2842375859 [PATCH] Debian: build-depend on "bc"
Build systems should run tests. This patch adds the necessary
debian/control and debian/rules bits ("bc" was missing,
t/t4002-diff-basic.sh wants it).

An earlier commit causes a mismatch in <emphasis> and <superscript>

5bdbaaa4e9 [PATCH] Re-organize "git-rev-list --objects" logic
The logic to calculate the full object list used to be very inter-twined
with the logic that looked up the commits.

For no good reason - it's actually a lot simpler to just do that logic
as a separate pass.

This improves performance a bit, and uses slightly less memory in my
tests, but more importantly it makes the code simpler to work with and
follow what it does.

The performance win is less than I had hoped for, but I get:

Before:

	[torvalds@g5 linux]$ /usr/bin/time git-rev-list --objects v2.6.12..HEAD | wc -l
	13.64user 0.42system 0:14.13elapsed 99%CPU (0avgtext+0avgdata 0maxresident)k
	0inputs+0outputs (0major+47947minor)pagefaults 0swaps
	58945

After:

	[torvalds@g5 linux]$ /usr/bin/time git-rev-list --objects v2.6.12..HEAD | wc -l
	11.80user 0.36system 0:12.16elapsed 99%CPU (0avgtext+0avgdata 0maxresident)k
	0inputs+0outputs (0major+42684minor)pagefaults 0swaps
	58945

ie it improved by 2 seconds, and took a 5000+ fewer pages (hey, that's
20MB out of 174MB to go). And got the same number of objects (in theory,
the more expensive one might find some more shared objects to avoid. In
practice it obviously doesn't).

I know how to make it use _lots_ less memory, which will probably speed it
up. But that's for another time, and I'd prefer to see this go in first.

60ab26de99 [PATCH] Avoid wasting memory in git-rev-list
As pointed out on the list, git-rev-list can use a lot of memory.

One low-hanging fruit is to free the commit buffer for commits that we
parse. By default, parse_commit() will save away the buffer, since a lot
of cases do want it, and re-reading it continually would be unnecessary.
However, in many cases the buffer isn't actually necessary and saving it
just wastes memory.

We could just free the buffer ourselves, but especially in git-rev-list,
we actually end up using the helper functions that automatically add
parent commits to the commit lists, so we don't actually control the
commit parsing directly.

Instead, just make this behaviour of "parse_commit()" a global flag.
Maybe this is a bit tasteless, but it's very simple, and it makes a
noticable difference in memory usage.

Before the change:

	[torvalds@g5 linux]$ /usr/bin/time git-rev-list v2.6.12..HEAD > /dev/null
	0.26user 0.02system 0:00.28elapsed 99%CPU (0avgtext+0avgdata 0maxresident)k
	0inputs+0outputs (0major+3714minor)pagefaults 0swaps

after the change:

	[torvalds@g5 linux]$ /usr/bin/time git-rev-list v2.6.12..HEAD > /dev/null
	0.26user 0.00system 0:00.27elapsed 100%CPU (0avgtext+0avgdata 0maxresident)k
	0inputs+0outputs (0major+2433minor)pagefaults 0swaps

note how the minor faults have decreased from 3714 pages to 2433 pages.
That's all due to the fewer anonymous pages allocated to hold the comment
buffers and their metadata.

0de68d28d3 [PATCH] rsh.c env and quoting cleanup, take 2
This patch does proper quoting, and uses "env" to be compatible with
tcsh.  As a side benefit, I believe the code is a lot cleaner to read.

[jc: I am accepting this not because I necessarily agree with the
 quoting approach taken by it, but because (1) the code is only used
 by ssh-fetch/ssh-upload pair which I do not care much about (if you
 have ssh account on the remote end you should be using git-send-pack
 git-fetch-pack pair over ssh anyway), and (2) HPA is one of the more
 important customers belonging to the Linux kernel community and I
 want to help his workflow -- which includes not wasting his time by
 asking him to switch to git-send-pack/git-fetch-pack pair, nor to use
 a better shell ;-).  I might not have taken this patch if it mucked
 with git_connect in connect.c in its current form.]

1db69b571c [PATCH] git-http-fetch: Allow caching of retrieved objects by proxy servers
By default the curl library adds "Pragma: no-cache" header to all
requests, which disables caching by proxy servers.  However, most
files in a GIT repository are immutable, and caching them is safe and
could be useful.

This patch removes the "Pragma: no-cache" header from requests for all
files except the pack list (objects/info/packs) and references
(refs/*), which are really mutable and should not be cached.

ccfd3e9962 [PATCH] Define relative .git/objects/info/alternates semantics.
An entry in the alternates file can name a directory relative to
the object store it describes.  A typical linux-2.6 maintainer
repository would have "../../../torvalds/linux-2.6.git/objects" there,
because the subsystem maintainer object store would live in

    /pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/$u/$system.git/objects/

and the object store of Linus tree is in

    /pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git/objects/

This unfortunately is different from GIT_ALTERNATE_OBJECT_DIRECTORIES
which is relative to the cwd of the running process, but there is no
way to make it consistent with the behaviour of the environment
variable.  The process typically is run in $system.git/ directory for
a naked repository, or one level up for a repository with a working
tree, so we just define it to be relative to the objects/ directory
to be different from either ;-).

Later, the dumb transport could be updated to read from info/alternates
and make requests for the repository the repository borrows from.

365527adbf Fix CDPATH problem.
CDPATH has two problems:

 * It takes scripts to unexpected places (somebody had

   repository in "foo" which had "foo/.git").  CDPATH mechanism does
   not implicitly give "." at the beginning of CDPATH, which is
   the most irritating part.

 * The extra echo when it does its thing confuses scripts further.

is primarily fixed there.  git-clone starts without a repository, and

7f88c8463c [PATCH] Make 'git checkout' a bit more forgiving when switching branches.
If you make a commit on a path, and then make the path
cache-dirty afterwards without changing its contents, 'git
checkout' to switch to another branch is prevented because
switching the branches done with 'read-tree -m -u $current
$next' detects that the path is cache-dirty, but it does not
bother noticing that the contents of the path has not been
actualy changed.

Since switching branches would involve checking out paths
different in the two branches, hence it is reasonably expensive
operation, we can afford to run update-index before running
read-tree to reduce this kind of false change from triggering
the check needlessly.
