The previous code was detecting the presence of "--" by looking only at
argument 1. As a result, "git checkout foo bar --" was interpreted as an
ambiguous file/revision list, and errored out with:
error: pathspec 'foo' did not match any file(s) known to git.
error: pathspec 'bar' did not match any file(s) known to git.
error: pathspec '--' did not match any file(s) known to git.
This patch fixes it by walking through the argument list to find the
"--", and now complains about the number of references given.

The "--" notation disambiguates files and branches, but as a side-effect
of the previous implementation, also disabled the branch auto-creation
when $branch does not exist.
A possible scenario is then:
git checkout $branch
=> fails if $branch is both a ref and a file, and suggests --
git checkout $branch --
=> refuses to create the $branch
This patch allows the second form to create $branch, and since the -- is
provided, it does not look for file named $branch.

This file isn't really harmful, but isn't useful either, and can create
minor annoyance for the user:
* It's confusing, as the presence of a *.pid file often implies that a
process is currently running. A user running "ls .git/" and finding
this file may incorrectly guess that a "git gc" is currently running.
* Leaving this file means that a "git gc" in an already gc-ed repo is
no-longer a no-op. A user running "git gc" in a set of repositories,
and then synchronizing this set (e.g. rsync -av, unison, ...) will see
all the gc.pid files as changed, which creates useless noise.
This patch unlinks the file after the garbage collection is done, so that
gc.pid is actually present only during execution.
Future versions of Git may want to use the information left in the gc.pid
file (e.g. for policies like "don't attempt to run a gc if one has
already been ran less than X hours ago"). If so, this patch can safely be
reverted. For now, let's not bother the users.

We usually refrain from making this kind of a tree-wide change in

In commit 0656781fa "git mv" learned to update the submodule path in the
.gitmodules file when moving a submodule in the work tree. But since that
commit update_path_in_gitmodules() gets called no matter if we moved a
submodule or a regular file, which is wrong and leads to a bogus warning
when moving a regular file in a repo containing a .gitmodules file:
warning: Could not find section in .gitmodules where path=<filename>
Fix that by only calling update_path_in_gitmodules() when moving a
submodule. To achieve that, we introduce the special SUBMODULE_WITH_GITDIR
define to distinguish the cases where we also have to connect work tree
and git directory from those where we only need to update the .gitmodules
setting.
A test for submodules using a .git directory together with a .gitmodules
file has been added to t7001. Even though newer git versions will always
use a gitfile when cloning submodules, repositories cloned with older git
versions will still use this layout.

Currently, we only try converting argv[1] from "-" into "@{-1}". This
means we do not notice "-" when used together with an option. Worse,
when "git cherry-pick" is run with no options, we segfault. Fix this
by doing the substitution after we have checked that there is
something in argv to cherry-pick and know any remaining options are
meant for the revision-listing machinery.
This still does not handle "-" after the first non-cherry-pick option.
For example,
git cherry-pick foo~2 - bar~5
and
git cherry-pick --no-merges -
will still dump usage.

Most of git's traversals are robust against minor breakages
in commit data. For example, "git log" will still output an
entry for a commit that has a broken encoding or missing
author, and will not abort the whole operation.
Shortlog, on the other hand, will die as soon as it sees a
commit without an author, meaning that a repository with
a broken commit cannot get any shortlog output at all.
Let's downgrade this fatal error to a warning, and continue
the operation.
We simply ignore the commit and do not count it in the total
(since we do not have any author under which to file it).
Alternatively, we could output some kind of "<empty>" record
to collect these bogus commits. It is probably not worth it,
though; we have already warned to stderr, so the user is
aware that such bogosities exist, and any placeholder we
came up with would either be syntactically invalid, or would
potentially conflict with real data.

