contrib: remove vim support instructions

The git support scripts started shipping in upstream vim in version
7.2 (2008-08-09).  Clean up contrib/ a little by removing the
instructions for people on older versions of vim.

RHEL 6 already has vim 7.2.something, so anyone on a reasonably modern
operating system should not be affected.  Users on RHEL 5 presumably
know that means sometimes missing out on niceties like syntax
highlighting, so this should be safe.

svn-fe: Conform to pep8

Quite a large change, most of this was whitespace changes, though there
were a few places where I removed a comma or added a few characters.
Should pass through pep8 and pass every test.

Git 2.0-rc3
Merge branch 'sk/tag-contains-wo-recursion' into jch

* sk/tag-contains-wo-recursion:
  git tag --contains: avoid stack overflow
Merge branch 'ks/tree-diff-nway' into jch

Instead of running N pair-wise diff-trees when inspecting a
N-parent merge, find the set of paths that were touched by walking
N+1 trees in parallel.  These set of paths can then be turned into
N pair-wise diff-tree results to be processed through rename
detections and such.  And N=2 case nicely degenerates to the usual
2-way diff-tree, which is very nice.

* ks/tree-diff-nway:
  mingw: activate alloca
  combine-diff: speed it up, by using multiparent diff tree-walker directly
  tree-diff: rework diff_tree() to generate diffs for multiparent cases as well
  Portable alloca for Git
  tree-diff: reuse base str(buf) memory on sub-tree recursion
  tree-diff: no need to call "full" diff_tree_sha1 from show_path()
  tree-diff: rework diff_tree interface to be sha1 based
  tree-diff: diff_tree() should now be static
  tree-diff: remove special-case diff-emitting code for empty-tree cases
  tree-diff: simplify tree_entry_pathcmp
  tree-diff: show_path prototype is not needed anymore
  tree-diff: rename compare_tree_entry -> tree_entry_pathcmp
  tree-diff: move all action-taking code out of compare_tree_entry()
  tree-diff: don't assume compare_tree_entry() returns -1,0,1
  tree-diff: consolidate code for emitting diffs and recursion in one place
  tree-diff: show_tree() is not needed
  tree-diff: no need to pass match to skip_uninteresting()
  tree-diff: no need to manually verify that there is no mode change for a path
  combine-diff: move changed-paths scanning logic into its own function
  combine-diff: move show_log_first logic/action out of paths scanning
Merge branch 'as/grep-fullname-config' into jch

Add a configuration variable to force --full-name to be default for
"git grep".

This may cause regressions on scripted users that do not expect
this new behaviour.

* as/grep-fullname-config:
  grep: add grep.fullName config variable
Merge branch 'jc/apply-ignore-whitespace' into jch

"--ignore-space-change" option of "git apply" ignored the
spaces at the beginning of line too aggressively, which is
inconsistent with the option of the same name "diff" and "git diff"
have.

* jc/apply-ignore-whitespace:
  apply --ignore-space-change: lines with and without leading whitespaces do not match
Merge branch 'mh/ref-transaction' into jch

Update "update-ref --stdin [-z]" and then introduce a transactional
support for (multi-)reference updates.

* mh/ref-transaction: (27 commits)
  ref_transaction_commit(): work with transaction->updates in place
  struct ref_update: add a type field
  struct ref_update: add a lock field
  ref_transaction_commit(): simplify code using temporary variables
  struct ref_update: store refname as a FLEX_ARRAY
  struct ref_update: rename field "ref_name" to "refname"
  refs: remove API function update_refs()
  update-ref --stdin: reimplement using reference transactions
  refs: add a concept of a reference transaction
  update-ref --stdin: harmonize error messages
  update-ref --stdin: improve the error message for unexpected EOF
  t1400: test one mistake at a time
  update-ref --stdin -z: deprecate interpreting the empty string as zeros
  update-ref.c: extract a new function, parse_next_sha1()
  t1400: test that stdin -z update treats empty <newvalue> as zeros
  update-ref --stdin: simplify error messages for missing oldvalues
  update-ref --stdin: make error messages more consistent
  update-ref --stdin: improve error messages for invalid values
  update-ref.c: extract a new function, parse_refname()
  parse_cmd_verify(): copy old_sha1 instead of evaluating <oldvalue> twice

Merge branch 'ym/fix-opportunistic-index-update-race' into jch

Read-only operations such as "git status" that internally refreshes
the index write out the refreshed index to the disk to optimize
future accesses to the working tree, but this could race with a
"read-write" operation that modify the index while it is running.
Detect such a race and avoid overwriting the index.

Duy raised a good point that we may need to do the same for the
normal writeout codepath, not just the "opportunistic" update
codepath.  While that is true, nobody sane would be running two
simultaneous operations that are clearly write-oriented competing
with each other against the same index file.  So in that sense that
can be done as a less urgent follow-up for this topic.

* ym/fix-opportunistic-index-update-race:
  read-cache.c: verify index file before we opportunistically update it
  wrapper.c: add xpread() similar to xread()

# Conflicts:
# 	cache.h
Merge branch 'nd/index-pack-one-fd-per-thread' into jch

Enable threaded index-pack on platforms without thread-unsafe
pread() emulation.

* nd/index-pack-one-fd-per-thread:
  index-pack: work around thread-unsafe pread()

# Conflicts:
# 	builtin/index-pack.c
Merge branch 'ef/send-email-absolute-path-to-the-command' into jch

* ef/send-email-absolute-path-to-the-command:
  send-email: windows drive prefix (e.g. C:) appears only at the beginning
  send-email: recognize absolute path on Windows
Merge branch 'sk/svn-parse-datestamp' into jch

* sk/svn-parse-datestamp:
  SVN.pm::parse_svn_date: allow timestamps with a single-digit hour
Merge branch 'rs/ref-update-check-errors-early' into jch

* rs/ref-update-check-errors-early:
  commit.c: check for lock error and return early
  sequencer.c: check for lock failure and bail early in fast_forward_to
Merge branch 'fc/mergetools-vimdiff3' into jch

* fc/mergetools-vimdiff3:
  mergetools: add vimdiff3 mode
Merge branch 'fc/mergetool-prompt' (early part) into jch

* 'fc/mergetool-prompt' (early part):
  mergetool: run prompt only if guessed tool
Merge branch 'fc/merge-default-to-upstream' into jch

"git merge" without argument, even when there is an upstream
defined for the current branch, refused to run until
merge.defaultToUpstream is set to true. Flip the default of that
configuration variable to true.

* fc/merge-default-to-upstream:
  merge: enable defaulttoupstream by default
Merge branch 'lr/git-run-setup-gently' into jch

* lr/git-run-setup-gently:
  git.c: treat RUN_SETUP_GENTLY and RUN_SETUP as mutually exclusive
Merge branch 'jk/external-diff-use-argv-array' into jch

Code clean-up (and a bugfix which has been merged for 2.0).

  run_external_diff: refactor cmdline setup logic
  run_external_diff: hoist common bits out of conditional
  run_external_diff: drop fflush(NULL)
  run_external_diff: clean up error handling
  run_external_diff: use an argv_array for the environment
