"git push $URL HEAD~6" created a bogus ref HEAD~6 immediately
under $GIT_DIR of the remote repository. While we should keep
refspecs that have arbitrary extended SHA-1 expression on the
source side working (e.g. "HEAD~6:refs/tags/yesterday"), we
should not create bogus ref on the other end.

The documentation talked about "git push $URL tag <tag>" as a short-hand
for refs/tags/<tag>:refs/tags/<tag> for a long time but that was never
the case (the short-hand was for "git fetch"). Instead of fixing the
documentation, just add a bit of code to match it since it is easy to do
and would make it more consistent.

Prior to 65ac6e9c3f47807cb603af07a6a9e1a43bc119ae we deleted a file
from the working directory during a merge if the file existed before
the merge started but was renamed by the branch being merged in.
This broke in 65ac6e as git-merge-recursive did not actually update
the working directory on an uncontested rename.

While adding colour to the branch command it was pointed out that a
config option like "branch.color" conflicts with the pre-existing
"branch.something" namespace used for specifying default merge urls and
branches. The suggested solution was to flip the order of the
components to "color.branch", which I did for colourising branch.
This patch does the same thing for
- git-log (color.diff)
- git-status (color.status)
- git-diff (color.diff)
- pager (color.pager)
I haven't removed the old config options; but they should probably be
deprecated and eventually removed to prevent future namespace
collisions. I've done this deprecation by changing the documentation
for the config file to match the new names; and adding the "color.XXX"
options to contrib/completion/git-completion.bash.
Unfortunately git-svn reads "diff.color" and "pager.color"; which I
don't like to change unilaterally.

Information in the untracked.log include:
* the addition and removal of empty directories
(changes of these will also warn the user)
* file and directory property changes, including (but not
limited to) svk:merge and svn:externals
* revision properties (revprops) are also tracked
* users will be warned of 'absent' file and directories
(if users are forbidden access)
Fields in entries are separated by spaces; "unsafe" characters
are URI-encoded so that each entry takes exactly one line.

* maint:
Make sure the empty tree exists when needed in merge-recursive.
Don't use memcpy when source and dest. buffers may overlap
no need to install manpages as executable
There are some baseless merge cases where git-merge-recursive will
try to compare one of the branches against the empty tree. However
most projects won't have the empty tree object in their object database
as Git does not normally create empty tree objects. If the empty tree
object is missing then the merge process will die, as it cannot load the
object from the database. The error message may make the user think that
their database is corrupt when its actually not.
So instead we should just create the empty tree object whenever it is
needed. If the object already exists as a loose object then no harm
done. Otherwise that loose object will be pruned away later by either
git-prune or git-prune-packed.
Thanks goes to Junio for suggesting this fix.

Currently the treshold is 5000. The likelihood of this value to ever be
crossed for a single push is really small making it not really useful.
The optimal treshold for a pure space saving on a filesystem with 4kb
blocks is 3. However this is likely to create many small packs
concentrating a large number of files in a single directory compared to
the same objects which are spread over 256 directories when loose. This
means we would need 512 objects per pack on average to approximagte the
same directory cost (a pack has 2 files because of the index).
But 512 is a really high value just like 5000 since most pushes are
unlikely to have that many objects. So let's try with a value of 100
which should have a good balance between small pushes going to be
exploded into loose objects and large pushes kept as whole packs.
This is not a replacement for periodic repacks of course.

import a repository from cvs. Though this seems chronologically
backwards, it's still readable in this order, and it puts the more

Remove the annotate/pickaxe section; perhaps it can find a place elsewhere
in the future. Remove most of the "why git is better than cvs" stuff from
the introduction.
Add some minor clarifications, including two that have come up several
times on the mailing list:
1. Recommend committing any changes before running pull.
2. Note that changes must be commited before they can be pushed.

An earlier commit a9cb3c6e changed git-commit to use the
contents of MERGE_MSG even when we do not have MERGE_HEAD (the
rationale is in its log message).
However, the change tricks the following sequence to include a
merge message in a completely unrelated commit:
$ git pull somewhere
: oops, the conflicts are too much. forget it.
$ git reset --hard
: work work work
$ git commit
To fix this confusion, this patch makes "git reset" to remove
the leftover MERGE_MSG that was prepared when the user abandoned
the merge.
