Pushing a large number of refs works over most transports,
because we implement send-pack as an internal function.
However, it can sometimes fail when pushing over http,
because we have to spawn "git send-pack --stateless-rpc" to
do the heavy lifting, and we pass each refspec on the
command line. This can cause us to overflow the OS limits on
the size of the command line for a large push.
We can solve this by giving send-pack a --stdin option and
using it from remote-curl. We already dealt with this on
the fetch-pack side in 078b895 (fetch-pack: new --stdin
option to read refs from stdin, 2012-04-02). The stdin
option (and in particular, its use of packet-lines for
stateless-rpc input) is modeled after that solution.

This code was useful when we kept a static list of header
files, and it was easy to forget to update it. Since the last
commit, we generate the list dynamically.
Technically this could still be used to find a dependency
that our dynamic check misses (e.g., a header file without a
".h" extension). But that is reasonably unlikely to be
added, and even less likely to be noticed by this tool
(because it has to be run manually)., It is not worth

In the previous commit, we made add_name_decoration global
so that adders would not have to access the hash directly.
We now make the hash itself static so that callers _have_ to
add through our function, making sure that all additions go
through a single point. To do this, we have to add one more
accessor function: a way to lookup entries in the hash.
Since the only caller doesn't actually look at the returned
value, but rather only asks whether there is a decoration or
not, we could provide only a boolean "has_name_decoration".
That would allow us to make "struct name_decoration" local
to log-tree, as well.
However, it's unlikely to cause any maintainability harm
making the actual data public, and this interface is more
flexible if we need to look at decorations from other parts
of the code in the future.

log-tree: make add_name_decoration a public function
The log-tree code keeps a "struct decoration" hash to show
text decorations for each commit during log traversals. It
makes this available to other files by providing global
access to the hash. This can result in other code adding
entries that do not conform to what log-tree expects.
For example, the bisect code adds its own "dist"
decorations to be shown. Originally the bisect code was
correct, but when the name_decoration code grew a new field
in eb3005e (commit.h: add 'type' to struct name_decoration,
2010-06-19), the bisect code was not updated. As a result,
the log-tree code can access uninitialized memory and even
segfault.
We can fix this by making name_decoration's adding function
public. If all callers use it, then any changes to struct
initialization only need to happen in one place (and because
the members come in as parameters, the compiler can notice a
caller who does not supply enough information).
As a bonus, this also means that the decoration hashes
created by the bisect code will use less memory (previously
we over-allocated space for the distance integer, but now we
format it into a temporary buffer and copy it to the final
flex-array).

Makefile: use `find` to determine static header dependencies
Most modern platforms will use automatically computed header
dependencies to figure out when a C file needs rebuilt due
to a header changing. With old compilers, however, we
fallback to a static list of header files. If any of them
changes, we recompile everything. This is overly
conservative, but the best we can do on older platforms.
It is unfortunately easy for our static header list to grow
stale, as none of the regular developers make use of it.
Instead of trying to keep it up to date, let's invoke "find"
to generate the list dynamically.
Since we do not use the value $(LIB_H) unless either
COMPUTE_HEADER_DEPENDENCIES is turned on or the user is
building "po/git.pot" (where it comes in via $(LOCALIZED_C),
make is smart enough to not even run this "find" in most
cases. However, we do need to stop using the "immediate"
variable assignment ":=" for $(LOCALIZED_C). That's OK,
because it was not otherwise useful here.

i18n: treat "make pot" as an explicitly-invoked target
po/git.pot is normally used as-is and not regenerated by people
building git, so it is okay if an explicit "make po/git.pot" always
automatically regenerates it. Depend on the magic FORCE target
instead of explicitly keeping track of dependencies.
This simplifies the makefile, in particular preparing for a moment
when $(LIB_H), which is part of $(LOCALIZED_C), can be computed on the
fly. It also fixes a slight breakage in which changes to perl and shell
scripts did not trigger a rebuild of po/git.pot.
We still need a dependency on GENERATED_H, to force those files to be

fast-import: clean up pack_data pointer in end_packfile
We have a global pointer pack_data pointing to the current
pack we have open. Inside end_packfile we have two new
pointers, old_p and new_p. The latter points to pack_data,
and the former points to the new "installed" version of the
packfile we get when we hand the file off to the regular
sha1_file machinery. When then free old_p.
Presumably the extra old_p pointer was there so that we
could overwrite pack_data with new_p and still free old_p,
but we don't do that. We just leave pack_data pointing to
bogus memory, and don't overwrite it until we call
start_packfile again (if ever).
This can cause problems for our die routine, which calls
end_packfile to clean things up. If we die at the wrong
moment, we can end up looking at invalid memory in
pack_data left after the last end_packfile().
Instead, let's make sure we set pack_data to NULL after we
free it, and make calling endfile() again with a NULL
pack_data a noop (there is nothing to end).
We can further make things less confusing by dropping old_p
entirely, and moving new_p closer to its point of use.

