git-gui (Windows): Change wrapper to execdir 'libexec/git-core'
git-gui needs bindir in PATH to be able to run 'git'. bindir
however is not necessarily in PATH if started directly through a
Windows shortcut. Therefore, we used to add the directory
git-gui is located in. But with the new 'libexec/git-core'
layout this directory is no longer identical to bindir.
This commit modifies the wrapper script to discover the bindir
and add it to PATH.

git-gui (Windows): Switch to relative discovery of oguilib

git-gui: Correct installation of library to be $prefix/share
We always wanted the library for git-gui to install into the
$prefix/share directory, not $prefix/libexec/share. All of
the files in our library are platform independent and may
be reused across systems, like any other content stored in
the share directory.
Our computation of where our library should install to was broken
when git itself started installing to $prefix/libexec/git-core,
which was one level down from where we expected it to be.

git-gui: Fix gitk search in $PATH to work on Windows
Back in 15430be5a1 ("Look for gitk in $PATH, not $LIBEXEC/git-core")
git-gui learned to use [_which gitk] to locate where gitk's script
is as Git 1.6 will install gitk to $prefix/bin (in $PATH) and all
of the other tools are in $gitexecdir.
This failed on Windows because _which adds the ".exe" suffix as it
searches for the program on $PATH, under the assumption that we can
only execute something from Tcl if it is a proper Windows executable.
When scanning for gitk on Windows we need to omit the ".exe" suffix.

git-gui: "Stage Line": Treat independent changes in adjacent lines better
Assume that we want to commit these states:
Old state == HEAD Intermediate state New state
--------------------------------------------------------
context before context before context before
old 1 new 1 new 1
old 2 old 2 new 2
context after context after context after
that is, want to commit two changes in this order:
1. transform "old 1" into "new 1"
2. transform "old 2" into "new 2"
[This discussion and this patch is about this very case and one other case
as outlined below; any other intermediate states that one could imagine are
not affected by this patch.]
Now assume further, that we have not staged and commited anything, but we
have already changed the working file to the new state. Then we will see
this hunk in the "Unstaged Changes":
@@ -1,4 +1,4 @@
context before
-old 1
-old 2
+new 1
+new 2
context after
The obvious way to stage the intermediate state is to apply "Stage This
Line" to "-old 1" and "+new 1". Unfortunately, this resulted in this
intermediate state:
context before
old 2
new 1
context after
which is not what we wanted. In fact, it was impossible to stage the
intermediate state using "Stage Line". The crux was that if a "+" line was
staged, then the "-" lines were converted to context lines and arranged
*before* the "+" line in the forged hunk that we fed to 'git apply'.
With this patch we now treat "+" lines that are staged differently. In
particular, the "-" lines before the "+" block are moved *after* the
staged "+" line. Now it is possible to get the correct intermediate state
by staging "-old 1" and "+new 1". Problem solved.
But there is a catch.
Noticing that we didn't get the right intermediate state by staging
"-old 1" and "+new 1", we could have had the idea to stage the complete
hunk and to *unstage* "-old 2" and "+new 2". But... the result is the same.
The reason is that there is the exact symmetric problem with unstaging the
last "-" and "+" line that are in adjacent blocks of "-" and "+" lines.
This patch does *not* change the way in which "-" lines are *unstaged*.
Why? Because if we did (i.e. move "+" lines before the "-" line after
converting them to context lines), then it would be impossible to stage
this intermediate state:
context before
old 1
new 2
context after
that is, it would be impossible to stage the two independet changes in the
opposite order.
Let's look at this case a bit further: The obvious way to get this
intermediate state would be to apply "Stage This Line" to "-old 2" and
"+new 2". Before this patch, this worked as expected. With this patch, it
does not work as expected, but it can still be achieved by first staging
the entire hunk, then *unstaging* "-old 1" and "+new 1".
In summary, this patch makes a common case possible, at the expense that
a less common case is made more complicated for the user.

git-gui: Correct 'Visualize Branches' on Mac OS X to start gitk
In Git 1.6 and later gitk is in $prefix/bin while git-gui and all
of the other commands are in $gitexecdir, which is typically not
the same as $prefix/bin. So we cannot launch $gitexecdir/gitk and
expect it to actually start gitk properly.

exactly that path when we source it during the application start
we can correctly run gitk on any Git 1.5 or later.

