jQuery 2.0.3 源碼分析之core（一）整體架構_jquery

    // Handle a deep copy situation
    if ( typeof target === "boolean" ) {    // 如果第一个参数为true，即 jQuery.extend( true, obj1, obj2 ); 的情况
        deep = target;  // 此时target是true
        target = arguments[1] || {};    // target改为 obj1
        // skip the boolean and the target
        i = 2;
    }

    // Handle case when target is a string or something (possible in deep copy)
    if ( typeof target !== "object" && !jQuery.isFunction(target) ) {  // 处理奇怪的情况，比如 jQuery.extend( 'hello' , {nick: 'casper})~~
        target = {};
    }

    // extend jQuery itself if only one argument is passed
    if ( length === i ) {   // 处理这种情况 jQuery.extend(obj)，或 jQuery.fn.extend( obj )
        target = this;  // jQuery.extend时，this指的是jQuery；jQuery.fn.extend时，this指的是jQuery.fn
        --i;
    }

    for ( ; i < length; i++ ) {
        // Only deal with non-null/undefined values
        if ( (options = arguments[ i ]) != null ) { // 比如 jQuery.extend( obj1, obj2, obj3, ojb4 )，options则为 obj2、obj3...
            // Extend the base object
            for ( name in options ) {
                src = target[ name ];
                copy = options[ name ];

                // Prevent never-ending loop
                if ( target === copy ) {    // 防止自引用，不赘述
                    continue;
                }

                // Recurse if we're merging plain objects or arrays
                // 如果是深拷贝，且被拷贝的属性值本身是个对象
