Commit a908047 taught format-patch the "--from" option,
which places the author ident into an in-body from header,
and uses the committer ident in the rfc822 from header. The
documentation claims that it will omit the in-body header
when it is the same as the rfc822 header, but the code never
implemented that behavior.
This patch completes the feature by comparing the two idents
and doing nothing when they are the same (this is the same
as simply omitting the in-body header, as the two are by
definition indistinguishable in this case). This makes it
reasonable to turn on "--from" all the time (if it matches
your particular workflow), rather than only using it when
exporting other people's patches.

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.

When two or more branches point at the same commit and HEAD is
pointing at one of them, without the symref extension, there is no
way to remotely tell which one of these branches HEAD points at.
The test in question attempts to make sure that this situation is
diagnosed and results in a failure.
However, even if there _were_ a way to reliably tell which branch
the HEAD points at, "set-head --auto" would fail if there is no
remote tracking branch. Make sure that this test does not fail
for that "wrong" reason.

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.
