cafd9828e8 doc lint: lint and fix missing "GIT" end sections
Lint for and fix the three manual pages that were missing the standard
"Part of the linkgit:git[1] suite" end section.

We only do this for the man[157] section documents (we don't have
anything outside those sections), not files to be included,
howto *.txt files etc.

We could also add this to the existing (and then renamed)
lint-gitlink.perl, but I'm not doing that here.

Obviously all of that fits in one script, but I think for something
like this that's a one-off script with global variables it's much
harder to follow when a large part of your script is some if/else or
keeping/resetting of state simply to work around the script doing two
things instead of one.

Especially because in this case this script wants to process the file
as one big string, but lint-gitlink.perl wants to look at it one line
at a time. We could also consolidate this whole thing and
t/check-non-portable-shell.pl, but that one likes to join lines as
part of its shell parsing.

So let's just add another script, whole scaffolding is basically:

    use strict;
    use warnings;
    sub report { ... }
    my $code = 0;
    while (<>) { ... }
    exit $code;

We'd spend more lines effort trying to consolidate them than just
copying that around.

38ecf75244 git-p4: add p4 submit hooks
The git command "commit" supports a number of hooks that support
changing the behavior of the commit command.  The git-p4.py program only
has one existing hook, "p4-pre-submit".  This command occurs early in
the process.  There are no hooks in the process flow for modifying
the P4 changelist text programmatically.

Adds 3 new hooks to git-p4.py to the submit option.

The new hooks are:
* p4-prepare-changelist - Execute this hook after the changelist file
  has been created. The hook will be executed even if the
  --prepare-p4-only option is set.  This hook ignores the --no-verify
  option in keeping with the existing behavior of git commit.

* p4-changelist - Execute this hook after the user has edited the
  changelist. Do not execute this hook if the user has selected the
  --prepare-p4-only option. This hook will honor the --no-verify,
  following the conventions of git commit.

* p4-post-changelist - Execute this hook after the P4 submission process
  has completed successfully. This hook takes no parameters and is
  executed regardless of the --no-verify option.  It's return value will
  not be checked.

The calls to the new hooks: p4-prepare-changelist, p4-changelist,
and p4-post-changelist should all be called inside the try-finally
block.

4935c458c2 git-p4: add --no-verify option
Add new command line option --no-verify:

Add a new command line option "--no-verify" to the Submit command of
git-p4.py.  This option will function in the spirit of the existing
--no-verify command line option found in git commit. It will cause the
P4 Submit function to ignore the existing p4-pre-submit.

Change the execution of the existing trigger p4-pre-submit to honor the
--no-verify option. Before exiting on failure of this hook, display
text to the user explaining which hook has failed and the impact
of using the --no-verify option.

Change the call of the p4-pre-submit hook to use the new run_git_hook
function. This is in preparation of additional hooks to be added.

89143ac28a git-p4: fully support unshelving changelists
The previous git-p4 unshelve support would check for changes
in Perforce to the files being unshelved since the original
shelve, and would complain if any were found.

This was to ensure that the user wouldn't end up with both the
shelved change delta, and some deltas from other changes in their
git commit.

e.g. given fileA:
      the
      quick
      brown
      fox

  change1: s/the/The/   <- p4 shelve this change
  change2: s/fox/Fox/   <- p4 submit this change
  git p4 unshelve 1     <- FAIL

This change teaches the P4Unshelve class to always create a parent
commit which matches the P4 tree (for the files being unshelved) at
the point prior to the P4 shelve being created (which is reported
in the p4 description for a shelved changelist).

That then means git-p4 can always create a git commit matching the
P4 shelve that was originally created, without any extra deltas.

The user might still need to use the --origin option though - there
is no way for git-p4 to work out the versions of all of the other
*unchanged* files in the shelve, since this information is not recorded
by Perforce.

Additionally this fixes handling of shelved 'move' operations.

Add an option to the git-p4 submit command to disable syncing
with Perforce.

This is useful for the case where a git-p4 mirror has been setup
on a server somewhere, running from (e.g.) cron, and developers
then clone from this. Having the local cloned copy also sync
from Perforce just isn't useful.

f55b87c1c7 git-p4: add options --commit and --disable-rebase
On a daily work with multiple local git branches, the usual way to
submit only a specified commit was to cherry-pick the commit on
master then run git-p4 submit.  It can be very annoying to switch
between local branches and master, only to submit one commit.  The
proposed new way is to select directly the commit you want to
submit.

Add option --commit to command 'git-p4 submit' in order to submit
only specified commit(s) in p4.

On a daily work developping software with big compilation time, one
may not want to rebase on his local git tree, in order to avoid long
recompilation.

Add option --disable-rebase to command 'git-p4 submit' in order to
disable rebase after submission.

123f631761 git-p4: add unshelve command
This can be used to "unshelve" a shelved P4 commit into
a git commit.

