wt-status: fix possible use of uninitialized variable
In wt_status_print_change_data, we accept a change_type flag
that is meant to be either WT_STATUS_UPDATED or
WT_STATUS_CHANGED. We then switch() on this value to set
the local variable "status" for each case, but do not
provide a fallback "default" label to the switch statement.
As a result, the compiler realizes that "status" might be
unset, and complains with a warning. To silence this
warning, we use the "int status = status" trick. This is
correct with the current code, as all callers provide one of
the two expected change_type flags. However, it's also a
maintenance trap, as there is nothing to prevent future
callers from passing another flag, nor to document this
assumption.
Instead of using the "x = x" hack, let's handle the default
case in the switch() statement with a die("BUG"). That tells
the compiler and any readers of the code exactly what the
function's input assumptions are.
We could also convert the flag to an enum, which would
provide a compile-time check on the function input. However,
since these flags are part of a larger enum, that would make
the code unnecessarily complex (we would have to make a new
enum with just the two flags, and then convert it to the old
enum for passing to sub-functions).

fast-import: clarify "inline" logic in file_change_m
When we read a fast-import line like:
M 100644 :1 foo.c
we point the local object_entry variable "oe" to the object
named by the mark ":1". When the input uses the "inline"
construct, however, we do not have such an object_entry.
The current code is careful not to access "oe" in the inline
case, but we can make the assumption even more obvious (and
catch violations of it) by setting oe to NULL and adding a
comment. As a bonus, this also squelches an over-zealous gcc
-Wuninitialized warning, which means we can drop the "oe =
oe" initialization hack.

run-command: always set failed_errno in start_command
When we fail to fork, we set the failed_errno variable to
the value of errno so it is not clobbered by later syscalls.
However, we do so in a conditional, and it is hard to see
later under what conditions the variable has a valid value.
Instead of setting it only when fork fails, let's just
always set it after forking. This is more obvious for human
readers (as we are no longer setting it as a side effect of
a strerror call), and it is more obvious to gcc, which no
longer generates a spurious -Wuninitialized warning. It also
happens to match what the WIN32 half of the #ifdef does.

In cases where the setting and access of a variable are
protected by the same conditional flag, older versions of
gcc would generate a "might be used unitialized" warning. We
silence the warning by initializing the variable to itself,
a hack that gcc recognizes.
Modern versions of gcc are smart enough to get this right,
going back to at least version 4.3.5. gcc 4.1 does get it
wrong in both cases, but is sufficiently old that we
probably don't need to care about it anymore.

git-completion.bash: zsh does not implement function redirection correctly
A recent change added functions whose entire standard error stream
is redirected to /dev/null using a construct that is valid POSIX.1
but is not widely used:
funcname () {
cd "$1" && run some command "$2"
} 2>/dev/null
Even though this file is "git-completion.bash", zsh completion
support dot-sources it (instead of asking bash to grok it like tcsh
completion does), and zsh does not implement this redirection
correctly.
With zsh, trying to complete an inexistant directory gave this:
git add no-such-dir/__git_ls_files_helper:cd:2: no such file or directory: no-such-dir/
Also these functions use "cd" to first go somewhere else before
running a command, but the location the caller wants them to go that
is given as an argument to them should not be affected by CDPATH
variable the users may have set for their interactive session.
To fix both of these, wrap the body of the function in a subshell,
unset CDPATH at the beginning of the subshell, and redirect the
standard error stream of the subshell to /dev/null.

Split the backward-compatibility notes into two sections, the ones
that affect this release, and the other to describe changes meant
for Git 2.0. The latter gives a context to understand why the
changes for this release is necessary.
Documentation/git-push: clarify the description of defaults
We describe what gets pushed by default when the command line does
not give any <refspec> under the bullet point of <refspec>.
It is a bit unfriendly to expect users to read on <refspec> when
they are not giving any in the first place. "What gets pushed" is
determined by taking many factors (<refspec> argument being only one
of them) into account, and is a property of the entire command, not
an individual argument. Also we do not describe "Where the push
goes" when the command line does not say.
Give the description on "what gets pushed to where" upfront before
explaining individual arguments and options.
Also update the description of <refspec> to say what it is, what it
is used for, before explaining what shape it takes.
Currently this is cosmetic change - the merges are ignored, becuase the methods
(lookup_svn_merge, find_rev_before, find_rev_after) are failing on comparing text with number.

