a240de1137 Introduce receive.denyDeletes
Occasionally, it may be useful to prevent branches from getting deleted from
a centralized repository, particularly when no administrative access to the
server is available to undo it via reflog. It also makes
receive.denyNonFastForwards more useful if it is used for access control
since it prevents force-updating by deleting and re-creating a ref.

c2163c6aa2 add instructions on how to send patches to the mailing list with Gmail
Gmail is one of the most popular email providers in the world. Now that Gmail
supports IMAP, sending properly formatted patches via `git imap-send` is
trivial. This section in SubmittingPatches explains how to do so.

2c850f1221 Documentation: clarify information about 'ident' attribute

mistakenly be interpreted as "the attribute needs to have its value set to
some kind of path". This clarifies things.

9b6f84d2c2 asciidoc: add minor workaround to add an empty line after code blocks
Insert an empty <simpara> in manpages after code blocks to force and
empty line.

The problem can be seen on the manpage for the git tutorial, where an
example command and the following paragraph is printed with no empty
line between them:

     First, note that you can get documentation for a command such as git
     log --graph with:

         $ man git-log
     It is a good idea to introduce yourself to git [...]

678852d918 document the diff driver textconv feature
This patch also changes the term "custom diff driver" to
"external diff driver"; now that there are more facets of a
"custom driver" than just external diffing, it makes sense
to refer to the configuration of "diff.foo.*" as the "foo
diff driver", with "diff.foo.command" as the "external
driver for foo".

53ffb878a9 git-daemon: set REMOTE_ADDR to client address
This allows hooks like pre-receive to look at the client's IP
address.

Of course the IP address can't be used to get strong security;
git-daemon isn't the right thing to use if you need that. However,
basic IP address checking can be good enough in some situations.

REMOTE_ADDR is the same environment variable used to communicate the
client's address to CGI scripts.

20244ea2d0 git-remote: list branches in vertical lists
Previously, branches were listed on a single line in each section. But
if there are many branches, then horizontal, line-wrapped lists are very
inconvenient to scan for a human. This makes the lists vertical, i.e one
branch per line is printed.

Since "git remote" is porcelain, we can easily make this
backwards-incompatible change.

69cd8f6342 builtin-blame: Reencode commit messages according to git-log rules.
Currently git-blame outputs text from the commit messages
(e.g. the author name and the summary string) as-is, without
even providing any information about the encoding used for
the data. It makes interpreting the data in multilingual
environment very difficult.

This commit changes the blame implementation to recode the
messages using the rules used by other commands like git-log.
Namely, the target encoding can be specified through the
i18n.commitEncoding or i18n.logOutputEncoding options, or
directly on the command line using the --encoding parameter.

Converting the encoding before output seems to be more
friendly to the porcelain tools than simply providing the
value of the encoding header, and does not require changing
the output format.

If anybody needs the old behavior, it is possible to
achieve it by specifying --encoding=none.

a567fdcb01 format-patch: autonumber by default
format-patch is most commonly used for multiple patches at once when
sending a patchset, in which case we want to number the patches; on
the other hand, single patches are not usually expected to be
numbered.

In other words, the typical behavior expected from format-patch is the
one obtained by enabling autonumber, so we set it to be the default.

Users that want to disable numbering for a particular patchset can do
so with the existing -N command-line switch.  Users that want to
change the default behavior can use the format.numbering config key.

If the caller supplies --tags they want the lightweight, unannotated
tags to be searched for a match.  If a lightweight tag is closer
in the history, it should be matched, even if an annotated tag is
reachable further back in the commit chain.

The same applies with --all when matching any other type of ref.

7faee6b8de compat/cygwin.c - Use cygwin's stat if core.filemode == true
Cygwin's POSIX emulation allows use of core.filemode true, unlike native
Window's implementation of stat / lstat, and Cygwin/git users who have
configured core.filemode true in various repositories will be very
unpleasantly surprised to find that git is no longer honoring that option.
So, this patch forces use of Cygwin's stat functions if core.filemode is
set true, regardless of any other considerations.

convention should be used instead of GNU grep's "-Z".
So things like 'git grep -l -z "$FOO" | xargs -0 sed -i "s/$FOO/$BOO/"'
do work now.

f8cca019b9 rebase: Support preserving merges in non-interactive mode
As a result of implementation details, 'git rebase' could
previously only preserve merges in interactive mode. That
limitation was hard for users to understand and awkward to
explain.

This patch works around it by running the interactive rebase
helper git-rebase--interactive with GIT_EDITOR set to ':'
when the user passes "-p" but not "-i" to the rebase command.
The effect is that the interactive rebase helper is used but
the user never sees an editor.

The test-case included in this patch was originally written
by Stephen Habermann <stephen@exigencecorp.com>, but has
been extensively modified since its creation.

72c69ebc03 git commit: Reformat output somewhat
Previously, we used to print something along the lines of

	Created commit abc9056 on master: Snib the sprock

but that output was sometimes confusing, as many projects use
the "subsystem: message" style of commit subjects (just like
this commit message does). When such improvements are done on
topic-branches, it's not uncommon to name the topic-branch the
same as the subsystem, leading to output like this:

	Created commit abc9056 on i386: i386: Snib the sprock

which doesn't look very nice and can be highly confusing.
This patch alters the format so that the noise-word "commit"
is dropped except when it makes the output read better and
the commit subject is put inside parentheses. We also
emphasize the detached case so that users do not overlook it
in case the commit subject is long enough to extend to the
next line. The end result looks thusly:

	normal case
	Created abc9056 (i386: Snib the sprock) on i386

	detached head
	Created DETACHED commit abc9056 (i386: Snib the sprock)

While we're at it, we rename "initial commit" to "root-commit"
to align it with the argument to 'git log', producing this:

	initial commit
	Created root-commit abc9056 (i386: Snib the sprock) on i386

Documentation/gittutorial-2.txt is updated accordingly so that
new users recognize what they're looking at.

adbc0b6b6e cygwin: Use native Win32 API for stat
lstat/stat functions in Cygwin are very slow, because they try to emulate
some *nix things that Git does not actually need. This patch adds Win32
specific implementation of these functions for Cygwin.

This implementation handles most situation directly but in some rare cases
it falls back on the implementation provided for Cygwin. This is necessary
for two reasons:

- Cygwin has its own file hierarchy, so absolute paths used in Cygwin is
  not suitable to be used Win32 API. cygwin_conv_to_win32_path can not be
  used because it automatically dereference Cygwin symbol links, also it
  causes extra syscall. Fortunately Git rarely use absolute paths, so we
  always use Cygwin implementation for absolute paths.

- Support of symbol links. Cygwin stores symbol links as ordinary using
  one of two possible formats. Therefore, the fast implementation falls
  back to Cygwin functions if it detects potential use of symbol links.

The speed of this implementation should be the same as mingw_lstat for
common cases, but it is considerable slower when the specified file name
does not exist.

Despite all efforts to make the fast implementation as robust as possible,
it may not work well for some very rare situations. I am aware only one
situation: use Cygwin mount to bind unrelated paths inside repository
together.  Therefore, the core.ignoreCygwinFSTricks configuration option is
provided, which controls whether native or Cygwin version of stat is used.
