This is in the hope of giving JBF's user-manual wider exposure.
I am not very happy with trailing whitespaces in the new

issues for now, but concentrate more on the structure and the

t9200: do not test -x bit if the filesystem does not support it.
The last test in t9200 wants to see if executable bit is
retained, which has no chance of succeeding on a filesystem that
does not handle executable bit correctly.

t9200: Re-code non-ascii path test in UTF-8
For the purpose of this test we do not really care if the paths
are in latin-1, but people on Cygwin seem to be having problem
on foreign-looking pathnames that do not play well with their
locale.
Let's try to re-code them in UTF-8 and see who screams,
thanks, or reports no-improvements.

Don't coredump on bad refs in update-server-info.
Apparently if we are unable to parse an object update-server-info
coredumps, as it doesn't bother to check the return value of its
call to parse_object.
Instead of coredumping, skip the ref.

lock_any_ref_for_update(): do not accept malformatted refs.
We used to use lock_any_ref_for_update() because the command
needs to also update HEAD (which is not under refs/, so
lock_ref_sha1() cannot be used). The function however did not
check for refs with illegal characters in them.
Use check_ref_format() to catch malformed refs. For this check,
we specifically do not want to say having less than two levels
in the name is illegal to allow HEAD (and perhaps other special
refs in the future).

Direct editing of config files may be more natural for users than using

Heavily expanded update hook to send more useful emails than the old hook
I know it's only an example, but having this might save someone else the
trouble of writing an enhanced version for themselves.
It basically does the same job as the old update hook, but with these
differences:
* The recipients list is read from the repository config file from
hooks.mailinglist
* Updating unannotated tags can be allowed by setting
hooks.allowunannotated
* Announcement emails (via annotated tag creation) can be sent to a
different mailing list by setting hooks.announcelist
* Output email is more verbose and generates specific content depending
on whether the ref is a tag, an annotated tag, a branch, or a
tracking branch
* The email is easier to filter; the subject line is prefixed with
[SCM] and a project description pulled from the "description" file
* It catches (and displays differently) branch updates that are
performed with a --force
Obviously, it's nothing that clever - it's the update hook I use on my
repositories but I've tried to keep it general, and tried to make the
output always relevant to the type of update.

UNIX reference time of 1970-01-01 00:00 is UTC timezone, not local time zone
I got bitten because in the UK (where one would expect 1970-01-01 00:00
to be UTC 0) some politicians decided to mess around with daylight
savings time from 1968 to 1971; it was permanently BST (+0100). That
means that on my computer the following is true:
It's actually saying (in my timezone) "1970-01-01 01:00:00 UTC" + $ts.
Clearly this is wrong. The UNIX epoch started at midnight UTC not 1am
UTC.
This leads to the tagged time in hooks--update being shown as one hour
earlier than the true tagged time (in my timezone). The problem would
be worse for other timezones. For a +1300 timezone on 1970-01-01, the
tagged time would be 13 hours earlier. Oops.
The solution is to force the reference time to UTC, which is what this
patch does. In my timezone:

Teach for-each-ref about a little language called Tcl.
Love it or hate it, some people actually still program in Tcl. Some
of those programs are meant for interfacing with Git. Programs such as
gitk and git-gui. It may be useful to have Tcl-safe output available
from for-each-ref, just like shell, Perl and Python already enjoy.
Thanks to Sergey Vlasov for pointing out the horrible flaws in the
first and second version of this patch, and steering me in the right
direction for Tcl value quoting.

git-push through git protocol
This allows pushing over the git:// protocol, and while it's not
authenticated, it could make sense from within a firewalled
setup where nobody but trusted internal people can reach the git
port. git-daemon is possibly easier and faster to set up in the
kind of situation where you set up git instead of CVS inside a
company.
"git-receive-pack" is disabled by default, so you need to enable it
explicitly by starting git-daemon with the "--enable=receive-pack"
command line argument, or by having your config enable it automatically.
