apply: avoid out-of-bounds access in fuzzy_matchlines()
Doc update around use of "format-patch --subject-prefix" etc.

Replace Free Software Foundation address in license notices
We used to add an empty alternate object database to the system
that does not help anything; it has been corrected.
* jk/info-alternates-fix:
link_alt_odb_entries: make empty input a noop
Some error messages did not quote filenames shown in it, which have
been fixed.
* sr/wrapper-quote-filenames:
wrapper.c: consistently quote filenames in error messages
"git rebase -i" recently started misbehaving when a submodule that
is configured with 'submodule.<name>.ignore' is dirty; this has
been corrected.
* bw/rebase-i-ignored-submodule-fix:
wt-status: actually ignore submodules when requested
d9bd4cbb9c (config: flip return value of store_write_*()) made
write_section() follow the convention of write(2) to return -1 on error
and the number of written bytes on success. 3b48045c6c (Merge branch
'sd/branch-copy') changed it back to returning 0 on error and 1 on
success, but left its callers still checking for negative values.
Let write_section() follow the convention of write(2) again to meet the
expectations of its callers.

MinGW updates.
* js/mingw-redirect-std-handles:
mingw: document the standard handle redirection
mingw: optionally redirect stderr/stdout via the same handle
mingw: add experimental feature to redirect standard handles
The credential helper for libsecret (in contrib/) has been improved
to allow possibly prompting the end user to unlock secrets that are
currently locked (otherwise the secrets may not be loaded).
* dk/libsecret-unlock-to-load-fix:
credential-libsecret: unlock locked secrets
Correct start-up sequence so that a repository could be placed
immediately under the root directory again (which was broken at
around Git 2.13).
* js/early-config:
setup: avoid double slashes when looking for HEAD
After an error from lstat(), diff_populate_filespec() function
sometimes still went ahead and used invalid data in struct stat,
which has been fixed.
* ao/diff-populate-filespec-lstat-errorpath-fix:
diff: fix lstat() error handling in diff_populate_filespec()
Description of blame.{showroot,blankboundary,showemail,date}
configuration variables have been added to "git config --help".
* sb/blame-config-doc:
config: document blame configuration
"git check-ref-format --branch @{-1}" bit a "BUG()" when run
outside a repository for obvious reasons; clarify the documentation
and make sure we do not even try to expand the at-mark magic in
such a case, but still call the validation logic for branch names.
* jc/check-ref-format-oor:
check-ref-format doc: --branch validates and expands <branch>
check-ref-format --branch: strip refs/heads/ using skip_prefix
check-ref-format --branch: do not expand @{...} outside repository
A recent regression in "git rebase -i" that broke execution of git
commands from subdirectories via "exec" insn has been fixed.
* jk/rebase-i-exec-gitdir-fix:
sequencer: pass absolute GIT_DIR to exec commands
A broken access to object databases in recent update to "git grep
--recurse-submodules" has been fixed.
* bw/grep-recurse-submodules:
grep: take the read-lock when adding a submodule
"git status --ignored -u" did not stop at a working tree of a
separate project that is embedded in an ignored directory and
listed files in that other project, instead of just showing the
directory itself as ignored.
* js/submodule-in-excluded:
status: do not get confused by submodules in excluded directories
"git commit", after making a commit, did not check for errors when
asking on what branch it made the commit, which has been correted.
* ao/check-resolve-ref-unsafe-result:
commit: check result of resolve_ref_unsafe
Some codepaths did not check for errors when asking what branch the
HEAD points at, which have been fixed.
* jk/misc-resolve-ref-unsafe-fixes:
worktree: handle broken symrefs in find_shared_symref()
log: handle broken HEAD in decoration check
remote: handle broken symrefs
test-ref-store: avoid passing NULL to printf
Instead of using custom line comparison and hashing functions to
implement "moved lines" coloring in the diff output, use the pair
of these functions from lower-layer xdiff/ code.
* sb/diff-color-moved-use-xdl-recmatch:
diff.c: get rid of duplicate implementation
xdiff-interface: export comparing and hashing strings
The experimental "color moved lines differently in diff output"
feature was buggy around "ignore whitespace changes" edges, whihch
has been corrected.
* jk/diff-color-moved-fix:
diff: handle NULs in get_string_hash()
diff: fix whitespace-skipping with --color-moved
t4015: test the output of "diff --color-moved -b"
t4015: check "negative" case for "-w --color-moved"
t4015: refactor --color-moved whitespace test
"auto" as a value for the columnar output configuration ought to
judge "is the output consumed by humans?" with the same criteria as
"auto" for coloured output configuration, i.e. either the standard
output stream is going to tty, or a pager is in use. We forgot the
latter, which has been fixed.
* kd/auto-col-with-pager-fix:
column: do not include pager.c
column: show auto columns when pager is active
TravisCI build updates.
* sg/travis-fixes:
travis-ci: don't build Git for the static analysis job
travis-ci: fix running P4 and Git LFS tests in Linux build jobs
If an empty string is passed to link_alt_odb_entries(), our
loop finds no entries and we link nothing. But we still do
some preparatory work to normalize the object directory
path, even though we'll never look at the result. This
triggers in basically every git process, since we feed the
usually-empty ALTERNATE_DB_ENVIRONMENT to the function.
Let's detect early that there's nothing to do and return.
While we're at it, let's treat NULL the same as an empty
string as a favor to our callers. That saves
prepare_alt_odb() from having to cover this case.