After we have packed all refs, we prune any loose refs that
correspond to what we packed. We do so by first taking a
lock with lock_ref_sha1, and then deleting the loose ref
file.
However, lock_ref_sha1 will refuse to take a lock on any
refs that exist at the top-level of the "refs/" directory,
and we skip pruning the ref. This is almost certainly not
what we want to happen here. The criteria to be pruned
should not differ from that to be packed; if a ref makes it
to prune_ref, it's because we want it both packed and
pruned (if there are refs you do not want to be packed, they
should be omitted much earlier by pack_ref_is_possible,
which we do in this case if --all is not given).
We can fix this by switching to lock_any_ref_for_update.
This behaves exactly the same with the exception of this

When we do a combined diff, we individually diff against
each parent, and then use intersect_paths to do a parallel
walk through the sorted results and come up with a final
list of interesting paths.
The sort order here is that returned by the diffs, which
means it is in git's tree-order which sorts sub-trees as if
their paths have "/" at the end. When we do our parallel
walk, we need to use a comparison function which provides
the same order.
Since 8518ff8 (combine-diff: optimize combine_diff_path sets
intersection, 2014-01-20), we use a simple strcmp to
compare the pathnames, and get this wrong. It's somewhat
hard to trigger because normally a diff does not produce
tree entries at all, and therefore the sort order is the
same as a strcmp. However, if the "-t" option is used with
the diff, then we will produce diff_filepairs for both trees
and files.
We can use base_name_compare to do the comparison, just as
the tree-diff code does. Even though what we have are not
technically base names (they are full paths within the
tree), the end result is the same (we do not care about
interior slashes at all, only about the final character).
However, since we do not have the length of each path
stored, we take a slight shortcut: if neither of the entries
is a sub-tree then the comparison is equivalent to a strcmp.
This lets us skip the extra strlen calls in the common case
without having to reimplement base_name_compare from
scratch.

pack-objects: turn off bitmaps when we see --shallow lines
Reachability bitmaps do not work with shallow operations,
because they cache a view of the object reachability that
represents the true objects. Whereas a shallow repository
(or a shallow operation in a repository) is inherently
cutting off the object graph with a graft.
We explicitly disallow the use of bitmaps in shallow
repositories by checking is_repository_shallow(), and we
should continue to do that. However, we also want to
disallow bitmaps when we are serving a fetch to a shallow
client, since we momentarily take on their grafted view of
the world.
It used to be enough to call is_repository_shallow at the
start of pack-objects. Upload-pack wrote the other side's
shallow state to a temporary file and pointed the whole
pack-objects process at this state with "git --shallow-file",
and from the perspective of pack-objects, we really were
in a shallow repo. But since b790e0f (upload-pack: send
shallow info over stdin to pack-objects, 2014-03-11), we do
it differently: we send --shallow lines to pack-objects over
stdin, and it registers them itself.
This means that our is_repository_shallow check is way too
early (we have not been told about the shallowness yet), and
that it is insufficient (calling is_repository_shallow is
not enough, as the shallow grafts we register do not change
its return value). Instead, we can just turn off bitmaps
explicitly when we see these lines.

this NUL accounted in the 'len' field as well. Check after #1 and

People who are more clueful about stash's true form can use
"--cc" to override the "-m", and the "--first-parent" will
then do nothing. For diffs, it only affects non-combined

fmt-merge-msg.c resulting in addition of a spurious newline to the `out`
strbuf. Now, the newline addition is skipped as -1 is returned to the caller
if no value is found.

Whitespace breakages are checked while the patch is being parsed.
Disable them at the beginning of parse_chunk(), where each
individual patch is parsed, immediately after we learn the name of
the file the patch applies to and before we start parsing the diff
contained in the patch.
One may naively think that we should be able to not just skip the
whitespace checks but simply fast-forward to the next patch without
doing anything once use_patch() tells us that this patch is not
going to be used. But in reality we cannot really skip much of the
parsing in order to do such a "fast-forward", primarily because
parsing "@@ -k,l +m,n @@" lines and counting the input lines is how
we determine the boundaries of individual patches.
