In the distant past, the order things were documented was
'Invocation', 'Commands', 'Capabilities', ...
Then it was decided that before giving a list of Commands, there
should be an overall description of the 'Input format', which was
a wise decision. However, this description was put as the very
first thing, with the rationale that any implementor would want
to know that first.
However, it seems an implementor would actually first need to
know how the remote helper will be invoked, so moving
'Invocation' to the front again seems logical. Moreover, we now
don't switch from discussing the input format to the invocation
style and then back to input related stuff.

The getpass-implementation we use on Windows isn't at all ideal;
it works in raw-mode (as opposed to cooked mode), and as a result
does not deal correcly with deletion, arrow-keys etc.
Instead, use cooked mode to read a line at the time, allowing the
C run-time to process the input properly.
Since we set files to be opened in binary-mode by default on
Windows, introduce a FORCE_TEXT macro that expands to the "t"
modifier that forces the terminal to be opened in text-mode so we
do not have to deal with CRLF issues.

Finishing touch to allow the new advice message squelched
with an advice.* configuration variable.
* mm/status-push-pull-advise:
status: respect advice.statusHints for ahead/behind advice
If the user has unset advice.statusHints, we already
suppress the "use git reset to..." hints in each stanza. The
new "use git push to publish..." hint is the same type of
hint. Let's respect statusHints for it, rather than making
the user set yet another advice flag.

We block SIGINT and SIGQUIT while the editor runs so that
git is not killed accidentally by a stray "^C" meant for the
editor or its subprocesses. This works because most editors
ignore SIGINT.
However, some editor wrappers, like emacsclient, expect to
die due to ^C. We detect the signal death in the editor and
properly exit, but not before writing a useless error
message to stderr. Instead, let's notice when the editor was
killed by a terminal signal and just raise the signal on
ourselves. This skips the message and looks to our parent
like we received SIGINT ourselves.
The end effect is that if the user's editor ignores SIGINT,
we will, too. And if it does not, then we will behave as if
we did not ignore it. That should make all users happy.
Note that in the off chance that another part of git has
ignored SIGINT while calling launch_editor, we will still
properly detect and propagate the failed return code from
the editor (i.e., the worst case is that we generate the
useless error, not fail to notice the editor's death).

SIGINT and SIGQUIT are not generally interesting signals to
the user, since they are typically caused by them hitting "^C"
or otherwise telling their terminal to send the signal.

The user's editor likely catches SIGINT (ctrl-C). but if
the user spawns a command from the editor and uses ctrl-C to
kill that command, the SIGINT will likely also kill git
itself (depending on the editor, this can leave the terminal
in an unusable state).
Let's ignore it while the editor is running, and do the same
for SIGQUIT, which many editors also ignore. This matches
the behavior if we were to use system(3) instead of
run-command.

The primary thing Linus's patch wanted to change was to make sure
that 0-line change appears for a mode-only change. Update the
first test to chmod a file that we can see in the output (limited
by --stat-count) to demonstrate it. Also make sure to use test_chmod
and compare the index and the tree, so that we can run this test
even on a filesystem without permission bits.
Later two tests are about fixes to separate issues that were
introduced and/or uncovered by Linus's patch as a side effect, but
the issues are not related to mode-only changes. Remove chmod from
the tests.
