5f85505265 gitweb: Fix error in git_patchset_body for deletion in merge commit
Checking if $diffinfo->{'status'} is equal 'D' is no longer the way to
check if the file was deleted in result.  For merge commits
$diffinfo->{'status'} is reference to array of statuses for each
parent.  Use the fact that $diffinfo->{'to_id'} is all zeros as sign
that file was deleted in result.

b9e7efb8b5 git-gui: Gracefully handle bad TCL_PATH at compile time
Petr Baudis pointed out the main git.git repository's Makefile dies
now if git-gui 0.7.0-rc1 or later is being used and TCL_PATH was not
set to a working tclsh program path.  This breaks people who may have
a working build configuration today and suddenly upgrade to the latest
git release.

The tclIndex is required for git-gui to load its associated lib files,
but using the Tcl auto_load procedure to source only the files we need
is a performance optimization.  We can emulate the auto_load by just
source'ing every file in that directory, assuming we source class.tcl
first to initialize our crude class system.

d26c4264e5 gitweb: Empty patch for merge means trivial merge, not no differences
Earlier commit 4280cde95f made gitweb
show "No differences found" message for empty diff, for the HTML
output. But for merge commits, either -c format we use or --cc format,
empty diff doesn't mean no differences, but trivial merge.

Show "Trivial merge" message instead of "No differences found" for
merges.

7e431ef9ab gitweb: Separate search regexp from search text
Separate search text, which is saved in $searchtext global variable,
and is used in links, as default value for the textfield in search
form, and for pickaxe search, from search regexp, which is saved in
$search_regexp global variable, and is used as parameter to --grep,
--committer or --author options to git-rev-list, and for searching
commit body in gitweb.  For now $search_regexp is unconditionallt
equal to quotemeta($searchtext), meaning that we always search for
fixed string.

This fixes bug where 'next page' links for 'search' view didn't work
for searchtext containing quotable characters, like `@'.

b211c320eb gitweb: Do not use absolute font sizes
David Kågedal proposed that gitweb should explicitely request

long lines. However gitweb presents a table with several
columns, so having wider line is OK for it. Therefore explicit
'font-size: small' would make sense.  Apparently many people on

cf606e3ddd git name-rev writes beyond the end of malloc() with large generations
When using git name-rev on my kernel tree I triggered a malloc()
corruption warning from glibc.

apw@pinky$ git log --pretty=one $N/base.. | git name-rev --stdin
*** glibc detected *** malloc(): memory corruption: 0x0bff8950 ***
Aborted

This comes from name_rev() which is building the name of the revision
in a malloc'd string, which it sprintf's into:

	char *new_name = xmalloc(len + 8);
	[...]
		sprintf(new_name, "%.*s~%d^%d", len, tip_name,
				generation, parent_number);

This allocation is only sufficient if the generation number is
less than 5 digits, in my case generation was 13432.  In reality
parent_number can be up to 16 so that also can require two digits,
reducing us to 3 digits before we are at risk of blowing this
allocation.

This patch introduces a decimal_length() which approximates the
number of digits a type may hold, it produces the following:

Type                 Longest Value          Len  Est
----                 -------------          ---  ---
unsigned char        256                      3    4
unsigned short       65536                    5    6
unsigned long        4294967296              10   11
unsigned long long   18446744073709551616    20   21
char                 -128                     4    4
short                -32768                   6    6
long                 -2147483648             11   11
long long            -9223372036854775808    20   21

This is then used to size the new_name.

Runtime is now independent of the number of modified files.

to be applied. The new code calls 'cvs status' only once with all touched files

af9b54bb2c Use $Id$ as the ident attribute keyword rather than $ident$ to be consistent with other VCSs
$Id$ is present already in SVN and CVS; it would mean that people
converting their existing repositories won't have to make any changes to
the source files should they want to make use of the ident attribute.

Given that it's a feature that's meant to calm those very people, it
seems obtuse to make them edit every file just to make use of it.

I think that bzr uses $Id$; Mercurial has examples hooks for $Id$;
monotone has $Id$ on its wishlist.  I can't think of a good reason not
to stick with the de-facto standard and call ours $Id$ instead of
$ident$.

4a1bb4c3f8 git-svn: don't attempt to minimize URLs by default
For tracking branches and tags, git-svn prefers to connect
to the root of the repository or at least the level that
houses branches and tags as well as trunk.  However, users
that are accustomed to tracking a single directory have
no use for this feature.

As pointed out by Junio, users may not have permissions to
connect to connect to a higher-level path in the repository.

While the current minimize_url() function detects lack of
permissions to certain paths _after_ successful logins, it
cannot effectively determine if it is trying to access a
login-only portion of a repo when the user expects to
connect to a part where anonymous access is allowed.

For people used to the git-svnimport switches of
--trunk, --tags, --branches, they'll already pass the
repository root (or root+subdirectory), so minimize URL
isn't of too much use to them, either.

For people *not* used to git-svnimport, git-svn also
supports:

 git svn init --minimize-url \
  --trunk http://repository-root/foo/trunk \
  --branches http://repository-root/foo/branches \
  --tags http://repository-root/foo/tags

And this is where the new --minimize-url command-line switch
comes in to allow for this behavior to continue working.

0dc03d6a30 git-svn: clean up caching of SVN::Ra functions
This patch was originally intended to make the Perl GC more
sensitive to the SVN::Pool objects and not accidentally clean
them up when they shouldn't be (causing segfaults).  That didn't
work, but this patch makes the code a bit cleaner regardless

Put our caches for get_dir and check_path calls directly into
the SVN::Ra object so they auto-expire when it is destroyed.

dirents returned by get_dir() no longer needs the pool object
stored persistently along with the cache data, as they'll be
converted to native Perl hash references.

Since calling rev_proplist repeatedly per-revision is no longer
needed in git-svn, we do not cache calls to it.

ae9ee41de8 git-config: do not forget seeing "a.b.var" means we are out of "a.var" section.
Earlier code tried to be half-careful and knew the logic that
seeing "a.var" after seeing "a.b.var" is a sign of the previous
"a.b." section has ended, but forgot it has to handle the other
way.  Seeing "a.b.var" after seeing "a.var" is a sign that "a."
section has ended, so a new "a.var2" variable should be added
before the location "a.b.var" appears.

fdc99cbbdc checkout: allow detaching to HEAD even when switching to the tip of a branch
You cannot currently checkout the tip of an existing branch
without moving to the branch.

This allows you to detach your HEAD and place it at such a
commit, with:

    $ git checkout master^0
