Attempting to mmap (via git-add or similar) a file larger than 4GB on
32-bit Linux systems results in a repository that has only the file
modulo 4GB stored, because of truncation of the off_t file size to a
size_t for mmap.
When xsize_t was introduced to handle this truncation in dc49cd7 (Cast
64 bit off_t to 32 bit size_t, 2007-03-06), Shawn even pointed out
that it should detect when such a cutoff happens.
Make it so.

When performing a non-interactive rebase, sometimes
"git rebase --continue" will fail if an unmodified file is
touched in the working directory:
You must edit all merge conflicts and then
mark them as resolved using git add
This is caused by "git diff-files" reporting a difference
between the index and the filesystem:
:100644 100644 d00491...... 000000...... M file
The fix is to run "git update-index --refresh" before
"git diff-files" as is done in git-rebase--interactive.

The behavior of "git ls-files -t" is very misleading (see

http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/144394/focus=144397
for examples of mislead users) and badly documented, hence we point the
users to superior alternatives.
The feature is marked as "semi-obsolete" but not "scheduled for removal"
since it's a plumbing command, scripts might use it, and Git testsuite
already uses it to test the state of the index.

The wording of the Signed-off-by rules could be read as stating that
S-O-B should only be added when the submitter considered the patch
ready for inclusion in git.git.
We also want Signed-off-by to be used for e.g. RFC patches, in case
someone wants to dig an old patch out of the archive and improve
it. Change the wording to recommend a Signed-off-by for all submitted
patches.
The problem with the wording came up in the "[PATCH/RFC] Hacky version
of a glob() driven config include" thread[1]. Bert Wesarg suggested[2]
that it be removed to avoid confusion, which this change implements.

A bit of history in chronological order, the newest at bottom:
- 80ccaa7 (upload-pack: Move the revision walker into a separate function.)
do_rev_list was introduced with create_full_pack argument
- 21edd3f (upload-pack: Run rev-list in an asynchronous function.)
do_rev_list was now called by start_async, create_full_pack was
passed by rev_list.data
- f0cea83 (Shift object enumeration out of upload-pack)
rev_list.data was now zero permanently. Creating full pack was
done by passing --all to pack-objects
- ae6a560 (run-command: support custom fd-set in async)
rev_list.data = 0 was found out redudant and got rid of.
Get rid of the code as well, for less headache while reading do_rev_list.

Given a file with:
(define archive-id "$Format:%ct|%h|a$")
and an export-subst attribute, the "%h" results in an full 40-digit
object name instead of the expected 7-digit one.
The export-subst feature requests unabbreviated object names because
that is the low-level default. The effect was not observable until
v1.7.1.1~17^2~3 (2010-05-03), which taught log --format=%h to respect
the --abbrev option.

One test case checked the stdout and stderr of 'git add' by constructing a
single 'expect' file that contained both streams. But when the command
runs, the order of stdout and stderr output is unpredictable because it
depends on how the streams are buffered. At least on Windows, the buffering
is different from what the test case expected. Hence, check the two output

On systems with an echo which defaults to the XSI-conformant behavior
(Solaris, or others using Ksh), echo will interpret certain backslashed
characters as control sequences. This can cause a problem for interactive
rebase when it is used to rebase commits whose commit "subject" (the first
line) contains any of these backslashed sequences. In this case, echo will
substitute the control sequence for the backslashed characters and either
the rebased commit message will differ from the original, or the rebase
process will fail. Neither is desirable.
So work around this issue by replacing the echo statements used to print
out portions of the commit message, with printf.
Also, add a test to test for this breakage.

We currently do not disable diff.renames configuration while rebase
internally runs "format-patch" to feed "am -3".
The end user configuration for "diff" should not affect the result
produced by the higher level command that is related to "diff" only
because internally it is implemented in terms of it.
For that matter, I have a feeling that format-patch should not even look
at diff.renames, but we seem to have been doing this for a long time so
there is no easy way to fix this thinko.
In any case, here is a much straightforward fix for "rebase".

With v1.5.3.2~14 (apply --index-info: fall back to current index for
mode changes, 2007-09-17), git apply learned to stop worrying
about the lack of diff index line when a file already present in the
current index had no content change.
But it still worries too much: for rename patches, it is checking
that both the old and new filename are present in the current
index. This makes no sense, since a file rename generally
involves creating a file there was none before.
So just check the old filename.

Most tests in t4150 begin by navigating to a sane state and
applying some patch:
git checkout first &&
git am patch1
If a previous test left behind unmerged files or a .git/rebase-apply
directory, they are untouched and the test fails, causing later tests
to fail, too. This is not a problem in practice because none of the
tests leave a mess behind.
But as a futureproofing measure, it is still best to avoid the problem
and clean up at the start of each test. In particular, this
simplifies the process of adding new tests that are known to fail.

Place setup commands in test_expect_success blocks. This makes the

Instead of running test -z against the result of "git diff" command
substitution, use "git diff --exit-code", to improve output when
running with the "-v" option.
Use test_cmp in place of "test $(foo) = $(bar)" for similar reasons.
