With "[core] filemode = false", you can tell git to ignore
differences in the working tree file only in executable bit.
* "git-update-index --refresh" does not say "needs update" if index
entry and working tree file differs only in executable bit.
* "git-update-index" on an existing path takes executable bit
from the existing index entry, if the path and index entry are
both regular files.
* "git-diff-files" and "git-diff-index" without --cached flag
pretend the path on the filesystem has the same executable
bit as the existing index entry, if the path and index entry
are both regular files.
If you are on a filesystem with unreliable mode bits, you may need to
force the executable bit after registering the path in the index.
* "git-update-index --chmod=+x foo" flips the executable bit of the
index file entry for path "foo" on. Use "--chmod=-x" to flip it
off.
Note that --chmod only works in index file and does not look at nor
update the working tree.
So if you are on a filesystem and do not have working executable bit,
you would do:
1. set the appropriate .git/config option;
2. "git-update-index --add new-file.c"
3. "git-ls-files --stage new-file.c" to see if it has the desired
mode bits. If not, e.g. to drop executable bit picked up from the
filesystem, say "git-update-index --chmod=-x new-file.c".

I had meant to disallow unknown escape characters in the config file
parser, but instead an unknown escaped character would silently pass
through as itself. That's correct for some cases (notably '\' itself), but
wasn't correct in general.
This fixes it, and makes the parser write a nice error message if the
config file contains bogus escaped characters.

Some SVN repositories that are accessible through HTTP don't like when I
retrieve files using SVN methods ("internal server error").
Therefore, I added an option to get the contents using (persistent) HTTP
directly. This also reduces round-trip time, from two or three requests
down to one.
Also corrected error handling a bit.

The http commit walker cannot use the same temporary file
creation code because it needs to use predictable temporary
filename for partial fetch continuation purposes, but the code
to move the temporary file to the final location should be
usable from the ordinary object creation codepath.
Export move_temp_to_file from sha1_file.c and use it, while
losing the custom relink_or_rename function from http-fetch.c.
Also the temporary object file creation part needs to make sure
the leading path exists, in preparation of the really lazy
fan-out directory creation.

The parallel request changes didn't properly implement the previous patch to

Be sure not to fetch objects that already exist in the local repository.
The main process loop no longer performs this check, http-fetch now checks
prior to starting a new request queue entry and when fetch_object() is called,
and local-fetch now checks when fetch_object() is called.

Add support for parallel HTTP transfers. Prefetch populates a queue of
objects to transfer and starts feeding requests to an active request
queue for processing; fetch_object keeps the active queue moving
while the specified object is being transferred. The size of the active
queue can be restricted using -r and defaults to 5 concurrent transfers.
Requests for objects that are not prefetched are also processed via the
active queue.

This is a first cut at a very simple parser for a git config file.
The format of the file is a simple ini-file like thing, with simple
variable/value pairs. You can (and should) make the variables have a
simple single-level scope, ie a valid file looks something like this:
#
# This is the config file, and
# a '#' or ';' character indicates
# a comment
#
; core variables
[core]
; Don't trust file modes
filemode = false
; Our diff algorithm
[diff]
external = "/usr/local/bin/gnu-diff -u"
renames = true
which parses into three variables: "core.filemode" is associated with the
string "false", and "diff.external" gets the appropriate quoted value.
Right now we only react to one variable: "core.filemode" is a boolean that
decides if we should care about the 0100 (user-execute) bit of the stat
information. Even that is just a parsing demonstration - this doesn't
actually implement that st_mode compare logic itself.
Different programs can react to different config options, although they
should always fall back to calling "git_default_config()" on any config
option name that they don't recognize.
