Fixes a small bug affecting push to remotes which use some sort of
multi-pass authentication. In particular the bug affected SabreDAV as
configured by Box.com [1].

It must be a weird server configuration for the bug to have survived
this long. Someone should write a test for it.

We create a directory that cannot be removed, confirm that
it cannot be removed, and then fix it like:

  chmod 0 foo &&
  test_must_fail git clean -d -f &&
  chmod 755 foo

If the middle step fails but leaves the directory (e.g., the
bug is that clean does not notice the failure), this
pollutes the test repo with an unremovable directory. Not
only does this cause further tests to fail, but it means
that "rm -rf" fails on the whole trash directory, and the
user has to intervene manually to even re-run the test script.

We can bump the "chmod 755" recovery to a test_when_finished
block to be sure that it always runs.

"git merge-base --octopus" used to leave cleaning up suboptimal
result to the caller, but now it does the clean-up itself.

* bm/merge-base-octopus-dedup:
  merge-base --octopus: reduce the result from get_octopus_merge_bases()
  merge-base: separate "--independent" codepath into its own helper

"git log --left-right A...B" lost the "leftness" of commits
reachable from A when A is a tag as a side effect of a recent
bugfix.  This is a regression in 1.8.4.x series.

* jc/revision-range-unpeel:
  revision: propagate flag bits from tags to pointees
  revision: mark contents of an uninteresting tree uninteresting

"git clone" would fail to clone from a repository that has a ref
directly under "refs/", e.g. "refs/stash", because different
validation paths do different things on such a refname.  Loosen the
client side's validation to allow such a ref.

* jk/allow-fetch-onelevel-refname:
  fetch-pack: do not filter out one-level refs

A handful of bugs around interpreting $branch@{upstream} notation
and its lookalike, when $branch part has interesting characters,
e.g. "@", and ":", have been fixed.

* jk/interpret-branch-name-fix:
  interpret_branch_name: find all possible @-marks
  interpret_branch_name: avoid @{upstream} past colon
  interpret_branch_name: always respect "namelen" parameter
  interpret_branch_name: rename "cp" variable to "at"
  interpret_branch_name: factor out upstream handling

A recent update to "git send-email" broke platforms where
/etc/ssl/certs/ directory exists but cannot be used as SSL_ca_path
(e.g. Fedora rawhide).

* rk/send-email-ssl-cert:
  send-email: /etc/ssl/certs/ directory may not be usable as ca_path

"git repack --max-pack-size=8g" stopped being parsed correctly when
the command was reimplemented in C.

* sb/repack-in-c:
  repack: propagate pack-objects options as strings
  repack: make parsed string options const-correct
  repack: fix typo in max-pack-size option
