Four new configuration variables {author,committer}.{name,email}

These tabs happen to appear in columns where they don't stand out too
much, so the diff here is non-obvious. Some of these are rendered
differently by AsciiDoc and Asciidoctor (although the difference might
be invisible!), which is how I found a few of them. The remainder were
found using `git grep "[a-zA-Z.,)]$TAB[a-zA-Z]"`.

"git pack-objects" learned another algorithm to compute the set of
objects to send, that trades the resulting packfile off to save
traversal cost to favor small pushes.
* ds/push-sparse-tree-walk:
pack-objects: create GIT_TEST_PACK_SPARSE
pack-objects: create pack.useSparse setting
revision: implement sparse algorithm
list-objects: consume sparse tree walk
revision: add mark_tree_uninteresting_sparse
Documentation around core.crlf has been updated.
* jk/autocrlf-overrides-eol-doc:
docs/config: clarify "text property" in core.eol
doc/gitattributes: clarify "autocrlf overrides eol"
The author.email, author.name, committer.email and committer.name
settings are analogous to the GIT_AUTHOR_* and GIT_COMMITTER_*
environment variables, but for the git config system. This allows them
to be set separately for each repository.
Git supports setting different authorship and committer
information with environment variables. However, environment variables
are set in the shell, so if different authorship and committer
information is needed for different repositories an external tool is
required.
This adds support to git config for author.email, author.name,
committer.email and committer.name settings so this information
can be set per repository.
Also, it generalizes the fmt_ident function so it can handle author vs
committer identification.

"git rebase -i" learned to re-execute a command given with 'exec'
to run after it failed the last time.
* js/rebase-i-redo-exec:
rebase: introduce a shortcut for --reschedule-failed-exec
rebase: add a config option to default to --reschedule-failed-exec
rebase: introduce --reschedule-failed-exec
The word "property" is vague here. Let's spell out that we mean the path
must be marked with the text attribute.
While we're here, let's make the paragraph a little easier to read by
de-emphasizing the "when core.autocrlf is false" bit. Putting it in the
first sentence obscures the main content, and many readers won't care
about autocrlf (i.e., anyone who is just following the gitattributes(7)
advice, which mainly discusses "text" and "core.eol").

The '--sparse' flag in 'git pack-objects' changes the algorithm
used to enumerate objects to one that is faster for individual
users pushing new objects that change only a small cone of the
working directory. The sparse algorithm is not recommended for a
server, which likely sends new objects that appear across the
entire working directory.
Create a 'pack.useSparse' setting that enables this new algorithm.
This allows 'git push' to use this algorithm without passing a
'--sparse' flag all the way through four levels of run_command()
calls.
If the '--no-sparse' flag is set, then this config setting is
overridden.

"git push $there $src:$dst" rejects when $dst is not a fully
qualified refname and not clear what the end user meant. The
codepath has been taught to give a clearer error message, and also
guess where the push should go by taking the type of the pushed
object into account (e.g. a tag object would want to go under
refs/tags/).
* ab/push-dwim-dst:
push doc: document the DWYM behavior pushing to unqualified <dst>
push: test that <src> doesn't DWYM if <dst> is unqualified
push: add an advice on unqualified <dst> push
push: move unqualified refname error into a function
push: improve the error shown on unqualified <dst> push

remote.c: add braces in anticipation of a follow-up change
The "http.version" configuration variable can be used with recent
enough cURL library to force the version of HTTP used to talk when
fetching and pushing.
* fc/http-version:
http: add support selecting http version
The documentation for this option jumps right in with "With `add`",
without explaining that `add` is a sub-command of "git worktree".
Together with rather odd grammatical structure of the remainder of the
sentence, the description can be difficult for newcomers to understand.
Clarify by improving the grammar and mentioning "git worktree add"
explicitly.

It would be cumbersome to type out that option all the time, so let's
offer the convenience of a config setting: rebase.rescheduleFailedExec.
Besides, this opens the door to changing the default in a future version
of Git: it does make some sense to reschedule failed `exec` commands by
default (and if we could go back in time when the `exec` command was
invented, we probably would change that default right from the start).

