"%C(color name)" in the pretty print format always produced ANSI
color escape codes, which was an early design mistake. They now
honor the configuration (e.g. "color.ui = never") and also tty-ness
of the output medium.
* jk/ref-filter-colors:
ref-filter: consult want_color() before emitting colors
pretty: respect color settings for %C placeholders
rev-list: pass diffopt->use_colors through to pretty-print
for-each-ref: load config earlier
color: check color.ui in git_default_config()
ref-filter: pass ref_format struct to atom parsers
ref-filter: factor out the parsing of sorting atoms
ref-filter: make parse_ref_filter_atom a private function
ref-filter: provide a function for parsing sort options
ref-filter: move need_color_reset_at_eol into ref_format
ref-filter: abstract ref format into its own struct
ref-filter: simplify automatic color reset
t: use test_decode_color rather than literal ANSI codes
docs/for-each-ref: update pointer to color syntax
check return value of verify_ref_format()
Remove an example that is now obsolete from a sample hook,
and improve an old example in it that added a sign-off manually
to use the interpret-trailers command.
* ks/prepare-commit-msg-sample:
hook: add a simple first example
hook: add sign-off using "interpret-trailers"
hook: name the positional variables
hook: cleanup script
The patch is read from standard input and not from a parameter.

The paragraph that describes the 'scissors' cleanup mode of
'commit' had the 'cut-line' in the middle of a sentence. This
made it possible for the line to get wrapped on smaler windows.
This shouldn't be the case as it makes it hard for the user to
understand the structure of the cut-line.
Reformat the pragraph to make the 'cut-line' stand on a line of
it's own thus distinguishing it from the rest of the paragraph.
This further prevents it from getting wrapped to some extent.

The i18n config variable used weren't readable as they were in
the crude form of how git stores/uses it's config variables.
Improve it's readability by replacing them with camelCased versions
of config variables as it doesn't have any impact on it's usage.

"git pull --rebase --recurse-submodules" learns to rebase the
branch in the submodules to an updated base.
* sb/pull-rebase-submodule:
builtin/fetch cleanup: always set default value for submodule recursing
pull: optionally rebase submodules (remote submodule changes only)
builtin/fetch: parse recurse-submodules-default at default options parsing
builtin/fetch: factor submodule recurse parsing out to submodule config
Update the hashmap API so that data to customize the behaviour of
the comparison function can be specified at the time a hashmap is
initialized.
* sb/hashmap-customize-comparison:
hashmap: migrate documentation from Documentation/technical into header
patch-ids.c: use hashmap correctly
hashmap.h: compare function has access to a data field
The color placeholders have traditionally been
unconditional, showing colors even when git is not otherwise
configured to do so. This was not so bad for their original
use, which was on the command-line (and the user could
decide at that moment whether to add colors or not). But
these days we have configured formats via pretty.*, and
those should operate correctly in multiple contexts.
In 3082517 (log --format: teach %C(auto,black) to respect
color config, 2012-12-17), we gave an extended placeholder
that could be used to accomplish this. But it's rather
clunky to use, because you have to specify it individually
for each color (and their matching resets) in the format.
We shied away from just switching the default to auto,
because it is technically breaking backwards compatibility.
However, there's not really a use case for unconditional
colors. The most plausible reason you would want them is to
redirect "git log" output to a file. But there, the right
answer is --color=always, as it does the right thing both
with custom user-format colors and git-generated colors.
So let's switch to the more useful default. In the
off-chance that somebody really does find a use for
unconditional colors without wanting to enable the rest of
git's colors, we provide a new %C(always,...) to enable the
old behavior. And we can remind them of --color=always in
the documentation.

The documentation for the %(color) placeholder refers to the
color.branch.* config for more details. But those details
moved to their own section in b92c1a28f
(Documentation/config.txt: describe 'color' value type in
the "Values" section, 2015-03-03). Let's update our
pointer. We can steal the text from 30cfe72d3 (pretty: fix
document link for color specification, 2016-10-11), which
fixed the same problem in a different place.
While we're at it, let's give an example, which makes the
syntax much more clear than just the text.

upcoming changes. Preparation includes removal of
an example that has outlived it's purpose. The example
is the one that comments the "Conflicts:" part of a
merge commit message. It isn't relevant anymore as
it's done by default since 261f315b ("merge & sequencer:
turn "Conflicts:" hint into a comment", 2014-08-28).
Further update the relevant comments from the sample script
and update the documentation.
