git-gui: Simplified format of geometry configuration.
The gui.geometry config value was starting to contain
the odd string \\{ as part of its value due to the
way the Tcl lists were being supplied to git repo-config.
Now we write out only three values: the overall window
geomtry, the y position of the horizontal sash, and
the x position of the vertical sash. All other data is
skipped, which makes the gui.geometry value simpler.
While debugging this I noticed that the save_my_config
procedure was being invoked multiple times during exit
due to do_quit getting invoked over and over again. So
now we set a flag in do_quit and don't perform any of our
"at exit" type of logic if we've already been through the
do_quit procedure once.

Added an extra blank line between the first line of each error message

Rather than drawing our own toplevel for error messages we really
should just use the the native tk_messageBox command to display
any error messages.
Major benefits for doing so are:
- automatically centers over main window;
- less code required on our part in git-gui;
- includes a nifty error icon on most systems;
- better fits the look-and-feel of the operating system.

git-gui: Use catch rather than array names to check file.
When we reshow the current diff file it can be faster to just fetch

[array names -exact] is O(n) in the number of files.

git-gui: Efficiently update the UI after committing.
When we commit we know that whatever was in the index went as part
of the commit. Since we generally assume that the user does not
update the index except through our user interface we can be reasonably
certain that any file which was marked as A/M/D in the index will have
had that A/M/D state changed to an _ (not different) by the commit.
We can use this knowledge to update the user interface post commit
by simply updating the index part of the file state of all files whose
index state was A/M/D to _ and then removing any file memory any which
wound up with a final state of __ (not different anywhere). Finally we
redraw the file lists and update the diff view.

git-gui: Correctly handle files containing LF in their name.
If we are given a file whose path name contains an LF (\n) we now

text fields don't start to span multiple lines just to display one
file, and it keeps the line numbers correct within the file lists.

git-gui: Always indicate the file in the diff viewer.
When we did a rescan to update the file lists we lost the tag which
indicated which file was currently in the diff viewer. This occurs
because we delete every line from the two file list boxes (thus
removing the tag) and then redisplay the diff in the diff viewer
but then fail to restore the tag in the file list.
Now we restore that tag by searching for the file in the file lists
and adding the tag back when the diff viewer displays something.
We also no longer obtain the file path directly from the file list
text box. Instead we now keep two Tcl lists, one for each file list,
holding the file names in sorted order. These lists can be searched
with the native [lsearch -sorted] operation (which should be faster
than our crude bsearch) or can be quickly accessed by index to return
the file path. This should help make things safer should we ever be
given a file name which contains an LF within it (as that would span
two lines in the file list, not one).

git-gui: Clear undo/redo stack when loading a message file from disk.
If we load a message file (e.g. MERGE_MSG) or we have just finished
making a commit and are clearing out the commit buffer we should also
clear out the undo/redo stack associated with that buffer. The prior
undo/redo stack has no associated with the new content and therefore
is not useful to the user.
Also modified the sign-off operation to perform the entire update in
a single undo/redo operation, allowing the user to undo the signoff
in case they didn't actually want to do that.
I also noticed what may be a crash on Windows related to the up and
down arrow keys navigating within the diff viewer. Since I got back
no stack trace (just an application exit with a loss of the commit
message) I suspect that the binding to scroll the text widget crashed
with an error and the wish process just terminated. So now we catch
(and ignore) any sort of error related to the arrow keys in the diff
viewer.

Just make it take over blame's place. Documentation and command
have all stopped mentioning "git-pickaxe". The built-in synonym
is left in the command table, so you can still say "git pickaxe",
but it probably is a good idea to retire it as well.
Otherwise, commit log template would get the remainder of the
filename start on a new line unquoted and the log gets messed
up.
I initially considered using the full quote_c_style(), but the
output from the command is primarily for human consumption so
chose to leave other control characters and bytes with high-bits
unmolested.
Replace "gitweb diff header" with its full sha1 of blobs and replace
it by "git diff" header and extended diff header. Change also somewhat
highlighting of diffs.
Added `file_type_long' subroutine to convert file mode in octal to
file type description (only for file modes which used by git).
Changes:
* "gitweb diff header" which looked for example like below:
file:_<sha1 before>_ -> file:_<sha1 after>_
where 'file' is file type and '<sha1>' is full sha1 of blob is
changed to
diff --git _a/<file before>_ _b/<file after>_
In both cases links are visible and use default link style. If file
is added, a/<file> is not hyperlinked. If file is deleted, b/<file>
is not hyperlinked.
* there is added "extended diff header", with <path> and <hash>
hyperlinked (and <hash> shortened to 7 characters), and <mode>
explained: '<mode>' is extended to '<mode> (<file type description>)',
where added text is slightly lighter to easy distinguish that it
was added (and it is difference from git-diff output).
* from-file/to-file two-line header lines have slightly darker color
than removed/added lines.
* chunk header has now delicate line above for easier finding chunk
boundary, and top margin of 2px, both barely visible.

