"git rev-parse" interprets string in string@{upstream} as a name of

git pull passed -q and -v only to git merge, but they can be useful for
git rebase as well, so pass them there, too.
In particular, using -q shuts up the "Already up-to-date." message.
Especially, a new test script runs the same "pull --rebase" twice to
make sure both cases are quiet, when it has something to fetch and
when it is already up to date.

The generic chdir() helper sets the PWD environment
variable, as that is what is used by p4 to know its
current working directory. Normally the shell would
do this, but in git-p4, we must do it by hand.
However, when the path contains a symbolic link,
os.getcwd() will return the physical location. If the
p4 client specification includes symlinks, setting PWD
to the physical location causes p4 to think it is not
inside the client workspace. It complains, e.g.
Path /vol/bar/projects/foo/... is not under client root /p/foo
One workaround is to use AltRoots in the p4 client specification,
but it is cleaner to handle it directly in git-p4.
Other uses of chdir still require setting PWD to an
absolute path so p4 features like P4CONFIG work. See
bf1d68f (git-p4: use absolute directory for PWD env
var, 2011-12-09).

A recent change added functions whose entire standard error stream
is redirected to /dev/null using a construct that is valid POSIX.1
but is not widely used:
funcname () {
cd "$1" && run some command "$2"
} 2>/dev/null
Even though this file is "git-completion.bash", zsh completion
support dot-sources it (instead of asking bash to grok it like tcsh
completion does), and zsh does not implement this redirection
correctly.
With zsh, trying to complete an inexistant directory gave this:
git add no-such-dir/__git_ls_files_helper💿2: no such file or directory: no-such-dir/
Also these functions use "cd" to first go somewhere else before
running a command, but the location the caller wants them to go that
is given as an argument to them should not be affected by CDPATH
variable the users may have set for their interactive session.
To fix both of these, wrap the body of the function in a subshell,
unset CDPATH at the beginning of the subshell, and redirect the
standard error stream of the subshell to /dev/null.

git-archive relies on get_pathspec to convert its argv into
a list of pathspecs. When get_pathspec is given an empty
argv list, it returns a single pathspec, the empty string,
to indicate that everything matches. When we feed this to
our path_exists function, we typically see that the pathspec
turns up at least one item in the tree, and we are happy.
But when our tree is empty, we erroneously think it is
because the pathspec is too limited, when in fact it is
simply that there is nothing to be found in the tree. This
is a weird corner case, but the correct behavior is almost
certainly to produce an empty archive, not to exit with an
error.
This patch teaches git-archive to create empty archives when
there is no pathspec given (we continue to complain if a
pathspec is given, since it obviously is not matched). It
also confirms that the tar and zip writers produce sane
output in this instance.

If I disable git-shell's interactive mode by removing the
~/git-shell-commands directory, attempts to ssh in to the service
produce a message intended for the administrator:
$ ssh git@myserver
fatal: Interactive git shell is not enabled.
hint: ~/git-shell-commands should exist and have read and execute access.
$
That is helpful for the new admin who is wondering "What? Why isn't
the git-shell I just set up working?", but once the site setup is
complete, it would be better to give the user a friendly hint that she
is on the right track, like GitHub does.
Hi <username>! You've successfully authenticated, but
GitHub does not provide shell access.
An appropriate greeting might even include more complex dynamic
information, like gitolite's list of repositories the user has access
to. Add support for a ~/git-shell-commands/no-interactive-login
command that generates an arbitrary greeting. When the user tries to
log in:
* If the file ~/git-shell-commands/no-interactive-login exists,
run no-interactive-login to let the server say what it likes,
then hang up.
* Otherwise, if ~/git-shell-commands/ is present, start an
interactive read-eval-print loop.
* Otherwise, print the usual configuration hint and hang up.

The original git-shell(1) manpage emphasized that the shell supports
only git transport commands. As the shell gained features, that
emphasis and focus in the manual has been lost. Bring it back by
splitting the manpage into a few short sections and fleshing out each:
- SYNOPSIS, describing how the shell gets used in practice
- DESCRIPTION, which gives an overview of the purpose and guarantees
provided by this restricted shell
- COMMANDS, listing supported commands and restrictions on the
arguments they accept
- INTERACTIVE USE, describing the interactive mode
Also add a "see also" section with related reading.
