One long-standing flaw in the pack transfer protocol was that there
was no way to tell the other end which branch "HEAD" points at.
With a capability "symref=HEAD:refs/heads/master", let the sender to
tell the receiver what symbolic ref points at what ref.
This capability can be repeated more than once to represent symbolic
refs other than HEAD, such as "refs/remotes/origin/HEAD").
Add an infrastructure to collect symbolic refs, format them as extra
capabilities and put it on the wire. For now, just send information
on the "HEAD" and nothing else.

The callee does not use cb_data, and the caller is an intermediate
function in a callchain that later wants to use the cb_data for its
own use. Clarify the code by breaking the dataflow explicitly by
not passing cb_data down to mark_our_ref().

When two or more branches point at the same commit and HEAD is
pointing at one of them, without the symref extension, there is no
way to remotely tell which one of these branches HEAD points at.
The test in question attempts to make sure that this situation is
diagnosed and results in a failure.
However, even if there _were_ a way to reliably tell which branch
the HEAD points at, "set-head --auto" would fail if there is no
remote tracking branch. Make sure that this test does not fail
for that "wrong" reason.

As we had to revert two topics at the last minute, let's have
another (hopefully short) round of rc to make sure the final release
will be sound.

This reverts commit cdfd94837b, as it
does not just apply to "@" (and forms with modifiers like @{u}
applied to it), but also affects e.g. "refs/heads/@/foo", which it
shouldn't.
The basic idea of giving a short-hand might be good, and the topic
can be retried later, but let's revert to avoid affecting existing
use cases for now for the upcoming release.
This reverts commit a73653130e, as it
has been reported that "ls-files --killed" is too time-consuming in
a deep directory with too many untracked crufts (e.g. $HOME/.git
tracking only a few files).
We'd need to revisit it later but "ls-files --killed" needs to be
optimized before it happens.
A handful of past contributors are recorded with multiple e-mail
addresses, all of which are undeliverable. With a lot of help from
Jonathan, we located all of them except for one person, and a pair
of addresses we suspect belong to a single person but we are not
certain.
Update the found ones with their currently preferred address, and
use the last known address to consolidate contributions by the lost
one.

This patch adds no new names, but fixes the mistakes I made in the previous
commits. (94b410bba8, f4f49e225, c07a6bc57, 2013-07-12, .mailmap: Map
email addresses to names).
These mistakes are double white spaces between name and surname,
different capitalization in email address, or just the email address set
as name.
Also I forgot to include James Knight to the mailmap file.

In t/t7407-submodule-foreach.sh there is a typo in one of the
path names given for a test step. The correct path is
nested1/nested2/.git, but nested1/nested1/nested2/.git is
given instead. The typo is hidden because this line also
accidentally omits the && chain operator. The omitted chain
also means the return values of all the previous commands in
this test are also being ignored.
Fix the path and add the chain operator so the entire test
sequence can be properly validated.

a469a10193 (silence some -Wuninitialized false positives;
2012-12-15) triggered "unused value" warnings when the return value of
opterror() and several other error-related functions was not used.
5ded807f7c (fix clang -Wunused-value warnings for error functions;
2013-01-16) applied a fix by adding #if !defined(__clang__) in cache.h
and git-compat-util.h, but misspelled it as #if !defined(clang) in
parse-options.h. Fix this.
This mistake went unnoticed because existing callers of opterror()
utilize its return value. 1158826394 (parse-options: add
OPT_CMDMODE(); 2013-07-30), however, adds a new invocation of opterror()
which ignores the return value, thus triggering the "unused value"
warning.

Documentation/rev-list-options: add missing word in --*-parents
log doc: the argument to --encoding is not optional
Sub-test 42 of t8001 and t8002 ("blame -L :literal") fails on NetBSD
with the following verbose output:
git annotate -L:main hello.c
Author F (expected 4, attributed 3) bad
Author G (expected 1, attributed 1) good
This is not caused by different behaviour of git blame or annotate on
that platform, but by different test input, in turn caused by a sed
command that forgets to add a newline on NetBSD. Here's the diff of the
commit that adds "goodbye" to hello.c, for Linux:
@@ -1,4 +1,5 @@
int main(int argc, const char *argv[])
{
puts("hello");
+ puts("goodbye");
}
We see that it adds an extra TAB, but that's not a problem. Here's the
same on NetBSD:

It also adds an extra TAB, but it is missing the newline character
after the semicolon.
The following patch gets rid of the extra TAB at the beginning, but
more importantly adds the missing newline at the end in a (hopefully)
portable way, mentioned in http://sed.sourceforge.net/sedfaq4.html.
The diff becomes this, on both Linux and NetBSD:

It is not like that our longer term desire is to someday start
accept log messages with NULs in them, so it is wrong to mark a test
that demonstrates "git commit" that correctly fails given such an
input as "expect-failure". "git commit" should fail today, and it
should fail the same way in the future given a message with NUL in it.

The test file that the UTF-16 rejection test looks for is missing, but this went
unnoticed because the test is expected to fail anyway; as a consequence, the
test fails because the file containing the commit message is missing, and not
because the test file contains a NUL byte. Fix this by including a sample text
file containing a commit message encoded in UTF-16.

The argument to --encoding has always been mandatory. Unfortunately
manpages like git-rev-list(1), git-log(1), and git-show(1) have
described the option's syntax as "--encoding[=<encoding>]" since it
was first documented. Clarify by removing the extra brackets.

Cygwin port added a "not quite correct but a lot faster and good
enough for many lstat() calls that are only used to see if the
working tree entity matches the index entry" lstat() emulation some
time ago, and it started biting us in places. This removes it and
uses the standard lstat() that comes with Cygwin.
Recent topic that uses lstat on packed-refs file is broken when
this cheating lstat is used, and this is a simplest fix that is
also the cleanest direction to go in the long run.

This reverts commit c334b87b30c1464a1ab563fe1fb8de5eaf0e5bac; the
update assumed that people only used the command to read from
"rev-list --objects" output, whose lines begin with a 40-hex object
name followed by a whitespace, but it turns out that scripts feed
random extended SHA-1 expressions (e.g. "HEAD:$pathname") in which
a whitespace has to be kept.
