Log Message:
Changes 1.7.11.3
* The error message from "git push $there :bogo" (and its equivalent
  "git push $there --delete bogo") mentioned that we tried and failed
  to guess what ref is being deleted based on the LHS of the refspec,
  which we don't.
* A handful of files and directories we create had tighter than
  necessary permission bits when the user wanted to have group
  writability (e.g. by setting "umask 002").
* "commit --amend" used to refuse amending a commit with an empty log
  message, with or without "--allow-empty-message".
* "git commit --amend --only --" was meant to allow "Clever" people to
  rewrite the commit message without making any change even when they
  have already changes for the next commit added to their index, but
  it never worked as advertised since it was introduced in 1.3.0 era.
* Even though the index can record pathnames longer than 1<<12 bytes,
  in some places we were not comparing them in full, potentially
  replacing index entries instead of adding.
* "git show"'s auto-walking behaviour was an unreliable and
  unpredictable hack; it now behaves just like "git log" does when it
  walks.
* "git diff", "git status" and anything that internally uses the
  comparison machinery was utterly broken when the difference
  involved a file with "-" as its name.  This was due to the way "git
  diff --no-index" was incorrectly bolted on to the system, making
  any comparison that involves a file "-" at the root level
  incorrectly read from the standard input.
* We did not have test to make sure "git rebase" without extra options
  filters out an empty commit in the original history.
* "git fast-export" produced an input stream for fast-import without
  properly quoting pathnames when they contain SPs in them.
* "git checkout --detach", when you are still on an unborn branch,
  should be forbidden, but it wasn't.
* Some implementations of Perl terminates "lines" with CRLF even when
  the script is operating on just a sequence of bytes.  Make sure to
  use "$PERL_PATH", the version of Perl the user told Git to use, in
  our tests to avoid unnecessary breakages in tests.
Also contains minor typofixes and documentation updates.
