It's just as much a work-in-progress, but at least now it's gotten
enough technical review to shake out most of the really bad lies, so
hopefully it doesn't do any actual damage.  And if we encourage people

Any section lacking an id gets an annoying warning when you build
the manual.  More seriously, the table of contents then generates
volatile id's which change with every build, with the effect that
we get URL's that change all the time.

The ID's are manually generated and sometimes inconsistent, but
that's OK.

When you do this, existing "blame -C -C" would not find that the
latter half of the file2 came from the existing file1:

	... both file1 and file2 are tracked ...
	$ cat file1 >>file2
	$ git add file1 file2
	$ git commit

This is because we avoid the expensive find-copies-harder code
that makes unchanged file (in this case, file1) as a candidate
for copy & paste source when annotating an existing file
(file2).  The third -C now allows it.  However, this obviously
makes the process very expensive.  We've actually seen this
patch before, but I dismissed it because it covers such a narrow
(and arguably stupid) corner case.
Signed-off-by: NJunio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

The -C option to blame tries to find a section of a preimage
file by running diff against the lines whose origin is still
unknown, and excluding the different parts.  The code however
did not cover the case where the tail part of the section
matched, which we handle for the normal non-move/copy codepath.

This breakage was most visible when preimage file matches in its
entirety and failed to pass blame in such a case.

Most other documentation will frequently be read from an installation
of git so will naturally be associated with the installed version.
But these two documents in particular are often read from web pages
while users are still exploring git. It's important to mention

won't work with previous versions of git.

git-svn dcommit exports commits to Subversion, then imports them back
to git again, and last but not least rebases or resets HEAD to the
last of the new commits. I guess this rebasing is convenient when
using just git, but when the commits to be exported are managed by
StGIT, it's really annoying. So add an option to disable this
behavior. And document it, too!

There is a mechanism PERL_PATH in the Makefile to specify path to

out where Perl comes from, with PERL_PATH="/usr/bin/env perl".

Allowing this would make things easier to MacPorts, where we wish
to work with the MacPorts perl if it is installed, but fall back
to the system perl if it isn't.

  Teach import-tars about GNU tar's @LongLink extension.

This extension allows GNU tar to process file names in excess of the 100
characters defined by the original tar standard. It does this by faking a
file, named '././@LongLink' containing the true file name, and then adding
the file with a truncated name. The idea is that tar without this
extension will write out a file with the long file name, and write the
contents into a file with truncated name.

Unfortunately, GNU tar does a lousy job at times. When truncating results
in a _directory_ name, it will happily use _that_ as a truncated name for
the file.

An example where this actually happens is gcc-4.1.2, where the full path
of the file WeThrowThisExceptionHelper.java truncates _exactly_ before the
basename. So, we have to support that ad-hoc extension.
