60d24dd255 Makefile: fold XDIFF_H and VCSSVN_H into LIB_H
Just like MISC_H (see previous commit), there is no reason to track
xdiff and vcs-svn headers separately from the rest of the headers.
The only purpose of these variables is to keep track of recompilation
dependencies.

As a pleasant side effect, folding these into LIB_H lets us stop
tracking GIT_OBJS and VCSSVN_TEST_OBJS separately from the list of all
OBJECTS.

76759c7dff git on Mac OS and precomposed unicode
Mac OS X mangles file names containing unicode on file systems HFS+,
VFAT or SAMBA.  When a file using unicode code points outside ASCII
is created on a HFS+ drive, the file name is converted into
decomposed unicode and written to disk. No conversion is done if
the file name is already decomposed unicode.

Calling open("\xc3\x84", ...) with a precomposed "Ä" yields the same
result as open("\x41\xcc\x88",...) with a decomposed "Ä".

As a consequence, readdir() returns the file names in decomposed
unicode, even if the user expects precomposed unicode.  Unlike on
HFS+, Mac OS X stores files on a VFAT drive (e.g. an USB drive) in
precomposed unicode, but readdir() still returns file names in
decomposed unicode.  When a git repository is stored on a network
share using SAMBA, file names are send over the wire and written to
disk on the remote system in precomposed unicode, but Mac OS X
readdir() returns decomposed unicode to be compatible with its
behaviour on HFS+ and VFAT.

The unicode decomposition causes many problems:

- The names "git add" and other commands get from the end user may
  often be precomposed form (the decomposed form is not easily input
  from the keyboard), but when the commands read from the filesystem
  to see what it is going to update the index with already is on the
  filesystem, readdir() will give decomposed form, which is different.

- Similarly "git log", "git mv" and all other commands that need to
  compare pathnames found on the command line (often but not always
  precomposed form; a command line input resulting from globbing may
  be in decomposed) with pathnames found in the tree objects (should
  be precomposed form to be compatible with other systems and for
  consistency in general).

- The same for names stored in the index, which should be
  precomposed, that may need to be compared with the names read from
  readdir().

NFS mounted from Linux is fully transparent and does not suffer from
the above.

As Mac OS X treats precomposed and decomposed file names as equal,
we can

 - wrap readdir() on Mac OS X to return the precomposed form, and

 - normalize decomposed form given from the command line also to the
   precomposed form,

to ensure that all pathnames used in Git are always in the
precomposed form.  This behaviour can be requested by setting
"core.precomposedunicode" configuration variable to true.

The code in compat/precomposed_utf8.c implements basically 4 new
functions: precomposed_utf8_opendir(), precomposed_utf8_readdir(),
precomposed_utf8_closedir() and precompose_argv().  The first three
are to wrap opendir(3), readdir(3), and closedir(3) functions.

The argv[] conversion allows to use the TAB filename completion done
by the shell on command line.  It tolerates other tools which use
readdir() to feed decomposed file names into git.

When creating a new git repository with "git init" or "git clone",
"core.precomposedunicode" will be set "false".

The user needs to activate this feature manually.  She typically
sets core.precomposedunicode to "true" on HFS and VFAT, or file
systems mounted via SAMBA.

c0f86547c5 index-pack: Disable threading on cygwin
The Cygwin implementation of pread() is not thread-safe since, just
like the emulation provided by compat/pread.c, it uses a sequence of
seek-read-seek calls. In order to avoid failues due to thread-safety
issues, commit b038a61 disables threading when NO_PREAD is defined.
(ie when using the emulation code in compat/pread.c).

We introduce a new build variable, NO_THREAD_SAFE_PREAD, which allows
use to disable the threaded index-pack code on cygwin, in addition to
the above NO_PREAD case.

b8ba629264 Makefile: fold MISC_H into LIB_H
We keep a list of most of the header files in LIB_H, but
some are split out into MISC_H. The original point
of LIB_H was that it would force recompilation of C files
when any of the library headers changed. It was
over-encompassing, since not all C files included all of the
library headers; this made it simple to maintain, but meant
that we sometimes recompiled when it was not necessary.

