This comes from conversation at the GitTogether where we thought it would
be helpful to be able to teach people to 'stage' files because it tends
to cause confusion when told that they have to keep 'add'ing them.
This continues the movement to start referring to the index as a
staging area (eg: the --staged alias to 'git diff'). Also adds a
doc file for 'git stage' that basically points to the docs for
'git add'.

We remove crud characters at the beginning and end of real-names so that
when we see email addresses like
From: "David S. Miller" <davem@davemloft.net>
we drop the quotes around the name when we parse that and split it up into
name and email.
However, the list of crud characters was basically just a random list of
common things that are found around names, and it didn't contain the
backslash character that some insane scripts seem to use when quoting
things. So now the kernel has a number of authors listed like
Author: \"Rafael J. Wysocki\ <rjw@sisk.pl>
because the author name had started out as
From: \"Rafael J. Wysocki\" <rjw@sisk.pl>
and the only "crud" character we noticed and removed was the final
double-quote at the end.
We should probably do better quote removal from names anyway, but this is
the minimal obvious patch.

The patch that allows "git bisect skip" to be passed a range of
commits using the "<commit1>..<commit2>" notation is flawed because
it introduces a regression when it was passed a simple rev or commit.
"git bisect skip <commit>" doesn't work any more, because <commit>
is quoted but not properly unquoted.
This patch fixes that and add tests cases to better check when it is
passed commits and range of commits.
While at it, this patch also properly quotes the non range arguments
using the "sq" function.

When the search type is "touching paths" or "adding/removing string",
it's not very useful to highlight instances of the search string in
the commit message, headline or author name, so this disables the
highlighting in those cases.
This was suggested by Mark Burton <markb@ordern.com>, but the
implementation is different to his patch, which tested $gdttype at
each place where $markingmatches was tested.

In "common" man pages there is luckily no "NAME" anywhere except at

mis-select it and lead to common-cmds.h corruption. So better nail it

The gitweb_get_feature() function retrieves the configuration parameters
for the feature (such as the list of snapshot formats or the list of
additional actions), but it is very often used to see if feature is
enabled (which is returned as the first element in the list).
Because accepting the returned list in the scalar context by mistake
yields the number of elements in the array, which is non-zero in all
cases, such a mistake would result in a bug for the latter use, with
disabled features appearing enabled. All existing callers that call the
function for this purpose assign the return value in the list context to
retrieve the first element, but that is only because we fixed careless
callers recently.
This adds gitweb_check_feature() as a wrapper to gitweb_get_feature() that
can be called safely in the scalar context to see if a feature is enabled
to reduce the risk of future bugs. Callers of "get" that use the call
only to see if the feature is enabled are updated to call this wrapper.

Writing a tree out of an index with an "intent to add" entry is blocked.
This implies that you cannot "git commit" from such a state; however you
can still do "git commit -a" or "git commit $that_path".
Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
This uses the extended index flag mechanism introduced earlier to mark
the entries added to the index via "git add -N" with CE_INTENT_TO_ADD.
The logic to detect an "intent to add" entry for the purpose of allowing
"git rm --cached $path" is tightened to check not just for a staged empty
blob, but with the CE_INTENT_TO_ADD bit. This protects an empty blob that
was explicitly added and then modified in the work tree from being dropped
with this sequence:
$ >empty
$ git add empty
$ echo "non empty" >empty
$ git rm --cached empty

which is an unlikely error from mkstemp().

This avoids the following misleading error message:
error: unable to create temporary sha1 filename ./objects/15: File exists
mkstemp can fail for many reasons, one of which, ENOENT, can occur if
the directory for the temp file doesn't exist. create_tmpfile tried to
handle this case by always trying to mkdir the directory, even if it
already existed. This caused errno to be clobbered, so one cannot tell
why mkstemp really failed, and it truncated the buffer to just the
directory name, resulting in the strange error message shown above.
Note that in both occasions that I've seen this failure, it has not been
due to a missing directory, or bad permissions, but some other, unknown
mkstemp failure mode that did not occur when I ran git again. This code
could perhaps be made more robust by retrying mkstemp, in case it was a
transient failure.

The completion script for 'git revert' currently offers options and

Sometimes it's handy to complete full refs, e.g. the user has some
refs outside of refs/{heads,remotes,tags} or the user wants to
complete some git command's special refs (like 'git show
refs/bisect/bad').
To do that, we check whether the ref to be completed starts with
'refs/' or is 'refs' (to reduce the risk of matching 'refs-'). If it
does, then we offer full refs for completion; otherwise everything
works as usual.
This way the impact on the common case is fairly small (hopefully not
many users have branches or tags starting with 'refs'), and in the
special case the cost of typing out 'refs' is bearable.
While at it, also remove the unused 'cmd' variable from '__git_refs'.
