The compiler can short-circuit the evaluation of conditions strung
together with logical OR operators instead of computing the resulting
bitmask with binary ORs. More importantly, this patch makes the
intent of the changed code clearer, because the logical context (as
opposed to binary context) becomes immediately obvious.
While we're at it, simplify the check for patch->is_rename in
builtin/apply.c a bit; it can only be 0 or 1, so we don't need a
comparison operator.

Most users seem to like having colors enabled, and colors can help
beginners to understand the output of some commands (e.g. notice
immediately the boundary between commits in the output of "git log").
Many tutorials tell the users to set color.ui=auto as a very first step,
which tend to indicate that color.ui=none is not the recommanded value,
hence should not be the default.
These tutorials would benefit from skipping this step and starting the
real Git manipulations earlier. Other beginners do not know about
color.ui=auto, and may not discover it by themselves, hence live with
black&white outputs while they may have preferred colors.
A few people (e.g. color-blind) prefer having no colors, but they can
easily set color.ui=never for this (and googling "disable colors in git"
already tells them how to do so), but this needs not occupy space in
beginner-oriented documentations.
A transition period with Git emitting a warning when color.ui is unset
would be possible, but the discomfort of having the warning seems
superior to the benefit: users may be surprised by the change, but not
harmed by it.
The default value is changed, and the documentation is reworded to
mention "color.ui=false" first, since the primary use of color.ui after
this change is to disable colors, not to enable it.

With this change, the output of the push (with push.default set to
current) changes subtly from:
$ git push
...
* [new branch] HEAD -> push-current-head
to:
$ git push
...
* [new branch] push-current-head -> push-current-head
This patch was written with a different motivation. There is a problem
unique to push.default = current:
# on branch push-current-head
$ git push
# on another terminal
$ git checkout master
# return to the first terminal
# the push tried to push master!
This happens because the 'git checkout' on the second terminal races
with the 'git push' on the first terminal. Although this patch does not
solve the core problem (there is still no guarantee that 'git push' on
the first terminal will resolve HEAD before 'git checkout' changes HEAD
on the second), it works in practice.

Setting push.default to current adds the refspec "HEAD" for the
transport layer to handle. If "HEAD" doesn't resolve to a branch (and
since no refspec rhs is specified), the push fails after some time with
a cryptic error message:
$ git push
error: unable to push to unqualified destination: HEAD
The destination refspec neither matches an existing ref on the remote nor
begins with refs/, and we are unable to guess a prefix based on the source ref.
error: failed to push some refs to 'git@github.com:artagnon/git'
Fail early with a nicer error message:
$ git push

Commit b60daf0 (Make git-prune-packed a bit more chatty. - 2007-01-12)
changes the meaning of prune_packed_objects()'s argument, from "dry
run or not dry run" to a bitmap.
It however forgot to update prune_packed_objects() caller in
builtin/prune.c to use new DRY_RUN macro. It's fine (for a long time!)
but there is a risk that someday someone may change the value of
DRY_RUN to something else and builtin/prune.c suddenly breaks. Avoid
that possibility.
While at there, change "opts == VERBOSE" to "opts & VERBOSE" as there
is no obvious reason why we only be chatty when DRY_RUN is not set.

remote branches. However, if there is a configured non-pattern refspec
that does not match any of the refspecs given on the command line then a
fatal error occurs.
Fix this by setting the "missing_ok" flag when calling get_fetch_map.

In order to make sure the cloned repository is good, we run "rev-list
--objects --not --all $new_refs" on the repository. This is expensive
on large repositories. This patch attempts to mitigate the impact in
this special case.
In the "good" clone case, we only have one pack. If all of the
following are met, we can be sure that all objects reachable from the
new refs exist, which is the intention of running "rev-list ...":
- all refs point to an object in the pack
- there are no dangling pointers in any object in the pack
- no objects in the pack point to objects outside the pack
The second and third checks can be done with the help of index-pack as
a slight variation of --strict check (which introduces a new condition
for the shortcut: pack transfer must be used and the number of objects
large enough to call index-pack). The first is checked in
check_everything_connected after we get an "ok" from index-pack.
"index-pack + new checks" is still faster than the current "index-pack
+ rev-list", which is the whole point of this patch. If any of the
conditions fail, we fall back to the good old but expensive "rev-list
..". In that case it's even more expensive because we have to pay for
the new checks in index-pack. But that should only happen when the
other side is either buggy or malicious.

This shortcut is not applied to shallow clones, partly because shallow
clones should have no more objects than a usual fetch and the cost of
rev-list is acceptable, partly to avoid dealing with corner cases when
grafting is involved.
This shortcut does not apply to unpack-objects code path either
because the number of objects must be small in order to trigger that
code path.

When we run a regular "git fetch" without arguments, we
update the tracking refs according to the configured
refspec. However, when we run "git fetch origin master" (or
"git pull origin master"), we do not look at the configured
refspecs at all, and just update FETCH_HEAD.
We miss an opportunity to update "refs/remotes/origin/master"
(or whatever the user has configured). Some users find this
confusing, because they would want to do further comparisons
against the old state of the remote master, like:
$ git pull origin master
$ git log HEAD...origin/master
In the currnet code, they are comparing against whatever
commit happened to be in origin/master from the last time
they did a complete "git fetch". This patch will update a
ref from the RHS of a configured refspec whenever we happen
to be fetching its LHS. That makes the case above work.
The downside is that any users who really care about whether
and when their tracking branches are updated may be
surprised.

Each "struct ref" has a boolean flag that is set by the
fetch code to determine whether the ref should be marked as
"not-for-merge" or not when we write it out to FETCH_HEAD.
It would be useful to turn this boolean into a tri-state,
with the third state meaning "do not bother writing it out
to FETCH_HEAD at all". That would let us add extra refs to
the set of refs to be stored (e.g., to store copies of
things we fetched) without impacting FETCH_HEAD.
This patch turns it into an enum that covers the tri-state
case, and hopefully makes the code more explicit and easier
to read.
