The previous two steps were meant to stop updating the explicit
refname the user gave to the command to a different ref that points
at it. Most notably, we no longer substitute a branch name the user
used with a name of the tag that points at the commit at the tip of
the branch (it still can be done with "local-branch:remote-tag").
However, they also lost the code that included the message in a
tag when the user _did_ ask the tag to be pulled. Resurrect it.

This allows a user to say that a local branch has a different name on
the remote server, using the same syntax that "git push" uses to create
that situation.

The current 'request-pull' will try to find matching commit on the given
remote, and rewrite the "please pull" line to match that remote ref.
That may be very helpful if your local tree doesn't match the layout of
the remote branches, but for the common case it's been a recurring
disaster, when "request-pull" is done against a delayed remote update, and
it rewrites the target branch randomly to some other branch name that
happens to have the same expected SHA1 (or more commonly, leaves it
blank).
To avoid that recurring problem, this changes "git request-pull" so that
it matches the ref name to be pulled against the *local* repository, and
then warns if the remote repository does not have that exact same branch
or tag name and content.
This means that git request-pull will never rewrite the ref-name you gave
it. If the local branch name is "xyzzy", that is the only branch name
that request-pull will ask the other side to fetch.
If the remote has that branch under a different name, that's your problem
and git request-pull will not try to fix it up (but git request-pull will
warn about the fact that no exact matching branch is found, and you can
edit the end result to then have the remote name you want if it doesn't
match your local one).
The new "find local ref" code will also complain loudly if you give an
ambiguous refname (eg you have both a tag and a branch with that same
name, and you don't specify "heads/name" or "tags/name").

If the git version number consists of less than three period
separated numbers, then the Windows resource file compilation
issues a syntax error:
$ touch git.rc
$ make V=1 git.res
GIT_VERSION = 1.9.rc0
windres -O coff \
-DMAJOR=1 -DMINOR=9 -DPATCH=rc0 \
-DGIT_VERSION="\\\"1.9.rc0\\\"" git.rc -o git.res
C:\msysgit\msysgit\mingw\bin\windres.exe: git.rc:2: syntax error
make: *** [git.res] Error 1
$
Note that -DPATCH=rc0.
The values passed via -DMAJOR=, -DMINOR=, and -DPATCH= are used in
FILEVERSION and PRODUCTVERSION statements, which expect up to four numeric
values. These version numbers are intended for machine consumption. They
are typically inspected by installers to decide whether a file to be
installed is newer than one that exists on the system, but are not used
for much else.
We can be pretty certain that there are no tools that look at these
version numbers, not even the installer of Git for Windows does.
Therefore, to fix the syntax error, fill in only the first two numbers,
which we are guaranteed to find in Git version numbers.

Users often find that "next" and "prev" do the opposite of what they
expect. For example, "next" moves to the next match down the list, but
that is almost always backwards in time. Replacing the text with arrows

Since 918dbf58, git-gui crashes if started with Tk 8.4. The reason is that
tk < 8.5 does not support -stretch option for panedwindow.
Without the option it's not possible to properly expand the right half -
the commit area is expanded, while desired behavior is to expand the diff
area. So the whole feature should be disabled with Tk
version less than 8.5.

pull: suppress error when no remoteref is found
Commit 48059e4 (pull: use merge-base --fork-point when appropriate,

yield a non-empty string or return an error, but there are circumstances
where it will yield an empty string.
The previous code then invoked git-rev-list with no arguments, which
results in an error suppressed by redirecting stderr to /dev/null. Now
we invoke git-merge-base with an empty branch name, which also results
in an error. Suppress this in the same way.

Subversion serf backend in versions 1.8.5 and below has a bug(*) that the
function creating the descriptor of a file change -- add_file() --
doesn't make a copy of its third argument when storing it on the
returned descriptor. As a result, by the time this field is used (in
transactions of file copying or renaming) it may well be released, and
the memory reused.
One of its possible manifestations is the svn assertion triggering on an
invalid path, with a message
svn_fspath__skip_ancestor: Assertion
`svn_fspath__is_canonical(child_fspath)' failed.
This patch works around this bug, by storing the value to be passed as
the third argument to add_file() in a local variable with the same scope
as the file change descriptor, making sure their lifetime is the same.

Commit 43eb920 switched one of the sub-repository in this
test to matching to prepare for a world where the default
becomes "simple". However, the main repository needs a
similar change.
We did not notice any test failure when merged with b2ed944
(push: switch default from "matching" to "simple", 2013-01-04)
because t5531.6 is trying to provoke a failure of "git push"
due to a submodule check. When combined with b2ed944 the
push still fails, but for the wrong reason (because our
upstream setup does not exist, not because of the submodule).
