The term "tracking" often creates confusion between remote
tracking branches and local branches which track a remote
branch. The term "upstream" captures more clearly the idea
of "branch A is based on branch B in some way", so it makes
sense to mention it.
At the same time, upstream branches are used for more
than just git-pull these days; let's mention that here.

Ack, ack.
There's another easy 5% or so for the built-in object walker: once we've
created the hash from the name, the name isn't interesting any more, and
so something trivial like this can help a bit.
Does it matter? Probably not on its own. But a few more memory saving
tricks and it might all make a difference.

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.

The --ignore-paths option to fetch is very useful for working on a subset
of a SVN repository. For proper operation, every command that causes a
fetch (explicit or implied) must include a matching --ignore-paths option.
This patch adds a persistent svn-remote.$repo_id.ignore-paths config by
promoting Fetcher::is_path_ignored to a member function and initializing
$self->{ignore_regex} in Fetcher::new. Command line --ignore-paths is
still recognized and acts in addition to the config value.

The name of the processed object was duplicated for passing it to
add_object(), but that already calls path_name, which allocates a new
string anyway. So the memory allocated by the xstrdup calls just went
nowhere, leaking memory.

For systems with a missing or broken perl, it is nicer to
explicitly say "we don't want perl" because:
1. The Makefile knows not to bother with Perl-ish things
like Git.pm.
2. We can print a more user-friendly error message
than "foo is not a git command" or whatever the broken
perl might barf
3. Test scripts that require perl can mark themselves and
such and be skipped
This patch implements parts (1) and (2). The perl/
subdirectory is skipped entirely, gitweb is not built, and
any git commands which rely on perl will print a
human-readable message and exit with an error code.
This patch is based on one from Robin H. Johnson.

Often we want to shorten a full ref name to something "prettier"
to show a user. For example, "refs/heads/master" is often shown
simply as "master", or "refs/remotes/origin/master" is shown as
"origin/master".
Many places in the code use a very simple formula: skip common
prefixes like refs/heads, refs/remotes, etc. This is codified in
the prettify_ref function.
for-each-ref has a more correct (but more expensive) approach:
consider the ref lookup rules, and try shortening as much as
possible while remaining unambiguous.
This patch makes the latter strategy globally available as
shorten_unambiguous_ref.

This code handles some special magic like *-deref and the

field which outputs a ref and wants to use the same code.
This patch splits the "which ref are we outputting" from the
actual formatting. There should be no behavioral change.
