* jc/custom-comment-char:
Allow custom "comment char"
Some users do want to write a line that begin with a pound sign, #,
in their commit log message. Many tracking system recognise
a token of #<bugid> form, for example.
The support we offer these use cases is not very friendly to the end
users. They have a choice between
- Don't do it. Avoid such a line by rewrapping or indenting; and
- Use --cleanup=whitespace but remove all the hint lines we add.
Give them a way to set a custom comment char, e.g.
$ git -c core.commentchar="%" commit
so that they do not have to do either of the two workarounds.

updates, many of the call sites of the new strbuf_add_commented_*()

In commit f20f387, "git commit" notices and dies much
earlier when we have a bogus commit identity. That commit
did not add a test because we cannot do so reliably (namely,
we can only trigger the behavior on a system where the
automatically generated identity is bogus). However, now
that we have a prerequisite check for this feature, we can
add a test that will at least run on systems that produce
such a bogus identity.

Test t7502.21 checks whether we write the committer name
into COMMIT_EDITMSG when it has been automatically
determined. However, not all systems can produce valid
automatic identities.
Prior to f20f387 (commit: check committer identity more
strictly), this test worked even when we did not have a
valid automatic identity, since it did not run the strict
test until after we had generated the template. That commit
tightened the check to fail early (since we would fail
later, anyway), meaning that systems without a valid GECOS
name or hostname would fail the test.
We cannot just work around this, because it depends on
configuration outside the control of the test script.
Therefore we introduce a new test_prerequisite to run this
test only on systems where automatic ident works at all.
As a result, we can drop the confusing test_must_fail bit
from the test. The intent was that by giving "git commit"
invalid input (namely, nothing to commit), that it would
stop at a predictable point, whether we had a valid identity
or not, from which we could view the contents of
COMMIT_EDITMSG. Since that assumption no longer holds, and
we can only run the test when we have a valid identity,
there is no reason not to let commit run to completion. That
lets us be more robust to other unforeseen failures.

In t7502.20, we run "git commit" and check that it warns us
that the author and committer identity are not the same
(this is always the case in the test environment, since we
set up the idents differently).
Instead of actually making a commit, we have a clean index,
so the "git commit" we run will fail. This is marked as
might_fail, which is not really correct; it will always fail
since there is nothing to commit.
However, the only reason not to do a complete commit would
be to see the intermediate state of the COMMIT_EDITMSG file
when the commit is not completed. We don't need to care
about this, though; even a complete commit will leave
COMMIT_EDITMSG for us to view. By doing a real commit and
dropping the might_fail, we are more robust against other
unforeseen failures of "git commit" that might influence our
test result.
It might seem less robust to depend on the fact that "git
commit" leaves COMMIT_EDITMSG in place after a successful
commit. However, that brings this test in line with others
parts of the script, which make the same assumption.
Furthermore, if that ever does change, the right solution is
not to prevent commit from completing, but to set EDITOR to
a script that will record the contents we see. After all,
the point of these tests is to check what the user sees in
their EDITOR, so that would be the most direct test. For
now, though, we can continue to use the "shortcut" that
COMMIT_EDITMSG is left intact.

t7502.20 and t7502.21 check that the author and committer
name are mentioned in the commit message template under
certain circumstances. However, they end up checking a much

One of the tests tries to ensure that editor is not run due
to an early failure. However, it needs to quote the pathname
of the trash directory used in $GIT_EDITOR, since git will
pass it along to the shell. In other words, the test would
pass whether the code was correct or not, since the unquoted
editor specification would never run.
We never noticed the problem because the code is indeed
correct, so git-commit never even tried to run the editor.

Using write_script saves us a few lines of code, and means
we consistently use $SHELL_PATH.
We can also drop the setting of the $pwd variable from
$(pwd). In the first instance, there is no reason to use it
(we can just use $(pwd) directly two lines later, since we
are interpolating the here-document). In the second
instance, it is totally pointless and probably just a
cut-and-paste from the first instance.
Finally, we can use a non-interpolating here document for
the final script, which saves some quoting.

This attempts to fix a regression in git-commit, where non-abbreviated
SHA-1s were printed in the summary.
One possible fix would be to set ctx.abbrev to DEFAULT_ABBREV in the
`if` block, where format_commit_message() is used.
Instead, we do away with the format_commit_message() codeblock
altogether, replacing it with a re-run of log_tree_commit().
We re-run log_tree_commit() with rev.always_show_header set, to force
the invocation of show_log(). The effect of this flag can be seen from
this excerpt from log-tree.c:560, the only area that
rev.always_show_header is checked:
shown = log_tree_diff(opt, commit, &log);
if (!shown && opt->loginfo && opt->always_show_header) {
log.parent = NULL;
show_log(opt);
shown = 1;
}
We also set rev.use_terminator, so that a newline is appended at the end
of the log message. Note that callers in builtin/log.c that also set
rev.always_show_header don't have to set rev.use_terminator, but still
get a newline, because they are wrapped in a pager.

"commit -s" used to add an empty line before adding S-o-b line only when
the last line of the existing log message is not another S-o-b line, but
c1e01b0 (commit: More generous accepting of RFC-2822 footer lines.,
2009-10-28) introduced logic to omit this empty line when the message ends
with a run of "footer" lines, to cover S-o-b's friends, e.g. Acked-by.
However, the logic was overzealous and missed one corner case. A message
that consists of a single line that begins with Token + colon, it can be
mistaken as a S-o-b's friend. We do want an empty line in such a case.

The implementation of exec on Windows is just a rough approximation of the
POSIX behavior. In particular, no real process "overlay" happens (a new
process is spawned instead and the parent process waits until the child
terminates). In particular, the process ID cannot be taken by the exec'd
process. But there is one test in t7502-commit.sh that depends on this.
We have to skip it on Windows.

git_diff_basic_config would give us things like rename

When the arguments to test_must_fail() begin with a variable assignment,
test_must_fail() attempts to execute the variable assignment as a command.
This fails, and so test_must_fail returns with a successful status value
without running the command it was intended to test.
For example, the following script:
#!/bin/sh
test_must_fail () {
"$@"
test $? -gt 0 -a $? -le 129
}
foo='wo adrian'
test_must_fail foo='yo adrian' sh -c 'echo foo: $foo'
always exits zero and prints the message:
test.sh: line 3: foo=yo adrian: command not found
Test 16 calls test_must_fail in such a way and therefore has not been
testing whether git 'do[es] not fire editor in the presence of conflicts'.
A workaround is to set and export the variable in a normal way, not
using one-shot notation. Because this would affect the remainder of
the process, the test is done inside a subshell.

Many scripts compare actual and expected output using
"diff -u". This is nicer than "cmp" because the output shows
how the two differ. However, not all versions of diff
understand -u, leading to unnecessary test failure.
This adds a test_cmp function to the test scripts and
switches all "diff -u" invocations to use it. The function
uses the contents of "$GIT_TEST_CMP" to compare its
arguments; the default is "diff -u".
On systems with a less-capable diff, you can do:

Although we traditionally stripped away excess blank lines, trailing
whitespaces and lines that begin with "#" from the commit log message,
sometimes the message just has to be the way user wants it.
For instance, a commit message template can contain lines that begin with
"#", the message must be kept as close to its original source as possible
if you are converting from a foreign SCM, or maybe the message has a shell
script including its comments for future reference.
The cleanup modes are default, verbatim, whitespace and strip. The
default mode depends on if the message is being edited and will either
strip whitespace and comments (if editor active) or just strip the
whitespace (for where the message is given explicitely).