This adds a context menu entry below "Stage/Unstage Hunk" that stages or
unstages just the line under the mouse pointer.
This is by itself useful, for example, if there are unrelated changes in
the same hunk and the hunk cannot be split by reducing the context.
The feature can also be used to split a hunk by staging a number of
additions (or unstaging a number of removals) until there are enough
context lines that the hunk gets split.
The implementation reads the complete hunk that the line lives in, and
constructs a new hunk by picking existing context lines, removing unneeded
change lines and transforming other change lines to context lines. The
resulting hunk is fed through 'git apply' just like in the "Stage/Unstage
Hunk" case.

git-gui: Move on to the next filename after staging/unstaging a change

This patch changes that behaviour. If one clicks on the icon to stage

on to the next filename in the list and display that diff instead of a
blank diff pane. If the selected file was at the end of the list, the

Often new Git users want to know what commands git-gui uses to make
changes, so they can learn the command line interface by mimicking
what git-gui does in response to GUI actions. Showing the direct
commands being executed is easy enough to implement but this is of
little value to end-users because git-gui frequently directly calls
plumbing, not porcelain.
Since the code is already written and tested, its fairly harmless
to include. It may not help a new end-user, but it can help with
debugging git-gui or reverse-engineering its logic to further make

git-gui: Avoid hardcoded Windows paths in Cygwin package files
When we are being built by the Cygwin package maintainers we need to
embed the POSIX path to our library files and not the Windows path.
Embedding the Windows path means all end-users who install our Cygwin
package would be required to install Cygwin at the same Windows path
as the package maintainer had Cygwin installed to. This requirement
is simply not user-friendly and may be infeasible for a large number
of our users.
We now try to auto-detect if the Tcl/Tk binary we will use at runtime
is capable of translating POSIX paths into Windows paths the same way
that cygpath does the translations. If the Tcl/Tk binary gives us the
same results then it understands the Cygwin path translation process
and should be able to read our library files from a POSIX path name.
If it does not give us the same answer as cygpath then the Tcl/Tk
binary might actually be a native Win32 build (one that is not
linked against Cygwin) and thus requires the native Windows path
to our library files. We can assume this is not a Cygwin package
as the Cygwin maintainers do not currently ship a pure Win32 build
of Tcl/Tk.

to us that we find a working TCL_PATH at build time.
If TCL_PATH hasn't been set yet we can take a better guess about what
tclsh executable to use by replacing 'wish' in the executable path with
'tclsh'. We only do this replacement on the filename part of the path,
just in case the string "wish" appears in the directory paths. Most of
the time the tclsh will be installed alongside wish so this replacement
is a sensible and safe default.

an error in Tcl.
We now trap the subprocess failure and display the stderr message
from it, letting the user know why the failure is happening. We then
disable the spell checker, but keep our object instance so the user
can alter their preferred dictionary through the options dialog, and
possibly restart the spell checker.
I was also originally wrong to use "error" here for the display

git-gui: Automatically spell check commit messages as the user types
Many user friendly tools like word processors, email editors and web
browsers allow users to spell check the message they are writing
as they type it, making it easy to identify a common misspelling
of a word and correct it on the fly.
We now open a bi-directional pipe to Aspell and feed the message
text the user is editing off to the program about once every 300
milliseconds. This is frequent enough that the user sees the results
almost immediately, but is not so frequent as to cause significant
additional load on the system. If the user has modified the message
text during the last 300 milliseconds we delay until the next period,
ensuring that we avoid flooding the Aspell process with a lot of
text while the user is actively typing their message.
We wait to send the current message buffer to Aspell until the user
is at a word boundary, thus ensuring that we are not likely to ask
for misspelled word detection on a word that the user is actively
typing, as most words are misspelled when only partially typed,
even if the user has thus far typed it correctly.
Misspelled words are highlighted in red and are given an underline,
causing the word to stand out from the others in the buffer. This is
a very common user interface idiom for displaying misspelled words,
but differs from one platform to the next in slight variations.
For example the Mac OS X system prefers using a dashed red underline,
leaving the word in the original text color. Unfortunately the
control that Tk gives us over text display is not powerful enough
to handle such formatting so we have to work with the least common
denominator.
The top suggestions for a misspelling are saved in an array and
offered to the user when they right-click (or on the Mac ctrl-click)
a misspelled word. Selecting an entry from this menu will replace
the misspelling with the correction shown. Replacement is integrated
with the undo/redo stack so undoing a replacement will restore the
misspelled original text.
If Aspell could not be started during git-gui launch we silently eat
the error and run without spell checking support. This way users
who do not have Aspell in their $PATH can continue to use git-gui,
although they will not get the advanced spelling functionality.
If Aspell started successfully the version line and language are
shown in git-gui's about box, below the Tcl/Tk versions. This way
the user can verify the Aspell function has been activated.
If Aspell crashes while we are running we inform the user with an
error dialog and then disable Aspell entirely for the rest of this
git-gui session. This prevents us from fork-bombing the system
with Aspell instances that always crash when presented with the
current message text, should there be a bug in either Aspell or in
git-gui's output to it.
We escape all input lines with ^, as recommended by the Aspell manual
page, as this allows Aspell to properly ignore any input line that is
otherwise looking like a command (e.g. ! to enable terse output). By
using this escape however we need to correct all word offsets by -1 as
Aspell is apparently considering the ^ escape to be part of the line's
character count, but our Tk text widget obviously does not.
Available dictionaries are offered in the Options dialog, allowing
the user to select the language they want to spellcheck commit
messages with for the current repository, as well as the global
user setting that all repositories inherit.
Special thanks to Adam Flott for suggesting connecting git-gui
to Aspell for the purpose of spell checking the commit message,
and to Wincent Colaiuta for the idea to wait for a word boundary

