When execvp reports EACCES, it can be one of two things:
1. We found a file to execute, but did not have
permissions to do so.
2. We did not have permissions to look in some directory
in the $PATH.
In the former case, we want to consider this a
permissions problem and report it to the user as such (since
getting this for something like "git foo" is likely a
configuration error).
In the latter case, there is a good chance that the
inaccessible directory does not contain anything of
interest. Reporting "permission denied" is confusing to the
user (and prevents our usual "did you mean...?" lookup). It
also prevents git from trying alias lookup, since we do so
only when an external command does not exist (not when it
exists but has an error).
This patch detects EACCES from execvp, checks whether we are
in case (2), and if so converts errno to ENOENT. This
behavior matches that of "bash" (but not of simpler shells
that use execvp more directly, like "dash").

The user can say "git push" without specifying any refspec. When using
the "upstream" semantics via the push.default configuration, the user
wants to update the "upstream" branch of the current branch, which is the
branch at a remote repository the current branch is set to integrate with,
with this command.
However, there are cases that such a "git push" that uses the "upstream"
semantics does not make sense:
- The current branch does not have branch.$name.remote configured. By
definition, "git push" that does not name where to push to will not
know where to push to. The user may explicitly say "git push $there",
but again, by definition, no branch at repository $there is set to
integrate with the current branch in this case and we wouldn't know
which remote branch to update.
- The current branch does have branch.$name.remote configured, but it
does not specify branch.$name.merge that names what branch at the
remote this branch integrates with. "git push" knows where to push in
this case (or the user may explicitly say "git push $remote" to tell us
where to push), but we do not know which remote branch to update.
- The current branch does have its remote and upstream branch configured,
but the user said "git push $there", where $there is not the remote
named by "branch.$name.remote". By definition, no branch at repository
$there is set to integrate with the current branch in this case, and
this push is not meant to update any branch at the remote repository
$there.
The first two cases were already checked correctly, but the third case was
not checked and we ended up updating the branch named branch.$name.merge
at repository $there, which was totally bogus.

When "add -p" sees an unmerged entry, it shows the combined
diff and then immediately skips the hunk. This can be
confusing in a variety of ways, depending on whether there
are other changes to stage (in which case you get the
superfluous combined diff output in between other hunks) or
not (in which case you get the combined diff and the program
exits immediately, rather than seeing "No changes").
The current behavior was not planned, and is just what the
implementation happens to do. Instead, let's explicitly
remove unmerged entries from our list of modified files, and
print a warning that we are ignoring them.
We can cheaply find which entries are unmerged by adding
"--raw" output to the "diff-files --numstat" we already run.
There is one non-obvious thing we must change when parsing
this combined output. Before this patch, when we saw a
numstat line for a file that did not have index changes, we
would create a new record with 'unchanged' in the 'INDEX'
field. Because "--raw" comes before "--numstat", we must
move this special-case down to the raw-line case (and it is
sufficient to move it rather than handle it in both places,
since any file which has a --numstat will also have a --raw
entry).

Merge-recursive detects renames so that if one side modifies
"foo" and the other side moves it to "bar", the modification
is applied to "bar". However, our rename detection is based
on content analysis, it can be wrong (i.e., two files were
not intended as a rename, but just happen to have the same
or similar content).
This is quite rare if the files actually contain content,
since two unrelated files are unlikely to have exactly the
same content. However, empty files present a problem, in
that there is nothing to analyze. An uninteresting
placeholder file with zero bytes may or may not be related
to a placeholder file with another name.
The result is that adding content to an empty file may cause
confusion if the other side of a merge removed it; your
content may end up in another random placeholder file that
was added.
Let's err on the side of caution and not consider empty
files as renames. This will cause a modify/delete conflict
on the merge, which will let the user sort it out
themselves.

remove_dir_recursively() has a check to avoid removing the directory it
was asked to remove without recursing into it and report success when the
directory is the top level of a working tree of a nested git repository,
to protect such a repository from "clean -f" (without double -f). If a
working tree of a nested git repository is in a subdirectory of a toplevel
project, however, this protection did not apply by mistake; we forgot to
pass the REMOVE_DIR_KEEP_NESTED_GIT down to the recursive removal
codepath.
This requires us to also teach the higher level not to remove the
directory it is asked to remove, when the recursed invocation did not
remove the directory it was asked to remove due to a nested git
repository, as it is not an error to leave the parent directories of such
a nested repository.

