The gitattributes documentation claims that the pattern
rules are largely the same as for gitignore. However, the
rules for recursion are different.
In an ideal world, we would make them the same (if for
nothing else than consistency and simplicity), but that
would create backwards compatibility issues. For some
discussion, see this thread:
https://public-inbox.org/git/slrnkldd3g.1l4.jan@majutsushi.net/
But let's at least document the differences instead of
actively misleading the user by claiming that they're the
same.

The function ce_write_entry() uses a 'self-initialised' variable
construct, for the symbol 'saved_namelen', to suppress a gcc
'-Wmaybe-uninitialized' warning, given that the warning is a false
positive.
For the purposes of this discussion, the ce_write_entry() function has
three code blocks of interest, that look like so:
/* block #1 */
if (ce->ce_flags & CE_STRIP_NAME) {
saved_namelen = ce_namelen(ce);
ce->ce_namelen = 0;
}
/* block #2 */
/*
* several code blocks that contain, among others, calls
* to copy_cache_entry_to_ondisk(ondisk, ce);
*/
/* block #3 */
if (ce->ce_flags & CE_STRIP_NAME) {
ce->ce_namelen = saved_namelen;
ce->ce_flags &= ~CE_STRIP_NAME;
}
The warning implies that gcc thinks it is possible that the first
block is not entered, the calls to copy_cache_entry_to_ondisk()
could toggle the CE_STRIP_NAME flag on, thereby entering block #3
with saved_namelen unset. However, the copy_cache_entry_to_ondisk()
function does not write to ce->ce_flags (it only reads). gcc could
easily determine this, since that function is local to this file,
but it obviously doesn't.
In order to suppress this warning, we make it clear to the reader
(human and compiler), that block #3 will only be entered when the
first block has been entered, by introducing a new 'stripped_name'
boolean variable. We also take the opportunity to change the type
of 'saved_namelen' to 'unsigned int' to match ce->ce_namelen.

The 'self-initialised' variables construct (ie <type> var = var;) has
been used to silence gcc '-W[maybe-]uninitialized' warnings. This has,
unfortunately, caused MSVC to issue 'uninitialized variable' warnings.
Also, using clang static analysis causes complaints about an 'Assigned
value is garbage or undefined'.
There are six such constructs in the current codebase. Only one of the
six causes gcc to issue a '-Wmaybe-uninitialized' warning (which will
be addressed elsewhere). The remaining five 'init-self' gcc workarounds
are noted below, along with the commit which introduced them:
1. builtin/rev-list.c: 'reaches' and 'all', see commit 457f08a030
("git-rev-list: add --bisect-vars option.", 2007-03-21).
2. merge-recursive.c:2064 'mrtree', see commit f120ae2a8e ("merge-
recursive.c: mrtree in merge() is not used before set", 2007-10-29).
3. fast-import.c:3023 'oe', see commit 85c62395b1 ("fast-import: let
importers retrieve blobs", 2010-11-28).
4. fast-import.c:3006 'oe', see commit 28c7b1f7b7 ("fast-import: add a
get-mark command", 2015-07-01).
Remove the 'self-initialised' variable constructs noted above.

In order to echo a tab character, it's better to use printf instead of
"echo -e", because it's more portable (for instance, "echo -e" doesn't work
as expected on a Mac).
This solves the "fatal: Not a valid object name" error in git-filter-branch
when using the --state-branch option.
Furthermore, let's switch from "/bin/echo" to just "echo", so that the
built-in echo command is used where available.

On Windows, strftime() does not silently ignore invalid formats, but
warns about them and then returns 0 and sets errno to EINVAL.
Unfortunately, Git does not expect such a behavior, as it disagrees
with strftime()'s semantics on Linux. As a consequence, Git
misinterprets the return value 0 as "I need more space" and grows the
buffer. As the larger buffer does not fix the format, the buffer grows
and grows and grows until we are out of memory and abort.
Ideally, we would switch off the parameter validation just for
strftime(), but we cannot even override the invalid parameter handler
via _set_thread_local_invalid_parameter_handler() using MINGW because
that function is not declared. Even _set_invalid_parameter_handler(),
which *is* declared, does not help, as it simply does... nothing.
So let's just bite the bullet and override strftime() for MINGW and
abort on an invalid format string. While this does not provide the
best user experience, it is the best we can do.

details.

Four 'cvs diff' related tests in 't9402-git-cvsserver-refs.sh' fail
when the test script is run with '-x' tracing (and using a shell other
than a Bash version supporting BASH_XTRACEFD). The reason for those
failures is that the tests check the emptiness of a subshell's stderr,
which includes the trace of commands executed in that subshell as
well, throwing off the emptiness check.
Save the stdout and stderr of the invoked 'cvs' command instead of the
whole subshell, so the latter remains free from tracing output. (Note
that changing how stdout is saved is only done for the sake of
consistency, it's not necessary for correctness.)
After this change t9402 passes with '-x', even when running with
/bin/sh.

The test 'cvs update (-p)' redirects and checks 'test_cmp's stdout and
even its stderr. The commit introducing this test in 6e8937a084
(cvsserver: Add test for update -p, 2008-03-27) doesn't discuss why,
in fact its log message only consists of that subject line. Anyway,
weird as it is, it kind of made sense due to the way that test was
structured:
After a bit of preparation, this test updates four files via CVS and
checks their contents using 'test_cmp', but it does so in a for loop
iterating over the names of those four files. Now, the exit status of
a for loop is the exit status of the last command executed in the
loop, meaning that the test can't simply rely on the exit code of
'test_cmp' in the loop's body. Instead, the test works it around by
relying on the stdout of 'test_cmp' being silent on success and
showing the diff on failure, as it appends the stdout of all four
'test_cmp' invocations to a single file and checks that file's
emptiness after the loop (with 'test -z "$(cat ...)"', no less; there
was no 'test_must_be_empty' back then). Furthermore, the test
redirects the stderr of those 'test_cmp' invocations to this file,
too: while 'test_cmp' itself doesn't output anything to stderr, the
invoked 'diff' or 'cmp' commands do send their error messages there,
e.g. if they can't open a file because its name was misspelled.
This also makes this test fail when the test script is run with '-x'
tracing (and using a shell other than a Bash version supporting
BASH_XTRACEFD), because 'test_cmp's stderr contains the trace of the
'diff' command executed inside the helper function, throwing off the
subsequent emptiness check.
Stop relying on 'test_cmp's output and instead run 'test_cmp a b ||
return 1' in the for loop in order to make 'test_cmp's error code fail
the test. Furthermore, add the missing && after the cvs command to
create a && chain in the loop's body.
After this change t9400 passes with '-x', even when running with
/bin/sh.
