Since bc7a96a (mergetool--lib: Refactor tools into separate files,
2011-08-18), it is possible to add a new diff tool by creating a simple
script in the '$(git --exec-path)/mergetools' directory. Updating the
difftool help text is still a manual process, and the documentation can
easily go out of sync.
This commit teaches difftool the '--tool-help' option, which:
- Reads the list of valid tools from 'mergetools/*'
- Determines which of them are actually installed
- Determines which are capable of diffing (i.e. not just a merge tool)
- Prints the resulting list for the user

When 'difftool' is called to compare a range of commits that modify
more than one file, it opens a separate instance of the diff tool for
each file that changed.
The new '--dir-diff' option copies all the modified files to a temporary
location and runs a directory diff on them in a single instance of the
diff tool.

The bash completion doesn't work when certain options to git itself are
specified, e.g. 'git --no-pager <TAB>' errors out with
error: invalid key: alias.--no-pager
The main _git() completion function finds out the git command name by
looping through all the words on the command line and searching for
the first word that is not a known option for the git command.
Unfortunately the list of known git options was not updated in a long
time, and newer options are not skipped but mistaken for a git command.
Such a misrecognized "command" is then passed to __git_aliased_command(),
which in turn passes it to a 'git config' query, hence the error.
Currently the following options are misrecognized for a git command:
-c --no-pager --exec-path --html-path --man-path --info-path
--no-replace-objects --work-tree= --namespace=
To fix this we could just update the list of options to be skipped,
but the same issue will likely arise, if the git command learns a new
option in the future. Therefore, to make it more future proof against
new options, this patch changes that loop to skip all option-looking
words, i.e. words starting with a dash.
We also have to handle the '-c' option specially, because it takes a
configutation parameter in a separate word, which must be skipped,
too.

"--exec-path" looks to the completion script like an unambiguous
successful completion, but it is wrong to emit a SP after it as if
declaring that we are done with completion; the user could be trying
to do
git --exec-path; # print name of helper directory
or
git --exec-path=/path/to/alternative/helper/dir <subcommand>
so the most helpful thing to do is to leave out the trailing space and
leave it to the operator to type an equal sign or carriage return
according to the situation.

Exiting from a for-loop early using '|| break' does not propagate the
failure code, and for this reason, the tests used just 'exit'. But this

Fix this by moving the loop into a shell function, from which we can

git-gc executes many sub-commands. The argument list for
some of these is constant, but for others we add more
arguments at runtime. The latter is implemented by allocating
a constant extra number of NULLs, and either using a custom
append function, or just referencing unused slots by number.
As of commit 7e52f56, which added two new arguments, it is
possible to exceed the constant number of slots for "repack"
by running "git gc --aggressive", causing "git gc" to die.
This patch converts all of the static argv lists to use
argv-array. In addition to fixing the overflow caused by
7e52f56, it has a few advantages:
1. We can drop the custom append function (which,
incidentally, had an off-by-one error exacerbating the
static limit).
2. We can drop the ugly magic numbers used when adding
arguments to "prune".
3. Adding further arguments will be easier; you can just
add new "push" calls without worrying about increasing
any static limits.

An empty argv-array is initialized to point to a static
empty NULL-terminated array. The original implementation
separates the actual storage of the NULL-terminator from the
pointer to the list. This makes the exposed type a "const
char **", which nicely matches the type stored by the
argv-array.
However, this indirection means that one cannot use
empty_argv to initialize a static variable, since it is
not a constant.
Instead, we can expose empty_argv directly, as an array of
pointers. The only place we use it is in the ARGV_ARRAY_INIT
initializer, and it decays to a pointer appropriately there.

The eval_gettext (and eval_gettextln) i18n shell functions call
git-sh-i18n--envsubst to process the variable references in the
string parameter. Unfortunately, environment variables are case
insensitive on windows, which leads to failure on cygwin when
eval_gettext exports $path.
Commit df599e9 (Windows: teach getenv to do a case-sensitive search,
06-06-2011) attempts to solve this problem on MinGW by overriding
the system getenv() function to allow git-sh-i18n--envsubst to read
$path rather than $PATH from the environment. However, this commit
does not address cygwin at all and, furthermore, does not fix all
problems on MinGW.
In particular, when executing test #38 in t7400-submodule-basic.sh,
an 'git-sh-i18n-envsubst.exe - Unable To Locate Component' dialog
pops up saying that the application "failed to start because
libiconv2.dll was not found." After studying the voluminous trace
output from the process monitor, it is clear that the system is
attempting to use $path, rather than $PATH, to search for the DLL
file. (Note that, after dismissing the dialog, the test passes
anyway!)
As an alternative, we finesse the problem by renaming the $path
variable to $sm_path (submodule path). This fixes the problem on
MinGW along with all test failures on cygwin (t7400.{7,32,34},
t7406.3 and t7407.{2,6}). We note that the foreach subcommand
provides $path to user scripts (ie it is part of the API), so we
can't simply rename it to $sm_path.

The current t9300-fast-import.sh test number 62 ("L: nested tree
copy does not corrupt deltas") was introduced in commit 9a0edb79
("fast-import: add a test for tree delta base corruption",
15-08-2011). A fix for the demonstrated problem was introduced
by commit 8fb3ad76 ("fast-import: prevent producing bad delta",
15-08-2011). However, this fix didn't work on MinGW and so this
test has always failed on MinGW.
Part of the solution in commit 8fb3ad76 was to add an NO_DELTA
preprocessor constant which was defined as follows:
+/*
+ * We abuse the setuid bit on directories to mean "do not delta".
+ */
+#define NO_DELTA S_ISUID
+
Unfortunately, the S_ISUID constant on MinGW is defined as zero.
In order to fix the problem, we simply alter the definition of
S_ISUID in the mingw header file to a more appropriate value.
Also, we take the opportunity to similarly define S_ISGID and
S_ISVTX.

Instead of waiting until we record the parents of resulting merge, reduce
redundant parents (including our HEAD) immediately after reading them.
The change to t7602 illustrates the essence of the effect of this change.
The octopus merge strategy used to be fed with redundant commits only to
discard them as "up-to-date", but we no longer feed such redundant commits
to it and the affected test degenerates to a regular two-head merge.
And obviously the known-to-be-broken test in t6028 is now fixed.

The recent change to use SHELL_PATH instead of "sh" to spawn shell commands
is not suited for Windows:
- The default setting, "/bin/sh", does not work when git has to run the
shell because it is a POSIX style path, but not a proper Windows style
path.
- If it worked, it would hard-code a position in the files system where
the shell is expected, making git (more precisely, the POSIX toolset that
is needed alongside git) non-relocatable. But we cannot sacrifice
relocatability on Windows.
- Apart from that, even though the Makefile leaves SHELL_PATH set to
"/bin/sh" for the Windows builds, the build system passes a mangled path
to the compiler, and something like "D:/Src/msysgit/bin/sh" is used,
which is doubly bad because it points to where /bin/sh resolves to on
the system where git was built.
- Finally, the system's CreateProcess() function that is used under
mingw.c's hood does not work with forward slashes and cannot find the
shell.
Undo the earlier change on Windows.
