remote-curl: always show friendlier 404 message
When we get an http 404 trying to get the initial list of
refs from the server, we try to be helpful and remind the
user that update-server-info may need to be run. This looks
like:
$ git clone https://github.com/non/existent
Cloning into 'existent'...
fatal: https://github.com/non/existent/info/refs?service=git-upload-pack not found: did you run git update-server-info on the server?
Suggesting update-server-info may be a good suggestion for
users who are in control of the server repo and who are
planning to set up dumb http. But for users of smart http,
and especially users who are not in control of the server
repo, the advice is useless and confusing.
Since most people are expected to use smart http these days,
it does not make sense to keep the update-server-info hint.
We not only drop the mention of update-server-info, but also
show only the main repo URL, not the full "info/refs" and
service parameter. These elements may be useful for
debugging a broken server configuration, but in the majority
of cases, users are not fetching from their own
repositories, but rather from other people's repositories;
they have neither the power nor interest to fix a broken
configuration, and the extra components just make the
message more confusing. Users who do want to debug can and
should use GIT_CURL_VERBOSE to get more complete information

remote-curl: show server content on http errors
If an http request to a remote git server fails, we show
only the http response code, or sometimes a custom message
for particular codes. This gives the server no opportunity
to offer a more detailed explanation of the reason for the
failure, or to give extra advice.
This patch teaches remote-curl to record and display the
body content of a failed http response. We only display such
responses when the content-type is advertised as text/plain,
as it is the most likely to look presentable on the user's
terminal (and it is hoped to be a good indication that the
message is intended for git clients, and not for a web
browser).
Each line of the new output is prepended with "remote:".
Example output may look like this (assuming the server is
configured to display such a helpful message):
$ GIT_SMART_HTTP=0 git clone https://example.com/some/repo.git
Cloning into 'repo'...
remote: Sorry, fetching via dumb http is forbidden.
remote: Please upgrade your git client to v1.6.6 or greater
remote: and make sure that smart-http is enabled.
error: The requested URL returned error: 403 while accessing http://localhost:5001/some/repo.git/info/refs
fatal: HTTP request failed
For the sake of simplicity, we only record and display these
errors during the initial fetch of the ref list, as that is
the initial contact with the server and where the most
common, interesting errors happen (and there is already
precedent, as that is the only place we currently massage
http error codes into more helpful messages).

t3600: document failure of rm across symbolic links
If we have a symlink "d" that points to a directory, we
should not be able to remove "d/f". In the normal case,
where "d/f" does not exist in the index, we already disallow
this, as we only remove things that git knows about in the
index. So for something like:
we will properly produce an error (as there is no index
entry for foo/bar). However, if there is an index entry for
the path (e.g., because the movement is due to working tree
changes that have not yet been reflected in the index), we
will happily delete it, even though the path we delete from the
filesystem is not the same as the path in the index.
This patch documents that failure with a test.
While this is a bug, it should not be possible to cause
serious data loss with it. For any path that does not have
an index entry, we will complain and bail. For a path which
does have an index entry, we will do the usual up-to-date
content check. So even if the deleted path in the filesystem
is not the same as the one we are removing from the index,
we do know that they at least have the same content, and
that the content is included in HEAD.
That means the worst case is not the accidental loss of
content, but rather confusion by the user when a copy of a
file another part of the tree is removed. Which makes this
bug a minor and hard-to-trigger annoyance rather than a
data-loss bug (and hence the fix can be saved for a rainy
day when somebody feels like working on it).

if it was asked to perform the pickaxe limiting. Move the code

full-tree diff and decides for each change whether to add it or warn

repositories "git add -u" will not be significantly slower than the

branch: improve error message for missing --set-upstream-to ref
If we are trying to set the upstream config for a branch,
the create_branch function will check both that the name
resolves as a ref, and that it is either a local or
remote-tracking branch.
However, before we do so we run get_sha1 on it to find out
whether it resolves at all (since the create_branch function
is also used to create actual branches, it wants to know
where to start the new branch). This means that if you feed
a ref that does not exist to "branch --set-upstream-to",
rather than getting a helpful message about tracking, you
only get "not a valid object name".
