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.

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]

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.

The insn sheet used by "rebase -i" is designed to be easily editable by
any text editor, but an editor that is specifically meant for it (but
is otherwise unsuitable for editing regular text files) could be useful
by allowing drag & drop reordering in a GUI environment, for example.
The GIT_SEQUENCE_EDITOR environment variable and/or the sequence.editor
configuration variable can be used to specify such an editor, while
allowing the usual editor to be used to edit commit log messages. As
usual, the environment variable takes precedence over the configuration
variable.
It is envisioned that other "sequencer" based tools will use the same
mechanism.

Most of what is in gitweb.txt it has been pulled directly from the
README and INSTALL files of gitweb.
Current version is somewhat based on structure of SVN::Web manpage
(one of web interfaces for Subversion).
gitweb.conf(5) i.e. gitweb configuration manpage now refers to
appropriate sections in gitweb(1). gitweb/README now refers to
gitweb/INSTALL and gitweb(1) manpage. gitweb/INSTALL now refers to
gitweb.conf(5) and gitweb(1).

Much of what is in gitweb.conf.txt has been pulled directly from the
README file of gitweb. The manpage was supplemented with description
of missing gitweb config variables, and with description of gitweb's
%features.
There remains a bit of redundancy, which should be reduced if
possible... but I think some of duplication of information is
inevitable.

Allow the user to check the patch set before it is commited to SVN. It is
then possible to accept/discard one patch, accept all, or quit.
This interactive mode is similar with 'git send email' behaviour. However,
'git svn dcommit' returns as soon as one patch is discarded.
Part of the code was taken from git-send-email.perl (see 'ask' function)
Tests several combinations of potential answers to
'git svn dcommit --interactive'. For each of them, test whether patches
were commited to SVN or not.

When the git-daemon is asked about an inaccessible repository, it simply
hangs up the connection without saying anything further. This makes it
hard to distinguish between a repository we cannot access (e.g., due to
typo), and a service or network outage.
Instead, let's print an "ERR" line, which git clients understand since
v1.6.1 (2008-12-24).
Because there is a risk of leaking information about non-exported
repositories, by default all errors simply say "access denied or
repository not exported". Sites which don't have hidden repositories, or
don't care, can pass a flag to turn on more specific messages.
