Commit 28fcc0b (pathspec: avoid the need of "--" when wildcard is used -
2015-05-02) changes how the disambiguation rules work. This patch adds
some tests to demonstrate, basically, if wildcard characters are in an
argument:
- if the argument is valid extended sha-1 syntax, "--" must be used
- otherwise the argument is considered a path, even without "--"
And wildcard can appear in extended sha-1 syntax, either as part of
regex in ":/<regex>" or as the literal path in ":<path>". The latter
case is less likely to happen in real world. But if you do ":/" a lot,
you may need to type "--" more.

When "--" is lacking from the command line and a command can take
both revs and paths, the idea is if an argument can be seen as both
an extended SHA-1 and a path, then "--" is required or git refuses
to continue. It's currently implemented as:
(1) if an argument is rev, then it must not exist in worktree
(2) else, it must exist in worktree
(3) else, "--" is required.
These rules work for literal paths, but when non-literal pathspec is
involved, it almost always requires the user to add "--" because it
fails (2) and (1) is really rarely met (take "*.c" for example, (1)
is met if there is a ref named "*.c").
This patch modifies the rules a bit by considering any valid (*)
wildcard pathspec "exist in worktree". The rules become:
(1) if an arg is a rev, then it must either exist in worktree or
not be a valid wildcard pathspec.
(2) else, it either exists in worktree or is a wildcard pathspec
(3) else, "--" is required.
With the new rules, "--" is not needed most of the time when
wildcard pathspec is involved.

The only changes are to the README files, most notably the list of

An earlier update to the parser that disects a URL broke an
address, followed by a colon, followed by an empty string (instead
of the port number), e.g. ssh://example.com:/path/to/repo.

The "git push --signed" protocol extension did not limit what the
"nonce" that is a server-chosen string can contain or how long it
can be, which was unnecessarily lax. Limit both the length and the
alphabet to a reasonably small space that can still have enough
entropy.

This reverts commit 2bf15a3330, whose
intention was good, but the verbosity levels used in merge-recursive
turns out to be rather uneven. For example, a merge of two branches
with conflicting submodule updates used to report CONFLICT: output
with --quiet but no longer (which *is* desired), while the final
"Automatic merge failed; fix conflicts and then commit" message is
still shown even with --quiet (which *is* inconsistent).
Originally reported by Bryan Turner; it is too early to declare what
the concensus is, but it seems that we would need to level the
verbosity levels used in merge strategy backends before we can go
forward. In the meantime, we'd revert to the old behaviour until
that happens.
