I expected git grep --name-only to give me only the file names,
much as git diff --name-only only generates filenames. Alas the
option is -l, which matches common external greps but doesn't match
other parts of the git UI.

The previous text was correct, but it was easy to miss the
fact that we are talking about "matching" refs. That is, the
text can be parsed as "we push the union of the sets
of remote and local heads" and not "we push the intersection
of the sets of remote and local heads". (The former actually
doesn't make sense if you think about it, since we don't
even _have_ some of those heads). A careful reading would
reveal the correct meaning, but it makes sense to be as
explicit as possible in documentation.
We also explicitly use and introduce the term "matching";
this is a term discussed on the list, and it seems useful
to for users to be able to refer to this behavior by name.

This establishes what the "bad" whitespaces are for this
project.
The rules are:
- Unless otherwise specified, indent with SP that could be
replaced with HT are not "bad". But SP before HT in the
indent is "bad", and trailing whitespaces are "bad".
- For C source files, initial indent by SP that can be replaced
with HT is also "bad".
- Test scripts in t/ and test vectors in its subdirectories can
contain anything, so we make it unrestricted for now.
Anything "bad" will be shown in WHITESPACE error indicator in
diff output, and "apply --whitespace=warn" will warn about it.

I was able to solve this problem with this patch, which adds a XSL file
used specifically for DOCBOOK_XSL_172=YesPlease and where dots and
backslashes are escaped properly so they won't be substituted to the
wrong thing further down the "DocBook XSL pipeline". Doing the escaping
in the existing callout.xsl breaks v1.70.1. Hopefully v1.73 will end
this part of the manpage nightmare.

"git pack-objects" has the option --max-pack-size to limit the file
size of the packs to a certain amount of bytes. On platforms where
the pack file size is limited by filesystem constraints, it is easy
to forget this option, and this option does not exist for "git gc"
to begin with.
So introduce a config variable to set the default maximum, but make
this overrideable by the command line.

CRLF conversion bears a slight chance of corrupting data.
autocrlf=true will convert CRLF to LF during commit and LF to
CRLF during checkout. A file that contains a mixture of LF and
CRLF before the commit cannot be recreated by git. For text
files this is the right thing to do: it corrects line endings
such that we have only LF line endings in the repository.
But for binary files that are accidentally classified as text the
conversion can corrupt data.
If you recognize such corruption early you can easily fix it by
setting the conversion type explicitly in .gitattributes. Right
after committing you still have the original file in your work
tree and this file is not yet corrupted. You can explicitly tell
git that this file is binary and git will handle the file
appropriately.
Unfortunately, the desired effect of cleaning up text files with
mixed line endings and the undesired effect of corrupting binary
files cannot be distinguished. In both cases CRLFs are removed
in an irreversible way. For text files this is the right thing
to do because CRLFs are line endings, while for binary files
converting CRLFs corrupts data.
This patch adds a mechanism that can either warn the user about
an irreversible conversion or can even refuse to convert. The
mechanism is controlled by the variable core.safecrlf, with the
following values:
- false: disable safecrlf mechanism
- warn: warn about irreversible conversions
- true: refuse irreversible conversions
The default is to warn. Users are only affected by this default
if core.autocrlf is set. But the current default of git is to
leave core.autocrlf unset, so users will not see warnings unless
they deliberately chose to activate the autocrlf mechanism.
The safecrlf mechanism's details depend on the git command. The
general principles when safecrlf is active (not false) are:
- we warn/error out if files in the work tree can modified in an
irreversible way without giving the user a chance to backup the
original file.
- for read-only operations that do not modify files in the work tree
we do not not print annoying warnings.
There are exceptions. Even though...
- "git add" itself does not touch the files in the work tree, the
next checkout would, so the safety triggers;
- "git apply" to update a text file with a patch does touch the files
in the work tree, but the operation is about text files and CRLF
conversion is about fixing the line ending inconsistencies, so the
safety does not trigger;
- "git diff" itself does not touch the files in the work tree, it is
often run to inspect the changes you intend to next "git add". To
catch potential problems early, safety triggers.
The concept of a safety check was originally proposed in a similar
way by Linus Torvalds. Thanks to Dimitry Potapov for insisting
on getting the naked LF/autocrlf=true case right.

The prepare-commit-msg hook is run whenever a "fresh" commit message
is prepared, just before it is shown in the editor (if it is).
Its purpose is to modify the commit message in-place.
It takes one to three parameters. The first is the name of the file that
the commit log message. The second is the source of the commit message,
and can be: "message" (if a -m or -F option was given); "template" (if a
-t option was given or the configuration option commit.template is set);
"merge" (if the commit is a merge or a .git/MERGE_MSG file exists);
"squash" (if a .git/SQUASH_MSG file exists); or "commit", followed by
a commit SHA1 as the third parameter (if a -c, -C or --amend option
was given).
If its exit status is non-zero, git-commit will abort. The hook is
not suppressed by the --no-verify option, so it should not be used
as a replacement for the pre-commit hook.
The sample prepare-commit-msg comments out the `Conflicts:` part of
a merge's commit message; other examples are commented out, including
adding a Signed-off-by line at the bottom of the commit messsage,
that the user can then edit or discard altogether.
