It is misleading to say that we pull refs from $GIT_DIR/refs/*, because we
may also consult the packed refs mechanism. These days we tend to treat
the "refs hierarchy" as more of an abstract namespace that happens to be
represented as $GIT_DIR/refs. At best, this is a minor inaccuracy, but at
worst it can confuse users who then look in $GIT_DIR/refs and find that it
is missing some of the refs they expected to see.
This patch drops most uses of "$GIT_DIR/refs/*", changing them into just
"refs/*", under the assumption that users can handle the concept of an
abstract refs namespace. There are a few things to note:
- most cases just dropped the $GIT_DIR/ portion. But for cases where
that left _just_ the word "refs", I changed it to "refs/" to help
indicate that it was a hierarchy. I didn't do the same for longer
paths (e.g., "refs/heads" remained, instead of becoming
"refs/heads/").
- in some cases, no change was made, as the text was explicitly about
unpacked refs (e.g., the discussion in git-pack-refs).
- In some cases it made sense instead to note the existence of packed
refs (e.g., in check-ref-format and rev-parse).

gitweb: esc_html (short) error message in die_error
The error message (second argument to die_error) is meant to be short,
one-line text description of given error. A few callers call
die_error with error message containing unescaped user supplied data
($hash, $file_name). Instead of forcing callers to escape data,
simply call esc_html on the parameter.
Note that optional third parameter, which contains detailed error
description, is meant to be HTML formatted, and therefore should be
not escaped.

description to read 'Internal Server Error' (titlecased).

submodule summary: Don't barf when invoked in an empty repo
When invoking "git submodule summary" in an empty repo (which can be
indirectly done by setting status.submodulesummary = true), it currently
emits an error message (via "git diff-index") since HEAD points to an
unborn branch.
This patch adds handling of the HEAD-points-to-unborn-branch special case,
so that "git submodule summary" no longer emits this error message.
The patch also adds a test case that verifies the fix.

Now that fast-import is creating packs with index version 2, there is
no point limiting the pack size by default. A pack split will still
happen if off_t is not sufficiently large to hold large offsets.
While updating the doc, let's remove the "packfiles fit on CDs"

transport_get_remote_refs() in tranport.c checks transport->remote_refs
to determine whether transport->get_refs_list() should be invoked. The
logic is "if it is NULL, we haven't run ls-remote to find out yet".
However, transport->remote_refs could still be NULL while cloning from
an empty repository. This causes get_refs_list() to be run unnecessarily.
Introduce a flag, transport->got_remote_refs, to more explicitly record
if we have run transport->get_refs_list() already.

If we encounter a symref that is dangling, in most cases we will warn
about it. The one exception is a dangling HEAD, as that indicates a
branch yet to be born.
However, the check in dwim_ref was not quite right. If we were fed
something like "HEAD^0" we would try to resolve "HEAD", see that it is
dangling, and then check whether the _original_ string we got was
"HEAD" (which it wasn't in this case). And that makes no sense; the
dangling thing we found was not "HEAD^0" but rather "HEAD".
Fixing this squelches a scary warning from "submodule summary HEAD" (and
consequently "git status" with status.submodulesummary set) in an empty
repo, as the submodule script calls "git rev-parse -q --verify HEAD^0".

Git should work regardless where the working directory is located,
even at root. This patch fixes two places where it assumes working
directory always have parent directory.
In setup_git_directory_gently(), when Git goes up to root and finds
.git there, it happily sets worktree to "" instead of "/".
In prefix_path(), loosen the outside repo check a little bit. Usually
when a path XXX is inside worktree /foo, it must be either "/foo", or
"/foo/...". When worktree is simply "/", we can safely ignore the
check: we have a slash at the beginning already.
Not related to worktree, but also set gitdir correctly if a bare repo
is placed (insanely?) at root.

stash pop: remove 'apply' options during 'drop' invocation
The 'git stash pop' option parsing used to remove the first argument
in --index mode. At the time this was implemented, this first
argument was always --index. However, since the invention of the -q
option in fcdd0e9 (stash: teach quiet option, 2009-06-17) you can
cause an internal invocation of
git stash drop --index
by running
git stash pop -q --index
which then of course fails because drop doesn't know --index.
To handle this, instead let 'git stash apply' decide what the future
argument to 'drop' should be.
Warning: this means that 'git stash apply' must parse all options that
'drop' can take, and deal with them in the same way. This is
currently true for its only option -q.

The pagination functionality in git am has some problems:
- It does not check if stdout is a tty, so it always paginates.
- If $GIT_PAGER uses any environment variables, they are being
ignored, since it does not run $GIT_PAGER through eval.
- If $GIT_PAGER is set to the empty string, instead of passing
output through to stdout, it tries to run $dotest/patch.

In commit dec543e (am -i, git-svn: use "git var GIT_PAGER"), I tried
to teach git svn to defer to git var on what pager to use. In the
process, I introduced two bugs:
- The value set for $pager in config_pager has local scope, so
run_pager never sees it;
- git var cannot tell whether git svn’s output is going to a
terminal, so the value chosen for $pager does not reflect that
information.
Fix them.

Make 'git var GIT_PAGER' always print the configured pager
Scripted commands that want to use git’s configured pager know better
than ‘git var’ does whether stdout is going to be a tty at the
appropriate time. Checking isatty(1) as git_pager() does now won’t
cut it, since the output of git var itself is almost never a terminal.
The symptom is that when used by humans, ‘git var GIT_PAGER’ behaves
as it should, but when used by scripts, it always returns ‘cat’!
So avoid tricks with isatty() and just always print the configured
pager.
This does not fix the callers to check isatty(1) themselves yet.
Nevertheless, this patch alone is enough to fix 'am --interactive'.
