We already have "--date=raw", which is a Unix epoch
timestamp plus a contextual timezone (either the author's or
the local). But one may not care about the timezone and just
want the epoch timestamp by itself. It's not hard to parse
the two apart, but if you are using a pretty-print format,
you may want git to show the "finished" form that the user
will see.
We can accomodate this by adding a new date format, "unix",
which is basically "raw" without the timezone.

The "raw" format shows a Unix epoch timestamp, but with a
timezone tacked on. The timestamp is not _in_ that zone, but
it is extra information about the time (by default, the zone
the author was in).
The documentation claims that "raw-local" does not work. It
does, but the end result is rather subtle. Let's describe it
in better detail, and test to make sure it works (namely,
the epoch time doesn't change, but the zone does).
While we are rewording the documentation in this area, let's
not use the phrase "does not work" for the remaining option,
"--date=relative". It's vague; do we accept it or not? We do
accept it, but it has no effect (which is a reasonable
outcome). We should also refer to the option not as
"--relative" (which is the historical synonym, and does not
take "-local" at all), but as "--date=relative".

Our usual style in the test scripts is to indent here
documents with tabs, and use "<<-" to strip the tabs. The
result is easier to read.
This old test script did not do so in its inception, and
further tests added onto it followed the local style. Let's
bring it in line with our usual style.
Some of the tests actually care quite a bit about
whitespace, but none of them do so at the beginning of the
line (because they use things like qz_to_tab_space to avoid
depending on the literal whitespace), so we can do a fairly
mechanical conversion.
Most of the here-docs also use interpolation, so they have
been left as "<<-EOF". In a few cases, though, where
interpolation was not in use, I've converted them to
"<<-\EOF" to match our usual "don't interpolate unless you
need to" style.

The test currently does something like:
do_one() &&
do_two() &&
test_expect_success ...
We generally avoid performing actions at the top-level of
the script (outside of a test_expect block) for two reasons:
1. The test harness is not checking and reporting if they
fail.
2. Their output is not handled correctly (not hidden by
default, nor shown with "-v").
Using &&-chains seems like it should help with (1), but it
doesn't. If either of the commands fails, we simply skip
running the follow-on test entirely, and the test harness
has no idea.
We can fix this by pushing that setup into its own block.
It _could_ go into the following test block, but since the
result in this case is used by multiple tests, it's more
clear to mark it explicitly as a distinct setup step.

Last October, we had to change this code to run `git merge-recursive`
in a child process: git-am wants to print some helpful advice when the
merge failed, but the code in question was not prepared to return, it
die()d instead.
We are finally at a point when the code *is* prepared to return errors,
and can avoid the child process again.
This reverts commit c63d4b2 (am -3: do not let failed merge from
completing the error codepath, 2015-10-09), with the necessary changes
to adjust for the fact that Git's source code changed in the meantime
(such as: using OIDs instead of hashes in the recursive merge, and a
removed gender bias).
Note: the code now calls merge_recursive_generic() again. Unlike
merge_trees() and merge_recursive(), this function returns 0 upon success,
as most of Git's functions. Therefore, the error value -1 naturally is
handled correctly, and we do not have to take care of it specifically.

The recursive merge machinery is supposed to be a library function, i.e.
it should return an error when it fails. Originally the functions were
part of the builtin "merge-recursive", though, where it was simpler to
call die() and be done with error handling.
The existing callers were already prepared to detect negative return
values to indicate errors and to behave as previously: exit with code 128
(which is the same thing that die() does, after printing the message).

We are about to libify the recursive merge machinery, where we only
die() in case of a bug or memory contention. To that end, we must heed
negative return values as indicating errors.
This requires our functions to be careful to pass through error
conditions in call chains, and for quite a few functions this means
that they have to return values to begin with.
The next step will be to convert the places where we currently die() to
return negative values (read: -1) instead.
Note that we ignore errors reported by make_room_for_path(), consistent
with the previous behavior (update_file_flags() used the return value of
make_room_for_path() only to indicate an early return, but not a fatal
error): if the error is really a fatal error, we will notice later; If
not, it was not that serious a problem to begin with. (Witnesses in
favor of this reasoning are t4151-am-abort and t7610-mergetool, which
would start failing if we stopped on errors reported by
make_room_for_path()).
Also note: while this patch makes the code slightly less readable in
update_file_flags() (we introduce a new "goto free_buf;" instead of
an explicit "free(buf); return;"), it is a preparatory change for
the next patch where we will convert all of the die() calls in the same
function to go through the free_buf return path instead.

