In the documentation of diff-tree, it is stated that the -l option
"prevents rename/copy detection from running if the number of
rename/copy targets exceeds the specified number". The documentation
does not mention any special handling for the number 0, but the
implementation before commit 9f7e4bfa3b ("diff: remove silent clamp of
renameLimit", 2017-11-13) treated 0 as a special value indicating that
the rename limit is to be a very large number instead.
The commit 9f7e4bfa3b changed that behavior, treating 0 as 0. Revert
this behavior to what it was previously. This allows existing scripts
and tools that use "-l0" to continue working. The alternative (to have
"-l0" suppress rename detection) is probably much less useful, since
users can just refrain from specifying -M and/or -C to have the same
effect.

Commit 78a6766802 ("Integrate hash algorithm support with repo setup",
2017-11-12) added a 'const struct git_hash_algo *hash_algo' field to the
repository structure, without modifying the initializer of the 'the_repo'
variable. This does not actually introduce a bug, since the '0' initializer
for the 'ignore_env:1' bit-field is interpreted as a NULL pointer (hence
the warning), and the final field (now with no initializer) receives a
default '0'.

@{-N} is a syntax for the N-th last "checkout" and not the N-th
last "branch". Therefore, in some cases using `git checkout @{-$N}`
DOES lead to a "detached HEAD" state. This can also be ensured by
the commit message of 75d6e552a (Documentation: @{-N} can refer to
a commit, 2014-01-19) which clearly specifies how @{-N} can be used
to refer not only to a branch but also to a commit.
Correct the misleading sentence which states that @{-N} doesn't
detach HEAD.

If you come to the documentation thinking "I do not want Git
to take any locks for my background processes", then you may
easily run across "--no-optional-locks" in git.txt.
But it's quite reasonable to hit a specific instance of the
problem: you have "git status" running in the background,
and you notice that it causes lock contention with other
processes. So you look in git-status.txt to see if there is
a way to disable it, but there's no mention of the flag.
Let's add a short note mentioning that status does indeed
touch the index (and why), with a pointer to the global
option. That can point users in the right direction and help
them make a more informed decision about what they're
disabling.

When a text file had been commited with CRLF and the file is commited
again, the CRLF are kept if .gitattributs has "text=auto".
This is done by analyzing the content of the blob stored in the index:
If a '\r' is found, Git assumes that the blob was commited with CRLF.
The simple search for a '\r' does not always work as expected:
A file is encoded in UTF-16 with CRLF and commited. Git treats it as binary.
Now the content is converted into UTF-8. At the next commit Git treats the
file as text, the CRLF should be converted into LF, but isn't.
Replace has_cr_in_index() with has_crlf_in_index(). When no '\r' is found,
0 is returned directly, this is the most common case.
If a '\r' is found, the content is analyzed more deeply.

In commit ae352c7f3 (merge-recursive.c: fix case-changing merge bug,
2014-05-01), it was observed that removing files could be problematic on
case insensitive file systems, because we could end up removing files
that differed in case only rather than deleting the intended file --
something that happened when files were renamed on one branch in a way
that differed only in case. To avoid that problem, that commit added
logic to avoid removing files other than the one intended, rejecting the
removal if the files differed only in case.
Unfortunately, the logic it used didn't fully implement that condition as
stated above; instead it merely checked that a case-insensitive lookup of
the file that was requested resulted in finding a file in the index at
stage 0, not that the file found in the index actually differed in case.
Alternatively, one could view the implementation as making an implicit
assumption that the file we actually wanted to remove would never appear
in the index with a stage of 0, and thus that if we found a file with our
lookup, that it had to be a different file (but different in case only).
The net result of this implementation is that it can ignore more requests
than it should, leaving a file around in the working copy that should
have been removed. Make sure that the file found in the index actually
differs in case before silently ignoring the request to remove the file.

Currently 'git worktree add <path> <branch>', errors out when 'branch'
is not a local branch. It has no additional dwim'ing features that one
might expect.
Make it behave more like 'git checkout <branch>' when the branch doesn't
exist locally, but a remote tracking branch uniquely matches the desired
branch name, i.e. create a new branch from the remote tracking branch
and set the upstream to the remote tracking branch.
As 'git worktree add' currently just dies in this situation, there are
no backwards compatibility worries when introducing this feature.
