The attribute system may be asked for a path that itself or its

fine if we cannot open .gitattribute file in such a case. Failure
to open per-directory .gitattributes with error status other than

The note that explains that changes introduced by removed commits are
preserved should be placed directly after the paragraph that describes
such commits removal. Otherwise the reference to "the commits" appears
out of context.
Also the big example that follows "Consider this history" is about
rewriting part of the history DAG. Move the paragraph that
describes the operation close to it.

"git blame MAKEFILE" run in a history that has "Makefile" but not
"MAKEFILE" should say "No such file MAKEFILE in HEAD", but got
confused on a case insensitive filesystem and failed to do so.
Even during a conflicted merge, "git blame $path" always meant to
blame uncommitted changes to the "working tree" version; make it
more useful by showing cleanly merged parts as coming from the other
branch that is being merged.

The option parsing of "git checkout" had error checking, dwim and
defaulting missing options, all mixed in the code, and issuing an

This reverts the i18n part of 7f81463 (Use correct grammar in diffstat
summary line - 2012-02-01) but still keeps the grammar correctness for
English. It also reverts b354f11 (Fix tests under GETTEXT_POISON on
diffstat - 2012-08-27). The result is diffstat always in English
for all commands.
This helps stop users from accidentally sending localized
format-patch'd patches.

Often we consult an in-tree .gitattributes file that exists per
directory. Majority of directories do not usually have such a file,
and it is perfectly fine if we cannot open it because there is no
such file, but we do want to know when there is an I/O or permission
error. Earlier, we made the codepath warn when we fail to open it
for reasons other than ENOENT for that reason.
We however sometimes have to attempt to open the .gitattributes file
from a directory that does not exist in the commit that is currently
checked out. "git pack-objects" wants to know if a path is marked
with "-delta" attributes, and "git archive" wants to know about
export-ignore and export-subst attributes. Both commands may and do
need to ask the attributes system about paths in an arbitrary
commit. "git diff", after removing an entire directory, may want to
know textconv on paths that used to be in that directory.
Make sure we also ignore a failure to open per-directory attributes
file due to ENOTDIR.

The discussion of email subject throughout the documentation is
misleading; it indicates that the first line will always become
the subject. In fact, the subject is generally all lines up until
the first full blank line.
This patch refines that, and makes more use of the concept of a
commit title, with the title being all text up to the first blank line.
