The thing is, if the output buffer is empty, we should *still* actually
use the zlib routines to *unpack* that empty output buffer.
But we had a test that said "only unpack if we still expect more output".
So we wouldn't use up all the zlib stream, because we felt that we didn't
need it, because we already had all the bytes we wanted. And it was
"true": we did have all the output data. We just needed to also eat all
the input data!
We've had this bug before - thinking that we don't need to inflate()
anything because we already had it all..

This is mainly just a cleanup patch, and sets up for later changes where
the tree-diff.c "interesting()" function can return more than just a
yes/no value.
In particular, it should be quite possible to say "no subsequent entries
in this tree can possibly be interesting any more", and thus allow the
callers to short-circuit the tree entirely.
In fact, changing the callers to do so is trivial, and is really all this
patch really does, because changing "interesting()" itself to say that
nothing further is going to be interesting is definitely more complicated,
considering that we may have arbitrary pathspecs.
But in cleaning up the callers, this actually fixes a potential small
performance issue in diff_tree(): if the second tree has a lot of
uninterestign crud in it, we would keep on doing the "is it interesting?"
check on the first tree for each uninteresting entry in the second one.
The answer is obviously not going to change, so that was just not helping.
The new code is clearer and simpler and avoids this issue entirely.
I also renamed "interesting()" to "tree_entry_interesting()", because I
got frustrated by the fact that
- we actually had *another* function called "interesting()" in another
file, and I couldn't tell from the profiles which one was the one that
mattered more.
- when rewriting it to return a ternary value, you can't just do
if (interesting(...))
...
any more, but want to assign the return value to a local variable. The
name of choice for that variable would normally be "interesting", so
I just wanted to make the function name be more specific, and avoid
that whole issue (even though I then didn't choose that name for either
of the users, just to avoid confusion in the patch itself ;)
In other words, this doesn't really change anything, but I think it's a
good thing to do, and if somebody comes along and writes the logic for
"yeah, none of the pathspecs you have are interesting", we now support
that trivially.
It could easily be a meaningful optimization for things like "blame",
where there's just one pathspec, and stopping when you've seen it would
allow you to avoid about 50% of the tree traversals on average.

This makes "track_tree_refs()" use the same "tree_entry()" function for
counting the entries as it does for actually traversing them a few lines
later.
Not a biggie, but the reason I care was that this was the only user of
"update_tree_entry()" that didn't actually *extract* the tree entry first.
It doesn't matter as things stand now, but it meant that a separate
test-patch I had that avoided a few more "strlen()" calls by just saving
the entry length in the entry descriptor and using it directly when
updating wouldn't work without this patch.

The new configuration variable core.deltaBaseCacheLimit allows the
user to control how much memory they are willing to give to Git for
caching base objects of deltas. This is not normally meant to be
a user tweakable knob; the "out of the box" settings are meant to
be suitable for almost all workloads.
We default to 16 MiB under the assumption that the cache is not
meant to consume all of the user's available memory, and that the
cache's main purpose was to cache trees, for faster path limiters
during revision traversal. Since trees tend to be relatively small
objects, this relatively small limit should still allow a large
number of objects.
On the other hand we don't want the cache to start storing 200
different versions of a 200 MiB blob, as this could easily blow
the entire address space of a 32 bit process.
We evict OBJ_BLOB from the cache first (credit goes to Junio) as
we want to favor OBJ_TREE within the cache. These are the objects
that have the highest inflate() startup penalty, as they tend to
be small and thus don't have that much of a chance to ammortize
that penalty over the entire data.

This is a micro-optimization that grew out of the mailing list discussion
about "strlen()" showing up in profiles.
We used to pass regular C strings around to the low-level tree walking
routines, and while this worked fine, it meant that we needed to call
strlen() on strings that the caller always actually knew the size of
anyway.
So pass the length of the string down wih the string, and avoid
unnecessary calls to strlen(). Also, when extracting a pathname from a
tree entry, use "tree_entry_len()" instead of strlen(), since the length
of the pathname is directly calculable from the decoded tree entry itself
without having to actually do another strlen().
This shaves off another ~5-10% from some loads that are very tree
intensive (notably doing commit filtering by a pathspec).

