45d9414fa5 diff.*.xfuncname which uses "extended" regex's for hunk header selection
Currently, the hunk headers produced by 'diff -p' are customizable by
setting the diff.*.funcname option in the config file. The 'funcname' option
takes a basic regular expression. This functionality was designed using the
GNU regex library which, by default, allows using backslashed versions of
some extended regular expression operators, even in Basic Regular Expression
mode. For example, the following characters, when backslashed, are
interpreted according to the extended regular expression rules: ?, +, and |.
As such, the builtin funcname patterns were created using some extended
regular expression operators.

Other platforms which adhere more strictly to the POSIX spec do not
interpret the backslashed extended RE operators in Basic Regular Expression
mode. This causes the pattern matching for the builtin funcname patterns to
fail on those platforms.

Introduce a new option 'xfuncname' which uses extended regular expressions,
and advertise it _instead_ of funcname. Since most users are on GNU
platforms, the majority of funcname patterns are created and tested there.
Advertising only xfuncname should help to avoid the creation of non-portable
patterns which work with GNU regex but not elsewhere.

Additionally, the extended regular expressions may be less ugly and
complicated compared to the basic RE since many common special operators do
not need to be backslashed.

For example, the GNU Basic RE:

    ^[ 	]*\\(\\(public\\|static\\).*\\)$

becomes the following Extended RE:

    ^[ 	]*((public|static).*)$

5521883490 checkout: do not lose staged removal
The logic to checkout a different commit implements the safety to never
lose user's local changes.  For example, switching from a commit to
another commit, when you have changed a path that is different between
them, need to merge your changes to the version from the switched-to
commit, which you may not necessarily be able to resolve easily.  By
default, "git checkout" refused to switch branches, to give you a chance
to stash your local changes (or use "-m" to merge, accepting the risks of
getting conflicts).

This safety, however, had one deliberate hole since early June 2005.  When
your local change was to remove a path (and optionally to stage that
removal), the command checked out the path from the switched-to commit
nevertheless.

This was to allow an initial checkout to happen smoothly (e.g. an initial
checkout is done by starting with an empty index and switching from the
commit at the HEAD to the same commit).  We can tighten the rule slightly
to allow this special case to pass, without losing sight of removal
explicitly done by the user, by noticing if the index is truly empty when
the operation begins.

For historical background, see:

    http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/4641/focus=4646

This case is marked as *0* in the message, which both Linus and I said "it
feels somewhat wrong but otherwise we cannot start from an empty index".

6ecb1ee28a git-apply:--include=pathspec
This allows --include=pathspec, similar to --exclude=pathspec.

The rule when one or both of these are used is that the include/exclude
patterns are examined in the order they are given on the command line, and
the first match determines if a patch to each path is used or not.  Hence:

    $ git apply --include='specific.h' --exclude='*.h' <diff

would apply the patch to specific.h header file, but all other patches in
the input file to other header files are ignored.  A patch to a path that
does not match any include/exclude pattern is used by default if there is
no include pattern on the command line, and ignored if there is any
include pattern.

This originally came from Joe Perches, but both the design of the
semantics and the implementation have been redone complately.

7d66f21a1b for-each-ref: :short format for refname
Tries to shorten the refname to a non-ambiguous name.

Szeder Gábor noticed that the git bash completion takes a
tremendous amount of time to strip leading components from
heads and tags refs (i.e. refs/heads, refs/tags, ...). He
proposed a new atom called 'refbasename' which removes at
most two leading components from the ref name.

I myself, proposed a more dynamic solution, which strips off
common leading components with the matched pattern.

But the current bash solution and both proposals suffer from
one mayor problem: ambiguous refs.

A ref is ambiguous, if it resolves to more than one full refs.
I.e. given the refs refs/heads/xyzzy and refs/tags/xyzzy. The
(short) ref xyzzy can point to both refs.

( Note: Its irrelevant whether the referenced objects are the
  same or not. )

This proposal solves this by checking for ambiguity of the
shorten ref name.

The shortening is done with the same rules for resolving refs
but in the reverse order. The short name is checked if it
resolves to a different ref.

To continue the above example, the output would be like this:

heads/xyzzy
xyzzy

So, if you want just tags, xyzzy is not ambiguous, because it
will resolve to a tag. If you need the heads you get a also
a non-ambiguous short form of the ref.

To integrate this new format into the bash completion to get
only non-ambiguous refs is beyond the scope of this patch.

fd33777b78 diff --dirstat-by-file: count changed files, not lines
This new option --dirstat-by-file is the same as --dirstat, but it
counts "impacted files" instead of "impacted lines" (lines that are
added or removed).
