gitattributes.txt says, of the crlf attribute:
Set::
Setting the `crlf` attribute on a path is meant to mark
the path as a "text" file. 'core.autocrlf' conversion
takes place without guessing the content type by
inspection.
That is to say that the crlf attribute does not force the file to have
CRLF line endings, instead it removes the autocrlf guesswork and forces
the file to be treated as text. Then, whatever line ending is defined
by the autocrlf setting is applied.
However, that is not what convert.c was doing. The conversion to CRLF
was being skipped in crlf_to_worktree() when the following condition was
true:
action == CRLF_GUESS && auto_crlf <= 0
That is to say conversion took place when not in guess mode (crlf attribute
not specified) or core.autocrlf set to true. This was wrong. It meant
that the crlf attribute being on for a given file _forced_ CRLF
conversion, when actually it should force the file to be treated as
text, and converted accordingly. The real test should simply be
auto_crlf <= 0
That is to say, if core.autocrlf is falsei (or input), conversion from
LF to CRLF is never done. When core.autocrlf is true, conversion from
LF to CRLF is done only when in CRLF_GUESS (and the guess is "text"), or
CRLF_TEXT mode.
Similarly for crlf_to_worktree(), if core.autocrlf is false, no conversion
should _ever_ take place. In reality it was only not taking place if
core.autocrlf was false _and_ the crlf attribute was unspecified.

As noted by Johan Herland, git-archive is a kind of checkout and needs
to apply any checkout filters that might be configured.
This patch adds the convenience function convert_sha1_file which returns
a buffer containing the object's contents, after converting, if necessary
(i.e. it's a combination of read_sha1_file and convert_to_working_tree).
Direct calls to read_sha1_file in git-archive are then replaced by calls
to convert_sha1_file.
Since convert_sha1_file expects its path argument to be NUL-terminated --
a convention it inherits from convert_to_working_tree -- the patch also
changes the path handling in archive-tar.c to always NUL-terminate the
string. It used to solely rely on the len field of struct strbuf before.
archive-zip.c already NUL-terminates the path and thus needs no such
change.

Helping a couple people set up public repos recently, I wanted to point
them at this piece of the user manual, but found it wasn't as helpful as
it could be:
- It starts with a big explanation of why you'd want a public
repository, not necessary in their case since they already knew
why they wanted that. So, separate that out.
- It skimps on some of the git-daemon details, and puts the http
export information first. Fix that.
Also group all the public repo subsections into a single section, and do
some miscellaneous related editing.

Move howto/using-topic-branches into the user manual as an example for
the "sharing development" chapter. While we're at it, remove some
discussion that's covered in earlier chapters, modernize somewhat (use
separate-heads setup, remotes, replace "whatchanged" by "log", etc.),
and replace syntax we'd need to explain by syntax we've already covered
(e.g. old..new instead of new ^old).

There seems to be a perception that the howto's are bit-rotting a
little. The manual might be a more visible location for some of them,

For now, incorporate much of it verbatim. Later we may want to update

Revise and expand some of the definitions in the glossary, based in part
on a recent thread started by a user looking for help with some of the
jargon. I've borrowed some of the language from Linus's email on that
thread. (I'm assuming standing permission to plagiarize Linus's
email....)
Also start making a few changes to mitigate the appearance of
"circularity" mentioned in that thread:
- feel free to use somewhat longer definitions and to explain
some things more than once instead of relying purely on
cross-references
- don't use cross-references when they're redundant: eliminate
self-references and repeated references to the same entry.

Petr Baudis pointed out the main git.git repository's Makefile dies
now if git-gui 0.7.0-rc1 or later is being used and TCL_PATH was not
set to a working tclsh program path. This breaks people who may have
a working build configuration today and suddenly upgrade to the latest
git release.
The tclIndex is required for git-gui to load its associated lib files,
but using the Tcl auto_load procedure to source only the files we need
is a performance optimization. We can emulate the auto_load by just
source'ing every file in that directory, assuming we source class.tcl
first to initialize our crude class system.

When using git name-rev on my kernel tree I triggered a malloc()
corruption warning from glibc.
apw@pinky$ git log --pretty=one $N/base.. | git name-rev --stdin
*** glibc detected *** malloc(): memory corruption: 0x0bff8950 ***
Aborted
This comes from name_rev() which is building the name of the revision
in a malloc'd string, which it sprintf's into:
char *new_name = xmalloc(len + 8);
[...]
sprintf(new_name, "%.*s~%d^%d", len, tip_name,
generation, parent_number);
This allocation is only sufficient if the generation number is
less than 5 digits, in my case generation was 13432. In reality
parent_number can be up to 16 so that also can require two digits,
reducing us to 3 digits before we are at risk of blowing this
allocation.
This patch introduces a decimal_length() which approximates the
number of digits a type may hold, it produces the following:
Type Longest Value Len Est
---- ------------- --- ---
unsigned char 256 3 4
unsigned short 65536 5 6
unsigned long 4294967296 10 11
unsigned long long 18446744073709551616 20 21
char -128 4 4
short -32768 6 6
long -2147483648 11 11

$Id$ is present already in SVN and CVS; it would mean that people
converting their existing repositories won't have to make any changes to
the source files should they want to make use of the ident attribute.
Given that it's a feature that's meant to calm those very people, it
seems obtuse to make them edit every file just to make use of it.
I think that bzr uses $Id$; Mercurial has examples hooks for $Id$;
monotone has $Id$ on its wishlist. I can't think of a good reason not
to stick with the de-facto standard and call ours $Id$ instead of
$ident$.
