Some people argue that these were silly from the beginning (see
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/285590/focus=285601
for example), but we have to support them for compatibility.
That doesn't mean we have to show them in the documentation. These
were already left out of the main list, but a reference in the main
manpage was left, so remove that.
Also add a note to discourage their use if anybody goes looking for them
in the source code.

Hotfix for a test breakage made between 2.7 and 'master'.
* nd/clear-gitenv-upon-use-of-alias:
t0001: fix GIT_* environment variable check under --valgrind
Simplify the two callback functions that are triggered when the
child process terminates to avoid misuse of the child-process
structure that has already been cleaned up.
* sb/submodule-parallel-fetch:
run-command: do not pass child process data into callbacks
* nd/i18n-2.8.0:
trailer.c: mark strings for translation
ref-filter.c: mark strings for translation
builtin/clone.c: mark strings for translation
builtin/checkout.c: mark strings for translation
Out-of-maintenance gcc on OSX 10.6 fails to compile the code in
'master'; work it around by using clang by default on the platform.
* tb/avoid-gcc-on-darwin-10-6:
config.mak.uname: use clang for Mac OS X 10.6
The code to read the pack data using the offsets stored in the pack
idx file has been made more carefully check the validity of the
data in the idx.
* jk/pack-idx-corruption-safety:
sha1_file.c: mark strings for translation
use_pack: handle signed off_t overflow
nth_packed_object_offset: bounds-check extended offset
t5313: test bounds-checks of corrupted/malicious pack/idx files
The way the test scripts configure the Apache web server has been
updated to work also for Apache 2.4 running on RedHat derived
distros.
* mg/httpd-tests-update-for-apache-2.4:
t/lib-httpd: load mod_unixd
t5510 carefully keeps the cwd at the test root by using either subshells
or explicit cd'ing back to the root. Use a subshell for the last
subtest, too.

Commit d53c2c6 (mingw: fix t9700's assumption about
directory separators, 2016-01-27) uses perl's "/r" regex
modifier to do a non-destructive replacement on a string,
leaving the original unmodified and returning the result.
This feature was introduced in perl 5.14, but systems with
older perl are still common (e.g., CentOS 6.5 still has perl
5.10). Let's work around it by providing a helper function
that does the same thing using older syntax.
While we're at it, let's switch to using an alternate regex
separator, which is slightly more readable.

When a test case is run without --valgrind, the wrap-for-bin.sh
helper script inserts the environment variable GIT_TEXTDOMAINDIR, but
when run with --valgrind, the variable is missing. A recently
introduced test case expects the presence of the variable, though, and
fails under --valgrind.
Rewrite the test case to strip conditially defined environment variables
from both expected and actual output.

The wording is introduced in c3f0baaca (Documentation: sync git.txt

since then, capture the modern usage by being more generic about the

The pthread_exit() function is not expected to return. Ever. On Windows,
we call ExitThread() whose documentation claims: "Ends the calling
thread", i.e. there is no condition in which this function simply
returns: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/ms682659
While at it, fix the return type to be void, as per
http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/functions/pthread_exit.html

The expected way to pass data into the callback is to pass them via
the customizable callback pointer. The error reporting in
default_{start_failure, task_finished} is not user friendly enough, that
we want to encourage using the child data for such purposes.
Furthermore the struct child data is cleaned by the run-command API,
before we access them in the callbacks, leading to use-after-free
situations.

Curl and its families honor several proxy related environment variables:
* http_proxy and https_proxy define proxy for http/https connections.
* no_proxy (a comma separated hosts) defines hosts bypass the proxy.
This command will bypass the bad-proxy and connect to the host directly:
no_proxy=* https_proxy=http://bad-proxy/ \
curl -sk https://google.com/
Before commit 372370f (http: use credential API to handle proxy auth...),
Environment variable "no_proxy" will take effect if the config variable
"http.proxy" is not set. So the following comamnd won't fail if not
behind a firewall.
no_proxy=* https_proxy=http://bad-proxy/ \
git ls-remote https://github.com/git/git
But commit 372370f not only read git config variable "http.proxy", but
also read "http_proxy" and "https_proxy" environment variables, and set
the curl option using:
curl_easy_setopt(result, CURLOPT_PROXY, proxy_auth.host);
This caused "no_proxy" environment variable not working any more.
Set extra curl option "CURLOPT_NOPROXY" will fix this issue.

Commit 50a6c8e (use st_add and st_mult for allocation size
computation, 2016-02-22) fixed up many xmalloc call-sites
including ones in compat/mingw.c.
But I screwed up one of them, which was half-converted to
ALLOC_ARRAY, using a very early prototype of the function.
And I never caught it because I don't build on Windows.

Gcc under Mac OX 10.6 throws an internal compiler error:
CC combine-diff.o
combine-diff.c: In function ‘diff_tree_combined’:
combine-diff.c:1391: internal compiler error: Segmentation fault
while attempting to build Git at 5b442c4f (tree-diff: catch integer
overflow in combine_diff_path allocation, 2016-02-19).
As clang that ships with the version does not have the same bug,
make Git compile under Mac OS X 10.6 by using clang instead of gcc
to work this around, as it is unlikely that we will see fixed GCC
on that platform.
Later versions of Mac OSX/Xcode only provide clang, and gcc is a
wrapper to it.
