b68ea12e30 diff.c: respect diff.renames config option
diff.renames is mentioned several times in the documentation,
but to my surprise it didn't do anything before this patch.

Also add the --no-renames option to override this from the
command-line.

12f6c308d5 Make zlib compression level configurable, and change default.
With the change in default, "git add ." on kernel dir is about
twice as fast as before, with only minimal (0.5%) change in
object size. The speed difference is even more noticeable
when committing large files, which is now up to 8 times faster.

The configurability is through setting core.compression = [-1..9]
which maps to the zlib constants; -1 is the default, 0 is no
compression, and 1..9 are various speed/size tradeoffs, 9
being slowest.

a51d37c1df Add git-instaweb, instantly browse the working repo with gitweb
I got tired of having to configure gitweb for every repository
I work on.  I sometimes prefer gitweb to standard GUIs like gitk
or gitview; so this lets me automatically configure gitweb to
browse my working repository and also opens my browser to it.

Updates from the original patch:

Added Apache/mod_perl2 compatibility if Dennis Stosberg's gitweb

0d2c9d67d9 Add '...' operator for revisions
'A...B' is a shortcut for 'A B --not $(git-merge-base --all A B)'.
This XOR-like operation is called symmetric difference in set
theory.

The symbol '...' has been chosen because it's rather similar to the
existing '..' operator and the somewhat more natural caret ('^') is
already taken.

Makefiles in subdirectories now use existing value of INSTALL, bindir,
mandir if it is set, allowing those to be set in main Makefile or in

7d0c68871a git-merge --squash
Some people tend to do many little commits on a topic branch,
recording all the trials and errors, and when the topic is
reasonably cooked well, would want to record the net effect of
the series as one commit on top of the mainline, removing the
cruft from the history.  The topic is then abandoned or forked
off again from that point at the mainline.

The barebone porcelainish that comes with core git tools does
not officially support such operation, but you can fake it by
using "git pull --no-merge" when such a topic branch is not a
strict superset of the mainline, like this:

	git checkout mainline
	git pull --no-commit . that-topic-branch
	: fix conflicts if any
	rm -f .git/MERGE_HEAD
        git commit -a -m 'consolidated commit log message'
	git branch -f that-topic-branch ;# now fully merged

This however does not work when the topic branch is a fast
forward of the mainline, because normal "git pull" will never
create a merge commit in such a case, and there is nothing
special --no-commit could do to begin with.

This patch introduces a new option, --squash, to support such a
workflow officially in both fast-forward case and true merge
case.  The user-level operation would be the same in both cases:

	git checkout mainline
        git pull --squash . that-topic-branch
        : fix conflicts if any -- naturally, there would be
        : no conflict if fast forward.
	git commit -a -m  'consolidated commit log message'
	git branch -f that-topic-branch ;# now fully merged

When the current branch is already up-to-date with respect to
the other branch, there truly is nothing to do, so the new
option does not have any effect.

This was brought up in #git IRC channel recently.

79ee555bac Check and document the options to prevent mistakes.
When multiple recipients are given to git-send-email on the same
--cc line the code does not properly handle it.

Full and proper parsing of the email addresses so I can detect
which commas mean a new email address is more than I care to implement.

In particular this email address: "bibo,mao" <bibo.mao@intel.com>
must not be treated as two email addresses.

So this patch simply treats all commas in recipient lists as
an error and fails if one is given.

At the same time it documents that git-send-email wants multiple
instances of --cc specified on the command line if you want to
cc multiple recipients.

f1fe3846e4 tutorial: expanded discussion of commit history
Expand the history-browsing section of the tutorial a bit, in part to
address Junio's suggestion that we mention "git grep" and Linus's
complaint that people are missing the flexibility of the commandline
interfaces for selecting commits.

This reads a little more like a collection of examples than a
"tutorial", but maybe that's what people need at this point.

a shell I/O redirection.  This is more in line with typical GIT
commands and allows -b to be logged according to the normal ref
logging rules.

cce91a2cae Change 'master@noon' syntax to 'master@{noon}'.
Its ambiguous to parse "master@2006-05-17 18:30:foo" when foo is
meant as a file name and ":30" is meant as 30 minutes past 6 pm.
Therefore all date specifications in a sha1 expression must now
appear within brackets and the ':' splitter used for the path name
in a sha1 expression ignores ':' appearing within brackets.

d3d8f361a8 Implement git-quiltimport
Importing a quilt patch series into git is not very difficult
but parsing the patch descriptions and all of the other
minutia take a bit of effort to get right, so this automates it.

Since git and quilt complement each other it makes sense
to make it easy to go back and forth between the two.

If a patch is encountered that it cannot derive the author
from the user is asked.

If config parameter core.logAllRefUpdates is true or the log
file already exists then append a line to ".git/logs/refs/<ref>"
whenever git-update-ref <ref> is executed.  Each log line contains
the following information:

  oldsha1 <SP> newsha1 <SP> committer <LF>

where committer is the current user, date, time and timezone in
the standard GIT ident format.  If the caller is unable to append
to the log file then git-update-ref will fail without updating <ref>.

An optional message may be included in the log line with the -m flag.