Over time, some new headers were omitted from LIB_H, and
rules were added to the Makefile for a few specific targets
to explicitly depend on them. This avoided some unnecessary
recompilation at the cost of having to maintain the
dependency list of those targets manually (e.g., d349a03).

Later, we needed a complete list of headers from which we
should extract strings to localized. Thus 1b8b2e4 introduced
MISC_H to mention all header files not included in LIB_H,
and the concatenation of the two lists is fed to xgettext.
Headers mentioned as dependencies must also be manually
added to MISC_H to receive the benefits of localization.

Having to update multiple locations manually is a pain and
has led to errors. For example, see "git log -Swt-status.h
Makefile" for some back-and-forth between the two locations.
Or the fact that column.h was never added to MISC_H, and
therefore was not localized (which is fixed by this patch).
Moreover, the benefits of keeping these few headers out of
LIB_H is not that great, for two reasons:

  1. The better way to do this is by auto-computing the
     dependencies, which is more accurate and less work to
     maintain. If your compiler supports it, we turn on
     computed header dependencies by default these days. So
     these manual dependencies are used only for people who
     do not have gcc at all (which increases the chance of
     them becoming stale, as many developers will never even
     use them).

  2. Even if you do not have gcc, the manual header
     dependencies do not help all that much.  They obviously
     cannot help with an initial compilation (since their
     purpose is to avoid unnecessary recompilation when a
     header changes), which means they are only useful when
     building a new version of git in the working tree that
     held an existing build (e.g., after checkout or during a
     bisection). But since a change of a header in LIB_H
     will force recompilation, and given that the vast
     majority of headers are in LIB_H, most version changes
     will result in a full rebuild anyway.

Let's just fold MISC_H into LIB_H and get rid of these
manual rules. The worst case is some extra compilation, but
even that is unlikely to matter due to the reasons above.

The one exception is that we should keep common-cmds.h
separate. Because it is generated, the computed dependencies
do not handle it properly, and we must keep separate
individual dependencies on it. Let's therefore rename MISC_H
to GENERATED_H to make it more clear what should go in it.

bf17126211 docs: drop asciidoc7compatible flag
When we made the switch to supporting asciidoc 8 in 4c7100a
(Documentation: adjust to AsciiDoc 8, 2007-06-14), we were
able to leave most of the documentation intact by defining
asciidoc7compatible.

Since commit 6cf378f (docs: stop using asciidoc no-inline-literal,
2012-04-26), we don't support versions of asciidoc older
than 8.4.1, which is when inline literals were introduced.
Therefore there is not much point in keeping our
documentation compatible with asciidoc 7.

So we are now free to drop the asciidoc7compatible flag and
update the documentation itself to assume asciidoc8.
Fortunately, doing the latter is very easy; we weren't using
any of the constructs impacted by asciidoc7compatible, so
there are no changes to make.

The reason is somewhat subtle. The asciidoc7compatible
affects only super/sub-scripts ("^" and "~") and index
terms. We don't use the latter at all. Nor we do we use the
former, but we did have to protect them from accidental
expansion in constructs like "rev^1". However, all of our
uses of "~" and "^" are either in code blocks (which are
rendered literally), or inside backticks. Prior to 6cf378f,
backticks were not inline literals, and needed proper
quoting. But post-6cf378f, we don't have to worry whether we
are using the old or new rules, as those characters are not
interpreted at all in either case.

I verified that the result of "make install-html
install-man" is identical before and after this patch on
asciidoc 8.6.7.

0db71e0fa9 add mergesort() for linked lists
This adds a generic bottom-up mergesort implementation for singly linked
lists.  It was inspired by Simon Tatham's webpage on the topic[1], but
not so much by his implementation -- for no good reason, really, just a
case of NIH.

5b58619aa0 var doc: advertise current DEFAULT_PAGER and DEFAULT_EDITOR settings
Document the default pager and editor chosen at compile time in the
git-var(1) manpage so users curious about what command _this_ copy of
git will fall back to when EDITOR, VISUAL, and PAGER are unset can
find the answer quickly.

