4709455db3 Add memory pool library
Add a memory pool library implemented using C macros. The
obj_pool_gen() macro creates a type-specific memory pool.

The memory pool library is distinguished from the existing specialized
allocators in alloc.c by using a contiguous block for all allocations.
This means that on one hand, long-lived pointers have to be written as
offsets, since the base address changes as the pool grows, but on the
other hand, the entire pool can be easily written to the file system.
This could allow the memory pool to persist between runs of an
application.

For the svn importer, such a facility is useful because each svn
revision can copy trees and files from any previous revision.  The
relevant information for all revisions has to persist somehow to
support incremental runs.

[rr: minor cleanups]
[jn: added tests; removed file system backing for now]

The resulting vcs-svn/lib.a does not contain any code, nor is
it built during a normal build.  This is just scaffolding for

ed36854651 fetch: allow command line --tags to override config
Originally, if remote.<name>.tagopt was set, the --tags and option would
have no effect when given to git fetch. So if
tagopt="--no-tags"

	git fetch --tags

would not actually fetch tags.

This patch changes this behavior to only follow what is written in the
config if there is no option passed by the command line.

2d6ca6ef55 git-rebase--interactive.sh: rework skip_unnecessary_picks
Commit cd035b1c introduced the exec command to interactive rebase.  In
doing so, it modified the way that skip_unnecessary_picks iterates through
the list of rebase commands so that it avoided collapsing multiple spaces
into a single space.  This is necessary for example if the argument to the
exec command contains a path with multiple spaces in it.

The way it did this was by reading each line of rebase commands into a
single variable, and then breaking the individual components out using
echo, sed, and cut.  It used the individual broken-out components for
decision making, and was still able to write the original line to the
output file from the variable it had saved it in.  But, since we only
really need to look at anything other than the first element of the line
when a 'pick' command is encountered, and even that is only necessary when
we are still searching for "unnecessary" picks, and since newer rebase
commands like 'exec' may not even require a sha1 field, let's make our read
statement parse its input into a "command" variable, and a "rest" variable,
and then only break out the sha1 from $rest, and call git-rev-parse, when
absolutely necessary.

I think this future proofs this subroutine, avoids calling git-rev-parse
unnecessarily, and possibly with bogus arguments, and still accomplishes
the goal of not mangling the $rest of the rebase command.

44c48a909a diff --follow: do call diffcore_std() as necessary
Usually, diff frontends populate the output queue with filepairs without
any rename information and call diffcore_std() to sort the renames out.
When --follow is in effect, however, diff-tree family of frontend has a
hack that looks like this:

    diff-tree frontend
    -> diff_tree_sha1()
       . populate diff_queued_diff
       . if --follow is in effect and there is only one change that
         creates the target path, then
       -> try_to_follow_renames()
	  -> diff_tree_sha1() with no pathspec but with -C
	  -> diffcore_std() to find renames
	  . if rename is found, tweak diff_queued_diff and put a
	    single filepair that records the found rename there
    -> diffcore_std()
       . tweak elements on diff_queued_diff by
       - rename detection
       - path ordering
       - pickaxe filtering

We need to skip parts of the second call to diffcore_std() that is related
to rename detection, and do so only when try_to_follow_renames() did find
a rename.  Earlier 1da6175 (Make diffcore_std only can run once before a
diff_flush, 2010-05-06) tried to deal with this issue incorrectly; it
unconditionally disabled any second call to diffcore_std().

This hopefully fixes the breakage.

39f75d26e2 diff --follow: do not waste cycles while recursing
The "--follow" logic is called from diff_tree_sha1() function, but the
input trees to diff_tree_sha1() are not necessarily the top-level trees
(compare_tree_entry() calls it while it recursively descends into
subtrees).  When a newly created path lives in somewhere deep in the
source hierarchy, e.g. "platform/", but the rename source is in a totally
different place in the destination hierarchy, e.g. "lang-api/src/com/...",
running "try_to_find_renames()" while base is set to "platform/" is a
wasted call.

We only need to run the rename following at the very top level.

fa57f717cd perl/Makefile: Unset INSTALL_BASE when making perl.mak
PREFIX and INSTALL_BASE are mutually exclusive. If both are supplied
by INSTALL_BASE being set in PERL_MM_OPT ExtUtils::MakeMaker will
produce an error:

    $ echo $PERL_MM_OPT
    INSTALL_BASE=/home/avar/perl5
    $ make -C perl  PERL_PATH='/usr/bin/perl' prefix='/home/avar' perl.mak
    make: Entering directory `/home/avar/g/git/perl'
    /usr/bin/perl Makefile.PL PREFIX='/home/avar'
    Only one of PREFIX or INSTALL_BASE can be given.  Not both.
    make: *** [perl.mak] Error 255
    make: Leaving directory `/home/avar/g/git/perl'

Change the perl Makefile to work around this by explicitly unsetting
INSTALL_BASE.

