Use -fvisibility=hidden in GCC builds

mergebase: enhance test code coverage

iterator: prevent git_iterator_free() from segfaulting when being passed a NULL iterator

Improve repo initialization to be more like git

object: make git_object_lookup() return GIT_ENOTFOUND - The sequel

object: make git_object_lookup() return GIT_ENOTFOUND when searching for an existing object by specifying an incorrect type

This fix complements cb0ce16b and cover the following additional use cases

 - retrieving an object which has been previously searched, found and cached
 - retrieving an object through an non ambiguous abbreviated id

Use giterr_last() and make sure it's not NULL.

Fix MSVC compilation issue

    exp() is already defined in math.h. This leads to LMSVC complaining

    ..\..\libgit2\tests-clar\diff\blob.c(5): error C2365: 'exp' : redefinition; previous definition was 'function'

    Renaming the variable fixes this issue.

This adds a bunch of template files to the initialization for
hooks, info/exclude, and description.  This makes our initialized
repo look more like core gits.

util: Fix git__isspace() implementation

These objects aren't considered as being advertised, so asking for
them will cause the remote end to close the connection. This makes the
checking in update_tips() unnecessary, because they don't get inserted
in the list.

Skip them for now. Eventually we might want to filter these out
earler.

The characters <space>, <form-feed>, <newline>, <carriage-return>, <tab>, and <vertical-tab> are part of the "space" definition.

Windows gets upset if we rename a file with an open descriptor.

Locale-aware bullshit bitting my ass again yo

Add support for diffing index with no HEAD

When a repo is first created, there is no HEAD yet and attempting
to diff files in the index was showing nothing because a tree
iterator could not be constructed.  This adds an "empty" iterator
and falls back on that when the head cannot be looked up.

Clean commit and tag messages

Enhancing the blob diffing experience

Add git_remote_add() and change signature for _new()

Add a fetch refspec arguemnt and make the arguments (name, url,
refspec), as that order makes more sense.

Helper function to create a remote with the default settings

Change the order and set a NULL so we don't try to access freed memory
in case of an error.

Improve the interop with bindings

Clear the error in pkt when we notice that the remote is starting to
send the packfile.

Fix the format string for Windows networking errors.

repository: ensure git_repository_discover() returns ENOTFOUND when unable to find a repository given the constraints
