add global --literal-pathspecs option Git takes pathspec arguments in many places to limit the scope of an operation. These pathspecs are treated not as literal paths, but as glob patterns that can be fed to fnmatch. When a user is giving a specific pattern, this is a nice feature. However, when programatically providing pathspecs, it can be a nuisance. For example, to find the latest revision which modified "$foo", one can use "git rev-list -- $foo". But if "$foo" contains glob characters (e.g., "f*"), it will erroneously match more entries than desired. The caller needs to quote the characters in $foo, and even then, the results may not be exactly the same as with a literal pathspec. For instance, the depth checks in match_pathspec_depth do not kick in if we match via fnmatch. This patch introduces a global command-line option (i.e., one for "git" itself, not for specific commands) to turn this behavior off. It also has a matching environment variable, which can make it easier if you are a script or porcelain interface that is going to issue many such commands. This option cannot turn off globbing for particular pathspecs. That could eventually be done with a ":(noglob)" magic pathspec prefix. However, that level of granularity is more cumbersome to use for many cases, and doing ":(noglob)" right would mean converting the whole codebase to use "struct pathspec", as the usual "const char **pathspec" cannot represent extra per-item flags.
