8b8e862490 ignore unknown color configuration
When parsing the config file, if there is a value that is
syntactically correct but unused, we generally ignore it.
This lets non-core porcelains store arbitrary information in
the config file, and it means that configuration files can
be shared between new and old versions of git (the old
versions might simply ignore certain configuration).

The one exception to this is color configuration; if we
encounter a color.{diff,branch,status}.$slot variable, we
die if it is not one of the recognized slots (presumably as
a safety valve for user misconfiguration). This behavior
has existed since 801235c (diff --color: use
$GIT_DIR/config, 2006-06-24), but hasn't yet caused a
problem. No porcelain has wanted to store extra colors, and
we once a color area (like color.diff) has been introduced,
we've never changed the set of color slots.

However, that changed recently with the addition of
color.diff.func. Now a user with color.diff.func in their
config can no longer freely switch between v1.6.6 and older
versions; the old versions will complain about the existence
of the variable.

This patch loosens the check to match the rest of
git-config; unknown color slots are simply ignored. This
doesn't fix this particular problem, as the older version
(without this patch) is the problem, but it at least
prevents it from happening again in the future.

76fd28283f diff --color-words: bit of clean-up
When we introduced the "word diff" mode, we could have done one of three
things:

 * change fn_out_consume() to "this is called every time a line worth of
   diff becomes ready from the lower-level diff routine.  This function
   knows two sets of helpers (one for line-oriented diff, another for word
   diff), and each set has various functions to be called at certain
   places (e.g. hunk header, context, ...).  The function's role is to
   inspect the incoming line, and dispatch appropriate helpers to produce
   either line- or word- oriented diff output."

 * introduce fn_out_consume_word_diff() that is "this is called every time
   a line worth of diff becomes ready from the lower-level diff routine,
   and here is what we do to prepare word oriented diff using that line."
   without touching fn_out_consume() at all.

 * Do neither of the above, and keep fn_out_consume() to "this is called
   every time a line worth of diff becomes ready from the lower-level diff
   routine, and here is what we do to output line oriented diff using that
   line."  but sprinkle a handful of 'are we in word-diff mode?  if so do
   this totally different thing' at random places.

This patch is to at least abstract the details of "this totally different
thing" out from the main codepath, in order to improve readability.

We can later refactor it by introducing fn_out_consume_word_diff(), taking
the second route above, but that is a separate topic.

a4ca1465ec diff --color-words -U0: fix the location of hunk headers
Colored word diff without context lines firstly printed all the hunk
headers among each other and then printed the diff.

This was due to the code relying on getting at least one context line at
the end of each hunk, where the colored words would be flushed (it is
done that way to be able to ignore rewrapped lines).

Noticed by Markus Heidelberg.

When you use the option --submodule=log you can see the submodule
summaries inlined in the diff, instead of not-quite-helpful SHA-1 pairs.

The format imitates what "git submodule summary" shows.

To do that, <path>/.git/objects/ is added to the alternate object
databases (if that directory exists).

all the necessary support routines have been prepared, call them with a
line of data at a time from the output code and have them check and color
whitespace errors in exactly the same way as they are called from the low
level diff callback routines.

d68fe26f3e diff --whitespace: fix blank lines at end
The earlier logic tried to colour any and all blank lines that were added
beyond the last blank line in the original, but this was very wrong.  If
you added 96 blank lines, a non-blank line, and then 3 blank lines at the
end, only the last 3 lines should trigger the error, not the earlier 96
blank lines.

We need to also make sure that the lines are after the last non-blank line
in the postimage as well before deciding to paint them.

Reuse the adds_blank_at_eof() function to find where the runs of such

The "diff --check" code used to conflate trailing-space whitespace error
class with this, but now we have a proper separate error class, we should
check it under blank-at-eof, not trailing-space.

The whitespace error is not about _having_ blank lines at end, but about
adding _new_ blank lines.  To keep the message consistent with what is
given by "git apply", call whitespace_error_string() to generate it,
instead of using a hardcoded custom message.

90b1994170 diff: Rename QUIET internal option to QUICK
The option "QUIET" primarily meant "find if we have _any_ difference as
quick as possible and report", which means we often do not even have to
look at blobs if we know the trees are different by looking at the higher
level (e.g. "diff-tree A B").  As a side effect, because there is no point
showing one change that we happened to have found first, it also enables
NO_OUTPUT and EXIT_WITH_STATUS options, making the end result look quiet.

Rename the internal option to QUICK to reflect this better; it also makes
grepping the source tree much easier, as there are other kinds of QUIET
option everywhere.

f245194f9a diff: change semantics of "ignore whitespace" options
Traditionally, the --ignore-whitespace* options have merely meant to tell
the diff output routine that some class of differences are not worth
showing in the textual diff output, so that the end user has easier time
to review the remaining (presumably more meaningful) changes.  These
options never affected the outcome of the command, given as the exit
status when the --exit-code option was in effect (either directly or
indirectly).

When you have only whitespace changes, however, you might expect

	git diff -b --exit-code

to report that there is _no_ change with zero exit status.

Change the semantics of --ignore-whitespace* options to mean more than
"omit showing the difference in text".

The exit status, when --exit-code is in effect, is computed by checking if
we found any differences at the path level, while diff frontends feed
filepairs to the diffcore engine.  When "ignore whitespace" options are in
effect, we defer this determination until the very end of diffcore
transformation.  We simply do not know until the textual diff is
generated, which comes very late in the pipeline.

When --quiet is in effect, various diff frontends optimize by breaking out
early from the loop that enumerates the filepairs, when we find the first
path level difference; when --ignore-whitespace* is used the above change
automatically disables this optimization.

691f1a28bf replace direct calls to unlink(2) with unlink_or_warn
This helps to notice when something's going wrong, especially on
systems which lock open files.

I used the following criteria when selecting the code for replacement:
- it was already printing a warning for the unlink failures
- it is in a function which already printing something or is
  called from such a function
- it is in a static function, returning void and the function is only
  called from a builtin main function (cmd_)
- it is in a function which handles emergency exit (signal handlers)
- it is in a function which is obvously cleaning up the lockfiles

a408e0e649 diff: do not color --stat output like patch context
The diffstat used the color.diff.plain slot (context text) for coloring
filenames and the whole summary line. This didn't look nice and the
affected text isn't patch context at all.

cced5fbc24 Allow users to un-configure rename detection
I told people on the kernel mailing list to please use "-M" when sending
me rename patches, so that I can see what they do while reading email
rather than having to apply the patch and then look at the end result.

I also told them that if they want to make it the default, they can just
add

	[diff]
		renames

to their ~/.gitconfig file. And while I was thinking about that, I wanted
to also check whether you can then mark individual projects to _not_ have
that default in the per-repository .git/config file.

And you can't. Currently you cannot have a global "enable renames by
default" and then a local ".. but not for _this_ project". Why? Because if
somebody writes

	[diff]
		renames = no

we simply ignore it, rather than resetting "diff_detect_rename_default"
back to zero.

Fixed thusly.
