The result from "git diff" that compares two blobs, e.g. "git diff
$commit1:$path $commit2:$path", used to be shown with the full
object name as given on the command line, but it is more natural to
use the $path in the output and use it to look up .gitattributes.
* jk/diff-blob:
diff: use blob path for blob/file diffs

"git clean -d" used to clean directories that has ignored files,
even though the command should not lose ignored ones without "-x".
"git status --ignored" did not list ignored and untracked files

* sl/clean-d-ignored-fix:
clean: teach clean -d to preserve ignored paths
dir: expose cmp_name() and check_contains()
dir: hide untracked contents of untracked dirs

A recent update to t5545-push-options.sh started skipping all the
tests in the script when a web server testing is disabled or
unavailable, not just the ones that require a web server. Non HTTP
tests have been salvaged to always run in this script.
* jc/skip-test-in-the-middle:
t5545: enhance test coverage when no http server is installed
test: allow skipping the remainder
The "run-command" API implementation has been made more robust
against dead-locking in a threaded environment.
* bw/forking-and-threading:
usage.c: drop set_error_handle()

run-command: handle dup2 and close errors in child
run-command: eliminate calls to error handling functions in child
run-command: don't die in child when duping /dev/null
run-command: prepare child environment before forking
string-list: add string_list_remove function
run-command: use the async-signal-safe execv instead of execvp
run-command: prepare command before forking

t5550: use write_script to generate post-update hook
Introduce the BUG() macro to improve die("BUG: ...").

usage: add NORETURN to BUG() function definitions
config: complain about --local outside of a git repo
setup_git_env: convert die("BUG") to BUG()

"git checkout --recurse-submodules" did not quite work with a
submodule that itself has submodules.
* sb/checkout-recurse-submodules:
submodule: properly recurse for read-tree and checkout
submodule: avoid auto-discovery in new working tree manipulator code
submodule_move_head: reuse child_process structure for futher commands
Many open source projects use github.com for their contribution process.
Although we mirror the Git core repository to github.com [1] we do not
use any other github.com service. This is unknown/unexpected to a
number of (potential) contributors and consequently they create Pull
Requests against our mirror with their contributions. These Pull
Requests become stale. This is frustrating to them as they think we
ignore them and it is also unsatisfactory for us as we miss potential
code improvements and/or new contributors.
GitHub contribution guidelines and a GitHub Pull Request template that
is visible to every Pull Request creator can be configured with special
files in a Git repository [2]. Let's make use of this!

Update sha1dc from the latest version by the upstream
maintainer[1].
See commit a0103914c2 ("sha1dc: update from upstream", 2017-05-20) for
the latest update. That update was done sans some whitespace changes
by upstream, which is why the diff here isn't the same as the upstream
cc46554..e139984.
It also brings in a change[2] upstream made which should hopefully
address the breakage in 2.13.1 on Cygwin, see [3]. Cygwin defines both
_BIG_ENDIAN and _LITTLE_ENDIAN.
Adam Dinwoodie reports on the mailing list that that upstream commit
fixes the issue on Cygwin[4].

The upstream sha1dc code indents some lines with spaces.
While this doesn't match Git's coding guidelines, it's better
to leave this imported code untouched than to try to make it
match our style. However, we can use .gitattributes to tell
"diff --check" and "git am" not to bother us about it.

Commit a1283866b (t5313: test bounds-checks of
corrupted/malicious pack/idx files, 2016-02-25) added a test
that requires our corrupted pack index to have two objects.
The entry for the first one remains untouched, but we
corrupt the entry for second one. Since the index stores the
entries in sha1-sorted order, this means that the test must
make sure that the sha1 of the object we expect to be
corrupted ("$object") sorts after the other placeholder
object.
That commit used the HEAD commit as the placeholder, but the
script never calls test_tick. That means that the commit
object (and thus its sha1) depends on the timestamp when the
test script is run. This usually works in practice, because
the sha1 of $object starts with "fff". The commit object
will sort after that only 1 in 4096 times, but when it does
the test will fail.
One obvious solution is to add the test_tick call to get a
deterministic commit sha1. But since we're relying on the
sort order for the test to function, let's make that very
explicit by just generating a second blob with a known sha1.

A test allowed both "git push" and "git receive-pack" on the other
end write their traces into the same file. This is OK on platforms
that allows atomically appending to a file opened with O_APPEND,
but on other platforms led to a mangled output, causing
intermittent test failures. This has been fixed by disabling
traces from "receive-pack" in the test.

"git interpret-trailers", when used as GIT_EDITOR for "git commit

i.e. at the end of the "diff" output. The command has been

the buffer---the real trailer block should appear just before it.
