Rather than storing the temporary commit message data in .msg (in
the working tree) we now store the message data in .git/MERGE_MSG.
By storing the message in the .git/ directory we are sure we will
never have a collision with a user file, should a project actually
have a ".msg" file in their top level tree. We also don't need to
worry about leaving this stale file behind during a `reset --hard`
and have it show up in the output of status.
We are using .git/MERGE_MSG here to store the temporary message as
it is an already established convention between git-merge, git-am
and git-rebase that git-commit will default the user's edit buffer
to the contents of .git/MERGE_MSG. If the user is going to need
to resolve this commit or wants to edit the message on their own
prepping that file with the desired message "just works".

Since we support vi-like keys for scrolling in other UI contexts
we can easily do so here too. Tk's handy little `event generate'
makes this a lot easier than I thought it would be. We may want
to go back and fix some of the other vi-like bindings to redirect
to the arrow and pageup/pagedown keys, rather than running the
view changes directly.
I've bound 'v' to visualize, as this is a somewhat common thing
to want to do in the merge dialog. Control (or Command) Return
is also bound to start the merge, much as it is bound in the
main window to activate the commit.

git-gui: Include commit id/subject in merge choices
When merging branches using our local merge feature it can be
handy to know the first few digits of the commit the ref points
at as well as the short description of the branch name.
Unfortunately I'm unable to use three listboxes in a row, as Tcl
freaks out and refuses to let me have a selection in more than
one of them at any given point in time. So instead we use a
fixed width font in the existing listbox and organize the data
into three columns. Not nearly as nice looking, but users can
continue to use the listbox's features.

Johannes Sixt pointed out that git-gui was randomly selecting
which branch (or tag!) it will show in the merge dialog when
more than one ref points at the same commit. This can be a
problem for the user if they want to merge a branch, but the
ref that git-gui selected to display was actually a tag that
points at the commit at the tip of that branch. Since the
user is looking for the branch, and not the tag, its confusing
to not find it, and worse, merging the tag causes git-merge to
generate a different message than if the branch was selected.
While I am in here and am messing around I have changed the
for-each-ref usage to take advantage of its --tcl formatting,
and to fetch the subject line of the commit (or tag) we are
looking at. This way we could present the subject line in the
UI to the user, given them an even better chance to select
the correct branch.

To help modularize git-gui better I'm isolating the code and

git-gui: Refactor into multiple files to save my sanity
I'm finding it difficult to work with a 6,000+ line Tcl script
and not go insane while looking for a particular block of code.
Since most of the program is organized into different units of
functionality and not all users will need all units immediately
on startup we can improve things by splitting procs out into
multiple files and let auto_load handle things for us.
This should help not only to better organize the source, but
it may also improve startup times for some users as the Tcl
parser does not need to read as much script before it can show
the UI. In many cases the user can avoid reading at least half
of git-gui now.
Unfortunately we now need a library directory in our runtime
location. This is currently assumed to be $(sharedir)/git-gui/lib
and its expected that the Makefile invoker will setup some sort of
reasonable sharedir value for us, or let us assume its going to be
$(gitexecdir)/../share.
We now also require a tclsh (in TCL_PATH) to just run the Makefile,
as we use tclsh to generate the tclIndex for our lib directory. I'm
hoping this is not an unncessary burden on end-users who are building
from source.
I haven't really made any functionality changes here, this is just a
huge migration of code from one file to many smaller files. All of
the new changes are to setup the library path and install the library
files.

The previous commit calls attention to the fact that we have two
sections each devoted to fast-forwards and to dangling objects. Revise
and attempt to differentiate them a bit. Some more reorganization may

Any section lacking an id gets an annoying warning when you build

volatile id's which change with every build, with the effect that
we get URL's that change all the time.
The ID's are manually generated and sometimes inconsistent, but

Small correction in reading of commit headers
Documentation: fix typo in git-remote.txt
Add test for blame corner cases.

