As noted by Junio:
Back when "git am" was written, it was not considered a bug that the
"git am --resolved" option did not offer the user a chance to update
the log message to match the adjustment of the code the user made,
but honestly, I'd have to say that it is a bug in "git am" in that
over time it wasn't adjusted to the new world order where we
encourage users to describe what they did when the automation
hiccuped by opening an editor. These days, even when automation
worked well (e.g. a clean auto-merge with "git merge"), we open an
editor. The world has changed, and so should the expectations.
Junio also suggested providing a workaround such as allowing --no-edit
together with git rebase --continue, but that should probably be done in
a patch after the git-2.26.0 release. For now, just document the known
difference in the Behavioral Differences section.

Git supports performing connections to HTTPS proxies, but we don't
support doing mutual authentication with them (through TLS).
Add the necessary options to be able to send a client certificate to
the HTTPS proxy.
A client certificate can provide an alternative way of authentication
instead of using 'ProxyAuthorization' or other more common methods of
authentication. Libcurl supports this functionality already, so changes
are somewhat minimal. The feature is guarded by the first available
libcurl version that supports these options.
4 configuration options are added and documented, cert, key, cert
password protected and CA info. The CA info should be used to specify a
different CA path to validate the HTTPS proxy cert.

check-ignore: fix documentation and implementation to match
When converting a repository using submodules from one hash algorithm to
another, it is necessary to rewrite the submodules from the old
algorithm to the new algorithm, since only references to submodules, not
their contents, are written to the fast-export stream. Without rewriting
the submodules, fast-import fails with an "Invalid dataref" error when
encountering a submodule in another algorithm.
Add a pair of options, --rewrite-submodules-from and
--rewrite-submodules-to, that take a list of marks produced by
fast-export and fast-import, respectively, when processing the
submodule. Use these marks to map the submodule commits from the old
algorithm to the new algorithm.
We read marks into two corresponding struct mark_set objects and then
perform a mapping from the old to the new using a hash table. This lets
us reuse the same mark parsing code that is used elsewhere and allows us
to efficiently read and match marks based on their ID, since mark files
need not be sorted.
Note that because we're using a khash table for the object IDs, and this
table copies values of struct object_id instead of taking references to
them, it's necessary to zero the struct object_id values that we use to
insert and look up in the table. Otherwise, we would end up with SHA-1
values that don't match because of whatever stack garbage might be left
in the unused area.

For the foreseeable future, SHA-1 will be the default algorithm for Git.
However, when running the testsuite, we want to be able to test an
arbitrary algorithm. It would be quite burdensome and very untidy to
have to specify the algorithm we'd like to test every time we
initialized a new repository somewhere in the testsuite, so add an
environment variable to allow us to specify the default hash algorithm
for Git.
This has the benefit that we can set it once for the entire testsuite
and not have to think about it. In the future, users can also use it to
set the default for their repositories if they would like to do so.

Allow the user to specify the hash algorithm on the command line by
using the --object-format option to git init. Validate that the user is
not attempting to reinitialize a repository with a different hash
algorithm. Ensure that if we are writing a non-SHA-1 repository that we
set the repository version to 1 and write the objectFormat extension.
Restrict this option to work only when ENABLE_SHA256 is set until the
codebase is in a situation to fully support this.

When "git am --show-current-patch" was added in commit 984913a210 ("am:
add --show-current-patch", 2018-02-12), "git am" started recommending it
as a replacement for .git/rebase-merge/patch. Unfortunately the suggestion
is somewhat misguided; for example, the output of "git am --show-current-patch"
cannot be passed to "git apply" if it is encoded as quoted-printable
or base64. Add a new mode to "git am --show-current-patch" in order to
straighten the suggestion.

When "git am --show-current-patch" was added in commit 984913a210 ("am:
add --show-current-patch", 2018-02-12), "git am" started recommending it
as a replacement for .git/rebase-merge/patch. Unfortunately the suggestion
is somewhat misguided; for example, the output "git am --show-current-patch"
cannot be passed to "git apply" if it is encoded as quoted-printable or
base64. To simplify worktree operations and to avoid that users poke into
.git, it would be better if "git am" also provided a mode that copies
.git/rebase-merge/patch to stdout.
One possibility could be to have completely separate options, introducing
for example --show-current-message (for .git/rebase-apply/NNNN)
and --show-current-diff (for .git/rebase-apply/patch), while possibly
deprecating --show-current-patch.
That would even remove the need for the first two patches in the series.
However, the long common prefix would have prevented using an abbreviated
option such as "--show". Therefore, I chose instead to add a string
argument to --show-current-patch. The new argument is optional, so that
"git am --show-current-patch"'s behavior remains backwards-compatible.
The next choice to make is how to handle multiple --show-current-patch
options. Right now, something like "git am --abort --show-current-patch"
is rejected, and the previous suggestion would likewise have naturally
rejected a command line like
git am --show-current-message --show-current-diff
Therefore, I decided to also reject for example
git am --show-current-patch=diff --show-current-patch=raw
In other words the whole of --show-current-patch=xxx (including the
optional argument) is treated as the command mode. I found this to be
more consistent and intuitive, even though it differs from the usual
"last one wins" semantics of the git command line.
Add the code to parse submodes based on the above design, where for now
"raw" is the only valid submode. "raw" prints the full e-mail message
just like "git am --show-current-patch".

In some cases, a user will want to use a specific credential helper for
a wildcard pattern, such as https://*.corp.example.com. We have code
that handles this already with the urlmatch code, so let's use that
instead of our custom code.
Since the urlmatch code is a superset of our current matching in terms
of capabilities, there shouldn't be any cases of things that matched
previously that don't match now. However, in addition to wildcard
matching, we now use partial path matching, which can cause slightly
different behavior in the case that a helper applies to the prefix
(considering path components) of the remote URL. While different, this
is probably the behavior people were wanting anyway.
Since we're using the urlmatch code, we need to encode the components
we've gotten into a URL to match, so add a function to percent-encode
data and format the URL with it. We now also no longer need to the
custom code to match URLs, so let's remove it.
Additionally, the urlmatch code always looks for the best match, whereas
we want all matches for credential helpers to preserve existing
behavior. Let's add an optional field, select_fn, that lets us control
which items we want (in this case, all of them) and default it to the
best-match code that already exists for other users.
