Newer versions of GNU grep is reported to be pickier when we feed a
non-ASCII input and break some Porcelain scripts.  As we know we do
not feed random binary file to our own sane_grep wrapper, allow us
to always pass "-a" by setting SANE_TEXT_GREP=-a Makefile variable
to work it around.

A replacement for contrib/workdir/git-new-workdir that does not
rely on symbolic links and make sharing of objects and refs safer

If $GIT_COMMON_DIR is set, $GIT_OBJECT_DIRECTORY should be
$GIT_COMMON_DIR/objects, not $GIT_DIR/objects. Just let rev-parse
--git-path handle it.

Calling basename on a argument that starts with a dash, like a login
shell, will result in an error. Add '--' before the argument so that
the argument is interpreted properly.

By default, Git used to set $LESS to -FRSX if $LESS was not set by
the user. The FRX flags actually make sense for Git (F and X because
sometimes the output Git pipes to less is short, and R because Git
pipes colored output). The S flag (chop long lines), on the other
hand, is not related to Git and is a matter of user preference. Git
should not decide for the user to change LESS's default.

More specifically, the S flag harms users who review untrusted code
within a pager, since a patch looking like:

    -old code;
    +new good code; [... lots of tabs ...] malicious code;

would appear identical to:

    -old code;
    +new good code;

Users who prefer the old behavior can still set the $LESS environment
variable to -FRSX explicitly, or set core.pager to 'less -S'.

The documentation in config.txt is made a bit longer to keep both an
example setting the 'S' flag (needed to recover the old behavior)
and an example showing how to unset a flag set by Git.

Just like we give a reasonable default for "less" via the LESS
environment variable, specify a reasonable default for "lv" via the
"LV" environment variable when spawning the pager.
