If you remove a submodule, in order to keep the repository so that
"git checkout" to an older commit in the superproject history can
resurrect the submodule, the real repository will stay in $GIT_DIR
of the superproject.  A later "git submodule add $path" to add a
different submodule at the same path will fail.  Diagnose this case
a bit better, and if the user really wants to add an unrelated
submodule at the same path, give the "--name" option to give it a
place in $GIT_DIR of the superproject that does not conflict with
the original submodule.

no local changes in the submodule working tree, and its repository
is not embedded in its working tree but is elsewhere and uses the

git pull --rebase does some clever tricks to find the base
for $upstream, but it forgets that we may not have any
branch at all.  When this happens, git merge-base reports its
"usage" help in the middle of an otherwise successful
rebase operation, because git-merge is called with one too
few parameters.

Since we do not need the merge-base trick in the case of a
detached HEAD, detect this condition and bypass the clever
trick and the usage noise.

This saves us some code, but it also reduces the number of
processes we start for each filtered commit. Since we can
parse both author and committer in the same sed invocation,
we save one process. And since the new interface avoids tr,
we save 4 processes.

It also avoids using "tr", which has had some odd
portability problems reported with from Solaris's xpg6
version.

We also tweak one of the tests in t7003 to double-check that
we are properly exporting the variables (because test-lib.sh
exports GIT_AUTHOR_NAME, it will be automatically exported
in subprograms. We override this to make sure that
filter-branch handles it properly itself).

The only ident-parsing function we currently provide is
get_author_ident_from_commit. This is not very
flexible for two reasons:

  1. It takes a commit as an argument, and can't read from
     commit headers saved on disk.

  2. It will only parse authors, not committers.

This patch provides a more flexible interface which will
parse multiple idents from a commit provide on stdin. We can
easily use it as a building block for the current function
to retain compatibility.

You can currently set the output format to --short or
--porcelain. There is no --long, because we default to it
already. However, you may want to override an alias that
uses "--short" to get back to the default.

This requires a little bit of refactoring, because currently
we use STATUS_FORMAT_LONG internally to mean the same as
"the user did not specify anything". By expanding the enum
to include STATUS_FORMAT_NONE, we can distinguish between
the implicit and explicit cases. This effects these
conditions:

  1. The user has asked for NUL termination. With NONE, we
     currently default to turning on the porcelain mode.
     With an explicit --long, we would in theory use NUL
     termination with the long mode, but it does not support
     it. So we can just complain and die.

  2. When an output format is given to "git commit", we
     default to "--dry-run". This behavior would now kick in
     when "--long" is given, too.

a deleted branch to make it easier for a user to undo the

Before a branch is deleted, we check that it points to a valid
commit.  With -d we also check that the commit is a merged; this
check is not done with -D.

The reason for that is that commits pointed to by branches should
never go missing; if they do then something broke and it's better
to stop instead of adding to the mess.  And a non-merged commit
may contain changes that are worth preserving, so we require the
stronger option -D instead of -d to get rid of them.

If a branch consists of a symref, these concerns don't apply.
Deleting such a branch can't make a commit become unreferenced,
so we don't need to check if it is merged, or even if it is
actually a valid commit.  Skip them in that case.  This allows
us to delete dangling symref branches.

The current behavior is to return NULL when strbuf did not
actually allocate a string. This can be quite surprising to
callers, though, who may feed the strbuf from arbitrary data
and expect to always get a valid value.

In most cases, it does not make a difference because calling
any strbuf function will cause an allocation (even if the
function ends up not inserting any data). But if the code is
structured like:

  struct strbuf buf = STRBUF_INIT;
  if (some_condition)
	  strbuf_addstr(&buf, some_string);
  return strbuf_detach(&buf, NULL);

then you may or may not return NULL, depending on the
condition. This can cause us to segfault in http-push
(when fed an empty URL) and in http-backend (when an empty
parameter like "foo=bar&&" is in the $QUERY_STRING).

This patch forces strbuf_detach to allocate an empty
NUL-terminated string when it is called on a strbuf that has
not been allocated.

I investigated all call-sites of strbuf_detach. The majority
are either not affected by the change (because they call a
strbuf_* function unconditionally), or can handle the empty
string just as easily as NULL.

When running "git-gui blame" from a subfolder (which means prefix is
non-empty), if we pass a full path as argument, the argument parsing
will fail to recognize the argument as a file name, because prefix is
prepended to the argument.

This patch handles that scenario by adding an additional branch that
checks the file name without using the prefix.
