be1e04c379 Documentation/config.txt: fix typo in core.alternateRefsCommand
In [1] Git learned about 'core.alternateRefsCommand', and with it, the
accompanying documentation. However, this documentation included a typo
involving the verb tense of "produced".

Match the tense of the surrounding bits by correcting this typo.

8dd9b3f85a send-email: explicitly disable authentication
It can be necessary to disable SMTP authentication by a mechanism other
than sendemail.smtpuser being undefined. For example, if the user has
sendemail.smtpuser set globally but wants to disable authentication
locally in one repository.

--smtp-auth and sendemail.smtpauth now understand the value 'none' which
means to disable authentication completely, even if an authentication
user is specified.

The value 'none' is lower case to avoid conflicts with any RFC 4422
authentication mechanisms.

The user may also specify the command line argument --no-smtp-auth as a
shorthand for --smtp-auth=none

3a3b9d8cde refs: new ref types to make per-worktree refs visible to all worktrees
One of the problems with multiple worktree is accessing per-worktree
refs of one worktree from another worktree. This was sort of solved by
multiple ref store, where the code can open the ref store of another
worktree and has access to the ref space of that worktree.

The problem with this is reporting. "HEAD" in another ref space is
also called "HEAD" like in the current ref space. In order to
differentiate them, all the code must somehow carry the ref store
around and print something like "HEAD from this ref store".

But that is not feasible (or possible with a _lot_ of work). With the
current design, we pass a reference around as a string (so called
"refname"). Extending this design to pass a string _and_ a ref store
is a nightmare, especially when handling extended SHA-1 syntax.

So we do it another way. Instead of entering a separate ref space, we
make refs from other worktrees available in the current ref space. So
"HEAD" is always HEAD of the current worktree, but then we can have
"worktrees/blah/HEAD" to denote HEAD from a worktree named
"blah". This syntax coincidentally matches the underlying directory
structure which makes implementation a bit easier.

The main worktree has to be treated specially because well... it's
special from the beginning. So HEAD from the main worktree is
acccessible via the name "main-worktree/HEAD" instead of
"worktrees/main/HEAD" because "main" could be just another secondary
worktree.

This patch also makes it possible to specify refs from one worktree in
another one, e.g.

    git log worktrees/foo/HEAD

58b284a2e9 worktree: add per-worktree config files
A new repo extension is added, worktreeConfig. When it is present:

 - Repository config reading by default includes $GIT_DIR/config _and_
   $GIT_DIR/config.worktree. "config" file remains shared in multiple
   worktree setup.

 - The special treatment for core.bare and core.worktree, to stay
   effective only in main worktree, is gone. These config settings are
   supposed to be in config.worktree.

This extension is most useful in multiple worktree setup because you
now have an option to store per-worktree config (which is either
.git/config.worktree for main worktree, or
.git/worktrees/xx/config.worktree for linked ones).

This extension can be used in single worktree mode, even though it's
pretty much useless (but this can happen after you remove all linked
worktrees and move back to single worktree).

"git config" reads from both "config" and "config.worktree" by default
(i.e. without either --user, --file...) when this extension is
present. Default writes still go to "config", not "config.worktree". A
new option --worktree is added for that (*).

Since a new repo extension is introduced, existing git binaries should
refuse to access to the repo (both from main and linked worktrees). So
they will not misread the config file (i.e. skip the config.worktree
part). They may still accidentally write to the config file anyway if
they use with "git config --file <path>".

This design places a bet on the assumption that the majority of config
variables are shared so it is the default mode. A safer move would be
default writes go to per-worktree file, so that accidental changes are
isolated.

(*) "git config --worktree" points back to "config" file when this
    extension is not present and there is only one worktree so that it
    works in any both single and multiple worktree setups.

465e73fff3 Merge branch 'tb/filter-alternate-refs'
When pushing into a repository that borrows its objects from an
alternate object store, "git receive-pack" that responds to the
push request on the other side lists the tips of refs in the
alternate to reduce the amount of objects transferred.  This
sometimes is detrimental when the number of refs in the alternate
is absurdly large, in which case the bandwidth saved in potentially
fewer objects transferred is wasted in excessively large ref
advertisement.  The alternate refs that are advertised are now
configurable with a pair of configuration variables.

