By default, git-archive takes attributes from the tree being archived.
People however often wonder why their attempts to affect the way how the
command archives their tree by changing .gitattributes in their work tree
fail.
Add a bit of explanatory note to tell them how to achieve what they want
to do.

It's hard to see the "how to commit" part of this message,
which users may want to cut and paste. On top of that,
having it in paragraph form means that a really long commit
name may cause ugly wrapping. Let's make it prettier, like:

mark the corrected paths with 'git add <paths>' or 'git rm <paths>'

This gets rid of the fixed-size buffer and an unchecked
sprintf. That sprintf is actually OK as the only
variable-sized thing put in it is an abbreviated sha1, which
is bounded at 40 characters. However, the next patch will
change that to something unbounded.
Note that this function now returns an allocated buffer
instead of a static one; however, it doesn't matter as the
only caller exits immediately.

When 921177f (Documentation: improve "add", "pull" and "format-patch"
examples, 2008-05-07) converted this from enumeration header to displayed
text, it failed to adjust for the AsciiDoc's rule to quote backslashes.
In displayed text, backslash is shown verbatim, while in enumeration
header, we need to double it.
We have a similar construct in git-rm.txt documentation, and need to be
careful when somebody wants to update it to match the style of the "git
add" example.

Currently the only way to "quote" a grep pattern that might
begin with a dash is to use "git grep -e pattern". This
works just fine, and is also the way right way to do it on
many traditional grep implemenations.
Some people prefer to use "git grep -- pattern", however, as
"--" is the usual "end of options" marker, and at least GNU
grep and Solaris 10 grep support this. This patch makes that
syntax work.
There is a slight behavior change, in that "git grep -- $X"
used to be interpreted as "grep for -- in $X". However, that
usage is questionable. "--" is usually the end-of-options
marker, so "git grep" was unlike many other greps in
treating it as a literal pattern (e.g., both GNU grep and
Solaris 10 grep will treat "grep --" as missing a pattern).

The code to guess an output archive's format consumed any --format
options and built a new one. Jonathan noticed that it does so in an
unsafe way, risking to overflow the static buffer fmt_opt.
Change the code to keep the existing --format options intact and to only
add a new one if a format could be guessed based on the output file name.
The new option is added as the first one, allowing the existing ones to
overrule it, i.e. explicit --format options given on the command line win
over format guesses, as before.
To simplify the code further, format_from_name() is changed to return the
full --format option, thus no potentially dangerous sprintf() calls are
needed any more.

This function did not work on strings that were not NUL-terminated. It
reads through a length-bounded string, searching for characters in need of
quoting. After we find one, we output the quoted character, then advance
our pointer to find the next one. However, we never decremented the
length, meaning we ended up looking at whatever random junk was stored
after the string.
This bug was not found by the existing tests because most code paths feed
a NUL-terminated string. The notable exception is a directory name being
fed by ls-tree.

This patch converts the setenv() calls in path.c and setup.c. After
the call, git grep with a pager works again in bare repos.
It leaves the setenv(GIT_DIR_ENVIRONMENT, ...) calls in git.c alone, as
they respond to command line switches that emulate the effect of setting
the environment variable directly.
The remaining site in environment.c is in set_git_dir() and is left
alone, too, of course. Finally, builtin-init-db.c is left changed
because the repo is still being carefully constructed when the
environment variable is set.
This fixes git shortlog when run inside a git directory, which had been
broken by abe549e1.

Revert the previous attempt to skip this test on platforms where we
currently cannot determine the system load. We want to make sure that
the max-load-limit codepath produces results cleanly, when gitweb is
updated and becomes capable of reading the load average by some other
method.
The code to check for load returns 0 if it doesn't know how to find
load. It also checks to see if the current load is higher than the
max load. So to force the script to quit early by setting the maxload
variable negative which should work for systems where we can detect
load (which should be a positive number) and systems where we can't
(where detected load is 0)
