There is code to create a symbolic reference from p4/HEAD to
p4/master. This allows saying "git show p4" as a shortcut
to "git show p4/master", for example.
But this reference was only created on the second "git p4 sync"
(or first sync after a clone). Make it work on the initial
clone or sync.

Add failing tests to document behavior when there are multiple p4
branches, as created using the --branch option. In particular:
Using clone --branch populates the specified branch correctly, but
dies with an error when trying to checkout master.
Calling sync without a master branch dies with an error looking for
master. When there are two or more branches, a sync does
nothing due to branch detection code, but that is expected.
Using sync --branch to try to update just a particular branch
updates no branch, but appears to succeed.

A tar archive created by "git archive" recorded a directory in a

When "git clone --separate-git-dir=$over_there" is interrupted, it

The behaviour visible to the end users was confusing, when they
attempt to kill a process spawned in the editor that was in turn
launched by Git with SIGINT (or SIGQUIT), as Git would catch that
signal and die. We ignore these signals now.

When attempting to read the XDG-style $HOME/.config/git/config and
finding that $HOME/.config/git is a file, we gave a wrong error

The attribute mechanism didn't allow limiting attributes to be
applied to only a single directory itself with "path/" like the
exclude mechanism does.

Add directory pattern matching to attributes
"git fetch --mirror" and fetch that uses other forms of refspec with
wildcard used to attempt to update a symbolic ref that match the
wildcard on the receiving end, which made little sense (the real ref
that is pointed at by the symbolic ref would be updated anyway).
Symbolic refs no longer are affected by such a fetch.
* jc/fetch-ignore-symref:
fetch: ignore wildcarded refspecs that update local symbolic refs
The way "git svn" asked for password using SSH_ASKPASS and
GIT_ASKPASS was not in line with the rest of the system.

perl/Git.pm: Honor SSH_ASKPASS as fallback if GIT_ASKPASS is not set

When make is run, the python scripts are created from *.py files that
are changed to use the python given by PYTHON_PATH. And PYTHON_PATH
is set by default to /usr/bin/python on Linux.
However, next time make is run with a different value in PYTHON_PATH,
we failed to regenerate these scripts.

The options in git-fast-import(1) are not currently arranged in a
logical order, which has caused the '--done' options to be documented
twice (commit 3266de10).

The test fails for me on NetBSD 6.0.1 and reports:
ok 1 - ref name '' is invalid
ok 2 - ref name '/' is invalid
ok 3 - ref name '/' is invalid with options --allow-onelevel
ok 4 - ref name '/' is invalid with options --normalize
error: bug in the test script: not 2 or 3 parameters to test-expect-success
The alleged bug is in this line:
invalid_ref NOT_MINGW '/' '--allow-onelevel --normalize'
invalid_ref() constructs a test case description using its last argument,
but the shell seems to split it up into two pieces if it contains a
space. Minimal test case:
# on NetBSD with /bin/sh
$ a() { echo $#-$1-$2; }
$ t="x"; a "${t:+$t}"
1-x-
$ t="x y"; a "${t:+$t}"
2-x-y
$ t="x y"; a "${t:+x y}"
1-x y-
# and with bash
$ t="x y"; a "${t:+$t}"
1-x y-
$ t="x y"; a "${t:+x y}"
1-x y-
This may be a bug in the shell, but here's a simple workaround: Construct
the description string first and store it in a variable, and then use
that to call test_expect_success().
