If the user has not specified an identity and we have to
turn to getpwuid() to find the username or gecos field, we
die immediately when getpwuid fails (e.g., because the user
does not exist). This is OK for making a commit, where we
have set IDENT_STRICT and would want to bail on bogus input.
But for something like a reflog, where the ident is "best
effort", it can be pain. For instance, even running "git
clone" with a UID that is not in /etc/passwd will result in
git barfing, just because we can't find an ident to put in
the reflog.
Instead of dying in xgetpwuid_self, we can instead return a
fallback value, and set a "bogus" flag. For the username in
an email, we already have a "default_email_is_bogus" flag.
For the name field, we introduce (and check) a matching
"default_name_is_bogus" flag. As a bonus, this means you now
get the usual "tell me who you are" advice instead of just a
"no such user" error.
No tests, as this is dependent on configuration outside of
git's control. However, I did confirm that it behaves
sensibly when I delete myself from the local /etc/passwd
(reflogs get written, and commits complain).

If we have to deduce the user's email address and can't come
up with something plausible for the hostname, we simply
write "(none)" or ".(none)" in the hostname.
Later, our strict-check is forced to use strstr to look for
this magic string. This is probably not a problem in
practice, but it's rather ugly. Let's keep an extra flag
that tells us the email is bogus, and check that instead.
We could get away with simply setting the global in
add_domainname(); it only gets called to write into
git_default_email. However, let's make the code a little
more obvious to future readers by actually passing a pointer
to our "bogus" flag down the call-chain.

This function is defined in wrapper.c, but nobody besides
ident.c uses it. And nobody is likely to in the future,
either, as anything that cares about the user's name should
be going through the ident code.
Moving it here is a cleanup of the global namespace, but it
will also enable further cleanups inside ident.c.

And if a branch is named "H", "HE", or "HEA" then the current if clause
erroneously considers it as matching "HEAD" because it only compares
up to the end of the branch name.
Fix that by doing the comparison using strcmp() and only after the
branch name is extracted. This way neither too less nor too many
characters are checked. While at it call strchrnul() to find the end
of the branch name instead of open-coding it.

'git filter-branch' fails complaining about an ambiguous argument, if
a tree-filter renames a path and the new pathname happens to match an
existing object name.
After the tree-filter has been applied, 'git filter-branch' looks for
changed paths by running:
git diff-index -r --name-only --ignore-submodules $commit
which then, because of the lack of disambiguating double-dash, can't
decide whether to treat '$commit' as revision or path and errors out.
Add that disambiguating double-dash after 'git diff-index's revision
argument to make sure that '$commit' is interpreted as a revision.

__git_ps1() doesn't indicate dirty index while on an orphan branch.
To check the dirtiness of the index, __git_ps1() runs 'git diff-index
--cached ... HEAD', which doesn't work on an orphan branch,
because HEAD doesn't point to a valid commit.
Run 'git diff ... --cached' instead, as it does the right thing both
on valid and invalid HEAD, i.e. compares the index to the existing
HEAD in the former case and to the empty tree in the latter. This
fixes the two failing tests added in the first commit of this series.
The dirtiness of the worktree is already checked with 'git diff' and
is displayed correctly even on an orphan branch.

There is only a single test exercising the dirty state indicator on an
orphan branch, and in that test neither the index nor the worktree are
dirty.
Add two failing tests to check the dirty state indicator while either
the index is dirty or while both the index and the worktree are dirty
on an orphan branch, and to show that the dirtiness of the index is
not displayed in these cases (the fourth combination, i.e. clean index
and dirty worktree are impossible on an orphan branch). Update the
existing dirty state indicator on clean orphan branch test to match
the style of the two new tests, most importantly to use 'git checkout
--orphan' instead of cd-ing into a repository that just happens to be
empty and clean.

When passed an ssh:// url, git strips ssh://host from the url but does
not remove leading slashes from the path. So when this test used
ssh://remote//path/to/pwd, the path accessed by our fake SSH is
//path/to/pwd, which cygwin interprets as a UNC path, causing the test
to fail.
We may want to actually fix this in git itself, making it remove extra
slashes from urls before feeding them to transports or helpers, but
that's for another topic as it could cause regressions.