In builds leaving those settings uncustomized, this patch makes the
manpage continue to say "usually vi" and "usually less" so the
formatted documentation is usable for a wide audience including users
of custom builds that change those settings.  If you would like your
copy of the docs to be less noncommittal, you will need to set
DEFAULT_PAGER=less and DEFAULT_EDITOR=vi explicitly.

6942efcfa9 xdiff: load full words in the inner loop of xdl_hash_record
Redo the hashing loop in xdl_hash_record in a way that loads an entire
'long' at a time, using masking tricks to see when and where we found
the terminating '\n'.

I stole inspiration and code from the posts by Linus Torvalds around

  https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/3/2/452
  https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/3/5/6

His method reads the buffers in sizeof(long) increments, and may thus
overrun it by at most sizeof(long)-1 bytes before it sees the final
newline (or hits the buffer length check).  I considered padding out
all buffers by a suitable amount to "catch" the overrun, but

* this does not work for mmap()'d buffers: if you map 4096+8 bytes
  from a 4096 byte file, accessing the last 8 bytes results in a
  SIGBUS on my machine; and

* it would also be extremely ugly because it intrudes deep into the
  unpacking machinery.

So I adapted it to not read beyond the buffer at all.  Instead, it
reads the final partial word byte-by-byte and strings it together.
Then it can use the same logic as before to finish the hashing.

So far we enable this only on x86_64, where it provides nice speedup
for diff-related work:

  Test                                  origin/next      tr/xdiff-fast-hash
  -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
  4000.1: log -3000 (baseline)          0.07(0.05+0.02)  0.08(0.06+0.02) +14.3%
  4000.2: log --raw -3000 (tree-only)   0.37(0.33+0.04)  0.37(0.32+0.04) +0.0%
  4000.3: log -p -3000 (Myers)          1.75(1.65+0.09)  1.60(1.49+0.10) -8.6%

  4000.5: log -p -3000 --patience       2.11(2.00+0.10)  1.94(1.80+0.11) -8.1%

Perhaps other platforms could also benefit.  However it does NOT work
on big-endian systems!

b3e34dddc0 Use SHELL_PATH from build system in run_command.c:prepare_shell_cmd
During the testing of the 1.7.10 rc series on Solaris for OpenCSW, it
was discovered that t7006-pager was failing due to finding a bad "sh"
in PATH after a call to execvp("sh", ...).  This call was setup by
run_command.c:prepare_shell_cmd.

The PATH in use at the time saw /opt/csw/bin given precedence to
traditional Solaris paths such as /usr/bin and /usr/xpg4/bin.  A
package named schilyutils (Joerg Schilling's utilities) was installed
on the build system and it delivered a modified version of the
traditional Solaris /usr/bin/sh as /opt/csw/bin/sh.  This version of
sh suffers from many of the same problems as /usr/bin/sh.

The command-specific pager test failed due to the broken "sh" handling
^ as a pipe character.  It tried to fork two processes when it
encountered "sed s/^/foo:/" as the pager command.  This problem was
entirely dependent on the PATH of the user at runtime.

Possible fixes for this issue are:

1. Use the standard system() or popen() which both launch a POSIX
   shell on Solaris as long as _POSIX_SOURCE is defined.

2. The git wrapper could prepend SANE_TOOL_PATH to PATH thus forcing
   all unqualified commands run to use the known good tools on the
   system.

3. The run_command.c:prepare_shell_command() could use the same
   SHELL_PATH that is in the #! line of all all scripts and not rely
   on PATH to find the sh to run.

Option 1 would preclude opening a bidirectional pipe to a filter
script and would also break git for Windows as cmd.exe is spawned from
system() (cf. v1.7.5-rc0~144^2, "alias: use run_command api to execute
aliases, 2011-01-07).

Option 2 is not friendly to users as it would negate their ability to
use tools of their choice in many cases.  Alternately, injecting
SANE_TOOL_PATH such that it takes precedence over /bin and /usr/bin
(and anything with lower precedence than those paths) as
git-sh-setup.sh does would not solve the problem either as the user
environment could still allow a bad sh to be found.  (Many OpenCSW
users will have /opt/csw/bin leading their PATH and some subset would
have schilyutils installed.)

