'rerere gc' prunes resolutions of conflicted merges that occurred long
time ago, and when doing so it takes the creation time of the
conflicted automerge results into account. This can cause the loss of
frequently used conflict resolutions (e.g. long-living topic branches
are merged into a regularly rebuilt integration branch (think of git's
pu)) when they become old enough to exceed 'rerere gc's threshold.
To prevent the loss of valuable merge resolutions 'rerere' will (1)
update the timestamp of the recorded conflict resolution (i.e.
'postimage') each time when encountering and resolving the same merge
conflict, and (2) take this timestamp, i.e. the time of the last usage
into account when gc'ing.

Several tests did not use test_expect_success for their setup
commands. Putting these start commands into the testing framework
means both that errors during setup will be caught quickly and that
non-error text will be suppressed without -v.

POSIX only requires sed to work on text files and MERGE_RR is not a text
file. Some versions of sed complain that this file is not newline
terminated, and exit non-zero. Use perl instead which does not have a
problem with it.

These two lines appear to be unnecessary. They set variables which are not
used afterwards. The primary motivation to remove them is that the sed
invocation exits non-zero for seds which require newline termination of
input files.

* sb/dashless:
Make usage strings dash-less
t/: Use "test_must_fail git" instead of "! git"
t/test-lib.sh: exit with small negagive int is ok with test_must_fail

builtin-mailinfo.c
builtin-mailsplit.c

t/t4200-rerere.sh
This patch changes every occurrence of "! git" -- with the meaning
that a git call has to gracefully fail -- into "test_must_fail git".
This is useful to
- make sure the test does not fail because of a signal,
e.g. SIGSEGV, and
- advertise the use of "test_must_fail" for new tests.

If you want to reuse the rerere cache in another repository, and set
a symbolic link to it, you do not want to have the two repositories
interfer with each other by accessing the _same_ MERGE_RR.
For example, if you use contrib/git-new-workdir to set up a second
working directory, and you have a conflict in one working directory,
but commit in the other working directory first, the wrong "resolution"
will be recorded.
The easy solution is to move MERGE_RR out of the rr-cache/ directory,
which also corresponds with the notion that rr-cache/ contains cached
resolutions, not some intermediate temporary states.
Noticed by Kalle Olavi Niemitalo.

When a conflicting file contains a line that begin with "=======", rerere
failed to parse conflict markers. This result to a wrong preimage file and
an unexpected error for the user. The boundary between ours and theirs
not just begin with 7 equals, but is followed by either a SP or a LF.
This patch enforces parsing rules so that markers match in the right order,
and when ambiguous, the command does not autoresolve the conflicted file.
Especially because we are introducing rerere.autoupdate configuration
(which is off by default for safety) that automatically stages the
resolution made by rerere, it is necessary to make sure that we do not
autoresolve when there is any ambiguity.

The test used "diff-files -q" which is not about reporting if there is
a difference at all. Instead, make sure that the path remains as
conflicting in the index after rerere autoresolves it, as we will be
adding rerere.autoupdate configuration with the next patch.
As a general principle, we should not use "git diff" to validate the
results of what git command that is being tested has done. We would not
know if we are testing the command in question, or locating a bug in the
cute hack of "git diff --no-index".
Rather use test_cmp for that purpose.

Dealing with NULs is not always safe with tr. On Solaris,
incoming NULs are silently deleted by both the System V and
UCB versions of tr. When converting to NULs, the System V
version works fine, but the UCB version silently ignores the
request to convert the character.
This patch changes all instances of tr using NULs to use
"perl -pe 'y///'" instead.

Two-file merges were rare enough that they were dropped outside of the
radar. This fix is a trivial change to builtin-rerere.c::find_conflict().
It is still sane to insist that we do not do rerere for symlinks, and
require to have stages #2 and #3, but we can drop the requirement to have
stage #1. rerere does not use information from there anyway.
This fix is from Junio, together with two tests to verify that it works
as expected.

Earlier, "git rerere" was enabled by creating the directory
.git/rr-cache. That is definitely not in line with most other
features, which are enabled by a config variable.
So, check the config variable "rerere.enabled". If it is set
to "false" explicitely, do not activate rerere, even if
.git/rr-cache exists. This should help when you want to disable
rerere temporarily.
If "rerere.enabled" is not set at all, fall back to detection
of the directory .git/rr-cache.
