A pathname value in a clean/smudge filter process "key=value" pair can
contain the '=' character (introduced in edcc858). Make the user aware
of this issue in the docs, add a corresponding test case, and fix the
issue in filter process value parser of the example implementation in
contrib.

This options makes sorting ignore case, which is great when you have
branches named bug-12-do-something, Bug-12-do-some-more and
BUG-12-do-what and want to group them together. Sorting externally may
not be an option because we lose coloring and column layout from
git-branch and git-tag.
The same could be said for filtering, but it's probably less important
because you can always go with the ugly pattern [bB][uU][gG]-* if you're
desperate.
You can't have case-sensitive filtering and case-insensitive sorting (or
the other way around) with this though. For branch and tag, that should
be no problem. for-each-ref, as a plumbing, might want finer control.
But we can always add --{filter,sort}-ignore-case when there is a need
for it.

P4 commands can fail due to random network issues. P4 users can counter
these issues by using a retry flag supported by all p4 commands [1].
Add an integer Git config value `git-p4.retries` to define the number of
retries for all p4 invocations. If the config is not defined then set
the default retry count to 3.

Adds new option "--update-shelve CHANGELIST" which updates
an existing shelved changelist.
The original changelist must have been created by the current user.
This allows workflow something like:
hack hack hack
git commit
git p4 submit --shelve
$mail interested parties about shelved changelist
make corrections
git commit --amend
git p4 submit --update-shelve $CHANGELIST
$mail interested parties about shelved changelist
etc

--only is implied when paths are present, and required
them unless --amend. But with --allow-empty it should
be allowed as well - it is the only way to create an
empty commit in the presence of staged changes.

In commit 1462450 ("trailer: allow non-trailers in trailer block",
2016-10-21), functionality was added (and tested [1]) to allow
non-trailer lines in trailer blocks, as long as those blocks contain at
least one Git-generated or user-configured trailer, and consists of at
least 25% trailers. The documentation was updated to mention this new
functionality, but did not mention "user-configured trailer".
Further update the documentation to also mention "user-configured
trailer".

It seems a little silly to do a reachabilty check in the case where we
trust the user to access absolutely everything in the repository.
Also, it's racy in a distributed system -- perhaps one server
advertises a ref, but another has since had a force-push to that ref,
and perhaps the two HTTP requests end up directed to these different
servers.

In general, "git gc" may delete objects that another concurrent process
is using but hasn't created a reference to. Git has some mitigations,
but they fall short of a complete solution. Document this in the
git-gc(1) man page and add a reference from the documentation of the
gc.pruneExpire config variable.

The "SECURITY" section of the gitnamespaces(7) man page described two
ways for a client to steal data from a server that wasn't intended to be
shared. Similar attacks can be performed by a server on a client, so
adapt the section to cover both directions and add it to the
git-fetch(1), git-pull(1), and git-push(1) man pages. Also add
references to this section from the documentation of server
configuration options that attempt to control data leakage but may not
be fully effective.

With the introduction of the $GIT_COMMON_DIR variable, the
repository layout manual was changed to reflect the location for
many files in case the variable is set. While adding the new
locations, one typo snuck in regarding the location of the
'info/' folder, which is falsely claimed to reside at
"$GIT_COMMON_DIR/index".
Fix the typo to point to "$GIT_COMMON_DIR/info/" instead.

The user always has to say "stash@{$N}" when naming a single
