2092678cd5 name-hash.c: fix endless loop with core.ignorecase=true
With core.ignorecase=true, name-hash.c builds a case insensitive index of
all tracked directories. Currently, the existing cache entry structures are
added multiple times to the same hashtable (with different name lengths and
hash codes). However, there's only one dir_next pointer, which gets
completely messed up in case of hash collisions. In the worst case, this
causes an endless loop if ce == ce->dir_next (see t7062).

Use a separate hashtable and separate structures for the directory index
so that each directory entry has its own next pointer. Use reference
counting to track which directory entry contains files.

There are only slight changes to the name-hash.c API:
- new free_name_hash() used by read_cache.c::discard_index()
- remove_name_hash() takes an additional index_state parameter
- index_name_exists() for a directory (trailing '/') may return a cache
  entry that has been removed (CE_UNHASHED). This is not a problem as the
  return value is only used to check if the directory exists (dir.c) or to
  normalize casing of directory names (read-cache.c).

Getting rid of cache_entry.dir_next reduces memory consumption, especially
with core.ignorecase=false (which doesn't use that member at all).

With core.ignorecase=true, building the directory index is slightly faster
as we add / check the parent directory first (instead of going through all
directory levels for each file in the index). E.g. with WebKit (~200k
files, ~7k dirs), time spent in lazy_init_name_hash is reduced from 176ms
to 130ms.

dd281f09b7 diff: prevent pprint_rename from underrunning input
The logic described in d020e27 (diff: Fix rename pretty-print when
suffix and prefix overlap, 2013-02-23) is wrong: The proof in the
comment is valid only if both strings are the same length.  *One* of
old/new can reach a-1 (b-1, resp.) if 'a' is a suffix of 'b' (or vice
versa).

Since the intent was to let the loop run down to the '/' at the end of
the common prefix, fix it by making that distinction explicit: if
there is no prefix, allow no underrun.

d020e27fda diff: Fix rename pretty-print when suffix and prefix overlap
When considering a rename for two files that have a suffix and a prefix
that can overlap, a confusing line is shown. As an example, renaming
"a/b/b/c" to "a/b/c" shows "a/b/{ => }/b/c".

Currently, what we do is calculate the common prefix ("a/b/"), and the
common suffix ("/b/c"), but the same "/b/" is actually counted both in
prefix and suffix. Then when calculating the size of the non-common part,
we end-up with a negative value which is reset to 0, thus the "{ => }".

Do not allow the common suffix to overlap the common prefix and stop
when reaching a "/" that would be in both.

712c6adaee Git.pm: fix cat_blob crashes on large files
Read and write each 1024 byte buffer, rather than trying to buffer
the entire content of the file.  We are only copying the contents to
a file descriptor and do not use it ourselves.

Previous code would crash on all files > 2 Gib, when the offset
variable became negative (perhaps below the level of perl),
resulting in a crash.  On a 32 bit system, or a system with low
memory it might crash before reaching 2 GiB due to memory
exhaustion.

This code may leave a partial file behind in case of failure, where
the old code would leave a completely empty file.  Neither version
verifies the correctness of the content.  Calling code must take
care of verification and cleanup.

7ec30aaa5b Provide a mechanism to turn off symlink resolution in ceiling paths
Commit 1b77d83cab 'setup_git_directory_gently_1(): resolve symlinks
in ceiling paths' changed the setup code to resolve symlinks in the
entries in GIT_CEILING_DIRECTORIES.  Because those entries are
compared textually to the symlink-resolved current directory, an
entry in GIT_CEILING_DIRECTORIES that contained a symlink would have
no effect.  It was known that this could cause performance problems
if the symlink resolution *itself* touched slow filesystems, but it
was thought that such use cases would be unlikely.  The intention of
the earlier change was to deal with a case when the user has this:

	GIT_CEILING_DIRECTORIES=/home/gitster

but in reality, /home/gitster is a symbolic link to somewhere else,
e.g. /net/machine/home4/gitster. A textual comparison between the
specified value /home/gitster and the location getcwd(3) returns
would not help us, but readlink("/home/gitster") would still be
fast.

After this change was released, Anders Kaseorg <andersk@mit.edu>
reported:

> [...] my computer has been acting so slow when I’m not connected to
> the network.  I put various network filesystem paths in
> $GIT_CEILING_DIRECTORIES, such as
> /afs/athena.mit.edu/user/a/n/andersk (to avoid hitting its parents
> /afs/athena.mit.edu, /afs/athena.mit.edu/user/a, and
> /afs/athena.mit.edu/user/a/n which all live in different AFS
> volumes).  Now when I’m not connected to the network, every
> invocation of Git, including the __git_ps1 in my shell prompt, waits
> for AFS to timeout.

To allow users to work around this problem, give them a mechanism to
turn off symlink resolution in GIT_CEILING_DIRECTORIES entries.  All
the entries that follow an empty entry will not be checked for symbolic
links and used literally in comparison.  E.g. with these:

	GIT_CEILING_DIRECTORIES=:/foo/bar:/xyzzy or
	GIT_CEILING_DIRECTORIES=/foo/bar::/xyzzy

we will not readlink("/xyzzy") because it comes after an empty entry.

With the former (but not with the latter), "/foo/bar" comes after an
empty entry, and we will not readlink it, either.

7f1b697632 Makefile: avoid infinite loop on configure.ac change
If you are using autoconf and change the configure.ac, the
Makefile will notice that config.status is older than
configure.ac, and will attempt to rebuild and re-run the
configure script to pick up your changes. The first step in
doing so is to run "make configure". Unfortunately, this
tries to include config.mak.autogen, which depends on
config.status, which depends on configure.ac; so we must
rebuild config.status. Which leads to us running "make
configure", and so on.

It's easy to demonstrate with:

  make configure
  ./configure
  touch configure.ac
  make

We can break this cycle by not re-invoking make to build
"configure", and instead just putting its rules inline into
our config.status rebuild procedure.  We can avoid a copy by
factoring the rules into a make variable.
