e69dccf8cd merge script: allow custom strategies

custom strategy, 2008-07-30).

13dd255e4a merge script: improve log message subject
- point out remote-tracking branches as "remote branch
   'upstream/master'";
 - avoid misleading log messages when a tag and branch
   share a name.

This approximates the builtin merge command's behavior well
enough to pass the relevant tests.

Based roughly on v1.6.4.2~10^2 (merge: indicate remote tracking
branches in merge message, 2009-08-09) and v1.6.4.2~10^2~1 (merge: fix
incorrect merge message for ambiguous tag/branch, 2009-08-09).

6239af1c6c merge script: refuse to merge during merge
Check MERGE_HEAD and bail out if it exists.  Based on v1.6.3.3~3^2

64048d670b merge script: tweak unmerged files message to match builtin
Before:

	You are in the middle of a conflicted merge.

After:

	Merge is not possible because you have unmerged files.

I prefer the old message, but the new one is more consistent with
other commands and tests expect it.  In particular, without this
change the scripted merge does not pass t3030.

Based on v1.7.0-rc0~66^2 (Be more user-friendly when refusing to do
something because of conflict., 2010-01-12).

2102440c17 fmt-merge-msg -m to override merge title
Since v1.7.1.1~23^2 (merge: --log appends shortlog to message if
specified, 2010-05-11), the fmt-merge-msg backend supports custom text
to override the merge title "Merge <foo> into <bar>".

Expose this functionality for scripted callers.  Example:

 git fmt-merge-msg --log -m \
	"$(printf '%s\n' \
	    "Merge branch 'api-cleanup' into feature" \
	    '' \
	    'This is to use a few functions refactored for this purpose.'

df516fb558 t7600 (merge): do not launch gitk for --debug
Probably as a development aid, this test script runs gitk --all
to allow the driver to inspect history between tests when run
with --debug.  As a result, running all tests with --debug
requires closing a long series of gitk displays, one at a time.

Use git log --graph --oneline instead.  This way, the history is
available for viewing with "git show" but the test script finishes
without interaction.

Longer term, it would be nice to have an option to run a
user-specified command between tests.  This patch does not do
that.

d0736f7b81 git-notes: Run partial expensive test everywhere
The git-notes expensive timing test is only expensive because it
either did 10,100,1k and 10k iterations or nothing.

Change it to do 10 by default, with an option to run the expensive
version with the old GIT_NOTES_TIMING_TESTS=ZomgYesPlease variable.

Since nobody was ostensibly running this test under TAP the code had
bitrotted so that it emitted invalid TAP. This change fixes that.

The old version would also mysteriously fail on systems without
/usr/bin/time, there's now a check for that using the multiple test
prerequisite facility.

99d9050d25 t/README: Update "Skipping tests" to align with best practices
The example I initially added to "Skipping tests" wasn't very
good. We'd rather skip tests using the three-arg prereq form to the
test_* functions, not bail out with a skip message.

Change the documentation to reflect that, but retain the bailout
example under a disclaimer which explains that it's probably not a
good idea to use it.

    Probably belongs in a separate patch.  More importantly, it is missing
    &&-chaining (not a regression, but it is best to set a good example).

41be8ea223 tests: implicitly skip SYMLINKS tests using <prereq>
Change the tests that skipped due to unavailable SYMLINKS support to
use the three-arg prereq form of test_expect_success.

Now we get an indication of how many tests that need symlinks are
being skipped on platforms that don't support them.

e146d1772b Makefile: make gcov invocation configurable
If you customize CC to use a different version of gcc, most likely you
also need to use a different version of gcov.  Make it configurable.

e8b55f5c58 t/README: Add a note about the dangers of coverage chasing
Having no coverage at all is almost always a bad sign, but trying to
attain 100% coverage everywhere is usually a waste of time. Add a
paragraph to explain this to future test writers.
