can fall into infinite loop.

rebase: Handle cases where format-patch fails

'format-patch' could fail due to reasons such as out of memory. Such
failures are not detected or handled, which causes rebase to incorrectly
think that it completed successfully and continue with cleanup. i.e.
calling move_to_original_branch

Instead of using a pipe, we separate 'format-patch' and 'am' by using an
intermediate file. This gurantees that we can invoke 'am' with the
complete input, or not invoking 'am' at all if 'format-patch' failed.

Also remove the use of '&&' at the end of the if-block, and rearrange
the 'write_basic_state' and 'move_to_original_branch' to make the logic
flow a bit better and easier to read.

apply.c:update_pre_post_images(): the preimage can be truncated

5166714 (apply: Allow blank context lines to match beyond EOF,
2010-03-06) and then later 0c3ef98 (apply: Allow blank *trailing*
context lines to match beyond EOF, 2010-04-08) taught "git apply"
to trim new blank lines at the end in the patch text when matching
the contents being patched and the preimage recorded in the patch,
under --whitespace=fix mode.

When a preimage is modified to match the current contents in
preparation for such a "fixed" patch application, the context lines
in the postimage must be updated to match (otherwise, it would
reintroduce whitespace breakages), and update_pre_post_images()
function is responsible for doing this.  However, this function was
not updated to take into account a case where the removal of
trailing blank lines reduces the number of lines in the preimage,
and triggered an assertion error.

The logic to fix the postimage by copying the corrected context
lines from the preimage was not prepared to handle this case,
either, but it was protected by the assert() and only got exposed
when the assertion is corrected.

config, gitignore: failure to access with ENOTDIR is ok

The access_or_warn() function is used to check for optional
configuration files like .gitconfig and .gitignore and warn when they
are not accessible due to a configuration issue (e.g., bad
permissions).  It is not supposed to complain when a file is simply
missing.

Noticed on a system where ~/.config/git was a file --- when the new
XDG_CONFIG_HOME support looks for ~/.config/git/config it should
ignore ~/.config/git instead of printing irritating warnings:

 $ git status -s
 warning: unable to access '/home/jrn/.config/git/config': Not a directory
 warning: unable to access '/home/jrn/.config/git/config': Not a directory
 warning: unable to access '/home/jrn/.config/git/config': Not a directory
 warning: unable to access '/home/jrn/.config/git/config': Not a directory

Compare v1.7.12.1~2^2 (attr:failure to open a .gitattributes file
is OK with ENOTDIR, 2012-09-13).

config: treat user and xdg config permission problems as errors

Git reads multiple configuration files: settings come first from the
system config file (typically /etc/gitconfig), then the xdg config
file (typically ~/.config/git/config), then the user's dotfile
(~/.gitconfig), then the repository configuration (.git/config).

Git has always used access(2) to decide whether to use each file; as
an unfortunate side effect, that means that if one of these files is
unreadable (e.g., EPERM or EIO), git skips it.  So if I use
~/.gitconfig to override some settings but make a mistake and give it
the wrong permissions then I am subject to the settings the sysadmin
chose for /etc/gitconfig.

Better to error out and ask the user to correct the problem.

This only affects the user and xdg config files, since the user
presumably has enough access to fix their permissions.  If the system
config file is unreadable, the best we can do is to warn about it so
the user knows to notify someone and get on with work in the meantime.

doc: advertise GIT_CONFIG_NOSYSTEM

On a multiuser system where mortals do not have write access to /etc,
the GIT_CONFIG_NOSYSTEM variable is the best tool we have to keep
getting work done when a syntax error or other problem renders
/etc/gitconfig buggy, until the sysadmin sorts the problem out.

Noticed while experimenting with teaching git to error out when
/etc/gitconfig is unreadable.

config: exit on error accessing any config file

There is convenience in warning and moving on when somebody has a
bogus permissions on /etc/gitconfig and cannot do anything about it.
But the cost in predictability and security is too high --- when
unreadable config files are skipped, it means an I/O error or
permissions problem causes important configuration to be bypassed.

For example, servers may depend on /etc/gitconfig to enforce security
policy (setting transfer.fsckObjects or receive.deny*).  Best to
always error out when encountering trouble accessing a config file.

This may add inconvenience in some cases:

  1. You are inspecting somebody else's repo, and you do not have
     access to their .git/config file.  Git typically dies in this
     case already since we cannot read core.repositoryFormatVersion,
     so the change should not be too noticeable.

  2. You have used "sudo -u" or a similar tool to switch uid, and your
     environment still points Git at your original user's global
     config, which is not readable.  In this case people really would
     be inconvenienced (they would rather see the harmless warning and
     continue the operation) but they can work around it by setting
     HOME appropriately after switching uids.

  3. You do not have access to /etc/gitconfig due to a broken setup.
     In this case, erroring out is a good way to put pressure on the
     sysadmin to fix the setup.  While they wait for a reply, users
     can set GIT_CONFIG_NOSYSTEM to true to keep Git working without
     complaint.

After this patch, errors accessing the repository-local and systemwide
config files and files requested in include directives cause Git to
exit, just like errors accessing ~/.gitconfig.

dowild() does case insensitive matching by lower-casing the text. That

but upper case means exact matching.

wildmatch: adjust "**" behavior

Standard wildmatch() sees consecutive asterisks as "*" that can also
match slashes. But that may be hard to explain to users as
"abc/**/def" can match "abcdef", "abcxyzdef", "abc/def", "abc/x/def",
"abc/x/y/def"...

This patch changes wildmatch so that users can do

- "**/def" -> all paths ending with file/directory 'def'
- "abc/**" - equivalent to "/abc/"
- "abc/**/def" -> "abc/x/def", "abc/x/y/def"...
- otherwise consider the pattern malformed if "**" is found

Basically the magic of "**" only remains if it's wrapped around by
slashes.

wildmatch: make /**/ match zero or more directories

"foo/**/bar" matches "foo/x/bar", "foo/x/y/bar"... but not
"foo/bar". We make a special case, when foo/**/ is detected (and
"foo/" part is already matched), try matching "bar" with the rest of
the string.

"Match one or more directories" semantics can be easily achieved using
"foo/*/**/bar".

This also makes "**/foo" match "foo" in addition to "x/foo",
"x/y/foo"..
