Merge branch 'jt/fetch-pack-loosen-validation-with-packfile-uri'

Bugfix for "git fetch" when the packfile URI capability is in use.

* jt/fetch-pack-loosen-validation-with-packfile-uri:
  fetch-pack: make packfile URIs work with transfer.fsckobjects

-COMMON DIFF OPTIONS
--------------------
+DIFF FORMATTING
+---------------
+
+By default, `git log` does not generate any diff output. The options
+below can be used to show the changes made by each commit.
+
+Note that unless one of `-c`, `--cc`, or `-m` is given, merge commits
+will never show a diff, even if a diff format like `--patch` is
+selected, nor will they match search options like `-S`. The exception is
+when `--first-parent` is in use, in which merges are treated like normal
+single-parent commits (this can be overridden by providing a
+combined-diff option or with `--no-diff-merges`).
+
+-c::
+	With this option, diff output for a merge commit
+	shows the differences from each of the parents to the merge result
+	simultaneously instead of showing pairwise diff between a parent
+	and the result one at a time. Furthermore, it lists only files
+	which were modified from all parents.
+
+--cc::
+	This flag implies the `-c` option and further compresses the
+	patch output by omitting uninteresting hunks whose contents in
+	the parents have only two variants and the merge result picks
+	one of them without modification.
+
+--combined-all-paths::
+	This flag causes combined diffs (used for merge commits) to
+	list the name of the file from all parents.  It thus only has
+	effect when -c or --cc are specified, and is likely only
+	useful if filename changes are detected (i.e. when either
+	rename or copy detection have been requested).
+
+-m::
+	This flag makes the merge commits show the full diff like
+	regular commits; for each merge parent, a separate log entry
+	and diff is generated. An exception is that only diff against
+	the first parent is shown when `--first-parent` option is given;
+	in that case, the output represents the changes the merge
+	brought _into_ the then-current branch.
+
+--diff-merges=off::
+--no-diff-merges::
+	Disable output of diffs for merge commits (default). Useful to
+	override `-m`, `-c`, or `--cc`.

-Diff Formatting
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
-Listed below are options that control the formatting of diff output.
-Some of them are specific to linkgit:git-rev-list[1], however other diff
-options may be given. See linkgit:git-diff-files[1] for more options.
-
--c::
-	With this option, diff output for a merge commit
-	shows the differences from each of the parents to the merge result
-	simultaneously instead of showing pairwise diff between a parent
-	and the result one at a time. Furthermore, it lists only files
-	which were modified from all parents.
-
---cc::
-	This flag implies the `-c` option and further compresses the
-	patch output by omitting uninteresting hunks whose contents in
-	the parents have only two variants and the merge result picks
-	one of them without modification.
-
---combined-all-paths::
-	This flag causes combined diffs (used for merge commits) to
-	list the name of the file from all parents.  It thus only has
-	effect when -c or --cc are specified, and is likely only
-	useful if filename changes are detected (i.e. when either
-	rename or copy detection have been requested).
-
--m::
-	This flag makes the merge commits show the full diff like
-	regular commits; for each merge parent, a separate log entry
-	and diff is generated. An exception is that only diff against
-	the first parent is shown when `--first-parent` option is given;
-	in that case, the output represents the changes the merge
-	brought _into_ the then-current branch.
-
--r::
-	Show recursive diffs.
-
--t::
-	Show the tree objects in the diff output. This implies `-r`.

 # Notes: In commit A, directory z got renamed to y.  In commit B, directory z
 #        did NOT get renamed; the directory is still present; instead it is
 #        considered to have just renamed a subset of paths in directory z
-#        elsewhere.  Therefore, the directory rename done in commit A to z/
-#        applies to z/d and maps it to y/d.
+#        elsewhere.  However, this is much like testcase 6b (where commit B
+#        moves all the original paths out of z/ but opted to keep d
+#        within z/).  This makes it hard to judge where d should end up.
 #
 #        It's possible that users would get confused about this, but what
-#        should we do instead?  Silently leaving at z/d seems just as bad or
-#        maybe even worse.  Perhaps we could print a big warning about z/d
-#        and how we're moving to y/d in this case, but when I started thinking
-#        about the ramifications of doing that, I didn't know how to rule out
-#        that opening other weird edge and corner cases so I just punted.
+#        should we do instead?  It's not at all clear to me whether z/d or
+#        y/d or something else is a better resolution here, and other cases
+#        start getting really tricky, so I just picked one.