For example:

  $ git p4 unshelve 12345

The resulting commit ends up in the branch:
   refs/remotes/p4/unshelved/12345

If that branch already exists, it is renamed - for example
the above branch would be saved as p4/unshelved/12345.1.

git-p4 checks that the shelved changelist is based on files
which are at the same Perforce revision as the origin branch
being used for the unshelve (HEAD by default). If they are not,
it will refuse to unshelve. This is to ensure that the unshelved
change does not contain other changes mixed-in.

The reference branch can be changed manually with the "--origin"
option.

The change adds a new Unshelve command class. This just runs the
existing P4Sync code tweaked to handle a shelved changelist.

76a8788c14 doc: keep first level section header in upper case
When formatted as a man page, 1st section header is always in upper
case even if we write it otherwise. Make all 1st section headers
uppercase to keep it close to the final output.

This does affect html since case is kept there, but I still think it's
a good idea to maintain a consistent style for 1st section headers.

Some sections perhaps should become second sections instead, where
case is kept, and for better organization. I will update if anyone has
suggestions about this.

While at there I also make some header more consistent (e.g. examples
vs example) and fix a couple minor things here and there.

8cf422dbf1 git-p4: update multiple shelved change lists
--update-shelve can now be specified multiple times on the
command-line, to update multiple shelved changelists in a single
submit.

This then means that a git patch series can be mirrored to a
sequence of shelved changelists, and (relatively easily) kept in
sync as changes are made in git.

Note that Perforce does not really support overlapping shelved
changelists where one change touches the files modified by
another. Trying to do this will result in merge conflicts.

bc233524c9 git-p4: do not pass '-r 0' to p4 commands
git-p4 crashes when used with a very old p4 client version
that does not support the '-r <number>' option in its commands.

Allow making git-p4 work with old p4 clients by setting git-p4.retries to 0.

Alternatively git-p4.retries could be made opt-in.
But since only very old, barely maintained p4 versions don't support
the '-r' option, the setting-retries-to-0 workaround would do.

The "-r retries" option is present in Perforce 2012.2 Command Reference,
but absent from Perforce 2012.1 Command Reference.

89a6ecc55b git-p4: add config to retry p4 commands; retry 3 times by default
P4 commands can fail due to random network issues. P4 users can counter
these issues by using a retry flag supported by all p4 commands [1].

Add an integer Git config value `git-p4.retries` to define the number of
retries for all p4 invocations. If the config is not defined then set
the default retry count to 3.

systems such as Git LFS [1], Git Fat [2], Git Media [3], git-annex [4]
try to address this problem.

Add a generic mechanism to detect large files based on extension,
uncompressed size, and/or compressed size.

a9e38359e3 git-p4: add config git-p4.pathEncoding
Perforce keeps the encoding of a path as given by the originating OS.
Git expects paths encoded as UTF-8. Add a config to tell git-p4 what
encoding Perforce had used for the paths. This encoding is used to
transcode the paths to UTF-8. As an example, Perforce on Windows often
uses “cp1252” to encode path names.

96b2d54aee git-p4: use -m when running p4 changes
Simply running "p4 changes" on a large branch can result in a "too
many rows scanned" error from the Perforce server. It is better to
use a sequence of smaller calls to "p4 changes", using the "-m"
option to limit the size of each call.

51334bb094 git-p4: support excluding paths on sync
The clone subcommand has long had support for excluding
subdirectories, but sync has not. This is a nuisance,
since as soon as you do a sync, any changed files that
were initially excluded start showing up.

Move the "exclude" command-line option into the parent
class; the actual behavior was already present there so
it simply had to be exposed.

f84cb68463 git p4 doc: use two-line style for options with multiple spellings
Thomas Rast noticed the docs have a mix of styles when
it comes to options with multiple spellings.  Standardize
the couple in git-p4.txt that are odd.

Instead of:
  -n, --dry-run::

Do this:
  -n::
  --dry-run::

d6ac1d2120 Change "remote tracking" to "remote-tracking"
Fix a typo ("remote remote-tracking") going back to the big cleanup
in 2010 (8b3f3f84 etc). Also, remove some more occurrences of
"tracking" and "remote tracking" in favor of "remote-tracking".

e34c7e2b51 Merge branch 'ta/doc-no-small-caps'
Update documentation to change "GIT" which was a poor-man's small
caps to "Git".  The latter was the intended spelling.

Also change "git" spelled in all-lowercase to "Git" when it refers
to the system as the whole or the concept it embodies, as opposed to
the command the end users would type.

* ta/doc-no-small-caps:
  Documentation: StGit is the right spelling, not StGIT
  Documentation: describe the "repository" in repository-layout
  Documentation: add a description for 'gitfile' to glossary
  Documentation: do not use undefined terms git-dir and git-file
  Documentation: the name of the system is 'Git', not 'git'
  Documentation: avoid poor-man's small caps GIT

8c9e8b6e75 git p4: fix sync --branch when no master branch
It is legal to sync a branch with a different name than
refs/remotes/p4/master, and to do so even when master does
not exist.
