wildcard used to attempt to update a symbolic ref that match the
wildcard on the receiving end, which made little sense (the real ref
that is pointed at by the symbolic ref would be updated anyway).
Symbolic refs no longer are affected by such a fetch.
* jc/fetch-ignore-symref:

Rely on the upstream filetype.vim instead of duplicating its rules in
git's instructions for syntax highlighting support on pre-7.2 vim
versions.
The result is a shorter contrib/vim/README. More importantly, it lets
us punt on maintenance of the autocmd rules.
So now when we fix the upstream gitsendemail rule in light of commit
eed6ca7, new git users stuck on old vim reading contrib/vim/README can
automagically get the fix without any further changes needed to git.
Once the world has moved on to vim 7.2+ completely, we can get rid of
these instructions, but for now if they are this simple it's
effortless to keep them.

The test fails for me on NetBSD 6.0.1 and reports:
ok 1 - ref name '' is invalid
ok 2 - ref name '/' is invalid
ok 3 - ref name '/' is invalid with options --allow-onelevel
ok 4 - ref name '/' is invalid with options --normalize
error: bug in the test script: not 2 or 3 parameters to test-expect-success
The alleged bug is in this line:
invalid_ref NOT_MINGW '/' '--allow-onelevel --normalize'
invalid_ref() constructs a test case description using its last argument,
but the shell seems to split it up into two pieces if it contains a
space. Minimal test case:
# on NetBSD with /bin/sh
$ a() { echo $#-$1-$2; }
$ t="x"; a "${t:+$t}"
1-x-
$ t="x y"; a "${t:+$t}"
2-x-y
$ t="x y"; a "${t:+x y}"
1-x y-
# and with bash
$ t="x y"; a "${t:+$t}"
1-x y-
$ t="x y"; a "${t:+x y}"
1-x y-
This may be a bug in the shell, but here's a simple workaround: Construct
the description string first and store it in a variable, and then use
that to call test_expect_success().

When enumerating paths that are ignored, paths the index knows
about are not included in the result. The "index knows about"
check is done by consulting the name hash, not the actual
contents of the index:
- When core.ignorecase is false, directory names are not in the
name hash, and ignored ones are shown as ignored (directories
can never be tracked anyway).
- When core.ignorecase is true, however, the name hash keeps
track of the names of directories, in order to detect
additions of the paths under different cases. This causes
ignored directories to be mistakenly excluded when
enumerating ignored paths.
Stop excluding directories that are in the name hash when
looking for ignored files in dir_add_name(); the names that are
actually in the index are excluded much earlier in the callchain
in treat_file(), so this fix will not make them mistakenly
identified as ignored.

Only add a symlink to the repository if both the filesystem and

containing a symlink, created like this with InfoZIP zip 3.0:
$ echo sample text >textfile
$ ln -s textfile symlink
$ zip -y infozip-symlinks.zip textfile symlink
If we can extract it successfully, we add a symlink to the test

step. Users can see the skipped test and perhaps run it again
with a different unzip version.

We record the uncompressed and compressed sizes and the CRC of streamed
files as zero in the local header of the file. The actual values are
recorded in an extra data descriptor after the file content, and in the
usual ZIP directory entry at the end of the archive.
While we know the compressed size and the CRC only after we processed
the contents, we actually know the uncompressed size right from the
start. And for files that we store uncompressed we also already know
their final size.
Do it like InfoZIP's zip and recored the known values, even though they
can be reconstructed using the ZIP directory and the data descriptors
alone. InfoZIP's unzip worked fine before, but NetBSD's version
actually depends on these fields.
The uncompressed size is already set by sha1_object_info(). We just
need to initialize the compressed size to zero or the uncompressed size
depending on the compression method (0 means storing). The CRC was
propertly initialized already.

