* diff-files: do not play --no-index gamesJunio C Hamano2008-05-24
| | | | | | | | | | Being able to say "git diff A B" outside a git repository and getting a colourful version of "diff -u A B" may be nice, but such a cute hack should not give bogus results to scripts that want to give two paths, either or both of which happen to have been removed from the work tree, to "git diff-files".

| * add special "matching refs" refspecPaolo Bonzini2008-05-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch provides a way to specify "push matching heads" using a special refspec ":". This is useful because it allows "push = +:" as a way to specify that matching refs will be pushed but, in addition, forced updates will be allowed, which was not possible before.

Currently we use a single value, diff.renamelimit, for all situations. However, it is probably the case that a user is willing to spend more time finding renames during a merge than they are while looking at git-log. This patch provides a way of setting those values separately (though for backwards compatibility, merge still falls back on the diff renamelimit).

Now if the branch "bisect" or "new-bisect" already exists, and it was not created by git bisect itself, git bisect start fails with an appropriate error message. Additionally, if checking out a new bisect state fails due to a merge problem, git bisect cleans up the temporary branch "new-bisect".