It is technically allowed, as per C89, for functions' return type to
be complete structs (i.e. *not* just pointers to structs).
However, it was just an oversight of this developer when converting
Python code to C code in 6d297f8 (Status update on merge-recursive in
C, 2006-07-08) which introduced such a return type.
Besides, by converting this construct to pass in the struct, we can now
start returning a value that can indicate errors in future patches. This
will help the current effort to libify merge-recursive.c.

Previously, callers of merge_trees() or merge_recursive() expected that
code to die() with an error message. This used to be okay because we
called those commands from scripts, and had a chance to print out a
message in case the command failed fatally (read: with exit code 128).
As scripting incurs its own set of problems (portability, speed,
idiosyncrasies of different shells, limited data structures leading to
inefficient code), we are converting more and more of these scripts into
builtins, using library functions directly.
We already tried to use merge_recursive() directly in the builtin
git-am, for example. Unfortunately, we had to roll it back temporarily
because some of the code in merge-recursive.c still deemed it okay to
call die(), when the builtin am code really wanted to print out a useful
advice after the merge failed fatally. In the next commits, we want to
fix that.
The code touched by this commit expected merge_trees() to die() with
some useful message when there is an error condition, but merge_trees()
is going to be improved by converting all die() calls to return error()
instead (i.e. return value -1 after printing out the message as before),
so that the caller can react more flexibly.
This is a step to prepare for the version of merge_trees() that no
longer dies, even if we just imitate the previous behavior by calling
exit(128): this is what callers of e.g. `git merge` have come to expect.
Note that the callers of the sequencer (revert and cherry-pick) already
fail fast even for the return value -1; The only difference is that they
now get a chance to say "<command> failed".
A caller of merge_trees() might want handle error messages themselves
(or even suppress them). As this patch is already complex enough, we
leave that change for a later patch.

It can be puzzling to see that was_tracked() asks to get an index entry
by name, but does not take a negative return value for an answer.
The reason we have to do this is that cache_name_pos() only looks for
entries in stage 0, even if nobody asked for any stage in particular.
Let's rewrite the logic a little bit, to handle the easy case early: if
cache_name_pos() returned a non-negative position, we know it is a match,
and we do not even have to compare the name again (cache_name_pos() did
that for us already). We can say right away: yes, this file was tracked.
Only if there was no exact match do we need to look harder for any
matching entry in stage 2.

While working on the patch series that avoids die()ing in recursive
merges, the issue came up that bug reports (i.e. die("BUG: ...")
constructs) should never be translated, as the target audience is the
Git developer community, not necessarily the current user, and hence
a translated message would make it *harder* to address the problem.
So let's stop translating the obvious ones. As it is really, really

function, the intention was to allow the users of grep API to having
to fiddle only with .pattern_type_option (which can be set to "fixed",
"basic", "extended", and "pcre"), and then immediately before compiling
the pattern strings for use, call grep_commit_pattern_type() to have
it prepare various bits in the grep_opt structure (like .fixed,
.regflags, etc.).
However, grep_set_pattern_type_option() helper function the grep API

function shouldn't have been made callable by the users of the API.
Later when the grep API was used in revision traversal machinery,
the caller then mistakenly started calling the function around
34a4ae55 (log --grep: use the same helper to set -E/-F options as
"git grep", 2012-10-03), instead of setting the .pattern_type_option
field and letting the grep_commit_pattern_type() to take care of the

This caused an unnecessary bug that made a configured
grep.patternType take precedence over the command line options
(e.g. --basic-regexp, --fixed-strings) in "git log" family of
