Thanks. I use the cmake branch because I prefer "real" history over one
huge commit.

And I already love it. Thanks for all the work!

>From a first short glance, I wonder if you should mark a lot more
options as advanced options, like the paths (e.g., SHELL_PATH,
LESS_PATH, GETTEXT_MSGFMT_EXECUTABLE, etc.) and probably also things
like GIT_USER_AGENT. If you use a configuration tool like ccmake, you
see a lot of options and many of them are not relevant to the average user.

I also think some variables have weird names, for example, POLL, PREAD,
MMAP should be USE_POLL, USE_PREAD, USE_MMAP, respectively... or even
USE_*_SYSCALL, I don't know.

By the way, regarding up-to-dateness, you are missing these recent
changes that have been merged to master:

  edb6a17c36 Makefile: NO_OPENSSL=1 should no longer imply BLK_SHA1=1
  3f824e91c8 t/Makefile: introduce TEST_SHELL_PATH

(which is not surprising)
