commit: allow suppression of implicit identity advice
We now nag the user with a giant warning when their identity
was pulled from the username, hostname, and gecos
information, in case it is not correct. Most users will
suppress this by simply setting up their information
correctly.
However, there may be some users who consciously want to use
that information, because having the value change from host
to host contains useful information. These users can now set
advice.implicitidentity to false to suppress the message.

commit: show interesting ident information in summary
There are a few cases of user identity information that we consider
interesting:
(1) When the author and committer identities do not match.
(2) When the committer identity was picked automatically from the
username, hostname and GECOS information.
In these cases, we already show the information in the commit
message template. However, users do not always see that template
because they might use "-m" or "-F". With this patch, we show these
interesting cases after the commit, along with the subject and
change summary. The new output looks like:
$ git config --global --unset user.name
$ git config --global --unset user.email
$ git commit -m foo
[master 7c2a927] foo
Committer: Jeff King <peff@c-71-185-130-222.hsd1.va.comcast.net>
Your name and email address were configured automatically based
on your username and hostname. Please check that they are accurate.
You can suppress this message by setting them explicitly:
git config --global user.name Your Name
git config --global user.email you@example.com
If the identity used for this commit is wrong, you can fix it with:
git commit --amend --author='Your Name <you@example.com>'
1 files changed, 1 insertions(+), 0 deletions(-)

The only way to safely quote arbitrary text in a pretty-print user
format is to replace instances of "%" with "%x25". This is slightly
unreadable, and many users would expect "%%" to produce a single
"%", as that is what printf format specifiers do.
This patch converts "%%" to "%" for all users of strbuf_expand():
(1) git-daemon interpolated paths
(2) pretty-print user formats
(3) merge driver command lines
Case (1) was already doing the conversion itself outside of
strbuf_expand(). Case (2) is the intended beneficiary of this patch.
Case (3) users probably won't notice, but as this is user-facing
behavior, consistently providing the quoting mechanism makes sense.

rebase -i: Retain user-edited commit messages after squash/fixup conflicts
When a squash/fixup fails due to a conflict, the user is required to
edit the commit message. Previously, if further squash/fixup commands
followed the conflicting squash/fixup, this user-edited message was
discarded and a new automatically-generated commit message was
suggested.
Change the handling of conflicts within squash/fixup command series:
Whenever the user is required to intervene, consider the resulting
commit to be a new basis for the following squash/fixups and use its
commit message in later suggested combined commit messages.

Even when running without the -F (--fixed-strings) option, we checked the
pattern and used fixmatch() codepath when it does not contain any regex
magic. Finding fixed strings with strstr() surely must be faster than
running the regular expression crud.
Not so. It turns out that on some libc implementations, using the
regcomp()/regexec() pair is a lot faster than running strstr() and
strcasestr() the fixmatch() codepath uses. Drop the optimization and use
the fixmatch() codepath only when the user explicitly asked for it with
the -F option.

Be more user-friendly when refusing to do something because of conflict.
Various commands refuse to run in the presence of conflicts (commit,
merge, pull, cherry-pick/revert). They all used to provide rough, and
inconsistant error messages.
A new variable advice.resolveconflict is introduced, and allows more
verbose messages, pointing the user to the appropriate solution.
For commit, the error message used to look like this:
The "need merge" line is given by refresh_cache. We add the IN_PORCELAIN
option to make the output more consistant with the other porcelain
commands, and catch the error in return, to stop with a clean error
message. The next lines were displayed by a call to cache_tree_update(),
which is not reached anymore if we noticed the conflict.
The new output looks like:
U foo.txt
fatal: 'commit' is not possible because you have unmerged files.
Please, fix them up in the work tree, and then use 'git add/rm <file>' as
appropriate to mark resolution and make a commit, or use 'git commit -a'.
Pull is slightly modified to abort immediately if $GIT_DIR/MERGE_HEAD
exists instead of waiting for merge to complain.
The behavior of merge and the test-case are slightly modified to reflect
the usual flow: start with conflicts, fix them, and afterwards get rid of
MERGE_HEAD, with different error messages at each stage.

grep: optimize built-in grep by skipping lines that do not hit
The internal "grep" engine we use checks for hits line-by-line, instead of
letting the underlying regexec()/fixmatch() routines scan for the first
match from the rest of the buffer. This was a major source of overhead
compared to the external grep.
Introduce a "look-ahead" mechanism to find the next line that would
potentially match by using regexec()/fixmatch() in the remainder of the
text to skip unmatching lines, and use it when the query criteria is
simple enough (i.e. punt for an advanced grep boolean expression like
"lines that have both X and Y but not Z" for now) and we are not running
under "-v" (aka "--invert-match") option.
Note that "-L" (aka "--files-without-match") is not a reason to disable
this optimization. Under the option, we are interested if the file has
any hit at all, and that is what we determine reliably with or without the
optimization.
The -L (--files-without-match) option is supposed to show paths that
produced no matches. When running the internal grep on work tree files,
however, we had an optimization to just return on zero-sized files,
without doing anything.
This optimization doesn't matter too much in practice (a tracked empty
file must be rare, or there is something wrong with your project); to
produce results consistent with GNU grep, we should stop the optimization
and show empty files as not having the given pattern.
push: spell 'Note about fast-forwards' section name correctly in error message.

After you find out an earlier resolution you told rerere to use was a

be used to tell git to forget a recorded resolution, so that you can redo
the merge from scratch.
rerere: refactor rerere logic to make it independent from I/O
This splits the handle_file() function into in-core part and I/O
parts of the logic to create the preimage, so that we can compute
the conflict identifier without having to use temporary files.
Earlier, I thought the output from handle_file() should also be
refactored, but it is always about writing preimage (or thisimage)
that is used for later three-way merge, so it is saner to keep it
to always write to FILE *.

start_command: report child process setup errors to the parent's stderr
When the child process's environment is set up in start_command(), error
messages were written to wherever the parent redirected the child's stderr
channel. However, even if the parent redirected the child's stderr, errors
during this setup process, including the exec itself, are usually an
indication of a problem in the parent's environment. Therefore, the error
messages should go to the parent's stderr.
Redirection of the child's error messages is usually only used to redirect
hook error messages during client-server exchanges. In these cases, hook
setup errors could be regarded as information leak.
This patch makes a copy of stderr if necessary and uses a special
die routine that is used for all die() calls in the child that sends the
errors messages to the parent's stderr.
The trace call that reported a failed execvp is removed (because it writes
to stderr) and replaced by die_errno() with special treatment of ENOENT.
The improvement in the error message can be seen with this sequence:
mkdir .git/hooks/pre-commit
git commit
Previously, the error message was
error: cannot run .git/hooks/pre-commit: No such file or directory

When we use it, we should say we are explicitly given email by the user.
ident.c: check explicit identity for name and email separately
bb1ae3f (commit: Show committer if automatic, 2008-05-04) added a logic to
check both name and email were given explicitly by the end user, but it
assumed that fmt_ident() is never called before git_default_user_config()
is called, which was fragile. The former calls setup_ident() and fills
the "default" name and email, so the check in the config parser would have
mistakenly said both are given even if only user.name was provided.
Make the logic more robust by keeping track of name and email separately.
