Since the very beginning of Git, we gave the LESS environment a
default value "FRSX" when we spawn "less" as the pager. "S" (chop
long lines instead of wrapping) has been removed from this default
set of options, because it is more or less a personal taste thing,
as opposed to others that have good justifications (i.e. "R" is very
much justified because many kinds of output we produce are colored
and "FX" is justified because output we produce is often shorter
than a page).
Existing users who prefer not to see line-wrapped output may want to
set
$ git config core.pager "less -S"
to restore the traditional behaviour. It is expected that people
find output from the most subcommands easier to read with the new
default, except for "blame" which tends to produce really long
lines. To override the new default only for "git blame", you can do
this:
$ git config pager.blame "less -S"
* mm/pager-less-sans-S:
pager: remove 'S' from $LESS by default
In a repository with many refs, check_refname_component can be a major
contributor to the runtime of some git commands. One such command is
git rev-parse HEAD
Timings for one particular repo, with about 60k refs, almost all
packed, are:
Old: 35 ms
New: 29 ms
Many other commands which read refs are also sped up.

Since the introduction of opportunisitic updates of remote-tracking
branches, started at around f2690487 (fetch: opportunistically
update tracking refs, 2013-05-11) with a few updates in v1.8.4 era,
the remote.*.fetch configuration always kicks in even when a refspec
to specify what to fetch is given on the command line, and there is
no way to disable or override it per-invocation.
Teach the command to pay attention to the --refmap=<lhs>:<rhs>
command-line options that can be used to override the use of
configured remote.*.fetch as the refmap.

It is misleading to mention that <ref> that does not store is to
fetch the ref into FETCH_HEAD, because a refspec that does store is
also to fetch the LHS into FETCH_HEAD. It is doubly misleading to
list it as part of "short-cut". <ref> stands for a refspec that has
it on the LHS with a colon and an empty RHS, and that definition
should be given at the beginning of the entry where the format is
defined.
Tentatively remove this misleading description, which leaves the
`tag <tag>` as the only true short-hand, so move it at the beginning
of the entry.

These two commands are supposed to be equivalent:
$ git log --exclude=refs/notes/\* --all --no-merges --since=2.days |
git shortlog
$ git shortlog --exclude=refs/notes/\* --all --no-merges --since=2.days
However, the latter does not understand the ref-exclusion command
line option, even though other options understood by "log", such as
"--all" and "--no-merges", are understood.
This was because e7b432c5 (revision: introduce --exclude=<glob> to
tame wildcards, 2013-08-30) did not wire the new option fully to the
machinery. A new option understood by handle_revision_pseudo_opt()
must be told to handle_revision_opt() as well.

test_cmp() is primarily meant to compare text files (and display the
difference for debug purposes).
Raw "cmp" is better suited to compare binary files (tar, zip, etc.).
On MinGW, test_cmp is a shell function mingw_test_cmp that tries to
read both files into environment, stripping CR characters (introduced
in commit 4d715ac0).
This function usually speeds things up, as fork is extremly slow on
Windows. But no wonder that this function is extremely slow and
sometimes even crashes when comparing large tar or zip files.

Running "git update-index --cacheinfo" without any further
arguments results in a segfault rather than an error
message. Commit ec160ae (update-index: teach --cacheinfo a
new syntax "mode,sha1,path", 2014-03-23) added code to
examine the format of the argument, but forgot to handle the
NULL case.
Returning an error from the parser is enough, since we then
treat it as an old-style "--cacheinfo <mode> <sha1> <path>",
and complain that we have less than 3 arguments to read.

mergetool.prompt used to default to 'true', always causing a confirmation
"do you really want to run the tool on this path" to be shown.
Among the two purposes the prompt serves, ignore the use case to
confirm that the user wants to view particular path with the named
tool, and make the prompt only to confirm the choice of the tool
made by autodetection and defaulting. For those who configured the
tool explicitly, the prompt shown for the latter purpose is simply
annoying.
Strictly speaking, this is a backward incompatible change and the
users need to explicitly set the variable to 'true' if they want to
resurrect the now-ignored use case.

Read-only operations such as "git status" that internally refreshes
the index write out the refreshed index to the disk to optimize
future accesses to the working tree, but this could race with a
"read-write" operation that modify the index while it is running.
Detect such a race and avoid overwriting the index.
Duy raised a good point that we may need to do the same for the
normal writeout codepath, not just the "opportunistic" update
codepath. While that is true, nobody sane would be running two
simultaneous operations that are clearly write-oriented competing
with each other against the same index file. So in that sense that
can be done as a less urgent follow-up for this topic.

Instead of running N pair-wise diff-trees when inspecting a

read_ref_at has its own parsing of the reflog file for no really good reason
so lets change this to use the existing reflog iterators. This removes one
instance where we manually unmarshall the reflog file format.
Remove the now redundant ref_msg function.
Log messages for errors are changed slightly. We no longer print the file
name for the reflog, instead we refer to it as 'Log for ref <refname>'.
This might be a minor useability regression, but I don't really think so, since
experienced users would know where the log is anyway and inexperienced users
would not know what to do about/how to repair 'Log ... has gap ...' anyway.
Adapt the t1400 test to handle the change in log messages.

When you try to commit with unmerged entries, you get an
error like:
$ git commit
error: 'commit' is not possible because you have unmerged files.
The quotes around "commit" are clunky; the user doesn't care
that this message is a template with the command-name filled
in. Saying:
error: commit is not possible because you have unmerged files
is easier to read. As this code is called from other places,
we may also end up with:
$ git merge
error: merge is not possible because you have unmerged files
$ git cherry-pick foo
error: cherry-pick is not possible because you have unmerged files
$ git revert foo
error: revert is not possible because you have unmerged files
All of which look better without the quotes. This also
happens to match the behavior of "git pull", which generates
a similar message (but does not share code, as it is a shell
script).
