This will allow "./config.status --recheck; ./config.status" to work
correctly as a mean of reconfiguring the tree with the same configure
argument used in the previous "./configure" invocation.

The new name fits better with the macro signature, and underlines the
similarities with the autoconf-provided macro AC_SUBST (which will be
made even more pronounced in planned future commits).

Once again, no semantic change is intended, and indeed no change to the
generated configure script is expected.

Change one-argument GIT_CONF_APPEND_LINE([VAR=VAL]) to
GIT_CONF_APPEND_LINE([VAR], [VAL]), that is more similar to the usual
AC_SUBST macro; this is only a preparatory change in view of future
refactorings.

No semantic change is intended.  In fact, the generated configure file
doesn't change at all.

Even though the index can record pathnames longer than 1<<12 bytes,
in some places we were not comparing them in full, potentially
replacing index entries instead of adding.

"git commit --amend --only --" was meant to allow "Clever" people to
rewrite the commit message without making any change even when they
have already changes for the next commit added to their index, but
it never worked as advertised since it was introduced in 1.3.0 era.

* jk/maint-commit-amend-only-no-paths:

A handful of files and directories we create had tighter than

  rerere: make rr-cache fanout directory honor umask
  Restore umasks influence on the permissions of work tree created by clone

Due to the way "git diff --no-index" is bolted onto by touching the
low level code that is shared with the rest of the "git diff" code,
even though it has to work in a very different way, any comparison
that involves a file "-" at the root level incorrectly tried to read
from the standard input.  This cleans up the no-index codepath
further to remove code that reads from the standard input from the
core side, which is never necessary when git is running its usual
diff operation.

* jc/refactor-diff-stdin:
  diff-index.c: "git diff" has no need to read blob from the standard input
  diff-index.c: unify handling of command line paths
  diff-index.c: do not pretend paths are pathspecs

Trivially correct clean-up and micro optimization.

* tg/ce-namelen:
  Replace strlen() with ce_namelen()

Teaches git to normalize pathnames read from readdir(3) and all
arguments from the command line into precomposed UTF-8 (assuming
that they come as decomposed UTF-8) to work around issues on Mac OS.

I think there still are other places that need conversion
(e.g. paths that are read from stdin for some commands), but this
should be a good first step in the right direction.

* tb/sanitize-decomposed-utf-8-pathname:
  git on Mac OS and precomposed unicode

* mm/mediawiki-tests:
  git-remote-mediawiki: be more defensive when requests fail
  git-remote-mediawiki: more efficient 'pull' in the best case

  vcs-svn: suppress a signed/unsigned comparison warning
  vcs-svn: suppress signed/unsigned comparison warnings
  vcs-svn: use strstr instead of memmem

"mediawiki" remote helper (in contrib/) learned to handle file
attachments.

* mm/mediawiki-file-attachments:
  git-remote-mediawiki: improve support for non-English Wikis

  git-remote-mediawiki: split get_mw_pages into smaller functions

  git-remote-mediawiki: don't compute the diff when getting commit message

Fixes "git show"'s auto-walking behaviour, and make it behave just
like "git log" does when it walks.

* tr/maint-show-walk:
  show: fix "range implies walking"
  Demonstrate git-show is broken with ranges

Teach "am --rebasing" codepath to grab authorship, log message and
the patch text directly out of existing commits.  This will help
rebasing commits that have confusing "diff" output in their log
messages.

* mz/rebase-no-mbox:
  am: don't call mailinfo if $rebasing
  am --rebasing: get patch body from commit, not from mailbox
  rebase --root: print usage on too many args
  rebase: don't source git-sh-setup twice

For -M option (detectRenames) in P4Submit, use 'p4 move' rather
than 'p4 integrate'.  Check Perforce server for exisitence of
'p4 move' and use it if present, otherwise revert to 'p4 integrate'.

On Cygwin, the platform pread(2) is not thread safe, just like our own

When "git log" gets "--simplify-merges/by-decoration" together with
"--first-parent", the combination of these options makes the
simplification logic to use in-core commit objects that haven't been
examined for relevance, either producing incorrect result or taking
too long to produce any output.  Teach the simplification logic to
ignore commits that the first-parent traversal logic ignored when
both are in effect to work around the issue.

* jc/rev-list-simplify-merges-first-parent:
  revision: ignore side parents while running simplify-merges
  revision: note the lack of free() in simplify_merges()
  revision: "simplify" options imply topo-order sort

"git diff COPYING HEAD:COPYING" gave a nonsense error message that
