git-gui: Implement automatic rescan after Tool execution.
The Tools menu is generally intended for commands that
affect the working directory or repository state. Thus,
the user would usually want to initiate rescan after
execution of a tool. This commit implements it.
In case somebody would want to avoid rescanning after
certain tools, it also adds an option that controls it,
although it is not made available through the Add dialog.

git-gui: Allow Tools request arguments from the user.
While static commands are already useful, some tools need
additional parameters to reach maximum usability. This
commit adds support for passing them one revision name
parameter, and one arbitrary string. With this addition,
the tools menu becomes flexible enough to implement basic
rebase support:
[core]
editor = kwrite
[guitool "Rebase/Abort"]
cmd = git rebase --abort
confirm = yes
[guitool "Rebase/Continue"]
cmd = git rebase --continue
[guitool "Rebase/Skip Commit"]
cmd = git rebase --skip
confirm = yes
[guitool "Rebase/Start..."]
cmd = git rebase $ARGS $REVISION $CUR_BRANCH
title = Start Rebase
prompt = Rebase Current Branch
argprompt = Flags
revprompt = New Base
revunmerged = yes
Some of the options, like title or prompt, are intentionally
not included in the Add dialog to avoid clutter. Also, the
dialog handles argprompt and revprompt as boolean vars.

Due to the emphasis on scriptability in the git
design, it is impossible to provide 100% complete
GUI. Currently unaccounted areas include git-svn
and other source control system interfaces, TopGit,
all custom scripts.
This problem can be mitigated by providing basic
customization capabilities in Git Gui. This commit
adds a new Tools menu, which can be configured
to contain items invoking arbitrary shell commands.
The interface is powerful enough to allow calling
both batch text programs like git-svn, and GUI editors.
To support the latter use, the commands have access
to the name of the currently selected file through
the environment.

git-gui: Fix the after callback execution in rescan.
The rescan function receives a callback command
as its parameter, which is supposed to be executed
after the scan finishes. It is generally used to
update status. However, rescan may initiate a
loading of a diff, which always calls ui_ready after
completion. If the after handler is called before
that, ui_ready will override the new status.
This commit ensures that the after callback is
properly threaded through the diff machinery.
Since it uncovered the fact that force_first_diff
actually didn't work due to an undeclared global
variable, and the desired effects appeared only
because of the race condition between the diff
system and the rescan callback, I also reimplement
this function to make it behave as originally
intended.

With the old implementation any system-wide options appear

the fact that simple 'git config' lists all values, while
'git config --global' only values set in ~/.gitconfig,

git-gui: Do not munge conflict marker lines in a normal diff
Previously, conflict markers were highlighted in two ways: (1) They
received a distinguishing color; and (2) they had the '+' removed at the
beginning of the line. However, by doing (2), a hunk that contained
conflict markers could not be staged or unstaged because the resulting
patch was corrupted. With this change we no longer modify the diff text
of a 2-way diff, so that "Stage Hunk" and friends work.
Note that 3-way diff of a conflicted file is unaffected by this change,
and '++' before conflict markers is still removed. But this has no negative
impact because in this mode staging hunks or lines is disabled anyway.

git-gui: Assume `blame --incremental` output is in UTF-8
Most commits have author name encoded in UTF-8, but the incremental
blame output dumps raw bytes and doesn't give us the encoding header

This is still going to cause problems when the author name is not
encoded in UTF-8, but the only (efficient) way to solve that is to
add an "encoding" header to the blame --incremental mode output,

which is wrong no matter how you look at it.
This really should be a per-file attribute, managed by .gitattributes,
so we now pull the "encoding" attribute data for the given path from
the .gitattributes (if available) and use that, falling back to UTF-8
if the attributes are unavailable, git-check-attr is broken, or an
encoding for this path not specified.
We apply the encoding anytime we show file content, which currently
is limited to only the diff viewer and the blame viewer.

the files in our library are platform independent and may
be reused across systems, like any other content stored in
the share directory.
Our computation of where our library should install to was broken
when git itself started installing to $prefix/libexec/git-core,
which was one level down from where we expected it to be.

git-gui: Fix gitk search in $PATH to work on Windows
Back in 15430be5a1 ("Look for gitk in $PATH, not $LIBEXEC/git-core")
git-gui learned to use [_which gitk] to locate where gitk's script
is as Git 1.6 will install gitk to $prefix/bin (in $PATH) and all
of the other tools are in $gitexecdir.
This failed on Windows because _which adds the ".exe" suffix as it
searches for the program on $PATH, under the assumption that we can
only execute something from Tcl if it is a proper Windows executable.
When scanning for gitk on Windows we need to omit the ".exe" suffix.

