Work around dash incompatibility by not using "${name%'^{}'}".
Noticed by Jeff King; dash seems to mistake the closing brace
inside the single quote as the terminating brace for parameter
expansion.

This patch clarifies the meaning of the branch.*.merge option.
Previously, if branch.*.merge was specified but did not match any
ref, the message "No changes." was not really helpful regarding
the misconfiguration. This patch adds a warning for this.

There was a little bug in the brace expansion which should remove
the ^{} from the tagname. It used ${name#'^{}'} instead of $(name%'^{}'},
the difference is that '#' will remove the given pattern only from the
beginning of a string and '%' only from the end of a string.

Building on top of the earlier refspec glob pattern enhancement,
this allows a glob pattern to say the updates should be forced
by prefixing it with '+' as usual, like this:
Pull: +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/*

This adds Andy's refspec glob. You can have a single line:
Pull: refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/*
in your ".git/remotes/origin" and say "git fetch" to retrieve
all refs under heads/ at the remote side to remotes/origin/ in
the local repository.

If in branch "foo" and this in config:
[branch "foo"]
merge=bar
"git fetch": fetch from the default repository and program the "bar"
branch to be merged with pull.

Now you can say
[remote.junio]
url = git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/git/git.git
fetch = next:next
in your .git/config.

The regexp on the right hand side of expr : operator somehow was
broken.
expr 'z+pu:refs/tags/ko-pu' : 'z\+\(.*\)'
does not strip '+'; write 'z+\(.*\)' instead.
We probably should switch to shell based substring post 1.3.0;
that's not bashism but just POSIX anyway.

Some words, e.g., `match', are special to expr(1), and cause strange
parsing effects. Track down all uses of expr and mangle the arguments
so that this isn't a problem.

We can now easily fetch and merge things from heads in the
refs/remotes/ hierarchy in remote repositories.
The refs/remotes/ hierarchy is likely to become the standard for
tracking foreign SCMs, as well as the location of Pull: targets
for tracking remote branches in newly cloned repositories.

There is no reason to use git-sh-setup from git-ls-remote.
git-parse-remote can help the caller to use .git/remotes
shortcut if it is run inside a git repository, but can still be
useful outside a git repositoryas long as the caller does not
use any shortcut. Use "git-rev-parse --git-dir" to figure out
where the GIT_DIR is, instead of using git-sh-setup.
This also makes "git-ls-remote origin" to work from inside a
subdirectory of a git managed repository as a side effect.

Using git-check-ref-format, make sure we do not create refs with
funny names when cloning from elsewhere (clone-pack), fast forwarding
local heads (git-fetch), or somebody pushes into us (receive-pack).
Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
The refspecs specified in the .git/remotes/<remote> on the "Pull: "
lines are for fetching multiple heads in one go, but most of the time
making an Octopus out of them is not what is wanted. Make git-fetch
leave the marker in .git/FETCH_HEAD file so that later stages can
tell which heads are for merging and which are not.
Tom Prince made me realize how stupid the original behaviour was.

For local operations and downloading and uploading via git aware protocols,
use of $GIT_OBJECT_DIRECTORY/info/alternates is recommended on the server
side for big projects that are derived from another one (like Linux kernel).
However, dumb protocols and rsync transport needs to resolve this on the
client end, which we did not bother doing until this week.
I noticed we use "rsync -z" but most of our payload is already compressed,
which was not quite right. This commit also fixes it.

As promised, this is the "big tool rename" patch. The primary differences
since 0.99.6 are:
(1) git-*-script are no more. The commands installed do not
have any such suffix so users do not have to remember if
something is implemented as a shell script or not.
(2) Many command names with 'cache' in them are renamed with
'index' if that is what they mean.
There are backward compatibility symblic links so that you and
Porcelains can keep using the old names, but the backward
compatibility support is expected to be removed in the near
future.
