There were a few "now I am doing this thing" progress messages in
the TCP connection code that can be triggered by setting a verbose
option internally in the code, but "git fetch -v" and friends never
passed the verbose option down to that codepath.
There was a brief discussion about the impact on the end-user
experience by not limiting this to "fetch -v -v", but I think the
conclusion is that this is OK to enable with a single "-v" as it is
not too noisy.

"git worktree" had a broken code that attempted to auto-fix
possible inconsistency that results from end-users moving a
worktree to different places without telling Git (the original
repository needs to maintain backpointers to its worktrees, but
"mv" run by end-users who are not familiar with that fact will
obviously not adjust them), which actually made things worse
when triggered.

worktree.c: fix indentation
The get_sha1() function generally returns an error code
rather than dying, and we sometimes speculatively call it
with something that may be a revision or a pathspec, in
order to see which one it might be.
If it sees a bogus ":/" search string, though, it complains,
without giving the caller the opportunity to recover. We can
demonstrate this in t6133 by looking for ":/*.t", which
should mean "*.t at the root of the tree", but instead dies
because of the invalid regex (the "*" has nothing to operate
on).
We can fix this by returning an error rather than calling
die(). Unfortunately, the tradeoff is that the error message
is slightly worse in cases where we _do_ know we have a rev.
E.g., running "git log ':/*.t' --" before yielded:
fatal: Invalid search pattern: *.t
and now we get only:
fatal: bad revision ':/*.t'
There's not a simple way to fix this short of passing a
"quiet" flag all the way through the get_sha1() stack.

When specifying both revisions and pathnames, we allow
"<rev> -- <pathspec>" to be spelled without the "--" as long
as it is not ambiguous. The original logic was something
like:
1. Resolve each item with get_sha1(). If successful,
we know it can be a <rev>. Verify that it _isn't_ a
filename, using verify_non_filename(), and complain of
ambiguity otherwise.
2. If get_sha1() didn't succeed, make sure that it _is_
a file, using verify_filename(). If not, complain
that it is neither a <rev> nor a <pathspec>.
Both verify_filename() and verify_non_filename() rely on
check_filename(), which definitely said "yes, this is a
file" or "no, it is not" using lstat().
Commit 28fcc0b (pathspec: avoid the need of "--" when
wildcard is used, 2015-05-02) introduced a convenience
feature: check_filename() will consider anything with
wildcard meta-characters as a possible filename, without
even checking the filesystem.
This works well for case 2. For such a wildcard, we would
previously have died and said "it is neither". Post-28fcc0b,
we assume it's a pathspec and proceed.
But it makes some instances of case 1 worse. We may have an
extended sha1 expression that contains meta-characters
(e.g., "HEAD^{/foo.*bar}"), and we now complain that it's
also a filename, due to the wildcard characters (even though
that wildcard would not match anything in the filesystem).
One solution would be to actually expand the pathname and
see if it matches anything on the filesystem. But that's
potentially expensive, and we do not have to be so rigorous
for this DWIM magic (if you want rigor, use "--").
Instead, we can just use different rules for cases 1 and 2.
When we know something is a rev, we will complain only if it
meets a much higher standard for "this is also a file";
namely that it actually exists in the filesystem. Case 2
remains the same: we use the looser "it could be a filename"
standard introduced by 28fcc0b.
We can accomplish this by pulling the wildcard logic out of
check_filename() and putting it into verify_filename(). Its
partner verify_non_filename() does not need a change, since
check_filename() goes back to implementing the "higher
standard".
Besides these two callers of check_filename(), there is one
other: git-checkout does a similar DWIM itself. It hits this
code path only after get_sha1() has returned failure, making
it case 2, which gets the special wildcard treatment.
Note that we drop the tests in t2019 in favor of a more
complete set in t6133. t2019 was not the right place for
them (it's about refname ambiguity, not dwim parsing
ambiguity), and the second test explicitly checked for the
opposite result of the case we are fixing here (which didn't
really make any sense; as shown by the test_must_fail in the
test, it would only serve to annoy people).

If we have a "--" flag, we should not be doing DWIM magic
based on whether arguments can be filenames. Reorder the
conditional to avoid the check_filename() call entirely in
this case. The outcome is the same, but the short-circuit
makes the dependency more clear.

It used to be that:
git config --global user.email "(none)"
was a viable way for people to force themselves to set user.email in
each repository. This was helpful for people with more than one
email address, targeting different email addresses for different
clones, as it barred git from creating a commit unless the user.email
config was set in the per-repo config to the correct email address.
A recent change, 19ce497c (ident: keep a flag for bogus
default_email, 2015-12-10), however, declared that an explicitly
configured user.email is not bogus, no matter what its value is, so
this hack no longer works.
Provide the same functionality by adding a new configuration
variable user.useConfigOnly; when this variable is set, the
user must explicitly set user.email configuration.

This function has evolved quite a bit over time, and as a
result, the logic for "is this an OK ident" has been
sprinkled throughout. This ends up with a lot of redundant
conditionals, like checking want_name repeatedly. Worse,
we want to know in many cases whether we are using the
"default" ident, and we do so by comparing directly to the
global strbuf, which violates the abstraction of the
ident_default_* functions.
Let's reorganize the function into a hierarchy of
conditionals to handle similar cases together. The only
case that doesn't just work naturally for this is that of an
empty name, where our advice is different based on whether
we came from ident_default_name() or not. We can use a
simple flag to cover this case.
