Add support for merging with ignoring line endings (specifically
--ignore-space-at-eol) when using recursive merging. This is
as a strategy-option, so that you can do:
git merge --strategy-option=ignore-space-at-eol <branch>
and
git rebase --strategy-option=ignore-space-at-eol <branch>
This can be useful for coping with line-ending damage (Xcode 3.1 has a
nasty habit of converting all CRLFs to LFs, and VC6 tends to just use
CRLFs for inserted lines).
The only option I need is ignore-space-at-eol, but while at it,
include the other xdiff whitespace options (ignore-space-change,
ignore-all-space), too.

In 1d848f6 (tree_entry_interesting(): allow it to say "everything is
interesting" 2007-03-21), both show_tree() and skip_uninteresting() were
modified to determine if all remaining tree entries were interesting.
However, the latter returns as soon as it finds the first interesting path,
without any way to signal to its caller (namely, diff_tree()) that all
remaining paths are interesting, making these extra checks useless.
Pass whether all remaining entries are interesting back to diff_tree(), and
whenever they are, have diff_tree() skip subsequent calls to
skip_uninteresting().
With this change, I measure speedups of 3-4% for the commands
$ git rev-list --quiet HEAD -- Documentation/

tree_entry_interesting() can signal to its callers not only if the given
entry matches one of the specified paths, but whether all remaining paths
will (or will not) match. When no paths are specified, all paths are
considered interesting, so intead of returning 1 (this path is interesting)
return 2 (all paths are interesting).
This will allow the caller to avoid calling tree_entry_interesting() again,
which theoretically should speed up tree walking. I am not able to measure
any actual gains in practice, but it certainly can not hurt and seems to
make the code more readable to me.

compat/regexec.c had a weird combination of function declaration in ANSI

static unsigned
re_copy_regs (struct re_registers *regs, regmatch_t *pmatch,
int nregs, int regs_allocated) internal_function;
static unsigned
re_copy_regs (regs, pmatch, nregs, regs_allocated)
struct re_registers *regs;
regmatch_t *pmatch;
int nregs, regs_allocated;
{ ... }
with this #define:
#ifndef _LIBC
# ifdef __i386__
# define internal_function __attribute ((regparm (3), stdcall))
# else
# define internal_function
# endif
#endif
The original version as shown above was fine, but with the ANSIfied
function definition and in the case where internal_function is not empty,
gcc identifies the declaration and definition as different and bails out.
Adding internal_function to the definition doesn't help (it results in
a syntax error); hence, remove it from the subset of declarations that gcc
flags as erroneous.

Teach the merge-recursive strategy a --patience option to use the
"patience diff" algorithm, which tends to improve results when
cherry-picking a patch that reorders functions at the same time as
refactoring them.
To support this, struct merge_options and ll_merge_options gain an
xdl_opts member, so programs can use arbitrary xdiff flags (think
"XDF_IGNORE_WHITESPACE") in a git-aware merge.
git merge and git rebase can be passed the -Xpatience option to
use this.

When 'git fetch' is supplied a single argument, it tries to match it
against a configured remote and then fetch the refs specified by the
named remote's fetchspec. Additionally, or alternatively, if the current
branch has a merge ref configured, and if the name of the remote supplied
to fetch matches the one in the branch's configuration, then git also adds
the merge ref to the list of refs to update.
If the argument to fetch does not specify a named remote, or if the name
supplied does not match the remote configured for the current branch, then
the current branch's merge configuration should not be considered.
git currently mishandles the case when the argument to fetch specifies a
GIT URL(i.e. not a named remote) and the current branch has a configured
merge ref. In this case, fetch should ignore the branch's merge ref and
attempt to fetch from the remote repository's HEAD branch. But, since
fetch only checks _whether_ the current branch has a merge ref configured,
and does _not_ check whether the branch's configured remote matches the
command line argument (until later), it will mistakenly enter the wrong
branch of an 'if' statement and will not fall back to fetch the HEAD branch.
The fetch ends up doing nothing and returns with a successful zero status.
Fix this by comparing the remote repository's name to the branch's remote
name, in addition to whether it has a configured merge ref, sooner, so that
fetch can correctly decide whether the branch's configuration is interesting
or not, and fall back to fetching from the remote's HEAD branch when
appropriate.
This fixes the test in t5510.

When 'git fetch' is supplied just a repository URL (not a remote name),
and without a fetch refspec, it should fetch from the remote HEAD branch
and update FETCH_HEAD with the fetched ref. Currently, when 'git fetch'
is called like this, it fails to retrieve anything, and does not update
FETCH_HEAD, if the current checked-out branch has a configured merge ref.
i.e. this fetch fails to retrieve anything nor update FETCH_HEAD:
git checkout master
git config branch.master.merge refs/heads/master
git fetch git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/git/git.git
but this one does:
git config --unset branch.master.merge
git fetch git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/git/git.git

When 'git checkout' reports uncommitted changes, it also does so for
submodules.
The default mode is now to look really hard into submodules, not only
for different commits, but also for modified files. Since this can be
pretty expensive when there are a lot (and large) submodules, there is
the diff.ignoreSubmodules option.
Let's respect that setting when 'git checkout' reports the uncommitted

We start the pager too early for several git commands, which results in
the errors sometimes going to the pager rather than show up as errors.
This is often hidden by the fact that we pass in '-X' to less by default,
which causes 'less' to exit for small output, but if you do
export LESS=-S
you can then clearly see the problem by doing
git log --prretty
which shows the error message ("fatal: unrecognized argument: --prretty")
being sent to the pager.
This happens for pretty much all git commands that use USE_PAGER, and then
check arguments separately. But "git diff" does it too early too (even
though it does an explicit setup_pager() call)
This only fixes it for the trivial "git log" family case.

This works fine for built-ins, but the config changes are
