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
but in 8.4 using incr on a non-existing variable raises an error. Ensure
we have created our counter variable when creating the tabbed dialog for
non-themed preferences.

In early days, all projects managed by git (except for git itself) had the
product of a fairly mature development history in their first commit, and
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).
Teach gitk to respect log.showroot.

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.
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

When commit 6e2dda35 (Add new keybindings, 2005-09-22) added vi-style
keybindings to gitk (an excellent idea!), instead of adopting the
usual "hjkl = left, down, up, right" bindings used by less, vi, rogue,
and many other programs, it used "ijkl = up, left, down, right" to
mimic the inverted-T formation of the arrow keys on a qwerty keyboard,
in the style of Lode runner. So using 'j' and 'k' to scroll through
commits produces utterly confusing results to the vi user, as 'k'
moves down and 'j' moves to the previous commit.
Luckily most non-vi-users are probably using an alternate set of keys
(cursor keys or z/x + n/p) anyway. Switch to the expected vi/nethack
convention.

gitk: Make "touching paths" search support backslashes
Gitk can search for commits touching a specified path. The search text is
always treated as a regular expression, regardless of the matching option
selected (Exact, IgnCase, or Regexp). In particular, backslashes escape
the next character. This is inconvenient on Windows systems, where backslashes
are the norm for path specifiers, for example when copy/pasting from
Windows Explorer or a cmd shell -- these copy-pasted paths must be manually
modified in the gitk search text edit box before they will work.
This change uses the match option "Exact" to mean that a slash is a slash,
not part of a regular expression. Backslashes are converted to frontslashes
before searching, thus allowing easy copy/pasting of paths on Windows
systems. If the previous behaviour of "touching paths" search is desired,
simply select the "Regexp" search mode.
One potential drawback is that the default setting for the match option
($findtype in the code) is "Exact", and so this change alters the default
behaviour, which may confuse users and lead to bug reports.

Since 5024baa ([PATCH] Make gitk work when launched in a subdirectory,
2007-01-09), gitk has used 'git rev-parse --git-dir' to find the .git
directory. However, gitk still first checks for the $GIT_DIR
environment variable and that the value returned from git-rev-parse
does not point to a file. Since git-rev-parse does both of these
checks already, the checks can safely be removed from gitk. This makes
the gitdir procedure small enough to inline.
This cleanup introduces a UI regression in that the error message will
now be "Cannot find a git repository here." even in the case where
GIT_DIR points to a file, for which the error message was previously
"Cannot find the git directory \"%s\".". It should be noted, though,
that even before this patch, 'gitk --git-dir=path/to/some/file' would
give the former error message.

close statements in getblobdiffline.
At present this only removes the temporary files when gitk exits. It
should remove them when the diff is done.
gitk: Add a user preference to enable/disable use of themed widgets
Also move the hide-remotes option up into the commit display options
in the Edit->Preferences panel, since it affects the commit display
more than the diff display.
We only accepted either SHA1s or heads/tags that have been read. This
meant the user could not, e.g., enter HEAD to go back to the current
commit.
This adds code to call out to git rev-parse --verify if all other
methods of interpreting the string the user entered fail.
(git-rev-parse alone is not enough as we really want a single
revision.)
The error paths change slighly, because we now know from the rev-parse
invocation whether the expression was valid at all. The previous
"unknown" path is now only triggered if the revision does exist, but
is not in the current view display.

gitk: Fix direction of symmetric difference in optimized mode
ee66e08 (gitk: Make updates go faster, 2008-05-09) implemented an
optimized mode where gitk parses the arguments with rev-parse, and
manually reads history in chunks. As mentioned in the commit message,
symmetric differences are a problem there:
One wrinkle is that we have to turn symmetric diff arguments (of the
form a...b) back into symmetric diff form so that --left-right still
works, as git rev parse turns a...b into a b ^merge_base(a,b).
However, git-rev-parse returns a...b in the swapped order
b a ^merge_base(a,b)
This has been the case since at least 1f8115b (the state of master at
the time of the abovementioned ee66e08; Merge branch 'maint',
2008-05-08). So gitk flipped the sides of symmetric differences
whenever it was in optimized mode.
Fix this by swapping the sides of the reconstruction code.

