dir.c: git-status --ignored: don't scan the work tree twice
'git-status --ignored' still scans the work tree twice to collect
untracked and ignored files, respectively.
fill_directory / read_directory already supports collecting untracked and
ignored files in a single directory scan. However, the DIR_COLLECT_IGNORED
flag to enable this has some git-add specific side-effects (e.g. it
doesn't recurse into ignored directories, so listing ignored files with
--untracked=all doesn't work).
The DIR_SHOW_IGNORED flag doesn't list untracked files and returns ignored
files in dir_struct.entries[] (instead of dir_struct.ignored[] as
DIR_COLLECT_IGNORED). DIR_SHOW_IGNORED is used all throughout git.
We don't want to break the existing API, so lets introduce a new flag
DIR_SHOW_IGNORED_TOO that lists untracked as well as ignored files similar
to DIR_COLLECT_FILES, but will recurse into sub-directories based on the
other flags as DIR_SHOW_IGNORED does.
In dir.c::read_directory_recursive, add ignored files to either
dir_struct.entries[] or dir_struct.ignored[] based on the flags. Also move
the DIR_COLLECT_IGNORED case here so that filling result lists is in a
common place.
In wt-status.c::wt_status_collect_untracked, use the new flag and read
results from dir_struct.ignored[]. Remove the extra fill_directory call.
builtin/check-ignore.c doesn't call fill_directory, setting the git-add
specific DIR_COLLECT_IGNORED flag has no effect here. Remove for clarity.
Update API documentation to reflect the changes.
Performance: with this patch, 'git-status --ignored' is typically as fast
as 'git-status'.

dir.c: git-status --ignored: don't scan the work tree three times
'git-status --ignored' recursively scans directories up to three times:
1. To collect untracked files.
2. To collect ignored files.
3. When collecting ignored files, to check that an untracked directory
that potentially contains ignored files doesn't also contain untracked
files (i.e. isn't already listed as untracked).
Let's get rid of case 3 first.
Currently, read_directory_recursive returns a boolean whether a directory
contains the requested files or not (actually, it returns the number of
files, but no caller actually needs that), and DIR_SHOW_IGNORED specifies
what we're looking for.
To be able to test for both untracked and ignored files in a single scan,
we need to return a bit more info, and the result must be independent of
the DIR_SHOW_IGNORED flag.
Reuse the path_treatment enum as return value of read_directory_recursive.
Split path_handled in two separate values path_excluded and path_untracked
that don't change their meaning with the DIR_SHOW_IGNORED flag. We don't
need an extra value path_untracked_and_excluded, as directories with both
untracked and ignored files should be listed as untracked.
Rename path_ignored to path_none for clarity (i.e. "don't treat that path"
in contrast to "the path is ignored and should be treated according to
DIR_SHOW_IGNORED").
Replace enum directory_treatment with path_treatment. That's just another
enum with the same meaning, no need to translate back and forth.
In treat_directory, get rid of the extra read_directory_recursive call and
all the DIR_SHOW_IGNORED-specific code.
In read_directory_recursive, decide whether to dir_add_name path_excluded
or path_untracked paths based on the DIR_SHOW_IGNORED flag.
The return value of read_directory_recursive is the maximum path_treatment
of all files and sub-directories. In the check_only case, abort when we've
reached the most significant value (path_untracked).

dir.c: unify is_excluded and is_path_excluded APIs
The is_excluded and is_path_excluded APIs are very similar, except for a
few noteworthy differences:
is_excluded doesn't handle ignored directories, results for paths within
ignored directories are incorrect. This is probably based on the premise
that recursive directory scans should stop at ignored directories, which
is no longer true (in certain cases, read_directory_recursive currently
calls is_excluded *and* is_path_excluded to get correct ignored state).
is_excluded caches parsed .gitignore files of the last directory in struct
dir_struct. If the directory changes, it finds a common parent directory
and is very careful to drop only as much state as necessary. On the other
hand, is_excluded will also read and parse .gitignore files in already
ignored directories, which are completely irrelevant.
is_path_excluded correctly handles ignored directories by checking if any
component in the path is excluded. As it uses is_excluded internally, this
unfortunately forces is_excluded to drop and re-read all .gitignore files,
as there is no common parent directory for the root dir.
is_path_excluded tracks state in a separate struct path_exclude_check,
which is essentially a wrapper of dir_struct with two more fields. However,
as is_path_excluded also modifies dir_struct, it is not possible to e.g.
use multiple path_exclude_check structures with the same dir_struct in
parallel. The additional structure just unnecessarily complicates the API.
Teach is_excluded / prep_exclude about ignored directories: whenever
entering a new directory, first check if the entire directory is excluded.
Remember the excluded state in dir_struct. Don't traverse into already
ignored directories (i.e. don't read irrelevant .gitignore files).
Directories could also be excluded by exclude patterns specified on the
command line or .git/info/exclude, so we cannot simply skip prep_exclude
entirely if there's no .gitignore file name (dir_struct.exclude_per_dir).
Move this check to just before actually reading the file.
is_path_excluded is now equivalent to is_excluded, so we can simply
redirect to it (the public API is cleaned up in the next patch).
The performance impact of the additional ignored check per directory is
hardly noticeable when reading directories recursively (e.g. 'git status').
However, performance of git commands using the is_path_excluded API (e.g.
'git ls-files --cached --ignored --exclude-standard') is greatly improved
as this no longer re-reads .gitignore files on each call.
Here's some performance data from the linux and WebKit repos (best of 10
runs on a Debian Linux on SSD, core.preloadIndex=true):

- git-status --ignored: lists ignored tracked directories while contained

In dir.c::treat_directory, remove the special handling of ignored tracked

'git-status --ignored path/' doesn't list ignored files and directories

transport-helper: pass --signed-tags=warn-strip to fast-export

fast-export results in the remote helper failing because the default
fast-export action for signed tags is "abort". This is not helpful for
users because there is no way to pass additional arguments to

line.
In general, the signature will be invalidated by whatever transformation
a remote helper performs on a tag to push it to a repository in a
different format so the correct behaviour is to strip the tag. Doing
this silently may surprise people, so use "warn-strip" to issue a

doc/http-backend: match query-string in apache half-auth example
When setting up a "half-auth" repository in which reads can
be done anonymously but writes require authentication, it is
best if the server can require authentication for both the
ref advertisement and the actual receive-pack POSTs. This
alleviates the need for the admin to set http.receivepack in
the repositories, and means that the client is challenged
for credentials immediately, instead of partway through the
push process (and git clients older than v1.7.11.7 had
trouble handling these challenges).
Since detecting a push during the ref advertisement requires
matching the query string, and this is non-trivial to do in
Apache, we have traditionally punted and instructed users to
just protect "/git-receive-pack$". This patch provides the
mod_rewrite recipe to actually match the ref advertisement,
which is preferred.
While we're at it, let's add the recipe to our test scripts
so that we can be sure that it works, and doesn't get broken
(either by our changes or by changes in Apache).
