This does:
- add a "rev.simplify_history" flag which defaults to on
- it turns it off for "git whatchanged" (which thus now has real
semantics outside of "git log")
- it adds a command line flag ("--full-history") to turn it off for
others (ie you can make "git log" and "gitk" etc get the semantics if
you want to.
Now, just as an example of _why_ you really really really want to simplify
history by default, apply this patch, install it, and try these two
command lines:
gitk --full-history -- git.c
gitk -- git.c
and compare the output.
So with this, you can also now do
git whatchanged -p -- gitweb.cgi
git log -p --full-history -- gitweb.cgi
and it will show the old history of gitweb.cgi, even though it's not
relevant to the _current_ state of the name "gitweb.cgi"
NOTE NOTE NOTE! It will still actually simplify away merges that didn't
change anything at all into either child. That creates these bogus strange
discontinuities if you look at it with "gitk" (look at the --full-history
gitk output for git.c, and you'll see a few strange cases).
So the whole "--parent" thing ends up somewhat bogus with --full-history
because of this, but I'm not sure it's worth even worrying about. I don't
think you'd ever want to really use "--full-history" with the graphical
representation, I just give it as an example exactly to show _why_ doing
so would be insane.
I think this is trivial enough and useful enough to be worth merging into
the stable branch.

Ok, this was nastier than expected, just because the dependencies between
the different log-printing stuff were absolutely _everywhere_, but here's
a patch that does exactly that.
The patch is not very easy to read, and the "--patch-with-stat" thing is
still broken (it does not call the "show_log()" thing properly for
merges). That's not a new bug. In the new world order it _should_ do
something like
if (rev->logopt)
show_log(rev, rev->logopt, "---\n");
but it doesn't. I haven't looked at the --with-stat logic, so I left it
alone.
That said, this patch removes more lines than it adds, and in particular,
the "cmd_log_wc()" loop is now a very clean:
while ((commit = get_revision(rev)) != NULL) {
log_tree_commit(rev, commit);
free(commit->buffer);
commit->buffer = NULL;
}
so it doesn't get much prettier than this. All the complexity is entirely
hidden in log-tree.c, and any code that needs to flush the log literally
just needs to do the "if (rev->logopt) show_log(...)" incantation.
I had to make the combined_diff() logic take a "struct rev_info" instead
of just a "struct diff_options", but that part is pretty clean.
This does change "git whatchanged" from using "diff-tree" as the commit
descriptor to "commit", and I changed one of the tests to reflect that new
reality. Otherwise everything still passes, and my other tests look fine
too.

This uses the "--no-walk" flag that I never actually implemented (but I'm
sure I mentioned it) to make "git show" be essentially the same thing as
"git whatchanged --no-walk".
It just refuses to add more interesting parents to the revision walking
history, so you don't actually get any history, you just get the commit
you asked for.
I was going to add "--no-walk" as a real argument flag to git-rev-list
too, but I'm not sure anybody actually needs it. Although it might be
useful for porcelain, so I left the door open.

This basically does a few things that are sadly somewhat interdependent,
and nontrivial to split out
- get rid of "struct log_tree_opt"
The fields in "log_tree_opt" are moved into "struct rev_info", and all
users of log_tree_opt are changed to use the rev_info struct instead.
- add the parsing for the log_tree_opt arguments to "setup_revision()"
- make setup_revision set a flag (revs->diff) if the diff-related
arguments were used. This allows "git log" to decide whether it wants
to show diffs or not.
- make setup_revision() also initialize the diffopt part of rev_info
(which we had from before, but we just didn't initialize it)
- make setup_revision() do all the "finishing touches" on it all (it will
do the proper flag combination logic, and call "diff_setup_done()")
Now, that was the easy and straightforward part.
The slightly more involved part is that some of the programs that want to
use the new-and-improved rev_info parsing don't actually want _commits_,
they may want tree'ish arguments instead. That meant that I had to change
setup_revision() to parse the arguments not into the "revs->commits" list,
but into the "revs->pending_objects" list.
Then, when we do "prepare_revision_walk()", we walk that list, and create
the sorted commit list from there.
This actually cleaned some stuff up, but it's the less obvious part of the
patch, and re-organized the "revision.c" logic somewhat. It actually paves
the way for splitting argument parsing _entirely_ out of "revision.c",
since now the argument parsing really is totally independent of the commit
walking: that didn't use to be true, since there was lots of overlap with
get_commit_reference() handling etc, now the _only_ overlap is the shared
(and trivial) "add_pending_object()" thing.
However, I didn't do that file split, just because I wanted the diff
itself to be smaller, and show the actual changes more clearly. If this
gets accepted, I'll do further cleanups then - that includes the file
split, but also using the new infrastructure to do a nicer "git diff" etc.
Even in this form, it actually ends up removing more lines than it adds.
It's nice to note how simple and straightforward this makes the built-in
"git log" command, even though it continues to support all the diff flags
too. It doesn't get much simpler that this.
I think this is worth merging soonish, because it does allow for future
cleanup and even more sharing of code. However, it obviously touches
"revision.c", which is subtle. I've tested that it passes all the tests we
have, and it passes my "looks sane" detector, but somebody else should
also give it a good look-over.

