For everything other than using "git config" to read or write a
git-style config file that isn't the current repo's config file,
GIT_CONFIG was actively detrimental. Rather than argue over which
programs are important enough to have work anyway, just fix all of
them at the root.
Also removes GIT_LOCAL_CONFIG, which would only be useful for programs
that do want to use global git-specific config, but not the repo's own
git-specific config, and want to use some other, presumably
git-specific config. Despite being documented, I can't find any sign that
it was ever used.

The new function reduce_heads() is given a list of commits, and removes
ones that can be reached from other commits in the list. It is useful for
reducing the commits randomly thrown at the git-merge command and remove
redundant commits that the user shouldn't have given to it.
The implementation uses the get_merge_bases_many() introduced in the
previous commit. If the merge base between one commit taken from the list
and the remaining commits is the commit itself, that means the commit is
reachable from some of the other commits.

This introduces a new function get_merge_bases_many() which is a natural
extension of two commit merge base computation. It is given one commit
(one) and a set of other commits (twos), and computes the merge base of
one and a merge across other commits.
This is mostly useful to figure out the common ancestor when iterating
over heads during an octopus merge. When making an octopus between
commits A, B, C and D, we first merge tree of A and B, and then try to
merge C with it. If we were making pairwise merge, we would be recording
the tree resulting from the merge between A and B as a commit, say M, and
then the next round we will be computing the merge base between M and C.
o---C...*
/ .
o---B...M
/ .
o---o---A
But during an octopus merge, we actually do not create a commit M. In
order to figure out that the common ancestor to use for this merge,
instead of computing the merge base between C and M, we can call
merge_bases_many() with one set to C and twos containing A and B.

There are basically two categories of update failures for
local refs:
1. problems outside of git, like disk full, bad
permissions, etc.
2. D/F conflicts on tracking branch ref names
In either case, there should already have been an error
message. In case '1', hopefully enough information has
already been given that the user can fix it. In the case of
'2', we can hint that the user can clean up their tracking
branch area by using 'git remote prune'.
Note that we don't actually know _which_ case we have, so
the user will receive the hint in case 1, as well. In this
case the suggestion won't do any good, but hopefully the
user is smart enough to figure out that it's just a hint.

This makes the default expiration period for the reflog that implements

When "git reflog expire" expires reflog entry for $ref, the expiry timers
are taken from the first <pattern> that matches $ref (and if there isn't
the global default value is used).
For example, you could:
[gc "refs/stash"]
reflogexpire = never
reflogexpireunreachable = never
[gc "refs/remotes/*"]
reflogexpire = 7 days
reflogexpireunreachable = 3 days
[gc]

Commit ffe256f9ba ("git-svn: Speed up fetch")
introduced changes that create a temporary file for each object fetched by
svn. These files should be deleted automatically, but perl apparently
doesn't do this until the process exits (or perhaps when its garbage
collector runs).
This means that on a large fetch, especially with lots of branches, we
sometimes fill up /tmp completely, which prevents the next temp file from
being written completely. This is aggravated by the fact that a new temp
file is created for each updated file, even if that update produces a file
identical to one already in git. Thus, it can happen even if there's lots
of disk space to store the finished repository.
We weren't adequately checking for write errors, so this would result in an
invalid file getting committed, which caused git-svn to fail later with an
invalid checksum.
This patch adds a check to syswrite() so similar problems don't lead to
corruption in the future. It also unlink()'s each temp file explicitly
when we're done with it, so the disk doesn't need to fill up.

This patch cuts off redundant dependencies by:

2. moving quote_path_fully from environment.c to quote.c to make the
later self sufficient;
3. moving make_absolute_path into a new separate file.

Before this patch, something like "git help tutorial" did not work,
people had to use "git help gittutorial" which is not very intuitive.
This patch uses the "is_git_command" function to test early if the
argument passed to "git help" is a git command, and if this is not the
case then we prefix the argument with "git" instead of "git-".
This way, things like "git help tutorial" or "git help glossary" will
work fine.

When working with a lot of people who backport patches all day long, every
once in a while I get a patch that modifies the same file more than once
inside the same patch. git-apply either fails if the second change relies
on the first change or silently drops the first change if the second change
is independent.
The silent part is the scary scenario for us. Also this behaviour is
different from the patch-utils.
I have modified git-apply to create a table of the filenames of files it
modifies such that if a later patch chunk modifies a file in the table it
will buffer the previously changed file instead of reading the original file
from disk.
Logic has been put in to handle creations/deletions/renames/copies. All the
relevant tests of git-apply succeed.
A new test has been added to cover the cases I addressed.
The fix is relatively straight-forward.

Previously, if there was an error while storing a local
tracking ref, the low-level functions would report an error,
but fetch's status output wouldn't indicate any problem.
E.g., imagine you have an old "refs/remotes/origin/foo/bar" but
upstream has deleted "foo/bar" in favor of a new branch
"foo". You would get output like this:
error: there are still refs under 'refs/remotes/origin/foo'
From $url_of_repo
* [new branch] foo -> origin/foo
With this patch, the output takes into account the status of
updating the local ref:
error: there are still refs under 'refs/remotes/origin/foo'
From $url_of_repo
! [new branch] foo -> origin/foo (unable to update local ref)
