b4479f0 (add -i, send-email, svn, p4, etc: use "git var GIT_EDITOR",
2009-10-30) introduced the use of "git var GIT_EDITOR" to obtain the
preferred editor program, instead of reading environment variables
themselves.
However, "git var GIT_EDITOR" run without a tty (think "cron job") would
give a fatal error "Terminal is dumb, but EDITOR unset". This is not a
problem for add-i, svn, p4 and callers of git_editor() defined in
git-sh-setup, as all of these call it just before launching the editor.
At that point, we know the caller wants to edit.
But send-email ran this near the beginning of the program, even if it is
not going to use any editor (e.g. run without --compose). Fix this by
calling the command only when we edit a file.

For git-rebase.sh, --no-ff is a synonym for --force-rebase.
For git-rebase--interactive.sh, --no-ff cherry-picks all the commits in
the rebased branch, instead of fast-forwarding over any unchanged commits.
--no-ff offers an alternative way to deal with reverted merges. Instead of
"reverting the revert" you can use "rebase --no-ff" to recreate the branch
with entirely new commits (they're new because at the very least the
committer time is different). This obviates the need to revert the
reversion, as you can re-merge the new topic branch directly. Added an
addendum to revert-a-faulty-merge.txt describing the situation and how to
use --no-ff to handle it.

If stdout has already been closed by the CGI and die() gets called,
the CGI will fail to write the "Status: 500 Internal Server Error" to
the pipe, which results in die() being called again (via safe_write).
This goes on in an infinite loop until the stack overflows and the
process is killed by SIGSEGV.
Instead set a flag on the first die() invocation and if we came back to
the handler, just die silently, as it only means we failed to report the
failure---we cannot report anything anyway in such a case. This way
failures to write the error messages to the stdout pipe do not result in
an infinite loop.
We also now report on the death to stderr before we report to stdout,
to increase the chances that the cause of the die() invocation will
appear in the server's error log.

git merge-recursive (and hence git merge) will present conflict hunks
in output something like what ‘diff3 -m’ produces if the
merge.conflictstyle configuration option is set to diff3.
There is a small difference from diff3: diff3 -m includes a label
for the merge base on the ||||||| line.
Tools familiar with the format and humans unfamiliar with the format
both can benefit from such a label. So mark the start of the text
from the merge bases with the heading "||||||| merged common
ancestors".
It would be nicer to use a more informative label. Perhaps someone
will provide one some day.
git rerere does not have trouble parsing the new output, and its

When reverting a commit, the commit being merged is not the commit
to revert itself but its parent. Add “parent of” to the conflict
hunk label to make this more clear.
The conflict hunk labels are all pieces of a single string written in
the new get_message() function. Avoid some complication by using
mempcpy to advance a pointer as the result is written.
Also free the corresponding temporary buffer (it was leaked before).
This is not important because it is a small one-time allocation. It
would become a memory leak if unnoticed when libifying revert.
This patch uses calls to strlen() instead of integer constants in some
places. GCC will compute the length at compile time; I am not sure
about other compilers, but this is not performance-critical anyway.

Commands using the merge_trees() machinery will present conflict hunks
in output something like what ‘diff3 -m’ produces if the
merge.conflictstyle configuration option is set to diff3. The output
lacks the name of the merge base on the ||||||| line of the output,
and tools can misparse the conflict hunks without it. Add a new
o->ancestor parameter to merge_trees() for use as a label for the
ancestor in conflict hunks.
If o->ancestor is NULL, the output format is as before. All callers
pass NULL for now.
If o->ancestor is non-NULL and both branches renamed the base file
to the same name, that name is included in the conflict hunk labels.
Even if o->ancestor is NULL I think this would be a good change, but
this patch only does it in the non-NULL case to ensure the output
format does not change where it might matter.
