c7c81b3a51 Fix ?: statements.
Omitting the first branch in ?: is a GNU extension.  Cute,
but not supported by other compilers.  Replaced mostly
by explicit tests.  Calls to getenv() simply are repeated
on non-GNU compilers.

Yes, using the same format for the file and the environment variable

lines that begin with '#' to be comments.  ':' is no longer a separator

d5a63b9983 Alternate object pool mechanism updates.
It was a mistake to use GIT_ALTERNATE_OBJECT_DIRECTORIES
environment variable to specify what alternate object pools to
look for missing objects when working with an object database.
It is not a property of the process running the git commands,
but a property of the object database that is partial and needs
other object pools to complete the set of objects it lacks.

This patch allows you to have $GIT_OBJECT_DIRECTORY/info/alternates
whose contents is in exactly the same format as the environment
variable, to let an object database name alternate object pools
it depends on.

70b9829ea7 [PATCH] Parallelize pulling by ssh

This also makes sha1_write_from_fd() support having a buffer of data

this file is a commit ID, followed by parent commit IDs, all
40-byte hex SHA1 separated by a single SP in between.  The

from the commit objects, allowing both adding "fake" parents

ab90ea5d6e [PATCH] Check packs and then files.
This reverses the order of object lookup, to check pack index first and
then go to the filesystem to find .git/objects/??/ hierarchy.

When most of the objects are packed, this saves quite many stat() calls

negligible, even when most of the objects are outside pack, because
checking pack index file is quite cheap.

Nico pointed out that having verify_pack.c and verify-pack.c was
confusing.  Rename verify_pack.c to pack-check.c as suggested,
and enhances the verification done quite a bit.

 - Built-in sha1_file unpacking knows that a base object of a
   deltified object _must_ be in the same pack, and takes
   advantage of that fact.

 - Earlier verify-pack command only checked the SHA1 sum for the
   entire pack file and did not look into its contents.  It now
   checks everything idx file claims to have unpacks correctly.

 - It now has a hook to give more detailed information for
   objects contained in the pack under -v flag.

f9253394a2 [PATCH] Add git-verify-pack command.
Given a list of <pack>.idx files, this command validates the
index file and the corresponding .pack file for consistency.

This patch also uses the same validation mechanism in fsck-cache

During normal operation, sha1_file.c verifies that a given .idx
file matches the .pack file by comparing the SHA1 checksum
stored in .idx file and .pack file as a minimum sanity check.
We may further want to check the pack signature and version when
we map the pack, but that would be a separate patch.

Earlier, errors to map a pack file was not flagged fatal but led
to a random fatal error later.  This version explicitly die()s
when such an error is detected.

When a remote repository is deltified, we need to get the
objects that a deltified object we want to obtain is based upon.
The initial parts of each retrieved SHA1 file is inflated and
inspected to see if it is deltified, and its base object is
asked from the remote side when it is.  Since this partial
inflation and inspection has a small performance hit, it can
optionally be skipped by giving -d flag to git-*-pull commands.
This flag should be used only when the remote repository is
known to have no deltified objects.

everything the remote side has.

8ac069ac0a Introduce GIT_DIR environment variable.
During the mailing list discussion on renaming GIT_ environment
variables, people felt that having one environment that lets the
user (or Porcelain) specify both SHA1_FILE_DIRECTORY (now
GIT_OBJECT_DIRECTORY) and GIT_INDEX_FILE for the default layout
would be handy.  This change introduces GIT_DIR environment
variable, from which the defaults for GIT_INDEX_FILE and
GIT_OBJECT_DIRECTORY are derived.  When GIT_DIR is not defined,
it defaults to ".git".  GIT_INDEX_FILE defaults to
"$GIT_DIR/index" and GIT_OBJECT_DIRECTORY defaults to
"$GIT_DIR/objects".

