The pagination functionality in git am has some problems:
- It does not check if stdout is a tty, so it always paginates.
- If $GIT_PAGER uses any environment variables, they are being
ignored, since it does not run $GIT_PAGER through eval.
- If $GIT_PAGER is set to the empty string, instead of passing
output through to stdout, it tries to run $dotest/patch.
Fix them. While at it, move the definition of git_pager() to
git-sh-setup so authors of other commands are not tempted to
reimplement it with the same mistakes.

Otherwise the errors can propagate, and show in damnest places, and
you would spend your time chasing ghosts instead of debugging real
problem (yes, it is from personal experience).
This follows (parts of) advice in `perldoc -f do` documentation.
This required restructoring code a bit, so we die only if we are reading
(executing) config file. As a side effect $GITWEB_CONFIG_SYSTEM is always
available, even when we use $GITWEB_CONFIG.

In commit dec543e (am -i, git-svn: use "git var GIT_PAGER"), I tried
to teach git svn to defer to git var on what pager to use. In the
process, I introduced two bugs:
- The value set for $pager in config_pager has local scope, so
run_pager never sees it;
- git var cannot tell whether git svn’s output is going to a
terminal, so the value chosen for $pager does not reflect that
information.
Fix them.

The --paginate option is meant to negate the effect of an explicit or
implicit pager.<cmd> = false setting. Thus it turns the pager on if
output is going to a terminal rather than unconditionally.

Scripted commands that want to use git’s configured pager know better
than ‘git var’ does whether stdout is going to be a tty at the
appropriate time. Checking isatty(1) as git_pager() does now won’t
cut it, since the output of git var itself is almost never a terminal.
The symptom is that when used by humans, ‘git var GIT_PAGER’ behaves
as it should, but when used by scripts, it always returns ‘cat’!
So avoid tricks with isatty() and just always print the configured
pager.
This does not fix the callers to check isatty(1) themselves yet.
Nevertheless, this patch alone is enough to fix 'am --interactive'.
Thanks to Sebastian Celis for the report and Jeff King for the
analysis.

This expands to "symref" or "packed" or an empty string, exposing the

New %(symref) output atom expands to the name of the ref a symbolic ref

When storing a message over IMAP (RFC 3501 6.3.11), the message should be
in the format of an RFC 2822 message; most notably, CRLF must be used as
a line terminator.
Convert "\n" line endings in the payload to CRLF before feeding it to
IMAP APPEND command.

By default, git-archive takes attributes from the tree being archived.
People however often wonder why their attempts to affect the way how the
command archives their tree by changing .gitattributes in their work tree
fail.
Add a bit of explanatory note to tell them how to achieve what they want
to do.

It's hard to see the "how to commit" part of this message,
which users may want to cut and paste. On top of that,
having it in paragraph form means that a really long commit
name may cause ugly wrapping. Let's make it prettier, like:
Automatic cherry-pick failed. After resolving the conflicts,
mark the corrected paths with 'git add <paths>' or 'git rm <paths>'
and commit the result with:

When we have a conflict, we advise the user to do:
git commit -c $sha1
This works fine, but is unnecessarily confusing and annoying
for the user to type, when:
git commit -c $the_thing_you_called_cherry_pick_with
works just as well.

This gets rid of the fixed-size buffer and an unchecked
sprintf. That sprintf is actually OK as the only
variable-sized thing put in it is an abbreviated sha1, which
is bounded at 40 characters. However, the next patch will
change that to something unbounded.
Note that this function now returns an allocated buffer
instead of a static one; however, it doesn't matter as the
only caller exits immediately.

Shell reports exit status only from the most downstream command
in a pipeline. In these tests, we want to make sure that the
command fails in a controlled way, and produces a correct error
message.