The parent rewriting feature caused us to create the whole history in one
go, and then simplify it later, because of how rewrite_parents() had been
written. However, with a little tweaking, it's perfectly possible to do
even that one incrementally.
Right now, this doesn't really much matter, because every user of
"--parents" will probably generally _also_ use "--topo-order", which will
cause the old non-incremental behaviour anyway. However, I'm hopeful that
we could make even the topological sort incremental, or at least
_partially_ so (for example, make it incremental up to the first merge).
In the meantime, this at least moves things in the right direction, and
removes a strange special case.

With the new --boundary flag, the output from rev-list includes
the UNINTERESING commits at the boundary, which are usually not
shown. Their object names are prefixed with '-'.
For example, with this graph:
C side
/
A---B---D master
You would get something like this:
$ git rev-list --boundary --header --parents side..master
D B
tree D^{tree}
parent B
... log message for commit D here ...
\0-B A
tree B^{tree}
parent A
... log message for commit B here ...
\0

This ports the following options from rev-list based git-log
implementation:
* -<n>, -n<n>, and -n <n>. I am still wondering if we want
this natively supported by setup_revisions(), which already
takes --max-count. We may want to move them in the next
round. Also I am not sure if we can get away with not
setting revs->limited when we set max-count. The latest
rev-list.c and revision.c in this series do not, so I left
them as they are.
* --pretty and --pretty=<fmt>.
* --abbrev=<n> and --no-abbrev.
The previous commit already handles time-based limiters
(--since, --until and friends). The remaining things that
rev-list based git-log happens to do are not useful in a pure
log-viewing purposes, and not ported:
* --bisect (obviously).
* --header. I am actually in favor of doing the NUL
terminated record format, but rev-list based one always
passed --pretty, which defeated this option. Maybe next
round.
* --parents. I do not think of a reason a log viewer wants
this. The flag is primarily for feeding squashed history
via pipe to downstream tools.

This really just splits things up partially, and creates the
interface to set things up by parsing the command line.
No real code changes so far, although the parsing of filenames is a bit
stricter. In particular, if there is a "--", then we do not accept any
filenames before it, and if there isn't any "--", then we check that _all_
paths listed are valid, not just the first one.
The new argument parsing automatically also gives us "--default" and
"--not" handling as in git-rev-parse.

Also, make it a fatal error to pass in a non-commit object. The callers
never checked, so better check here.
This simplifies merge-base further. It's now so trivial that it's almost
ridiculous.
- mark_reachable() can be more generic, marking the reachable revisions
with an arbitrary mask.
- date parsing will parse to a date of 0 rather than ULONG_MAX for the
bad old case, sorting the dates correctly.
This also drops the old-style date parsing. We just don't care
enough, since we dropped that format pretty early.
Yes, this could do with some cleanup, and a common library file.
Some day.
It's really a very generic thing: the notion of one sha1 revision
referring to another one. "fsck" uses it for all nodes, and "rev-tree"
only tracks commit-node relationships, but the code was already
the same - now we just make that explicit by moving it to a common
header file.
