Within the help message of 'git add -i', the 'diff' command uses one
tab character and blanks to create the space between the name and the
description while the others use blanks only. So if the tab size is
not at 4 characters, this description will not be in range.
Replace the tab character with blanks.

The documentation for git blame used vertical bars for optional
arguments to -M and -C, which is unusual and potentially confusing.
Since most man pages use brackets for optional items, and that's
consistent with how we document the same options for git diff and
friends, use brackets here, too.

Not just . and .., but any path that begins with dot is not copied
when copying the template directory to a new repository. You can
customize the template directory, copying some dotfiles might make
sense, but it's actually a good thing not to, because you would not
want to have your git directory copied in every git directory that
is created should you decide to put your template directory under
version control, for example. Plus, it might be used as a feature
by people who would want to exclude some files.

"ls-files" run with pathspec has been micro-optimized to avoid
having to memmove(3) unnecessary bytes.
* rs/ls-files-partial-optim:
ls-files: move only kept cache entries in prune_cache()
ls-files: pass prefix length explicitly to prune_cache()
A new coccinelle rule that catches a check of !pointer before the
pointer is free(3)d, which most likely is a bug.
* rs/cocci-check-free-only-null:
cocci: detect useless free(3) calls
When "git p4" imports changelist that removes paths, it failed to
convert pathnames when the p4 used encoding different from the one
used on the Git side. This has been corrected.
* ls/p4-path-encoding:
git-p4: fix git-p4.pathEncoding for removed files
The current code wants to record an error condition from
either ferror() or fclose(), but makes sure that we always
call both functions. So it can't use logical-OR "||", which
would short-circuit when ferror() is true. Instead, it uses
bitwise-OR "|" to evaluate both functions and set one or
more bits in the "err" flag if they reported a failure.
Unlike logical-OR, though, bitwise-OR does not introduce a
sequence point, and the order of evaluation for its operands
is unspecified. So a compiler would be free to generate code
which calls fclose() first, and then ferror() on the
now-freed filehandle.
There's no indication that this has happened in practice,
but let's write it out in a way that follows the standard.

It is often useful to break a commit into multiple parts that are more
logical separations. This can be tricky to learn how to do without the
brute-force method if re-writing code or commit messages from scratch.
Add a section to the git-reset documentation which shows an example
process for how to use git add -p and git commit -c HEAD@{1} to
interactively break a commit apart and re-use the original commit
message as a starting point when making the new commit message.

The documentation explained what "git stash" does to the working
tree (after stashing away the local changes) in terms of "reset
--hard", which was exposing an unnecessary implementation detail.
* tg/stash-doc-cleanup:
Documentation/stash: remove mention of git reset --hard
The push-options given via the "--push-options" option were not
passed through to external remote helpers such as "smart HTTP" that
are invoked via the transport helper.
* sb/push-options-via-transport:
push options: pass push options to the transport helper
More command line completion (in contrib/) for recent additions.
* cw/completion:
completion: recognize more long-options
completion: teach remote subcommands to complete options
completion: teach replace to complete options
completion: teach ls-remote to complete options
completion: improve bash completion for git-add
completion: add subcommand completion for rerere
completion: teach submodule subcommands to complete options
When removing the hack for isatty(), we actually removed more than just
an isatty() hack: we removed the hack where internal data structures of
the MSVC runtime are modified in order to redirect stdout/stderr.
Instead of using that hack (that does not work with newer versions of
the runtime, anyway), we replaced it by reopening the respective file
descriptors.
What we forgot was to mark stderr as unbuffered again.
