These tests just want a bit-for-bit identical copy; they do not need
even -H (there is no symbolic link involved) nor -p (there is no
funny permission or ownership issues involved).
Just use "cp -R" instead.

The fsck test assumed too much on what kind of error it will
detect. The only important thing is the inconsistency is detected
as an error.

A repository created with "git clone --single" had its fetch
refspecs set up just like a clone without "--single", leading the
subsequent "git fetch" to slurp all the other branches, defeating
the whole point of specifying "only this branch".

clone --single: limit the fetch refspec to fetched branch
It was unclear in the documentation for "git blame" that it is
unnecessary for users to use the "--follow" option.

A patch attached as application/octet-stream (e.g. not text/*) were

We support backslash escape, but we hide the details behind the phrase
"a shell glob suitable for consumption by fnmatch(3)". So it may not
be obvious how one can get literal # or ! at the beginning of pattern.

Subversion's svn_dirent_canonicalize() and svn_path_canonicalize()
APIs keep a leading slash in the return value if one was present on
the argument, which can be useful since it allows relative and
absolute paths to be distinguished.
When git-svn's canonicalize_path() learned to use these functions if
available, its semantics changed in the corresponding way. Some new
callers rely on the leading slash --- for example, if the slash is
stripped out then _canonicalize_url_ourselves() will transform
"proto://host/path/to/resource" to "proto://hostpath/to/resource".
Unfortunately the fallback _canonicalize_path_ourselves(), used when
the appropriate SVN APIs are not usable, still follows the old
semantics, so if that code path is exercised then it breaks. Fix it
to follow the new convention.
Noticed by forcing the fallback on and running tests. Without this
patch, t9101.4 fails:
Bad URL passed to RA layer: Unable to open an ra_local session to \
URL: Local URL 'file://homejrnsrcgit-scratch/t/trash%20directory.\
t9101-git-svn-props/svnrepo' contains unsupported hostname at \
/home/jrn/src/git-scratch/perl/blib/lib/Git/SVN.pm line 148
With it, the git-svn tests pass again.

When using the {word,[...]} style of configuration for tags and branches,
it appears the intent is to only match whole path parts, since the words
in the {} pattern are meta-character quoted.
When the pattern word appears in the beginning or middle of the url,
it's matched completely, since the left side, pattern, and (non-empty)
right side are joined together with path separators.
However, when the pattern word appears at the end of the URL, the
right side is an empty pattern, and the resulting regex matches
more than just the specified pattern.
For example, if you specify something along the lines of
branches = branches/project/{release_1,release_2}
and your repository also contains "branches/project/release_1_2", you
will also get the release_1_2 branch. By restricting the match regex
with anchors, this is avoided.

Consider the case where you have trunk, branch1 of trunk, and branch2 of
branch1. trunk is merged back into branch2, and then branch2 is
reintegrated into trunk. The merge of branch2 into trunk will have
svn:mergeinfo property references to both branch1 and branch2. When
git-svn fetches the commit that merges branch2 (check_cherry_pick),
it is necessary to eliminate the merged contents of branch1 as well as
branch2, or else the merge will be incorrectly ignored as a cherry-pick.

When refactoring the merge-base computation to reduce the pairwise
O(n*(n-1)) traversals to parallel O(n) traversals, the code forgot
that timestamp based heuristics needs each commit to have been
parsed. This caused an empty "git pull" to spend cycles, traversing
the history all the way down to 0 (because an unparsed commit object
has 0 timestamp, and any other commit object with positive timestamp
will be processed for its parents, all getting parsed), only to come
up with a merge message to be used.

Teach the commands from the "log" family the "--grep-reflog" option

When a tag T points at an object X that is of a type that is
different from what the tag records as, fsck should report it as an
error.
However, depending on the order X and T are checked individually,
the actual error message can be different. If X is checked first,
fsck remembers X's type and then when it checks T, it notices that T
records X as a wrong type (i.e. the complaint is about a broken tag
T). If T is checked first, on the other hand, fsck remembers that we
need to verify X is of the type tag records, and when it later
checks X, it notices that X is of a wrong type (i.e. the complaint
is about a broken object X).
The important thing is that fsck notices such an error and diagnoses
the issue on object X, but the test was expecting that we happen to
check objects in the order to make us detect issues with tag T, not
with object X. Remove this unwarranted assumption.

"git submodule frotz" was not diagnosed as "frotz" being an unknown

Previously while reading the variable names in config files, there
was a 256 character limit with at most 128 of those characters being
used by the section header portion of the variable name. This
limitation was only enforced while reading the config files. It was
possible to write a config file that was not subsequently readable.
Instead of enforcing this limitation for both reading and writing,
remove it entirely by changing the var member of the config_file
struct to a strbuf instead of a fixed length buffer. Update all of
the parsing functions in config.c to use the strbuf instead of the
static buffer.
The parsing functions that returned the base length of the variable
name now return simply 0 for success and -1 for failure. The base
length information is obtained through the strbuf's len member.
We now send the buf member of the strbuf to external callback
functions to preserve the external api. None of the external
callers rely on the old size limitation for sizing their own buffers
so removing the limit should have no externally visible effect.

Currently "git am" does insane things if the mbox it is given contains
attachments with a MIME type that aren't "text/*".
In particular, it will still decode them, and pass them "one line at a
time" to the mail body filter, but because it has determined that they
aren't text (without actually looking at the contents, just at the mime
type) the "line" will be the encoding line (eg 'base64') rather than a
line of *content*.
Which then will cause the text filtering to fail, because we won't
correctly notice when the attachment text switches from the commit message
to the actual patch. Resulting in a patch failure, even if patch may be a
perfectly well-formed attachment, it's just that the message type may be
(for example) "application/octet-stream" instead of "text/plain".
Just remove all the bogus games with the message_type. The only difference
that code creates is how the data is passed to the filter function
(chunked per-pred-code line or per post-decode line), and that difference
is *wrong*, since chunking things per pre-decode line can never be a
sensible operation, and cannot possibly matter for binary data anyway.
This code goes all the way back to March of 2007, in commit 87ab799234
("builtin-mailinfo.c infrastrcture changes"), and apparently Don used to
pass random mbox contents to git. However, the pre-decode vs post-decode
logic really shouldn't matter even for that case, and more importantly, "I
fed git am crap" is not a valid reason to break *real* patch attachments.
If somebody really cares, and determines that some attachment is binary
data (by looking at the data, not the MIME-type), the whole attachment
should be dismissed, rather than fed in random-sized chunks to
"handle_filter()".
