When we're looking to update a tag, we can't stop if the tag auto-follow
rules don't say to update it. The tag might still match the refspec we
were given.
While we download the remote's remote-tracking branches, we don't
download the tag. This points to the tag auto-follow rules interfering
with the refspec.
When curl uses a proxy, it will only use Basic unless we prompt it to
try to use the most secure on it has available.
This is something which git did recently, and it seems like a good idea.
With Visual Studio versions 2008 and older they ignore the full path to files and only check
the basename of the file to find a collision. Additionally, having duplicate basenames can break
other build tools like GYP.

Allow restoring a previously captured oom error, by
detecting when the captured message pointer points to the
static oom error message. This means there is no need
to strdup the message in giterr_detach.
Error messages that are detached are assumed to be dynamically
allocated. Passing a pointer to the static oom error message
can cause an attempt to free the static buffer later. This change
checks if the oom error message is about to be detached and detaches
a copy instead.
When we pass the path of a repository to `_bypath()`, we should behave
like git and stage it as a `_COMMIT` regardless of whether it is
registered a a submodule.
Instead of allocating a brand new buffer for each error string we want
to store, we can use a per-thread buffer to store the error string and
re-use the underlying storage. We already use the buffer to format the
string, so this mostly makes that more direct.
An error here will typically mean that the directory was removed between
the time we iterated the parent and the time we wanted to visit it in
which case we should ignore it.
Other kinds of errors such as permissions (or transient errors) also
better dealt with by pretending we didn't see it.
When we have an error renaming the lockfile, we need to make sure
that we remove it upon cleanup. For this, we need to keep track of
whether we opened the file and whether the rename succeeded.
If we did create the lockfile but the rename did not succeed, we
remove the lockfile. This won't protect against all errors, but
the most common ones (target file is open) does get handled.
git_fetch_options was missing from the API docs because it lacked a
documentation comment above the struct declaration.
I used the git_checkout_options docstring as a template.
Also fixes a typo in git_remote_prune_refs (remote, not reamote).
