs that make up a patch.
As the result is functionally equivalent, a different patch id is
surprising to many users.
In particular, reordering files using diff -O is helpful to make patches
more readable (e.g. API header diff before implementation diff).
Add an option to change patch-id behaviour making it stable against
these kinds of patch change:
calculate SHA1 hash for each hunk separately and sum all hashes
(using a symmetrical sum) to get patch id
We use a 20byte sum and not xor - since xor would give 0 output
for patches that have two identical diffs, which isn't all that
unlikely (e.g. append the same line in two places).
The new behaviour is enabled
- when patchid.stable is true
- when --stable flag is present
Using a new flag --unstable or setting patchid.stable to false force
the historical behaviour.
In the documentation, clarify that patch ID can now be a sum of hashes,
not a hash.
Document how command line and config options affect the
behaviour.

string-list: spell all values out that are given to a string_list initializer
STRING_LIST_INIT_{NODUP,DUP} initializers list values only
for earlier structure members, relying on the usual
convention in C that the omitted members are initailized to
0, i.e. the former is expanded to the latter:
struct string_list l = STRING_LIST_INIT_DUP;
struct string_list l = { NULL, 0, 0, 1 };
and the last member that is not mentioned (i.e. 'cmp') is
initialized to NULL.
While there is nothing wrong in this construct, spelling out
all the values where the macros are defined will serve also
as a documentation, so let's do so.

We used to unconditionally disable the pager in the pager process
we spawn to feed out output, but that prevented people who want to
run "less" within "less" from doing so.
* je/pager-do-not-recurse:
pager: do allow spawning pager recursively
Since the very beginning of Git, we gave the LESS environment a
default value "FRSX" when we spawn "less" as the pager. "S" (chop
long lines instead of wrapping) has been removed from this default
set of options, because it is more or less a personal taste thing,
as opposed to others that have good justifications (i.e. "R" is very
much justified because many kinds of output we produce are colored
and "FX" is justified because output we produce is often shorter
than a page).
Existing users who prefer not to see line-wrapped output may want to
set
$ git config core.pager "less -S"
to restore the traditional behaviour. It is expected that people
find output from the most subcommands easier to read with the new
default, except for "blame" which tends to produce really long
lines. To override the new default only for "git blame", you can do
this:
$ git config pager.blame "less -S"
* mm/pager-less-sans-S:
pager: remove 'S' from $LESS by default
However, the latter does not understand the ref-exclusion command
line option, even though other options understood by "log", such as
"--all" and "--no-merges", are understood.
This was because e7b432c5 (revision: introduce --exclude=<glob> to
tame wildcards, 2013-08-30) did not wire the new option fully to the
machinery. A new option understood by handle_revision_pseudo_opt()
must be told to handle_revision_opt() as well.
t5000, t5003: do not use test_cmp to compare binary files
test_cmp() is primarily meant to compare text files (and display the
difference for debug purposes).
Raw "cmp" is better suited to compare binary files (tar, zip, etc.).
On MinGW, test_cmp is a shell function mingw_test_cmp that tries to
read both files into environment, stripping CR characters (introduced
in commit 4d715ac0).
This function usually speeds things up, as fork is extremly slow on
Windows. But no wonder that this function is extremely slow and
sometimes even crashes when comparing large tar or zip files.

update-index: fix segfault with missing --cacheinfo argument
Running "git update-index --cacheinfo" without any further
arguments results in a segfault rather than an error
message. Commit ec160ae (update-index: teach --cacheinfo a
new syntax "mode,sha1,path", 2014-03-23) added code to
examine the format of the argument, but forgot to handle the
NULL case.
Returning an error from the parser is enough, since we then
treat it as an old-style "--cacheinfo <mode> <sha1> <path>",
and complain that we have less than 3 arguments to read.

mergetool.prompt used to default to 'true', always causing a confirmation
"do you really want to run the tool on this path" to be shown.
Among the two purposes the prompt serves, ignore the use case to
confirm that the user wants to view particular path with the named
tool, and make the prompt only to confirm the choice of the tool
made by autodetection and defaulting. For those who configured the
tool explicitly, the prompt shown for the latter purpose is simply
annoying.
Strictly speaking, this is a backward incompatible change and the
users need to explicitly set the variable to 'true' if they want to
resurrect the now-ignored use case.
