When git spawns a remote helper program (like git-remote-http),
the last thing we do before closing the pipe to the child
process is to send a blank line, telling the helper that we
are done issuing commands. However, the helper may already
have exited, in which case the parent git process will
receive SIGPIPE and die.
In particular, this can happen with the remote-curl helper
when it encounters errors during a push. The helper reports
individual errors for each ref back to git-push, and then
exits with a non-zero exit code. Depending on the exact
timing of the write, the parent process may or may not
receive SIGPIPE.
This causes intermittent test failure in t5541.8, and is a
side effect of 5238cbf (remote-curl: Fix push status report
when all branches fail). Before that commit, remote-curl
would not send the final blank line to indicate that the
list of status lines was complete; it would just exit,
closing the pipe. The parent git-push would notice the
closed pipe while reading the status report and exit
immediately itself, propagating the failing exit code. But
post-5238cbf, remote-curl completes the status list before
exiting, git-push actually runs to completion, and then it
tries to cleanly disconnect the helper, leading to the
SIGPIPE race above.
This patch drops all error-checking when sending the final
"we are about to hang up" blank line to helpers. There is
nothing useful for the parent process to do about errors at
that point anyway, and certainly failing to send our "we are
done with commands" line to a helper that has already exited
is not a problem.

The first part of the bundle header contains the boundary commits, and
could be approximated by
# v2 git bundle
$(git rev-list --pretty=oneline --boundary <ARGS> | grep ^-)
git-bundle actually spawns exactly this rev-list invocation, and does
the grepping internally.
There was a subtle bug in the latter step: it used fgets() with a
1024-byte buffer. If the user has sufficiently long subjects (e.g.,
by not adhering to the git oneline-subject convention in the first
place), the 'oneline' format can easily overflow the buffer. fgets()
then returns the rest of the line in the next call(s). If one of
these remaining parts started with '-', git-bundle would mistakenly
insert it into the bundle thinking it was a boundary commit.
Fix it by using strbuf_getwholeline() instead, which handles arbitrary
line lengths correctly.
Note that on the receiving side in parse_bundle_header() we were
already using strbuf_getwholeline_fd(), so that part is safe.

When falling back to 3-way merge, we run "git apply" to synthesize the
fake ancestor tree by parsing the incoming patch, and another "git apply"
to apply the patch to the fake ancestor tree. Both invocation need to

with non-standard src/dst prefix.

The comment even said that it should eventually go there. While at
it, match the calling convention and name of the function to the

When pushing groups of refs to a remote, there is no simple way to remove
old refs that still exist at the remote that is no longer updated from us.
This will allow us to remove such refs from the remote.
With this change, running this command
$ git push --prune remote refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/laptop/*
removes refs/remotes/laptop/foo from the remote if we do not have branch
"foo" locally anymore.

The function match_name_with_pattern() is called twice, once to see if a
pattern matches with the name, and again to learn what the matched pattern
maps the name to. Since check_pattern_match() is only used in one place,
we can just reorganize it to make a single call and fetch the values at
the same time.
This changes the meaning of check_pattern_match() that used to check which
pattern in the array of refspecs matched the given ref, to return the name
of the remote ref the given ref is mapped to.
Rename it to get_ref_match() which actually describes more closely what
it's actually doing now.

The --ff-only option was not described next to --ff and --no-ff options in
"git merge" documentation, even though these three are logically together,
describing how to choose one of three possibilities.
Also the description for '--ff' and '--no-ff' discussed what '--ff' means,
and mentioned '--no-ff' as if it were a side-note to '--ff'.
Make them into three top-level entries and list them together. This way,
it would be more clear that the user can choose one from these three.

When cherry-pick fails it offers a helpful hint about how to
proceed. The hint tells the user how to do the cleanup
needed by the conflicted cherry-pick and finish the job after
conflict resolution. In case of cherry-pick --no-commit, the
hint goes too far. It tells the user to finish up with
'git commit'. That is not what this git-cherry-pick was
trying to do in the first place.
Restrict the hint in case of --no-commit to avoid giving this
extra advice.
Also, add a test verifying the reduced hint for the --no-commit
version of cherry-pick.

open_or_add_dir checks to see if the directory already exists or not.
If it already exists and is not a directory, then we fail. However,
open_or_add_dir did not previously account for the possibility that the
path did exist as a file, but is deleted in the current commit.
In order to prevent this legitimate case from failing, open_or_add_dir
needs to know what files are deleted in the current commit.
Unfortunately that information has to be plumbed through a couple of
layers.

Use numerical form of time zone to replace alphabetic time zone
abbreviation generated by "%Z". "%Z" is not portable and contain
ambiguity for many areas. For example, CST could be "Central
Standard Time" (GMT-0600) and "China Standard Time" (GMT+0800).
Alphabetic time zone abbreviation is meant for human readability,
not for specifying a time zone for machines.
Failed case can be illustrated like this in linux shell:
> echo $TZ
Asia/Taipei
> date +%Z
CST
> env TZ=`date +%Z` date
Mon Dec 19 06:03:04 CST 2011

If a filter is not defined or if it fails, git should behave as if the
filter is a no-op passthru.
However, if the filter exits before reading all the content, depending on
the timing, git could be killed with SIGPIPE when it tries to write to the
pipe connected to the filter.
Ignore SIGPIPE while processing the filter to give us a chance to check
the return value from a failed write, in order to detect and act on this
mode of failure in a more controlled way.

If the argument for `__git_ps1` begins with a dash, `printf` tries to
interpret it as an option which results in an error message.
The problem is solved by adding '--' before the argument to tell
`printf` to not interpret the following argument as an option.
Adding '--' directly to the argument does not help because the argument
is enclosed by double quotes.
