Git on Windows was made aware of the fact that sometimes a file may be
used by another process and so an operation may fail but the user might
be able to fix it and is asking for confirmation whether it should
retry.
This is implemented in a way that git only asks in case stdin and stderr
are attached to a tty. Unfortunately this seems to be misdetected
sometimes causing the testsuite to hang when git is waiting for a user
answer.
This patch works around the situation.

This fixes a rebase in the presence of dirty submodules. This is
orthogonal to the application of patches changing submodules.

The output of git-merge-octopus has CR/LF line endings, so let's just

In git-send-email.perl, here are two checks to determine if
$smtp_server is an absolute path (so it'll be treated as a mailer) or
not (so it'll be treated as a hostname). The one that handles actual
mail processing has been taught to recognize Windows pathnames by
commit 33b2e81f.
The other check is just to tell the user what happened, so it's far
less important, but the current state is that we will still claim to
the user that c:/foo/bar is a server. =) This makes the second check
consistent with the first.

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.

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]

Currently, command-line arguments are communicated using (argc, argv)
until a prepare_revs() turns it into a terse structure. However,
since we plan to expose the cherry-picking machinery through a public
API in the future, we want callers to be able to call in with a
filled-in structure. For the revert builtin, this means that the
chief argument parser, parse_args(), should parse into such a
structure. Make this change.

Parse the instruction sheet in '.git/sequencer/todo' as a list of
(action, operand) pairs, instead of assuming that all instructions use
the same action. Now you can do:
pick fdc0b12 picked
revert 965fed4 anotherpick
For cherry-pick and revert, this means that a 'git cherry-pick
--continue' can continue an ongoing revert operation and viceversa.
This patch lays the foundation for extending the parser to support
more actions so 'git rebase -i' can reuse this machinery in the
future. While at it, also improve the error messages reported by the
insn sheet parser.

Change the instruction sheet format subtly so that the subject of the
commit message that follows the object name is optional. As a result,
an instruction sheet like this is now perfectly valid:
pick 35b0426
pick fbd5bbcbc2e
pick 7362160f
While at it, also fix a bug: currently, we use a commit-id-shaped
buffer to store the word after "pick" in '.git/sequencer/todo'. This
is both wasteful and wrong because it places an artificial limit on
the line length. Eliminate the need for the buffer altogether, and
add a test demonstrating this.

Memory allocated to the fields of msg by get_message() isn't freed.
This is potentially a big leak, because fresh memory is allocated to
store the commit message for each commit. Fix this using
free_message().

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.