A maildir does not technically record the order in which
items were placed into it. That means that when applying a
patch series from a maildir, we may get the patches in the
wrong order. We try to work around this by sorting the
filenames. Unfortunately, this may or may not work depending
on the naming scheme used by the writer of the maildir.
For instance, mutt will write:
${epoch_seconds}.${pid}_${seq}.${host}
where we have:
- epoch_seconds: timestamp at which entry was written
- pid: PID of writing process
- seq: a sequence number to ensure uniqueness of filenames
- host: hostname
None of the numbers are zero-padded. Therefore, when we sort
the names as byte strings, entries that cross a digit
boundary (e.g., 10) will sort out of order. In the case of
timestamps, it almost never matters (because we do not cross
a digit boundary in the epoch time very often these days).
But for the sequence number, a 10-patch series would be
ordered as 1, 10, 2, 3, etc.
To fix this, we can use a custom sort comparison function
which traverses each string, comparing chunks of digits
numerically, and otherwise doing a byte-for-byte comparison.
That would sort:
123.456_1.bar
123.456_2.bar
...
123.456_10.bar
according to the sequence number. Since maildir does not
define a filename format, this is really just a heuristic.
But it happens to work for mutt, and there is a reasonable
chance that it will work for other writers, too (at least as
well as a straight sort).

Before 82dce99 (attr: more matching optimizations from .gitignore,
2012-10-15), .gitattributes did not have any special treatment of a
leading '!'. The docs, however, always said
The rules how the pattern matches paths are the same as in
`.gitignore` files; see linkgit:gitignore[5].
By those rules, leading '!' means pattern negation. So 82dce99
correctly determined that this kind of line makes no sense and should
be disallowed.
However, users who actually had a rule for files starting with a '!'
are in a bad position: before 82dce99 '!' matched that literal
character, so it is conceivable that users have .gitattributes with
such lines in them. After 82dce99 the unescaped version was
disallowed in such a way that git outright refuses to run(!) most
commands in the presence of such a .gitattributes. It therefore
becomes very hard to fix, let alone work with, such repositories.
Let's at least allow the users to fix their repos: change the fatal
error into a warning.

archive-zip: fix compressed size for stored export-subst files
Currently ZIP archive entries of files with export-subst attribute are
broken if they are stored uncompressed.
We get the size of a file from sha1_object_info(), but this number is
likely wrong for files whose contents are changed due to export-subst
placeholder expansion. We use sha1_file_to_archive() to get the
expanded file contents and size in that case. We proceed to use that
size for the uncompressed size field (good), but the compressed size
field is set based on the size from sha1_object_info() (bad).
This matters only for uncompressed files because for deflated files
we use the correct value after compression is done. And for files
without export-subst expansion the sizes from sha1_object_info() and
sha1_file_to_archive() are the same, so they are unaffected as well.
This patch fixes the issue by setting the compressed size based on the
uncompressed size only after we actually know the latter.
Also make use of the test file substfile1 to check for the breakage;
it was only stored verbatim so far. For that purpose, set the
attribute export-subst and replace its contents with the expected
expansion after committing.

Don't use CREDENTIAL_ATTRIBUTEs to identify credentials for compatibility

I tried to always use backticks for:
* Paths and filenames (e.g. `.git/config`)
* Compound refs (e.g. `origin/HEAD`)
* Git commands (e.g. `git log`)
* Command arguments (e.g. `--pretty`)
* URLs (e.g. `git://`), as a subset of command arguments
* Special characters (e.g. `+` in diffs).
* Config options (e.g. `branch.<name>.remote`)
Branch and tag names are sometimes set off with double quotes,
sometimes set off with backticks, and sometimes left bare. I tried to
judge when the intention was introducing new terms or conventions
(double quotes), to reference a recently used command argument
(backticks), or to reference the abstract branch/commit (left bare).
Obviously these are not particularly crisp definitions, so my
decisions are fairly arbitrary ;). When a reference had already been
introduced, I changed further double-quoted instances to backticked
instances.
When new backticks increased the length of a line beyond others in
that block, I re-wrapped blocks to 72 columns.

The iconv implementation on many platforms will accept
variants of UTF-8, including "UTF8", "utf-8", and "utf8",
but some do not. We make allowances in our code to treat
them all identically, but we sometimes hand the string from
the user directly to iconv. In this case, the platform iconv
may or may not work.
There are really four levels of platform iconv support for
these synonyms:
1. All synonyms understood (e.g., glibc).
2. Only the official "UTF-8" understood (e.g., Windows).
3. Official "UTF-8" not understood, but some other synonym
understood (it's not known whether such a platform exists).
4. Neither "UTF-8" nor any synonym understood (e.g.,
ancient systems, or ones without utf8 support
installed).
This patch teaches git to fall back to using the official
"UTF-8" spelling when iconv_open fails (and the encoding was
one of the synonym spellings). This makes things more
convenient to users of type 2 systems, as they can now use
any of the synonyms for the log output encoding.
Type 1 systems are not affected, as iconv already works on
the first try.
Type 4 systems are not affected, as both attempts already
fail.
Type 3 systems will not benefit from the feature, but
because we only use "UTF-8" as a fallback, they will not be
regressed (i.e., you can continue to use "utf8" if your
platform supports it). We could try all the various
synonyms, but since such systems are not even known to
exist, it's not worth the effort.
