Add an err argument to log_ref_setup that can explain the reason
for a failure. This then eliminates the need to manage errno through
this function since we can just add strerror(errno) to the err string
when meaningful. No callers relied on errno from this function for
anything else than the error message.
Also add err arguments to private functions write_ref_to_lockfile,
log_ref_write_1, commit_ref_update. This again eliminates the need to
manage errno in these functions.
Some error messages are slightly reordered.

There was a dead code that used to handle "git pull --tags" and
show special-cased error message, which was made irrelevant when
the semantics of the option changed back in Git 1.9 days.

Recent "git prune" traverses young unreachable objects to safekeep
old objects in the reachability chain from them, which sometimes
caused error messages that are unnecessarily alarming.

"git rebase -i" fired post-rewrite hook when it shouldn't (namely,
when it was told to stop sequencing with 'exec' insn).

rebase -i: fix post-rewrite hook with failed exec command

The improved ARRAY_SIZE macro uses BARF_UNLESS_AN_ARRAY which expands
to a valid check for recent gcc versions and to 0 for older gcc
versions but is not defined on non-gcc builds.
Non-gcc builds need this macro to expand to 0 as well. The current outer
test (defined(__GNUC__) && (__GNUC__ >= 3)) is a strictly weaker
condition than the inner test (GIT_GNUC_PREREQ(3, 1)) so we can omit the
outer test and cause the BARF_UNLESS_AN_ARRAY macro to be defined
correctly on non-gcc builds as well as gcc builds with older versions.

"git for-each-ref" reported "missing object" for 0{40} when it

Traditionally, external low-level 3-way merge drivers are expected
to produce their results based solely on the contents of the three

"git pull" has become more aware of the options meant for
underlying "git fetch" and then learned to use parse-options
parser.

"git apply" cannot diagnose a patch corruption when the breakage is
to mark the length of the hunk shorter than it really is on the
hunk header line "@@ -l,k +m,n @@"; one special case it could is
when the hunk becomes no-op (e.g. k == n == 2 for two-line context
patch output), and it learned how to do so.
* jc/apply-reject-noop-hunk:
apply: reject a hunk that does not do anything
This reverts commit d95d728aba.
It turns out that many other commands that need to interact with the
result of running diff-files and diff-index, e.g. "git apply", "git
rm", etc., need to be adjusted to the new world order it brings in.
For example, it would break this sequence to correct a whitespace
breakage in the parts you changed:
git add -N file
git diff --cached file | git apply --cached --whitespace=fix
git checkout file
In the old world order, "diff" showed a patch to modify an existing
empty file by adding its full contents, and "apply" updated the
index by modifying the existing empty blob (which is what an
Intent-to-Add entry records in the index) with that patch.
In the new world order, "diff" shows a patch to create a new file
with its full contents, but because "apply" thinks that the i-t-a
entry already exists in the index, it refused to accept a creation.
Adjusting "apply" to this new world order is easy, but we need to
assess the extent of the damage to the rest of the system the new
world order brought in before going forward and adjust them all,
after which we can resurrect the commit being reverted here.
