b079c50e03 format-patch: track several references
Currently, format-patch can only track a single reference (the
In-Reply-To:) for each mail.  To ensure proper threading, we should
list all known references for every mail.

Change the rev_info.ref_message_id field to a string_list, so that we
can append references at will, and change the output formatting
routines to print all of them in the References: header.  The last
entry in the list is implicitly assumed to be the In-Reply-To:, which
gives output consistent with RFC 2822:

   The "References:" field will contain the contents of the parent's
   "References:" field (if any) followed by the contents of the
   parent's "Message-ID:" field (if any).

Note that this is just preparatory work; nothing uses it yet, so all
"References:" fields in the output are still only one deep.

7fcda9201e log: do not print ellipses with --abbrev-commit
'git log --abbrev-commit' added an ellipsis to all commit names that
were abbreviated.  This was particularly annoying if you wanted to
cut&paste the sha1 from the terminal, since selecting by word would
pick up '...'  too.

So use find_unique_abbrev() instead of diff_unique_abbrev() in all
log-related commit sha1 printing routines, and also change the
formatting of the 'Merge: parent1 parent2' line output via
pretty_print_commit().

8c4021abfd Fix machine-parseability of 'git log --source'
The space between the commit and the source attribute is not easily
machine-parseable: if we combine --source with --parents and give a SHA1
as a starting point, it's unnecessarily hard to see where the list of
parents ends and the source decoration begins.

Example:
	git show --parents --source $(git rev-list HEAD)

which is admittedly contrived, but can easily happen in scripting.

So use a <tab> instead of a space as the source separator.

The other decorations didn't have this issue, because they were surrounded
by parenthesis, so it's obvious that they aren't parent SHA1's.

It so happens that _visually_ this makes no difference for "git log
--source", since "commit <40-char SHA1>" is 47 characters, so both a space
and a <tab> will end up showing as a single commit. Of course, with
'--pretty=oneline' or '--parents' or '--abbrev-commit' you'll see the
difference.

0f3a290b89 Add a 'source' decorator for commits
We already support decorating commits by tags or branches that point to
them, but especially when we are looking at multiple branches together,
we sometimes want to see _how_ we reached a particular commit.

We can abuse the '->util' field in the commit to keep track of that as
we walk the commit lists, and get a reasonably useful view into which
branch or tag first reaches that commit.

Of course, if the commit is reachable through multiple sources (which is
common), our particular choice of "first" reachable is entirely random
and depends on the particular path we happened to follow.

strbuf variable "foo" which has not been accessed since its

6b2fbaaffc format-patch: Produce better output with --inline or --attach
This patch makes two small changes to improve the output of --inline
and --attach.

The first is to write a newline preceding the boundary. This is needed because
MIME defines the encapsulation boundary as including the preceding CRLF (or in
this case, just LF), so we should be writing one. Without this, the last
newline in the pre-diff content is consumed instead.

The second change is to always write the line termination character
(default: newline) even when using --inline or --attach. This is simply to
improve the aesthetics of the resulting message. When using --inline an email
client should render the resulting message identically to the non-inline
version. And when using --attach this adds a blank line preceding the
attachment in the email, which is visually attractive.

4da45bef56 log: teach "terminator" vs "separator" mode to "--pretty=format"
This attached patch introduces a single bit "use_terminator" in "struct
rev_info", which is normally false (i.e. most formats use separator
semantics) but by flipping it to true, you can ask for terminator
semantics just like oneline format does.

The function get_commit_format(), which is what parses "--pretty=" option,
now takes a pointer to "struct rev_info" and updates its commit_format and
use_terminator fields.  It used to return the value of type "enum
cmit_fmt", but all the callers assigned it to rev->commit_format.

There are only two cases the code turns use_terminator on.  Obviously, the
traditional oneline format (--pretty=oneline) is one of them, and the new
case is --pretty=tformat:... that acts like --pretty=format:... but flips
the bit on.

With this, "--pretty=tformat:%H %s" acts like --pretty=oneline.

  format-patch: generate MIME header as needed even when there is format.header

6bf4f1b4c9 format-patch: generate MIME header as needed even when there is format.header
Earlier, the callchain from pretty_print_commit() down to pp_title_line()
had an unwarranted assumption that the presense of "after_subject"
parameter, means the caller has already output MIME headers for
attachments.  The parameter's primary purpose is to give extra header
lines the caller wants to place after pp_title_line() generates the
"Subject: " line.

This assumption does not hold when the user used the format.header
configuration variable to pass extra headers, and caused a message with
non-ASCII character to lack proper MIME headers (e.g.  8-bit CTE header).
The earlier logic also failed to suppress duplicated MIME headers when
"format-patch -s --attach" is asked for and the signer's name demanded
8-bit clean transport.

This patch fixes the logic by introducing a separate need_8bit_cte
parameter passed down the callchain.  This can have one of these values:

 -1 : we've already done MIME crap and we do not want to add extra header
      to say this is 8bit in pp_title_line();

  0 : we haven't done MIME and we have not seen anything that is 8bit yet;

  1 : we haven't done MIME and we have seen something that is 8bit;
      pp_title_line() must add MIME header.

It adds two tests by Jeff King who independently diagnosed this issue.

3131b71301 Add "--show-all" revision walker flag for debugging
It's really not very easy to visualize the commit walker, because - on
purpose - it obvously doesn't show the uninteresting commits!

This adds a "--show-all" flag to the revision walker, which will make
it show uninteresting commits too, and they'll have a '^' in front of
them (it also fixes a logic error for !verbose_header for boundary
commits - we should show the '-' even if left_right isn't shown).

