Several frontend developers have asked that some form of stream
comments be permitted within a fast-import data stream. This way
they can include information from their own frontend program about
where specific data was taken from in the source system, or about
a decision that their frontend may have made while creating the
fast-import data stream.
This change introduces comments in the Bourne-shell/Tcl/Perl style.
Lines starting with '#' are ignored, up to and including the LF.
Unlike the above mentioned three languages however we do not look for
and ignore leading whitespace. This just simplifies the definition
of the comment format and the code that parses them.
To make comments work we had to stop using read_next_command() within
cmd_data() and directly invoke read_line() during the inline variant
of the function. This is necessary to retain any lines of the
input data that might otherwise look like a comment to fast-import.

Instead of growing our buffer by hand during the inline variant of
cmd_data() we can save a few lines of code and just use the nifty
new ALLOC_GROW macro already available to us.

Michael Haggerty <mhagger@alum.mit.edu> noticed while debugging a
Git backend for cvs2svn that fast-import was barfing when he tried
to use "TAG_FIXUP" as a branch name for temporary work needed to
cleanup the tree prior to creating an annotated tag object.
The reason we were rejecting the branch name was check_ref_format()
returns -2 when there are less than 2 '/' characters in the input
name. TAG_FIXUP has 0 '/' characters, but is technically just as
valid of a ref as HEAD and MERGE_HEAD, so we really should permit it
(and any other similar looking name) during import.
New test cases have been added to make sure we still detect very
wrong branch names (e.g. containing [ or starting with .) and yet
still permit reasonable names (e.g. TAG_FIXUP).

remove codepath forgot to invalidate the cache-tree entry.

This makes .gitattributes files to be read from the index when
they are not checked out to the work tree. This is in line with
the way we always allowed low-level tools to operate in sparsely
checked out work tree in a reasonable way.
It swaps the order of new file creation and converting the blob
to work tree representation; otherwise when we are in the middle
of checking out .gitattributes we would notice an empty but
unwritten .gitattributes file in the work tree and will ignore
the copy in the index.

This splits out a common routine that parses a single line of

When we compare two non-tracked files, or explicitly
specify --no-index, the suggestion to run git-status
is not helpful.
The patch adds a new diff_options bitfield member, no_index, that
is used instead of the special value of -2 of the rev_info field
max_count to indicate that the index is not to be used. This makes
it possible to pass that flag down to diffcore_skip_stat_unmatch(),
which only has one diff_options parameter.
This could even become a cleanup if we removed all assignments of
max_count to a value of -2 (viz. replacement of a magic value with
a self-documenting field name) but I didn't dare to do that so late
in the rc game..
The no_index bit, if set, then tells diffcore_skip_stat_unmatch()
to not account for any skipped stat-mismatches, which avoids the
suggestion to run git-status.

When you try to merge a path that involves binary file-level
merge, merge-recursive died rudely without cleaning up its own
mess. A files added by the merge were left in the working tree,
but the index was not written out (because it just punted and
died), so it was cumbersome for the user to retry it by first
running "git reset --hard".
This changes merge-recursive to still warn but do the "binary"
merge for such a path; leave the "our" version in the working
tree, but still keep the path unmerged so that the user can sort
it out.

After starting to edit a working tree file but later when your edit ends
up identical to the original (this can also happen when you ran a
wholesale regexp replace with something like "perl -i" that does not
actually modify many of the paths), "git diff" between the index and the
working tree outputs many "empty" diffs that show "diff --git" headers
and nothing else, because these paths are stat-dirty. While it was a
way to warn the user that the earlier action of the user made the index
ineffective as an optimization mechanism, it was felt too loud for the
purpose of warning even to experienced users, and also resulted in
confusing people new to git.
This replaces the "empty" diffs with a single warning message at the
end. Having many such paths hurts performance, and you can run
"git-update-index --refresh" to update the lstat(2) information recorded
in the index in such a case. "git-status" does so as a side effect, and
that is more familiar to the end-user, so we recommend it to them.
The change affects only "git diff" that outputs patch text, because that
is where the annoyance of too many "empty" diff is most strongly felt,
and because the warning message can be safely ignored by downstream
tools without getting mistaken as part of the patch. For the low-level
"git diff-files" and "git diff-index", the traditional behaviour is
retained.