INSTALL_BASE is set in PERL_MM_OPT by e.g. the popular local::lib
package, from its documentation:

    eval $(perl -I$HOME/perl5/lib/perl5 -Mlocal::lib 2>/dev/null)

Many other environments might also have set PERL_MM_OPT before
building Git. This change enables us to build in these environments.

cf65426de6 pull --rebase: Avoid spurious conflicts and reapplying unnecessary patches
Prior to c85c792 (pull --rebase: be cleverer with rebased upstream
branches, 2008-01-26), pull --rebase would run

  git rebase $merge_head

which resulted in a call to

  git format-patch ... --ignore-if-in-upstream $merge_head..$cur_branch

This resulted in patches from $merge_head..$cur_branch being applied, as
long as they did not already exist in $cur_branch..$merge_head.

Unfortunately, when upstream is rebased, $merge_head..$cur_branch also
refers to "old" commits that have already been rebased upstream, meaning
that many patches that were already fixed upstream would be reapplied.
This could result in many spurious conflicts, as well as reintroduce
patches that were intentionally dropped upstream.

So the algorithm was changed in c85c792 (pull --rebase: be cleverer with
rebased upstream branches, 2008-01-26) and d44e712 (pull: support rebased
upstream + fetch + pull --rebase, 2009-07-19).  Defining $old_remote_ref to
be the most recent entry in the reflog for @{upstream} that is an ancestor
of $cur_branch, pull --rebase was changed to run

  git rebase --onto $merge_head $old_remote_ref

which results in a call to

  git format-patch ... --ignore-if-in-upstream $old_remote_ref..$cur_branch

The whole point of this change was to reduce the number of commits being
reapplied, by avoiding commits that upstream already has or had.

In the rebased upstream case, this change achieved that purpose.  It is
worth noting, though, that since $old_remote_ref is always an ancestor of
$cur_branch (by its definition), format-patch will not know what upstream
is and thus will not be able to determine if any patches are already
upstream; they will all be reapplied.

In the non-rebased upstream case, this new form is usually the same as the
original code but in some cases $old_remote_ref can be an ancestor of

   $(git merge-base $merge_head $cur_branch)

meaning that instead of avoiding reapplying commits that upstream already
has, it actually includes more such commits.  Combined with the fact that
format-patch can no longer detect commits that are already upstream (since
it is no longer told what upstream is), results in lots of confusion for
users (e.g. "git is giving me lots of conflicts in stuff I didn't even
change since my last push.")

Cases where additional commits could be reapplied include forking from a
commit other than the tracking branch, or amending/rebasing after pushing.
Cases where the inability to detect upstreamed commits cause problems
include independent discovery of a fix and having your patches get
upstreamed by some alternative route (e.g. pulling your changes to a third
machine, pushing from there, and then going back to your original machine
and trying to pull --rebase).

Fix the non-rebased upstream case by ignoring $old_remote_ref whenever it
is contained in $(git merge-base $merge_head $cur_branch).  This should
have no affect on the rebased upstream case.

dump_marks_helper() has a bug when dumping marks larger than 2^20-1,
i.e., when the sparse array has more than two levels.  The bug was
that the 'base' counter was being shifted by 20 bits at level 3, and
then again by 10 bits at level 2, rather than a total shift of 20 bits
in this argument to the recursive call:

  (base + k) << m->shift

There are two ways to fix this correctly, the elegant:

  (base + k) << 10

and the one I chose due to edit distance:

  base + (k << m->shift)

e6c111b4c0 unpack_trees: group error messages by type
When an error is encountered, it calls add_rejected_file() which either
- directly displays the error message and stops if in plumbing mode
  (i.e. if show_all_errors is not initialized at 1)
- or stores it so that it will be displayed at the end with display_error_msgs(),

Storing the files by error type permits to have a list of files for
which there is the same error instead of having a serie of almost
identical errors.

As each bind_overlap error combines a file and an old file, a list cannot be
done, therefore, theses errors are not stored but directly displayed.

Instead, we consider them as two different cases, with unparameterized

cd035b1cef rebase -i: add exec command to launch a shell command
The typical usage pattern would be to run a test (or simply a compilation
command) at given points in history.