In the multiple message case we remove the word "messages" from the
statistics output of msgfmt as it looks cleaner on the tty when you
are watching the build process. However we failed to strip the word
"message" when only 1 message was found to be untranslated or fuzzy,
as msgfmt does not produce the 's' suffix.

git-gui: Make the statistics of po2msg match those of msgfmt
The strings we were showing from po2msg didn't exactly match those
of msgfmt's --statistics output so we didn't show quite the same
results when building git-gui's message files. Now we're closer
to what msgfmt shows (at least for an en_US locale) so the make
output matches.
I noticed that the fuzzy translation count is off by one for the
current po/zh_cn.po file. Not sure why and I'm not going to try
and debug it at this time as the po2msg is strictly a fallback,
users building from source really should prefer msgfmt.

git-gui: Fallback to Tcl based po2msg.sh if msgfmt isn't available
If msgfmt fails with exit code 127 that typically means the program
is not found in the user's PATH and thus cannot be executed by make.
In such a case we can try to fallback to the Tcl based po2msg program
that we distributed with git-gui, as it does a "good enough" job.
We still don't default to po2msg.sh however as it does not perform
a lot of the sanity checks that msgfmt does, and quite a few of
those are too useful to give up.

git-gui: Work around random missing scrollbar in revision list
If the horizontal scrollbar isn't currently visible (because it has
not been needed) but we get an update to the scroll port we may find
the scrollbar window exists but the Tcl command doesn't. Apparently
it is possible for Tk to have partially destroyed the scrollbar by
removing the Tcl procedure name but still leaving the widget name in
the window registry.

git-gui: Correct encoding of glossary/fr.po to UTF-8
Junio noticed this was incorrectly added in ISO-8859-1 but it should
be in UTF-8 (as the headers claim UTF-8, and our convention is to use
only UTF-8).

git-gui: Consolidate hook execution code into a single function
The code we use to test if a hook is executable or not differs on
Cygwin from the normal POSIX case. Rather then repeating that for
all three hooks we call in our commit code path we can place the
common logic into a global procedure and invoke it when necessary.
This also lets us get rid of the ugly "|& cat" we were using before
as we can now rely on the Tcl 8.4 feature of "2>@1" or fallback to
the "|& cat" when necessary.
The post-commit hook is now run through the same API, but its outcome
does not influence the commit status. As a result we now show any of
the errors from the post-commit hook in a dialog window, instead of on
the user's tty that was used to launch git-gui. This resolves a long
standing bug related to not getting errors out of the post-commit hook
when launched under git-gui.

git-gui: Correct window title for hook failure dialogs
During i18n translation work this message was partially broken
by using "append" instead of "strcat" to join the two different
parts of the message together.

Under core Git the git-commit tool will invoke the commit-msg hook
if it exists and is executable to the user running git-commit. As
a hook it has some limited value as it cannot alter the commit, but
it can modify the message the user is attempting to commit. It is
also able to examine the message to ensure it conforms to some local
standards/conventions.
Since the hook takes the name of a temporary file holding the message
as its only parameter we need to move the code that creates the temp
file up earlier in our commit code path, and then pass through that
file name to the latest stage (where we call git-commit-tree). We let
the hook alter the file as it sees fit and we don't bother to look at
its content again until the commit succeeded and we need the subject
for the reflog update.

gg_libdir is converted to an absolute Windows path on Cygwin,
but a later step attempts to prefix $DESTDIR to install to a
staging directory. Explicitly separate the uses of gg_libdir for
these two purposes so installation to $DESTDIR will work.

git-gui: Refresh file status description after hunk application
If we apply a hunk in either direction this may change the file's
status. For example if a file is completely unstaged, and has at
least two hunks in it and the user stages one hunk the file will
change from "Modified, not staged" to "Portions staged for commit".
Resetting the file path causes our trace on this variable to fire;
that trace is used to update the file header in the diff viewer to
the file's current status.

git-gui: Allow 'Create New Repository' on existing directories
Often users setup a few source files and get a project rolling
before they create a Git repository for it. In such cases the
core Git tools allow users to initialize a new repository by
simply running `git init` at the desired root level directory.
We need to allow the same situation in git-gui; if the user is
trying to make a new repository we should let them do that to any
location they chose. If the directory already exists and already
has files contained within it we still should allow the user to
create a repository there. However we still need to disallow
creating a repository on top of an existing repository.

git-gui: Make commit log messages end with a newline
Concatenating commit log messages from multiple commits works better
when all of the commits end with a clean line break.
Its good to be strict in what you create, and lenient in what you
accept, and since we're creating here, we should always try to
Do The Right Thing(tm).

git-gui: Unconditionally use absolute paths with Cygwin
The mapping of Windows vs Cygwin/Posix paths is arbitrary and not knowable
from the Posix side, so logic to determine whether to use relative paths
to locate the git-gui library just does not work on Cygwin. Fix this to
unconditionally use absolute path on Cygwin. (This fixes a regression
from 1.5.4).
