When git-apply was printing out long filenames, it used to just truncate
them to show the last "max_len" characters of the filename. Which can be
really quite ugly (note the two filenames that have just been silently
truncated from the beginning - it looks even worse when there are lots
of them, like there were in the current v2.6.13-rc4 cris arch update):

The old mode conversion was not only complex, it also refused to change
the length of a mode, which made it fragile. By moving the mode
conversion around a bit, we can not only simplify it, it also ends up
being more powerful.

We historically used to be very careful in fsck-cache, but when it was
re-written to use "parse_object()" instead of parsing everything by
hand, it lost a bit of the checks. This, together with the previous
commit, should make it do more proper commit object syntax checks.
Also add a "--strict" flag, which warns about the old-style "0664" file
mode bits, which shouldn't exist in modern trees, but that happened
early on in git trees and that the default git-fsck-cache thus silently
accepts.

Instead of finding old/new pair that one side has and the
other side does not have the specified string, find old/new pair
that contains the specified string as a substring different

It's stupid. We'd want to rename directories too, but this doesn't do
that yet - easy enough to do per se, we just need to carefully list all
the pathnames that got moved (and remember to ignore the files that
weren't tracked but are in the subdirectory that got moved).
Doing the directory case will require a bit more scripting.. Something like
oldfiles=($(git-ls-files | grep '^$src'))
newfiles=($(git-ls-files | sed ':^$src: s:^$src:$dst:'))
mv $src $dst && git-update-cache --add --remove -- "${oldfiles[@]}" "${newfiles[@]}"
might do it, except it needs to be done right, and carefully. Methinks
perl is probably better at this. Hint hint..

The git-update-server-info command prepares informational files
to help clients discover the contents of a repository, and pull
from it via a dumb transport protocols. Currently, the
following files are produced.
- The $repo/info/refs file lists the name of heads and tags
available in the $repo/refs/ directory, along with their
SHA1. This can be used by git-ls-remote command running on
the client side.
- The $repo/info/rev-cache file describes the commit ancestry
reachable from references in the $repo/refs/ directory. This
file is in an append-only binary format to make the server
side friendly to rsync mirroring scheme, and can be read by
git-show-rev-cache command.
- The $repo/objects/info/pack file lists the name of the packs
available, the interdependencies among them, and the head
commits and tags contained in them. Along with the other two
files, this is designed to help clients to make smart pull
decisions.
The git-receive-pack command is changed to invoke it at the end,
so just after a push to a public repository finishes via "git
push", the server info is automatically updated.
In addition, building of the rev-cache file can be done by a
standalone git-build-rev-cache command separately.

Teach people to use "git tag <tag-name>" instead of writing the current
HEAD by hand into the .git/refs/tags/<tag-name> file. Most people
probably don't really want to know about how git does things internally.
A simple tag is just a direct pointer to the object, while a signed tag
is a pointer to a "tag object" that has a pgp signature and points to
the object we tagged.
Use "git tag -s tagname" to create a signed tag.
The "-f" flag overwrites any previous tag of that name (useful if you
update a tag to point to a newer version for things like "latest" etc
tags that aren't necessarily static versions).
Some people split their long E-mail address over two lines
using the RFC2822 header "folding". We can lose authorship
information this way, so make a minimum effort to deal with it,
instead of special casing only the "Subject:" field.
We could teach mailsplit to unfold the folded header, but
teaching mailinfo about folding would make more sense; a single
message can be fed to mailinfo without going through mailsplit.

debian/git-core.install tells dh_install what files to install in each

so all files go into it.

The Deb packages were missing a dependency on "build install" from the
binary target - this fixes that, and cleans up some inconsistencies
elsewhere in the rulesets.
Traditionally, Debian packaging uses a file called "build-stamp" (or
"install-stamp", etc) in the main source tree. The initial deb package
support for Git tried to move this "build-stamp" file into the debian/
directory, but some instances were missed. That problem, however, was
incidental - the real fix is the missing dependency mentioned above.

We'll mark all the trees at the edges (as deep as we had to go to
realize that we have all the commits needed) as uninteresting.
Otherwise we'll occasionally list a lot of objects that were actually
available at the edge in a commit that we just never ended up parsing
because we could determine early that we had all relevant commits.
NOTE! The object listing is still just a _heuristic_. It's guaranteed
to list a superset of the actual new objects, but there might be the
occasional old object in the list, just because the commit that
referenced it was much further back in the history.
For example, let's say that a recent commit is a revert of part of the
tree to much older state: since we didn't walk _that_ far back in the
commit history tree to list the commits necessary, git-rev-tree will
never have marked the old objects uninteresting, and we'll end up
listing them as "new".
That's ok.

The git-rev-parse command uses LF to separate each argument it
parses, so its users at least need to set IFS to LF to be able
to handle filenames with embedded SPs and TABs. Some commands,
however, can take and do expect arguments with embedded LF,
notably, "-S" (pickaxe) of diff family, so even this workaround
does not work for them.
When --sq flag to git-rev-parse is given, instead of showing one
argument per line, it outputs arguments quoted for consumption
with "eval" by the caller, to remedy this situation.
As an example, this patch converts git-whatchanged to use this
new feature.
