The option --force should not put us in 'create branch' mode. The
fact that this option is only valid in 'create branch' mode is
already caught by the the next 'if' in which we assure that we
are in the correct mode.

Without this patch, "git branch -f" without any other argument ends
up calling create_branch without any branch name.

The "git cherry-pick --abort" command currently renames the
.git/sequencer directory to .git/sequencer-old instead of removing it
on success due to an accident.  cherry-pick --abort is designed to
work in three steps:

 1) find which commit to roll back to
 2) call "git reset --merge <commit>" to move to that commit
 3) remove the .git/sequencer directory

But the careless author forgot step 3 entirely.  The only reason the
command worked anyway is that "git reset --merge <commit>" renames the
.git/sequencer directory as a secondary effect --- after moving to
<commit>, or so the logic goes, it is unlikely but possible that the
caller of git reset wants to continue the series of cherry-picks that
was in progress, so git renames the sequencer state to
.git/sequencer-old to be helpful while allowing the cherry-pick to be
resumed if the caller did not want to end the sequence after all.

By running "git cherry-pick --abort", the operator has clearly
indicated that she is not planning to continue cherry-picking.  Remove
the (renamed) .git/sequencer directory as intended all along.

On Windows, it is not possible to rename or remove a directory that has
open files. 'revert --abort' renamed .git/sequencer when it still had
.git/sequencer/head open. Close the file as early as possible to allow

After running some ill-advised command like "git cherry-pick
HEAD..linux-next", the bewildered novice may want to return to more
familiar territory.  Introduce a "git cherry-pick --abort" command
that rolls back the entire cherry-pick sequence and places the
repository back on solid ground.

Just like "git merge --abort", this internally uses "git reset
--merge", so local changes not involved in the conflict resolution are
preserved.

When conflicts are encountered while reverting a commit, it can be
handy to have the name of that commit easily available.  For example,
to produce a copy of the patch to refer to while resolving conflicts:

	$ git revert 2eceb2a8
	error: could not revert 2eceb2a8... awesome, buggy feature
	$ git show -R REVERT_HEAD >the-patch
	$ edit $(git diff --name-only)

Set a REVERT_HEAD pseudoref when "git revert" does not make a commit,
for cases like this.  This also makes it possible for scripts to
distinguish between a revert that encountered conflicts and other
sources of an unmerged index.

After successfully committing, resetting with "git reset", or moving
to another commit with "git checkout" or "git reset", the pseudoref is
no longer useful, so remove it.

In the spirit of v1.6.3.3~3^2 (refuse to merge during a merge,
2009-07-01), "git cherry-pick" refuses to start a new cherry-pick when
in the middle of an existing conflicted cherry-pick in the following
sequence:

 1. git cherry-pick HEAD..origin
 2. resolve conflicts
 3. git cherry-pick HEAD..origin (instead of "git cherry-pick
    --continue", by mistake)

Good.  However, the error message on attempting step 3 is more
convoluted than necessary:

  $ git cherry-pick HEAD..origin
  error: .git/sequencer already exists.
  error: A cherry-pick or revert is in progress.
  hint: Use --continue to continue the operation
  hint: or --quit to forget about it
  fatal: cherry-pick failed

Clarify by removing the redundant first "error:" message, simplifying
the advice, and using lower-case and no full stops to be consistent
with other commands that prefix their messages with "error:", so it
becomes

  error: a cherry-pick or revert is already in progress
  hint: try "git cherry-pick (--continue | --quit)"
  fatal: cherry-pick failed

The "fatal: cherry-pick failed" line seems unnecessary, too, but
that can be fixed some other day.

The option to "git cherry-pick" and "git revert" to discard the
sequencer state introduced by v1.7.8-rc0~141^2~6 (revert: Introduce
--reset to remove sequencer state, 2011-08-04) has a confusing name.
Change it now, while we still have the time.

The new name for "cherry-pick, please get out of my way, since I've
long forgotten about the sequence of commits I was cherry-picking when
you wrote that old .git/sequencer directory" is --quit.  Mnemonic:
this is analagous to quiting a program the user is no longer using ---
we just want to get out of the multiple-command cherry-pick procedure
and not to reset HEAD or rewind any other old state.

The "--reset" option is kept as a synonym to minimize the impact.  We
might consider dropping it for simplicity in a separate patch, though.

Adjust documentation and tests to use the newly preferred name (--quit)
instead of --reset.  While at it, let's clarify the short descriptions
of these operations in "-h" output.