Fix --boundary output

Mention version 1.5.1 in tutorial and user-manual
Add --no-rebase option to git-svn dcommit
Fix markup in git-svn man page
When you do this, existing "blame -C -C" would not find that the
latter half of the file2 came from the existing file1:
... both file1 and file2 are tracked ...
$ cat file1 >>file2
$ git add file1 file2
$ git commit
This is because we avoid the expensive find-copies-harder code
that makes unchanged file (in this case, file1) as a candidate
for copy & paste source when annotating an existing file
(file2). The third -C now allows it. However, this obviously
makes the process very expensive. We've actually seen this
patch before, but I dismissed it because it covers such a narrow
(and arguably stupid) corner case.
blame: Notice a wholesale incorporation of an existing file.
The -C option to blame tries to find a section of a preimage
file by running diff against the lines whose origin is still
unknown, and excluding the different parts. The code however
did not cover the case where the tail part of the section
matched, which we handle for the normal non-move/copy codepath.
This breakage was most visible when preimage file matches in its
entirety and failed to pass blame in such a case.
Most other documentation will frequently be read from an installation
of git so will naturally be associated with the installed version.
But these two documents in particular are often read from web pages
while users are still exploring git. It's important to mention
version 1.5.1 since these documents provide example commands that
won't work with previous versions of git.
git-svn dcommit exports commits to Subversion, then imports them back
to git again, and last but not least rebases or resets HEAD to the
last of the new commits. I guess this rebasing is convenient when
using just git, but when the commits to be exported are managed by
StGIT, it's really annoying. So add an option to disable this
behavior. And document it, too!

Improve request-pull to handle non-rebased branches
This is actually a few different changes to request-pull,
making it slightly smarter:
1) Minor cleanup of revision->base variable names, making it
follow the head/headrev naming convention that is already
in use.
2) Compute the merge-base between the two revisions upfront
and reuse that selected merge-base to create the diffstat.
3) Refuse to generate a pull request for branches that have no
existing relationship. These aren't very common and would mess
up our diffstat generation.
4) Disable the PAGER when running shortlog and diff, as these
would otherwise activate the pager for each command when
git-request-pull is run on a tty. Instead users can get the
entire output paged (if desired) using `git -p request-pull`.
5) Use shortlog rather than `git log | git shortlog` now that
recent shortlog versions are able to run the revision listing
internally.
6) Attempt to resolve the input URL using the user's configured
remotes. This is useful if the URL you want the recipient to
see is also the one you used to push your changes. If not a
config-file remote could easily be setup for the public URL
and request-pull could be passed that name instead.
7) Automatically guess and include the remote branch name in the
body of the message. We list the branch name immediately after
the URL, making it easy for the recipient to copy and paste
the entire line onto a `git pull` command line. Rumor has it
Linus likes this format, for exactly that reason.
If multiple branches at the remote match $headrev we take the
first one returned by peek-remote and assume it is suitable.
If no branches are available we warn the user about the problem,
but insert a static string that is not a valid branch name
and would be obvious to anyone reading the message as being
totally incorrect. This allows users to still generate a
template message without network access (for example) and
hand-correct the bits that cannot be verified.

There really isn't any point in turning off .mailmap. The
number of mailmap lookups are bounded by number of lines in the
target file, and the real blame processing is much more
expensive. If it turns out to be too costly, we should optimize
the mailmap lookup itself, instead of avoiding the call.
If the author information of commits of the project are
relatively clean, .mailmap would have only small number of
entries, and the overhead of looking it up will not be high. On
the other hand, if the author information is really screwed up
that a good .mailmap needs to be maintained to run shortlog,
giving uncleaned names in blame output is not helpful at all
either.

Teach import-tars about GNU tar's @LongLink extension.
This extension allows GNU tar to process file names in excess of the 100
characters defined by the original tar standard. It does this by faking a
file, named '././@LongLink' containing the true file name, and then adding
the file with a truncated name. The idea is that tar without this
extension will write out a file with the long file name, and write the
contents into a file with truncated name.
Unfortunately, GNU tar does a lousy job at times. When truncating results
in a _directory_ name, it will happily use _that_ as a truncated name for
the file.
An example where this actually happens is gcc-4.1.2, where the full path
of the file WeThrowThisExceptionHelper.java truncates _exactly_ before the
basename. So, we have to support that ad-hoc extension.
