"git rev-parse" interprets string in string@{upstream} as a name of
a branch not a ref. For example, refs/heads/master@{upstream} looks
for an upstream branch that is merged by git-pull to ref
refs/heads/refs/heads/master not to refs/heads/master.

However the documentation could mislead a user to believe that the
string is interpreted as ref.

The only caller of diagnose_invalid_sha1_path() extracts a substring from

Add a length parameter to the function and thus avoid the need for an

A more informative message for "complete" bundles was added in commit
8c3710fd (tweak "bundle verify" of a complete history, 2012-06-04).

However, the prerequisites ref list is currently read *after* we
check if it equals zero, which means we never actually use the
number of prerequisite refs to decide when to print the newly
introduced message.  The code incorrectly uses the number of
references recorded in the bundle instead.

Before 82dce998 (attr: more matching optimizations from .gitignore,
2012-10-15), .gitattributes did not have any special treatment of a
leading '!'.  The docs, however, always said

  The rules how the pattern matches paths are the same as in
  `.gitignore` files; see linkgit:gitignore[5].

By those rules, leading '!' means pattern negation.  So 82dce998
correctly determined that this kind of line makes no sense and should
be disallowed.

However, users who actually had a rule for files starting with a '!'
are in a bad position: before 82dce998 '!' matched that literal
character, so it is conceivable that users have .gitattributes with
such lines in them.  After 82dce998 the unescaped version was
disallowed in such a way that git outright refuses to run(!) most
commands in the presence of such a .gitattributes.  It therefore
becomes very hard to fix, let alone work with, such repositories.

Let's at least allow the users to fix their repos: change the fatal
error into a warning.
