The current code structure assumes that we will only look at
a pair of lines at any given time, and that the end result
should always be to output that pair. However, we want to
eventually handle multi-line hunks, which will involve
collating pairs of removed/added lines. Let's refactor the
code to return highlighted pairs instead of printing them.

If you have a change like:
-foo
+bar
we end up highlighting the entirety of both lines (since the
whole thing is changed). But the point of diff highlighting
is to pinpoint the specific change in a pair of lines that
are mostly identical. In this case, the highlighting is just
noise, since there is nothing to pinpoint, and we are better
off doing nothing.
The implementation looks for "interesting" pairs by checking
to see whether they actually have a matching prefix or
suffix that does not simply consist of colorization and
whitespace. However, the implementation makes it easy to
plug in other heuristics, too, like:
1. Depending on the source material, the set of "boring"
characters could be tweaked to include language-specific
stuff (like braces or semicolons for C).
2. Instead of saying "an interesting line has at least one
character of prefix or suffix", we could require that
less than N percent of the line be highlighted.
The simple "ignore whitespace, and highlight if there are
any matched characters" implemented by this patch seems to
give good results on git.git. I'll leave experimentation
with other heuristics to somebody who has a dataset that
does not look good with the current code.
Based on an original idea and implementation by Michał
Kiedrowicz.

Change several tests to use the sane_unset function introduced in
v1.7.3.1-35-g00648ba instead of the built-in unset function.
This fixes a failure I was having on t9130-git-svn-authors-file.sh on
Solaris, and prevents several other issues from occurring.

I'm no longer running the Git smoke testing service at
smoke.git.nix.is due to Smolder being a fragile piece of software not
having time to follow through on making it easy for third parties to
run and submit their own smoke tests.
So remove the support in Git for sending smoke tests to
smoke.git.nix.is, it's still easy to modify the test suite to submit
smokes somewhere else.
This reverts the following commits:
Revert "t/README: Add SMOKE_{COMMENT,TAGS}= to smoke_report target" -- e38efac87d
Revert "t/README: Document the Smoke testing" -- d15e9ebc5c

Ever since the very first commit to git.git we've been setting CC to
"gcc". Presumably this is behavior that Linus copied from the Linux
Makefile.
However unlike Linux Git is written in ANSI C and supports a multitude
of compilers, including Clang, Sun Studio, xlc etc. On my Linux box
"cc" is a symlink to clang, and on a Solaris box I have access to "cc"
is Sun Studio's CC.
Both of these are perfectly capable of compiling Git, and it's
annoying to have to specify CC=cc on the command-line when compiling
Git when that's the default behavior of most other portable programs.
So change the default to "cc". Users who want to compile with GCC can
still add "CC=gcc" to the make(1) command-line, but those users who
don't have GCC as their "cc" will see expected behavior, and as a
bonus we'll be more likely to smoke out new compilation warnings from
our distributors since they'll me using a more varied set of compilers
by default.

When the user explicitly asked us not to, don't launch an editor.
But do everything else the same way as the "edit" case, i.e. leave the
comment with verification result in the log template and record the
mergesig in the resulting merge commit for later inspection.

"git tag -n" did not check the type of the object it is reading the top n
lines from. At least, avoid showing the beginning of trees and blobs when
dealing with lightweight tags that point at them.
As the payload of a tag and a commit look similar in that they both start
with a header block, which is skipped for the purpose of "-n" output,
followed by human readable text, allow the message of commit objects to be
shown just like the contents of tag objects. This avoids regression for
people who have been using "tag -n" to show the log messages of commits
that are pointed at by lightweight tags.
Test script is from Jeff King.
