In 3-way merge, "am" will let the index with unmerged path waiting
for us to resolve conflicts and continue. But if we want to --skip
instead, "am" refuses to continue because of the dirty index.

With this patch, "am" will clean the index without touching files
locally modified, before continuing.

When running git submodule update -i, the "-i" is shifted before recursing
into cmd_init and then again outside of the loop. This causes some /bin/sh
to complain about shifting when there are no arguments left (and would
discard anything written after -i too).

"git update-index --refresh", "git reset" and "git add --refresh" have
reported paths that have local modifications as "needs update" since the
beginning of git.

Although this is logically correct in that you need to update the index at
that path before you can commit that change, it is now becoming more and
more clear, especially with the continuous push for user friendliness
since 1.5.0 series, that the message is suboptimal.  After all, the change
may be something the user might want to get rid of, and "updating" would
be absolutely a wrong thing to do if that is the case.

I prepared two alternatives to solve this.  Both aim to reword the message
to more neutral "locally modified".

This patch is a more intrusive variant that changes the message for only
Porcelain commands ("add" and "reset") while keeping the plumbing
"update-index" intact.

People sometimes find that "git add -u && git add ." are 13 keystrokes too
many.  This reduces it by nine.

The support of this has been very low priority for me personally, because
I almost never do "git add ." in a directory with already tracked files,
and in a new directory, there is no point saying "git add -u".

However, for two types of people (that are very different from me), this
mode of operation may make sense and there is no reason to leave it
unsupported.  That is:

 (1) If you are extremely well disciplined and keep perfect .gitignore, it
     always is safe to say "git add ."; or

 (2) If you are extremely undisciplined and do not even know what files
     you created, and you do not very much care what goes in your history,
     it does not matter if "git add ." included everything.

So there it is, although I suspect I will not use it myself, ever.

It will be too much of a change that is against the expectation of the
existing users to allow "git commit -a" to include untracked files, and
it would be inconsistent if we named this new option "-a", so the short
option is "-A".  We _might_ want to later add "git commit -A" but that is
a separate topic.

The implementation of "git add" has four major codepaths that are mutually
exclusive:

 - if "--interactive" or "--patch" is given, spawn "git add--interactive"
   and exit without doing anything else.  Otherwise things are handled
   internally in this C code;

 - if "--update" is given, update the modified files and exit without
   doing anything else;

 - if "--refresh" is given, do refresh and exit without doing anything
   else;

 - otherwise, find the paths that match pathspecs and stage their
   contents.

It led to an unholy mess in the code structure; each of the latter three
codepaths has a separate call to read_cache(), even though they are all
about "read the current index, update it and write it back", and logically
they should read the index once _anyway_.

This cleans up the latter three cases by introducing a pair of helper
variables:

 - "add_new_files" is set if we need to scan the working tree for paths
   that match the pathspec.  This variable is false for "--update" and
   "--refresh", because they only work on already tracked files.

 - "require_pathspec" is set if the user must give at least one pathspec.
   "--update" does not need it but all the other cases do.

This is in preparation for introducing a new option "--all", that does the
equivalent of "git add -u && git add ." (aka "addremove").

Currently fast-import/export cannot be used for

Links can be represented by two forms of the
Modify command:

M 160000 SHA1 some/path

which sets the link target explicitly, or

M 160000 :mark some/path

where the mark refers to a commit. The latter
form can be used by importing tools to build
all submodules simultaneously in one physical
repository, and then simply fetch them apart.

The git-merge documentation's "HOW MERGE WORKS" section is confusingly
composed and actually omits the most interesting part, the merging of
the arguments into HEAD itself, surprisingly not actually mentioning
the fast-forward merge anywhere.

This patch replaces the "[NOTE]" screenful of highly technical details
by a single sentence summing up the interesting information, and instead
explains how are the arguments compared with HEAD and the three possible
inclusion states that are named "Already up-to-date", "Fast-forward"
and "True merge". It also makes it clear that the rest of the section
talks only about the true merge situation, and slightly expands the
talk on solving conflicts.

Junio initiated the removal of the Note screenful altogether and
offered many stylistical fixes.