Option 3 allows us to use a known good shell while still honouring the
users' PATH for the utilities being run.  Thus, it solves the problem
while not negatively impacting either users or git's ability to run
external commands in convenient ways.  Essentially, the shell is a
special case of tool that should not rely on SANE_TOOL_PATH and must
be called explicitly.

With this patch applied, any code path leading to
run_command.c:prepare_shell_cmd can count on using the same sane shell
that all shell scripts in the git suite use.  Both the build system
and run_command.c will default this shell to /bin/sh unless
overridden.

We add the appropriate calls to the existing submodule machinery doing

call these functions more than once during the processes lifetime.

342e9ef2d9 Introduce a performance testing framework
This introduces a performance testing framework under t/perf/.  It
tries to be as close to the test-lib.sh infrastructure as possible,
and thus should be easy to get used to for git developers.

The following points were considered for the implementation:

1. You usually want to compare arbitrary revisions/build trees against
   each other.  They may not have the performance test under
   consideration, or even the perf-lib.sh infrastructure.

   To cope with this, the 'run' script lets you specify arbitrary
   build dirs and revisions.  It even automatically builds the revisions
   if it doesn't have them at hand yet.

2. Usually you would not want to run all tests.  It would take too
   long anyway.  The 'run' script lets you specify which tests to run;
   or you can also do it manually.  There is a Makefile for
   discoverability and 'make clean', but it is not meant for
   real-world use.

3. Creating test repos from scratch in every test is extremely
   time-consuming, and shipping or downloading such large/weird repos
   is out of the question.

   We leave this decision to the user.  Two different sizes of test
   repos can be configured, and the scripts just copy one or more of
   those (using hardlinks for the object store).  By default it tries
   to use the build tree's git.git repository.

   This is fairly fast and versatile.  Using a copy instead of a clone
   preserves many properties that the user may want to test for, such
   as lots of loose objects, unpacked refs, etc.

6d62c983f7 Makefile: Change the default compiler from "gcc" to "cc"
Ever since the very first commit to git.git we've been setting CC to
"gcc". Presumably this is behavior that Linus copied from the Linux
Makefile.

However unlike Linux Git is written in ANSI C and supports a multitude
of compilers, including Clang, Sun Studio, xlc etc. On my Linux box
"cc" is a symlink to clang, and on a Solaris box I have access to "cc"
is Sun Studio's CC.

Both of these are perfectly capable of compiling Git, and it's
annoying to have to specify CC=cc on the command-line when compiling
Git when that's the default behavior of most other portable programs.

So change the default to "cc". Users who want to compile with GCC can
still add "CC=gcc" to the make(1) command-line, but those users who
don't have GCC as their "cc" will see expected behavior, and as a
bonus we'll be more likely to smoke out new compilation warnings from
our distributors since they'll me using a more varied set of compilers
by default.

f2d713fc3e Fix build problems related to profile-directed optimization
There was a number of problems I ran into when trying the
profile-directed optimizations added by Andi Kleen in git commit
7ddc2710b9.  (This was using gcc 4.4 found on many enterprise
distros.)

1) The -fprofile-generate and -fprofile-use commands are incompatible
with ccache; the code ends up looking in the wrong place for the gcda
files based on the ccache object names.

2) If the makefile notices that CFLAGS are different, it will rebuild
all of the binaries.  Hence the recipe originally specified by the
INSTALL file ("make profile-all" followed by "make install") doesn't
work.  It will appear to work, but the binaries will end up getting
built with no optimization.

This patch fixes this by using an explicit set of options passed via
the PROFILE variable then using this to directly manipulate CFLAGS and
EXTLIBS.

The developer can run "make PROFILE=BUILD all ; sudo make
PROFILE=BUILD install" automatically run a two-pass build with the
test suite run in between as the sample workload for the purpose of
recording profiling information to do the profile-directed
optimization.

Alternatively, the profiling version of binaries can be built using:

	make PROFILE=GEN PROFILE_DIR=/var/cache/profile all
	make PROFILE=GEN install

and then after git has been used for a while, the optimized version of
the binary can be built as follows:

	make PROFILE=USE PROFILE_DIR=/var/cache/profile all
	make PROFILE=USE install

The cost is that commandline usage of the svn-fe tool becomes a little

apply deltas to them.