If you have a pcre1 library which is compiled with JIT enabled then
PCRE_STUDY_JIT_COMPILE will be defined whether or not the
NO_LIBPCRE1_JIT configuration is set.
This means that we enable JIT functionality when calling pcre_study
even if NO_LIBPCRE1_JIT has been explicitly set and we just use plain
pcre_exec later.
Fix this by using own macro (GIT_PCRE_STUDY_JIT_COMPILE) which we set to
PCRE_STUDY_JIT_COMPILE only if NO_LIBPCRE1_JIT is not set and define to
0 otherwise, as before.

The test for '--abbrev' in t4201-shortlog.sh assumes that the commits
generated in the test can always be uniquely abbreviated to 5 hex digits
but this is not always the case. If you were unlucky and happened to run
the test at (say) Thu Jun 22 03:04:49 2017 +0000, you would find that
the first commit generated would collide with a tree object created
later in the same test.
This can be simulated in the version of t4201-shortlog.sh prior to this
commit by setting GIT_COMMITTER_DATE and GIT_AUTHOR_DATE to 1498100689
after sourcing test-lib.sh.
Change the test to test --abbrev=35 instead of --abbrev=5 to almost
completely avoid the possibility of a partial collision and add a call
to test_tick in the setup to make the test repeatable (the latter alone
is sufficient to make it robust enough).

fuzzy_matchlines() uses a pointers to the first and last characters of
two lines to keep track while matching them. This makes it impossible
to deal with empty strings. It accesses characters before the start of
empty lines. It can also access characters after the end when checking
for trailing whitespace in the main loop.
Avoid that by using pointers to the first character and the one *after*
the last one. This is well-defined as long as the latter is not
dereferenced. Basically rewrite the function based on that premise; it
becomes much simpler as a result. There is no need to check for
leading whitespace outside of the main loop anymore.

The examples and common practice for adding markers such as "RFC" or
"v2" to the subject of patch emails is to have them within the same
brackets as the "PATCH" text, not after the closing bracket. Further,
the practice of `git format-patch` and the like, as well as what appears
to be the more common pratice on the mailing list, is to use "[RFC
PATCH]", not "[PATCH/RFC]".
Update the SubmittingPatches article to match and to reference the
`format-patch` helper arguments, and also make some minor text
clarifications in the area.
