27cfe2e2dc Make time-based commit filtering work with topological ordering.
The trick is to consider the time-based filtering a limiter, the same way
we do for release ranges.

That means that the time-based filtering runs _before_ the topological
sorting, which makes it meaningful again. It also simplifies the code
logic.

This makes "gitk" useful with time ranges.

[ Second version: --merge-order now unaffected by the re-org ]

c1babb1d65 [PATCH] Teach "git-rev-parse" about date-based cut-offs
This adds the options "--since=date" and "--before=date" to git-rev-parse,
which knows how to translate them into seconds since the epoch for
git-rev-list.

With this, you can do

	git log --since="2 weeks ago"

or

	git log --until=yesterday

to show the commits that have happened in the last two weeks or are
older than 24 hours, respectively.

The flags "--after=" and "--before" are synonyms for --since and --until,
and you can combine them, so

	git log --after="Aug 5" --before="Aug 10"

is a valid (but strange) thing to do.

7c6ef2f214 [PATCH] ARM optimized SHA1 implementation
This is my ARM assembly SHA1 implementation for GIT. It is approximately
50% faster than the generic C version. On an XScale processor running at
400MHz:

	generic C version:	9.8 MB/s
	my version:		14.5 MB/s

It's not that I expect a lot of big GIT users on ARM, but I stillknow
about one important ARM user that might benefit from it, and writing
that code was fun.

I also reworked the makefile a bit so any optimized SHA1 implementations
is used regardless of whether NO_OPENSSL is defined or not.

2a39064c65 [PATCH] Return proper error valud from "parse_date()"
Right now we don't return any error value at all from parse_date(), and if
we can't parse it, we just silently leave the result buffer unchanged.

That's fine for the current user, which will always default to the current
date, but it's a crappy interface, and we might well be better off with an
error message rather than just the default date.

So let's change the thing to return a negative value if an error occurs,
and the length of the result otherwise (snprintf behaviour: if the buffer
is too small, it returns how big it _would_ have been).

[ I started looking at this in case we could support date-based revision
  names. Looks ugly. Would have to parse relative dates.. ]

We need to be a bit careful.  Immediately after read-tree or

37539fbda5 [PATCH] Improved "git add"
This fixes everybodys favourite complaint about "git add", namely that it
doesn't take directories.

We use "git-ls-files --others" to generate an arbitrary list of filenames,
and thus also automatically honor ignore-files while we're at it.

Side note: there's a lot of room for improvement here. In particular, if
we have a long list of filenames (importing a big archive), this will just
do a big stupid for-loop and add them one at a time. Maybe it should use

	generate-list | xargs -0 git-update-idex --add --

instead.

Also, I think we should have a default ignore list if we don't find a
.git/info/exclude file. Ignoring "*.o" and ".*" by default would probably
be the right thing to do.

But I think this is a good first step.

Use the "-n" flag to just show the list of files to be added without
adding them.

85d106c267 Improve the safety check used in fetch.c
The recent safety check to trust only the commits we have made
things impossibly slow and turn out to waste a lot of memory.

This commit fixes it with the following improvements:

 - mark already scanned objects and avoid rescanning the same
   object again;

 - free the tree entries when we have scanned the tree entries;
   this is the same as b0d8923ec0
   which reduced memory usage by rev-list;

 - plug memory leak from the object_list dequeuing code;

 - use the process_queue not just for fetching but for scanning,
   to make things tail recursive to avoid deep recursion; the
   deep recursion was especially prominent when we cloned a big
   pack.

 - avoid has_sha1_file() call when we already know we do not have
   that object.

8805ccac40 [PATCH] Avoid building object ref lists when not needed
The object parsing code builds a generic "this object references that
object" because doing a full connectivity check for fsck requires it.

However, nothing else really needs it, and it's quite expensive for
git-rev-list that can have tons of objects in flight.

So, exactly like the commit buffer save thing, add a global flag to
disable it, and use it in git-rev-list.

Before:

	$ /usr/bin/time git-rev-list --objects v2.6.12..HEAD | wc -l
	12.28user 0.29system 0:12.57elapsed 99%CPU (0avgtext+0avgdata 0maxresident)k
	0inputs+0outputs (0major+26718minor)pagefaults 0swaps
	59124

After this change:

	$ /usr/bin/time git-rev-list --objects v2.6.12..HEAD | wc -l
	10.33user 0.18system 0:10.54elapsed 99%CPU (0avgtext+0avgdata 0maxresident)k
	0inputs+0outputs (0major+18509minor)pagefaults 0swaps
	59124

and note how the number of pages touched by git-rev-list for this
particular object list has shrunk from 26,718 (104 MB) to 18,509 (72 MB).

Calculating the total object difference between two git revisions is still
clearly the most expensive git operation (both in memory and CPU time),
but it's now less than 40% of what it used to be.

b0d8923ec0 [PATCH] Improve git-rev-list memory usage further
This avoids keeping tree entries around, and free's them as it traverses

small but very common allocations.

Before:

	$ /usr/bin/time git-rev-list --objects v2.6.12..HEAD | wc -l
	11.65user 0.38system 0:12.65elapsed 95%CPU (0avgtext+0avgdata 0maxresident)k
	0inputs+0outputs (0major+42934minor)pagefaults 0swaps
	59124

After:

	$ /usr/bin/time git-rev-list --objects v2.6.12..HEAD | wc -l
	12.28user 0.29system 0:12.57elapsed 99%CPU (0avgtext+0avgdata 0maxresident)k
	0inputs+0outputs (0major+26718minor)pagefaults 0swaps
	59124

Note how the minor fault numbers - which ends up being how many pages we
needed to map - go down from 42934 (167 MB) to 26718 (104 MB).  That is:

Before:
	42934 minor pagefaults

After:

	26718 minor pagefaults

This is all in _addition_ to the previous fixes.  It used to be
~48,000 pagefaults.

That's still a honking big memory footprint, but it's about half of what
it was just a day or two ago (and this is the object list for a pretty big
update - almost 60,000 objects. Smaller updates need less memory).