21aeafceda add generic terminal prompt function
When we need to prompt the user for input interactively, we
want to access their terminal directly. We can't rely on
stdio because it may be connected to pipes or files, rather
than the terminal. Instead, we use "getpass()", because it
abstracts the idea of prompting and reading from the
terminal.  However, it has some problems:

  1. It never echoes the typed characters, which makes it OK
     for passwords but annoying for other input (like usernames).

  2. Some implementations of getpass() have an extremely
     small input buffer (e.g., Solaris 8 is reported to
     support only 8 characters).

  3. Some implementations of getpass() will fall back to
     reading from stdin (e.g., glibc). We explicitly don't
     want this, because our stdin may be connected to a pipe
     speaking a particular protocol, and reading will
     disrupt the protocol flow (e.g., the remote-curl
     helper).

  4. Some implementations of getpass() turn off signals, so
     that hitting "^C" on the terminal does not break out of
     the password prompt. This can be a mild annoyance.

Instead, let's provide an abstract "git_terminal_prompt"
function that addresses these concerns. This patch includes
an implementation based on /dev/tty, enabled by setting
HAVE_DEV_TTY. The fallback is to use getpass() as before.

71e1b4b6bf credentials: add "store" helper
This is like "cache", except that we actually put the
credentials on disk. This can be terribly insecure, of
course, but we do what we can to protect them by filesystem
permissions, and we warn the user in the documentation.

This is not unlike using .netrc to store entries, but it's a
little more user-friendly. Instead of putting credentials in
place ahead of time, we transparently store them after
prompting the user for them once.

e2770979fe credentials: add "cache" helper
If you access repositories over smart-http using http
authentication, then it can be annoying to have git ask you
for your password repeatedly. We cache credentials in
memory, of course, but git is composed of many small
programs. Having to input your password for each one can be
frustrating.

This patch introduces a credential helper that will cache
passwords in memory for a short period of time.

abca927dbe introduce credentials API
There are a few places in git that need to get a username
and password credential from the user; the most notable one
is HTTP authentication for smart-http pushing.

Right now the only choices for providing credentials are to
put them plaintext into your ~/.netrc, or to have git prompt
you (either on the terminal or via an askpass program). The
former is not very secure, and the latter is not very
convenient.

Unfortunately, there is no "always best" solution for
password management. The details will depend on the tradeoff
you want between security and convenience, as well as how
git can integrate with other security systems (e.g., many
operating systems provide a keychain or password wallet for
single sign-on).

This patch provides an abstract notion of credentials as a
data item, and provides three basic operations:

  - fill (i.e., acquire from external storage or from the
    user)

  - approve (mark a credential as "working" for further
    storage)

  - reject (mark a credential as "not working", so it can
    be removed from storage)

These operations can be backed by external helper processes
that interact with system- or user-specific secure storage.

5e9637c629 i18n: add infrastructure for translating Git with gettext
Change the skeleton implementation of i18n in Git to one that can show
localized strings to users for our C, Shell and Perl programs using
either GNU libintl or the Solaris gettext implementation.

This new internationalization support is enabled by default. If
gettext isn't available, or if Git is compiled with
NO_GETTEXT=YesPlease, Git falls back on its current behavior of
showing interface messages in English. When using the autoconf script
we'll auto-detect if the gettext libraries are installed and act
appropriately.

This change is somewhat large because as well as adding a C, Shell and
Perl i18n interface we're adding a lot of tests for them, and for
those tests to work we need a skeleton PO file to actually test
translations. A minimal Icelandic translation is included for this
purpose. Icelandic includes multi-byte characters which makes it easy
to test various edge cases, and it's a language I happen to
understand.

The rest of the commit message goes into detail about various
sub-parts of this commit.

= Installation

Gettext .mo files will be installed and looked for in the standard
$(prefix)/share/locale path. GIT_TEXTDOMAINDIR can also be set to
override that, but that's only intended to be used to test Git itself.

= Perl

Perl code that's to be localized should use the new Git::I18n
module. It imports a __ function into the caller's package by default.

