Since bb0a484 (mergetool: Skip autoresolved paths, 2010-08-17),
mergetool uses different ways of figuring out the list of files with
merge conflicts depending on whether rerere is active. If rerere is
active, mergetool will use 'git rerere status' to list the files with
remaining conflicts. However, the output from that command does not
list conflicts of types that rerere does not handle, such as
modify/remove conflicts.
Another problem with solely relying on the output from 'git rerere
status' is that, for new conflicts that are not yet known to rerere,
the output from the command will list the files even after adding them
to the index. This means that if the conflicts in some files have been
resolved and 'git mergetool' is run again, it will ask the user
something like the following for each of those files.
file1: file does not need merging
Continue merging other unresolved paths (y/n) ?
Solve both of these problems by replacing the call to 'git rerere
status' with a call to the new 'git rerere remaining' that was
introduced in the previous commit.

Breaks in a test assertion's && chain can potentially hide
failures from earlier commands in the chain.
Commands intended to fail should be marked with !, test_must_fail, or
test_might_fail. The examples in this patch do not require that.

Instead of using `cd dir && (...) && cd..` use `(cd dir && ...)`
This ensures that the test doesn't get caught in the subdirectory if
there is an error in the subshell.

When mergetool is run without path limiters it loops
over each entry in 'git ls-files -u'. This includes
autoresolved paths.
Teach mergetool to only merge files listed in 'rerere status'
when rerere is enabled.
There are some subtle but harmless changes in behavior.
We now call cd_to_toplevel when no paths are given.
We do this because 'rerere status' paths are always relative
to the root. This is beneficial for the non-rerere use as
well in that mergetool now runs against all unmerged files
regardless of the current directory.
This also slightly tweaks the output when run without paths
to be more readable.
The old output:
Merging the files: foo
bar
baz
The new output:
Merging:
foo
bar
baz

The previous fix to mergetool to use checkout-index instead of cat-file
broke running mergetool anywhere except the root of the repository.
This fixes it by using the correct relative paths for temporary files
and index paths.

Previously, git mergetool used cat-file which does not perform git to
worktree conversion. This changes mergetool to use git checkout-index
instead which means that the temporary files used for mergetool use the
correct line endings for the platform.

This patch changes every occurrence of "! git" -- with the meaning
that a git call has to gracefully fail -- into "test_must_fail git".
This is useful to
- make sure the test does not fail because of a signal,
e.g. SIGSEGV, and
- advertise the use of "test_must_fail" for new tests.
