In a workflow that employs relatively long lived topic branches,
the developer sometimes needs to resolve the same conflict over
and over again until the topic branches are done (either merged
to the "release" branch, or sent out and accepted upstream).
This commit introduces a new command, "git rerere", to help this
process by recording the conflicted automerge results and
corresponding hand-resolve results on the initial manual merge,
and later by noticing the same conflicted automerge and applying
the previously recorded hand resolution using three-way merge.

This is essentially 'git whatchanged -n1 --always --cc "$@"'.
Just like whatchanged takes default flags from
whatchanged.difftree configuration, this uses show.difftree
configuration.

A new option '-c' to diff-tree changes the way a merge commit is
displayed when generating a patch output. It shows a "combined
diff" (hence the option letter 'c'), which looks like this:
$ git-diff-tree --pretty -c -p fec9ebf1 | head -n 18
diff-tree fec9ebf... (from parents)
Merge: 0620db3... 8a263ae...

diff --combined describe.c

- static void describe(struct commit *cmit, int last_one)
++ static void describe(char *arg, int last_one)
{
+ unsigned char sha1[20];
+ struct commit *cmit;
There are a few things to note about this feature:
- The '-c' option implies '-p'. It also implies '-m' halfway
in the sense that "interesting" merges are shown, but not all
merges.
- When a blob matches one of the parents, we do not show a diff
for that path at all. For a merge commit, this option shows
paths with real file-level merge (aka "interesting things").
- As a concequence of the above, an "uninteresting" merge is
not shown at all. You can use '-m' in addition to '-c' to
show the commit log for such a merge, but there will be no
combined diff output.
- Unlike "gitk", the output is monochrome.
A '-' character in the nth column means the line is from the nth
parent and does not appear in the merge result (i.e. removed
from that parent's version).
A '+' character in the nth column means the line appears in the
merge result, and the nth parent does not have that line
(i.e. added by the merge itself or inherited from another
parent).
The above example output shows that the function signature was
changed from either parents (hence two "-" lines and a "++"
line), and "unsigned char sha1[20]", prefixed by a " +", was
inherited from the first parent.
The code as sent to the list was buggy in few corner cases,
which I have fixed since then.
It does not bother to keep track of and show the line numbers
from parent commits, which it probably should.

The d_ino field is only used for performance reasons in
fsck-objects. On a typical filesystem, i-number tends to have a
strong correlation with where the actual bits sit on the disk
platter, and we sort the entries to allow us scan things that
ought to be close together together.
If the platform lacks support for it, it is not a big deal.
Just do not use d_ino for sorting, and scan them unsorted.

The earlier change to separate $(gitexecdir) from $(bindir) had

The git suite may not be in PATH (and thus programs such as
git-send-pack could not exec git-rev-list). Thus there is a need for
logic that will locate these programs. Modifying PATH is not
desirable as it result in behavior differing from the user's
intentions, as we may end up prepending "/usr/bin" to PATH.
- git C programs will use exec*_git_cmd() APIs to exec sub-commands.
- exec*_git_cmd() will execute a git program by searching for it in
the following directories:
1. --exec-path (as used by "git")
2. The GIT_EXEC_PATH environment variable.
3. $(gitexecdir) as set in Makefile (default value $(bindir)).
- git wrapper will modify PATH as before to enable shell scripts to
invoke "git-foo" commands.
Ideally, shell scripts should use the git wrapper to become independent
of PATH, and then modifying PATH will not be necessary.

It shows you the most recent tag that is reachable from a particular
commit is.
Maybe this is something that "git-name-rev" should be taught to do,
instead of having a separate command for it. Regardless, I find it useful.
What it does is to take any random commit, and "name" it by looking up the
most recent commit that is tagged and reachable from that commit. If the
match is exact, it will just print out that ref-name directly. Otherwise
it will print out the ref-name, followed by the 8-character "short SHA".
IOW, with something like Junios current tree, I get:
[torvalds@g5 git]$ git-describe parent
refs/tags/v1.0.4-g2414721b
ie the current head of my "parent" branch (ie Junio) is based on v1.0.4,
but since it has a few commits on top of that, it has added the git hash
of the thing to the end: "-g" + 8-char shorthand for the commit
2414721b19.
Doing a "git-describe" on a tag-name will just show the full tag path:
[torvalds@g5 git]$ git-describe v1.0.4
refs/tags/v1.0.4
unless there are _other_ tags pointing to that commit, in which case it
will just choose one at random.
This is useful for two things:
- automatic version naming in Makefiles, for example. We could use it in
git itself: when doing "git --version", we could use this to give a
much more useful description of exactly what version was installed.
- for any random commit (say, you use "gitk <pathname>" or
"git-whatchanged" to look at what has changed in some file), you can
figure out what the last version of the repo was. Ie, say I find a bug
in commit 39ca371c45b04cd50d0974030ae051906fc516b6, I just do:
[torvalds@g5 linux]$ git-describe 39ca371c45b04cd50d0974030ae051906fc516b6
refs/tags/v2.6.14-rc4-g39ca371c
and I now know that it was _not_ in v2.6.14-rc4, but was presumably in
v2.6.14-rc5.
The latter is useful when you want to see what "version timeframe" a
commit happened in.

Starting from this one I won't be touching debian/ directory

HPA suggests it is simply silly to imitate Linux versioning
scheme where the leading "2" does not mean anything anymore, and
I tend to agree.
The first feature release after 1.0.0 will be 1.1.0, and the
development path leading to 1.1.0 will carry 1.0.GIT as the
version number from now on. Similarly, the third maintenance
release that follows 1.0.0 will not be 1.0.0c as planned, but
will be called 1.0.3. The "maint" branch will merge in fixes
and immediately tagged, so there is no need for 1.0.2.GIT that
is in between 1.0.2 (aka 1.0.0b) and 1.0.3.

Split out the functions that deal with the socketpair after
finishing git protocol handshake to receive the packed data into
a separate file, and use it in fetch-pack to keep/explode the
received pack data. We earlier had something like that on
clone-pack side once, but the list discussion resulted in the
decision that it makes sense to always keep the pack for
clone-pack, so unpacking option is not enabled on the clone-pack
side, but we later still could do so easily if we wanted to with

This attempts to clean up the way various compatibility

- A new header file, git-compat-util.h, is introduced. This

replacements, equivalent of -Dstrcasestr=gitstrcasestr in the
Makefile.
- Those function name replacements are removed from the Makefile.
- Common features such as usage(), die(), xmalloc() are moved
