update-index: upgrade/downgrade on-disk index version
With the "--index-version <n>" parameter, write the index out in the
specified version. With this, an index file that is written in newer
format (say v4) can be downgraded to be read by older versions of Git.
read-cache.c: read prefix-compressed names in index on-disk version v4
Because the entries are sorted by path, adjacent entries in the index tend
to share the leading components of them, and it makes sense to only store
the differences in later entries. In the v4 on-disk format of the index,
each on-disk cache entry stores the number of bytes to be stripped from
the end of the previous name, and the bytes to append to the result, to
come up with its name.
read-cache.c: allow unaligned mapping of the index file
Both the on-disk format v2 and v3 pads the "name" field to the multiple of
eight to make sure that various quantities in network long/short type can
be accessed with ntohl/ntohs without having to worry about alignment, but
this forces us to waste disk I/O bandwidth.
Introduce ntoh_s()/ntoh_l() macros that the callers can use as if they were
the regular ntohs()/ntohl() on a field that may not be aligned correctly.
The on-disk format of the index file is a detail whose implementation is
neatly encapsulated in read-cache.c; there is no need to expose it to the
general public that include the cache.h header file.
Also add a prominent mark to read-cache.c to delineate the parts that deal
with the index file I/O routines from the remainder of the file.
gitk: fix tabbed preferences construction when using tcl 8.4
In 8.5 the incr command creates the target variable if it does not exist

Documentation: improve description of GIT_EDITOR and preference order
Previously GIT_EDITOR was not listed in git(1) "Environment Variables" section,
which could be very confusing to users. Include it in "other" subsection along
with a link to git-var(1), since that is the page that fully describes all
places where editor can be set and also their preference order.
Also, git-var(1) did not say that hardcoded fallback 'vi' may have been changed
at build time. A user could be puzzled if 'nano' pops up even when none of the
mentioned environment vars or config.editor are set. Clarify this.
Ideally, the build system should be changed to reflect the chosen fallback
editor when creating the man pages. Not sure if that is even possible though.

it was deemed unnecessary clutter to show additions of these thousands of
paths as a patch.
"git log" learned to show the patch for the initial commit without requiring
--root command line option at 0f03ca9 (config option log.showroot to show
the diff of root commits, 2006-11-23).

gitk: Add menu items for comparing a commit with the marked commit
Sometimes one wants to see the different between two commits that are
a long distance apart in the graph display. This is difficult to do
with the "Diff this -> selected" and "Diff selected -> this" menu
items because the need to maintain the selection means that one can't
use the find facilities or the reference list window to navigate from
one to the other.
This provides an alternative using the mark. Having found one commit,
one marks it with the "Mark this commit" menu item, then navigates to
the other commit and uses the new "Diff this -> marked commit" and/or
"Diff marked commit -> this" menu items.
Even though 1.7.9.x series does not open the editor by default
when merging in general, it does do so in one occassion: when
merging an annotated tag. And worse yet, there is no good way
for older scripts to decline this.
Backport the support for GIT_MERGE_AUTOEDIT environment variable
from 1.7.10 track to help those stuck on 1.7.9.x maintenance
track.
On large repositories such as the Linux kernel, it can take quite a
noticeable time (several seconds) for gitk to resolve short SHA1 IDs
to their long form. This speeds up the process by maintaining lists
of IDs indexed by the first 4 characters of the SHA1 ID, speeding up
the search by a factor of 65536 on large repositories.
gitk: Use symbolic font names "sans" and "monospace" when available
The following only concerns systems using X and the client-side font
rendering framework from freedesktop.org. Windows and Mac OS X are
not affected.
Starting with version 8.5, Tk uses freetype and fontconfig by default
to render fonts on platforms that support it. Gitk currently defaults
to the font Helvetica for the interface and Courier for diffs, and
both unfortunately look rather bad on screen in the default
configuration on many Linux distros with anti-aliasing and poor
hinting.
It is better to default to "sans" and "monospace", which are mapped by
fontconfig to some appropriate font of the sysadmin and user's
choosing (typically Bitstream Vera Sans and Mono). The result looks
more sensible and it makes gitk feel like a well-behaved software
citizen since its fonts match other native apps.
This patch does not change the appearance of gitk for users that have
already run it, since gitk uses the remembered UI and diff font names
from ~/.gitk.

Automake's contribution guidelines suggest using "git describe" output
in commit logs to reference previous commits. By contrast, in
coreutils, I had acquired the habit of using a bare SHA1 prefix (8 hex
digits), since gitk creates clickable links for that, and not for "git
describe" output.
I prefer the readability of the full "git describe" output, yet want
to retain the gitk links, so this renders as clickable not just
SHA1-like strings, but also an SHA1-like string that is prefixed by
"-g".

gitk: Fix the display of files when filtered by path
Launching 'gitk -- .' or 'gitk -- ..\t' restricts the display to files
under the given directory but the file list is left empty. This is because
the path_filter function fails to match the filenames which are relative
to the working tree to the filter which is filessytem relative.
This solves the problem by making both names fully qualified filesystem

The code to validate the history connectivity between old refs and new
refs used by fetch and receive-pack, introduced in 1.7.8, was grossly
inefficient and unnecessarily tried to re-validate integrity of individual
objects. This essentially reverts that performance regression.
Merge "two fixes for fast-import's 'ls' command" from Jonathan
Andrew Sayers noticed that the svn-fe | git fast-import pipeline
mishandles a subversion history that copies the root directory to a
sub-directory (e.g. doing `svn cp . trunk` to standardise your
layout). As David Barr explained, the bug arises when the following
command is sent to git fast-import:
'ls' SP ':1' SP LF
Instead of reading back what is at the root of r1, it unconditionally
reports the path as missing.
After sleeping on it, here are two patches for 'maint'. One plugs a
memory leak. The other ensures that trying to pass an empty path to
the 'ls' command results in an error message that can help the
frontend author instead of the silently broken conversion Andrew
found.
Then we can carefully add 'ls ""' support in 1.7.11.
* commit 'refs/pull-request-tags/jn/maint-fast-import-empty-ls':
fast-import: don't allow 'ls' of path with empty components
fast-import: leakfix for 'ls' of dirty trees
* th/git-diffall:

contrib/diffall: eliminate duplicate while loops
contrib/diffall: eliminate use of tar
contrib/diffall: create tmp dirs without mktemp
contrib/diffall: comment actual reason for 'cdup'
Git 1.7.8 introduced an object and history re-validation step after
"fetch" or "push" causes new history to be added to a receiving
repository. This is to protect a malicious server or pushing client from
corrupting the repository by taking advantage of an existing corrupt
object that is unconnected to existing history.
But this check is way over-pessimistic. During "fetch" or "receive-pack"
(the server side of "push"), unpack-objects and index-pack already
validate individual objects that are received, and the only thing we would
want to catch are corrupted objects that already happen to exist in our
repository but are not referenced from our refs. Such objects must have
been written by an earlier run of our codepaths that write out loose
objects or packfiles, and they must have done the validation of individual
objects when they did so. The only thing left to worry about is the
connectivity integrity, which can be checked with "rev-list --objects",
which is much cheaper. We have been paying the 5x to 8x runtime overhead
the --verify-objects often adds for no real gain.
Revert check_everything_connected() not to use this over-pessimistic
check.
Credit goes to Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy, who originally identified the
performance regression and endured multiple rounds of reviews to fix it.
Prior to this commit, the cleanup trap that removes the tmp dir
created by the script would fail on Windows. The error was silently
ignored by the script.
On Windows, a directory cannot be removed while it is the working
directory of the process (thanks to Johannes Sixt on the Git list
for this info [1]).
This commit eliminates the 'cd' into the tmp directory that caused
the error.
The 'tar' utility is not available on all platforms (some only support
'gnutar'). An earlier commit created a work-around for this problem,
but a better solution is to eliminate the use of 'tar' completely.
