Commit a31e626 (completion: optimize refs completion) introduced a
regression for ZSH users: ref names were completed with a quoted trailing
space (i.e. "git checkout ma" completes to "git checkout master\ "). The
space is convenient for bash users since we use "-o nospace", but a
quoted space is worse than nothing. The absence of trailing space for ZSH
is a long-standing issue, that this patch is not fixing. We just fix the
regression by not appending a space when the shell is ZSH.

With msysGit the .git directory is supposed to be hidden, unless it is
a bare git repository. Test this.

As reported in msysGit issue 450 the recent change to set the windows
hidden attribute on the .git directory is being applied to bare git
directories. This patch excludes bare repositories.

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]

This has the effect of increasing the address space from 2GB to 4GB under
64-bit Windows, reducing the likelihood of an "out of memory" error when
e.g. repacking a large repository. The test suite passes with this
patch, with and without the MEM_TOP_DOWN flag added to all VirtualAlloc
calls. While this is no guarantee that there are no issues with large
memory support (it could break Git on other setups than mine, for
example), it at least increases the chance that nothing obvious goes wrong
(such as errors introduced by faulty sign extension, say, with ssize_t).

The dreaded "your vnsprintf is broken (returned -1)" error is back. At
least with the libintl version we have. So for the moment, just work
around the issue by _not_ using gettext.
Ah, I wish that my attempt at implementing a custom strbuf_vaddf() would
not have been brushed aside so rashly. Oh well. Time saved on maintaining
that thing, I guess (although more time went into working around coping
with existing implementations).

in ab1a11be ("mingw_rmdir: set errno=ENOTEMPTY when appropriate"),
a check was added to prevent us from retrying to delete a directory
that is both in use and non-empty.
However, this logic was slightly flawed; since we didn't return
immediately, we end up falling out of the retry-loop, but right into
the prompting-loop.
Fix this by setting errno, and guarding the prompting-loop with an
errno-check.

In the distant past, the order things were documented was
'Invocation', 'Commands', 'Capabilities', ...
Then it was decided that before giving a list of Commands, there
should be an overall description of the 'Input format', which was
a wise decision. However, this description was put as the very
first thing, with the rationale that any implementor would want
to know that first.
However, it seems an implementor would actually first need to
know how the remote helper will be invoked, so moving
'Invocation' to the front again seems logical. Moreover, we now
don't switch from discussing the input format to the invocation
style and then back to input related stuff.
