Allowing any refname component to end with ".lock" is looking for
trouble; for example,
$ git br foo.lock/bar
$ git br foo
fatal: Unable to create '[...]/.git/refs/heads/foo.lock': File exists.
Therefore, do not allow any refname component to end with ".lock".

Also add tests of the new options. (Actually, one big reason to add
the new options is to make it easy to test check_ref_format(), though
the options should also be useful to other scripts.)
Interpret the result of check_ref_format() based on which types of
refnames are allowed. However, because check_ref_format() can only
return a single value, one test case is still broken. Specifically,
the case "git check-ref-format --onelevel '*'" incorrectly succeeds
because check_ref_format() returns CHECK_REF_FORMAT_ONELEVEL for this
refname even though the refname is also CHECK_REF_FORMAT_WILDCARD.
The type of check that leads to this failure is used elsewhere in
"real" code and could lead to bugs; it will be fixed over the next few
commits.

This reverts commit ffa69e61d3, reversing
changes made to 4a13c4d148.
Adding a new command line option to receive-pack and feed it from
send-pack is not an acceptable way to add features, as there is no
guarantee that your updated send-pack will be talking to updated
receive-pack. New features need to be added via the capability mechanism
negotiated over the protocol.

"svn dcommit --mergeinfo" replaces the svn:mergeinfo property in an
upstream SVN repository with the given text. The svn:mergeinfo
property may contain commits originating on multiple branches,
separated by newlines.
Cause space characters in the mergeinfo to be replaced by newlines,
allowing a user to create history representing multiple branches being
merged into one.
Update the corresponding documentation and add a test for the new
functionality.

Adds a --preserve-empty-dirs flag to the clone operation that will detect
empty directories in the remote Subversion repository and create placeholder
files in the corresponding local Git directories. This allows "empty"
directories to exist in the history of a Git repository.
Also adds the --placeholder-file flag to control the name of any placeholder
files created. Default value is ".gitignore".

'git log -- <path>' does not "show commits that affect the specified
paths" in a literal sense unless --full-history is given (for example,
a file that only existed on a side branch will turn up no commits at
all!).
Reword it to specify the actual intent of the filtering, and point to
the "History Simplification" section.

The current explanation of -e can be misread as allowing the user to say
I know 'git clean -XYZ' (substitute -XYZ with any option and/or
parameter) will remove paths A, B, and C, and I want them all removed
except for paths matching this pattern by adding '-e C' to the same
command line, i.e. 'git clean -e C -XYZ'.
But that is not what this option does. It augments the set of ignore rules
from the command line, just like the same "-e <pattern>" argument does
with the "ls-files" command (the user could probably pass "-e \!C" to tell
the command to clean everything the command would normally remove, except
for C). Also error out when both -x and -e are given with an explanation of
what -e means---it is a symptom of misunderstanding what -e does.
It also fixes small style nit in the parameter to add_exclude() call. The
current code only works because EXC_CMDL happens to be defined as 0.

fsck: improve committer/author check
fsck: add a few committer name tests
fast-import: check committer name more strictly
fast-import: don't fail on omitted committer name
fast-import: add input format tests
The current description of '-C' together with the analogy to 'git commit
-C' can lead to the wrong conclusion that '-C' copies notes between
objects. Make this clearer by rewording and pointing to 'copy'.
The example for attaching binary notes with 'git hash-object' followed
by 'git notes add -C' immediately raises the question: "Why not use 'git
notes add -F'?". Answer it (the latter is not binary-safe).

When working with submodules it is easy to forget to push a
submodule to the server but pushing a super-project that
contains a commit for that submodule. The result is that the
superproject points at a submodule commit that is not available
on the server.
This adds the option --recurse-submodules=check to push. When
using this option git will check that all submodule commits that
are about to be pushed are present on a remote of the submodule.
To be able to use a combined diff, disabling a diff callback has
been removed from combined-diff.c.

fast-import command-line option --import-marks-if-exists was introduced
in commit dded4f1 (fast-import: Introduce --import-marks-if-exists, 2011-01-15)
--import-marks option can be set via a "feature" command in a fast-import
stream and --import-marks-if-exists had support for such specification
from the very beginning too due to some shared codebase. Though the
documentation for this feature wasn't written in dded4f1.
Add the documentation for "feature import-marks-if-exists=<file>". Also add
a minimalistic test for it.
