When using the '-w $cvsdir' option to cvsexportcommit, it will chdir into
$cvsdir before executing several other git commands. If $GIT_DIR is set to
a relative path (e.g. '.'), the git commands executed by cvsexportcommit
will naturally fail.
Therefore, ensure that $GIT_DIR is absolute before the chdir to $cvsdir.

The additional message may be interesting for git developers,

When a patch adds a whitespace followed by end-of-line, the

Improve look of commit search output ('search' view) by better cutting
of matched string and its context in match info, as suggested by Junio.
For example, if you are looking for "very long search string" in the
following line:
Could somebody test this with very long search string, and see how
you would now see:
...this with <<very long ... string>>, and see...
instead of:
Could som... <<very long search...>>, and see...
(where <<something>> denotes emphasized / colored fragment; matched
fragment to be more exact).
For this feature, support for fourth [optional] parameter to chop_str
subroutine was added. This fourth parameter is used to denote where
to cut string to make it shorter. chop_str can now cut at the
beginning (from the _left_ side of the string), in the middle
(_center_ of the string), or at the end (from the _right_ side of
the string); cutting from right is the default:
chop_str(somestring, len, slop, 'left') -> ' ...string'
chop_str(somestring, len, slop, 'center') -> 'som ... ing'
chop_str(somestring, len, slop, 'right') -> 'somestr... '
If you want to use default slop (default additional length), use undef
as value for third parameter to chop_str.
While at it, return from chop_str early if given string is so short
that chop_str couldn't shorten it. Simplify also regexp used by
chop_str. Make ellipsis (dots) stick to shortened fragment for
cutting at ends, to better see which part got shortened.
Simplify passing all arguments to chop_str in chop_and_escape_str
subroutine. This was needed to pass additional options to chop_str.

Use the "boundary" feature to find the origin (or find that there are
multiple origins), and use the actual list of commits to pass to
shortlog.
This makes all cover letter include shortlogs, and all cover letters
for series with a single boundary commit include diffstats (if there
are multiple boundary commits it's unclear what would be meaningful as
a diffstat). Note that the single boundary test is empirical, not
theoretical; even a -2 limiting condition will give a diffstat if there's
only one boundary commit in this particular case.

Git has difficulties on file systems that do not properly
distinguish case or modify filenames in unexpected ways. The two
major examples are Windows and Mac OS X. Both systems preserve
case of file names but do not distinguish between filenames that
differ only by case. Simple operations such as "git mv" or
"git merge" can fail unexpectedly. In addition, Mac OS X normalizes
unicode, which make git's life even harder.
This commit adds tests that currently fail but should pass if
file system as decribed above are fully supported. The test need
to be run on Windows and Mac X as they already pass on Linux.
Mitch Tishmack is the original author of the tests for unicode
normalization.

Earlier we had a cop-out in the documentation to make the
behaviour "undefined" if configuration had more than one
insteadOf that would match the target URL, like this:
[url "git://git.or.cz/"]
insteadOf = "git.or.cz:" ; (1)
insteadOf = "repo.or.cz:" ; (2)
[url "/local/mirror/"]
insteadOf = "git.or.cz:myrepo" ; (3)
insteadOf = "repo.or.cz:" ; (4)
It would be most natural to take the longest and first match, i.e.
- rewrite "git.or.cz:frotz" to "git://git.or.cz/frotz" by using
(1),
- rewrite "git.or.cz:myrepo/xyzzy" to "/local/mirror/xyzzy" by favoring
(3) over (1), and
- rewrite "repo.or.cz:frotz" to "git://git.or.cz/frotz" by

This allows users with different preferences for access methods to the
same remote repositories to rewrite each other's URLs by pattern
matching across a large set of similiarly set up repositories to each
get the desired access.
For example, if you don't have a kernel.org account, you might want
settings like:
[url "git://git.kernel.org/pub/"]
insteadOf = master.kernel.org:/pub
Then, if you give git a URL like:
master.kernel.org:/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/linville/wireless-2.6.git
it will act like you gave it:
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/linville/wireless-2.6.git
and you can cut-and-paste pull requests in email without fixing them

This error message is very confusing---it doesn't tell the user
anything about how to fix the situation. And the actual fix
for the situation ("git bisect reset") does a checkout of a
potentially random branch, (compared to what the user wants to
be on for the bisect she is starting).
The simplest way to eliminate the confusion is to just make
"git bisect start" do the cleanup itself. There's no significant
loss of safety here since we already have a general safety in
the form of the reflog.
Note: We preserve the warning for any cogito users. We do this
by switching from .git/head-name to .git/BISECT_START for the
extra state, (which is a more descriptive name anyway).

Most of the time when I am on a detached HEAD and I am not doing
a rebase or bisect operation the working directory is sitting on a
tagged release of the repository. Showing the tag name instead of
the commit SHA-1 is much more descriptive and a much better reminder
of the state of this working directory.
Now that git-describe --exact-match is available as a cheap means
of obtaining the exact annotated tag or nothing at all, we can
favor the annotated tag name over the abbreviated commit SHA-1.

Sometimes scripts want (or need) the annotated tag name that exactly
matches a specific commit, or no tag at all. In such cases it can be
difficult to determine if the output of `git describe $commit` is a
real tag name or a tag+abbreviated commit. A common idiom is to run
git-describe twice:
if test $(git describe $commit) = $(git describe --abbrev=0 $commit)
...
but this is a huge waste of time if the caller is just going to pick a
different method to describe $commit or abort because it is not exactly
an annotated tag.
Setting the maximum number of candidates to 0 allows the caller to ask
for only a tag that directly points at the supplied commit, or to have
git-describe abort if no such item exists.

If we aren't going to use a ref there is no reason for us to open

By using the peeled ref information inside of the packed-refs file we
can avoid opening tag objects to obtain the commits they reference.
This speeds up git-describe when there are a large number of tags
in the repository as we have less objects to parse before we can
start commit matching.

Currently the only caller of peel_ref is show-ref, which is using
this function to show the peeled tag information if it is available
from an existing packed-refs file. The call happens during the
for_each_ref callback function, so we have the proper struct ref_list
already on the call stack but it is not easily available to return
the peeled information to the caller.
We now save the current struct ref_list item before calling back
into the callback function so that future calls to peel_ref from
within the callback function can quickly access the current ref.
Doing so will save us an lstat() per ref processed as we no longer
have to check the filesystem to see if the ref exists as a loose
file or is packed. This current ref caching also saves a linear
scan of the cached packed refs list.
As a micro-optimization we test the address of the passed ref name
against the current_ref->name before we go into the much more costly
strcmp(). Nearly any caller of peel_ref will be passing us the same
string do_for_each_ref passed them, which is current_ref->name.

So I find it irritating when git thinks for a long time without telling me
what's taking so long. And by "long time" I definitely mean less than two
seconds, which is already way too long for me.
This hits me when doing a large pull and the checkout takes a long time,
or when just switching to another branch that is old and again checkout
takes a while.
Now, git read-tree already had support for the "-v" flag that does nice
updates about what's going on, but it was delayed by two seconds, and if
the thing had already done more than half by then it would be quiet even
after that, so in practice it meant that we migth be quiet for up to four
seconds. Much too long.
So this patch changes the timeout to just one second, which makes it much
more palatable to me.
The other thing this patch does is that "git checkout" now doesn't disable
the "-v" flag when doing its thing, and only disables the output when
given the -q flag. When allowing "checkout -m" to fall back to a 3-way
merge, the users will see the error message from straight "checkout",
so we will tell them that we do fall back to make them look less scary.
