The 'git gui' has a number of options that can be specified using the
options dialog. Sometimes it is convenient to be able to specify these
from the command line, therefor document these options.

Before this patch in "git-add.txt" and "git-format-patch.txt", the
commands used in the examples were "git-CMD" instead of "git CMD".
This patch fixes that.
In "git-pull.txt" only the last example had the code sample in an
asciidoc "Listing Block", and in the other two files, none.
This patch fixes that by putting all code samples in listing
blocks.

Honour the setgid and umask when re-creating the objects directory
at the destination.
cpio in copy-pass mode aims to copy file permissions which causes this
problem and cannot be disabled. Be explicit by copying the directory
structure first, honouring the permissions at the destination, then copy
the files with 0444 permissions. This also avoids bugs in some versions
of cpio.

If a branch named "bisect" or "new-bisect" already was created in the

the branch without a warning. Now if the branch "bisect" or

git bisect start fails with an appropriate error message. Additionally,
if checking out a new bisect state fails due to a merge problem, git
bisect cleans up the temporary branch "new-bisect".

This fixes the remainder of the issues where the test script itself is at
fault for failing when the git checkout path contains whitespace or other
shell metacharacters.
The majority of git svn tests used the idiom
test_expect_success "title" "test script using $svnrepo"
These were changed to have the test script in single-quotes:
test_expect_success "title" 'test script using "$svnrepo"'
which unfortunately makes the patch appear larger than it really is.
One consequence of this change is that in the verbose test output the
value of $svnrepo (and in some cases other variables, too) is no
longer expanded, i.e. previously we saw
* expecting success:
test script using /path/to/git/t/trash/svnrepo
but now it is:
* expecting success:
test script using "$svnrepo"

This fixes the git-send-perl semantics for launching an editor when
$GIT_EDITOR (or friends) contains shell metacharacters to match
launch_editor() in builtin-tag.c. If we use the current approach
(sh -c '$0 $@' "$EDITOR" files ...), we see it fails when $EDITOR has
shell metacharacters:
$ sh -x -c '$0 $@' "$VISUAL" "foo"
+ "$FAKE_EDITOR" foo
"$FAKE_EDITOR": 1: "$FAKE_EDITOR": not found
Whereas builtin-tag.c will invoke sh -c "$EDITOR \"$@\"".
Thus, this patch changes git-send-email.perl to use the same method as the
C utilities, and additionally updates t/t9001-send-email.sh to test for
this bug.

If an element of the configuration key name other than the first or last
contains a backslash, it is not escaped on output, but is treated as an

948dd34 (diff-index: careful when inspecting work tree items, 2008-03-30)
made the work tree check careful not to be fooled by a new directory that
exists at a place the index expects a blob. For such a change to be a
typechange from blob to submodule, the new directory has to be a
repository.
However, if the index expects a submodule there, we should not insist the
work tree entity to be a repository --- a simple directory that is not a
full fledged repository (even an empty directory would do) should be
considered an unmodified subproject, because that is how a superproject
with a submodule is checked out sparsely by default.
This makes the function check_work_tree_entity() even more careful not to
report a submodule that is not checked out as removed. It fixes the
recently added test in t4027.

When calling pretty_print_commit, there is an implicit
assumption that passing in a non-NULL "subject" variable
for oneline or email formats means that the output is part
of a subject and therefore "subject" to rfc2047 encoding.

In many cases, the warning ends up as clutter, because the
diff is being done "behind the scenes" from the user (e.g.,
when generating a commit diffstat), and whether we show
renames or not is not particularly interesting to the user.
However, in the case of a merge (which is what motivated the
warning in the first place), it is a useful hint as to why a
merge with renames might have failed.
This patch makes the warning optional based on the code
calling into diffcore. We default to not showing the
warning, but turn it on for merges.

The current rename limit default of 100 was arbitrarily
chosen. Testing[1] has shown that on modern hardware, a
limit of 200 adds about a second of computation time, and a
limit of 500 adds about 5 seconds of computation time.
This patch bumps the default limit to 200 for viewing diffs,
and to 500 for performing a merge. The limit for generating
git-status templates is set independently; we bump it up to
200 here, as well, to match the diff limit.

The point of rename limiting is to bound the amount of time
we spend figuring out inexact renames. Currently we use a
single value, diff.renamelimit, for all situations. However,
it is probably the case that a user is willing to spend more
time finding renames during a merge than they are while
looking at git-log.
This patch provides a way of setting those values separately
(though for backwards compatibility, merge still falls back
on the diff renamelimit).

When using git-cvsimport, the author is inferred from the cvs commit,
e.g. cvs commit logname is foobaruser, then the author field in git
results in:
Author: foobaruser <foobaruser>
Which is not perfect, but perfectly acceptable given the circumstances.
The default git-svn import however, results in:
Author: foobaruser <foobaruser@acf43c95-373e-0410-b603-e72c3f656dc1>
When using mixes of imports, from CVS and SVN into the same git
repository, you'd like to harmonise the imports to the format cvsimport
uses.
git-svn supports an experimental option --use-log-author which currently
results in the same logentry as without that option when no From: or
Signed-off-by: is found in the logentry ($email currently ends up empty,
and hence is generated again).
This patches harmonises the result with cvsimport, and makes
git-svn --use-log-author produce:
Author: foobaruser <foobaruser>
