When manually resolving a notes merge, if the merging ref has moved since
the merge started, we should fail to complete the merge, and alert the user
to what's going on.
This situation may arise if you start a 'git notes merge' which results in
conflicts, and you then update the current notes ref (using for example
'git notes add/copy/amend/edit/remove/prune', 'git update-ref', etc.),
before you get around to resolving the notes conflicts and calling
'git notes merge --commit'.
We detect this situation by comparing the first parent of the partial merge
commit (which was created when the merge started) to the current value of the
merging notes ref (pointed to by the .git/NOTES_MERGE_REF symref).
If we don't fail in this situation, the notes merge commit would overwrite
the updated notes ref, thus losing the changes that happened in the meantime.
The patch includes a testcase verifying that we fail correctly in this
situation.

When the notes merge conflicts in .git/NOTES_MERGE_WORKTREE have been
resolved, we need to record a new notes commit on the appropriate notes
ref with the resolved notes.
This patch implements 'git notes merge --commit' which the user should
run after resolving conflicts in the notes merge worktree. This command
finalizes the notes merge by recombining the partial notes tree from
part 1 with the now-resolved conflicts in the notes merge worktree in a
merge commit, and updating the appropriate ref to this merge commit.
In order to correctly finalize the merge, we need to keep track of three
things:
- The partial merge result from part 1, containing the auto-merged notes.
This is now stored into a ref called .git/NOTES_MERGE_PARTIAL.
- The unmerged notes. These are already stored in
.git/NOTES_MERGE_WORKTREE, thanks to part 1.
- The notes ref to be updated by the finalized merge result. This is now
stored in a symref called .git/NOTES_MERGE_REF.
In addition to "git notes merge --commit", which uses the above details
to create the finalized notes merge commit, this patch also implements
"git notes merge --reset", which aborts the ongoing notes merge by simply
removing the files/directory described above.
FTR, "git notes merge --commit" reuses "git notes merge --reset" to remove
the information described above (.git/NOTES_MERGE_*) after the notes merge
have been successfully finalized.
The patch also contains documentation and testcases for the two new options.

- Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason: Fix nonsense sentence in --commit description
- Sverre Rabbelier: Rename --reset to --abort

Conflicts (that are to be resolved manually) are written into a special-
purpose working tree, located at .git/NOTES_MERGE_WORKTREE. Within this
directory, conflicting notes entries are stored (with conflict markers
produced by ll_merge()) using the SHA1 of the annotated object. The
.git/NOTES_MERGE_WORKTREE directory will only contain the _conflicting_
note entries. The non-conflicting note entries (aka. the partial merge
result) are stored in 'local_tree', and the SHA1 of the resulting commit
is written to 'result_sha1'. The return value from notes_merge() is -1.
The user is told to edit the files within the .git/NOTES_MERGE_WORKTREE
directory in order to resolve the conflicts.
The patch also contains documentation and testcases for the correct setup
of .git/NOTES_MERGE_WORKTREE.
The next part will recombine the partial notes merge result with the
resolved conflicts in .git/NOTES_MERGE_WORKTREE to produce the complete
merge result.

The new -s/--strategy command-line option to 'git notes merge' allow the user
to choose how notes merge conflicts should be resolved. There are four valid
strategies to choose from:
1. "manual" (the default): This will let the user manually resolve conflicts.
This option currently fails with an error message. It will be implemented
properly in future patches.
2. "ours": This automatically chooses the local version of a conflict, and
discards the remote version.
3. "theirs": This automatically chooses the remote version of a conflict, and
discards the local version.
4. "union": This automatically resolves the conflict by appending the remote
version to the local version.
The strategies are implemented using the combine_notes_* functions from the
notes.h API.
The patch also includes testcases verifying the correct implementation of
these strategies.

This continuation of the 'git notes merge' implementation teaches notes-merge
to properly do real merges between notes trees: Two diffs are performed, one
from $base to $remote, and another from $base to $local. The paths in each
diff are normalized to SHA1 object names. The two diffs are then consolidated
into a single list of change pairs to be evaluated. Each change pair consist
of:
- The annotated object's SHA1
- The $base SHA1 (i.e. the common ancestor notes for this object)
- The $local SHA1 (i.e. the current notes for this object)
- The $remote SHA1 (i.e. the to-be-merged notes for this object)
From the pair ($base -> $local, $base -> $remote), we can determine the merge
result using regular 3-way rules. If conflicts are encountered in this
process, we fail loudly and exit (conflict handling to be added in a future
patch), If we can complete the merge without conflicts, the resulting
notes tree is committed, and the current notes ref updated.
The patch includes added testcases verifying that we can successfully do real
conflict-less merges.

The combine_notes_fn functions uses a non-zero return value to indicate
failure. However, this return value was converted to a call to die()
in note_tree_insert().
Instead, propagate this return value out to add_note(), and return it
from there to enable the caller to handle errors appropriately.
Existing add_note() callers are updated to die() upon failure, thus
preserving the current behaviour. The only exceptions are copy_note()
and notes_cache_put() where we are able to propagate the add_note()
return value instead.

15b4f7a (merge-tree: use ll_merge() not xdl_merge(), 2010-01-16)
introduced a regression to merge-tree to cause it to segfault when merging
files which existed in one branch, but not in the other or in the
merge-base. This was caused by referencing entry->path at a time when
entry was known to be possibly-NULL.
To correct the problem, we save the path of the entry we came in with,
as the path should be the same among all the stages no matter which
sides are involved in the merge.

In some use cases it is not desirable that "git status" considers
submodules that only contain untracked content as dirty. This may happen
e.g. when the submodule is not under the developers control and not all
build generated files have been added to .gitignore by the upstream
developers. Using the "untracked" parameter for the "--ignore-submodules"
option disables checking for untracked content and lets git diff report
them as changed only when they have new commits or modified content.
Sometimes it is not wanted to have submodules show up as changed when they
just contain changes to their work tree (this was the behavior before
1.7.0). An example for that are scripts which just want to check for
submodule commits while ignoring any changes to the work tree. Also users
having large submodules known not to change might want to use this option,
as the - sometimes substantial - time it takes to scan the submodule work
tree(s) is saved when using the "dirty" parameter.
And if you want to ignore any changes to submodules, you can now do that
by using this option without parameters or with "all" (when the config
option status.submodulesummary is set, using "all" will also suppress the
output of the submodule summary).
A new function handle_ignore_submodules_arg() is introduced to parse this
option new to "git status" in a single location, as "git diff" already
knew it.
