de3f2c7b46 user-manual: Fix 'http' -> 'HTTP' typos
HTTP is an acronym which has not (yet) made the transition to word
status (unlike "laser", probably because lasers are inherently cooler
than HTTP ;).

ddd2369c5c user-manual: Fix 'both: so' -> 'both; so' typo
The clause "so `git log ...` will return no commits..." is
independent, not a description of "both", so a semicolon is more
appropriate.

6978934713 Makefile: explicitly set target name for autogenerated dependencies
"gcc -MF depfile -MMD -MP -c -o path/to/file.o" produces a makefile
snippet named "depfile" describing what files are needed to build the
target given by "-o".  When ccache versions before v3.0pre0~187 (Fix
handling of the -MD and -MDD options, 2009-11-01) run, they execute

	gcc -MF depfile -MMD -MP -E

instead to get the final content for hashing.  Notice that the "-c -o"
combination is replaced by "-E".  The result is a target name without
a leading path.

Thus when building git with such versions of ccache with
COMPUTE_HEADER_DEPENDENCIES enabled, the generated makefile snippets
define dependencies for the wrong target:

	$ make builtin/add.o
	GIT_VERSION = 1.7.8.rc3
	    * new build flags or prefix
	    CC builtin/add.o
	$ head -1 builtin/.depend/add.o.d
	add.o: builtin/add.c cache.h git-compat-util.h compat/bswap.h strbuf.h \

After a change in a header file, object files in a subdirectory are
not automatically rebuilt by "make":

	$ touch cache.h
	$ make builtin/add.o
	$

Luckily we can prevent trouble by explicitly supplying the name of the
target to ccache and gcc, using the -MQ option.  Do so.

e28efb1998 apply: diagnose incomplete submodule object name better
"git am -3" uses this function to build a tree that records how the
preimage the patch was created from would have looked like.  An
abbreviated object name on the index line is ordinarily sufficient
for us to figure out the object name the preimage tree would have
contained, but a change to a submodule by definition shows an object
name of a submodule commit which our repository should not have, and
get_sha1_blob() is not an appropriate way to read it (or get_sha1()
for that matter).

Use get_sha1_hex() and complain if we do not find a full object name
there.

We could read from the payload part of the patch to learn the full
object name of the commit, but the primary user "git rebase" has
been fixed to give us a full object name, so this should suffice
for now.

e2afb0be90 apply: simplify build_fake_ancestor()
The local variable sha1_ptr in the build_fake_ancestor() function
used to either point at the null_sha1[] (if the ancestor did not
have the path) or at sha1[] (if we read the object name into the
local array), but 7a98869 (apply: get rid of --index-info in favor
of --build-fake-ancestor, 2007-09-17) made the "missing in the
ancestor" case unnecessary, hence sha1_ptr, when used, always points
at the local array.

Get rid of the unneeded variable, and restructure the if/else
cascade a bit to make it easier to read.  There should be no
behaviour change.

4ae6d4699f git-am: record full index line in the patch used while rebasing
Earlier, a230949 (am --rebasing: get patch body from commit, not
from mailbox, 2012-06-26) learned to regenerate patch body from the
commit object while rebasing, instead of reading from the rebase-am
front-end.  While doing so, it used "git diff-tree" but without
giving it the "--full-index" option.

This does not matter for in-repository objects; during rebasing, any
abbreviated object name should uniquely identify them.

But we may be rebasing a commit that contains a change to a gitlink,
in which case we usually should not have the object (it names a
commit in the submodule).  A full object name is necessary to later
reconstruct a fake ancestor index for them.

7dac3f8321 gpg: close stderr once finished with it in verify_signed_buffer()
Failing to close the stderr pipe in verify_signed_buffer() causes
git to run out of file descriptors if there are many calls to
verify_signed_buffer(). An easy way to trigger this is to run

 git log --show-signature --merges | grep "key"

on the linux kernel git repo. Eventually it will fail with

 error: cannot create pipe for gpg: Too many open files
 error: could not run gpg.

Close the stderr pipe so that this can't happen.

5047822347 t9902: protect test from stray build artifacts
When you have random build artifacts in your build directory, left
behind by running "make" while on another branch, the "git help -a"
command run by __git_list_all_commands in the completion script that
is being tested does not have a way to know that they are not part
of the subcommands this build will ship.  Such extra subcommands may
come from the user's $PATH.  They will interfere with the tests that
expect a certain prefix to uniquely expand to a known completion.

Instrument the completion script and give it a way for us to tell
what (subset of) subcommands we are going to ship.

Also add a test to "git --help <prefix><TAB>" expansion.  It needs
to show not just commands but some selected documentation pages.

Based on an idea by Jeff King.

1187ec99b9 git-cvsimport.txt: cvsps-2 is deprecated
git-cvsimport relies on version 2 of cvsps and does not work with the
new version 3.  Since cvsps 3.x does not currently work as well as
version 2 for incremental import, document this fact.

Specifically, there is no way to make new git-cvsimport that supports
cvsps 3.x and have a seamless transition for existing users since cvsps
3.x needs a time from which to continue importing and git-cvsimport does
not save the time of the last import or import into a specific namespace
so there is no safe way to calculate the time of the last import.
