If we are given a merge type we don't understand in checkout_op there
is probably a bug in git-gui somewhere that allowed this unknown merge
strategy to come into this part of the code path. We currently only
recognize three merge types ('none', 'ff' and 'reset') but are going
to be supporting more in the future. Rather than keep editing this
message I'm going with a very generic "Uh, we don't do that!" type of
error.

In both the ff and reset merge_types supported by checkout_op the
result is the same if the merge base of our target commit and the
existing commit is the existing commit: its a fast-forward as the
existing commit is fully contained in the target commit.
This minor cleanup in logic will make it easier to implement a
new kind of merge_type that actually merges the two trees with a
real merge strategy, such as git-merge-recursive.

I've decided to teach checkout_op how to perform more than just a
fast-forward and reset type of merge. This way we can also do a full
recursive merge even when we are recreating an existing branch from
a remote. To help with that process I'm saving the merge-base we
computed during the ff/reset/fail decision process, in case we need
it later on when we actually start a true merge operation.

A few users have been seeing crashes in Tk when using the undo key
binding to undo the last few keystroke events in the commit buffer.
Unfortunately that means the user loses their commit message and
must start over from scratch when the user restarts the process.
git-gui now saves the user's commit message buffer every couple of
seconds to a temporary file under .git (specifically .git/GITGUI_BCK).
At exit time we rename this file to .git/GITGUI_MSG if there is a
message, the file exists, and it is currently synchronized with the
Tk buffer. Otherwise we do our usual routine of saving the Tk buffer
to .git/GITGUI_MSG and delete .git/GITGUI_BCK, if it exists.
During startup we favor .git/GITGUI_BCK over .git/GITGUI_MSG. This
way a crash doesn't take out the user's message buffer but instead
will cause the user to lose only a few keystrokes. Most people do
not type more than 200 WPM, and with 30 possible saves per minute
we are unlikely to lose more than 7 words.

This replaces the script "git-tag.sh" with "builtin-tag.c".
The existing test suite for "git tag" guarantees the compatibility
with the features provided by the script version.
There are some minor changes in the behaviour of "git tag" here:
"git tag -v" now can get more than one tag to verify, like "git tag -d" does,
"git tag" with no arguments prints all tags, more like "git branch" does,
and "git tag -n" also prints all tags with annotations (without needing -l).
Tests and documentation were also updated to reflect these changes.
The program is currently calling the script "git verify-tag" for verify.
This can be changed porting it to C and calling its functions directly
from builtin-tag.c.

I'm working on refactoring the UI of the merge dialog, because as it
currently stands the dialog is absolutely horrible, especially when
you have 200+ branches available from a single remote system.
In that refactoring I plan on using the choose_rev widget to allow
the user to select exactly which branch/commit they want to merge.
However since that only selects a single commit I'm first removing
the code that supports octopus merges.
A brief consultation on #git tonight seemed to indicate that the
octopus merge strategy is not as useful as originally thought when
it was invented, and that most people don't commonly use them. So
making users fall back to the command line to create an octopus is
actually maybe a good idea here, as they might think twice before
they use it.

The new name is closer to the purpose of the function.
A NUL-terminated buffer makes things easier when callers need that.
Since the function returns only the memory written with data,
almost always allocating more space than needed because final
size is unknown, an extra NUL terminating the buffer is harmless.
It is not included in the returned size, so the function
remains working as before.
Also, now the function allows the buffer passed to be NULL at first,
and alloc_nr is now used for growing the buffer, instead size=*2.

At least in the kernel development community, we're generally slowly
converting to UTF-8 everywhere, and the old default of Latin1 in emails is
being supplanted by UTF-8, and it doesn't necessarily show up as such in
the mail headers (because, quite frankly, when people send patches
around, they want the email client to do as little as humanly possible
about the patch)
Despite that, it's often the case that email addresses etc still have
Latin1, so I've seen emails where this is a mixed bag, with Signed-off
parts being copied from email (and containing Latin1 characters), and the
rest of the email being a patch in UTF-8.
So this suggests a very natural change: if the target character set is
utf-8 (the default), and if the source already looks like utf-8, just
assume that it doesn't need any conversion at all.
Only assume that it needs conversion if it isn't already valid utf-8, in
which case we (for historical reasons) will assume it's Latin1.
Basically no really _valid_ latin1 will ever look like utf-8, so while
this changes our historical behaviour, it doesn't do so in practice, and
makes the default behaviour saner for the case where the input was already
in proper format.
We could do a more fancy guess, of course, but this correctly handled a
series of patches I just got from Andrew that had a mixture of Latin1 and
UTF-8 (in different emails, but without any character set indication).

When "git checkout-index" checks out path A/B/C, it makes sure A
and A/B are truly directories; if there is a regular file or
symlink at A, we prefer to remove it.
We used to do this by catching an error return from mkdir(2),
and on EEXIST did unlink(2), and when it succeeded, tried
another mkdir(2).
Thomas Glanzmann found out the above does not work on Solaris
for a root user, as unlink(2) was so old fashioned there that it
allowed to unlink a directory.
As pointed out, this still doesn't guarantee that git won't call
"unlink()" on a directory (race conditions etc), but that's
fundamentally true (there is no "funlink()" like there is
"fstat()"), and besides, that is in no way git-specific (ie it's
true of any application that gets run as root).

I'm moving the code related to looking to see if we should GC now
into a procedure closer to where it belongs, the database module.
This reduces our script by a few lines for the single commit case

We now perform the check after we have been running for at least
1 second. This way the main window has time to open up and our
dialog (if we open it) will attach to the main window, instead of
floating out in no-mans-land like it did before on Mac OS X.
I had to use a wait of a full second here as a wait of 1 millisecond
made our console install itself into the main window. Apparently we
had a race condition with the console code where both the console and

Some users may do odd things, like tag their own private version of
Git with an annotated tag such as 'testver', then compile that git
and try to use it with git-gui. In such a case `git --version` will
give us 'git version testver', which is not a numeric argument that
we can pass off to our version comparsion routine.
We now check that the cleaned up git version is a going to pass the
version comparsion routine without failure. If it has a non-numeric
component, or lacks at least a minor revision then we ask the user to
confirm they really want to use this version of git within git-gui.
If they do we shall assume it is git 1.5.0 and run with only the code
that will support.

Instead of running a full git-count-objects to count all of the loose
objects we can get a reasonably close approximation by counting the
number of files in the .git/objects/42 subdirectory. This works out
reasonably well because the SHA-1 hash has a fairly even distribution,
so every .git/objects/?? subdirectory should get a relatively equal
number of files. If we have at least 8 files in .git/objects/42 than it
is very likely there is about 8 files in every other directory, leaving
us with around 2048 loose objects.
This check is much faster, as we need to only perform a readdir of
a single directory, and we can do it directly from Tcl and avoid the
costly fork+exec.
All of the credit on how clever this is goes to Linus Torvalds; he
suggested using this trick in a post commit hook to repack every so
