pull: Apply -q and -v options to rebase mode as well

git pull passed -q and -v only to git merge, but they can be useful for
git rebase as well, so pass them there, too.

In particular, using -q shuts up the "Already up-to-date." message.
Especially, a new test script runs the same "pull --rebase" twice to
make sure both cases are quiet, when it has something to fetch and
when it is already up to date.

t5004: fix issue with empty archive test and bsdtar

bsdtar, which is the default tar on Mac OS X, handles empty archives
just fine but reports archives containing only a pax extended header
comment as damaged.  Work around the issue by explicitly generating
the archive for the tree and not the commit, which causes git archive
to omit the commit hash comment record from the tar file.

gitweb/INSTALL: Simplify description of GITWEB_CONFIG_SYSTEM

The flow of the text describing GITWEB_CONFIG_SYSTEM and
GITWEB_CONFIG_COMMON in gitweb/INSTALL is awkward.  "This is bad. Oh
the other hand, better is broken. Therefore we do this." forces
readers to make multiple guesses while reading: "ok, bad, so you
plan to change it and warn us about upcoming change?  oh, not that,
changing it is bad, so we have to live with it?  oh, not that, there
is another one that is common and that is what we can use".

Better rewrite said paragraph to avoid such a mental roller-coaster in
the first place.

usage: allow pluggable die-recursion checks

When any git code calls die or die_errno, we use a counter
to detect recursion into the die functions from any of the
helper functions. However, such a simple counter is not good
enough for threaded programs, which may call die from a
sub-thread, killing only the sub-thread (but incrementing
the counter for everyone).

Rather than try to deal with threads ourselves here, let's
just allow callers to plug in their own recursion-detection
function. This is similar to how we handle the die routine
(the caller plugs in a die routine which may kill only the
sub-thread).

run-command: use thread-aware die_is_recursing routine

If we die from an async thread, we do not actually exit the
program, but just kill the thread. This confuses the static
counter in usage.c's default die_is_recursing function; it
updates the counter once for the thread death, and then when
the main program calls die() itself, it erroneously thinks
we are recursing. The end result is that we print "recursion
detected in die handler" instead of the real error in such a
case (the easiest way to trigger this is having a remote
connection hang up while running a sideband demultiplexer).

This patch solves it by using a per-thread counter when the
async_die function is installed; we detect recursion in each
thread (including the main one), but they do not step on
each other's toes.

Other threaded code does not need to worry about this, as
they do not install specialized die handlers; they just let
a die() from a sub-thread take down the whole program.

Since we are overriding the default recursion-check
function, there is an interesting corner case that is not a
problem, but bears some explanation. Imagine the main thread
calls die(), and then in the die_routine starts an async
call. We will switch to using thread-local storage, which
starts at 0, for the main thread's counter, even though
the original counter was actually at 1. That's OK, though,
for two reasons:

  1. It would miss only the first level of recursion, and
     would still find recursive failures inside the async
     helper.

  2. We do not currently and are not likely to start doing
     anything as heavyweight as starting an async routine
     from within a die routine or helper function.

cat-file: print tags raw for "cat-file -p"

When "cat-file -p" prints commits, it shows them in their
raw format, since git's format is already human-readable.
For tags, however, we print the whole thing raw except for
one thing: we convert the timestamp on the tagger line into a
human-readable date.

This dates all the way back to a0f15fa (Pretty-print tagger
dates, 2006-03-01). At that time there was no other way to
pretty-print a tag.  These days, however, neither of those
matters much. The normal way to pretty-print a tag is with
"git show", which is much more flexible than "cat-file -p".

Commit a0f15fa also built "verify-tag --verbose" (and
subsequently "tag -v") around the "cat-file -p" output.
However, that behavior was lost in commit 62e09ce (Make git
tag a builtin, 2007-07-20), and we went back to printing
the raw tag contents. Nobody seems to have noticed the bug
since then (and it is arguably a saner behavior anyway, as
it shows the actual bytes for which we verified the
signature).

Let's drop the tagger-date formatting for "cat-file -p". It
makes us more consistent with cat-file's commit
pretty-printer, and as a bonus, we can drop the hand-rolled
tag parsing code in cat-file (which happened to behave
inconsistently with the tag pretty-printing code elsewhere).

This is a change of output format, so it's possible that
some callers could considered this a regression. However,
the original behavior was arguably a bug (due to the
inconsistency with commits), likely nobody was relying on it
(even we do not use it ourselves these days), and anyone
relying on the "-p" pretty-printer should be able to expect
a change in the output format (i.e., while "cat-file" is
plumbing, the output format of "-p" was never guaranteed to
be stable).

blame: handle broken commit headers gracefully

split_ident_line() can leave us with the pointers date_begin, date_end,
tz_begin and tz_end all set to NULL.  Check them before use and supply
the same fallback values as in the case of a negative return code from
split_ident_line().

The "(unknown)" is not actually shown in the output, though, because it
will be converted to a number (zero) eventually.

receive-pack: close sideband fd on early pack errors

Since commit a22e6f8 (receive-pack: send pack-processing
stderr over sideband, 2012-09-21), receive-pack will start
an async sideband thread to copy the stderr from our
index-pack or unpack-objects child to the client. We hand
the thread's input descriptor to unpack(), which puts it in
the "err" member of the "struct child_process".

After unpack() returns, we use finish_async() to reap the
sideband thread. The thread is only ready to die when it
gets EOF on its pipe, which is connected to the err
descriptor. So we expect all of the write ends of that pipe
to be closed as part of unpack().

Normally, this works fine. After start_command forks, it
closes the parent copy of the descriptor. Then once the
child exits (whether it was successful or not), that closes
the only remaining writer.

However, there is one code-path in unpack() that does not
handle this. Before we decide which of unpack-objects or
index-pack to use, we read the pack header ourselves to see
how many objects it contains. If there is an error here, we
exit without running either sub-command, the pipe descriptor
remains open, and we are in a deadlock, waiting for the
sideband thread to die (which is in turn waiting for us to
close the pipe).

We can fix this by making sure that unpack() always closes
the pipe before returning.

prompt: fix untracked files for zsh

We signal presense of untracked files by adding a per-cent sign '%'
to the prompt.  But because '%' is used as an escape character to
introduce prompt customization in zsh (just like bash prompt uses
'\' to escape '\u', '\h', etc.), we need to say '%%' to get a
literal per-cent.
