62b42d3487 docs: fix some antique example output
These diff-index and diff-tree sample outputs date back to
the first month of git's existence. The output format has
changed slightly since then, so let's have it match the
current output.

715e716a1b docs: make sure literal "->" isn't converted to arrow
Recent versions of asciidoc will treat "->" as a
single-glyph arrow symbol, unless it is inside a literal
code block. This is a problem if we are discussing literal
output and want to show the ASCII characters.

Our usage falls into three categories:

  1. Inside a code block. These can be left as-is.

  2. Discussing literal output or code, but inside a
     paragraph. This patch escapes these as "\->".

  3. Using the arrow as a symbolic element, such as "use the
     Edit->Account Settings menu". In this case, the
     arrow symbol is preferable, so we leave it as-is.

fc17df0344 docs: update status --porcelain format
The --porcelain format was originally identical to the
--short format, but designed to be stable as the short
format changed. Since this was written, the short format
picked up a few incompatible niceties, but this description
was never changed.

Let's mention the differences. While we're at it, let's add
some sub-section headings to make the "output" section a
little easier to navigate.

9553d2b263 format-patch: preserve subject newlines with -k
In older versions of git, we used rfc822 header folding to
indicate that the original subject line had multiple lines
in it.  But since a1f6baa (format-patch: wrap long header
lines, 2011-02-23), we now use header folding whenever there
is a long line.

This means that "git am" cannot trust header folding as a
sign from format-patch that newlines should be preserved.
Instead, format-patch needs to signal more explicitly that
the newlines are significant.  This patch does so by
rfc2047-encoding the newlines in the subject line. No
changes are needed on the "git am" end; it already decodes
the newlines properly.

6bf139440c clean up calling conventions for pretty.c functions
We have a pretty_print_context representing the parameters
for a pretty-print session, but we did not use it uniformly.
As a result, functions kept growing more and more arguments.

Let's clean this up in a few ways:

  1. All pretty-print pp_* functions now take a context.
     This lets us reduce the number of arguments to these
     functions, since we were just passing around the
     context values separately.

  2. The context argument now has a cmit_fmt field, which
     was passed around separately. That's one less argument
     per function.

  3. The context argument always comes first, which makes
     calling a little more uniform.

This drops lines from some callers, and adds lines in a few
places (because we need an extra line to set the context's
fmt field). Overall, we don't save many lines, but the lines
that are there are a lot simpler and more readable.

f5799e05c0 git-submodule.sh: separate parens by a space to avoid confusing some shells
Some shells interpret '(( ))' according to the rules for arithmetic
expansion.  This may not follow POSIX, but is prevalent in commonly used
shells.  Bash does not have a problem with this particular instance of
'((', likely because it is not followed by a '))', but the public domain
ksh does, and so does ksh on IRIX 6.5.

So, add a space between the parenthesis to avoid confusing these shells.

5b38456ec7 mailinfo: always clean up rfc822 header folding
Without the "-k" option, mailinfo will convert a folded
subject header like:

  Subject: this is a
    subject that doesn't
    fit on one line

into a single line. With "-k", however, we assumed that
these newlines were significant and represented something
that the sending side would want us to preserve.

For messages created by format-patch, this assumption was
broken by a1f6baa (format-patch: wrap long header lines,
2011-02-23).  For messages sent by arbitrary MUAs, this was
probably never a good assumption to make, as they may have
been folding subjects in accordance with rfc822's line
length recommendations all along.

This patch now joins folded lines with a single whitespace
character. This treats header folding purely as a syntactic
feature of the transport mechanism, not as something that
format-patch is trying to tell us about the original
subject.

00ebc97748 t: test subject handling in format-patch / am pipeline
Commit a1f6baa (format-patch: wrap long header lines,
2011-02-23) changed format-patch's behavior with respect to
long header lines, but made no accompanying changes to the
receiving side. It was thought that "git am" would handle
these folded subjects fine, but there is a regression when
using "am -k".

Let's add a test documenting this. While we're at it, let's
give more complete test coverage to document what should be
happening in each case. We test three types of subjects:
a short one, one long enough to require wrapping, and a
multiline subject. For each, we test these three
combinations:

  format-patch | am
  format-patch -k | am
  format-patch -k | am -k

We don't bother testing "format-patch | am -k", which is
nonsense (you will be adding in [PATCH] cruft to each
subject).

