Trivially shrinks the on-disk size of the index file to save both I/O and
checksum overhead.
The topic should give a solid base to build on further updates, with the
code refactoring in its earlier parts, and the backward compatibility
mechanism in its later parts.

When "git fetch" encounters repositories with too many references, the

You can already use relative paths in include.path, which
means that including "foo" from your global "~/.gitconfig"
will look in your home directory. However, you might want to
do something clever like putting "~/.gitconfig-foo" in a
specific repository's config file.

The command line parser choked "git cherry-pick $name" when $name can be
both revision name and a pathname, even though $name can never be a path
in the context of the command.
The issue the patch addresses is real, but the way it is implemented felt
unnecessarily invasive a bit. It may be cleaner for this caller to add
the "--" to the end of the argv_array it passes to setup_revisions().

The shell function that starts git-daemon wants to read the first line of
the daemon's stderr to ensure that it started correctly. Subsequent daemon
errors should be redirected to fd 4 (which is the terminal in verbose mode
or /dev/null in quiet mode). To that end the shell script used 'read' to
get the first line of output, and then 'cat &' to forward everything else
in a background process.
The problem is, that 'cat >&4 &' does not produce any output because the
shell redirects a background process's stdin to /dev/null. To have this
command invocation do anything useful, we have to redirect its stdin
explicitly (which overrides the /dev/null redirection).
The shell function connects the daemon's stderr to its consumers via a
FIFO. We cannot just do this:
read line <git_daemon_output
cat <git_daemon_output >&4 &
because after the first redirection the pipe is closed and the daemon
could receive SIGPIPE if it writes at the wrong moment. Therefore, we open
the readable end of the FIFO only once on fd 7 in the shell and dup from
there to the stdin of the two consumers.