A forked project is defined to be $projname/$forkname.git for

$projname/.git to be a fork of itself. This minimally fixes the
breakage.
Also forks were not checked when index.aux file was in use.
Listing the forked ones in index.aux would show them also on the
toplevel index which may go against the hierarchical nature of
forks, but again this is a minimal fix to whip it in a better
shape suitable to be in the 'master' branch.
Apparently this code was never tested without "forks". check-feature

git-gui: Don't let the user pull into an uncommitted working directory.
If there are modified files present in the working directory then we
should not let the user perform a pull as it may fail due to the modified
files being uncommitted but needing to be merged at the file level.
Yes there are many cases where a merge will complete successfully even
though there are modified or untracked files sitting in the working
directory. But users generally shouldn't be attempting merges like that,
and if they are they probably are advanced enough to just use the command
line and bypass this little safety check.
We also no longer run a rescan after a successful pull has completed.
Usually this is unnecessary as a successful pull won't leave modified
files laying around. Instead we just update our HEAD and PARENT values
with the new commit, if there is one.
Unfortunately this does let the user get into an insane state as there
are bugs in core Git's git-pull and git-merge programs where the exit
status is sent back as a 0 rather than non-0 when a failure is detected.

git-gui: Allow the user to disable update-index --refresh during rescan.
On very large projects (~1000 files) on Windows systems the update-index
--refresh stage of the rescan process takes a nontrival amount of time.
If the user is generally very careful with their file modification such
that the modification timestamp of the file differs only when the content
also differs then we can skip this somewhat expensive step and go right
to the diff-index and diff-files processes.
We save the user's prefernce in the current repository if they modify the
setting during a git-gui session, but we also load it through our dump of
repo-config --list so the user could move it to their ~/.gitconfig file
if they wanted it globally disabled.
We still keep update-index --refresh enabled by default however, as most

git-gui: Added repack database menu option, to invoke git repack.
Most users of git-gui probably shouldn't be invoking git repack directly;

that's more work to code, and there's always going to be discussion about
what is the right default threshold and how do we know that the user is
willing to do the repack when we decide its time, etc.
So instead we'll just keep it simple and offer up the menu option.
Unfortunately right now we get now progress indication back from

it disable progress output and the git-repack.sh wrapper won't let us

Since Tk will only supply new space gained from growing the top level to
the bottom/right most widget within a panedwindow and most users will be
growing a git-gui main window for the purposes of seeing more of the
currently shown diff, flipping the order around makes Tk do what the
user wants by default.
Of course because we also removed the paned window from the commit buffer
area it is now impossible to increase the visible space for the commit
message. But I don't see this as a huge concern right now as its actually
very awkward to try and balance three paned window dividers within the
same top level window. We could always add it back if users really want
to expand the commit buffer and see more.

Removed as much as possible from the merge_state proc, which is where
we spent most of our time before UI update. This change makes our
running time match that of git status, except that we then need about
7 additional seconds to draw 6900 files on screen.
Apparently the [array names a -exact $v] operator in Tcl is O(n) rather
than O(1), which is really quite disappointing given that each array can
only have one entry for a given value. Switching to a lookup with a

git-status on the same system completes in just 8.2 seconds if it is

Most of our performance improvement comes from moving all of the UI
updating out of the main fileevent handlers for the status process.
Instead we are only updating the file_states array and then only doing
the UI update when all states are known and have been finally determined.
The rescan execution is now down to almost 30 seconds for the same case,

When we were receiving a lot of output from diff-index we split records
at the wrong locations and started using the file status information

of the path names as status data. This caused all sorts of havoc.
So I rewrote the parsing implementation to scan for the pair of null
bytes along the buffer and stop scanning (waiting for more data) if
both can't be found during this event. This seems to work well under

Bash completion support for remotes in .git/config.
Now that Git natively supports remote specifications within the
config file such as:
[remote "origin"]
url = ...
we should provide bash completion support "out of the box" for
these remotes, just like we do for the .git/remotes directory.
Also cleaned up the __git_aliases expansion to use the same form
of querying and filtering repo-config as this saves two fork/execs
in the middle of a user prompted completion. Finally also forced
the variable 'word' to be local within __git_aliased_command.

Added missing completions for show-branch and merge-base.
The show-branch and merge-base commands were partially supported
when it came to bash completions as they were only specified in
one form another. Now we specify them in both forms.

git-pickaxe: optimize by avoiding repeated read_sha1_file().
It turns out that pickaxe reads the same blob repeatedly while
blame can reuse the blob already read for the parent when
handling a child commit when it's parent's turn to pass its
blame to the grandparent. Have a cache in the origin structure
to keep the blob there, which will be garbage collected when the
origin loses the last reference to it.