The shell command is ran (from the worktree root), and the rebase is
stopped when the command fails, to give the user an opportunity to fix
the problem before continuing with "git rebase --continue".

This needs a little rework of skip_unnecessary_picks, which wasn't robust
enough to deal with lines like

  exec >"file    name with many spaces"

in the todolist. The new version extracts command, sha1 and rest from
each line, but outputs the line itself verbatim to avoid changing the
whitespace layout.

--missing-ok”.

Even in the cherry-pick foo..bar code path, such an error is the
end of the line.  But maybe some day an interactive porcelain will
want to link to libgit, making this matter.

1ce584b058 read-tree: stop leaking tree objects
The underlying problem is that the fill_tree_descriptor()
API is easy to misuse, and this patch does not fix that.

d8faea9d18 diff: strip extra "/" when stripping prefix
There are two ways a user might want to use "diff --relative":

  1. For a file in a directory, like "subdir/file", the user
     can use "--relative=subdir/" to strip the directory.

  2. To strip part of a filename, like "foo-10", they can
     use "--relative=foo-".

We currently handle both of those situations. However, if the user passes
"--relative=subdir" (without the trailing slash), we produce inconsistent
results. For the unified diff format, we collapse the double-slash of
"a//file" correctly into "a/file". But for other formats (raw, stat,
name-status), we end up with "/file".

We can do what the user means here and strip the extra "/" (and only a
slash).  We are not hurting any existing users of (2) above with this
behavior change because the existing output for this case was nonsensical.

ad9ac6db5d split_cmdline: Allow caller to access error string
This allows the caller to add its own error message to that returned
by split_cmdline.  Thus error output following a failed split_cmdline
can be of the form

fatal: Bad alias.test string: cmdline ends with \

rather than

error: cmdline ends with \
fatal: Bad alias.test string

ff38d1a995 grep: run setup_git_directory_gently() sooner
git grep already runs a repository search unconditionally,
even when the --no-index option is supplied; running such a
search earlier is not very risky.

Just like with shortlog, without this change, the
“[pager] grep” configuration is not respected at all.

773b69bf71 shortlog: run setup_git_directory_gently() sooner
shortlog already runs a repository search unconditionally;
running such a search earlier is not very risky.

Without this change, the “[pager] shortlog” configuration
is not respected at all: “git shortlog” unconditionally paginates.

The tests are a bit slow.  Running the full battery like this
for all built-in commands would be counterproductive; the intent is
rather to test shortlog as a representative example command using
..._gently().

ee38dfb89e git wrapper: allow setup_git_directory_gently() be called earlier
In the spirit of v1.4.2-rc3~34^2^2 (Call setup_git_directory() much
earlier, 2006-07-28), let run_builtin() take care of searching for a
repository for built-ins that want to make use of one if present.

So now you can mark your command with RUN_SETUP_GENTLY and use

	nongit = !startup_info->have_repository;

in place of

	prefix = setup_git_directory_gently(&nongit);

and everything will be the same, except the repository is
discovered a little sooner.

As v1.7.2~16^2 (2010-07-14) explains, this should allow more commands
to robustly use features like "git --paginate" that look at local
configuration before the command is actually run.

This patch sets up the infrastructure.  Later patches will teach
particular commands to use it.

a60645f9c5 setup: remember whether repository was found
As v1.7.2~16^2 (git --paginate: paginate external commands
again, 2010-07-14) explains, builtins (like git config) that
do not use RUN_SETUP are not finding GIT_DIR set correctly when
it is time to launch the pager from run_builtin().  If they
were to search for a repository sooner, then the outcome of such
early repository accesses would be more predictable and reliable.

The cmd_*() functions learn whether a repository was found through the
*nongit_ok return value from setup_git_directory_gently().  If
run_builtin() is to take care of the repository search itself, that
datum needs to be retrievable from somewhere else.  Use the
startup_info struct for this.

As a bonus, this information becomes available to functions such as
git_config() which might want to avoid trying to access a repository
when none is present.

e37c1329fa git wrapper: introduce startup_info struct
The startup_info struct will collect information managed by the git
setup code, such as the prefix for relative paths passed on the
command line (i.e., path to the starting cwd from the toplevel of
the work tree) and whether a git repository has been found.

In other words, startup_info is intended to be a collection of global
variables with results that were previously returned from setup
functions.  This state is global anyway (since the cwd is), even
if it is not currently tracked that way.  Letting these values persist
means there is more flexibility in deciding when to run setup.

For now, the struct is empty.
