2b1e17237b gitweb: Fix handling of fractional timezones in parse_date
Fractional timezones, like -0330 (NST used in Canada) or +0430
(Afghanistan, Iran DST), were not handled properly in parse_date; this
means values such as 'minute_local' and 'iso-tz' were not generated
correctly.

This was caused by two mistakes:

* sign of timezone was applied only to hour part of offset, and not
  as it should be also to minutes part (this affected only negative
  fractional timezones).

* 'int $h + $m/60' is 'int($h + $m/60)' and not 'int($h) + $m/60',
  so fractional part was discarded altogether ($h is hours, $m is
  minutes, which is always less than 60).

Note that positive fractional timezones +0430, +0530 and +1030 can be
found as authortime in git.git repository itself.

For example http://repo.or.cz/w/git.git/commit/88d50e7 had authortime
of "Fri, 8 Jan 2010 18:48:07 +0000 (23:48 +0530)", which is not marked
with 'atnight', when "git show 88d50e7" gives correct author date of
"Sat Jan 9 00:18:07 2010 +0530".

b5f306fbe1 git-am.txt: advertise 'git am --abort' instead of 'rm .git/rebase-apply'
'git am --abort' is around for quite a long time now, and users should
normally not poke around inside the .git directory, yet the
documentation of 'git am' still recommends the following:

  ... if you decide to start over from scratch,
  run `rm -f -r .git/rebase-apply` ...

Suggest 'git am --abort' instead.

It's not quite the same as the original, because 'git am --abort' will
restore the original branch, while simply removing '.git/rebase-apply'
won't, but that's rather a thinko in the original wording, because
that won't actually "start over _from scratch_".

c4e4644e17 bisect: visualize with git-log if gitk is unavailable
If gitk is not available in the PATH, bisect ends up
exiting with the shell's 127 error code, confusing the git
wrapper into thinking that bisect is not a git command.

We already fallback to git-log if there doesn't seem to be a
graphical display available. We should do the same if gitk
is not available in our PATH at all. This not only fixes the
ugly error message, but is a much more sensible default than
failing to show the user anything.

c3786c8472 Work around broken ln on solaris as used in t8006
The test setup in t8006-blame-textconv.sh uses "ln -sf" to
overwrite an existing symlink.  Unfortunately, both /usr/bin/ln
and /usr/xpg4/bin/ln on solaris 9 don't properly handle -f and -s
used at the same time.  This caused the test setup and subsequent
checks to fail.

Instead, remove the symlink and then create a new one in the
setup code.

The upstream Solaris bug (fixed in 10, but not 9) is documented
here:

6affdbe677 gitweb: highlight: replace tabs with spaces
Consider the following code fragment:

        /*
         * test
         */

vim ":set list" mode shows that the first character on each line is a
tab:

^I/*$
^I * test$
^I */$

By default, the "highlight" program will retain the tabs in the HTML
output:

$ highlight --fragment --syntax c test.c
        <span class="hl com">/*</span>
<span class="hl com">    * test</span>
<span class="hl com">    */</span>

vim list mode:

^I<span class="hl com">/*</span>$
<span class="hl com">^I * test</span>$
<span class="hl com">^I */</span>$

In gitweb, this winds up looking something like:

   1         /*
   2     * test
   3     */

I tried both Firefox and Opera and saw the same behavior.

The desired output is:

   1         /*
   2          * test
   3          */

This can be accomplished by specifying "--replace-tabs=8" on the
highlight command line.

b406a2d3e3 valgrind: ignore SSE-based strlen invalid reads
Some versions of strlen use SSE to speed up the calculation and load 4
bytes at a time, even if it means reading past the end of the
allocated memory. This read is safe and when the strlen function is
inlined, it is not replaced by valgrind, which reports a
false-possitive.

Tell valgrind to ignore this particular error, as the read is, in
fact, safe. Current upstream-released version 3.6.1 is affected. Some
distributions have this fixed in their latest versions.

808a95dcad diff --submodule: split into bite-sized pieces
Introduce two functions:

 - prepare_submodule_summary prepares the revision walker
   to list changes in a submodule.  That is, it:

   * finds merge bases between the commits pointed to this
     path from before ("left") and after ("right") the change;
   * checks whether this is a fast-forward or fast-backward;
   * prepares a revision walk to list commits in the symmetric
     difference between the commits at each endpoint.

   It returns nonzero on error.

 - print_submodule_summary runs the revision walk and saves
   the result to a strbuf in --left-right format.

The goal is just readability.  No functional change intended.

9cba13ca5d standardize brace placement in struct definitions
In a struct definitions, unlike functions, the prevailing style is for
the opening brace to go on the same line as the struct name, like so:

 struct foo {
	int bar;
	char *baz;
 };

Indeed, grepping for 'struct [a-z_]* {$' yields about 5 times as many
matches as 'struct [a-z_]*$'.

Most importantly, "log" does not default to "--cc" (it defaults to

format.  Only "diff" (during merge and three-blob comparison) and
"show" use --cc as the default.
