There is already excellent documentation for this facility in
git-submodule.1, but it is not so discoverable.
Relative paths in .gitmodules can be useful for serving the
same repository over multiple protocols, for example.

73e25e7c (git --paginate: do not commit pager choice too early,
2010-06-26) failed to take some cases into account.
1b. Builtins that do not use RUN_SETUP (like git config) do
not find GIT_DIR set correctly when the pager is launched
from run_builtin(). So the core.pager configuration is
not honored from subdirectories of the toplevel for them.
4a. External git commands (like git request-pull) relied on the
early pager launch to take care of handling the -p option.
Ever since 73e25e7c, they do not honor the -p option at all.
4b. Commands invoked through ! aliases (like ls) were also relying
on the early pager launch.
Fix (4a) by launching the pager (if requested) before running such a
“dashed external”. For simplicity, this still does not search for a
.git directory before running the external command; when run from a
subdirectory of the toplevel, therefore, the “[core] pager”
configuration is still not honored.
Fix (4b) by launching pager if requested before carrying out such an
alias. Actually doing this has no effect, since the pager (if any)
would have already been launched in a failed attempt to try a
dashed external first. The choice-of-pager-not-honored-from-
subdirectory bug still applies here, too.
(1b) is not a regression. There is no need to fix it yet.

15b4f7a (merge-tree: use ll_merge() not xdl_merge(), 2010-01-16)
introduced a regression to merge-tree to cause it to segfault when merging
files which existed in one branch, but not in the other or in the
merge-base. This was caused by referencing entry->path at a time when
entry was known to be possibly-NULL.
To correct the problem, we save the path of the entry we came in with,
as the path should be the same among all the stages no matter which
sides are involved in the merge.

The original declaration was int, which seems to cause trouble on my
machine. It causes spurious "filesystem boundary" errors when running
the testsuite. The cause seems to be
$ stat -c%d .
2147549952
which is too large for a 32-bit int type.
Using the correct type, dev_t, solves the issue. (Because I'm
paranoid and forgetful, I checked -- yes, Unix v7 had dev_t.)
Other uses of st_dev seem to be reasonably safe. fill_stat_cache_info
truncates it to an 'unsigned int', but that value seems to be used only
to validate the cache, and only if USE_STDEV is defined.

We instead showed a combined diff that explains one of the randomly
chosen merge-base as if it were the result of merging all the other
merge bases and two tips given, which made no sense at all.
An alternative is to simply fail such a request, telling the user that
there are criss-cross merges, but it wouldn't be so helpful.

t0005: work around strange $? in ksh when program terminated by a signal
This script is part of the second batch of tests, from the same day
the test infrastructure was added to git. Update it to use a more
modern style in the spirit of v1.6.4-rc0~45^2~2 (2009-05-22).
In particular:
- Put setup code inside test assertions, to avoid unexpected
breakages and avoid stray output without -v (as t/README
recommends); and
- Put the test title on the same line as the "test_expect_success",
and end the line with a single-quote to begin the body of the test
which is one multi-line string.

When --graph is in effect, the line-prefix typically has colored graph
line segments and ends with reset. The color sequence "set" given to
this function is for showing the metainfo part of the patch text and
(1) it should not be applied to the graph lines, and (2) it will be
reset at the end of line_prefix so it won't be in effect anyway.

In 456156d a shortcut to priming the index tree reference was
introduced, but the justification for it was completely bogus.
"read-tree -m A B" is to take the index (and the working tree)
that is largely based on (but does not have to match exactly) A
and update it to B, while carrying the local change that does
not overlap the difference between A and B, so there is no reason
to expect that the resulting index should match the tree B.

This will reduce considerably the common confusion where people miss the
`--follow' option, and wonder why `-M'/`-C' is not working.
* Move the diff options include to after the log-specific flags, and add
a "Common diff options" subtitle before them. (These options apply
only when patches are shown, which is not a common use case among
newbies, so having them first is confusing.)
* Move the `--follow' description to the top of the listed options. The
options before that seem less important: `--full-diff' applies only
when patches are shown, `--source' and `--decorate' are less useful
with many common commit specifications.
* Clarify that `--follow' works only for a single path argument.

When test #2 fails, the cwd is project/, causing all the
remaining tests in the same script to get confused and fail.
So in the spirit of v1.7.1.1~53^2~10 (t5550-http-fetch: Use subshell
for repository operations, 2010-04-17), use a subshell for svn
working copy operations. This way, the cwd will reliably return
to the top of the trash directory and later tests can still be run
when a command has failed.

With a .gitconfig like this:

if stdout is a terminal, the grep machinery will output the color
