A missing test for a recent feature has been added.
Some authentication methods do not need username or password, but
libcurl needs some hint that it needs to perform authentication.
Supplying an empty username and password string is a valid way to
do so, but you can set the http.[<url>.]emptyAuth configuration
variable to achieve the same, if you find it cleaner.

+ am -i: fix "v"iew
+ pager: factor out a helper to prepare a child process to run the pager

* jk/lose-name-path (2016-02-12) 5 commits

+ list-objects: drop name_path entirely
+ list-objects: convert name_path to a strbuf
+ show_object_with_name: simplify by using path_name()
+ http-push: stop using name_path
The "name_path" API was an attempt to reduce the need to construct
the full path out of a series of path components while walking a
tree hierarchy, but over time made less efficient because the path
needs to be flattened, e.g. to be compared with another path that
is already flat. The API has been removed and its users have been
rewritten to simplify the overall code complexity.

+ credential-cache--daemon: change to the socket dir on startup
+ credential-cache--daemon: disallow relative socket path
+ credential-cache--daemon: refactor check_socket_directory
The "credential-cache" daemon process used to run in whatever
directory it happened to start in, but this made umount(2)ing the
filesystem that houses the repository harder; now the process
chdir()s to the directory that house its own socket on startup.

+ xdiff: drop XDL_EMIT_COMMON
+ merge-tree: drop generate_common strategy
+ merge-one-file: use empty blob for add/add base
Code simplification.
"git merge-tree" used to mishandle "both sides added" conflict with
its own "create a fake ancestor file that has the common parts of
what both sides have added and do a 3-way merge" logic; this has
been updated to use the usual "3-way merge with an empty blob as
the fake common ancestore file" approach used in the rest of the
system.

+ push: remove "push.default is unset" warning message
Across the transition at around Git version 2.0, the user used to
get a pretty loud warning when running "git push" without setting
push.default configuration variable. We started to tone down the
warning message, given that the transition is over long time ago.

- upload-pack: move "unshallow" sending code out of deepen()
- upload-pack: remove unused variable "backup"

- upload-pack: move shallow deepen code out of receive_needs()
- transport-helper.c: refactor set_helper_option()
- remote-curl.c: convert fetch_git() to use argv_array
The existing "git fetch --depth=<n>" option was hard to use
correctly when making the history of an existing shallow clone
deeper. A new option, "--deepen=<n>", has been added to make this
easier to use. "git clone" also learned "--shallow-since=<date>"
and "--shallow-exclude=<tag>" options to make it easier to specify
"I am interested only in the recent N months worth of history" and
"Give me only the history since that version".
Needs review.

+ test_must_fail: report number of unexpected signal
+ fetch-pack: ignore SIGPIPE in sideband demuxer

Handling of errors while writing into our internal asynchronous

A helper function "git submodule" uses since v2.7.0 to list the
modules that match the pathspec argument given to its subcommands
(e.g. "submodule add <repo> <path>") has been fixed.

* sb/submodule-fetch-nontip (2016-02-24) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2016-02-25 at 1e412f0)
+ submodule: try harder to fetch needed sha1 by direct fetching sha1
When "git submodule update" did not result in fetching the commit
object in the submodule that is referenced by the superproject, the
command learned to retry another fetch, specifically asking for
that commit that may not be connected to the refs it usually
fetches.

+ add DEVELOPER makefile knob to check for acknowledged warnings
"git p4 submit" attempts to do a rebase, which would fail if done
in a bare repository. Not doing this rebase would paper over the
failure, which is what this patch does, but it is unclear what the
side effect of not rebasing is.
There is a new DEVELOPER knob that enables many compiler warning

Traditionally, the tests that try commands that work on the
contents in the working tree were named with "worktree" in their
filenames, but with the recent addition of "git worktree"
subcommand, whose tests are also named similarly, it has become
harder to tell them apart. The traditional tests have been renamed

array of strings.

+ dir.c: support marking some patterns already matched
+ dir.c: support tracing exclude
+ dir.c: fix match_pathname()
Another try to add support to the ignore mechanism that lets you
say "this is excluded" and then later say "oh, no, this part (that
is a subset of the previous part) is not excluded".

Many codepaths forget to check return value from git_config_set();
the function is made to die() to make sure we do not proceed when
setting a configuration variable failed.

The configuration system has been taught to phrase where it found a
bad configuration variable in a better way in its error messages.
"git config" learnt a new "--show-origin" option to indicate where
the values come from.

+ list-objects: pass full pathname to callbacks
+ list-objects: drop name_path entirely
+ list-objects: convert name_path to a strbuf
+ show_object_with_name: simplify by using path_name()
+ http-push: stop using name_path
The "name_path" API was an attempt to reduce the need to construct
the full path out of a series of path components while walking a
tree hierarchy, but over time made less efficient because the path
needs to be flattened, e.g. to be compared with another path that
is already flat. The API has been removed and its users have been
rewritten to simplify the overall code complexity.