Instead of using the high level Locale::TextDomain interface I've
opted to use the low-level (equivalent to the C interface)
Locale::Messages module, which Locale::TextDomain itself uses.

Locale::TextDomain does a lot of redundant work we don't need, and
some of it would potentially introduce bugs. It tries to set the
$TEXTDOMAIN based on package of the caller, and has its own
hardcoded paths where it'll search for messages.

I found it easier just to completely avoid it rather than try to
circumvent its behavior. In any case, this is an issue wholly
internal Git::I18N. Its guts can be changed later if that's deemed
necessary.

See <AANLkTilYD_NyIZMyj9dHtVk-ylVBfvyxpCC7982LWnVd@mail.gmail.com> for
a further elaboration on this topic.

= Shell

Shell code that's to be localized should use the git-sh-i18n
library. It's basically just a wrapper for the system's gettext.sh.

If gettext.sh isn't available we'll fall back on gettext(1) if it's
available. The latter is available without the former on Solaris,
which has its own non-GNU gettext implementation. We also need to
emulate eval_gettext() there.

If neither are present we'll use a dumb printf(1) fall-through
wrapper.

= About libcharset.h and langinfo.h

We use libcharset to query the character set of the current locale if
it's available. I.e. we'll use it instead of nl_langinfo if
HAVE_LIBCHARSET_H is set.

The GNU gettext manual recommends using langinfo.h's
nl_langinfo(CODESET) to acquire the current character set, but on
systems that have libcharset.h's locale_charset() using the latter is
either saner, or the only option on those systems.

GNU and Solaris have a nl_langinfo(CODESET), FreeBSD can use either,
but MinGW and some others need to use libcharset.h's locale_charset()
instead.

=Credits

024c843d47 Makefile: add option to disable automatic dependency generation
Now that the COMPUTE_HEADER_DEPENDENCIES feature is turned on
automatically for compilers that support it (see v1.7.8-rc0~142^2~1,
2011-08-18), there is no easy way to force it off.  For example,
setting COMPUTE_HEADER_DEPENDENCIES to the empty string in config.mak
just tells the makefile to treat it as undefined and run a test
command to see if the -MMD option is supported.

So allow setting COMPUTE_HEADER_DEPENDENCIES=no to explicitly force
the feature off.  The new semantics:

 - "yes" means to explicitly enable the feature
 - "no" means to disable it
 - "auto" means to autodetect

The default is still "auto".  Any value other than these three will
cause the build to error out with a descriptive message so typos and
stale settings in config.mak don't result in mysterious behavior.

	Makefile:1278: *** please set COMPUTE_HEADER_DEPENDENCIES to
	yes, no, or auto (not "1").  Stop.

So now when someone using a compiler without -MMD support reports
trouble building git, you can reproduce it by running "make
COMPUTE_HEADER_DEPENDENCIES=no".

2f47eae2a1 Split GPG interface into its own helper library
This mostly moves existing code from builtin/tag.c (for signing)
and builtin/verify-tag.c (for verifying) to a new gpg-interface.c
file to provide a more generic library interface.

 - sign_buffer() takes a payload strbuf, a signature strbuf, and a signing
   key, runs "gpg" to produce a detached signature for the payload, and
   appends it to the signature strbuf. The contents of a signed tag that
   concatenates the payload and the detached signature can be produced by
   giving the same strbuf as payload and signature strbuf.

 - verify_signed_buffer() takes a payload and a detached signature as
   <ptr, len> pairs, and runs "gpg --verify" to see if the payload matches
   the signature. It can optionally capture the output from GPG to allow
   the callers to pretty-print it in a way more suitable for their
   contexts.

"verify-tag" (aka "tag -v") used to save the whole tag contents as if it
is a detached signature, and fed gpg the payload part of the tag. It
relied on gpg to fail when the given tag is not signed but just is
annotated.  The updated run_gpg_verify() function detects the lack of
detached signature in the input, and errors out without bothering "gpg".

Ever since mergetool--lib was split into multiple files in
v1.7.7-rc0~3^2~1 (2011-08-18), the Makefile takes care to reset umask
and use tar --no-owner when installing merge tool definitions to
$(gitexecdir)/mergetools/.  Unfortunately it does not take into
account the possibility that the permission bits of the files being
copied might already be wrong.

