Disable --follow in `git log` to avoid loading duplicate commit data in infinite scroll
`git` doesn't work properly when `--follow` and `--skip` are specified together. We could even be **omitting commits in the Web log** as a result.
Here are the gory details. Let's say you ran:
```
git log -n=5 --skip=2 README
```
This is the working case since it omits `--follow`. This is what happens:
1. `git` starts at `HEAD` and traverses down the tree until it finds the top-most commit relevant to README.
2. Once this is found, this commit is returned via `get_revision_1()`.
3. If the `skip_count` is positive, decrement and repeat step 2. Otherwise go onto step 4.
4. `show_log()` gets called with that commit.
5. Repeat step 1 until we have all five entries.
That's exactly what we want. What happens when you use `--follow`? You have to understand how step 1 is performed:
* When you specify a pathspec on the command-line (e.g. README), a flag `prune` [gets set here](https://github.com/git/git/blob/master/revision.c#L2351).
* If the `prune` flag is active, `get_commit_action()` determines whether the commit should be [scanned for matching paths](https://github.com/git/git/blob/master/revision.c#L2989).
* In the case of `--follow`, however, `prune` is [disabled here](https://github.com/git/git/blob/master/revision.c#L2350).
* As a result, a commit is never scanned for matching paths and therefore never pruned. `HEAD` will always get returned as the first commit, even if it's not relevant to the README.
* Making matters worse, the `--skip` in the example above would actually skip a every other entry after `HEAD` N times. If README were changed in these skipped commits, we would actually miss information!
Since git uses a matching algorithm to determine whether a file was renamed, I
believe `git` needs to generate a diff of each commit to do this and traverse
each commit one-by-one to do this. I think that's the rationale for disabling
the `prune` functionality since you can't just do a simple string comparison.

Fix identity and user retrieval when special characters are used
Fixes#4023
I also added tests to make sure the user with special characters in his name is returned correctly.
@rspeicher this probably should be added to 8.3 as a patch.

Fix Error 500 when doing a search in dashboard before visiting any project
If a search turned up an issue, under certain conditions you would see this error:
```

Confirmed this is issue still happens in GitLab 8.4, and it also happens on GitLab.com. Here's how to reproduce:
1. Login in a new browser.
2. Enter a search term on the top right that will land a hit in the "Issues" (e.g. GitLab).
3. Click on "Issues" tab. You should get an Error 500.
The issue is that @project isn't assigned to anything.

Fix method that ensures authentication token
Until now, `ensure_#{token_filed_name}!` method didn't persist new token in database.
This closes#4235.

Fix and test leave project display
The 'Leave this project' display on project page was broken. It was calling the method incorrectly, which returned `nil` and displayed nothing.
This fixes the display and also adds 2 different tests for it.

Sidekiq-cron configuration moved to gitlab.yml
When `sidekiq-cron` was introduced, jobs configuration where placed
in `schedule.yml` file.
As discussed in #3928, this is not desirable.
We moved it to `gitlab.yml`, exposing only the "cron" part of the configuration.

Allow account unlock via email
We see a lot of users get confused about what it means when your account gets
locked. Many try to reset their password and are still faced with a lockout.
With this change, users receive an email that allows them to unlock their
account immediately. The previous behavior where the account is auto-unlocked
after a time also still works.

Do not display project group/name when issue and MR are in same project
I noticed that things seem a bit cluttered for related merge requests
when displaying the group/project name for every item, even when it's
in the same project.
For merge requests that are in the same project as the issue we probably
don't need to display the 'in group / name' bit.

Add new branch and tag action to tree dropdown
Right now, creating a branch or tag is only possible on the project page dropdown or on the commits page. This merge request both actions to the tree header dropdown. Now all repository web actions are available in this one location, plus the existing ones. It makes the operations a lot more intuitive.
## Existing Tree/Repository dropdown:
