A P4 repository can get into a state where it contains a file with
type UTF-16 that does not contain a valid UTF-16 BOM. If git-p4
attempts to retrieve the file then the process crashes with a
"Translation of file content failed" error.
More info here: http://answers.perforce.com/articles/KB/3117
Fix this by detecting this error and retrieving the file as binary
instead. The result in Git is the same.
Known issue: This works only if git-p4 is executed in verbose mode.
In normal mode no exceptions are thrown and git-p4 just exits.

Improve the documentation of commands taking optional arguments in two
ways:
* Documents the behavior of '-O' (for grep) and '-S' (for commands
creating commits) when used without the optional argument.
* Document the syntax of these options.
For the second point, the behavior is documented in gitcli(7), but it is
easy for users to miss, and hard for the same user to understand why e.g.
"git status -u no" does not work.
Document this explicitly in the documentation of each short option having
an optional argument: they are the most error prone since there is no '='
sign between the option and its argument.

While commit 9f673f9 (gc: config option for running --auto in
background - 2014-02-08) helps reduce some complaints about 'gc
--auto' hogging the terminal, it creates another set of problems.
The latest in this set is, as the result of daemonizing, stderr is
closed and all warnings are lost. This warning at the end of cmd_gc()
is particularly important because it tells the user how to avoid "gc
--auto" running repeatedly. Because stderr is closed, the user does
not know, naturally they complain about 'gc --auto' wasting CPU.
Daemonized gc now saves stderr to $GIT_DIR/gc.log. Following gc --auto
will not run and gc.log printed out until the user removes gc.log.

The revision.c options-parser will parse "--first-parent"
for us, but the blame code does not actually respect it, as
we simply iterate over the whole list returned by
first_scapegoat(). We can fix this by returning a
truncated parent list.
Note that we could technically also do so by limiting the
return value of num_scapegoats(), but that is less robust.
We would rely on nobody ever looking at the "next" pointer
from the returned list.
Combining "--reverse" with "--first-parent" is more
complicated, and will probably involve cooperation from
revision.c. Since the desired semantics are not even clear,
let's punt on this for now, but explicitly disallow it to
avoid confusing users (this is not really a regression,
since it did something nonsensical before).

Ensure that when passing a pipe, the gnulib poll replacement will not
return 0 before the timeout has passed.
Not obeying the timeout (and merely returning 0) causes pathological
behavior when preparing a packfile for a repository and taking a
long time to do so. If poll were to return 0 immediately, this would
cause keep-alives to get sent as quickly as possible until the packfile
was created. Such deviance from the standard would cause megabytes (or
more) of keep-alive packets to be sent.
GetTickCount is used as it is efficient, stable and monotonically
increasing. (Neither GetSystemTime nor QueryPerformanceCounter have
all three of these properties.)

When submodule is a linked worktree, "git diff --submodule" and other
calls which directly access the submodule's object database do not correctly
calculate its path. Fix it by changing the git_pathdup_submodule() behavior,
to use either common or per-worktree directory.
Do it similarly as for parent repository, but ignore the GIT_COMMON_DIR
environment variable, because it would mean common directory for the parent
repository and does not make sense for submodule.
Also add test for functionality which uses this call.

Functions which directly operate submodule's object database do not
handle the case when the submodule is linked worktree (which are
introduced in c7b3a3d2fe). Instead of fixing the path calculation use
already existing strbuf_git_path_submodule() function without changing
overall behaviour. Then it will be possible to modify only that function
whenever we need to change real location of submodule's repository
content.
