"git log -2master" is a common typo that shows two commits starting
from whichever random branch that is not 'master' that happens to
be checked out currently.

Reworded the error message given upon a failure to open an existing
loose object file due to e.g. permission issues; it was reported as
the object being corrupt, but that is not quite true.

open_sha1_file: report "most interesting" errno
Tools that read diagnostic output in our standard error stream do
not want to see terminal control sequence (e.g. erase-to-eol).
Detect them by checking if the standard error stream is connected
to a tty.
* mn/sideband-no-ansi:
sideband.c: do not use ANSI control sequence on non-terminal
We used to unconditionally disable the pager in the pager process
we spawn to feed out output, but that prevented people who want to
run "less" within "less" from doing so.
* je/pager-do-not-recurse:
pager: do allow spawning pager recursively
It is not C. The code would break under mksh when 'pull.ff' is set:
$ git pull

This mistyped command line simply ignores "master" and ends up
showing two commits from the current HEAD:
$ git log -2master
because we feed "2master" to atoi() without making sure that the
whole string is parsed as an integer.
Use the strtol_i() helper function instead.

Running "git update-index --cacheinfo" without any further
arguments results in a segfault rather than an error
message. Commit ec160ae (update-index: teach --cacheinfo a
new syntax "mode,sha1,path", 2014-03-23) added code to
examine the format of the argument, but forgot to handle the
NULL case.
Returning an error from the parser is enough, since we then
treat it as an old-style "--cacheinfo <mode> <sha1> <path>",
and complain that we have less than 3 arguments to read.

Diagnostic messages received on the sideband #2 from the server side
are sent to the standard error with ANSI terminal control sequence
"\033[K" that erases to the end of line appended at the end of each
line.
However, some programs (e.g. GitExtensions for Windows) read and
interpret and/or show the message without understanding the terminal
control sequences, resulting them to be shown to their end users.
To help these programs, squelch the control sequence when the
standard error stream is not being sent to a tty.
NOTE: I considered to cover the case that a pager has already been
started. But decided that is probably not worth worrying about here,
though, as we shouldn't be using a pager for commands that do network
communications (and if we do, omitting the magic line-clearing signal
is probably a sane thing to do).

These were originally removed by 0232852 (t5537: move
http tests out to t5539, 2014-02-13). However, they were
accidentally re-added in 1ddb4d7 (Merge branch
'nd/upload-pack-shallow', 2014-03-21).
This looks like an error in manual conflict resolution.
Here's what happened:
1. v1.9.0 shipped with the http tests in t5537.
2. We realized that this caused problems, and built
0232852 on top to move the tests to their own file.
This fix made it into v1.9.1.
3. We later had another fix in nd/upload-pack-shallow that
also touched t5537. It was built directly on v1.9.0.
When we merged nd/upload-pack-shallow to master, we got a
conflict; it was built on a version with the http tests, but
we had since removed them. The correct resolution was to
drop the http tests and keep the new ones, but instead we
kept everything.

This reverts commit d508e4a8e2,
reversing changes made to e42552135a.
The author of the original topic says he broke the upcoming 2.0
release with something that relates to "synchronization crash
regression" while refusing to give further specifics, so this would
unfortunately be the safest option for the upcoming release.

Not all shells subject the prompt string to parameter expansion. Test
whether the shell will expand the value of PS1, and use the result to
control whether raw ref names are included directly in PS1.
This fixes a regression introduced in commit 8976500 ("git-prompt.sh:
don't put unsanitized branch names in $PS1"): zsh does not expand PS1
by default, but that commit assumed it did. The bug resulted in
prompts containing the literal string '${__git_ps1_branch_name}'
instead of the actual branch name.

Since git 2.0.0 starting git gui in a submodule using a gitfile fails with
the following error:
No working directory ../../../<path>
couldn't change working directory
to "../../../<path>": no such file or
directory
This is because "git rev-parse --show-toplevel" is only run when git gui
sees a git version of at least 1.7.0 (which is the version in which the
--show-toplevel option was introduced). But "package vsatisfies" returns
false when the major version changes, which is not what we want here.
Fix that for both places where the git version is checked using vsatisfies
by appending a '-' to the version number. This tells vsatisfies that a
change of the major version is not considered to be a problem, as long as
the new major version is larger. This is done for both the place that
caused the reported bug and another spot where the git version is tested
for another feature.

Older versions of Git before v1.7.10 did not DWIM
$ git pull $URL for-linus
to the tag "tags/for-linus" and the users were required to say
$ git pull $URL tags/for-linus
instead. Because newer versions of Git works either way,
request-pull used to show tags/for-linus when asked
$ git request-pull origin/master $URL for-linus
The recent updates broke this and in the output we see "for-linus"
without the "tags/" prefix.
As v1.7.10 is more than 2 years old, this should matter very little
in practice, but resurrecting it is very simple.

When we try to open a loose object file, we first attempt to
open in the local object database, and then try any
alternates. This means that the errno value when we return
will be from the last place we looked (and due to the way
the code is structured, simply ENOENT if we do not have have
any alternates).
This can cause confusing error messages, as read_sha1_file
checks for ENOENT when reporting a missing object. If errno
is something else, we report that. If it is ENOENT, but
has_loose_object reports that we have it, then we claim the
object is corrupted. For example:
$ chmod 0 .git/objects/??/*
$ git rev-list --all
fatal: loose object b2d6fab18b92d49eac46dc3c5a0bcafabda20131 (stored in .git/objects/b2/d6fab18b92d49eac46dc3c5a0bcafabda20131) is corrupt
This patch instead keeps track of the "most interesting"
errno we receive during our search. We consider ENOENT to be
the least interesting of all, and otherwise report the first
error found (so problems in the object database take
precedence over ones in alternates). Here it is with this
patch:
$ git rev-list --all
fatal: failed to read object b2d6fab18b92d49eac46dc3c5a0bcafabda20131: Permission denied

instead:

The stray "+" has been there ever since the example was added in
v1.8.3-rc0~210^2 (shell: new no-interactive-login command to print a
custom message, 2013-03-09). The "+" sign between paragraphs is
needed in asciidoc to attach extra paragraphs to a list item but here
it is not needed and ends up rendered as a literal "+". Remove it.
