Allow the creation of a ref (e.g. stash) with a reflog already in
place. For most refs (e.g. those under refs/heads), this happens
automatically, but for others, we need this option.
Currently, git does this by pre-creating the reflog, but alternate ref
backends might store reflogs somewhere other than .git/logs. Code
that now directly manipulates .git/logs should instead use git
plumbing commands.
I also added --create-reflog to git tag, just for completeness.
In a moment, we will use this argument to make git stash work with
alternate ref backends.

Update to the "linked checkout" in 2.5.0-rc1.
Instead of "checkout --to" that does not do what "checkout"
normally does, move the functionality to "git worktree add".
As this makes the end-user experience of the "worktree add" more or
less complete, I am tempted to say we should cook the other topic
that removes the internal "new-worktree-mode" hack from "checkout"
a bit longer in 'next', and release 2.5 final without that one.

A line in the input to "rev-parse --parseopt" describes an option by
listing a short and/or long name, optional flags [*=?!], argument hint,
and then whitespace and help string.
We did not allow any of the [*=?!] characters in the argument hints.
The following input
pair=key=value equals sign in the hint
used to generate a help line like this:
--pair=key <value> equals sign in the hint
and used to expect "pair=key" as the argument name.
That is not very helpful as we generally do not want any of the [*=?!]
characters in the argument names. But we do want to use at least the
equals sign in the argument hints.
Update the parser to make long argument names stop at the first [*=?!]
character.
Add test case with equals sign in the argument hint and update the test
to perform all the operations in test_expect_success matching the
t/README requirements and allowing commands like
./t1502-rev-parse-parseopt.sh --run=1-2
to stop at the test case 2 without any further modification of the test
state area.

When trying to switch to a different branch, that happens to be

give up the other safety measures (like protecting the local changes
that overlap the difference between the branches) while defeating
the "no two checkouts of the same branch" safety.

Accept a list of emails separated by commas in flags --cc, --to and
--bcc. Multiple addresses can already be given by using these options
multiple times, but it is more convenient to allow cutting-and-pasting
a list of addresses from the header of an existing e-mail message,
which already lists them as comma-separated list, as a value to a
single parameter.
The following format can now be used:
$ git send-email --to='Jane <jdoe@example.com>, mike@example.com'

As a safeguard, checking out a branch already checked out by a different
worktree is disallowed. This behavior can be overridden with
--ignore-other-worktrees, however, this option is neither obvious nor
particularly discoverable. As a common safeguard override, --force is
more likely to come to mind. Therefore, overload it to also suppress the
check for a branch already checked out elsewhere.

As a "distributed" VCS, git should better define the encodings of its core
textual data structures, in particular those that are part of the network
protocol.
That git is encoding agnostic is only really true for blob objects. E.g.
the 'non-NUL bytes' requirement of tree and commit objects excludes
UTF-16/32, and the special meaning of '/' in the index file as well as
space and linefeed in commit objects eliminates EBCDIC and other non-ASCII
encodings.
Git expects bytes < 0x80 to be pure ASCII, thus CJK encodings that partly
overlap with the ASCII range are problematic as well. E.g. fmt_ident()
removes trailing 0x5C from user names on the assumption that it is ASCII
'\'. However, there are over 200 GBK double byte codes that end in 0x5C.
UTF-8 as default encoding on Linux and respective path translations in the
Mac and Windows versions have established UTF-8 NFC as de-facto standard
for path names.
Update the documentation in i18n.txt to reflect the current status-quo.