Rather than fixing the "tar" incantation and making it even more
complicated, let's just use the "install" utility.  This only means
losing the ability to install executables and subdirectories of
mergetools/, which wasn't used.

Noticed by installing from a copy of git checked out with umask 002.

0b20dd8f3d Makefile: do not set setgid bit on directories on GNU/kFreeBSD
The g+s bit on directories to make group ownership inherited is a
SysVism --- BSD and most of its descendants do not need it since they
do the sane thing by default without g+s.  In fact, on some
filesystems (but not all --- tmpfs works this way but UFS does not),
the kernel of FreeBSD does not even allow non-root users to set setgid
bit on directories and produces errors when one tries:

	$ git init --shared dir
	fatal: Could not make /tmp/dir/.git/refs writable by group

Since the setgid bit would only mean "do what you were going to do
already", it's better to avoid setting it.  Accordingly, ever since
v1.5.5-rc0~59^2 (Do not use GUID on dir in git init --share=all on
FreeBSD, 2008-03-05), git on true FreeBSD has done exactly that.  Set
DIR_HAS_BSD_GROUP_SEMANTICS in the makefile for GNU/kFreeBSD, too, so
machines that use glibc with the kernel of FreeBSD get the same fix.

This fixes t0001-init.sh and t1301-shared-repo.sh on GNU/kFreeBSD
when running tests with --root pointing to a directory that uses
tmpfs.

c1189caeaf refactor argv_array into generic code
The submodule code recently grew generic code to build a
dynamic argv array. Many other parts of the code can reuse
this, too, so let's make it generically available.

There are two enhancements not found in the original code:

  1. We now handle the NULL-termination invariant properly,
     even when no strings have been pushed (before, you
     could have an empty, NULL argv). This was not a problem
     for the submodule code, which always pushed at least
     one argument, but was not sufficiently safe for
     generic code.

  2. There is a formatted variant of the "push" function.
     This is a convenience function which was not needed by

1816bf26ec Makefile: Improve compiler header dependency check
The Makefile enables CHECK_HEADER_DEPENDENCIES when the
compiler supports generating header dependencies.
Make the check use the same flags as the invocation
to avoid a false positive when user-configured compiler
flags contain incompatible options.

For example, without this patch, trying to build universal
binaries on a Mac using CFLAGS='-arch i386 -arch x86_64'
produces:

	gcc-4.2: -E, -S, -save-temps and -M options are
	not allowed with multiple -arch flags

While at it, remove "sh -c" in the command passed to $(shell);
at this point in the Makefile, SHELL has already been set to
a sensible shell and it is better not to override that.

0687628466 Reduce parse-options.o dependencies
Currently parse-options.o pulls quite a big bunch of dependencies.
his complicates it's usage in contrib/ because it pulls external
dependencies and it also increases executables size.

Split off less generic and more internal to git part of
parse-options.c to parse-options-cb.c.

Move prefix_filename function from setup.c to abspath.c. abspath.o
and wrapper.o pull each other, so it's unlikely to increase the
dependencies. It was a dependency of parse-options.o that pulled
many others.

Now parse-options.o pulls just abspath.o, ctype.o, strbuf.o, usage.o,
wrapper.o, libc directly and strlcpy.o indirectly.

26ae337be1 revert: Introduce --reset to remove sequencer state
To explicitly remove the sequencer state for a fresh cherry-pick or
revert invocation, introduce a new subcommand called "--reset" to
remove the sequencer state.

Take the opportunity to publicly expose the sequencer paths, and a
generic function called "remove_sequencer_state" that various git
programs can use to remove the sequencer state in a uniform manner;
"git reset" uses it later in this series.  Introducing this public API
is also in line with our long-term goal of eventually factoring out
functions from revert.c into a generic commit sequencer.

Port JGit's HistogramDiff algorithm over to C. Rough numbers (TODO) show
that it is faster than its --patience cousin, as well as the default

The implementation has been reworked to use structs and pointers,
instead of bitmasks, thus doing away with JGit's 2^28 line limit.

