This shrinks "struct object" by a small amount, by getting rid of the
"struct type *" pointer and replacing it with a 3-bit bitfield instead.
In addition, we merge the bitfields and the "flags" field, which
incidentally should also remove a useless 4-byte padding from the object
when in 64-bit mode.
Now, our "struct object" is still too damn large, but it's now less
obviously bloated, and of the remaining fields, only the "util" (which is
not used by most things) is clearly something that should be eventually
discarded.
This shrinks the "git-rev-list --all" memory use by about 2.5% on the
kernel archive (and, perhaps more importantly, on the larger mozilla
archive). That may not sound like much, but I suspect it's more on a
64-bit platform.
There are other remaining inefficiencies (the parent lists, for example,
probably have horrible malloc overhead), but this was pretty obvious.
Most of the patch is just changing the comparison of the "type" pointer
from one of the constant string pointers to the appropriate new TYPE_xxx
small integer constant.

ISO C99 (and GCC 3.x or later) lets you write a flexible array
at the end of a structure, like this:
struct frotz {
int xyzzy;
char nitfol[]; /* more */
};
GCC 2.95 and 2.96 let you to do this with "char nitfol[0]";
unfortunately this is not allowed by ISO C90.
This declares such construct like this:
struct frotz {
int xyzzy;
char nitfol[FLEX_ARRAY]; /* more */
};
and git-compat-util.h defines FLEX_ARRAY to 0 for gcc 2.95 and
empty for others.
If you are using a C90 C compiler, you should be able
to override this with CFLAGS=-DFLEX_ARRAY=1 from the
command line of "make".

One caller of deref_tag() was not careful enough to make sure
what deref_tag() returned was not NULL (i.e. we found a tag
object that points at an object we do not have). Fix it, and
warn about refs that point at such an incomplete tag where
needed.

Again I left the v2.6.11-tree tag behind. My bad.
This commit makes sure that we do not barf when pushing a ref
that is a non-commitish tag. You can update a remote ref under
the following conditions:
* You can always use --force.
* Creating a brand new ref is OK.
* If the remote ref is exactly the same as what you are
pushing, it is OK (nothing is pushed).
* You can replace a commitish with another commitish which is a
descendant of it, if you can verify the ancestry between them;
this and the above means you have to have what you are replacing.
* Otherwise you cannot update; you need to use --force.

Handle parsing a tag for a non-present object. This adds a function to lookup
an object with lookup_* for * in a string, so that it can get the right storage
based on the "type" line in the tag.

This adds knowledge of delta objects to fsck-cache and various object
parsing code. A new switch to git-fsck-cache is provided to display the
maximum delta depth found in a repository.

It turns out that parse_object() is loading and decompressing given
object to free it just before calling the specific object parsing
function which does mmap and decompress the same object again. This
patch introduces the ability to parse specific objects directly from a
memory buffer.
Without this patch, running git-fsck-cache on the kernel repositorytake:
real 0m13.006s
user 0m11.421s
sys 0m1.218s
With this patch applied:
real 0m8.060s
user 0m7.071s
sys 0m0.710s
The performance increase is significant, and this is kind of a
prerequisite for sane delta object support with fsck.

This adds preliminary support for tags in the library. It doesn't even
store the signature, however, let alone provide any way of checking it.
