"git subtree" script (in contrib/) used "echo -n" to produce
progress messages in a non-portable way.
* dl/subtree-avoid-tricky-echo:
contrib/subtree: portability fix for string printing
'echo -n' is not portable, but this script used it as a way to give
a string followed by a carriage return for progress messages.
Introduce a new helper shell function "progress" and use printf as a
more portable way to do this. As a side effect, this makes it
unnecessary to have a raw CR in our source, which can be munged in
some shells. For example, MsysGit trims CR before executing a shell
script file in order to make it work right on Windows even if it
uses CRLF as linefeeds.
While at it, replace "echo" using printf in debug() and say() to
eliminate the temptation of reintroducing the same bug.

The documentation says that --squash is for 'add', 'merge',
'pull' and 'push', while --squash actually doesn't change
the behavior of 'push'. Correct the documentation.

cmd_add_commit() is passed FETCH_HEAD by cmd_add_repository, which
is then rev-parsed into an object name. However, if the user is
fetching a tag rather than a branch HEAD, such as by executing:
$ git subtree add -P oldGit https://github.com/git/git.git tags/v1.8.0
the object name refers to a tag and is never peeled, and the git
commit-tree call (line 561) slaps us in the face because it doesn't
peel tags to commits.
Because peeling a committish doesn't do anything if it's already a
commit, fix by peeling the object name before assigning it to $rev
using peel_committish() from git:git-sh-setup.sh, a pre-existing
dependency of git-subtree.

We parse the "--prefix" command-line option into the
"$prefix" shell variable. However, if we do not see such an
option, the variable is left with whatever value it had in
the environment. We should initialize it to a known value,
like we do for other variables.

When working with a remote repository add/pull/push do not accept a
<refspec> as parameter but just a <ref>. They should accept any
well-formatted ref name.
This patch:
- relaxes the check the <ref> argument in "git subtree add <repo>"
(previous code would not accept a ref name that does not exist
locally too, new code only ensures that the ref is well formatted)
- add the same check in "git subtree pull/push" + check the number of
parameters
- update the doc to use <ref> instead of <refspec>

`echo -n` is non-portable. The POSIX specification says:
Conforming applications that wish to do prompting without <newline>
characters or that could possibly be expecting to echo a -n, should
use the printf utility derived from the Ninth Edition system.
Since all of the affected shell scripts use a POSIX shell shebang,
replace `echo -n` invocations with printf.

It turns out that git-subtree script does not have to be run with
bash.
* dm/unbash-subtree:
contrib/git-subtree: Use /bin/sh interpreter instead of /bin/bash
Use /bin/sh interpreter instead of /bin/bash for contrib/git-subtree:
it's required for systems which don't use bash by default (for example,
FreeBSD), while there seem to be no bashisms in the script (confirmed
by looking through the source and tesing subtree functionality with
FreeBSD's /bin/sh) to require specifically bash and not the generic
posix shell.

When using "git subtree push" to split out a subtree and push it to a
remote repository, we do not detect if the split command fails which
causes the LHS of the refspec to be empty, deleting the remote branch.
Fix this by pulling the result of the split command into a variable so
that we can die if the command fails.
