The http-backend program sets default GIT_COMMITTER_NAME and
GIT_COMMITTER_EMAIL variables based on the REMOTE_USER and
REMOTE_ADDR variables provided by the webserver. However, it
unconditionally overwrites any existing GIT_COMMITTER
variables, which may have been customized by site-specific
code in the webserver (or in a script wrapping http-backend).
Let's leave those variables intact if they already exist,
assuming that any such configuration was intentional. There
is a slight chance of a regression if somebody has set
GIT_COMMITTER_* for the entire webserver, not intending it
to leak through http-backend. We could protect against this
by passing the information in alternate variables. However,
it seems unlikely that anyone will care about that
regression, and there is value in the simplicity of using
the common variable names that are used elsewhere in git.
While we're tweaking the environment-handling in
http-backend, let's switch it to use argv_array to handle
the list of variables. That makes the memory management much
simpler.

Merge-recursive detects renames so that if one side modifies
"foo" and the other side moves it to "bar", the modification
is applied to "bar". However, our rename detection is based
on content analysis, it can be wrong (i.e., two files were
not intended as a rename, but just happen to have the same
or similar content).
This is quite rare if the files actually contain content,
since two unrelated files are unlikely to have exactly the
same content. However, empty files present a problem, in
that there is nothing to analyze. An uninteresting
placeholder file with zero bytes may or may not be related
to a placeholder file with another name.
The result is that adding content to an empty file may cause
confusion if the other side of a merge removed it; your
content may end up in another random placeholder file that
was added.
Let's err on the side of caution and not consider empty
files as renames. This will cause a modify/delete conflict
on the merge, which will let the user sort it out
themselves.

remove_dir_recursively() has a check to avoid removing the directory it
was asked to remove without recursing into it and report success when the
directory is the top level of a working tree of a nested git repository,
to protect such a repository from "clean -f" (without double -f). If a
working tree of a nested git repository is in a subdirectory of a toplevel
project, however, this protection did not apply by mistake; we forgot to
pass the REMOVE_DIR_KEEP_NESTED_GIT down to the recursive removal
codepath.
This requires us to also teach the higher level not to remove the
directory it is asked to remove, when the recursed invocation did not
remove the directory it was asked to remove due to a nested git
repository, as it is not an error to leave the parent directories of such
a nested repository.

When a manual notes merge is committed or aborted, we need to remove the
temporary worktree at .git/NOTES_MERGE_WORKTREE. However, removing the
entire directory is not good if the user ran the 'git notes merge
--commit/--abort' from within that directory. On Windows, the directory
removal would simply fail, while on POSIX systems, users would suddenly
find themselves in an invalid current directory.
Therefore, instead of deleting the entire directory, we delete everything
_within_ the directory, and leave the (empty) directory in place.
This would cause a subsequent notes merge to abort, complaining about a
previous - unfinished - notes merge (due to the presence of
.git/NOTES_MERGE_WORKTREE), so we also need to adjust this check to only
trigger when .git/NOTES_MERGE_WORKTREE is non-empty.
Finally, adjust the t3310 manual notes merge testcases to correctly handle
the existence of an empty .git/NOTES_MERGE_WORKTREE directory.

notes_merge_commit() only needs to list all entries (non-recursively)
under a directory, which can be easily accomplished with
opendir/readdir and would be more lightweight than read_directory().
read_directory() is designed to list paths inside a working
directory. Using it outside of its scope may lead to undesired effects.
Apparently, one of the undesired effects of read_directory() is that it
doesn't deal with being given absolute paths. This creates problems for
notes_merge_commit() when git_path() returns an absolute path, which
happens when the current working directory is in a subdirectory of the
.git directory.

When using word diff, the code sets the word_regex from various
defaults if it was not set already. The problem is that it does this
on the original diff_options, which will also be used in subsequent
diffs.
This means that when the word_regex is not given on the command line,
only the first diff for which a setting for word_regex (either from
attributes or diff.wordRegex) ever takes effect. This value then
propagates to the rest of the diff runs and in particular prevents
further attribute lookups.
Fix the problem of changing diff state once and for all, by working
with a _copy_ of the diff_options.

git's --stat output is intended for humans and since v1.7.9.2~13
(2012-02-01) varies by locale. The tests in this script using "apply
--stat" are meant to check two things:
- how binary file changes are accounted for and printed in
git's diffstat format
- that "git apply" can parse the various forms of binary diff
Split these two kinds of check into separate tests, and use --numstat
instead of --stat in the latter. This way, we lose less test coverage
when git is being run without writing its output in the C locale (for
example because GETTEXT_POISON is enabled) and there are fewer tests
to change if the --stat output needs to be tweaked again.
While at it, use commands separated by && that read and write to
temporary files in place of pipelines so segfaults and other failures
in the upstream of the processing pipeline don't get hidden.