We also use xdiff's default hash table implementation (xdl_hash_bits()
with XDL_HASHLONG()) for convenience.

Some profiling tools (e.g., google-perftools and mutrace) work by
linking in a new library into the executables. When using these tools
it is convenient to only relink instead of doing a full make clean;
make cycle.

This change complements the auto-detection of changes to CFLAGS that
we already have. Tracking of more variables that affect the build can
be added when the need arise.

7ddc2710b9 Add profile feedback build to git
Add a gcc profile feedback build option "profile-all" to the main
Makefile. It simply runs the test suite to generate feedback data and the
recompiles the main executables with that. The basic structure is similar
to the existing gcov code.

gcc is often able to generate better code with profile feedback data. The
training load also doesn't need to be too similar to the actual load, it
still gives benefits.

The test suite run is unfortunately quite long. It would be good to find a
suitable subset that runs faster and still gives reasonable feedback.

For now the test suite runs single threaded (I had some trouble running
the test suite with -jX)

I tested it with git gc and git blame kernel/sched.c on a Linux kernel
tree. For gc I get about 2.7% improvement in wall clock time by using the
feedback build, for blame about 2.4%.  That's not gigantic, but not shabby
either for a very small patch.

If anyone has any favourite CPU intensive git benchmarks feel free to try
them too.

I hope distributors will switch to use a feedback build in their packages.

Given an object name, use open_istream() to get a git_istream handle
that you can read_istream() from as if you are using read(2) to read
the contents of the object, and close it with close_istream() when
you are done.

Currently, we do not do anything fancy--it just calls read_sha1_file()
and keeps the contents in memory as a whole, and carve it out as you
request with read_istream().

adc3b2b276 Makefile: add xgettext target for *.sh files
Change the "pot" target to also extract strings from our $(SCRIPT_SH)
files with xgettext(1).

Note that due to Jonathan Nieder's trick of doing "mv $@+ $@" at the
end of the target the "pot" target will now warn:

    $ make pot
        XGETTEXT po/git.pot
    po/git.pot+: warning: Charset "CHARSET" is not a portable encoding name.
                          Message conversion to user's charset might not work.

This warnings is emitted because xgettext is writing into a non-*.pot
file, it's harmless however. The content that's written out is
equivalent to what it would be if we were writing directly into an
existing POT file with --join-existing.

As part of this change I've eliminated the && chain between xgettext
calls, this is incompatible with $(QUIET_XGETTEXT), if the && is left
in it'll emit:

    /bin/sh: @echo: not found

Since it's redundant (the Makefile will stop if there's an error) I've
removed it altogether.

e00cf070a4 git-sh-i18n.sh: add no-op gettext() and eval_gettext() wrappers
Add a no-op wrapper library for Git's shell scripts. To split up the
gettext series I'm first submitting patches to gettextize the source
tree before I add any of the Makefile and Shell library changes needed
to actually use them.

ba67aaf2d0 git-sh-i18n--envsubst: our own envsubst(1) for eval_gettext()
Add a git-sh-i18n--envsubst program which is a stripped-down version
of the GNU envsubst(1) program that comes with GNU gettext for use in
the eval_gettext() fallback.

We need a C helper program because implementing eval_gettext() purely
in shell turned out to be unworkable. Digging through the Git mailing
list archives will reveal two shell implementations of eval_gettext
that are almost good enough, but fail on an edge case which is tested
for in the tests which are part of this patch.

These are the modifications I made to envsubst.c as I turned it into
sh-i18n--envsubst.c:

 * Added our git-compat-util.h header for xrealloc() and friends.

 * Removed inclusion of gettext-specific headers.

 * Removed most of main() and replaced it with my own. The modified
   version only does option parsing for --variables. That's all it
   needs.

 * Modified error() invocations to use our error() instead of
   error(3).

 * Replaced the gettext XNMALLOC(n, size) macro with just
   xmalloc(n). Since XNMALLOC() only allocated char's.

 * Removed the string_list_destroy function. It's redundant (also in
   the upstream code).

 * Replaced the use of stdbool.h (a C99 header) by doing the following
   replacements on the code:

    * s/bool/unsigned short int/g
    * s/true/1/g
    * s/false/0/g