When a manual notes merge is committed or aborted, we need to remove the
temporary worktree at .git/NOTES_MERGE_WORKTREE. However, removing the
entire directory is not good if the user ran the 'git notes merge
--commit/--abort' from within that directory. On Windows, the directory
removal would simply fail, while on POSIX systems, users would suddenly
find themselves in an invalid current directory.
Therefore, instead of deleting the entire directory, we delete everything
_within_ the directory, and leave the (empty) directory in place.
This would cause a subsequent notes merge to abort, complaining about a
previous - unfinished - notes merge (due to the presence of
.git/NOTES_MERGE_WORKTREE), so we also need to adjust this check to only
trigger when .git/NOTES_MERGE_WORKTREE is non-empty.
Finally, adjust the t3310 manual notes merge testcases to correctly handle
the existence of an empty .git/NOTES_MERGE_WORKTREE directory.

notes_merge_commit() only needs to list all entries (non-recursively)
under a directory, which can be easily accomplished with
opendir/readdir and would be more lightweight than read_directory().
read_directory() is designed to list paths inside a working
directory. Using it outside of its scope may lead to undesired effects.
Apparently, one of the undesired effects of read_directory() is that it
doesn't deal with being given absolute paths. This creates problems for
notes_merge_commit() when git_path() returns an absolute path, which
happens when the current working directory is in a subdirectory of the
.git directory.

unreasonable for a user to run "git notes merge --commit" there. But

When using word diff, the code sets the word_regex from various
defaults if it was not set already. The problem is that it does this
on the original diff_options, which will also be used in subsequent
diffs.
This means that when the word_regex is not given on the command line,
only the first diff for which a setting for word_regex (either from
attributes or diff.wordRegex) ever takes effect. This value then
propagates to the rest of the diff runs and in particular prevents
further attribute lookups.
Fix the problem of changing diff state once and for all, by working
with a _copy_ of the diff_options.

When lying the author name via GIT_AUTHOR_NAME environment variable

As the fast-import manual explains:
The value of <path> must be in canonical form. That is it must
not:
. contain an empty directory component (e.g. foo//bar is invalid),
. end with a directory separator (e.g. foo/ is invalid),
. start with a directory separator (e.g. /foo is invalid),
Unfortunately the "ls" command accepts these invalid syntaxes and
responds by declaring that the indicated path is missing. This is too
subtle and causes importers to silently misbehave; better to error out
so the operator knows what's happening.
The C, R, and M commands already error out for such paths.

This test asks for an impossible conversion to the system by
preparing an UTF-8 translation with characters that cannot be
expressed in ISO-8859-1, and then asking the message shown in
ISO-8859-1. Even though the behaviour against such a request is
undefined, it may be interesting to see what the system does, and
the purpose of this test is to see if there are platforms that
exhibit behaviour that we haven't seen.
The original recognized two known modes of behaviour:
- the key used to query the message catalog ("TEST: Old English
Runes"), saying "I cannot do that i18n".
- impossible characters replaced with ASCII "?", saying "I punt".
but they were treated totally differently. The test simply issued
an informational message "Your system punts on this one" for the
first error mode, while it diagnosed the latter as "Your system is
good; you pass!".
It turns out that Mac OS X exhibits a third mode of error behaviour,
to spew out the raw value stored in the message catalog. The test
diagnosed this behaviour as "broken", but it is merely trying to do
its best to respond to an impossible request by saying "I punt" in a
way that is slightly different from the second one.
Update the offending test to make it clear what is (and is not)
being tested, update the code structure so that newly discovered
error mode can easily be added to it later, and reword the message
that comes from a failing case to clarify that it is not the system
that is broken when it fails, but merely that the behaviour is not
something we have seen.