Since v1.7.3-rc0~26^2~9 (revert: report success when using option
--strategy, 2010-07-14), the cherry-pick-many-commits test checks the
format of output written to the terminal during a cherry-pick sequence
in addition to the functionality. There is no reason those have to
be checked in the same test, though, and it has some downsides:
- when progress output is broken, the test result does not convey
whether the functionality was also broken or not
- it is not immediately obvious when reading that these checks are
meant to prevent regressions in details of the output format and
are not just a roundabout way to check functional details like the
number of commits produced
- there is a temptation to include the same kind of output checking
for every new cherry-pick test, which would make future changes
to the output unnecessarily difficult

This is one of the early tests, so it uses a style that by modern
standards can be hard to read. Tweak it to:
- clearly declare what assertion each test is designed to check
- mark tests that create state later tests will depend on with the
word "setup" so people writing or running tests know the others
can be skipped or reordered safely
- put commands that populate a file with expected output inside
the corresponding test stanza, so it is easier to see by eye
where each test begins and ends
- instead of pipelines, use commands that read and write a
temporary file, so bugs causing commands to segfault or produce
the wrong exit status can be caught.
More cosmetic changes:
- put the opening quote starting each test on the same line as the
test_expect_* invocation, and indent the commands in each test
with a single tab
- end the test early if the underlying filesystem cannot
accomodate the filenames we use, instead of marking all tests
with the same TABS_IN_FILENAMES prerequisite.

This test script checks that git's plumbing commands quote filenames
with special characters like space, tab, and double-quote
appropriately in their input and output.
Since commit v1.7.9.2~13 (Use correct grammar in diffstat summary
line, 2012-02-01), the final "1 file changed, 1 insertion(+)" line
from diffstats is translatable, meaning tests that rely on exact "git
apply --stat" output have to be skipped when git is not configured to
produce output in the C locale (for example, when GETTEXT_POISON is
enabled). So:
- Tweak the three "git apply --stat" tests that check "git apply"'s
input parsing to use --numstat instead.
--numstat output is more reliable, does not vary with locale, and
is itself easier to parse. These tests are mainly about how "git
apply" parses its input so this should not result in much loss of
coverage.
- Add a new "apply --stat" test to check the quoting in --stat output
format.
This wins back a little of the test coverage lost with the patch

As the fast-import manual explains:
The value of <path> must be in canonical form. That is it must
not:
. contain an empty directory component (e.g. foo//bar is invalid),
. end with a directory separator (e.g. foo/ is invalid),
. start with a directory separator (e.g. /foo is invalid),
Unfortunately the "ls" command accepts these invalid syntaxes and
responds by declaring that the indicated path is missing. This is too
subtle and causes importers to silently misbehave; better to error out
so the operator knows what's happening.
The C, R, and M commands already error out for such paths.

This test asks for an impossible conversion to the system by
preparing an UTF-8 translation with characters that cannot be
expressed in ISO-8859-1, and then asking the message shown in
ISO-8859-1. Even though the behaviour against such a request is
undefined, it may be interesting to see what the system does, and
the purpose of this test is to see if there are platforms that
exhibit behaviour that we haven't seen.
The original recognized two known modes of behaviour:
- the key used to query the message catalog ("TEST: Old English
Runes"), saying "I cannot do that i18n".
- impossible characters replaced with ASCII "?", saying "I punt".
but they were treated totally differently. The test simply issued
an informational message "Your system punts on this one" for the
first error mode, while it diagnosed the latter as "Your system is
good; you pass!".
It turns out that Mac OS X exhibits a third mode of error behaviour,
to spew out the raw value stored in the message catalog. The test
diagnosed this behaviour as "broken", but it is merely trying to do
its best to respond to an impossible request by saying "I punt" in a
way that is slightly different from the second one.
Update the offending test to make it clear what is (and is not)
being tested, update the code structure so that newly discovered
error mode can easily be added to it later, and reword the message
that comes from a failing case to clarify that it is not the system
that is broken when it fails, but merely that the behaviour is not
something we have seen.