Such a builtin remote simplifies the operation of "git-fetch",
which will populate FETCH_HEAD but will not pretend that two
repositories are in use, will not create a thin pack, and will
not perform any useless remapping of names. The speed
improvement is around 20%, and it should improve more if
"git-fetch" is converted to a builtin.
To this end, git-parse-remote is grown with a new kind of
remote, 'builtin'. In git-fetch.sh, we treat the builtin remote
specially in that it needs no pack/store operations. In fact,
doing git-fetch on a builtin remote will simply populate
FETCH_HEAD appropriately.
The patch also improves of the --track/--no-track support,
extending it so that branch.<name>.remote items referring '.'
can be created. Finally, it fixes a typo in git-checkout.sh.

try-to-simplify-commit: use diff-tree --quiet machinery.
This uses diff-tree --quiet machinery to terminate the internal
diff-tree between a commit and its parents via revs.pruning (not
revs.diffopt) as soon as we find enough about the tree change.
With respect to the optionally given pathspec, we are interested
if the tree of commit is identical to the parent's, only adds
new paths to the parent's, or there are other differences. As
soon as we find out that there is one such other kind of
difference, we do not have to compare the rest of the tree.
Because we do not call standard diff_addremove/diff_change, we
instruct the diff-tree machinery to stop early by setting
has_changes when we say we found the trees to be different.
This adds the command line option 'quiet' to tell 'git diff-*'
that we are not interested in the actual diff contents but only
want to know if there is any change. This option automatically
turns --exit-code on, and turns off output formatting, as it
does not make much sense to show the first hit we happened to
have found.
The --quiet option is silently turned off (but --exit-code is
still in effect, so is silent output) if postprocessing filters
such as pickaxe and diff-filter are used. For all practical
purposes I do not think of a reason to want to use these filters
and not viewing the diff output.
The backends have not been taught about the option with this patch.
That is a topic for later rounds.
This introduces a new command-line option: --exit-code. The diff
programs will return 1 for differences, return 0 for equality, and
something else for errors.

update-hook: fix incorrect use of git-describe and sed for finding previous tag
Previously git-describe would output lines of the form v1.1.1-gf509d56
The update hook found the dash and stripped it off using
sed 's/-g.*//'
The remainder was then used as the previous tag name.
However, git-describe has changed format. The output is now of the form v1.1.1-23-gf509d56
The above sed fragment doesn't strip the middle "-23", and so the
previous tag name used would be "v1.1.1-23". This is incorrect.
Since the hook script was written, git-describe now gained support for
"--abbrev=0", which it uses as a special flag to tell it not to output
anything other than the nearest tag name. This patch fixes the problem,
and prevents any future recurrence by using this new flag rather than
sed to find the previous tag.

If you use scanf or sscanf to parse integers, your code probably
accepts bogus inputs. For example, builtin-grep (aka git-grep) uses
sscanf(scan, "%u", &num) to parse the integer argument to -A, -B, -C.
Currently, "-C 1,000" and "-C 4294967297" are both treated just like
"-C 1":
$ git-grep -h -C 4294967297 juggle
out and you may find it easier to switch back and forth if you
juggle multiple lines of development simultaneously. Of
course, you will pay the price of more disk usage to hold
The obvious fix is to use strtoul instead. But using a bare strtoul is
too messy, at least when done properly, so I've added a wrapper function.
The new function in the patch below belongs elsewhere if it would be
useful in replacing any of the four remaining uses of sscanf.
One final note: With this change, I get a slightly different
diagnostic depending on the context size:
A common convention that makes it easy to identify the source
of a diagnostic is to include the program name before the first ":".
Whether that should be "git" or "git-grep" is another question.
Using "grep" or "fatal" is misleading.

- decode and filter base64 patches correctly
- various other accidental fixes

When building up a tree for a commit, fast-import
dynamically allocates memory for the tree entries. When more
space is needed, the allocated memory is increased by a
constant amount. For very large trees, this means
re-allocating and memcpy()ing the memory O(n) times.
To compound this problem, releasing the previous tree
resource does not free the memory; it is kept in a pool
for future trees. This means that each of the O(n)
allocations will consume increasing amounts of memory,
giving O(n^2) memory consumption.