In repositories with lots of remotes, looking at the history in gitk
can be borderline insane with all the red labels for remote refs.
Introduce a new option in the preferences that makes gitk ignore
remote refs entirely, so they don't take up space in the display.

gitk: Do not hard-code "encoding" in attribute lookup functions
Commit 39ee47e (Clean up file encoding code and add enable/disable option,
2008-10-15) rewrote the attribute lookup functions gitattr and
cache_gitattr, but in the process hard-coded the attribute name "encoding"
instead of using the functions' parameters. This fixes it.
This is not a serious regression because currently all callers look only
for "encoding".
Further note that this fix assumes that future callers will not pass an
attribute name that contains regex special characters.

gitk: Add option 'Simple history' to the options menu
When clicked, the option --simplify-by-decoration is added to gitk/git log.
This yields to a simplified history where only decorated commits are shown,
i.e. those with a yellow tag or a green branch flag.

gitk: Handle msysGit version during version comparisons
msysGit generates version strings with text appended which cannot

Limit git_version to the first three digits which are the real git

gitk: Make more options easily accessible from Edit View dialog
Commit 218a900bd8efd0d49f8a0d9491aa4786a998d4f4 added a number of new
individual fields for the Edit View dialog to make them more accessible
to end users, while still allowing all options to be specified in the
"arguments to git log" field. This extends the dialog further, to
include refs, author, committer, commit message, and patch contents.
As before everything still remains accessible from the "arguments to
git log" input field.
Additionally, this provides hints for the format of the various input
fields (for example, listing some sample date strings in different
formats), and puts related query items into subsections to make it
easier to digest the number of options that exist.

gitk: Check git version before using --textconv flag
Commit 785b7535 ("gitk: use --textconv to generate diff text")
added the --textconv flag to the git diff commands used to
display commit diffs. Since some people use newer gitk with older
git installations, this adds a check on the git version to check
that it understands --textconv before using it.
For the most part gitk's focus is on showing history and changes in
a human readable form. For this reason, it makes sense to generate
the patch text in the diff view using --textconv so that textconv
drivers are used if they are defined.
gitk can also generate patches, but we do not use --textconv because
such patches could not be applied.

With Tk 8.5+, this uses the themed widgets to improve the appearance
on Windows and MacOSX. On X11 less difference is apparent, but users
can select alternate themes by setting *TkTheme in the resource
database (eg: *TkTheme: clam).
With Tk 8.6 there is a built-in font selection dialog. This will make
use of that when available, as on Windows and MacOSX it calls the
native font selection dialog.

gitk: Fix compare-commits function when we have local changes
This fixes a bug in the compare-commits function added in commit 010509f2 ("gitk: Add a command to compare two strings of commits")
where gitk would show an error dialog if the comparison of commits
got to a fake commit (one showing local changes). It extends
getpatchid to handle these fake commits by using [diffcmd] to get
the git diff command variant to use, and also handles the situation
where an error occurs.
Now that we can have the fake commit IDs showing up, which are
00..00 and 00..01, the short ID is ambiguous. To make sure the links
point to the right commit, this adds a new [appendshortlink] procedure
which takes the full link destination, and uses that rather than
appendwithlinks.
gitk: Avoid crash if closed while reading references
As recorded in msysGit issue 125, if the user closes gitk while it
reports itself as still reading references then Tk will crash in the
geometry management code. This has been fixed for Tk 8.5.7 and above.
This patch avoids the problem by flushing outstanding geometry events
before calling the readrefs procedure.

gitk: Handle external diff tool with spaces in the path
This fixes the launching of external diff to handle a diff tool
that has spaces in the path. This ensures a correctly formed
tcl list is passed to the open command with a single pipe character
prefixing the list (as per the tcl manual page for open).
The specific fault observed was that selecting WinMerge as the diff
tool from the default installed location in Program Files failed to
be launched from the context menu.
