Change the output emitted when an ambiguous object is encountered so
that we show tags first, then commits, followed by trees, and finally
blobs. Within each type we show objects in hashcmp() order. Before
this change the objects were only ordered by hashcmp().
The reason for doing this is that the output looks better as a result,
e.g. the v2.17.0 tag before this change on "git show e8f2" would
display:
hint: The candidates are:
hint: e8f2093055 tree
hint: e8f21caf94 commit 2013-06-24 - bash prompt: print unique detached HEAD abbreviated object name
hint: e8f21d02f7 blob
hint: e8f21d577c blob
hint: e8f25a3a50 tree
hint: e8f26250fa commit 2017-02-03 - Merge pull request #996 from jeffhostetler/jeffhostetler/register_rename_src
hint: e8f2650052 tag v2.17.0
hint: e8f2867228 blob
hint: e8f28d537c tree
hint: e8f2a35526 blob
hint: e8f2bc0c06 commit 2015-05-10 - Documentation: note behavior for multiple remote.url entries
hint: e8f2cf6ec0 tree
Now we'll instead show:
hint: e8f2650052 tag v2.17.0
hint: e8f21caf94 commit 2013-06-24 - bash prompt: print unique detached HEAD abbreviated object name
hint: e8f26250fa commit 2017-02-03 - Merge pull request #996 from jeffhostetler/jeffhostetler/register_rename_src
hint: e8f2bc0c06 commit 2015-05-10 - Documentation: note behavior for multiple remote.url entries
hint: e8f2093055 tree
hint: e8f25a3a50 tree
hint: e8f28d537c tree
hint: e8f2cf6ec0 tree
hint: e8f21d02f7 blob
hint: e8f21d577c blob
hint: e8f2867228 blob
hint: e8f2a35526 blob
Since we show the commit data in the output that's nicely aligned once
we sort by object type. The decision to show tags before commits is
pretty arbitrary. I don't want to order by object_type since there
tags come last after blobs, which doesn't make sense if we want to
show the most important things first.
I could display them after commits, but it's much less likely that
we'll display a tag, so if there is one it makes sense to show it
prominently at the top.
A note on the implementation: Derrick rightly pointed out[1] that
we're bending over backwards here in get_short_oid() to first
de-duplicate the list, and then emit it, but could simply do it in one
step.
The reason for that is that oid_array_for_each_unique() doesn't
actually require that the array be sorted by oid_array_sort(), it just
needs to be sorted in some order that guarantees that all objects with
the same ID are adjacent to one another, which (barring a hash
collision, which'll be someone else's problem) the sort_ambiguous()
function does.
I agree that would be simpler for this code, and had forgotten why I
initially wrote it like this[2]. But on further reflection I think
it's better to do more work here just so we're not underhandedly using
the oid-array API where we lie about the list being sorted. That would
break any subsequent use of oid_array_lookup() in subtle ways.
I could get around that by hacking the API itself to support this
use-case and documenting it, which I did as a WIP patch in [3], but I
think it's too much code smell just for this one call site. It's
simpler for the API to just introduce a oid_array_for_each() function
to eagerly spew out the list without sorting or de-duplication, and
then do the de-duplication and sorting in two passes.

An reusable "memory pool" implementation has been extracted from
fast-import.c, which in turn has become the first user of the
mem-pool API.
* jm/mem-pool:
mem-pool: move reusable parts of memory pool into its own file
fast-import: introduce mem_pool type
fast-import: rename mem_pool type to mp_block
Rename bunch of source files to more consistently use dashes
instead of underscores to connect words.

Recent introduction of "--log-destination" option to "git daemon"
did not work well when the daemon was run under "--inetd" mode.
* lw/daemon-log-destination:
daemon.c: fix condition for redirecting stderr
"git branch --list" during an interrupted "rebase -i" now lets
users distinguish the case where a detached HEAD is being rebased
and a normal branch is being rebased.
* ks/branch-list-detached-rebase-i:
t3200: verify "branch --list" sanity when rebasing from detached HEAD
branch --list: print useful info whilst interactive rebasing a detached HEAD
"cd sub/dir && git commit ../path" ought to record the changes to
the file "sub/path", but this regressed long time ago.
* bw/commit-partial-from-subdirectory-fix:
commit: allow partial commits with relative paths
Some codepaths, including the refs API, get and keep relative
paths, that go out of sync when the process does chdir(2). The
chdir-notify API is introduced to let these codepaths adjust these
cached paths to the new current directory.
* jk/relative-directory-fix:
refs: use chdir_notify to update cached relative paths
set_work_tree: use chdir_notify
add chdir-notify API
trace.c: export trace_setup_key
set_git_dir: die when setenv() fails
"git rebase" has learned to honor "--signoff" option when using
backends other than "am" (but not "--preserve-merges").
* pw/rebase-signoff:
rebase --keep-empty: always use interactive rebase
rebase -p: error out if --signoff is given
rebase: extend --signoff support
"git rebase --keep-empty" still removed an empty commit if the
other side contained an empty commit (due to the "does an
equivalent patch exist already?" check), which has been corrected.
* pw/rebase-keep-empty-fixes:
rebase: respect --no-keep-empty
rebase -i --keep-empty: don't prune empty commits
rebase --root: stop assuming squash_onto is unset
"git gui" has been taught to work with old versions of tk (like
8.5.7) that do not support "ttk::style theme use" as a way to query
the current theme.
* cb/git-gui-ttk-style:
git-gui: workaround ttk:style theme use
"git gui" performs commit upon CTRL/CMD+ENTER but the
CTRL/CMD+KP_ENTER (i.e. enter key on the numpad) did not have the
same key binding. It now does.
* bp/git-gui-bind-kp-enter:
git-gui: bind CTRL/CMD+numpad ENTER to do_commit
"git gui" learned that "~/.ssh/id_ecdsa.pub" and
"~/.ssh/id_ed25519.pub" are also possible SSH key files.
* bb/git-gui-ssh-key-files:
git-gui: search for all current SSH key types

Instead of just mentioning 'git blame' and 'git shortlog', which make it
quite hard for new contributors to pick out the appropriate list of
people to cc on their patch series, mention the 'git contacts' utility,
which makes it much easier to get a reasonable list of contacts for a

This should help new contributors pick out a reasonable cc list by

Introduce the mem_pool type which encapsulates all the information necessary to
manage a pool of memory. This change moves the existing variables in
fast-import used to support the global memory pool to use this structure. It
also renames variables that are no longer used by memory pools to reflect their
more scoped usage.
These changes allow for the multiple instances of a memory pool to
exist and be reused outside of fast-import. In a future commit the
mem_pool type will be moved to its own file.

This is part of a patch series to extract the memory pool logic in
fast-import into a more generalized version. The existing mem_pool type
maps more closely to a "block of memory" (mp_block) in the more
generalized memory pool. This commit renames the mem_pool to mp_block to
reduce churn in future patches.

fsmonitor currently only flags the index as dirty if the extension is being
added or removed. This is a performance optimization that recognizes you can
stat() a lot of files in less time than it takes to write out an updated index.
This patch makes a small enhancement and flags the index dirty if we end up
having to stat() all files and scan the entire working directory. The assumption
being that must be expensive or you would not have turned on the feature.
