It is possible to have the output ' A' from 'git status --porcelain'
by adding a file using the '--intend-to-add' flag. Make this clear by
adding the pattern in the table of the documentation.
However the mode 'DM' (deleted in the index, modified in the working tree)
is not possible in the non-merge case in which the file only shows
as 'D ' (and adding it back to the worktree would show an additional line
of an '??' untracked file). It is also not possible in the merge case as
then the mode involves a 'U' on one side of the merge.
Remove that pattern.

The machinery to clone & fetch, which in turn involves packing and
unpacking objects, have been told how to omit certain objects using
the filtering mechanism introduced by the jh/object-filtering
topic, and also mark the resulting pack as a promisor pack to
tolerate missing objects, taking advantage of the mechanism
introduced by the jh/fsck-promisors topic.
* jh/partial-clone:
t5616: test bulk prefetch after partial fetch
fetch: inherit filter-spec from partial clone
t5616: end-to-end tests for partial clone
fetch-pack: restore save_commit_buffer after use
unpack-trees: batch fetching of missing blobs
clone: partial clone
partial-clone: define partial clone settings in config
fetch: support filters
fetch: refactor calculation of remote list
fetch-pack: test support excluding large blobs
fetch-pack: add --no-filter
fetch-pack, index-pack, transport: partial clone
upload-pack: add object filtering for partial clone
In preparation for implementing narrow/partial clone, the machinery
for checking object connectivity used by gc and fsck has been
taught that a missing object is OK when it is referenced by a
packfile specially marked as coming from trusted repository that
promises to make them available on-demand and lazily.
* jh/fsck-promisors:
gc: do not repack promisor packfiles
rev-list: support termination at promisor objects
sha1_file: support lazily fetching missing objects
introduce fetch-object: fetch one promisor object
index-pack: refactor writing of .keep files
fsck: support promisor objects as CLI argument

Note the caveat where 2.17 is stricter about index validation
potentially causing "could not open directory" warnings when git is
upgraded. See the preceding "dir.c: stop ignoring opendir() error in
open_cached_dir()" change.
This caused some mayhem when I upgraded git to a version with this
series at Booking.com, and other users have doubtless enabled the UC
extension and are in for a surprise when they upgrade. Let's give them
a headsup in the docs.

Document the bug tested for in my "status: add a failing test showing
a core.untrackedCache bug" and fixed in Duy's "dir.c: fix missing dir
invalidation in untracked code".
Since this is very likely something others will encounter in the
future on older versions, and it's not obvious how to fix it let's
document both that it exists, and how to "fix" it with a one-off
command.
As noted in that commit, even though this bug gets the untracked cache
into a bad state, we have not yet found a case where this is user
visible, and thus it makes sense for these docs to focus on the
symlink case only.

It perhaps goes without saying that file-local stuff should
be marked static, but it does not hurt to remind people.
Less obvious is that we are settling on "do not include
extern in function declarations". It is already the default
unless the function was previously declared static (but if
you are following a static declaration with an unmarked one,
you should think about why you are declaring the thing
twice). And so it just becomes an extra noise-word in our
header files.
We used to give the opposite advice, so there are quite a
few "extern" markers in early Git code. But this at least
makes a concrete suggestion that we can follow going
forward.

This option allows commits with empty commit messages to be rebased,
matching the same option in git-commit and git-cherry-pick. While empty
log messages are frowned upon, sometimes one finds them in older
repositories (e.g. translated from another VCS [0]), or have other
reasons for desiring them. The option is available in git-commit and
git-cherry-pick, so it is natural to make other git tools play nicely
with them. Adding this as an option allows the default to be "give the
user a chance to fix", while not interrupting the user's workflow
otherwise [1].

This new option can be used to override the implicit --syslog of
--inetd, or to disable all logging. (While --detach also implies
--syslog, --log-destination=stderr with --detach is useless since
--detach disassociates the process from the original stderr.) --syslog
is retained as an alias for --log-destination=syslog.
--log-destination always overrides implicit --syslog regardless of
option order. This is different than the “last one wins” logic that
applies to some implicit options elsewhere in Git, but should hopefully
be less confusing. (I also don’t know if *all* implicit options in Git
follow “last one wins”.)
The combination of --inetd with --log-destination=stderr is useful, for
instance, when running `git daemon` as an instanced systemd service
(with associated socket unit). In this case, log messages sent via
syslog are received by the journal daemon, but run the risk of being
processed at a time when the `git daemon` process has already exited
(especially if the process was very short-lived, e.g. due to client
error), so that the journal daemon can no longer read its cgroup and
attach the message to the correct systemd unit (see systemd/systemd#2913
[1]). Logging to stderr instead can solve this problem, because systemd
can connect stderr directly to the journal daemon, which then already
knows which unit is associated with this stream.
