For a long time, this developer thought that Git's insistence that
pushing into the current branch is evil was completely merited.
Just for fun, the original patch tried to show people that Git is right
there, and that it causes more trouble than it does good when Git allows
you to try to update the working tree for fast-forwards, or to detach the
HEAD, depending on some config settings.
Surprisingly, the opposite was shown.
So here is the support for two new options you can give the config
variable receive.denyCurrentBranch:
'updateInstead':
Try to merge the working tree with the new tip of the branch
(which can lead to really horrible merge conflicts).
'detachInstead':
Detach the HEAD, thereby avoiding a disagreement between the
HEAD and the index (as well as the working tree), possibly
leaving the local user wondering how on earth her HEAD became
so detached.

This is really a problem with shell scripts being called on msysGit,
but there are more important bugs to fix for the moment.

With msysGit the .git directory is supposed to be hidden, unless it is
a bare git repository. Test this.

On Windows, there are dramatic problems when a command line grows
beyond PATH_MAX, which is restricted to 8191 characters on XP and
later (according to http://support.microsoft.com/kb/830473).
Work around this by just cutting off the command line at that length
(actually, at a space boundary) in the hope that only negative
refs are chucked: gitk will then do unnecessary work, but that is
still better than flashing the gitk window and exiting with exit
status 5 (which no Windows user is able to make sense of).
The first fix caused Tcl to fail to compile the regexp, see msysGit issue
427. Here is another fix without using regexp, and using a more relaxed
command line length limit to fix the original issue 387.

Make use of the new environment variable GIT_ASK_YESNO to support the
recently implemented fallback in case unlink, rename or rmdir fail for
files in use on Windows. The added dialog will present a yes/no question
to the the user which will currently be used by the windows compat layer
to let the user retry a failed file operation.

At least for cross-platform projects, it makes sense to hide the
files starting with a dot, as this is the behavior on Unix/MacOSX.
However, at least Eclipse has problems interpreting the hidden flag
correctly, so the default is to hide only the .git/ directory.
The config setting core.hideDotFiles therefore supports not only
'true' and 'false', but also 'dotGitOnly'.
[jes: clarified the commit message, made git init respect the setting
by marking the .git/ directory only after reading the config, and added
documentation, and rebased on top of current junio/next]

Git 1.7.7.1
RelNotes/1.7.7.1: setgid bit patch is about fixing "git init" via Makefile setting
Update draft release notes to 1.7.8
Conflicts:
refs.c
The change was actually about "git init -s" which sets the setgid bit on
SysV-style systems to allow shared access to a repository, and can provoke
errors on BSD-style systems, depending on how permissive the filesystem in
use wants to be.
More to the point, the patch was just taking a fix that arrived for
FreeBSD in v1.5.5 days and making it also apply to machines using an
(obscure) GNU userland/FreeBSD kernel mixture.

Add new placeholders related to the GPG signature on signed commits.
- %GG to show the raw verification message from GPG;
- %G? to show either "G" for Good, "B" for Bad;

A common thing to grep for is the name of a symbol. This
patch teaches the completion for "git grep" to look in
a 'tags' file, if present, to complete a pattern. For
example, in git.git:
$ make tags
$ git grep get_sha1<Tab><Tab>
get_sha1 get_sha1_oneline
get_sha1_1 get_sha1_with_context
get_sha1_basic get_sha1_with_context_1
get_sha1_hex get_sha1_with_mode
get_sha1_hex_segment get_sha1_with_mode_1
get_sha1_mb