When a sub-command dies due to a signal, we encode the
signal number into the numeric exit status as "signal -
128". This is easy to identify (versus a regular positive
error code), and when cast to an unsigned integer (e.g., by
feeding it to exit), matches what a POSIX shell would return
when reporting a signal death in $? or through its own exit
code.
So we have a negative value inside the code, but once it
passes across an exit() barrier, it looks positive (and any
code we receive from a sub-shell will have the positive
form). E.g., death by SIGPIPE (signal 13) will look like
-115 to us in inside git, but will end up as 141 when we
call exit() with it. And a program killed by SIGPIPE but run
via the shell will come to us with an exit code of 141.
Unfortunately, this means that when the "use_shell" option
is set, we need to be on the lookout for _both_ forms. We
might or might not have actually invoked the shell (because
we optimize out some useless shell calls). If we didn't invoke
the shell, we will will see the sub-process's signal death
directly, and run-command converts it into a negative value.
But if we did invoke the shell, we will see the shell's
128+signal exit status. To be thorough, we would need to
check both, or cast the value to an unsigned char (after
checking that it is not -1, which is a magic error value).
Fortunately, most callsites do not care at all whether the
exit was from a code or from a signal; they merely check for
a non-zero status, and sometimes propagate the error via
exit(). But for the callers that do care, we can make life
slightly easier by just using the consistent positive form.
This actually fixes two minor bugs:
1. In launch_editor, we check whether the editor died from
SIGINT or SIGQUIT. But we checked only the negative
form, meaning that we would fail to notice a signal
death exit code which was propagated through the shell.
2. In handle_alias, we assume that a negative return value
from run_command means that errno tells us something
interesting (like a fork failure, or ENOENT).
Otherwise, we simply propagate the exit code. Negative
signal death codes confuse us, and we print a useless
"unable to run alias 'foo': Success" message. By
encoding signal deaths using the positive form, the
existing code just propagates it as it would a normal
non-zero exit code.
The downside is that callers of run_command can no longer
differentiate between a signal received directly by the
sub-process, and one propagated. However, no caller
currently cares, and since we already optimize out some
calls to the shell under the hood, that distinction is not
something that should be relied upon by callers.
Fix the same logic in t/test-terminal.perl for consistency [jc:
raised by Jonathan in the discussion].

The name field of a tar header has a size of 100 characters. This limit
was extended long ago in a backward compatible way by providing the
additional prefix field, which can hold 155 additional characters. The
actual path is constructed at extraction time by concatenating the prefix
field, a slash and the name field.
get_path_prefix() is used to determine which slash in the path is used as
the cutting point and thus which part of it is placed into the field
prefix and which into the field name. It tries to cram as much into the
prefix field as possible. (And only if we can't fit a path into the
provided 255 characters we use a pax extended header to store it.)
If a path is longer than 100 but shorter than 156 characters and ends
with a slash (i.e. is for a directory) then get_path_prefix() puts the
whole path in the prefix field and leaves the name field empty. GNU tar
reconstructs the path without complaint, but the tar included with
NetBSD 6 does not: It reports the header to be invalid.
For compatibility with this version of tar, make sure to never leave the
name field empty. In order to do that, trim the trailing slash from the
part considered as possible prefix, if it exists -- that way the last
path component (or more, but not less) will end up in the name field.

Since b57fb80a7d (init, clone: support --separate-git-dir for .git file)
git clone supports the --separate-git-dir option to create the git dir
outside the work tree. But when that option is used, the git dir won't be
deleted in case the clone fails like it would be without this option. This
makes clone lose its atomicity as in case of a failure a partly set up git
dir is left behind. A real world example where this leads to problems is
when "git submodule update" fails to clone a submodule and later calls to
"git submodule update" stumble over the partially set up git dir and try
to revive the submodule from there, which then fails with a not very user
friendly error message.
Fix that by updating the junk_git_dir variable (used to remember if and
what git dir should be removed in case of failure) to the new value given
with the --seperate-git-dir option. Also add a test for this to t5600 (and
while at it fix the former last test to not cd into a directory to test
for its existence but use "test -d" instead).
