Functions to quote and unquote pathnames in C-style.
Following the list discussion, define two functions, quote_c_style and
unquote_c_style, to help adopting the proposed way for quoting funny
pathname letters for GNU patch. The rule is described in:
Currently we do not support the leading '!', but we probably should
barf upon seeing it. Rule B4. is interpreted to require always 3
octal digits in \XYZ notation.
This will be removed when merging the second phase of Linus' "Create
object subdirectories on demand" change anyway, but the code to
recreate the empty .git/objects/??/ directory was confused.
Deb packaging claim we depend on patch, but I think we use git-apply
where it matters. When a patch does not apply with git-apply, using
GNU patch still is helpful sometimes. So demote it from "Depends" to
"Suggests".
This patch cleans out all sparse warnings from http-fetch.c
I'm a bit uncomfortable with adding extra #ifdefs to avoid either
'mixing declaration with code' or 'unused variable' warnings, but I
figured that since those functions are already littered with #ifdefs I
might just get away with it. Comments?

whatchanged: document -m option from git-diff-tree.
The documentation for git-whatchanged is meant to describe only
the most frequently used options from git-diff-tree. Because "why
doesn't it show merges" was asked more than once, we'd better
describe '-m' option there.
Show peeled onion from upload-pack and server-info.
This updates git-ls-remote to show SHA1 names of objects that are
referred by tags, in the "ref^{}" notation.
This would make git-findtags (without -t flag) almost trivial.
git-peek-remote . |
sed -ne "s:^$target "'refs/tags/\(.*\)^{}$:\1:p'
Also Pasky could do:
git-ls-remote --tags $remote |
sed -ne 's:\( refs/tags/.*\)^{}$:\1:p'
to find out what object each of the remote tags refers to, and
if he has one locally, run "git-fetch $remote tag $tagname" to
automatically catch up with the upstream tags.
Existing "tagname^0" notation means "dereference tag zero or more
times until you cannot dereference it anymore, and make sure it is a
commit -- otherwise barf". But tags do not necessarily reference
commit objects.
This commit introduces a bit more generalized notation, "ref^{type}".
Existing "ref^0" is a shorthand for "ref^{commit}". If the type
is empty, it just dereferences tags until it hits a non-tag object.
With this, "git-rev-parse --verify 'junio-gpg-pub^{}'" shows the blob
object name -- there is no need to manually read the tag object and
find out the object name anymore.
"git-rev-parse --verify 'HEAD^{tree}'" can be used to find out the
tree object name of the HEAD commit.
This allows the remote side (most notably, upload-pack) to show
additional information without affecting the downloader. Peek-remote
does not ignore them -- this is to make it useful for Pasky's
automatic tag following.
Refuse to create funny refs in clone-pack, git-fetch and receive-pack.
Using git-check-ref-format, make sure we do not create refs with
funny names when cloning from elsewhere (clone-pack), fast forwarding
local heads (git-fetch), or somebody pushes into us (receive-pack).
Update check_ref_format() function to reject ref names that:
* has a path component that begins with a ".", or
* has a double dots "..", or
* has ASCII control character, "~", "^", ":" or SP, anywhere, or
* ends with a "/".
Use it in 'git-checkout -b', 'git-branch', and 'git-tag' to make sure
that newly created refs are well-formed.

No need to hate it. Here comes the rebased patch, and this time, I
actually tested it a bit.
Do our own ctype.h, just to get the sane semantics: we want
locale-independence, _and_ we want the right signed behaviour. Plus we
only use a very small subset of ctype.h anyway (isspace, isalpha,
isdigit and isalnum).
git-http-fetch: Remove size limit for objects/info/{packs,alternates}

objects/info/alternates. Also add missing free() calls for these
buffers.

This enhances set of revs you can give format-patch.
Originally, format-patch took either one rev, or two revs:
format-patch rev1
format-patch rev1 rev2
The first format was a short-hand for "format-patch rev1 HEAD"
(i.e. rev2==HEAD). What this meant was to find commits that are
in branch rev2 that has not been merged to branch rev1.
The above notation is still supported, but now it takes sequence
of "from1..to1 from2..to2 ...". In short, the second format has
become a short-hand for "format-patch rev1..rev2". Commits in
to1 but not in from1, to2 but not in from2, ... are formatted as
emailable patches.
With this, cherry-picking from other branch can be written as:
which is generally faster than traditional cherry-pick (which
always did 3-way merge) if patches apply cleanly, and still
falls back on 3-way merge if some of them do not.
This uses the new "--local" flag to git-pack-objects. It currently only
makes a difference together with "-a", since a normal incremental repack
won't pack any packed objects at all (whether local or remote).
Eventually, it might end up skipping any objects that aren't local to
the current object directory, but for now it only knows to skip packed
objects.

This adds the "--local" flag to git-pack-objects, which acts like
"--incremental", except that instead of ignoring all packed objects, it
only ignores objects that are packed and in an alternate object tree.
As a result, it effectively only does a local re-pack: any remote-packed
objects will stay in the alternate object directories.

