Instead of having the client advertise a particular version
number in the git protocol, we have managed extensions and
backwards compatibility by having clients and servers
advertise capabilities that they support. This is far more
robust than having each side consult a table of
known versions, and provides sufficient information for the
protocol interaction to complete.
However, it does not allow servers to keep statistics on
which client versions are being used. This information is
not necessary to complete the network request (the
capabilities provide enough information for that), but it
may be helpful to conduct a general survey of client
versions in use.
We already send the client version in the user-agent header
for http requests; adding it here allows us to gather
similar statistics for non-http requests.

In most cases, plural-forms are unnecessary for Chinese. For example,
"apple" and "apples" are the same in Chinese, they are both translated
as "苹果". While there are exceptions, e.g., the plural form of "he",
"she" and "it" is "they" in English. In Chinese, "他(he)", "她(she)",
and "它(it)" have plural forms too, they are "他们", "她们", and "它们".
But what makes 'nplurals=1' hard to work right for Chinese is:

submodules: print "registered for path" message only once
Since 2cd9de3e (submodule add: always initialize .git/config entry) the
message "Submodule '\$name' (\$url) registered for path '\$sm_path'" is
printed every time cmd_init() is called, e.g. each time "git submodule
update" is used with the --init option.
This was not intended and leads to bogus output which can confuse users
and build systems. Apart from that the $url variable was not set after the
first run which did the actual initialization and only "()" was printed
in subsequent runs where "($url)" was meant to inform the user about the
upstream repo.
Fix that by moving the say command in question into the if block where the
url is initialized, restoring the behavior that was in place before the 2cd9de3e commit. While at it also remove the comment which still describes
the logic used before 2cd9de3e and add a comment about how things work now.

Let's start with Git::SVN::Prompt. For simplicity, we install this as

fmt-merge-message: add empty line between tag and signature verification
When adding the information from a tag, put an empty line between the
message of the tag and the commented-out signature verification
information.
At least for the kernel workflow, I often end up re-formatting the message
that people send me in the tag data. In that situation, putting the tag
message and the tag signature verification back-to-back then means that
normal editor "reflow parapgraph" command will get confused and think that
the signature is a continuation of the last message paragraph.
So I always end up having to first add an empty line, and then go back and
reflow the last paragraph. Let's just do it in git directly.
The extra vertical space also makes the verification visually stand out
more from the user-supplied message, so it looks a bit more readable to me
too, but that may be just an odd personal preference.

format-patch: use GIT_COMMITTER_EMAIL in message ids
Before commit 43ae9f4, we generated the tail of a message id
by calling git_committer_info and parsing the email out of
the result. 43ae9f4 changed to use ident_default_email
directly, so we didn't have to bother with parsing. As a
side effect, it meant we no longer used GIT_COMMITTER_EMAIL
at all.
In general, this is probably reasonable behavior. Either the
default email is sane on your system, or you are using
user.email to provide something sane. The exception is if
you rely on GIT_COMMITTER_EMAIL being set all the time to
override the bogus generated email.
This is unlikely to match anybody's real-life setup, but we
do use it in the test environment. And furthermore, it's
what we have always done, and the change in 43ae9f4 was
about cleaning up, not fixing any bug; we should be
conservative and keep the behavior identical.

Most callers want to see all of "$name <$email> $date", but
a few want only limited parts, omitting the date, or even
the name. We already have IDENT_NO_DATE to handle the date
part, but there's not a good option for getting just the
email. Callers have to done one of:
1. Call ident_default_email; this does not respect
environment variables, nor does it promise to trim
whitespace or other crud from the result.
2. Call git_{committer,author}_info; this returns the name
and email, leaving the caller to parse out the wanted
bits.
This patch adds IDENT_NO_NAME; it stops short of adding
IDENT_NO_EMAIL, as no callers want it (nor are likely to),
and it complicates the error handling of the function.
When no name is requested, the angle brackets (<>) around
the email address are also omitted.

As a short-hand, we extract this flag into the local
variable "name_addr_only". It's more accurate to simply
negate this and refer to it as "want_date", which will be
less confusing when we add more NO_* flags.

call to ident_default_date() only when we are actually going
to use it, not when we have NO_DATE set, or when we get a
date from the environment.

Avoid sorting if references are added to ref_cache in order
The old code allowed many references to be efficiently added to a
single directory, because it just appended the references to the
containing directory unsorted without doing any searching (and
therefore without requiring any intermediate sorting). But the old
code was inefficient when a large number of subdirectories were added
to a directory, because the directory always had to be searched to see
if the new subdirectory already existed, and this search required the
directory to be sorted first. The same was repeated for every new
subdirectory, so the time scaled like O(N^2), where N is the number of
subdirectories within a single directory.
In practice, references are often added to the ref_cache in
lexicographic order, for example when reading the packed-refs file.
So build some intelligence into add_entry_to_dir() to optimize for the
case of references and/or subdirectories being added in lexicographic
order: if the existing entries were already sorted, and the new entry
comes after the last existing entry, then adjust ref_dir::sorted to
reflect the fact that the ref_dir is still sorted.
Thanks to Peff for pointing out the performance regression that
inspired this change.

The search_ref_dir() function is about looking up an existing ref_entry in
a sorted array of ref_entry stored in dir->entries, but it still allocates
a new ref_entry and frees it before returning. This is only because the
call to bsearch(3) was coded in a suboptimal way. Unlike the comparison
function given to qsort(3), the first parameter to its comparison function
does not need to point at an object that is shaped like an element in the
array.
Introduce a new comparison function that takes a counted string as the key
and an element in an array of ref_entry and give it to bsearch(), so that
we do not have to allocate a new ref_entry that we will never return to
the caller anyway.
