Currently, it will only do a checkout if the sha1 registered in the containing
repository doesn't match the HEAD of the submodule, regardless of whether the
submodule is dirty. As discussed on the mailing list, the '--force' flag is a
strong indicator that the state of the submodule is suspect, and should be reset
to HEAD.

This script is one of the sizeable ones that tempted people to copy
its "neibouring style" in their new code, but was littered with
styles incompatible with our style guide.
- use one tab, not four spaces, per indent level;
- long lines can be wrapped after '|', '&&', or '||' for
readability.
- structures like "if .. then .. else .. fi", "while .. do .. done"
are split into lines in such a way that does not require
unnecessary semicolon.
- case, esac and case-arms align at the same column.

Either end of revision range operator can be omitted to default to HEAD,
as in "origin.." (what did I do since I forked) or "..origin" (what did
they do since I forked). But the current parser interprets ".." as an
empty range "HEAD..HEAD", and worse yet, because ".." does exist on the
filesystem, we get this annoying output:
$ cd Documentation/howto
$ git log .. ;# give me recent commits that touch Documentation/ area.
fatal: ambiguous argument '..': both revision and filename
Use '--' to separate filenames from revisions
Surely we could say "git log ../" or even "git log -- .." to disambiguate,
but we shouldn't have to.

The existing --set-uptream option can cause confusion, as it uses the
usual branch convention of assuming a starting point of HEAD if none
is specified, causing
git branch --set-upstream origin/master
to create a new local branch 'origin/master' that tracks the current
branch. As --set-upstream already exists, we can't simply change its
behaviour. To work around this, introduce --set-upstream-to which
accepts a compulsory argument indicating what the new upstream branch
should be and one optinal argument indicating which branch to change,
defaulting to HEAD.
The new options allows us to type
git branch --set-upstream-to origin/master
to set the current branch's upstream to be origin's master.

When a line in the message is not a valid utf-8, "git mailinfo"
attempts to convert it to utf-8 assuming the input is latin1 (and
punt if it does not convert cleanly). Using the same heuristics in
"git commit" and "git commit-tree" lets the editor output be in
latin1 to make the overall system more consistent.

The previous series introduced warnings to multiple places, but it
could become tiring to see the warning on the same path over and
over again during a single run of Git. Making just one function
responsible for issuing this warning, we could later choose to keep
track of which paths we issued a warning (it would involve a hash
table of paths after running them through real_path() or something)
in order to reduce noise.
Right now we do not know if the noise reduction is necessary, but it
still would be a good code reduction/sharing anyway.

When we try to access gitignore files, we check for their
existence with a call to "access". We silently ignore
missing files. However, if a file is not readable, this may
be a configuration error; let's warn the user.
For $GIT_DIR/info/excludes or core.excludesfile, we can just
use access_or_warn. However, for per-directory files we
actually try to open them, so we must add a custom warning.

Before reading a config file, we check "!access(path, R_OK)"
to make sure that the file exists and is readable. If it's
not, then we silently ignore it.
For the case of ENOENT, this is fine, as the presence of the
file is optional. For other cases, though, it may indicate a
configuration error (e.g., not having permissions to read
the file). Let's print a warning in these cases to let the
user know.