If a user explicitly sets
[index]
threads = true
to read the index using multiple threads, ensure that index writes
include the offset table by default to make that possible. This
ensures that the user's intent of turning on threading is respected.
In other words, permit the following configurations:
- index.threads and index.recordOffsetTable unspecified: do not write
the offset table yet (to avoid alarming the user with "ignoring IEOT
extension" messages when an older version of Git accesses the
repository) but do make use of multiple threads to read the index if
the supporting offset table is present.
This can also be requested explicitly by setting index.threads=true,
0, or >1 and index.recordOffsetTable=false.
- index.threads=false or 1: do not write the offset table, and do not
make use of the offset table.
One can set index.recordOffsetTable=false as well, to be more
explicit.
- index.threads=true, 0, or >1 and index.recordOffsetTable unspecified:
write the offset table and make use of threads at read time.
This can also be requested by setting index.threads=true, 0, >1, or
unspecified and index.recordOffsetTable=true.
Fortunately the complication is temporary: once most Git installations
have upgraded to a version with support for the IEOT and EOIE
extensions, we can flip the defaults for index.recordEndOfIndexEntries
and index.recordOffsetTable to true and eliminate the settings.

As with EOIE, popular versions of Git do not support the new IEOT
extension yet. When accessing a Git repository written by a more
modern version of Git, they correctly ignore the unrecognized section,
but in the process they loudly warn
ignoring IEOT extension
resulting in confusion for users. Introduce the index extension more
gently by not writing it yet in this first version with support for
it. Soon, once sufficiently many users are running a modern version
of Git, we can flip the default so users benefit from this index
extension by default.
Introduce a '[index] recordOffsetTable' configuration variable to
control whether the new index extension is written.

Since 3b1d9e04 (eoie: add End of Index Entry (EOIE) extension,
2018-10-10) Git defaults to writing the new EOIE section when writing
out an index file. Usually that is a good thing because it improves
threaded performance, but when a Git repository is shared with older
versions of Git, it produces a confusing warning:
$ git status
ignoring EOIE extension
HEAD detached at 371ed0defa
nothing to commit, working tree clean
Let's introduce the new index extension more gently. First we'll roll
out the new version of Git that understands it, and then once
sufficiently many users are using such a version, we can flip the
default to writing it by default.
Introduce a '[index] recordEndOfIndexEntries' configuration variable
to allow interested users to benefit from this index extension early.

The rebase.useBuiltin variable introduced in 55071ea248 ("rebase:

default in 5541bd5b8f ("rebase: default to using the builtin rebase",
2018-08-08), but had no documentation.
Let's document it so that users who run into any stability issues with
the C rewrite know there's an escape hatch[1], and make it clear that
needing to turn off builtin rebase means you've found a bug in git.

Add an advice to the recently improved error message added in
f8aae12034 ("push: allow unqualified dest refspecs to DWIM",
2008-04-23).
Now with advice.pushUnqualifiedRefName=true (on by default) we show a
hint about how to proceed:
$ ./git-push avar v2.19.0^{commit}:newbranch -n
error: The destination you provided is not a full refname (i.e.,
starting with "refs/"). We tried to guess what you meant by:
- Looking for a ref that matches 'newbranch' on the remote side.
- Checking if the <src> being pushed ('v2.19.0^{commit}')
is a ref in "refs/{heads,tags}/". If so we add a corresponding
refs/{heads,tags}/ prefix on the remote side.
Neither worked, so we gave up. You must fully qualify the ref.
hint: The <src> part of the refspec is a commit object.
hint: Did you mean to create a new branch by pushing to
hint: 'v2.19.0^{commit}:refs/heads/newbranch'?
error: failed to push some refs to 'git@github.com:avar/git.git'
When trying to push a tag, tree or a blob we suggest that perhaps the
user meant to push them to refs/tags/ instead.
The if/else duplication for all of OBJ_{COMMIT,TAG,TREE,BLOB} is
unfortunate, but is required to correctly mark the messages for
translation. See the discussion in
<87r2gxebsi.fsf@evledraar.gmail.com> about that.

config.txt is going to be broken down in smaller pieces and put under
Documentation/config directory. Update build rules to take these files
into account.
A dummy file is added to make sure wildcard expansion is predictable