Before:

	--reset		forget the current operation
	--continue	continue the current operation

After:

	--quit		end revert or cherry-pick sequence
	--continue	resume revert or cherry-pick sequence

The git_path_check_eol() function converts a string value to the

complain thus:

On cygwin, test number 21 of t3200-branch.sh (git branch -m q q2
without config should succeed) fails. The failure involves the
functions from path.c which parcel out internal static buffers
from the git_path() and mkpath() functions.

In particular, the rename_ref() function calls safe_create_leading\
_directories() with a filename returned by git_path("logs/%s", ref).
safe_create_leading_directories(), in turn, calls stat() on each
element of the path it is given. On cygwin, this leads to a call
to git_config() for each component of the path, since this test
explicitly removes the config file. git_config() calls mkpath(), so
on the fourth component of the path, the original buffer passed
into the function is overwritten with the config filename.

Note that this bug is specific to cygwin and it's schizophrenic
stat() functions (see commits adbc0b6b, 7faee6b8 and 79748439). The
lack of a config file and a path with at least four elements is
also important to trigger the bug.

In order to fix the problem, we replace the call to mkpath() with
a call to mksnpath() and provide our own buffer.

In particular, the url passed to git-clone has an extra '/' given
after the 'file://' schema prefix, thus:

    git clone --reference=original "file:///$(pwd)/original one

Once the prefix is removed, the remainder of the url looks something
like "//home/ramsay/git/t/...", which is then interpreted as an
network path. This then results in a "Permission denied" error, like
so:

    ramsay $ ls //home
    ls: cannot access //home: No such host or network path
    ramsay $ ls //home/ramsay
    ls: cannot access //home/ramsay: Permission denied
    ramsay $

In order to fix the problem, we simply remove the extraneous '/'
character from the url.

Now that the COMPUTE_HEADER_DEPENDENCIES feature is turned on
automatically for compilers that support it (see v1.7.8-rc0~142^2~1,
2011-08-18), there is no easy way to force it off.  For example,
setting COMPUTE_HEADER_DEPENDENCIES to the empty string in config.mak
just tells the makefile to treat it as undefined and run a test
command to see if the -MMD option is supported.

So allow setting COMPUTE_HEADER_DEPENDENCIES=no to explicitly force
the feature off.  The new semantics:

 - "yes" means to explicitly enable the feature
 - "no" means to disable it
 - "auto" means to autodetect

The default is still "auto".  Any value other than these three will
cause the build to error out with a descriptive message so typos and
stale settings in config.mak don't result in mysterious behavior.

	Makefile:1278: *** please set COMPUTE_HEADER_DEPENDENCIES to
	yes, no, or auto (not "1").  Stop.

So now when someone using a compiler without -MMD support reports
trouble building git, you can reproduce it by running "make
COMPUTE_HEADER_DEPENDENCIES=no".

The macro is variadic, which breaks support for pre-C99 compilers,
and it hides an "if", which can make code hard to understand on
first reading if some arguments have side-effects.

The OUTPUT macro seems to have been inspired by the "output" function
from merge-recursive.  But that function in merge-recursive exists to
indent output based on the level of recursion and there is no similar
justification for such a function in "notes merge".

Noticed with 'make CC="gcc -std=c89 -pedantic"':

Because git_path() calls vsnprintf(), code like

	fd = open(git_path("SQUASH_MSG"), O_WRONLY | O_CREAT, 0666);
	die_errno(_("Could not write to '%s'"), git_path("SQUASH_MSG"));

can end up printing an error indicator from vsnprintf() instead of
open() by mistake.  Store the path we are trying to write to in a
temporary variable and pass _that_ to die_errno(), so the messages
written by git cherry-pick/revert and git merge can avoid this source

The add_extra_ref() interface is used to add an extra-ref that is _not_
our ref for the purpose of helping auto-following of tags and reducing
object transfer from remote repository, and they are typically formatted
as a tagname followed by ^{} to make sure no valid refs match that
pattern. In other words, these entries are deliberately formatted not to
pass check-refname-format test.

A recent series however added a test unconditionally to the add_ref()
function that is called from add_extra_ref(). The check may be sensible
for other two callsites of the add_ref() interface, but definitely is
a wrong thing to do in add_extra_ref(). Disable it.

Some of the fatal messages printed by revert and cherry-pick look ugly
like the following:

  fatal: Could not open .git/sequencer/todo.: No such file or directory

The culprit here is that these callers of the die_errno() function did not
take it into account that the message string they give to it is followed
by ": <strerror>", hence the message typically should not end with the
full-stop.
