* maint-1.7.7:
docs: describe behavior of relative submodule URLs
Documentation: read-tree --prefix works with existing subtrees
Add MYMETA.json to perl/.gitignore
Since the relative submodule URLs have been introduced in f31a522a2d, they
do not conform to the rules for resolving relative URIs but rather to
those of relative directories.
Document that behavior.

* jk/maint-mv:
mv: be quiet about overwriting
mv: improve overwrite warning
mv: make non-directory destination error more clear
mv: honor --verbose flag
docs: mention "-k" for both forms of "git mv"
Clarify there is a -M option, but no -C. These are both
configurable through variables.
Explain that the allowSubmit variable takes a comma-separated
list of branch names.
Catch earlier an invalid branch name given as an argument to
"git p4 clone".
Test option --origin, variable allowSubmit, and explicit master
branch name.

The depot path is required, even with this option. Make sure
git-p4 fails and exits with non-zero.
Contents in the specified depot path will be rearranged according
to the client spec. Test this and add a note in the docs.
Leave an XXX suggesting that this is somewhat confusing behavior
that might be good to fix later.
Function stripRepoPath() looks at self.useClientSpec. Make sure
this is set both for command-line option --use-client-spec and
for configuration variable git-p4.useClientSpec. Test this.

Clone with --branch will not checkout HEAD, unless the branch
happens to be called the default refs/remotes/p4/master. The
--branch option is most useful with sync; give an example of
that.

Document how git-p4 currently works when specifying multiple
depot paths:
1. No branches or directories are named.
2. Conflicting files are silently ignored---the last change
wins.
2. Option --destination is required, else the last path is construed
to be a directory.
3. Revision specifiers must be the same on all paths for them to
take effect.
Test this behavior.

By definition, the default value of "advice.*" variables must be true and
they all control various additional help messages that are designed to aid
new users. Setting one to false is to tell Git that the user understands
the nature of the error and does not need the additional verbose help
message.
Also fix the asciidoc markup for linkgit:git-checkout[1] in the
description of the detachedHead advice by removing an excess colon.

After the description and options, the fsck manpage contains
some discussion about what it does. Over time, this
discussion has become somewhat obsolete, both in content and
formatting. In particular:
1. There are many options now, so starting the discussion
with "It tests..." makes it unclear whether we are
talking about the last option, or about the tool in
general. Let's start a new "discussion" section and
make our antecedent more clear.
2. It gave an example for --unreachable using for-each-ref
to mention all of the heads, saying that it will do "a
_lot_ of verification". This is hopelessly out-of-date,
as giving no arguments will check much more (reflogs,
the index, non-head refs).
3. It goes on to mention tests "to be added" (like tree
object sorting). We now have these tests.

When doing a reflog walk, you can get some information about
the reflog (such as the subject line), but not the identity
information (i.e., name and email).
Let's make those available, mimicing the options for author
and committer identity.

This is like "cache", except that we actually put the
credentials on disk. This can be terribly insecure, of
course, but we do what we can to protect them by filesystem
permissions, and we warn the user in the documentation.
This is not unlike using .netrc to store entries, but it's a
little more user-friendly. Instead of putting credentials in
place ahead of time, we transparently store them after
prompting the user for them once.

The code for a verbose flag has been here since "git mv" was
converted to C many years ago, but actually getting the "-v"
flag from the command line was accidentally lost in the
transition.