A separate patch to gitk to teach it the new '^' was sent
to paulus.  With the change in place, it actually is interesting
even for the cases that git doesn't have any problems with, ie
for the kernel you can do:

	gitk -d --show-all v2.6.24..

and you see just how far down it has to parse things to see it all. The
use of "-d" is a good idea, since the date-ordered toposort is much better
at showing why it goes deep down (ie the date of some of those commits
after 2.6.24 is much older, because they were merged from trees that
weren't rebased).

So I think this is a useful feature even for non-debugging - just to
visualize what git does internally more.

When it actually breaks out due to the "everybody_uninteresting()"
case, it adds the uninteresting commits (both the one it's looking at
now, and the list of pending ones) to the list

This way, we really list *all* the commits we've looked at.

Because we now end up listing commits we may not even have been parsed
at all "show_log" and "show_commit" need to protect against commits
that don't have a commit buffer entry.

That second part is debatable just how it should work. Maybe we shouldn't
show such entries at all (with this patch those entries do get shown, they
just don't get any message shown with them). But I think this is a useful
case.

This fixes an unnecessary empty line that we add to the log message when

DIFF_FORMAT_NO_OUTPUT set.

This can happen with pickaxe or with rename following. The reason is that
we normally add an empty line between the commit and the diff, but we do
that even for the case where we've then suppressed the actual printing of
the diff.

This also updates a couple of tests that assumed the extraneous empty
line would exist at the end of output.

06f59e9f5d Don't fflush(stdout) when it's not helpful
This patch arose from a discussion started by Jim Meyering's patch
whose intention was to provide better diagnostics for failed writes.
Linus proposed a better way to do things, which also had the added
benefit that adding a fflush() to git-log-* operations and incremental
git-blame operations could improve interactive respose time feel, at
the cost of making things a bit slower when we aren't piping the
output to a downstream program.

This patch skips the fflush() calls when stdout is a regular file, or
if the environment variable GIT_FLUSH is set to "0".  This latter can
speed up a command such as:

GIT_FLUSH=0 strace -c -f -e write time git-rev-list HEAD | wc -l

a tiny amount.

80583c0ef6 Lift 16kB limit of log message output
Traditionally we had 16kB limit when formatting log messages for
output, because it was easier to arrange for the caller to have
a reasonably big buffer and pass it down without ever worrying
about reallocating.

This changes the calling convention of pretty_print_commit() to
lift this limit.  Instead of the buffer and remaining length, it
now takes a pointer to the pointer that points at the allocated
buffer, and another pointer to the location that stores the
allocated length, and reallocates the buffer as necessary.

To support the user format, the error return of interpolate()
needed to be changed.  It used to return a bool telling "Ok the
result fits", or "Sorry, I had to truncate it".  Now it returns
0 on success, and returns the size of the buffer it wants in
order to fit the whole result.

e00de24b10 format-patch -n: make sorting easier by padding number
Now, when format-patch outputs more than 9 patches, the numbers
are padded accordingly. Example:

	[PATCH 009/167] The 9th patch of a series of 167

4e244cbc5c log --reflog: honour --relative-date
If you say "git log -g --relative-date", it is very likely that
you want to see the reflog names in terms of a relative date.

abd4e22269 Fix "git log -z" behaviour
For commit messages, we should really put the "line_termination" when we
output the character in between different commits, *not* between the
commit and the diff. The diff goes hand-in-hand with the commit, it
shouldn't be separated from it with the termination character.

So this:
 - uses the termination character for true inter-commit spacing
 - uses a regular newline between the commit log and the diff

We had it the other way around.

For the normal case where the termination character is '\n', this
obviously doesn't change anything at all, since we just switched two
identical characters around. So it's very safe - it doesn't change any
normal usage, but it definitely fixes "git log -z".

By fixing "git log -z", you can now also do insane things like

	git log -p -z |
		grep -z "some patch expression" |
		tr '\0' '\n' |
		less -S

and you will see only those commits that have the "some patch expression"
in their commit message _or_ their patches.

(This is slightly different from 'git log -S"some patch expression"',
since the latter requires the expression to literally *change* in the
patch, while the "git log -p -z | grep .." approach will see it if it's
just an unchanged _part_ of the patch context)

Of course, if you actually do something like the above, you're probably
insane, but hey, it works!

Try the above command line for a demonstration (of course, you need to
change the "some patch expression" to be something relevant). The old
behaviour of "git log -p -z" was useless (and got things completely wrong
for log entries without patches).

903b45fe18 git-log -g --pretty=oneline should display the reflog message
In the context of reflog output the reflog message is more useful than
the commit message's first line.  When relevant the reflog message
will contain that line anyway.

available, the walker will take this information into account, rather
than the parent information in the commit object.

2b60356da5 Make git-cherry handle root trees
This patch on top of 'next' makes built-in git-cherry handle root
commits.

It moves the static function log-tree.c::diff_root_tree() to
tree-diff.c and makes it more similar to diff_tree_sha1() by
shuffling around arguments and factoring out the call to
log_tree_diff_flush().  Consequently the name is changed to
diff_root_tree_sha1().  It is a version of diff_tree_sha1() that
compares the empty tree (= root tree) against a single 'real' tree.

This function is then used in get_patch_id() to compute patch IDs
for initial commits instead of SEGFAULTing, as the current code
does if confronted with parentless commits.

fc1c75ec74 log-tree.c: cleanup a bit append_signoff()
This patch clean up append_signoff() by moving specific code that
looks up for "^[-A-Za-z]+: [^@]+@" pattern into a function.

It also stops the primary search when the cursor oversteps
'buf + at' limit.

This patch changes slightly append_signoff() behaviour too. If we
detect any Signed-off-by pattern during the primary search, we
needn't to do a pattern research after.