This changes the generation of hash packfiles have in their names, from
"hash of object names as fed to us" to "hash of object names in the
resulting pack, in the order they appear in the index file". The new
"git-index-pack" command is taught to output the computed hash value
to its standard output.
With this, we can store downloaded pack in a temporary file without
knowing its final name, run git-index-pack to generate idx for it
while finding out its final name, and then rename the pack and idx to
their final names.
git-index-pack builds a pack index file for an existing packed
archive. With this utility a packed archive which was transferred
without the corresponding pack index can be added to objects/pack/
without repacking.

When feeding patches from standard input, and --interactive is specified,
quit, so that the user can re-run the command, instead of infinitely
looping.
git-fetch --tags: deal with tags with spaces in them.
"git-fetch --tags" can get confused with tags with spaces in their names,
it used to use shell IFS to split the list of tags and also used curl
which insists the URL to be escaped. Fix it so it can work with Martin's
moodle repository http://locke.catalyst.net.nz/git/moodle.git/.
We still reserve characters like leading plus-sign '+' and colon
':' anywhere to represent refspec src-dst pair, and obviously we
cannot use LF (that terminates Pull: line in .git/remotes
files), but now you can have spaces with this patch.
curl_escape ought to do this, but we should not let it quote
slashes (nobody said refs/tags cannot have subdirectories), so
we roll our own safer version. With this, the last part of
git-clone from Martin's moodle repository that used to fail now
works, which reads:

Use git config file for committer name and email info
This starts using the "user.name" and "user.email" config variables if
they exist as the default name and email when committing. This means
that you don't have to use the GIT_COMMITTER_EMAIL environment variable
to override your email - you can just edit the config file instead.
The patch looks bigger than it is because it makes the default name and
email information non-static and renames it appropriately. And it moves
the common git environment variables into a new library file, so that
you can link against libgit.a and get the git environment without having
to link in zlib and libcrypt.
In short, most of it is renaming and moving, the real change core is
just a few new lines in "git_default_config()" that copies the user
config values to the new base.
It also changes "git-var -l" to list the config variables.

With "[core] filemode = false", you can tell git to ignore
differences in the working tree file only in executable bit.
* "git-update-index --refresh" does not say "needs update" if index
entry and working tree file differs only in executable bit.
* "git-update-index" on an existing path takes executable bit
from the existing index entry, if the path and index entry are
both regular files.
* "git-diff-files" and "git-diff-index" without --cached flag
pretend the path on the filesystem has the same executable
bit as the existing index entry, if the path and index entry
are both regular files.
If you are on a filesystem with unreliable mode bits, you may need to
force the executable bit after registering the path in the index.
* "git-update-index --chmod=+x foo" flips the executable bit of the
index file entry for path "foo" on. Use "--chmod=-x" to flip it
off.
Note that --chmod only works in index file and does not look at nor
update the working tree.
So if you are on a filesystem and do not have working executable bit,
you would do:
1. set the appropriate .git/config option;
2. "git-update-index --add new-file.c"
3. "git-ls-files --stage new-file.c" to see if it has the desired
mode bits. If not, e.g. to drop executable bit picked up from the
filesystem, say "git-update-index --chmod=-x new-file.c".
I had meant to disallow unknown escape characters in the config file
parser, but instead an unknown escaped character would silently pass
through as itself. That's correct for some cases (notably '\' itself), but
wasn't correct in general.
This fixes it, and makes the parser write a nice error message if the
config file contains bogus escaped characters.

Some SVN repositories that are accessible through HTTP don't like when I
retrieve files using SVN methods ("internal server error").
Therefore, I added an option to get the contents using (persistent) HTTP
directly. This also reduces round-trip time, from two or three requests
down to one.
The http commit walker cannot use the same temporary file
creation code because it needs to use predictable temporary
filename for partial fetch continuation purposes, but the code
to move the temporary file to the final location should be
usable from the ordinary object creation codepath.
Export move_temp_to_file from sha1_file.c and use it, while
losing the custom relink_or_rename function from http-fetch.c.
Also the temporary object file creation part needs to make sure
the leading path exists, in preparation of the really lazy
fan-out directory creation.
Restore functionality to allow proxies to cache objects
The parallel request changes didn't properly implement the previous patch to
allow caching of retrieved objects by proxy servers. Restore the previous
functionality such that by default requests include the "Pragma: no-cache"
header, and this header is removed on requests for pack indexes, packs, and
objects.

queue for processing; fetch_object keeps the active queue moving

Requests for objects that are not prefetched are also processed via the

This is a first cut at a very simple parser for a git config file.
The format of the file is a simple ini-file like thing, with simple
variable/value pairs. You can (and should) make the variables have a
simple single-level scope, ie a valid file looks something like this:
#
# This is the config file, and
# a '#' or ';' character indicates
# a comment
#
which parses into three variables: "core.filemode" is associated with the
string "false", and "diff.external" gets the appropriate quoted value.
Right now we only react to one variable: "core.filemode" is a boolean that
decides if we should care about the 0100 (user-execute) bit of the stat
information. Even that is just a parsing demonstration - this doesn't
actually implement that st_mode compare logic itself.
Different programs can react to different config options, although they
should always fall back to calling "git_default_config()" on any config
option name that they don't recognize.

Only "normal" SVN repositories (with single trunk/, branches/, and tags/