This reveals the regression above (long subjects have
linebreaks introduced via "format-patch -k | am -k"),
as well as an existing non-optimal behavior (multiline
subjects are not preserved using "-k").

56d7c27af1 read_in_full: always report errors
The read_in_full function repeatedly calls read() to fill a
buffer. If the first read() returns an error, we notify the
caller by returning the error. However, if we read some data
and then get an error on a subsequent read, we simply return
the amount of data that we did read, and the caller is
unaware of the error.

This makes the tradeoff that seeing the partial data is more
important than the fact that an error occurred. In practice,
this is generally not the case; we care more if an error
occurred, and should throw away any partial data.

I audited the current callers. In most cases, this will make
no difference at all, as they do:

  if (read_in_full(fd, buf, size) != size)
	  error("short read");

However, it will help in a few cases:

  1. In sha1_file.c:index_stream, we would fail to notice
     errors in the incoming stream.

  2. When reading symbolic refs in resolve_ref, we would
     fail to notice errors and potentially use a truncated
     ref name.

  3. In various places, we will get much better error
     messages. For example, callers of safe_read would
     erroneously print "the remote end hung up unexpectedly"
     instead of showing the read error.

3eafdc961f remote: allow "-t" with fetch mirrors
Commit 13fc2c1 (remote: disallow some nonsensical option
combinations, 2011-03-30) made it impossible to use "remote
add -t foo --mirror". The argument was that specifying
specific branches is useless because:

  1. Push mirrors do not want a refspec at all.

  2. The point of fetch mirroring is to use a broad refspec
     like "refs/*", but using "-t" overrides that.

Point (1) is valid; "-t" with push mirrors is useless. But
point (2) ignored another side effect of using --mirror: it
fetches the refs directly into the refs/ namespace as they
are found upstream, instead of placing them in a
separate-remote layout.

So 13fc2c1 was overly constrictive, and disallowed
reasonable specific-branch mirroring, like:

  git remote add -t heads/foo -t heads/bar --mirror=fetch

which makes the local "foo" and "bar" branches direct
mirrors of the remote, but does not fetch anything else.

This patch restores the original behavior, but only for
fetch mirrors.

Otherwise, a negative error return becomes a very large read

a02cf90144 compat/fnmatch/fnmatch.c: give a fall-back definition for NULL
Somebody tried to compile fnmatch.c compatibility file on Interix and got
an error because no header included in the file on that platform defined
NULL.  It usually comes from stddef.h and indirectly from other headers
like string.h, unistd.h, stdio.h, stdlib.h, etc., but with the way we
compile this file from our Makefile, inclusion of the header files that
are expected to define NULL in fnmatch.c do not happen because they are
protected with "#ifdef STDC_HEADERS", etc. which we do not pass.

As the least-impact workaround, give a fall-back definition when none of
the headers define NULL.

The option can be used to check if read-tree with the same set of other
options like "-m" and "-u" would succeed without actually changing either
the index or the working tree.

The relevant tests in the t10?? range were extended to do a read-tree -n
before the real read-tree to make sure neither the index nor any local
files were changed with -n and the same exit code as without -n is
returned. The helper functions added for that purpose reside in the new
t/lib-read-tree.sh file.

The only exception is #13 in t1004 ("unlinking an un-unlink-able
symlink"). As this is an issue of wrong directory permissions it is not
detected with -n.

2c9078d05b unpack-trees: add the dry_run flag to unpack_trees_options
Until now there was no way to test if unpack_trees() with update=1 would
succeed without really updating the work tree. The reason for that is that
setting update to 0 does skip the tests for new files and deactivates the
sparse handling, thereby making that unsuitable as a dry run.

Add the new dry_run flag to struct unpack_trees_options unpack_trees().
Setting that together with the update flag will check if the work tree
update would be successful without doing it for real.

The only class of problems that is not detected at the moment are file
system conditions like ENOSPC or missing permissions. Also the index
entries of updated files are not as they would be after a real checkout
because lstat() isn't run as the files aren't updated for real.

call to save_user_format().

But it unconditionally checked user_format and not the string it was
given.  The only caller introduced by the change passes NULL, which
kept the bug unnoticed, until a new GCC noticed that there is an
assignment to fmt that is never used.
