Commit 4337b58 (do not write null sha1s to on-disk index,
2012-07-28) added a safety check preventing git from writing
null sha1s into the index. The intent was to catch errors in
other parts of the code that might let such an entry slip
into the index (or worse, a tree).
Some existing repositories may have invalid trees that
contain null sha1s already, though. Until 4337b58, a common
way to clean this up would be to use git-filter-branch's
index-filter to repair such broken entries. That now fails
when filter-branch tries to write out the index.
Introduce a GIT_ALLOW_NULL_SHA1 environment variable to
relax this check and make it easier to recover from such a
history.
It is tempting to not involve filter-branch in this commit
at all, and instead require the user to manually invoke
GIT_ALLOW_NULL_SHA1=1 git filter-branch ...
to perform an index-filter on a history with trees with null
sha1s. That would be slightly safer, but requires some
specialized knowledge from the user. So let's set the
GIT_ALLOW_NULL_SHA1 variable automatically when checking out
the to-be-filtered trees. Advice on using filter-branch to
remove such entries already exists on places like
stackoverflow, and this patch makes it Just Work again on
recent versions of git.
Further commands that touch the index will still notice and
fail, unless they actually remove the broken entries. A
filter-branch whose filters do not touch the index at all
will not error out (since we complain of the null sha1 only
on writing, not when making a tree out of the index), but
this is acceptable, as we still print a loud warning, so the
problem is unlikely to go unnoticed.

a469a10193 (silence some -Wuninitialized false positives;
2012-12-15) triggered "unused value" warnings when the return value of
opterror() and several other error-related functions was not used.
5ded807f7c (fix clang -Wunused-value warnings for error functions;
2013-01-16) applied a fix by adding #if !defined(__clang__) in cache.h
and git-compat-util.h, but misspelled it as #if !defined(clang) in
parse-options.h. Fix this.
This mistake went unnoticed because existing callers of opterror()
utilize its return value. 1158826394 (parse-options: add
OPT_CMDMODE(); 2013-07-30), however, adds a new invocation of opterror()
which ignores the return value, thus triggering the "unused value"
warning.

$ git log --encoding
fatal: Option '--encoding' requires a value
$ git rev-list --encoding
fatal: Option '--encoding' requires a value
The argument to --encoding has always been mandatory. Unfortunately
manpages like git-rev-list(1), git-log(1), and git-show(1) have
described the option's syntax as "--encoding[=<encoding>]" since it
was first documented. Clarify by removing the extra brackets.
