Since large quilt trees like -mm can easily have patches
without clear authorship information, add a --dry-run
option to make the problem patches easy to find.
Importing a quilt patch series into git is not very difficult
but parsing the patch descriptions and all of the other
minutia take a bit of effort to get right, so this automates it.
Since git and quilt complement each other it makes sense
to make it easy to go back and forth between the two.
If a patch is encountered that it cannot derive the author
from the user is asked.

"git add Documentation/" when Documentation directory exists
does not barf (as it should not), but "git add ." barfed when it
did not add anything. This was because we checked for the path
prefix ("Documentation/" in the former case, and an empty string
in the latter case) for existence, and lstat("", &st) would say
"Huh?".
Gitk wants to use git-diff-tree as a filter to tell it which ids from
a given list affect a set of files or directories. We don't want to
fork and exec a new git-diff-tree process for each batch of ids, since
there could be a lot of relatively small batches. For example, a
batch could contain as many ids as fit in gitk's headline display
window, i.e. 20 or so, and we would be processing a new batch every
time the user scrolls that window.
The --stdin flag to git-diff-tree is suitable for this, but the main
difficulty is that the output of git-diff-tree gets buffered and
doesn't get sent until the buffer is full.
This provides a way to get git-diff-tree to flush its output buffers.
If a blank line is supplied on git-diff-tree's standard input, it will
flush its output buffers and then accept further input.

The log parser was only ever matching the last log record due to
calling strtoul on "> 1136091609" rather than " 1136091609". Also
once a match for '@' has been found after the name of the ref there
is no point in looking for another '@' within the remaining text.
Extended sha1 expressions may now include date specifications
which indicate a point in time within the local repository's
history. If the ref indicated to the left of '@' has a log in
$GIT_DIR/logs/<ref> then the value of the ref at the time indicated
by the specification is obtained from the ref's log.

If config parameter core.logAllRefUpdates is true or the log
file already exists then append a line to ".git/logs/refs/<ref>"
whenever git-update-ref <ref> is executed. Each log line contains
the following information:
oldsha1 <SP> newsha1 <SP> committer <LF>
where committer is the current user, date, time and timezone in
the standard GIT ident format. If the caller is unable to append
to the log file then git-update-ref will fail without updating <ref>.
An optional message may be included in the log line with the -m flag.

This conversion also adds the '-m' switch to update-ref allowing
the caller to record why the ref is changing. At present this is
merely copied down into the ref_lock API.

Created 'struct ref_lock' to contain the data necessary to perform
a ref update. This change improves writing a ref as the file names
are generated only once (rather than twice) and supports following
symrefs (up to the maximum depth). Further the ref_lock structure
provides room to extend the update API with ref logging.

apply --cached: do not check newly added file in the working tree
The --cached mode does not deal with the working tree, so we
should not check it with lstat. An earlier code omitted the
call to lstat but forgot to omit the check for the errno.
Of course, it still ignores the fact that not all grep's support some of
the flags like -F/-L/-A/-C etc, but for those cases, the external grep
itself will happily just say "unrecognized option -F" or similar.
So with this change, "git grep" should handle all the flags the native
grep handles, which is really quite fine. We don't _need_ to expose
anything more, and if you do want our extensions, you can get them with
"--uncached" and an up-to-date index.
No configuration necessary, and we automatically take advantage of any
native grep we have, if possible.

Some implementations do not know what to do with -H; define
NO_H_OPTION_IN_GREP when you build git if your grep lacks -H.
Most of the time, it can be worked around by prepending
/dev/null to the argument list, but that causes -L and -c to
slightly misbehave (they both expose /dev/null is given), so
when these options are given, do not run external grep that does
not understand -H.
Clean up git-ls-file directory walking library interface
This moves the code to add the per-directory ignore files for the base
directory into the library routine.
That not only allows us to turn the function push_exclude_per_directory()
static again, it also simplifies the library interface a lot (the caller
no longer needs to worry about any of the per-directory exclude files at
all).

This moves the core directory traversal and filename exclusion logic
into the general git library, making it available for other users
directly.
If we ever want to do "git commit" or "git add" as a built-in (and we
do), we want to be able to handle most of git-ls-files as a library.
NOTE! Not all of git-ls-files is libified by this. The index matching
and pathspec prefix calculation is still in ls-files.c, but this is a
big part of it.

read-tree -m -u: do not overwrite or remove untracked working tree files.
When a merge results in a creation of a path that did not exist
in HEAD, and if you already have that path on the working tree,
because the index has not been told about the working tree file,
read-tree happily removes it. The issue was brought up by Santi
Béjar on the list.
This provides a linear decrement on the penalty related to delta depth
instead of being an 1/x function. With this another 5% reduction is
observed on packs for both the GIT repo and the Linux kernel repo, as
well as fixing a pack size regression in another sample repo I have.

Fix pack-index issue on 64-bit platforms a bit more portably.
Apparently <stdint.h> is not enough for uint32_t on OpenBSD; use
"unsigned int" -- hopefully that would stay 32-bit on every
platform we care about, at least until we update the pack-index
file format.
Our sha1 routines optimized for architectures use uint32_t and
expects '#include <stdint.h>' to be enough, so OpenBSD on arm or
ppc might have similar issues down the road, I dunno.
Avoid creating a delta index for objects with maximum depth since they
are not going to be used as delta base anyway. This also reduce peak
memory usage slightly as the current object's delta index is not useful
until the next object in the loop is considered for deltification. This
saves a bit more than 1% on CPU usage.

simple euristic for further free packing improvements
Given that the early eviction of objects with maximum delta depth
may exhibit bad packing on its own, why not considering a bias against
deep base objects in try_delta() to mitigate that bad behavior.
This patch adjust the MAX_size allowed for a delta based on the depth of
the base object as well as enabling the early eviction of max depth
objects from the object window. When used separately, those two things
produce slightly better and much worse results respectively. But their
combined effect is a surprising significant packing improvement.
With this really simple patch the GIT repo gets nearly 15% smaller, and
the Linux kernel repo about 5% smaller, with no significantly measurable
CPU usage difference.

send-email: address expansion for common mailers
diffstat rename squashing fix.
read-tree -u one-way merge fix to check out locally modified paths.
The "-u" flag means "update the working tree files", but to
other types of merges, it also implies "I want to keep my local
changes" -- because they prevent local changes from getting lost
by using verify_uptodate. The one-way merge is different from
other merges in that its purpose is opposite of doing something
else while keeping unrelated local changes. The point of
one-way merge is to nuke local changes. So while it feels
somewhat wrong that this actively loses local changes, it is the
right thing to do.
builtin-grep: use external grep when we can take advantage of it
It's not perfect, but it gets the "git grep some-random-string" down to
the good old half-a-second range for the kernel.
It should convert more of the argument flags for "grep", that should be
trivial to expand (I did a few just as an example). It should also bother
to try to return the right "hit" value (which it doesn't, right now - the
code is kind of there, but I didn't actually bother to do it _right_).
Also, right now it _just_ limits by number of arguments, but it should
also strictly speaking limit by total argument size (ie add up the length
of the filenames, and do the "exec_grep()" flush call if it's bigger than
some random value like 32kB).
But I think that it's _conceptually_ doing all the right things, and it
seems to work. So maybe somebody else can do some of the final polish.
