We instead showed a combined diff that explains one of the randomly
chosen merge-base as if it were the result of merging all the other
merge bases and two tips given, which made no sense at all.
An alternative is to simply fail such a request, telling the user that
there are criss-cross merges, but it wouldn't be so helpful.

The ?: operator has a lower priority than |, so the implicit associativity
made the 6th argument of parse_options be PARSE_OPT_KEEP_DASHDASH if
keep_dashdash was true discarding PARSE_OPT_STOP_AT_NON_OPTION and
PARSE_OPT_SHELL_EVAL.

The original patch that became cfe370c (grep: do not segfault when -f is
used, 2009-10-16), was made against "maint" or newer branch back then, but
the fix addressed the issue that was present as far as in 1.6.4 series.
The maintainer backported the patch to the 1.6.4 maintenance branch, but
failed to notice that the new tests assumed the setup done by the script
in "maint", which did quite a lot more than the same test script in 1.6.4
series, and the output didn't match the expected result.
This should fix it.

In the usage message for "git commit", the --cleanup option appeared
at the end, as one of the "contents options":
usage: git commit [options] [--] <filepattern>...
...
Commit message options
...
Commit contents options
...
--allow-empty ok to record an empty change
--cleanup <default> how to strip spaces and #comments from message
This is confusing, in part because it makes it ambiguous whether
--allow-empty, just above, refers to an empty diff or an empty message.
Move --cleanup into the 'message options' group. Also add a pair of
comments to prevent similar oversights in the future.

Currently, when there is an invalid command, the rest of the line is
still treated as if the command had been valid, i.e. rebase -i attempts
to produce a patch, using the next argument as a SHA1 name. If there is
no next argument or an invalid one, very confusing error messages
appear (the line was '.'; path to git-rebase-todo substituted):
Unknown command: .
fatal: ambiguous argument 'Please fix this in the file $somefile.':
unknown revision or path not in the working tree.
Use '--' to separate paths from revisions
fatal: Not a valid object name Please fix this in the file $somefile.
fatal: bad revision 'Please fix this in the file $somefile.'
Instead, verify the validity of the remaining line and error out earlier
if necessary.

In all parts of git, .gitignore and other exclude files
impact only how we treat untracked files; they should have
no effect on files listed in the index.
This behavior was originally implemented very early on in
9ff768e, but only for --exclude-from. Later, commit 63d285c
accidentally caused us to trigger the behavior for
--exclude-per-directory.
This patch totally ignores excludes for files found in the
index. This means we are reversing the original intent of
9ff768e, while at the same time fixing the accidental
behavior of 63d285c. This is a good thing, though, as the
way that 9ff768e behaved does not really make sense with the
way exclusions are used in modern git.

When ls-files was called with -i but no exclude pattern, it was
calling fprintf(stderr, "...", NULL) and then exiting. On Solaris,
passing NULL into fprintf was causing a segfault. On glibc systems,
it was simply producing incorrect output (eg: "(null)": ...). The
NULL pointer was a result of argv[0] not being preserved by the option
parser. Instead of requesting that the option parser preserve
argv[0], use die() with a constant string.
A trigger for this bug was: `git ls-files -i`

When reading the "raw format" timestamp from the input stream, make sure
that the timezone offset is a reasonable value by imitating 7122f82
(date.c: improve guess between timezone offset and year., 2006-06-08).
We _might_ want to also check if the timestamp itself is reasonable, but

When running "git show-branch" without any parameter in a repository that
has showbranch.default defined, we used to rely on the fact that our
handcrafted option parsing loop never looked at av[0].
The array of default strings had the first real command line argument in
default_arg[0], but the option parser wanted to look at the array starting
at av[1], so we assigned the address of -1th element to av to force the
loop start working from default_arg[0].
This no longer worked since 5734365 (show-branch: migrate to parse-options
API, 2009-05-21), as parse_options_start() saved the incoming &av[0] in
its ctx->out and later in parse_options_end() it did memmove to ctx->out
(with ctx->cpidx == 0), overwriting the memory before default_arg[] array.
I am not sure if this is a bug in parse_options(), or a bug in the caller,
and tonight I do not have enough concentration to figure out which. In
any case, this patch works the issue around.

Make http.c::fetch_pack_index() no longer check for the remote pack
with a HEAD request before fetching the corresponding pack index file.
Not only does sending a HEAD request before we do a GET incur a
performance penalty, it does not offer any significant error-
prevention advantages (pack fetching in the *_http_pack_request()
methods is capable of handling any errors on its own).
