The generic chdir() helper sets the PWD environment
variable, as that is what is used by p4 to know its
current working directory. Normally the shell would
do this, but in git-p4, we must do it by hand.
However, when the path contains a symbolic link,
os.getcwd() will return the physical location. If the
p4 client specification includes symlinks, setting PWD
to the physical location causes p4 to think it is not
inside the client workspace. It complains, e.g.
Path /vol/bar/projects/foo/... is not under client root /p/foo
One workaround is to use AltRoots in the p4 client specification,
but it is cleaner to handle it directly in git-p4.
Other uses of chdir still require setting PWD to an
absolute path so p4 features like P4CONFIG work. See
bf1d68f (git-p4: use absolute directory for PWD env
var, 2011-12-09).

This test fails when the p4 client root includes
a symlink. It complains:
Path /vol/bar/projects/foo/... is not under client root /p/foo
and dumps a traceback.

This adds a test for the fix in bf1d68f (git-p4: use absolute
directory for PWD env var, 2011-12-09). It is necessary to
set PWD to an absolute path so that p4 can find files referenced
by non-absolute paths, like the value of the P4CONFIG environment
variable.
P4 does not open files directly; it builds a path by prepending
the contents of the PWD environment variable.

Commit fea16b47b6 (Fri Jan 11 19:48:43 2013, Manlio Perillo,
git-completion.bash: add support for path completion), introduced a new
__gitcomp_file function that uses the bash builtin "compgen". The
function was redefined for ZSH in the deprecated section of
git-completion.bash, but not in the new git-completion.zsh script.
As a result, users of git-completion.zsh trying to complete "git add
fo<tab>" get an error:
git add fo__gitcomp_file:8: command not found: compgen
This patch adds the redefinition and removes the error.

Before 82dce99 (attr: more matching optimizations from .gitignore,
2012-10-15), .gitattributes did not have any special treatment of a
leading '!'. The docs, however, always said
The rules how the pattern matches paths are the same as in
`.gitignore` files; see linkgit:gitignore[5].
By those rules, leading '!' means pattern negation. So 82dce99
correctly determined that this kind of line makes no sense and should
be disallowed.
However, users who actually had a rule for files starting with a '!'
are in a bad position: before 82dce99 '!' matched that literal
character, so it is conceivable that users have .gitattributes with
such lines in them. After 82dce99 the unescaped version was
disallowed in such a way that git outright refuses to run(!) most
commands in the presence of such a .gitattributes. It therefore
becomes very hard to fix, let alone work with, such repositories.
Let's at least allow the users to fix their repos: change the fatal
error into a warning.

An earlier workaround designed to help people who list logical

On WinXP, the windows credential helper doesn't work at all (due to missing
Cred[Un]PackAuthenticationBuffer APIs). On Win7, the credential format used
by wincred is incompatible with native Windows tools (such as the control
panel applet or 'cmdkey.exe /generic'). These Windows tools only set the
TargetName, UserName and CredentialBlob members of the CREDENTIAL
structure (where CredentialBlob is the UTF-16-encoded password).
Remove the unnecessary packing / unpacking of the password, along with the
related API definitions, for compatibility with Windows XP.
Don't use CREDENTIAL_ATTRIBUTEs to identify credentials for compatibility
with Windows credential manager tools. Parse the protocol, username, host
and path fields from the credential's target name instead.
Credentials created with an old wincred version will have mangled or empty
passwords after this change.

The term "bisect" was translated as "halbieren", we should
translate it as "binäre Suche" (binary search). While at
there, we should leave "bisect run" untranslated since it's
