While looking for a way to expand the URL of a remote
that uses a 'url.<name>.insteadOf' config option I stumbled
over the undocumented '--get-url' option of 'git ls-remote'.
This adds some minimum documentation for that option.
And while at it, also add that option to the '-h' output.

After running rev-list --boundary to retrieve the list of boundary
commits, "git bundle create" runs its own revision walk. If in this
stage git encounters an unfamiliar option, it writes a message with an
unbalanced quotation mark:
error: unrecognized argument: --foo'
Drop the stray quote to match the "unrecognized argument: %s" message
used elsewhere and save translators some work.
This is mostly a futureproofing measure: for now, the "rev-list
--boundary" command catches most strange arguments on its own and the
above message is not seen unless you try something esoteric like "git
bundle create test.bundle --header HEAD".

Previously GIT_EDITOR was not listed in git(1) "Environment Variables" section,
which could be very confusing to users. Include it in "other" subsection along
with a link to git-var(1), since that is the page that fully describes all
places where editor can be set and also their preference order.
Also, git-var(1) did not say that hardcoded fallback 'vi' may have been changed
at build time. A user could be puzzled if 'nano' pops up even when none of the
mentioned environment vars or config.editor are set. Clarify this.
Ideally, the build system should be changed to reflect the chosen fallback
editor when creating the man pages. Not sure if that is even possible though.

Even though 1.7.9.x series does not open the editor by default
when merging in general, it does do so in one occassion: when
merging an annotated tag. And worse yet, there is no good way
for older scripts to decline this.

Git 1.7.8 introduced an object and history re-validation step after
"fetch" or "push" causes new history to be added to a receiving
repository. This is to protect a malicious server or pushing client from
corrupting the repository by taking advantage of an existing corrupt
object that is unconnected to existing history.
But this check is way over-pessimistic. During "fetch" or "receive-pack"
(the server side of "push"), unpack-objects and index-pack already
validate individual objects that are received, and the only thing we would
want to catch are corrupted objects that already happen to exist in our
repository but are not referenced from our refs. Such objects must have
been written by an earlier run of our codepaths that write out loose
objects or packfiles, and they must have done the validation of individual
objects when they did so. The only thing left to worry about is the
connectivity integrity, which can be checked with "rev-list --objects",
which is much cheaper. We have been paying the 5x to 8x runtime overhead
the --verify-objects often adds for no real gain.
Revert check_everything_connected() not to use this over-pessimistic
check.
Credit goes to Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy, who originally identified the
performance regression and endured multiple rounds of reviews to fix it.

A section in a config file with a missing "]" reports the next line

This happens because the error is not detected until the end of the

line number by one for these cases.

As the fast-import manual explains:
The value of <path> must be in canonical form. That is it must
not:
. contain an empty directory component (e.g. foo//bar is invalid),
. end with a directory separator (e.g. foo/ is invalid),
. start with a directory separator (e.g. /foo is invalid),
Unfortunately the "ls" command accepts these invalid syntaxes and
responds by declaring that the indicated path is missing. This is too
subtle and causes importers to silently misbehave; better to error out
so the operator knows what's happening.
The C, R, and M commands already error out for such paths.

When the chosen directory has changed since it was last written to
pack, "tree_content_get" makes a deep copy of its content to scribble
on while computing the tree name, which we forgot to free.
This leak has been present since the 'ls' command was introduced in
v1.7.5-rc0~3^2~33 (fast-import: add 'ls' command, 2010-12-02).

OS X's sed and grep would complain with (respectively)
sed: 1: "/^-/{p;q}": extra characters at the end of q command
grep: Regular expression too big
For sed, use an explicit ; to terminate the q command.
For grep, spell the "40 hex digits" explicitly in the regex, which
should be safe as other tests already use this and we haven't got
breakage reports on OS X about them.
