Update draft release notes for 1.6.0.1
Add hints to revert documentation about other ways to undo changes
Install templates with the user and group of the installing personality
"git-merge": allow fast-forwarding in a stat-dirty tree
completion: find out supported merge strategies correctly
decorate: allow const objects to be decorated
for-each-ref: cope with tags with incomplete lines
diff --check: do not get confused by new blank lines in the middle
remote.c: remove useless if-before-free test
mailinfo: avoid violating strbuf assertion
git format-patch: avoid underrun when format.headers is empty or all NLs
Based on its name, people may read the 'git revert' documentation when
they want to undo local changes, especially people who have used other
SCM's. 'git revert' may not be what they had in mind, but git
provides several other ways to undo changes to files. We can help
them by pointing them towards the git commands that do what they might
want to do.

If 'make install' was run with sufficient privileges, then the installed
templates, which are copied using 'tar', would receive the user and group
of whoever built git. This instructs 'tar' to ignore the user and group
that are recorded in the archive.

"git-merge" is a binary executable these days, and looking for assignment
to $all_strategies variable with grep/sed does not work well.
When asked for an unknown strategy, pre-1.6.0 and post-1.6.0 "git merge"
commands respectively say:
$ $HOME/git-snap-v1.5.6.5/bin/git merge -s help
available strategies are: recur recursive octopus resolve stupid ours subtree
$ $HOME/git-snap-v1.6.0/bin/git merge -s help
Could not find merge strategy 'help'.
Available strategies are: recursive octopus resolve ours subtree.
both on their standard error stream. We can use this to learn what
strategies are supported.
The sed script is written in such a way that it catches both old and new
message styles ("Available" vs "available", and the full stop at the end).
It also allows future versions of "git merge" to line-wrap the list of
strategies, and add extra comments, like this:
$ $HOME/git-snap-v1.6.1/bin/git merge -s help
Could not find merge strategy 'help'.
Available strategies are: blame recursive octopus resolve ours
subtree.
Also you have custom strategies: theirs
Make sure you spell strategy names correctly.

The code remembered that the last diff output it saw was an empty line,
and tried to reset that state whenever it sees a context line, a non-blank
new line, or a new hunk. However, this codepath asks the underlying diff
engine to feed diff without any context, and the "just saw an empty line"
state was not reset if you added a new blank line in the last hunk of your
patch, even if it is not the last line of the file.

In handle_from, we calculate the end boundary of a section
to remove from a strbuf using strcspn like this:
el = strcspn(buf, set_of_end_boundaries);
strbuf_remove(&sb, start, el + 1);
This works fine if "el" is the offset of the boundary
character, meaning we remove up to and including that
character. But if the end boundary didn't match (that is, we
hit the end of the string as the boundary instead) then we
want just "el". Asking for "el+1" caught an out-of-bounds
assertion in the strbuf library.
This manifested itself when we got a 'From' header that had
just an email address with nothing else in it (the end of
the string was the end of the address, rather than, e.g., a
trailing '>' character), causing git-mailinfo to barf.

GNU diff's --suppress-blank-empty option makes it so that diff no
longer outputs trailing white space unless the input data has it.
With this option, empty context lines are now empty also in diff -u output.
Before, they would have a single trailing space.

Some platforms do not have st_blocks member in "struct stat"; mingw
already emulates it by rounding it up to closest 512-byte blocks (even
though it could overcount when a file has holes).
The reason to use the member is only to figure out how many kilobytes the
files occupy on-disk, so give a helper function in git-compat-util.h to
compute this value.

Recent changes to is_multipart_boundary() caused git-mailinfo to segfault.
The reason was after handling the end of the boundary the code tried to look
for another boundary. Because the boundary list was empty, dereferencing
the pointer to the top of the boundary caused the program to go boom.
The fix is to check to see if the list is empty and if so go on its merry
way instead of looking for another boundary.
I also fixed a couple of increments and decrements that didn't look correct
relating to content_top.
The boundary test case was updated to catch future problems like this again.

Move almost all code out of the child_handler() into check_dead_children().
The fact that systemcalls get interrupted by signals allows us to
make the SIGCHLD signal handler almost a no-op by simply running
check_dead_children() right before waiting on poll().
In case some systems do not interrupt systemcalls upon signal receipt,
all zombies will eventually be collected before the next poll() cycle.

Most systems (e.g. Linux gcc) use "-Wl,-rpath," to pass to the linker the
runtime dynamic library paths. Some other systems (e.g. Sun, some BSD) use
"-R" etc. This patch adds tests in configure for the three most common
switches (to my best knowledge) which should cover all current platforms
where Git is used.

Current Makefile does not allow config.mak to override CC_LD_DYNPATH; it

CC_LD_DYNPATH differently, we should just allow it.

The date/time parsing code was confused if the input time HH:MM:SS is
followed by fractional seconds. Since we do not record anything finer
grained than seconds, we could just drop fractional part, but there is a
twist.
We have taught people that not just spaces but dot can be used as word
separators when spelling things like:
$ git log --since 2.days
$ git show @{12:34:56.7.days.ago}
and we shouldn't mistake "7" in the latter example as a fraction and
discard it.
The rules are:
- valid days of month/mday are always single or double digits.
- valid years are either two or four digits
No, we don't support the year 600 _anyway_, since our encoding is based
on the UNIX epoch, and the day we worry about the year 10,000 is far
away and we can raise the limit to five digits when we get closer.
- Other numbers (eg "600 days ago") can have any number of digits, but
they cannot start with a zero. Again, the only exception is for
two-digit numbers, since that is fairly common for dates ("Dec 01" is
not unheard of)
So that means that any milli- or micro-second would be thrown out just
because the number of digits shows that it cannot be an interesting date.
A milli- or micro-second can obviously be a perfectly fine number
according to the rules above, as long as it doesn't start with a '0'. So
if we have
12:34:56.123
then that '123' gets parsed as a number, and we remember it. But because
it's bigger than 31, we'll never use it as such _unless_ there is
something after it to trigger that use.
So you can say "12:34:56.123.days.ago", and because of the "days", that
123 will actually be meaninful now.

submodule foreach <command-list> will execute the list of commands in
each currently checked out submodule directory. The list of commands
is arbitrary as long as it is acceptable to sh. The variables '$path'
and '$sha1' are availble to the command-list, defining the submodule
path relative to the superproject and the submodules's commitID as
recorded in the superproject (this may be different than HEAD in the
submodule).
This utility is inspired by a number of threads on the mailing list
looking for ways to better integrate submodules in a tree and work
with them as a unit. This could include fetching a new branch in each
from a given source, or possibly checking out a given named branch in
each. Currently, there is no consensus as to what additional commands
should be implemented in the porcelain, requiring all users whose needs
exceed that of git-submodule to do their own scripting. The foreach
command is intended to support such scripting, and in particular does
no error checking and produces no output, thus allowing end users
complete control over any information printed out and over what
constitutes an error. The processing does terminate if the command-list
returns an error, but processing can easily be forced for all
submodules be terminating the list with ';true'.
