"git cmd -h" outside a repository should error out cleanly for many
commands, but instead it hit a BUG(), which has been corrected.

t0012: verify that built-ins handle `-h` even without gitdir
checkout/fetch/pull/pack-objects: allow `-h` outside a repository
When there is no object to write .bitmap file for, "git

Because a deletion of ref would need to remove it from both the
loose ref store and the packed ref store, a delete-ref operation
that logically removes one ref may end up invoking ref-transaction
hook twice, which has been corrected.

refs: skip hooks when deleting uncovered packed refs
refs: do not execute reference-transaction hook on packing refs
refs: demonstrate excessive execution of the reference-transaction hook
refs: allow skipping the reference-transaction hook
refs: allow passing flags when beginning transactions
refs: extract packed_refs_delete_refs() to allow control of transaction

"receive-pack" checks if it will do any ref updates (various
conditions could reject a push) before received objects are taken
out of the temporary directory used for quarantine purposes, so
that a push that is known-to-fail will not leave crufts that a
future "gc" needs to clean up.
* cb/clear-quarantine-early-on-all-ref-update-errors:
receive-pack: purge temporary data if no command is ready to run

UNINTERESTING bit only along the first-parent chain.
* jz/rev-list-exclude-first-parent-only:
git-rev-list: add --exclude-first-parent-only flag
Unlike "git apply", "git patch-id" did not handle patches with
hunks that has only 1 line in either preimage or postimage, which

making the .midx data corrupt, has been fixed.

error", which has been corrected.
