Pointers to directory entries do not remain valid after a call to
dent_insert.
Noticed in the course of importing a small Subversion repository
(~1000 revs); after setting up a dirent for a certain path as a
placeholder, by luck dent_insert would trigger a realloc that
shifted around addresses, resulting in an import with that file
replaced by a directory.

Suppose I try the following:
struct int_node *node = node_pointer(node_alloc(1));
node->n = 5;
treap_insert(&root, node);
printf("%d\n", node->n);
Usually the result will be 5. But since treap_insert draws memory
from the node pool, if the caller is unlucky then (1) the node pool
will be full and (2) realloc will be forced to move the node pool to
find room, so the node address becomes invalid and the result of
dereferencing it is undefined.
So we ought to use offsets in preference to pointers for references
that would remain valid after a call to treap_insert. Tweak the
signature to hint at a certain special case: since the inserted node
can change address (though not offset), as a convenience teach
treap_insert to return its new address.
So the motivational example could be fixed by adding "node =".
struct int_node *node = node_pointer(node_alloc(1));
node->n = 5;
node = treap_insert(&root, node);
printf("%d\n", node->n);
Based on a true story.

Currently :path and ref:path can be used to refer to a specific object
in index or ref respectively. "path" component is absolute path. This
patch allows "path" to be written as "./path" or "../path", which is
relative to user's original cwd.
This does not work in commands for which startup_info is NULL
(i.e. non-builtin ones, it seems none of them needs this anyway).

--refresh and --really-refresh accept flags (like -q) and modify
an error indicator. It might make sense to make the error
indicator global, but just pass the flags and a pointer to the error
indicator in a struct instead.
--cacheinfo wants 3 arguments. Use the OPTION_LOWLEVEL_CALLBACK
extension to grab them and PARSE_OPT_NOARG to disallow the "sticked"
--cacheinfo=foo form. (The resulting message
$ git update-index --cacheinfo=foo
error: option `cacheinfo' takes no value
is unfortunately incorrect.)
--assume-unchanged and --no-assume-unchanged probably should use the
OPT_UYN feature; but use a callback for now so the existing MARK_FLAG
and UNMARK_FLAG values can be used.
--stdin and --index-info are still constrained to be the last argument
(implemented using the OPTION_LOWLEVEL_CALLBACK extension).
--unresolve and --again consume all arguments that come after them
(also using OPTION_LOWLEVEL_CALLBACK).
The order of options matters. Each path on the command line is
affected only by the options that come before it. A custom
argument-parsing loop with parse_options_step() brings that about.
In exchange for all the fuss, we get the usual perks: support for
un-sticked options, better usage error messages, more useful -h
output, and argument parsing code that should be easier to tweak
in the future.

Save the path from the original cwd to the cwd at the end of the
setup procedure in the startup_info struct introduced in e37c1329
(2010-08-05). The value cannot vary from thread to thread anyway,
since the cwd is global.
So now in your builtin command, instead of passing prefix around,
when you want to convert a user-supplied path to a cwd-relative
path, you can use startup_info->prefix directly.
Caveat: As with the return value from setup_git_directory_gently(),
startup_info->prefix would be NULL when the original cwd is not a
subdir of the toplevel.
Longer term, this would allow the prefix to be reused when several
noncooperating functions require access to the same repository (for
example, when accessing configuration before running a builtin).

parse-options provides a variety of option behaviors, including
OPTION_CALLBACK, which should take care of just about any sane
behavior. All supported behaviors obey the following constraint:
A --foo option can only accept (and base its behavior on)
one argument, which would be the following command-line
argument in the "unsticked" form.
Alas, some existing git commands have options that do not obey that
constraint. For example, update-index --cacheinfo takes three
arguments, and update-index --resolve takes all later parameters as
arguments.
Introduces an OPTION_LOWLEVEL_CALLBACK backdoor to parse-options so
such option types can be supported without tempting inventors of other
commands through mention in the public API. Commands can set the
callback field to a function accepting three arguments: the option
parsing context, the option itself, and a flag indicating whether the
the option was negated. When the option is encountered, that function
is called to take over from get_value(). The return value should be
zero for success, -1 for usage errors.
Thanks to Stephen Boyd for API guidance.

The PARSE_OPT_LITERAL_ARGHELP flag allows a program to override the
standard "<argument> for mandatory, [argument] for optional" markup in
its help message. Extend it to override the usual "no text for
disallowed", too (for the PARSE_OPT_NOARG | PARSE_OPT_LITERAL_ARGHELP
case, which was previously meaningless), to be more intuitive.
The motivation is to allow update-index to correctly advertise
--cacheinfo <mode> <object> <path>
add the specified entry to the index
while abusing PARSE_OPT_NOARG to disallow the "sticked form"
--cacheinfo=<mode> <object> <path>

Simplify the "takes no value" error path by relying on PARSE_OPT_NOARG
being set correctly. That is:
- if the PARSE_OPT_NOARG flag is set, reject --opt=value
regardless of the option type;
- if the PARSE_OPT_NOARG flag is unset, accept --opt=value
regardless of the option type.
This way, the accepted usage more closely matches the usage advertised
with --help-all.
No functional change intended, since the NOARG flag is only used
with "boolean-only" option types in existing parse_options callers.

Some option types cannot use an argument --- boolean options that
would set a bit or flag or increment a counter, for example. If
configured in the flag word to accept an argument anyway, the result
is an argument that is advertised in "program -h" output only to be
rejected by parse-options::get_value.
Luckily all current users of these option types use PARSE_OPT_NOARG
and do not use PARSE_OPT_OPTARG. Add a check to ensure that that
remains true. The check is run once for each invocation of
parse_option_start().

A dashless switch (like '(' passed to 'git grep') cannot be negated,
cannot be attached to an argument, and cannot have a long form.
Currently parse-options runs the related sanity checks when the
dashless option is used; better to always check them at the start of
option parsing, so mistakes can be caught more quickly.
The error message at the new call site is less specific about the
nature of the error, for simplicity. On the other hand, it prints
which switch was problematic. Before:
fatal: BUG: dashless options can't be long
After:
error: BUG: switch '(' uses feature not supported for dashless options

The PARSE_OPT_LASTARG_DEFAULT flag is meant for options like
--contains that (1) traditionally had a mandatory argument and
(2) have some better behavior to use when appearing in the final
position. It makes no sense to combine this with OPTARG, so ever
since v1.6.4-rc0~71 (parse-options: add parse_options_check to
validate option specs, 2009-07-09) this mistake is flagged with
error: `--option` uses incompatible flags LASTARG_DEFAULT and OPTARG
and an exit status representing an error in commandline usage.
Unfortunately that which might confuse scripters calling such an
erroneous program into thinking the _script_ contains an error.
Clarify that it is an internal error by dying with a message beginning
"error: BUG: ..." and status 128.
While at it, clean up parse_options_check to prepare for more checks.
Long term, it would be nicer to make such checks happen at compile
time.
