This tests basic functionality and also exercises a bug noticed
by Keith Packard, (prune_cache followed by add_index_entry can
trigger an attempt to realloc a pointer into the middle of an
allocated buffer).
Must not modify the_index.cache as it may be passed to realloc at some point.
The index cache is not static, growing as new entries are added. If
entries are added after prune_cache is called, cache will no longer
point at the base of the allocation, and realloc will not be happy.
I verified that this was the only place in the current source which
modified any index_state.cache elements aside from the alloc/realloc
calls in read-cache by changing the type of the element to 'struct
cache_entry ** const cache' and recompiling.
A more efficient patch would create a separate 'cache_base' value to
track the allocation and then fix things up when reallocation was
necessary, instead of the brute-force memmove used here.
We find rename candidates by computing a fingerprint hash of
each file, and then comparing those fingerprints. There are
inherently O(n^2) comparisons, so it pays in CPU time to
hoist the (rather expensive) computation of the fingerprint
out of that loop (or to cache it once we have computed it once).
Previously, we didn't keep the filespec information around
because then we had the potential to consume a great deal of
memory. However, instead of keeping all of the filespec
data, we can instead just keep the fingerprint.
This patch implements and uses diff_free_filespec_data_large
to accomplish that goal. We also have to change
estimate_similarity not to needlessly repopulate the
filespec data when we already have the hash.
Practical tests showed 4.5x speedup for a 10% memory usage
increase.

Make for-each-ref's grab_date() support per-atom formatting
grab_date() gets an extra parameter - atomname; this extra parameter is
checked to see if it has a ":<format>" extra component in it, and if so
that "<format>" string is passed to parse_date_format() to produce an
enum date_mode value which is then further passed to show_date().
In short it allows the user of git-for-each-ref to do things like this:
$ git-for-each-ref --format='%(taggerdate:default)' refs/tags/v1.5.2
Sun May 20 00:30:42 2007 -0700
$ git-for-each-ref --format='%(taggerdate:relative)' refs/tags/v1.5.2

Make for-each-ref allow atom names like "<name>:<something>"
In anticipation of supplying a per-field date format specifier, this
patch makes parse_atom() in builtin-for-each-ref.c allow atoms that have
a valid atom name (as determined by the valid_atom[] table) followed by
a colon, followed by an arbitrary string.
The arbitrary string is where the format for the atom will be specified.
Note, if different formats are specified for the same atom, multiple
entries will be made in the used_atoms table to allow them to be
distinguished by the grab_XXXX() functions.

We used to incorrectly start calculating diffs whenever any argument but
'-z' was recognized by the diff options parsing. That was bogus, since not
all arguments result in diffs being needed, so we just waste a lot of time
and effort on calculating diffs that don't matter.
This actually also fixes another bug in "git log". Try this:
git log -C
and notice how it prints an extra empty line in between log entries, even
though it never prints the actual diff (because we didn't ask for any diff
format, so the diff machinery never prints anything).
With this patch, that bogus empty line is gone, because "revs->diff" is
never set. So this isn't just a "wasted time and effort" issue, it's also
a slight semantic fix.

It might be a sign of source code management gone bad, but when two branches
has diverged almost beyond recognition and time has come for the branches to
merge, the user is going to need all the help his tool can give him. Honoring
diff.renamelimit has great potential as a painkiller in such situations.
The painkiller effect could have been achieved by e.g. 'merge.renamelimit',
but the flexibility gained by a separate option is questionable: our user
would probably expect git to detect renames equally good when merging as
when diffing (I known I did).

This allows a subproject's location to be specified and stored as relative

appending it to the parent project's url when the information is written
to .git/config (i.e., during submodule add for the originator, and
submodule init for a downstream recipient). This allows cloning of the
project to work "as expected" if the project is hosted on a different

gitweb: Remove parse_from_to_diffinfo code from git_patchset_body
In commit 90921740bd00029708370673fdc537522aa48e6f
"gitweb: Split git_patchset_body into separate subroutines"
a part of git_patchset_body code was separated into parse_from_to_diffinfo
subroutine. But instead of replacing the separated code by the call to
mentioned subroutine, the call to subroutine was placed before the separated
code. This patch removes parse_from_to_diffinfo code from git_patchset_body
subroutine.
