We already support bold, underline, and similar attributes.
Let's add italic to the mix. According to the Wikipedia
page on ANSI colors, this attribute is "not widely
supported", but it does seem to work on my xterm.
We don't have to bump the maximum color size because we were
already over-allocating it (but we do adjust the comment
appropriately).

Using "no-bold" rather than "nobold" is easier to read and
more natural to type (to me, anyway, even though I was the
person who introduced "nobold" in the first place). It's
easy to allow both.

This is a general cleanup of the description of colors in
git-config, mostly to address inaccuracies and confusion
that had grown over time:
- you can have many attributes, not just one
- the discussion flip-flopped between colors and
attributes; now we discuss everything about colors, then
everything about attributes
- many concepts were lumped into the first paragraph,
making it hard to read, and especially to find the
actual lists of colors and attributes. I stopped short
of breaking those out into their own lists, as it seemed
like an excessive use of vertical screen real estate.
- we introduced negated attributes, but then the next
paragraph basically explains how each item starts off
with no attributes. So why would one need negated
attributes? We now explain.
- minor typo, language, and typography fixes

Previously, libcurl would follow redirection to any protocol
it was compiled for support with. This is desirable to allow
redirection from HTTP to HTTPS. However, it would even
successfully allow redirection from HTTP to SFTP, a protocol
that git does not otherwise support at all. Furthermore
git's new protocol-whitelisting could be bypassed by
following a redirect within the remote helper, as it was
only enforced at transport selection time.
This patch limits redirects within libcurl to HTTP, HTTPS,
FTP and FTPS. If there is a protocol-whitelist present, this
list is limited to those also allowed by the whitelist. As
redirection happens from within libcurl, it is impossible
for an HTTP redirect to a protocol implemented within
another remote helper.
When the curl version git was compiled with is too old to
support restrictions on protocol redirection, we warn the
user if GIT_ALLOW_PROTOCOL restrictions were requested. This
is a little inaccurate, as even without that variable in the
environment, we would still restrict SFTP, etc, and we do
not warn in that case. But anything else means we would
literally warn every time git accesses an http remote.
This commit includes a test, but it is not as robust as we
would hope. It redirects an http request to ftp, and checks
that curl complained about the protocol, which means that we
are relying on curl's specific error message to know what
happened. Ideally we would redirect to a working ftp server
and confirm that we can clone without protocol restrictions,
and not with them. But we do not have a portable way of
providing an ftp server, nor any other protocol that curl
supports (https is the closest, but we would have to deal
with certificates).
[jk: added test and version warning]

If we are cloning an untrusted remote repository into a
sandbox, we may also want to fetch remote submodules in
order to get the complete view as intended by the other
side. However, that opens us up to attacks where a malicious
user gets us to clone something they would not otherwise
have access to (this is not necessarily a problem by itself,
but we may then act on the cloned contents in a way that
exposes them to the attacker).
Ideally such a setup would sandbox git entirely away from
high-value items, but this is not always practical or easy
to set up (e.g., OS network controls may block multiple
protocols, and we would want to enable some but not others).
We can help this case by providing a way to restrict
particular protocols. We use a whitelist in the environment.
This is more annoying to set up than a blacklist, but
defaults to safety if the set of protocols git supports
grows). If no whitelist is specified, we continue to default
to allowing all protocols (this is an "unsafe" default, but
since the minority of users will want this sandboxing
effect, it is the only sensible one).
A note on the tests: ideally these would all be in a single
test file, but the git-daemon and httpd test infrastructure
is an all-or-nothing proposition rather than a test-by-test
prerequisite. By putting them all together, we would be
unable to test the file-local code on machines without
apache.