Special thanks for ideas and discussions go to Petr Baudis and
Daniel Barkalow.  Bugs are mine ;-)

d19938ab60 Rename environment variables.
H. Peter Anvin mentioned that using SHA1_whatever as an
environment variable name is not nice and we should instead use
names starting with "GIT_" prefix to avoid conflicts.  Here is
what this patch does:

 * Renames the following environment variables:

    New name                           Old Name

    GIT_AUTHOR_DATE                    AUTHOR_DATE
    GIT_AUTHOR_EMAIL                   AUTHOR_EMAIL
    GIT_AUTHOR_NAME                    AUTHOR_NAME
    GIT_COMMITTER_EMAIL                COMMIT_AUTHOR_EMAIL
    GIT_COMMITTER_NAME                 COMMIT_AUTHOR_NAME
    GIT_ALTERNATE_OBJECT_DIRECTORIES   SHA1_FILE_DIRECTORIES
    GIT_OBJECT_DIRECTORY               SHA1_FILE_DIRECTORY

 * Introduces a compatibility macro, gitenv(), which does an
   getenv() and if it fails calls gitenv_bc(), which in turn
   picks up the value from old name while giving a warning about
   using an old name.

 * Changes all users of the environment variable to fetch
   environment variable with the new name using gitenv().

 * Updates the documentation and scripts shipped with Linus GIT
   distribution.

The transition plan is as follows:

 * We will keep the backward compatibility list used by gitenv()
   for now, so the current scripts and user environments
   continue to work as before.  The users will get warnings when
   they have old name but not new name in their environment to
   the stderr.

 * The Porcelain layers should start using new names.  However,
   just in case it ends up calling old Plumbing layer
   implementation, they should also export old names, taking
   values from the corresponding new names, during the
   transition period.

 * After a transition period, we would drop the compatibility
   support and drop gitenv().  Revert the callers to directly
   call getenv() but keep using the new names.

   The last part is probably optional and the transition
   duration needs to be set to a reasonable value.

SHA1_FILE_DIRECTORIES environment variable is a colon separated paths

database location mechanism.  This is useful to archive older, rarely

aac1794132 Improve sha1 object file writing.
Make it much safer: we write to a temporary file, and then link that
temporary file to the final destination. This avoids all the nasty
races if several people write the same object at the same time.

It should also result in nicer on-disk layout, since it means that
objects all get created in the same subdirectory. That makes a lot
of block allocation algorithms happier, since the objects will now
be allocated from the same zone.

74400e7175 Add git-write-blob.
A new command, git-write-blob, is introduced.  This registers
the contents of any file on the filesystem as a blob in the
object database and reports its SHA1 to the standard output.
To implement it, the patch promotes index_fd() from a static
function in update-cache.c to extern and moves it to a library
source, sha1_file.c.

This command is used to update git-merge-one-file-script so that
it does not smudge the work tree.

ca4c7db9ef Remove the ugly jit-style parent syntax.
If somebody wants it later, we can re-do it, but for now we consider
it an experiment that wasn't worth it. Git will still honor symbolic
names, it just won't look up parents for you.

Of course, you can always do it by hand if you want to.

35ad33823e Add "look up parent" logic for the simple names.
It uses the jit syntax, at least for now. 0-xxxx is the first parent of xxxx,
while 1-xxxx is the second, and so on. You can use just "-xxxx" for the first
parent, but a lot of commands will think that the initial '-' implies a
command line flag.

For example, this commit has been done with

instead of the traditional "$(cat .git/HEAD)" syntax.

We really don't care about atime, and it sucks to dirty the

This is more than a one-liner only because we need to be able to
clear the O_NOATIME flag in case some of the objects are owned
by others (in which case open will return EPERM), and because not
everybody has the O_NOATIME flag.

f4913f91a9 [PATCH] Accept commit in some places when tree is needed.
This patch implements read_tree_with_tree_or_commit_sha1(),
which can be used when you are interested in reading an unpacked
raw tree data but you do not know nor care if the SHA1 you
obtained your user is a tree ID or a commit ID.  Before this
function's introduction, you would have called read_sha1_file(),
examined its type, parsed it to call read_sha1_file() again if
it is a commit, and verified that the resulting object is a
tree.  Instead, this function does that for you.  It returns
NULL if the given SHA1 is not either a tree or a commit.
