If somebody has a name that includes an rfc822 special, we
will output it literally in the "From:" header. This is
usually OK, but certain characters (like ".") are supposed
to be enclosed in double-quotes in a mail header.
In practice, whether this matters may depend on your MUA.
Some MUAs will happily take in:
From: Foo B. Bar <author@example.com>
without quotes, and properly quote the "." when they send
the actual mail. Others may not, or may screw up harder
things like:
From: Foo "The Baz" Bar <author@example.com>
For example, mutt will strip the quotes, thinking they are
actual syntactic rfc822 quotes.
So let's quote properly, and then (if necessary) we still
apply rfc2047 encoding on top of that, which should make all
MUAs happy.

On systems where the local time and file modification time may be out of
sync (e.g. test directory on NFS) t3306 and t5305 can fail because prune
compares times such as "now" (client time) with file modification times
(server times for remote file systems). I.e., these are spurious test
failures.
Avoid this by setting the relevant modification times to the local time.
Noticed on a system with as little as 2s time skew.

For a pull into an unborn branch, we do not use "git merge"

used the --reset parameter instead of "-m", which turns off

strbuf: add fixed-length version of add_wrapped_text
Starting with commit c793430 (Limit file descriptors used by packs,
2011-02-28), git uses getrlimit to tell how many file descriptors it
can use. Unfortunately it does not include the header declaring that
function, resulting in compilation errors:
sha1_file.c: In function 'open_packed_git_1':
sha1_file.c:718: error: storage size of 'lim' isn't known
sha1_file.c:721: warning: implicit declaration of function 'getrlimit'
sha1_file.c:721: error: 'RLIMIT_NOFILE' undeclared (first use in this function)
sha1_file.c:718: warning: unused variable 'lim'
The standard header to include for this is <sys/resource.h> (which on
some systems itself requires declarations from <sys/types.h> or
<sys/time.h>). Probably the problem was missed until now because in
current glibc sys/resource.h happens to be included by sys/wait.h.
MinGW does not provide sys/resource.h (and compat/mingw takes care of
providing getrlimit some other way), so add the missing #include to
the "#ifndef __MINGW32__" block in git-compat-util.h.

Earlier f98fd43 (git-log.txt,rev-list-options.txt: put option blocks in
proper order, 2011-03-08) moved the text around in the documentation for
options in the rev-list family of commands such as "log". Consequently,
the description of the --cherry-pick option appears way above the
description of the --left-right option now.
But the description of the --cherry-pick option still refers to the
example for the --left-right option, like this:
... with --left-right, like the example ABOVE in the description of
that option.
Rephrase it to clarify that we are making a forward reference.

During a merge module_list returns conflicting submodules several times
(stage 1,2,3) which caused the submodules to be used multiple times in
git submodule init, sync, update and status command.
There are 5 callers of module_list; they all read (mode, sha1, stage,
path) tuple, and most of them care only about path. As a first level
approximation, it should be Ok (in the sense that it does not make things
worse than it currently is) to filter the duplicate paths from module_list
output, but some callers should change their behaviour when the merge in
the superproject still has conflicts.
Notice the higher-stage entries, and emit only one record from
module_list, but while doing so, mark the entry with "U" (not [0-3]) in
the $stage field and null out the SHA-1 part, as the object name for the
lowest stage does not give any useful information to the caller, and this
way any caller that uses the object name would hopefully barf. Then
update the codepaths for each subcommands this way:
- "update" should not touch the submodule repository, because we do not
know what commit should be checked out yet.
- "status" reports the conflicting submodules as 'U000...000' and does
not recurse into them (we might later want to make it recurse).
- The command called by "foreach" may want to do whatever it wants to do
by noticing the merged status in the superproject itself, so feed the
path to it from module_list as before, but only once per submodule.
- "init" and "sync" are unlikely things to do while the superproject is
still not merged, but as long as a submodule is there in $path, there
is no point skipping it. It might however want to take the merged
status of .gitmodules into account, but that is outside of the scope of
this topic.
