Default GIT_COMMITTER_NAME to login name in recieve-pack.

Now that reflogs are enabled by default in (what we guessed to be)
non-bare Git repositories this may cause problems for some users
who don't have their full name in the gecos field and who don't

Align section headers of 'git status' to new 'git add'.
Now that 'git add' is considered a first-class UI for 'update-index'
and that the 'git add' documentation states "Even modified files
must be added to the set of changes about to be committed" we should
make the output of 'git status' align with that documentation and
common usage.
So now we see a status output such as:
# Added but not yet committed:
# (will commit)
#
# new file: x
#
# Changed but not added:
# (use "git add file1 file2" to include for commit)
#
# modified: x
#
# Untracked files:
# (use "git add" on files to include for commit)

# y
which just reads better in the context of using 'git add' to
manipulate a commit (and not a checkin, whatever the heck that is).

Suggest use of "git add file1 file2" when there is nothing to commit.
If a user modifies files and runs 'git commit' (without the very
useful -a option) and they have not yet updated the index they
are probably coming from another SCM-like tool which would perform
the same as 'git commit -a' in this case. Showing the user their
current status and a final line of "nothing to commit" is not very
reassuring, as the user might believe that Git did not recognize
their files were modified.
Instead we can suggest as part of the 'nothing to commit' message
that the user invoke 'git add' to add files to their next commit.

Enable reflogs by default in any repository with a working directory.
New and experienced Git users alike are finding out too late that
they forgot to enable reflogs in the current repository, and cannot
use the information stored within it to recover from an incorrectly
entered command such as `git reset --hard HEAD^^^` when they really
meant HEAD^^ (aka HEAD~2).
So enable reflogs by default in all future versions of Git, unless
the user specifically disables it with:
[core]
logAllRefUpdates = false
in their .git/config or ~/.gitconfig.
We only enable reflogs in repositories that have a working directory
associated with them, as shared/bare repositories do not have
an easy means to prune away old log entries, or may fail logging
entirely if the user's gecos information is not valid during a push.
This heuristic was suggested on the mailing list by Junio.
Documentation was also updated to indicate the new default behavior.
We probably should start to teach usuing the reflog to recover
from mistakes in some of the tutorial material, as new users are
likely to make a few along the way and will feel better knowing
they can recover from them quickly and easily, without fsck-objects'

As most users at that time were rather technical UNIXy folk the
message "defaulting to local storage area" made sense to some and
seemed reasonable.
But it doesn't really convey any meaning to the new Git user,
as they don't know what a 'local storage area is' nor do they
know enough about Git to care. It also really doesn't tell the
experienced Git user a whole lot about the command they just ran,
especially if they might be reinitializing an existing repository
(e.g. to update hooks).

"Reinitialized existing"), what type of repository ("" or "shared"),

Avoid accessing a slow working copy during diffcore operations.
The Cygwin folks have done a fine job at creating a POSIX layer
on Windows That Just Works(tm). However it comes with a penalty;
accessing files in the working tree by way of stat/open/mmap can
be slower for diffcore than inflating the data from a blob which
is stored in a packfile.
This performance problem is especially an issue in merge-recursive
when dealing with nearly 7000 added files, as we are loading
each file's content from the working directory to perform rename
detection. I have literally seen (and sadly watched) paint dry in
less time than it takes for merge-recursive to finish such a merge.
On the other hand this very same merge runs very fast on Solaris.
If Git is compiled with NO_FAST_WORKING_DIRECTORY set then we will
avoid looking at the working directory when the blob in question
is available within a packfile and the caller doesn't need the data
unpacked into a temporary file.
We don't use loose objects as they have the same open/mmap/close
costs as the working directory file access, but have the additional
CPU overhead of needing to inflate the content before use. So it
is still faster to use the working tree file over the loose object.
If the caller needs the file data unpacked into a temporary file
its likely because they are going to call an external diff program,
passing the file as a parameter. In this case reusing the working
tree file will be faster as we don't need to inflate the data and
write it out to a temporary file.
The NO_FAST_WORKING_DIRECTORY feature is enabled by default on
Cygwin, as that is the platform which currently appears to benefit
the most from this option.