A clone will always create a transport struct, whether we
are cloning locally or using an actual protocol. In the
local case, we only use the transport to get the list of
refs, and then transfer the objects out-of-band.
However, there are many options that we do not bother
setting up in the local case. For the most part, these are
noops, because they only affect the object-fetching stage
(e.g., the --depth option). However, some options do have a
visible impact. For example, giving the path to upload-pack
via "-u" does not currently work for a local clone, even
though we need upload-pack to get the ref list.
We can just drop the conditional entirely and set these
options for both local and non-local clones. Rather than
keep track of which options impact the object versus the ref
fetching stage, we can simply let the noops be noops (and
the cost of setting the options in the first place is not
high).
The one exception is that we also check that the transport
provides both a "get_refs_list" and a "fetch" method. We
will now be checking the former for both cases (which is
good, since a transport that cannot fetch refs would not
work for a local clone), and we tweak the conditional to
check for a "fetch" only when we are non-local.

When stderr does not point to a tty, we typically suppress
"we are now in this phase" progress reporting (e.g., we ask
the server not to send us "counting objects" and the like).
The new "checking connectivity" message is in the same vein,
and should be suppressed. Since clone relies on the
transport code to make the decision, we can simply sneak a
peek at the "progress" field of the transport struct. That
properly takes into account both the verbosity and progress
options we were given, as well as the result of isatty().
Note that we do not set up that progress flag for a local
clone, as we do not fetch using the transport at all. That's
acceptable here, though, because we also do not perform a
connectivity check in that case.

Putting messages like "Cloning into.." and "done" on stdout
is un-Unix and uselessly clutters the stdout channel. Send
them to stderr.
We have to tweak two tests to accommodate this:
1. t5601 checks for doubled output due to forking, and
doesn't actually care where the output goes; adjust it
to check stderr.
2. t5702 is trying to test whether progress output was
sent to stderr, but naively does so by checking
whether stderr produced any output. Instead, have it
look for "%", a token found in progress output but not
elsewhere (and which lets us avoid hard-coding the
progress text in the test).
This should not regress any scripts that try to parse the
current output, as the output is already internationalized
and therefore unstable.

The motivation of this patch is to get closer to a goal of being
able to have a core subset of git functionality built in to git.
That would mean
* people on Windows could get a copy of at least the core parts
of Git without having to install a Unix-style shell
* people using git in on servers with chrooted environments
do not need to worry about standard tools lacking for shell
scripts.
This patch is meant to be mostly a literal translation of the

more library facilities, but this patch is meant to be as close to a

When using tab-completion, a directory path will often end with a
trailing slash which currently confuses "git reset" when dealing with
submodules. Now that we have parse_pathspec we can easily handle this
by simply adding the PATHSPEC_STRIP_SUBMODULE_SLASH_CHEAP flag.
To do this, we need to move the read_cache() call before the
parse_pathspec() call. All of the existing paths through cmd_reset()
that do not die early already call read_cache() at some point, so there
is no performance impact to doing this in the common case.

check-ignore currently shows how .gitignore rules would treat untracked
paths. Tracked paths do not generate useful output. This prevents
debugging of why a path became tracked unexpectedly unless that path is
first removed from the index with `git rm --cached <path>`.
The option --no-index tells the command to bypass the check for the
path being in the index and hence allows tracked paths to be checked
too.
Whilst this behaviour deviates from the characteristics of `git add` and
`git status` its use case is unlikely to cause any user confusion.
Test scripts are augmented to check this option against the standard
ignores to ensure correct behaviour.

This turns the template COMMIT_EDITMSG from e.g

# Untracked files:
# (use "git add <file>..." to include in what will be committed)

Most status hints were written to be accurate when running "git status"
before running a commit. Many of them are not applicable when the commit
has already been started, and should not be shown in COMMIT_EDITMSG. The
most obvious are hints advising to run "git commit",
"git rebase/am/cherry-pick --continue", which do not make sense when the
command has already been run.
Other messages become slightly inaccurate (e.g. hint to use "git add" to
add untracked files), as the suggested commands are not immediately
applicable during the editing of COMMIT_EDITMSG, but would be applicable
if the commit is aborted. These messages are both potentially helpful and
slightly misleading. This patch chose to remove them too, to avoid
introducing too much complexity in the status code.
