It seems that "git bisect good" and "git bisect skip" have never
properly checked arguments that have been passed to them. As soon
as one of them can be parsed as a SHA1, no error or warning would
be given.
This is because 'git rev-parse --revs-only --no-flags "$@"' always
"exit 0" and outputs all the SHA1 it can found from parsing "$@".
This patch fix this by using, for each "bisect good" argument, the
same logic as for the "bisect bad" argument.
While at it, this patch teaches "bisect bad" to give a meaningfull
error message when it is passed more than one argument.
Note that if "git bisect good" or "git bisect skip" is given some
proper revs and then something that is not a proper rev, then the
first proper revs will still have been marked as "good" or "skip".

Users are not often aware of the fact that "git bisect -h" can give

That's why this patch adds a "git bisect help" subcommand that just

git-fetch: fix status output when not storing tracking ref
There was code in update_local_ref for handling this case,

FETCH_HEAD meant a blank peer_ref name, but we actually have
a NULL peer_ref in this case, so we never even made it to
the update_local_ref function.
On top of that, the display formatting was different from
all of the other cases, probably owing to the fact that
nobody had ever actually seen the output.
This patch harmonizes the output with the other cases and

git-svn: fix following renamed paths when tracking a single path
When using git-svn to follow only a single (empty) path per
svn-remote (i.e. not using --stdlayout), following the history

test suite: remove useless TERM cruft in "t7005-editor.sh"

otherwise "test_done" would have printed the test result with a bad TERM

But since commit c2116a1 (test-lib: fix TERM to dumb for test

Fix "git apply" to correctly enforce "match at the beginning"
An earlier commit 4be6096 (apply --unidiff-zero: loosen sanity checks for

computed incorrectly. If a hunk inserts at the beginning, old position
recorded at the hunk is line 0, and if a hunk changes at the beginning, it
is line 1. The new test added to t4104 exposes that the old code did not
insist on matching at the beginning for a patch to add a line to an empty
file.
An even older 65aadb9 (apply: force matching at the beginning.,
2006-05-24) was equally wrong in that it tried to take hints from the

gitk: Fix changing colors through Edit->Preferences
With tcl/tk8.5 the lset command seems to behave differently. When
changing the background color through Edit->Preferences, the changes
are applied, but new dialogs, such as View->New view... barf with
Error: unknown color name "{#ffffff}"
Additionally when closing gitk, and starting it up again, a bad value
has been saved to ~/.gitk, preventing gitk from running properly; it
fails with
Error in startup script: unknown color name "{#ffffff}"
...
This commit fixes the problem by changing the color dialogs to pass
the empty string {} as the list index to choosecolor. This causes
the lset and lindex commands used by choosecolor to use and set the
whole variable (bgcolor, fgcolor or selectbgcolor) rather than
treating them as a 1-element list. Tested with tcl/tk8.4 and 8.5.

filter-branch: Fix renaming a directory in the tree-filter

'ls-files | xargs rm' pipeline by 'git clean'. 'git clean' however does
not recurse and remove directories by default.
Now, consider a tree-filter that renames a directory.
1. For the first commit everything works as expected
2. Then filter-branch checks out the files for the next commit. This
leaves the new directory behind because there is no real "branch
switching" involved that would notice that the directory can be
removed.
3. Then filter-branch invokes 'git clean' to remove exactly those
left-overs. But here it does not remove the directory.
4. The next tree-filter does not work as expected because there already
exists a directory with the new name.
Just add -d to 'git clean', so that empty directories are removed.

diff-index: careful when inspecting work tree items
Earlier, if you changed a staged path into a directory in the work tree,
we happily ran lstat(2) on it and found that it exists, and declared that
the user changed it to a gitlink.
This is wrong for two reasons:
(1) It may be a directory, but it may not be a submodule, and in the
latter case, the change we need to report is "the blob at the path
has disappeared". We need to check with resolve_gitlink_ref() to be
consistent with what "git add" and "git update-index --add" does.
(2) lstat(2) may have succeeded only because a leading component of the
path was turned into a symbolic link that points at something that
exists in the work tree. In such a case, the path itself does not
exist anymore, as far as the index is concerned.
This fixes these breakages in diff-index that the previous patch has
exposed.
Add corner case tests for diff-index and diff-files
diff-index and diff-files can get confused in corner cases when an indexed
blob turns into something else in the work tree. This patch adds tests to
expose such breakages.
The test is classified under t2XXX series instead of t4XXX series, because
the ultimate objective is to fix "add -u" (and "commit -a" that shares the
same issue).
Allow git-cvsserver database table name prefix to be specified.
Adds a gitcvs.dbtablenameprefix config variable, the contents of which

any non-alphabetic characters are replaced with underscores.
A typo found in contrib/completion/git-completion.bash is also fixed.

gitweb: fallback to system-wide config file if default config does not exist
From a distribution point of view, configuration files for applications
should reside in /etc/. On the other hand it's convenient for multiple
instances of gitweb (e.g. virtual web servers on a single machine) to have
a per-instance configuration file, just as gitweb currently supports
through the file gitweb_config.perl next to the cgi.
To support both at runtime, this commit introduces GITWEB_CONFIG_SYSTEM as
a system-wide configuration file which will be used as a fallback if the
config file sprecified throug GITWEB_CONFIG does not exist.

add--interactive: ignore mode change in 'p'atch command
When a path is examined in the patch subcommand, any mode changes in
the file are given to use in the diff header by git-diff. If no hunks

path. But if _any_ hunks are staged, we use the header, and the mode
is changed together with the contents.
Since the 'p'atch command should just be dealing with hunks that are

entirely. We do squirrel away the mode, though, since the next patch
