On POSIX, rename() can replace files that are not writable. On Windows,
however, read-only files cannot be replaced without additional efforts:
We have to make the destination writable first.
Since the situations where the destination is read-only are rare, we do not
make the destination writable on every invocation, but only if the first
try to rename a file failed with an "access denied" error.

Originally --with-tree=<tree> was designed for the sole purpose of
checking if a given pathspec makes sense as a parameter to git-commit
using it in conjunction with --error-unmatch. It had logic to avoid
showing the same entry (one came from the original index, another from the
overlayed tree) twice so that it works with -c (i.e. "show-cached"), but
otherwise it was not designed to work with the flags such as -m, -d, etc.
This teaches the same logic to cover the codepath for -m and -d.

The example that tells users how to centralize the effort of the initial
git svn clone operation doesn't work properly. It uses rebase but that
only works if HEAD exists. This adds one extra command to create a
somewhat sensible HEAD that should work in all cases.

The -A option calls pack-objects with the --unpack-unreachable option so
that the unreachable objects in local packs are left in the local object
store loose. But if the -d option to repack was _not_ used, then these
unpacked loose objects are redundant and unnecessary.

The date/time parsing code was confused if the input time HH:MM:SS is
followed by fractional seconds. Since we do not record anything finer
grained than seconds, we could just drop fractional part, but there is a
twist.
We have taught people that not just spaces but dot can be used as word
separators when spelling things like:
$ git log --since 2.days
$ git show @{12:34:56.7.days.ago}
and we shouldn't mistake "7" in the latter example as a fraction and
discard it.
The rules are:
- valid days of month/mday are always single or double digits.
- valid years are either two or four digits
No, we don't support the year 600 _anyway_, since our encoding is based
on the UNIX epoch, and the day we worry about the year 10,000 is far
away and we can raise the limit to five digits when we get closer.
- Other numbers (eg "600 days ago") can have any number of digits, but
they cannot start with a zero. Again, the only exception is for
two-digit numbers, since that is fairly common for dates ("Dec 01" is
not unheard of)
So that means that any milli- or micro-second would be thrown out just
because the number of digits shows that it cannot be an interesting date.
A milli- or micro-second can obviously be a perfectly fine number
according to the rules above, as long as it doesn't start with a '0'. So
if we have
12:34:56.123
then that '123' gets parsed as a number, and we remember it. But because
it's bigger than 31, we'll never use it as such _unless_ there is
something after it to trigger that use.
So you can say "12:34:56.123.days.ago", and because of the "days", that
123 will actually be meaninful now.

Previously, when 'repack -a' was called and there were no packs in the local
repository without a .keep file, the repack would fall back to calling
pack-objects with '--unpacked --incremental'. This resulted in the created
pack file, if any, to be missing the packed objects in the alternate object
store. Test that this specific case has been fixed.

Earlier commit 5521883 (checkout: do not lose staged removal, 2008-09-07)
tightened the rule to prevent switching branches from losing local
changes, so that staged removal of paths can be protected, while
attempting to keep a loophole to still allow a special case of switching
out of an un-checked-out state.
However, the loophole was made a bit too tight, and did not allow
switching from one branch (in an un-checked-out state) to check out
another branch.
The change to builtin-checkout.c in this commit loosens it to allow this,
by not insisting the original commit and the new commit to be the same.
It also introduces a new function, is_index_unborn (and an associated
macro, is_cache_unborn), to check if the repository is truly in an
un-checked-out state more reliably, by making sure that $GIT_INDEX_FILE
did not exist when populating the in-core index structure. A few places
the earlier commit 5521883 added the check for the initial checkout
condition are updated to use this function.

When the "-v" option is given, we put diff of what is to be committed into
the commit template, and then strip it back out again after the user has
edited it.
We used to look for the diff by searching for the "diff --git a/"
header. With diff.mnemonicprefix set in the configuration, however, this
pattern does not match. The pattern is loosened to cover this case.
Also, if the user puts their own diff in the message (e.g., as a sample
output), then we will accidentally trigger the pattern, removing part of
their output.
We can avoid doing this stripping altogether if the user didn't use "-v"
in the first place, so we know that any match we find will be a false
positive.

When repack is called with either the -a or -A option, the user has
requested to repack all objects including those referenced by the
alternates mechanism. Currently, if there are no local packs without
.keep files, then repack will call pack-objects with the
'--unpacked --incremental' options which causes it to exclude alternate
packed objects. So, remove this fallback.

interpret #<head> as part of the URL, which make git bail out.
As branches origin from Cogito, it is the best to correct this by using