It is especially useful for Stage/Unstage Line, because
they invoke full state scan and diff reload, which originally
would reset the scroll position to the top of the file.

git-gui: "Stage Line": Treat independent changes in adjacent lines better
Assume that we want to commit these states:
Old state == HEAD Intermediate state New state
--------------------------------------------------------
context before context before context before
old 1 new 1 new 1
old 2 old 2 new 2
context after context after context after
that is, want to commit two changes in this order:
1. transform "old 1" into "new 1"
2. transform "old 2" into "new 2"
[This discussion and this patch is about this very case and one other case
as outlined below; any other intermediate states that one could imagine are
not affected by this patch.]
Now assume further, that we have not staged and commited anything, but we
have already changed the working file to the new state. Then we will see
this hunk in the "Unstaged Changes":
@@ -1,4 +1,4 @@
context before
-old 1
-old 2
+new 1
+new 2
context after
The obvious way to stage the intermediate state is to apply "Stage This
Line" to "-old 1" and "+new 1". Unfortunately, this resulted in this
intermediate state:
context before
old 2
new 1
context after
which is not what we wanted. In fact, it was impossible to stage the
intermediate state using "Stage Line". The crux was that if a "+" line was
staged, then the "-" lines were converted to context lines and arranged
*before* the "+" line in the forged hunk that we fed to 'git apply'.
With this patch we now treat "+" lines that are staged differently. In
particular, the "-" lines before the "+" block are moved *after* the
staged "+" line. Now it is possible to get the correct intermediate state
by staging "-old 1" and "+new 1". Problem solved.
But there is a catch.
Noticing that we didn't get the right intermediate state by staging
"-old 1" and "+new 1", we could have had the idea to stage the complete
hunk and to *unstage* "-old 2" and "+new 2". But... the result is the same.
The reason is that there is the exact symmetric problem with unstaging the
last "-" and "+" line that are in adjacent blocks of "-" and "+" lines.
This patch does *not* change the way in which "-" lines are *unstaged*.
Why? Because if we did (i.e. move "+" lines before the "-" line after
converting them to context lines), then it would be impossible to stage
this intermediate state:
context before
old 1
new 2
context after
that is, it would be impossible to stage the two independet changes in the
opposite order.
Let's look at this case a bit further: The obvious way to get this
intermediate state would be to apply "Stage This Line" to "-old 2" and
"+new 2". Before this patch, this worked as expected. With this patch, it
does not work as expected, but it can still be achieved by first staging
the entire hunk, then *unstaging* "-old 1" and "+new 1".
In summary, this patch makes a common case possible, at the expense that
a less common case is made more complicated for the user.

git-gui: Fix "Stage/Unstage Line" with one line of context.
To "Stage/Unstage Line" we construct a patch that contains exactly one
change (either addition or removal); the hunk header was forged by counting
the old side and adjusting the count by +/-1 for the new side. But when we
counted the context we never counted the changed line itself. If the hunk
had only one removal line and one line of context, like this:
@@ -1,3 +1,2 @@
context 1
-removal
context 2
We had constructed this patch:
@@ -1,2 +1,1 @@
context 1
-removal
context 2
which does not apply because git apply deduces that it must apply at the
end of the file. ("context 2" is considered garbage and ignored.) The fix
is that removal lines must be counted towards the context of the old side.

git-gui: Correct 'Visualize Branches' on Mac OS X to start gitk
In Git 1.6 and later gitk is in $prefix/bin while git-gui and all
of the other commands are in $gitexecdir, which is typically not
the same as $prefix/bin. So we cannot launch $gitexecdir/gitk and
expect it to actually start gitk properly.
By allowing git-gui to locate the script via $PATH and then using
exactly that path when we source it during the application start
we can correctly run gitk on any Git 1.5 or later.

Add a menu item to invoke full copy detection in blame.
Add a context menu item to invoke blame -C -C -C on a chunk
of the file. The results are used to update the 'original
location' column of the blame display.
The chunk is computed as the smallest line range that covers
both the 'last change' and 'original location' ranges of the
line that was clicked to open the menu.

Currently 'git-gui blame' does not kill its back-end
process, hoping that it will die anyway when the pipe
is closed. However, in some cases the process works
for a long time without producing any output. This
behavior results in a runaway CPU hog.

git-gui: MERGE_RR lives in .git/ directly with newer Git versions
Now that MERGE_RR was moved out of .git/rr-cache/, we have to delete
it somewhere else. Just in case somebody wants to use a newer git-gui
with an older Git, the file .git/rr-cache/MERGE_RR is removed, too (if
it exists).

This adds a context menu entry below "Stage/Unstage Hunk" that stages or
unstages just the line under the mouse pointer.
This is by itself useful, for example, if there are unrelated changes in
the same hunk and the hunk cannot be split by reducing the context.
The feature can also be used to split a hunk by staging a number of
additions (or unstaging a number of removals) until there are enough
context lines that the hunk gets split.
The implementation reads the complete hunk that the line lives in, and
constructs a new hunk by picking existing context lines, removing unneeded
change lines and transforming other change lines to context lines. The
resulting hunk is fed through 'git apply' just like in the "Stage/Unstage
Hunk" case.

git-gui: Don't select the wrong file if the last listed file is staged.
Johannes Sixt noticed that if the last file in the list was staged, my
earlier patch would display the diff for the penultimate file, but show
the file _before_ that as being selected.
This was due to my misunderstanding the lno argument to show_diff.
This patch fixes the problem: lno is not decremented in the special case
to handle the last item in the list (though we still need to use $lno-1
to find the right path for the next diff).
