Make !pattern in .gitattributes non-fatal
Before 82dce99 (attr: more matching optimizations from .gitignore,
2012-10-15), .gitattributes did not have any special treatment of a
leading '!'. The docs, however, always said
The rules how the pattern matches paths are the same as in
`.gitignore` files; see linkgit:gitignore[5].
By those rules, leading '!' means pattern negation. So 82dce99
correctly determined that this kind of line makes no sense and should
be disallowed.
However, users who actually had a rule for files starting with a '!'
are in a bad position: before 82dce99 '!' matched that literal
character, so it is conceivable that users have .gitattributes with
such lines in them. After 82dce99 the unescaped version was
disallowed in such a way that git outright refuses to run(!) most
commands in the presence of such a .gitattributes. It therefore
becomes very hard to fix, let alone work with, such repositories.
Let's at least allow the users to fix their repos: change the fatal
error into a warning.

Makefile: avoid infinite loop on configure.ac change
If you are using autoconf and change the configure.ac, the
Makefile will notice that config.status is older than
configure.ac, and will attempt to rebuild and re-run the
configure script to pick up your changes. The first step in
doing so is to run "make configure". Unfortunately, this
tries to include config.mak.autogen, which depends on
config.status, which depends on configure.ac; so we must
rebuild config.status. Which leads to us running "make
configure", and so on.
It's easy to demonstrate with:
make configure
./configure
touch configure.ac
make
We can break this cycle by not re-invoking make to build
"configure", and instead just putting its rules inline into
our config.status rebuild procedure. We can avoid a copy by
factoring the rules into a make variable.

Modify this algorithm, using an approach suggested in
