Doc and message updates to teach users "bisect view" is a synonym
for "bisect visualize".

Correct start-up sequence so that a repository could be placed
immediately under the root directory again (which was broken at
around Git 2.13).

setup: avoid double slashes when looking for HEAD

diff: fix lstat() error handling in diff_populate_filespec()
Description of blame.{showroot,blankboundary,showemail,date}
configuration variables have been added to "git config --help".

config: document blame configuration
"git check-ref-format --branch @{-1}" bit a "BUG()" when run
outside a repository for obvious reasons; clarify the documentation
and make sure we do not even try to expand the at-mark magic in
such a case, but still call the validation logic for branch names.
* jc/check-ref-format-oor:
check-ref-format doc: --branch validates and expands <branch>
check-ref-format --branch: strip refs/heads/ using skip_prefix
check-ref-format --branch: do not expand @{...} outside repository
A recent regression in "git rebase -i" that broke execution of git
commands from subdirectories via "exec" insn has been fixed.
* jk/rebase-i-exec-gitdir-fix:
sequencer: pass absolute GIT_DIR to exec commands
A broken access to object databases in recent update to "git grep
--recurse-submodules" has been fixed.

grep: take the read-lock when adding a submodule
"git status --ignored -u" did not stop at a working tree of a
separate project that is embedded in an ignored directory and
listed files in that other project, instead of just showing the
directory itself as ignored.
* js/submodule-in-excluded:
status: do not get confused by submodules in excluded directories
"git commit", after making a commit, did not check for errors when
asking on what branch it made the commit, which has been correted.
* ao/check-resolve-ref-unsafe-result:
commit: check result of resolve_ref_unsafe
Some codepaths did not check for errors when asking what branch the
HEAD points at, which have been fixed.
* jk/misc-resolve-ref-unsafe-fixes:
worktree: handle broken symrefs in find_shared_symref()
log: handle broken HEAD in decoration check
remote: handle broken symrefs

Instead of using custom line comparison and hashing functions to
implement "moved lines" coloring in the diff output, use the pair
of these functions from lower-layer xdiff/ code.
* sb/diff-color-moved-use-xdl-recmatch:
diff.c: get rid of duplicate implementation
xdiff-interface: export comparing and hashing strings

t4015: check "negative" case for "-w --color-moved"
t4015: refactor --color-moved whitespace test
"auto" as a value for the columnar output configuration ought to
judge "is the output consumed by humans?" with the same criteria as
"auto" for coloured output configuration, i.e. either the standard
output stream is going to tty, or a pager is in use. We forgot the
latter, which has been fixed.
* kd/auto-col-with-pager-fix:
column: do not include pager.c
column: show auto columns when pager is active
TravisCI build updates.
* sg/travis-fixes:
travis-ci: don't build Git for the static analysis job
travis-ci: fix running P4 and Git LFS tests in Linux build jobs
The lower level code has been made to handle this case for the
sake of consistency. This has made this check redundant.
So, remove the redundant check.

strbuf_check_branch_ref() is the central place where many codepaths
see if a proposed name is suitable for the name of a branch. It was
designed to allow us to get stricter than the check_refname_format()
check used for refnames in general, and we already use it to reject
a branch whose name begins with a '-'. The function gets a strbuf
and a string "name", and returns non-zero if the name is not
appropriate as the name for a branch. When the name is good, it
places the full refname for the branch with the proposed name in the
strbuf before it returns.
However, it turns out that one caller looks at what is in the strbuf
even when the function returns an error. Make the function populate
the strbuf even when it returns an error. That way, when "-dash" is
given as name, "refs/heads/-dash" is placed in the strbuf when
returning an error to copy_or_rename_branch(), which notices that
the user is trying to recover with "git branch -m -- -dash dash" to
rename "-dash" to "dash".
While at it, use the same mechanism to also reject "HEAD" as a
branch name.

All other error messages from notes use stderr. Do the same when
alerting users of an unresolved notes merge.
Fix the output redirection in t3310 and t3320 as well. Previously, the
tests directed output to a file, but stderr was either not captured or
not sent to the file due to the order of the redirection operators.