Bypass expensive content comparsion during rename detection.
When comparing file contents during the second loop through a rename

if both source and destination files have valid SHA1 values. This
improves performance by avoiding either an expensive open/mmap to
read the working tree copy, or an expensive inflate of a blob object.
Unfortunately we still have to at least initialize the sizes of the

Allow subcommand.color and color.subcommand color configuration
While adding colour to the branch command it was pointed out that a
config option like "branch.color" conflicts with the pre-existing
"branch.something" namespace used for specifying default merge urls and
branches. The suggested solution was to flip the order of the
components to "color.branch", which I did for colourising branch.
This patch does the same thing for
- git-log (color.diff)
- git-status (color.status)
- git-diff (color.diff)
- pager (color.pager)
I haven't removed the old config options; but they should probably be
deprecated and eventually removed to prevent future namespace
collisions. I've done this deprecation by changing the documentation
for the config file to match the new names; and adding the "color.XXX"
options to contrib/completion/git-completion.bash.
Unfortunately git-svn reads "diff.color" and "pager.color"; which I
don't like to change unilaterally.

Make sure the empty tree exists when needed in merge-recursive.
There are some baseless merge cases where git-merge-recursive will
try to compare one of the branches against the empty tree. However
most projects won't have the empty tree object in their object database
as Git does not normally create empty tree objects. If the empty tree
object is missing then the merge process will die, as it cannot load the
object from the database. The error message may make the user think that
their database is corrupt when its actually not.
So instead we should just create the empty tree object whenever it is
needed. If the object already exists as a loose object then no harm
done. Otherwise that loose object will be pruned away later by either
git-prune or git-prune-packed.

change the unpack limit treshold to a saner value
Currently the treshold is 5000. The likelihood of this value to ever be
crossed for a single push is really small making it not really useful.
The optimal treshold for a pure space saving on a filesystem with 4kb
blocks is 3. However this is likely to create many small packs
concentrating a large number of files in a single directory compared to
the same objects which are spread over 256 directories when loose. This
means we would need 512 objects per pack on average to approximagte the
same directory cost (a pack has 2 files because of the index).
But 512 is a really high value just like 5000 since most pushes are
unlikely to have that many objects. So let's try with a value of 100
which should have a good balance between small pushes going to be
exploded into loose objects and large pushes kept as whole packs.

Explicitly add the default "git pull" behaviour to .git/config on clone
Without any specification in the .git/config file, git-pull will execute
"git-pull origin"; which in turn defaults to pull from the first "pull"
definition for the remote, "origin".
This is a difficult set of defaults to track for a new user, and it's
difficult to see what tells git to do this (especially when it is
actually hard-coded behaviour). To ameliorate this slightly, this patch
explicitly specifies the default behaviour during a clone using the
"branch" section of the config.
For example, a clone of a typical repository would create a .git/config
containing:
[remote "origin"]
url = proto://host/repo.git
fetch = refs/heads/master:refs/remotes/origin/master
[branch "master"]
remote = origin
merge = refs/heads/master

functionality of git-pull, but that functionality is now explicitly
documented.

git-reset to remove "$GIT_DIR/MERGE_MSG"
An earlier commit
a9cb3c6e changed git-commit to use the
contents of MERGE_MSG even when we do not have MERGE_HEAD (the
rationale is in its log message).
However, the change tricks the following sequence to include a
merge message in a completely unrelated commit:
$ git pull somewhere
: oops, the conflicts are too much. forget it.
$ git reset --hard
: work work work
$ git commit
To fix this confusion, this patch makes "git reset" to remove
the leftover MERGE_MSG that was prepared when the user abandoned
the merge.