89143ac28a git-p4: fully support unshelving changelists
The previous git-p4 unshelve support would check for changes
in Perforce to the files being unshelved since the original
shelve, and would complain if any were found.

This was to ensure that the user wouldn't end up with both the
shelved change delta, and some deltas from other changes in their
git commit.

e.g. given fileA:
      the
      quick
      brown
      fox

  change1: s/the/The/   <- p4 shelve this change
  change2: s/fox/Fox/   <- p4 submit this change
  git p4 unshelve 1     <- FAIL

This change teaches the P4Unshelve class to always create a parent
commit which matches the P4 tree (for the files being unshelved) at
the point prior to the P4 shelve being created (which is reported
in the p4 description for a shelved changelist).

That then means git-p4 can always create a git commit matching the
P4 shelve that was originally created, without any extra deltas.

The user might still need to use the --origin option though - there
is no way for git-p4 to work out the versions of all of the other
*unchanged* files in the shelve, since this information is not recorded
by Perforce.

Additionally this fixes handling of shelved 'move' operations.

21084e84a4 http: add support for selecting SSL backends at runtime
As of version 7.56.0, curl supports being compiled with multiple SSL
backends.

This patch adds the Git side of that feature: by setting http.sslBackend
to "openssl" or "schannel", Git for Windows can now choose the SSL
backend at runtime.

This comes in handy on Windows because Secure Channel ("schannel") is
the native solution, accessing the Windows Credential Store, thereby
allowing for enterprise-wide management of certificates. For historical
reasons, Git for Windows needs to support OpenSSL still, as it has
previously been the only supported SSL backend in Git for Windows for
almost a decade.

The patch has been carried in Git for Windows for over a year, and is
considered mature.

immediately drop out of the interactive rebase, with exit code 0, to let

Sometimes this functionality would come in handy *without*
cherry-picking a commit, e.g. to interrupt the interactive rebase even
before cherry-picking a commit, or immediately after an 'exec' or a
'merge'.

This commit introduces that functionality, as the spanking new 'break'

3255089ada ieot: add Index Entry Offset Table (IEOT) extension
This patch enables addressing the CPU cost of loading the index by adding
additional data to the index that will allow us to efficiently multi-
thread the loading and conversion of cache entries.

It accomplishes this by adding an (optional) index extension that is a
table of offsets to blocks of cache entries in the index file.  To make
this work for V4 indexes, when writing the cache entries, it periodically
"resets" the prefix-compression by encoding the current entry as if the
path name for the previous entry is completely different and saves the
offset of that entry in the IEOT.  Basically, with V4 indexes, it
generates offsets into blocks of prefix-compressed entries.

3b1d9e045e eoie: add End of Index Entry (EOIE) extension
The End of Index Entry (EOIE) is used to locate the end of the variable
length index entries and the beginning of the extensions. Code can take
advantage of this to quickly locate the index extensions without having
to parse through all of the index entries.

The EOIE extension is always written out to the index file including to
the shared index when using the split index feature. Because it is always
written out, the SHA checksums in t/t1700-split-index.sh were updated
to reflect its inclusion.

It is written as an optional extension to ensure compatibility with other
git implementations that do not yet support it.  It is always written out
to ensure it is available as often as possible to speed up index operations.

Because it must be able to be loaded before the variable length cache
entries and other index extensions, this extension must be written last.
The signature for this extension is { 'E', 'O', 'I', 'E' }.

The extension consists of:

- 32-bit offset to the end of the index entries

- 160-bit SHA-1 over the extension types and their sizes (but not
their contents).  E.g. if we have "TREE" extension that is N-bytes
long, "REUC" extension that is M-bytes long, followed by "EOIE",
then the hash would be:

SHA-1("TREE" + <binary representation of N> +
    "REUC" + <binary representation of M>)

912104770d git-help.txt: document "git help cmd" vs "git cmd --help" for aliases
This documents the existing behaviour of "git help cmd" when cmd is an
alias, as well as providing a hint to use the "git cmd --help" form to
be taken directly to the man page for the aliased command.

ca8ed443a5 doc: fix a typo and clarify a sentence
I noticed that git-merge-base was unlikely to actually be a git command,
and tried it in my shell. Seeing that it doesn't work, I cleaned up two
places in the docs where it appears.
