75375ea337 Merge branch 'jk/branch-shortening-funny-symrefs' into maint
A change back in version 2.7 to "git branch" broke display of a
symbolic ref in a non-standard place in the refs/ hierarchy (we
expect symbolic refs to appear in refs/remotes/*/HEAD to point at
the primary branch the remote has, and as .git/HEAD to point at the
branch we locally checked out).

bb05510e55 t5510: run auto-gc in the foreground
The last test added to 't5510-fetch' in 0898c96281 (fetch: release
pack files before garbage-collecting, 2016-01-13) may sporadically
trigger following error message from the test harness:

  rm: cannot remove 'trash directory.t5510-fetch/auto-gc/.git': Directory not empty

The test in question forces an auto-gc, which, if the system supports
it, runs in the background by default, and occasionally takes long
enough for the test to finish and for 'test_done' to start
housekeeping.  This can lead to the test's 'git gc --auto' in the
background and 'test_done's 'rm -rf $trash' in the foreground racing
each other to create and delete files and directories.  It might just
happen that 'git gc' re-creates a directory that 'rm -rf' already
visited and removed, which ultimately triggers the above error.

Disable detaching the auto-gc process to ensure that it finishes
before the test can continue, thus avoiding this racy situation.

f924b52a77 Windows: add pthread_sigmask() that does nothing
A previous change introduced a call to pthread_sigmask() in order to block
SIGPIPE in a thread. Since there are no signal facilities on Windows that
are similar to POSIX signals, just ignore the request to block the signal.
In the particular case, the effect of blocking SIGPIPE on POSIX is that
write() calls return EPIPE when the reader closes the pipe. This is how
write() behaves on Windows.

9cea46cdda pack-objects: warn on split packs disabling bitmaps
It can be tempting for a server admin to want a stable set of
long-lived packs for dumb clients; but also want to enable bitmaps
to serve smart clients more quickly.

Unfortunately, such a configuration is impossible; so at least warn
users of this incompatibility since commit 21134714 (pack-objects:
turn off bitmaps when we split packs, 2014-10-16).

Tested the warning by inspecting the output of:

	make -C t t5310-pack-bitmaps.sh GIT_TEST_OPTS=-v

6a730e10a7 win32mmap: set errno appropriately
It is not really helpful when a `git fetch` fails with the message:

	fatal: mmap failed: No error

In the particular instance encountered by a colleague of yours truly,
the Win32 error code was ERROR_COMMITMENT_LIMIT which means that the
page file is not big enough.

Let's make the message

	fatal: mmap failed: File too large

instead, which is only marginally better, but which can be associated
with the appropriate work-around: setting `core.packedGitWindowSize` to
a relatively small value.

659488326c wrapper.c: delete dead function git_mkstemps()
Its last call site was replaced by mks_tempfile_ts() in 284098f (diff:
use tempfile module - 2015-08-12) and there's a good chance
mks_tempfile_ts will continue to successfully handle this job. Delete
it.

2013-07-14).

0ff74101dc test-lib: simplify '--option=value' parsing
To get the 'value' from '--option=value', test-lib.sh parses said
option running 'expr' with a regexp.  This involves a subshell, an
external process, and a lot of non-alphanumeric characters in the
regexp.

Use a much simpler POSIX-defined shell parameter expansion instead to
do the same.

7550424804 name-rev: include taggerdate in considering the best name
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.
