518ef8f07f completion: Replace config --list with --get-regexp
James Bardin noted that the completion spewed warnings when no git config
file is present.  This is likely a bug to be fixed in git config, but it's
also good to simplify the completion code by using the --get-regexp option
as Jeff King pointed out.

05d3951ec9 git-archive: add '-o' as a alias for '--output'
The '-o' option is commonly used in many tools to specify the output file.
Typing '--output' every time is a bit too long to be a practical alternative
to redirecting output. But specifying the output name has the advantage of
making possible to guess the desired output format by filename extension.

f7835a251c preserve mtime of local clone
A local clone without hardlinks copies all objects, including dangling
ones, to the new repository. Since the mtimes are renewed, those
dangling objects cannot be pruned by "git gc --prune", even if they
would have been old enough for pruning in the original repository.

Instead, preserve mtime during copy. "git gc --prune" will then work
in the clone just like it did in the original.

2b7ca830c6 use write_str_in_full helper to avoid literal string lengths
In 2d14d65 (Use a clearer style to issue commands to remote helpers,
2009-09-03) I happened to notice two changes like this:

-	write_in_full(helper->in, "list\n", 5);
+
+	strbuf_addstr(&buf, "list\n");
+	write_in_full(helper->in, buf.buf, buf.len);
+	strbuf_reset(&buf);

IMHO, it would be better to define a new function,

    static inline ssize_t write_str_in_full(int fd, const char *str)
    {
           return write_in_full(fd, str, strlen(str));
    }

and then use it like this:

-       strbuf_addstr(&buf, "list\n");
-       write_in_full(helper->in, buf.buf, buf.len);
-       strbuf_reset(&buf);
+       write_str_in_full(helper->in, "list\n");

Thus not requiring the added allocation, and still avoiding
the maintenance risk of literal string lengths.
These days, compilers are good enough that strlen("literal")
imposes no run-time cost.

Transformed via this:

    perl -pi -e \
        's/write_in_full\((.*?), (".*?"), \d+\)/write_str_in_full($1, $2)/'\
      $(git grep -l 'write_in_full.*"')

0c3d3ac352 rebase: use plumbing to show dirty state
Commit 4cfbe06 introduced the use of "git diff" to show
dirty state in a format more familiar to users. However, it
should have used the plumbing "git diff-files" instead.

Not only is it good practice in general to use plumbing in
scripts, but in this case we really don't want the automatic
pager to kick in for an error message.

Not only does sending a HEAD request before we do a GET incur a

methods is capable of handling any errors on its own).

0460dba4b4 Makefile: Add NEEDS_CRYPTO_WITH_SSL
The Makefile comment for NEEDS_SSL_WITH_CRYPTO says to define it "if
you need -lcrypto with -lssl (Darwin)."  However, what it actually
does is add -lssl when you use -lcrypto and not the other way around.
However, libcrypto contains a majority of the ERR_* functions from
OpenSSL (at least on OS X) so we need it both ways.

So, add NEEDS_CRYPTO_WITH_SSL which adds -lcrypto to the OpenSSL link
flags and clarify the difference between it and NEEDS_SSL_WITH_CRYPTO.

c21398be6d gitk: Show diff of commits at end of compare-commits output
When comparing a string of commits, when we find two non-merge commits
that differ, we now write the two commits to files and diff the files.
This pulls out the logic for creating a temporary directory from
external_diff into a separate procedure so that the new diffcommits
procedure can use it.

Because the diff command returns an exit status of 1 when the files
differ, and Tcl treats that as an error, this adds catch {} around the
close statements in getblobdiffline.

At present this only removes the temporary files when gitk exits.  It
should remove them when the diff is done.

fadd069d03 merge-recursive: give less scary messages when merge did not start
When unpack_trees() three-way merge logic is called from merge-recursive
and finds that local changes are going to be clobbered, its plumbing level
messages were given as errors first, and then the merge driver added even
more scary message "fatal: merging of trees <a long object name> and
<another long object name> failed".

This is most often encountered by new CVS/SVN migrants who are used to
start a merge from a dirty work tree.  The saddest part is that the merge
refused to run to prevent _any_ damage from being done to your work tree
when these messages are given, but the messages look a lot more scarier
than the conflicted case where the user needs to resolve them.

Replace the plumbing level messages so that they talk about what it is
protecting the user from, and end the messages with "Aborting." so that it
becomes clear that the command did not do any harm.

The final "merging of trees failed" message is superfluous, unless you are
interested in debugging the merge-recursive itself.  Squelch the current
die() message by default, but allow it to help people who debug git with
verbosity level 4 or greater.

Unless there is some bug, an inner merge that does not touch working tree
should not trigger any such error, so emit the current die() message when
we see an error return from it while running the inner merge, too.  It
would also help people who debug git.

We could later add instructions on how to recover (i.e. "stash changes
away or commit on a side branch and retry") instead of the silent
exit(128) I have in this patch, and then use Peff's advice.* mechanism to
squelch it (e.g. "advice.mergeindirtytree"), but they are separate topics.

push to "ssh://example.org/path/to/repo", without manually configuring
pushurl for that remote.

Includes documentation for the new option, bash completion updates, and

apply to fetch, and that it is ignored when pushURL is already defined).
