"git commit-tree" plumbing command required the user to always sign
its result when the user sets the commit.gpgsign configuration
variable, which was an ancient mistake. Rework "git rebase" that
relied on this mistake so that it reads commit.gpgsign and pass (or
not pass) the -S option to "git commit-tree" to keep the end-user
expectation the same, while teaching "git commit-tree" to ignore
the configuration variable. This will stop requiring the users to
sign commit objects used internally as an implementation detail of
"git stash".

"git describe --contains" often made a hard-to-justify choice of
tag to give name to a given commit, because it tried to come up
with a name with smallest number of hops from a tag, causing an old
commit whose close descendant that is recently tagged were not
described with respect to an old tag but with a newer tag. It did
not help that its computation of "hop" count was further tweaked to
penalize being on a side branch of a merge. The logic has been
updated to favor using the tag with the oldest tagger date, which
is a lot easier to explain to the end users: "We describe a commit
in terms of the (chronologically) oldest tag that contains the
commit."

ba3c69a9 (commit: teach --gpg-sign option, 2011-10-05) introduced a
"signed commit" by teaching the --[no]-gpg-sign option and the
commit.gpgsign configuration variable to various commands that
create commits.
Teaching these to "git commit" and "git merge", both of which are
end-user facing Porcelain commands, was perfectly fine. Allowing
the plumbing "git commit-tree" to suddenly change the behaviour to
surprise the scripts by paying attention to commit.gpgsign was not.
Among the in-tree scripts, filter-branch, quiltimport, rebase and
stash are the commands that run "commit-tree". If any of these
wants to allow users to always sign every single commit, they should
offer their own configuration (e.g. "filterBranch.gpgsign") with an
option to disable signing (e.g. "git filter-branch --no-gpgsign").
Ignoring commit.gpgsign option _obviously_ breaks the backward
compatibility, but it is easy to follow the standard pattern in
scripts to honor whatever configuration variable they choose to
follow. E.g.
case $(git config --bool commit.gpgsign) in
true) sign=-S ;;
*) sign= ;;
esac &&
git commit-tree $sign ...whatever other args...
Do so to make sure that "git rebase" keeps paying attention to the
configuration variable, which unfortunately is a documented mistake.

When creating a shallow clone of a repository with submodules, the depth
argument does not influence the submodules, i.e. the submodules are done
as non-shallow clones. It is unclear what the best default is for the
depth of submodules of a shallow clone, so we need to have the possibility
to do all kinds of combinations:
* shallow super project with shallow submodules
e.g. build bots starting always from scratch. They want to transmit
the least amount of network data as well as using the least amount
of space on their hard drive.
* shallow super project with unshallow submodules
e.g. The superproject is just there to track a collection of repositories
and it is not important to have the relationship between the repositories
intact. However the history of the individual submodules matter.
* unshallow super project with shallow submodules
e.g. The superproject is the actual project and the submodule is a
library which is rarely touched.
The new switch to select submodules to be shallow or unshallow supports
all of these three cases.
It is easy to transition from the first to the second case by just
unshallowing the submodules (`git submodule foreach git fetch
--unshallow`), but it is not possible to transition from the second to the
first case (as we would have already transmitted the non shallow over
the network). That is why we want to make the first case the default in
case of a shallow super project. This leads to the inconvenience in the
second case with the shallow super project and unshallow submodules,
as you need to pass `--no-shallow-submodules`.

The current interface of verify_tag() resolves reference names to SHA1,
however, the plan is to make this functionality public and the current
interface is cumbersome for callers: they are expected to supply the
textual representation of a sha1/refname. In many cases, this requires
them to turn the sha1 to hex representation, just to be converted back
inside verify_tag.
Add a SHA1 parameter to use instead of the name parameter, and rename
the name parameter to "name_to_report" for reporting purposes only.

We most likely want the oldest tag that contained the commit to be
reported. So let's remember the taggerdate, and make it more important
than anything else when choosing the best name for a given commit.
Suggested by Linus Torvalds.
Note that we need to update t9903 because it tested for the old behavior
(which preferred the description "b1~1" over "tags/t2~1").
We might want to introduce a --heed-taggerdate option, and make the new
behavior dependent on that, if it turns out that some scripts rely on the
old name-rev method.

The previous commit said:
We could add the same option to "git pull" and have it passed
through to underlying "git merge". I do not have a fundamental
opposition against such a feature, but this commit does not do
so and instead leaves it as low-hanging fruit for others,
because such a "two project merge" would be done after fetching
the other project into some location in the working tree of an
existing project and making sure how well they fit together, it
is sufficient to allow a local merge without such an option
pass-through from "git pull" to "git merge".

When directories are moved using `git mv` all files in the directory
have been just moved, but no further action was taken on them. This
was done by assigning the mode = WORKING_DIRECTORY to the files
inside a moved directory.
submodules however need to update their link to the git directory as
well as updates to the .gitmodules file. By removing the condition of
`mode != INDEX` (the remaining modes are BOTH and WORKING_DIRECTORY) for
the required submodule actions, we perform these for submodules in a
moved directory.

If read_tree_trivial() succeeds and produces a tree that is already
in the object store, then the index is not written to disk, leaving
it out-of-sync with both HEAD and the working tree.
In order to write the index back out to disk after a merge,
write_index_locked() needs to be called. For most merge strategies, this
is done from try_merge_strategy(). For fast forward updates, this is
done from checkout_fast_forward(). When trivial merges work, the call to
write_index_locked() is buried a little deeper:
merge_trivial()
-> write_tree_trivial()
-> write_cache_as_tree()
-> write_index_as_tree()
-> write_locked_index()
However, it is only called when !cache_tree_fully_valid(), which is how
this bug is triggered. But that also shows why this bug doesn't affect
any other merge strategies or cases.
Add a direct call to write_index_locked() from merge_trivial() to fix
this issue. Since the indirect call to write_locked_index() was
conditional on cache_tree_fully_valid(), it won't be written twice.
