The Net::LDAP::Filter.escape function can not be used to escape the DN name because the backslash is required to escape special chars in the DN name. This leads to the error message "Access denied for your LDAP account." and prevents the user from logging in to gitlab.

Example DN: 
CN=Test\, User,OU=Organization,DC=Company
CN=Test User,OU=Organization,DC=Company

Performance improvements

* Cache project branches and tags into variables
* Cache lookup results into hash to prevent repeating same requests to git repo
* Cache head commit and head tree

Fix link in patch update guide

Use an absolute URL to gitlab.com's master branch instead of a relative URL on the local instance.  Also change which words are include in the anchor element, since the Markdown parser doesn't seem to like backticks inside the link text.

Location field in user profile

Make issue and merge request sidebar more compact

Update merge_status state to allow more transitions

Previously you could only transition from the unchecked state to one of the others. This meant that the mark_as_unmerged call in AutoMergeService would rarily be able to actually transition the state. As it would usually have already been set to can_be_merged before it hit that service.

Spec and Spinach tests have been run locally and all pass.
