The t/perf performance test suite was not prepared to test not so
old versions of Git, but now it covers versions of Git that are not
so ancient.

* jt/perf-updates:
  t/perf: add fallback for pre-bin-wrappers versions of git
  t/perf: use $MODERN_GIT for all repo-copying steps
  t/perf: export variable used in other blocks

An helper function to make it easier to append the result from
real_path() to a strbuf has been added.

The "parse_config_key()" API function has been cleaned up.

The code to parse "git -c VAR=VAL cmd" and set configuration
variable for the duration of cmd had two small bugs, which have
been fixed.
This supersedes jc/config-case-cmdline topic that has been discarded.

  config: use git_config_parse_key() in git_config_parse_parameter()
  config: move a few helper functions up

The code to parse the command line "git grep <patterns>... <rev>
[[--] <pathspec>...]" has been cleaned up, and a handful of bugs
have been fixed (e.g. we used to check "--" if it is a rev).

* jk/grep-no-index-fix:
  grep: treat revs the same for --untracked as for --no-index
  grep: do not diagnose misspelt revs with --no-index
  grep: avoid resolving revision names in --no-index case

  grep: re-order rev-parsing loop
  grep: do not unnecessarily query repo for "--"
  grep: move thread initialization a little lower

"git ls-remote" and "git archive --remote" are designed to work
without being in a directory under Git's control.  However, recent
updates revealed that we randomly look into a directory called
.git/ without actually doing necessary set-up when working in a
repository.  Stop doing so.

* jn/remote-helpers-with-git-dir:
  remote helpers: avoid blind fall-back to ".git" when setting GIT_DIR
  remote: avoid reading $GIT_DIR config in non-repo

Code to read submodule.<name>.ignore config did not state the
variable name correctly when giving an error message diagnosing
misconfiguration.

* sb/submodule-config-parse-ignore-fix:
  submodule-config: correct error reporting for invalid ignore value

"git push" had a handful of codepaths that could lead to a deadlock
when unexpected error happened, which has been fixed.

* jk/push-deadlock-regression-fix:
  send-pack: report signal death of pack-objects
  send-pack: read "unpack" status even on pack-objects failure
  send-pack: improve unpack-status error messages
  send-pack: use skip_prefix for parsing unpack status
  send-pack: extract parsing of "unpack" response
  receive-pack: fix deadlock when we cannot create tmpdir

"Cc:" on the trailer part does not have to conform to RFC strictly,
unlike in the e-mail header.  "git send-email" has been updated to
ignore anything after '>' when picking addresses, to allow non-address
cruft like " # stable 4.4" after the address.

A test that creates a confusing branch whose name is HEAD has been

"git show-branch" expected there were only very short branch names
in the repository and used a fixed-length buffer to hold them
without checking for overflow.

* jk/show-branch-lift-name-len-limit:
  show-branch: use skip_prefix to drop magic numbers
  show-branch: store resolved head in heap buffer
  show-branch: drop head_len variable

A caller of tempfile API that uses stdio interface to write to
files may ignore errors while writing, which is detected when
tempfile is closed (with a call to ferror()).  By that time, the
original errno that may have told us what went wrong is likely to
be long gone and was overwritten by an irrelevant value.
close_tempfile() now resets errno to EIO to make errno at least
predictable.

* jk/tempfile-ferror-fclose-confusion:
  tempfile: set errno to a known value before calling ferror()

"git remote rm X", when a branch has remote X configured as the
value of its branch.*.remote, tried to remove branch.*.remote and
branch.*.merge and failed if either is unset.

* rl/remote-allow-missing-branch-name-merge:
  remote: ignore failure to remove missing branch.<name>.merge

A "gc.log" file left by a backgrounded "gc --auto" disables further
automatic gc; it has been taught to run at least once a day (by

  gc: ignore old gc.log files

"git upload-pack", which is a counter-part of "git fetch", did not
report a request for a ref that was not advertised as invalid.
This is generally not a problem (because "git fetch" will stop
before making such a request), but is the right thing to do.

* jt/upload-pack-error-report:
  upload-pack: report "not our ref" to client

"git diff --quiet" relies on the size field in diff_filespec to be
correctly populated, but diff_populate_filespec() helper function
made an incorrect short-cut when asked only to populate the size
field for paths that need to go through convert_to_git() (e.g. CRLF
conversion).

* jc/diff-populate-filespec-size-only-fix:
  diff: do not short-cut CHECK_SIZE_ONLY check in diff_populate_filespec()

Change the documentation for push.tracking=* to re-include a mention
of what "tracking" does.

The "tracking" option was renamed to "upstream" back in
53c40311 ("push.default: Rename 'tracking' to 'upstream'", 2011-02-16),
this section was then subsequently rewritten in 87a70e4c ("config doc:
rewrite push.default section", 2013-06-19) to remove any mention of
"tracking".

Maybe we should just warn or die nowadays if this option is in the
config, but I had some old config of mine use this option, I'd
forgotten that it was a synonym, and nothing in git's documentation
mentioned that.

That's bad, either we shouldn't support it at all, or we should
document what it does. This patch does the latter.

The hook was added in a86ed83c (Merge branch 'tr/notes-display' -
2010-03-24), which updated githooks.txt but not git-commit.txt.

git-commit.txt was later updated in e858af6d (commit: document a
couple of options - 2012-06-08). Since this commit focused on command
line options, this section was probably forgotten.

Git v2.12 was shipped with an embarrassing breakage where various
