We do not have to guess how common the mistake the change targets is
when describing it. Such an argument may be good while proposing a
change, but does not quite belong in the record of what has already
happened, i.e. a release note.

This reverts commit 2a0cafd464,
as it expects a working "a ref deletion must produce a single
transaction, not one for loose and another for packed" topic,
which we do not have.
With the addition of the safe.directory in 8959555ce
(setup_git_directory(): add an owner check for the top-level directory,
2022-03-02) released in v2.35.2, we are receiving feedback from a
variety of users about the feature.
Some users have a very large list of shared repositories and find it
cumbersome to add this config for every one of them.
In a more difficult case, certain workflows involve running Git commands
within containers. The container boundary prevents any global or system
config from communicating `safe.directory` values from the host into the
container. Further, the container almost always runs as a different user
than the owner of the directory in the host.
To simplify the reactions necessary for these users, extend the
definition of the safe.directory config value to include a possible '*'
value. This value implies that all directories are safe, providing a
single setting to opt-out of this protection.
Note that an empty assignment of safe.directory clears all previous
values, and this is already the case with the "if (!value || !*value)"
condition.

It seems that nothing is ever checking to make sure the safe directories
in the configs actually have the key safe.directory, so some unrelated
config that has a value with a certain directory would also make it a
safe directory.

It is difficult to change the ownership on a directory in our test
suite, so insert a new GIT_TEST_ASSUME_DIFFERENT_OWNER environment
variable to trick Git into thinking we are in a differently-owned
directory. This allows us to test that the config is parsed correctly.

As the address sanitizer checks for a superset of the issues detected
by setting MALLOC_CHECK_ (which tries to detect things like double
frees and off-by-one errors) there is no need to set the latter when
compiling with -fsanitize=address.
This fixes a regression introduced by 131b94a10a ("test-lib.sh: Use
GLIBC_TUNABLES instead of MALLOC_CHECK_ on glibc >= 2.34", 2022-03-04)
which causes all the tests to fail with the message
ASan runtime does not come first in initial library list;
you should either link runtime to your application or
manually preload it with LD_PRELOAD.
when git is compiled with SANITIZE=address on systems with glibc >=
2.34. I have tested SANITIZE=leak and SANITIZE=undefined and they do
not suffer from this regression so the fix in this patch should be
sufficient.

The "FUNNYNAMES" test prerequisite passes on Cygwin, as the Cygwin
file system interface has a workaround for the underlying operating
system's lack of support for tabs, newlines or quotes. However, it does
not add support for backslash, which is treated as a directory
separator, meaning one of the tests added by 48803821b1 ("completion:
handle unusual characters for sparse-checkout", 2022-02-07) will fail on
Cygwin.
To avoid this failure while still getting maximal test coverage, split
that test into two: test handling of paths that include tabs on anything
that has the FUNNYNAMES prerequisite, but skip testing handling of paths
that include backslashes unless both FUNNYNAMES is set and the system is
not Cygwin.
It might be nice to have more granularity than "FUNNYNAMES" and its
sibling "FUNNIERNAMES" provide, so that tests could be run based on
specific individual characters supported by the file system being
tested, but that seems like it would make the prerequisite checks in
this area much more verbose for very little gain.

The warning about converting line endings is extremely confusing. Its
two sentences each use the word "will" without specifying a timeframe,
which makes it sound like both sentences are referring to the same
timeframe. On top of that, it uses the term "original line endings"
without saying whether "original" means LF or CRLF.
Rephrase the warning to be clear about when the line endings will be
changed and what they will be changed to.
On a platform whose native line endings are not CRLF (e.g. Linux), the
"git add" step in the following sequence triggers the warning in
question:
$ git config core.autocrlf true
$ echo 'Hello world!' >hello.txt
$ git add hello.txt
warning: LF will be replaced by CRLF in hello.txt
The file will have its original line endings in your working directory

The ls-tree documentation had never been updated after it learned to
interact with submodules to explicitly mention them. The initial
support was added in f35a6d3bce (Teach core object handling functions
about gitlinks, 2007-04-09). E.g. the discussion of --long added in
f35a6d3bce (Teach core object handling functions about gitlinks,
2007-04-09) didn't explicitly mention them.
But this documentation added in 455923e0a1 (ls-tree: introduce
"--format" option, 2022-03-23) had no such excuse, and was actively
misleading by providing an exhaustive but incomplete list of object
types we'd emit.

The externalConsole=true setting is broken for many users (launching the
debugger with such setting results in VS Code waiting forever without
actually starting the debugger). Also, this setting is a matter of user
preference, and is arguably better set in a "launch" section in the
user-wide settings.json than hardcoded in our script. Remove the line to
use VS Code's default, or the user's setting.
Add useful links in contrib/vscode/README.md to help the user to
configure VS Code and how to use the debugging feature.

Commit 455923e0a1 ("ls-tree: introduce "--format" option", 2022-03-23)
introduced `--format` and the various placeholders it can take, such as
%(objectname) and %(objectsize).
At some point when that patch was being developed, those placeholders
had shorter names, e.g., %(name) and %(size), which can be seen in the
commit message of 455923e0a1. One instance of "%(size:padded)" also
managed to enter the documentation in the final version of the patch.
Correct it to "%(objectsize:padded)".

Asciidoc renders `--` as em-dash. This is not appropriate for command
