v1.7.3-rc0~75^2 (Teach fast-import to import subtrees named by tree id,
2010-06-30) has a shortcoming - it doesn't allow the root to be set.
Extend this behaviour by allowing the root to be referenced as the
empty path, "".
For a command (like filter-branch --subdirectory-filter) that wants
to commit a lot of trees that already exist in the object db, writing
undeltified objects as loose files only to repack them later can
involve a significant amount of overhead.
(23% slow-down observed on Linux 2.6.35, worse on Mac OS X 10.6)
Fortunately we have fast-import (which is one of the only git commands
that will write to a pack directly) but there is not an advertised way
to tell fast-import to commit a given tree without unpacking it.
This patch changes that, by allowing
M 040000 <tree id> ""
as a filemodify line in a commit to reset to a particular tree without
any need to parse it. For example,
Group entries related to parameter substitutions together and avoid
using the word "regexp" to refer to the ${parameter/pattern/string}
substitution (banned), as the pattern there is a shell glob and not
a regular expression.
Therefore for the case when we don't have either action, or filename,
or parent hash [base] in path_info-based URL, i.e. for
http://server/gitweb/project/<object-id>
link, instead of using 'shortlog' view we allow dispatch() subroutine
to detect type of object and use appropriate action (in most case it
would be either 'commit' action, or 'tag', or 'tree' for top
directory).

There are buggy implementations of S_ISxxx(m) macros on some platforms
(e.g. NetBSD). The issue is that NetBSD doesn't take care to wrap its
macro arguments in parentheses, so on Linux and sane systems we have
S_ISREG(m) defined as something like:
(((m) & S_IFMT) == S_IFREG)
But on NetBSD:
((m & _S_IFMT) == _S_IFREG)
Since a caller in builtin/diff.c called our macro as `S_IFREG | 0644'
this bug introduced a logic error on NetBSD, since the precedence of
bit-wise & is higher than | in C.

xdiff: cast arguments for ctype functions to unsigned char
The ctype functions isspace(), isalnum(), et al take an integer
argument representing an unsigned character, or -1 for EOF. On
platforms with a signed char, it is unsafe to pass a char to them
without casting it to unsigned char first.
Most of git is already shielded against this by the ctype
implementation in git-compat-util.h, but xdiff, which uses libc
ctype.h, ought to be fixed.

setup: make sure git dir path is in a permanent buffer
If setup_git_env() is run before the usual repository discovery
sequence and .git is a file with the text
gitdir: <path>
(with <path> any string) then the in-core git_dir variable is set to
the result of converting <path> to an absolute path using
make_absolute_path().
Unfortunately make_absolute_path() returns its result in a static
buffer that is overwritten by later calls. Such a call could cause
later accesses to git_dir (from git_pathdup(), for example) to read
the wrong path, leaving git very confused.
It is not obvious whether any existing code in git will trigger the
problem, but in any case, it is worth a few dozen bytes to copy the
return value from make_absolute_path() for some added peace of mind.

Cloning via relative path fails for a project residing immediately under
the root directory of a DOS drive. For instance, for project c:/foo,
issuing "cd c:/" followed by "git clone foo bar" fails with error
"Unable to find remote helper for 'c'". The problem is caused by
make_nonrelative_path() incorrectly returning c://foo rather than
c:/foo for input "foo". The bogus path c://foo is misinterpreted by
transport_get() as a URL with unrecognized protocol "c", hence the
missing remote helper error. Fix make_nonrelative_path() to return
c:/foo rather than c://foo (and /foo rather than //foo on Unix).

Side-step MSYS-specific path "corruption" leading to t5560 failure.
Upon program invocation, MSYS converts environment variables containing
path-like values from Unix-style to DOS-style under the assumption that
the program being invoked understands only DOS-style pathnames. For
instance, the Unix-style path /msysgit is translated to c:/msysgit. For
test t5560, the path being requested from git-http-backend is specified
via environment variable PATH_INFO as a URL path of the form
/repo.git/foobar, which git-http-backend combines with GIT_PROJECT_ROOT
to determine the actual physical path within the repository. This is a
case where MSYS's conversion of the path-like value of PATH_INFO causes
harm, for two reasons. First, the resulting converted path, when joined
with GIT_PROJECT_ROOT is bogus (for instance,
"C:/msysgit/git/t/trash-zzz/C:/msysgit/repo.git/HEAD"). Second, the
converted PATH_INFO path is rejected by git-http-backend as an 'alias'
due to validation failure on the part of daemon_avoid_alias().
Unfortunately, the standard work-around of doubling the leading slash
(i.e. //repo.git/foobar) to suppress MSYS path conversion works only for
command-line arguments, but not for environment variables.
Consequently, side step the problem by instead passing git-http-backend
an already-constructed full path rather than components GIT_PROJECT_ROOT
and PATH_INFO.

Side-step sed line-ending "corruption" leading to t6038 failure.
By default, MSYS sed throws away CR from CRLF line-endings. Tests
t6038.5 and t6038.6 employ sed to normalize conflict output of git-merge
for validation purposes. These tests expect CRLF line-endings to be
present in the normalized output of git-merge, and thus fail when sed
undesirably removes CR. Fix by employing sed's -b/--binary switch to

These two tests fail on msysGit because /dev/null is an alias for nul on
Windows and when reading the value back from git config the alias does
not match the real filename. Also the HOME environment variable has a
