Prior to 1f2baa78 (config: treat non-existent config files as
empty, 2010-10-21), we returned an error if any config files
were missing. That commit made this a non-error, but
returned the number of sources found, in case any caller
wanted to distinguish this case.

In the past 5+ years, no caller has; the only two places
which bother to check the return value care only about the
error case.  Let's drop this code, which complicates the
function. Similarly, let's drop the "found anything" return
from git_config_from_parameters, which was present only to
support this (and similarly has never had other callers care
for the past 5+ years).

Note that we do need to update a comment in one of the
callers, even though the code immediately below it doesn't
care about this case.

"git difftool" learned to handle unmerged paths correctly in
dir-diff mode.

* da/difftool:
  difftool: handle unmerged files in dir-diff mode
  difftool: initialize variables for readability

t9xxx series has been updated primarily for readability, while
fixing small bugs in it.  A few scripted Porcelains have also been
updated to fix possible bugs around their use of "test -z" and
"test -n".

* jk/test-z-n-unquoted:
  always quote shell arguments to test -z/-n
  t9103: modernize test style
  t9107: switch inverted single/double quotes in test
  t9107: use "return 1" instead of "exit 1"
  t9100,t3419: enclose all test code in single-quotes
  t/lib-git-svn: drop $remote_git_svn and $git_svn_id

Many commands normalize command line arguments from NFD to NFC
variant of UTF-8 on OSX, but commands in the "diff" family did
not, causing "git diff $path" to complain that no such path is
known to Git.  They have been taught to do the normalization.

* ar/diff-args-osx-precompose:
  diff: run arguments through precompose_argv

Find common mistakes when writing gitlink: in our documentation and
drive the check from "make check-docs".

I am not entirely happy with the way the script chooses what input
file to validate, but it is not worse than not having anything, so
let's move it forward and have the logic improved later when people
care about it deeply.

* jc/doc-lint:
  ci: validate "linkgit:" in documentation

Add perf test for "rebase -i"

* js/perf-rebase-i:
  perf: run "rebase -i" under perf
  perf: make the tests work in worktrees
  perf: let's disable symlinks when they are not available

t0040 had too many unnecessary repetitions in its test data.  Teach
test-parse-options program so that a caller can tell what it
expects in its output, so that these repetitions can be cleaned up.

* jc/test-parse-options-expect:
  t0040: convert a few tests to use test-parse-options --expect
  t0040: remove unused test helpers
  test-parse-options: --expect=<string> option to simplify tests
  test-parse-options: fix output when callback option fails

"git commit" learned to pay attention to "commit.verbose"
configuration variable and act as if "--verbose" option was
given from the command line.

* pb/commit-verbose-config:
  commit: add a commit.verbose config variable
  t7507-commit-verbose: improve test coverage by testing number of diffs
  parse-options.c: make OPTION_COUNTUP respect "unspecified" values
  t/t7507: improve test coverage
  t0040-parse-options: improve test coverage
  test-parse-options: print quiet as integer
  t0040-test-parse-options.sh: fix style issues

"git format-patch" learned a new "--base" option to record what
(public, well-known) commit the original series was built on in
its output.

* xy/format-patch-base:
  format-patch: introduce format.useAutoBase configuration
  format-patch: introduce --base=auto option
  format-patch: add '--base' option to record base tree info
  patch-ids: make commit_patch_id() a public helper function

A couple of bugs around core.autocrlf have been fixed.

* tb/core-eol-fix:
  convert.c: ident + core.autocrlf didn't work
  t0027: test cases for combined attributes
  convert: allow core.autocrlf=input and core.eol=crlf
  t0027: make commit_chk_wrnNNO() reliable

The experimental "multiple worktree" feature gains more safety to
forbid operations on a branch that is checked out or being actively
worked on elsewhere, by noticing that e.g. it is being rebased.

* nd/worktree-various-heads:
  branch: do not rename a branch under bisect or rebase
  worktree.c: check whether branch is bisected in another worktree
  wt-status.c: split bisect detection out of wt_status_get_state()
  worktree.c: check whether branch is rebased in another worktree
  worktree.c: avoid referencing to worktrees[i] multiple times
  wt-status.c: make wt_status_check_rebase() work on any worktree
  wt-status.c: split rebase detection out of wt_status_get_state()
  path.c: refactor and add worktree_git_path()
  worktree.c: mark current worktree
  worktree.c: make find_shared_symref() return struct worktree *
  worktree.c: store "id" instead of "git_dir"
  path.c: add git_common_path() and strbuf_git_common_path()
  dir.c: rename str(n)cmp_icase to fspath(n)cmp

"git commit --dry-run" reported "No, no, you cannot commit." in one
case where "git commit" would have allowed you to commit, and this
improves it a little bit ("git commit --dry-run --short" still does
not give you the correct answer, for example).  This is a stop-gap
measure in that "commit --short --dry-run" still gives an incorrect
result.

* ss/commit-dry-run-resolve-merge-to-no-op:
  wt-status.c: set commitable bit if there is a meaningful merge.
