eb443e3b39 git-prompt: preserve value of $? inside shell prompt
If you have a prompt which displays the command exit status,
__git_ps1 without this change corrupts it, although it has
the correct value in the parent shell:

	~/src/git (master) 0 $ set | grep ^PS1
	PS1='\w$(__git_ps1) $? \$ '
	~/src/git (master) 0 $ false
	~/src/git (master) 0 $ echo $?
	1
	~/src/git (master) 0 $

There is a slightly ugly workaround:

	~/src/git (master) 0 $ set | grep ^PS1
	PS1='\w$(x=$?; __git_ps1; exit $x) $? \$ '
	~/src/git (master) 0 $ false
	~/src/git (master) 1 $

This change makes the workaround unnecessary.

3af74cfb15 pre-push.sample: remove unnecessary and misleading IFS=' '
The sample hook explicitly sets IFS to SP and nothing else so that
the "read" used in the per-ref while loop that iterates over
"<localref> SP <localsha1> SP <remoteref> SP <remotesha>" records,
where we know refs and sha1s will not have SPs, would split them
correctly.

While this is not wrong per-se, it is not necessary; because we know
these fields do not contain HT or LF, either, we can simply leave
IFS the default.

This will also prevent those who cut and paste from this sample from
getting bitten when they write things in the per-ref loop that need
splitting with the default $IFS (e.g. use $(git rev-list ...) to
produce one-record-per-line output).

b195aa00c1 git-compat-util: suppress unavoidable Apple-specific deprecation warnings
With the release of Mac OS X 10.7 in July 2011, Apple deprecated all
openssl.h functionality due to OpenSSL ABI (application binary
interface) instability, resulting in an explosion of compilation
warnings about deprecated SSL, SHA1, and X509 functions (among others).

61067954ce (cache.h: eliminate SHA-1 deprecation warnings on Mac OS X;
2013-05-19) and be4c828b76 (imap-send: eliminate HMAC deprecation
warnings on Mac OS X; 2013-05-19) attempted to ameliorate the situation
by taking advantage of drop-in replacement functionality provided by
Apple's (ABI-stable) CommonCrypto facility, however CommonCrypto
supplies only a subset of deprecated OpenSSL functionality, thus a host
of warnings remain.

Despite this shortcoming, it was hoped that Apple would ultimately
provide CommonCrypto replacements for all deprecated OpenSSL
functionality, and that the effort started by 61067954ce and be4c828b76
would be continued and eventually eliminate all deprecation warnings.
However, now 3.5 years later, and with Mac OS X at 10.10, the hoped-for
CommonCrypto replacements have not yet materialized, nor is there any
indication that they will be forthcoming.

These Apple-specific warnings are pure noise: they don't tell us
anything useful and we have no control over them, nor is Apple likely to
provide replacements any time soon. Such noise may obscure other
legitimate warnings, therefore silence them.

d08c13b947 fsck: complain about NTFS ".git" aliases in trees
Now that the index can block pathnames that can be mistaken
to mean ".git" on NTFS and FAT32, it would be helpful for
fsck to notice such problematic paths. This lets servers
which use receive.fsckObjects block them before the damage
spreads.

Note that the fsck check is always on, even for systems
without core.protectNTFS set. This is technically more
restrictive than we need to be, as a set of users on ext4
could happily use these odd filenames without caring about
NTFS.

However, on balance, it's helpful for all servers to block
these (because the paths can be used for mischief, and
servers which bother to fsck would want to stop the spread
whether they are on NTFS themselves or not), and hardly
anybody will be affected (because the blocked names are
variants of .git or git~1, meaning mischief is almost
certainly what the tree author had in mind).

Ideally these would be controlled by a separate
"fsck.protectNTFS" flag. However, it would be much nicer to
be able to enable/disable _any_ fsck flag individually, and
any scheme we choose should match such a system. Given the
likelihood of anybody using such a path in practice, it is
not unreasonable to wait until such a system materializes.

2b4c6efc82 read-cache: optionally disallow NTFS .git variants
The point of disallowing ".git" in the index is that we
would never want to accidentally overwrite files in the
repository directory. But this means we need to respect the
filesystem's idea of when two paths are equal. The prior
commit added a helper to make such a comparison for NTFS
and FAT32; let's use it in verify_path().

We make this check optional for two reasons:

  1. It restricts the set of allowable filenames, which is
     unnecessary for people who are not on NTFS nor FAT32.
     In practice this probably doesn't matter, though, as
     the restricted names are rather obscure and almost
     certainly would never come up in practice.

  2. It has a minor performance penalty for every path we
     insert into the index.

This patch ties the check to the core.protectNTFS config
option. Though this is expected to be most useful on Windows,
we allow it to be set everywhere, as NTFS may be mounted on
other platforms. The variable does default to on for Windows,
though.

1d1d69bc52 path: add is_ntfs_dotgit() helper
We do not allow paths with a ".git" component to be added to
the index, as that would mean repository contents could
overwrite our repository files. However, asking "is this
path the same as .git" is not as simple as strcmp() on some
filesystems.

On NTFS (and FAT32), there exist so-called "short names" for
backwards-compatibility: 8.3 compliant names that refer to the same files
as their long names. As ".git" is not an 8.3 compliant name, a short name
is generated automatically, typically "git~1".

Depending on the Windows version, any combination of trailing spaces and
periods are ignored, too, so that both "git~1." and ".git." still refer
to the Git directory. The reason is that 8.3 stores file names shorter
than 8 characters with trailing spaces. So literally, it does not matter
for the short name whether it is padded with spaces or whether it is
shorter than 8 characters, it is considered to be the exact same.

The period is the separator between file name and file extension, and
again, an empty extension consists just of spaces in 8.3 format. So
technically, we would need only take care of the equivalent of this
regex:
        (\.git {0,4}|git~1 {0,3})\. {0,3}

However, there are indications that at least some Windows versions might
be more lenient and accept arbitrary combinations of trailing spaces and
periods and strip them out. So we're playing it real safe here. Besides,
there can be little doubt about the intention behind using file names
matching even the more lenient pattern specified above, therefore we
should be fine with disallowing such patterns.

Extra care is taken to catch names such as '.\\.git\\booh' because the
backslash is marked as a directory separator only on Windows, and we want
to use this new helper function also in fsck on other platforms.

A big thank you goes to Ed Thomson and an unnamed Microsoft engineer for
the detailed analysis performed to come up with the corresponding fixes
for libgit2.

This commit adds a function to detect whether a given file name can refer
to the Git directory by mistake.

a18fcc9ff2 fsck: complain about HFS+ ".git" aliases in trees
Now that the index can block pathnames that case-fold to
".git" on HFS+, it would be helpful for fsck to notice such
problematic paths. This lets servers which use
receive.fsckObjects block them before the damage spreads.

Note that the fsck check is always on, even for systems
without core.protectHFS set. This is technically more
restrictive than we need to be, as a set of users on ext4
could happily use these odd filenames without caring about
HFS+.

However, on balance, it's helpful for all servers to block
these (because the paths can be used for mischief, and
servers which bother to fsck would want to stop the spread
whether they are on HFS+ themselves or not), and hardly
anybody will be affected (because the blocked names are
variants of .git with invisible Unicode code-points mixed
in, meaning mischief is almost certainly what the tree
author had in mind).

Ideally these would be controlled by a separate
"fsck.protectHFS" flag. However, it would be much nicer to
be able to enable/disable _any_ fsck flag individually, and
any scheme we choose should match such a system. Given the
likelihood of anybody using such a path in practice, it is
not unreasonable to wait until such a system materializes.
