4812a93a8c pack-objects: check pack.window for default window size
For some repositories, deltas simply don't make sense. One can disable
them for git-repack by adding --window, but git-push insists on making
the deltas which can be very CPU-intensive for little benefit.

ce1a79b6a7 tar-tree: add the "tar.umask" config option
By default, git-tar-tree(1) sets file and directories modes to 0666
or 0777. While this is both useful and acceptable for projects such
as the Linux Kernel, it might be excessive for other projects. With
this variable, it becomes possible to tell git-tar-tree(1) to apply
a specific umask to the modes above. The special value "user"
indicates that the user's current umask will be used. This should be
enough for most projects, as it will lead to the same permissions as
git-checkout(1) would use. The default value remains 0, which means
world read-write.

93821bd97a sha1_file: add the ability to parse objects in "pack file format"
The pack-file format is slightly different from the traditional git
object format, in that it has a much denser binary header encoding.
The traditional format uses an ASCII string with type and length
information, which is somewhat wasteful.

A new object format starts with uncompressed binary header
followed by compressed payload -- this will allow us later to
copy the payload straight to packfiles.

Obviously they cannot be read by older versions of git, so for
now new object files are created with the traditional format.
core.legacyheaders configuration item, when set to false makes
the code write in new format for people to experiment with.

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.

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.

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.
