The gitattributes documentation has a section on the "diff"
attribute, with subsections for each of the things you might
want to configure in your diff config section (external
diff, hunk headers, etc). The first such subsection
specifically notes that the definition of the diff driver
should go into $GIT_DIR/config, but subsequent sections do
not.
This location is implied if you are reading the
documentation sequentially, but it is not uncommon for a new
user to jump to (or be referred to) a specific section. For
a new user who does not know git well enough to recognize
the config syntax, it is not clear that those directives
don't also go into the gitattributes file.
This patch just mentions the config file in each subsection,
similar to the way it is mentioned in the first.

There's already 'd' to stop staging hunks in a file, but no explicit
command to stop the interactive staging (for the current files and the
remaining ones). Of course you can do 'd' and then ^C, but it would be
more intuitive to allow 'quit' action.

This applies the shorten_unambiguous_ref function to the object name.
Default mode is controlled by core.warnAmbiguousRefs. Else it is given as
optional argument to --abbrev-ref={strict|loose}.
This should be faster than 'git for-each-ref --format="%(refname:short)" <ref>'
for single refs.

core.warnAmbiguousRefs is used to select strict mode for the
abbreviation for the ":short" format specifier of "refname" and "upstream".
In strict mode, the abbreviated ref will never trigger the
'warn_ambiguous_refs' warning. I.e. for these refs:
refs/heads/xyzzy
refs/tags/xyzzy
the abbreviated forms are:
heads/xyzzy
tags/xyzzy

The mergetool--lib scriplet was tricky to use because it relied upon
the existance of several global shell variables. This removes more
global variables so that things are simpler for callers.
A side effect is that some variables are recomputed each time
run_merge_tool() is called, but the overhead for recomputing
them is justified by the simpler implementation.

The --ignore-paths option to fetch is very useful for working on a subset
of a SVN repository. For proper operation, every command that causes a
fetch (explicit or implied) must include a matching --ignore-paths option.
This patch adds a persistent svn-remote.$repo_id.ignore-paths config by
promoting Fetcher::is_path_ignored to a member function and initializing
$self->{ignore_regex} in Fetcher::new. Command line --ignore-paths is
still recognized and acts in addition to the config value.

The logic for determining the upstream ref of a branch is
somewhat complex to perform in a shell script. This patch
provides a plumbing mechanism for scripts to access the C
logic used internally by git-status, git-branch, etc.
For example:
$ git for-each-ref \
--format='%(refname:short) %(upstream:short)' \
refs/heads/
master origin/master
