1. check for an unambiguous 'dst' on the remote; if it
exists, then push to that ref
2. otherwise, check if 'dst' begins with 'refs/'; if it
does, create a new ref
3. otherwise, complain because we don't know where in the
refs hierarchy to put 'dst'
However, in some cases, we can guess about the ref type of
'dst' based on the ref type of 'src'. Specifically, before
complaining we now check:
2.5. if 'src' resolves to a ref starting with refs/heads
or refs/tags, then prepend that to 'dst'
So now this creates a new branch on the remote, whereas it
previously failed with an error message:
git push master:newbranch
Note that, by design, we limit this DWIM behavior only to
source refs which resolve exactly (including symrefs which
resolve to existing refs). We still complain on a partial
destination refspec if the source is a raw sha1, or a ref
expression such as 'master~10'.

gitweb: Fix 'history' view for deleted files with history
When asked for history of a file which is not present in given branch
("HEAD", i.e. current branch, or given by transient $hash_hase ('hb')
parameter), but is present deeper in the history (meaning that "git
rev-list --full-history $hash_base -- $file_name" is not empty), and
there is no $hash ('h') parameter set for a file, gitweb would spew
multiple of "Use of uninitialized value" warnings, and some links
would be missing. This commit fixes this bug.
This bug occurs in the rare cases when "git log -- <path>" is empty
and "git log --full-history -- <path>" is not, or to be more exact in
the cases when full-history starts later than given branch. It can
happen if you are using handcrafted gitwb URL, or if you follow
generic 'history' link or bookmark for a file which got deleted.
Gitweb tried to get file type ('tree', or 'blob', or even 'commit')
from the commit we start searching from (where the file was not
present), and not among found commits. This was the cause of "Use of
uninitialized value" warnings.
This commit also add tests for such situation to t9500 test.
While we are it, return HTTP error if there is _no_ history; it means
that file or directory was not found (for given branch). Also error

POSIX allows echo without flag to interpret specials such as \n, and we
tried to make things portable by using printf instead where it matters.
Recently added code to "git am" had unprotected "echo", which was caught
by t4014 and Rémi Vanicat.
Traditionally git-rebase was implemented in terms of "format-patch" piped
to "am -3", to strike balance between speed (because it avoids a rather
expensive read-tree/merge-recursive machinery most of the time) and
flexibility (the magic "-3" allows it to fall back to 3-way merge as
necessary). However, this combination has one flaw when dealing with a
nonstandard commit log message format that has more than one lines in the
first paragraph.
This teaches "git am --rebasing" to take advantage of the fact that the
mbox message "git rebase" prepares for it records the original commit
object name, to get the log message from the original commit object
instead.

git-bisect: make "start", "good" and "skip" succeed or fail atomically
Before this patch, when "git bisect start", "git bisect good" or
"git bisect skip" were called with many revisions, they could fail
after having already marked some revisions as "good", "bad" or
"skip".
This could be especilally bad for "git bisect start" because as
the file ".git/BISECT_NAMES" would not have been written, there
would have been no attempt to clear the marked revisions on a
"git bisect reset". That's because if there is no
".git/BISECT_NAMES" file, nothing is done to clean things up, as
the bisect session is not supposed to have started.

git-submodule - possibly use branch name to describe a module
This changes the search logic for describing a submodule from:
- annotated tag
- any tag
- tag on a subsequent commit
- commit id
to
- annotated tag
- any tag
- tag on a subsequent commit
- local or remote branch
- commit id
The change is describing with respect to a branch before falling
back to the commit id. By itself, git-submodule will maintain submodules
as headless checkouts without ever making a local branch. In
general, such heads can always be described relative to the remote branch
regardless of existence of tags, and so provides a better fallback
summary than just the commit id.
This requires inserting an extra describe step as --contains is
incompatible with --all, but the latter can be used with --always
to fall back to a commit ID. Also, --contains implies --tags, so the
latter is not needed.

While at it, this patch teaches "bisect bad" to give a meaningfull
error message when it is passed more than one argument.

But, this field was only loosely tested by git-mktag. Provide some thorough
testing for this field and also ensure that the tag header is separated
from the tag body by an empty line to reduce the convenience of creating
a flawed tag.

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.
