When refactoring the merge-base computation to reduce the pairwise
O(n*(n-1)) traversals to parallel O(n) traversals, the code forgot
that timestamp based heuristics needs each commit to have been
parsed. This caused an empty "git pull" to spend cycles, traversing
the history all the way down to 0 (because an unparsed commit object
has 0 timestamp, and any other commit object with positive timestamp
will be processed for its parents, all getting parsed), only to come
up with a merge message to be used.

When a tag T points at an object X that is of a type that is
different from what the tag records as, fsck should report it as an
error.
However, depending on the order X and T are checked individually,
the actual error message can be different. If X is checked first,
fsck remembers X's type and then when it checks T, it notices that T
records X as a wrong type (i.e. the complaint is about a broken tag
T). If T is checked first, on the other hand, fsck remembers that we
need to verify X is of the type tag records, and when it later
checks X, it notices that X is of a wrong type (i.e. the complaint
is about a broken object X).
The important thing is that fsck notices such an error and diagnoses
the issue on object X, but the test was expecting that we happen to
check objects in the order to make us detect issues with tag T, not
with object X. Remove this unwarranted assumption.

The 'a', 'i' and 'c' commands take a literal text to be added
followed by backslash, but then in the source we cannot indent
the literal text which makes it ugly.
We need to also remember to double the backslash inside double

Avoid these issues altogether by having an extra line in a template
file and generate test vectors by deleting the line or replacing the

Previously while reading the variable names in config files, there
was a 256 character limit with at most 128 of those characters being
used by the section header portion of the variable name. This
limitation was only enforced while reading the config files. It was
possible to write a config file that was not subsequently readable.
Instead of enforcing this limitation for both reading and writing,
remove it entirely by changing the var member of the config_file
struct to a strbuf instead of a fixed length buffer. Update all of
the parsing functions in config.c to use the strbuf instead of the
static buffer.
The parsing functions that returned the base length of the variable
name now return simply 0 for success and -1 for failure. The base
length information is obtained through the strbuf's len member.
We now send the buf member of the strbuf to external callback
functions to preserve the external api. None of the external
callers rely on the old size limitation for sizing their own buffers
so removing the limit should have no externally visible effect.

Currently "git am" does insane things if the mbox it is given contains
attachments with a MIME type that aren't "text/*".
In particular, it will still decode them, and pass them "one line at a
time" to the mail body filter, but because it has determined that they
aren't text (without actually looking at the contents, just at the mime
type) the "line" will be the encoding line (eg 'base64') rather than a
line of *content*.
Which then will cause the text filtering to fail, because we won't
correctly notice when the attachment text switches from the commit message
to the actual patch. Resulting in a patch failure, even if patch may be a
perfectly well-formed attachment, it's just that the message type may be
(for example) "application/octet-stream" instead of "text/plain".
Just remove all the bogus games with the message_type. The only difference
that code creates is how the data is passed to the filter function
(chunked per-pred-code line or per post-decode line), and that difference
is *wrong*, since chunking things per pre-decode line can never be a
sensible operation, and cannot possibly matter for binary data anyway.
This code goes all the way back to March of 2007, in commit 87ab799234
("builtin-mailinfo.c infrastrcture changes"), and apparently Don used to
pass random mbox contents to git. However, the pre-decode vs post-decode
logic really shouldn't matter even for that case, and more importantly, "I
fed git am crap" is not a valid reason to break *real* patch attachments.
If somebody really cares, and determines that some attachment is binary
data (by looking at the data, not the MIME-type), the whole attachment
should be dismissed, rather than fed in random-sized chunks to
"handle_filter()".

When adding a new submodule it can happen that .git/modules/<name> already
contains a submodule repo, e.g. when a submodule is removed from the work
tree and another submodule is added at the same path. But then the work
tree of the submodule will be populated using the existing repository and
not the one the user provided, which results in an incorrect work tree. On
the other hand the user might reactivate a submodule removed earlier, then
reusing that .git directory is the Right Thing to do.
As git can't decide what is the case, error out and tell the user she
should use either use a different name for the submodule with the "--name"
option or can reuse the .git directory for the newly added submodule by
providing the --force option (which only makes sense when the upstream
matches, so the error message lists all remotes of .git/modules/<name>).
In one test in t7406 the --force option had to be added to "git submodule
add", as that test re-adds a formerly removed submodule.

"git submodule add" initializes the name of a submodule to its path. This
was ok as long as the .git directory lived inside the submodule's work
tree, but since 1.7.8 it is stored in the .git/modules/<name> directory of
the superproject, making the submodule name survive the removal of the
submodule's work tree. This leads to problems when the user tries to add a
different submodule at the same path - and thus the same name - later, as
that will happily try to restore the submodule from the old repository
instead of the one the user specified and will lead to a checkout of the
wrong repository.
Add the new "--name" option to let the user provide a name for the
submodule. This enables the user to solve this conflict without having to
remove .git/modules/<name> by hand (which is no viable solution as it
makes it impossible to checkout a commit that records the old submodule
and populate it, as that will still check out the new submodule for the
same reason).
To achieve that the submodule's name is added to the parameter list of
the module_clone() helper function. This makes it possible to remove the
call of module_name() there because both callers of module_clone() already
know the name and can provide it as argument number two.

Currently using "git rm" on a submodule - populated or not - fails with
this error:
fatal: git rm: '<submodule path>': Is a directory
This made sense in the past as there was no way to remove a submodule
without possibly removing unpushed parts of the submodule's history
contained in its .git directory too, so erroring out here protected the
user from possible loss of data.
But submodules cloned with a recent git version do not contain the .git
directory anymore, they use a gitfile to point to their git directory
which is safely stored inside the superproject's .git directory. The work
tree of these submodules can safely be removed without losing history, so
let's teach git to do so.
Using rm on an unpopulated submodule now removes the empty directory from
the work tree and the gitlink from the index. If the submodule's directory
is missing from the work tree, it will still be removed from the index.
Using rm on a populated submodule using a gitfile will apply the usual
checks for work tree modification adapted to submodules (unless forced).
For a submodule that means that the HEAD is the same as recorded in the
index, no tracked files are modified and no untracked files that aren't
ignored are present in the submodules work tree (ignored files are deemed
expendable and won't stop a submodule's work tree from being removed).
That logic has to be applied in all nested submodules too.
Using rm on a submodule which has its .git directory inside the work trees
top level directory will just error out like it did before to protect the
repository, even when forced. In the future git could either provide a
message informing the user to convert the submodule to use a gitfile or
even attempt to do the conversion itself, but that is not part of this
change.
