As a shortcut the "Stage Changed" button can be used to stage all current
changes in the worktree which are not set to ignore. Previously unknown
files would be ignored. The user might want to say: "Just save everything
in my worktree". To support this workflow we now ask whether the user also
wants to stage the unknown files if there are some present.

This code calls git_config from a helper function to parse the config entry
it is interested in. Calling git_config in this way may cause a problem if
the helper function can be called after a previous call to git_config by
another function since the second call to git_config may reset some
variable to the value in the config file which was previously overridden.
The above is not a problem in this case since the function passed to
git_config only parses one config entry and the variable it sets is not
assigned outside of the parsing function. But a programmer who desires
all of the standard config options to be parsed may be tempted to modify
git_attr_config() so that it falls back to git_default_config() and then it
_would_ be vulnerable to the above described behavior.
So, move the call to git_config up into the top-level cmd_* function and
move the responsibility for parsing core.attributesfile into the main
config file parser.
Which is only the logical thing to do ;-)

The "x"-prefixed versions of strdup, malloc, etc. will check whether the
allocation was successful and terminate the process otherwise.
A few uses of malloc were left alone since they already implemented a
graceful path of failure or were in a quasi external library like xdiff.
Additionally, the call to malloc in compat/win32/syslog.c was not modified
since the syslog() implemented there is a die handler and a call to the
x-wrappers within a die handler could result in recursion should memory
allocation fail. This will have to be addressed separately.

This code sequence performs a strcpy into the buf member of a strbuf
struct. The strcpy may move the position of the terminating nul of the
string and effectively change the length of string so that it does not
match the len member of the strbuf struct.
Currently, this sequence works since the strbuf was given a hint when it
was initialized to allocate enough space to accomodate the string that will
be strcpy'ed, but this is an implementation detail of strbufs, not a
guarantee.
So, lets rework this sequence so that the strbuf is only manipulated by
strbuf functions, and direct modification of its "buf" member is not
necessary.

When invoking expr to compare two numbers, don't quote the
variables which are the output of 'wc -c'. On OS X, this output
includes spaces, which expr balks at:
$ sz0=`wc -c </etc/passwd`
$ sz1=`wc -c </etc/passwd`
$ echo "'$sz0'"
' 3667'
$ expr "$sz0" \< "$sz1" \* 2
expr: non-numeric argument
$ expr $sz0 \< $sz1 \* 2

Avoid a getpwuid() call (which contacts the network if the password
database is not local), read of /etc/mailname, gethostname() call, and
reverse DNS lookup if the user has already chosen a name and email
through configuration, the environment, or the command line.
This should slightly speed up commands like "git commit". More
importantly, it improves error reporting when computation of the
default ident string does not go smoothly. For example, after
detecting a problem (e.g., "warning: cannot open /etc/mailname:
Permission denied") in retrieving the default committer identity:
touch /etc/mailname; # as root
chmod -r /etc/mailname; # as root
git commit -m 'test commit'
you can squelch the warning while waiting for your sysadmin to fix the
permissions problem.
echo '[user] email = me@example.com' >>~/.gitconfig

Now we have branch descriptions stored in the repository, we can
use it when preparing the request-pull message.

The message gives a detailed explanation of the commit the requester based
the changes on, but lacks information that is necessary for the person who
performs a fetch & merge in order to verify that the correct branch was
fetched when responding to the pull request.
Add a few more lines to describe the commit at the tip expected to be
fetched to the same level of detail as the base commit.
Also update the warning message slightly when the script notices that the
commit may not have been pushed.
