f2dc849e9c Add 'git fast-export', the sister of 'git fast-import'
This program dumps (parts of) a git repository in the format that
fast-import understands.

For clarity's sake, it does not use the 'inline' method of specifying
blobs in the commits, but builds the blobs before building the commits.

Since signed tags' signatures will not necessarily be valid (think
transformations after the export, or excluding revisions, changing
the history), there are 4 modes to handle them: abort (default),
ignore, warn and strip.  The latter just turns the tags into
unsigned ones.

These changes make the automatic prefix highlighting work with the "Add
untracked" subcommand in git-add--interactive by explicitly handling
arrays, hashes and strings internally (previously only arrays and hashes
were handled).

In addition, prefixes which have special meaning for list_and_choose
(things like "*" for "all" and "-" for "deselect) are explicitly
excluded (highlighting these prefixes would be misleading).

When we consider if a path has been totally rewritten, we did not
touch changes from symlinks to files or vice versa.  But a change
that modifies even the type of a blob surely should count as a
complete rewrite.

2d87979215 git-svn: add a show-externals command.
show-externals can be used by scripts to provide svn:externals-like
functionality.  For example, a script can list all of the externals and then
use check out the listed URLs at the appropriate paths, similar to what the svn
client does.  Said script (or perhaps git-svn itself, in the future) could
simply invoke svn export on the paths, or it could go one further, using
git-svn clone and even git-submodule together to better integrate externals
checkouts.

The implementation is shamelessly copied from show-ignores.  A more general
command to list user-specified properties is probably a better idea.

Well, after thinking about this a bit, I think there's a solution that may
work well with the current thing too: instead of looping just *once* over
the list of rename pairs, loop twice - and simply refuse to do copies on
the first loop.

This trivial patch does that, and turns Kumar's test-case into a perfect
rename list.

It's not pretty, it's not smart, but it seems to work. There's something
to be said for keeping it simple and stupid.

And it should not be nearly as expensive as it may _look_. Yes, the loop
is "(i = 0; i < num_create * num_src; i++)", but the important part is
that the whole array is sorted by rename score, and we have a

	if (mx[i].score < minimum_score)
		break;

in it, so uthe loop actually would tend to terminate rather quickly.

Anyway, Kumar, the thing to take away from this is:

 - git really doesn't even *care* about the whole "rename detection"
   internally, and any commits you have done with renames are totally
   independent of the heuristics we then use to *show* the renames.

 - the rename detection really is for just two reasons: (a) keep humans
   happy, and keep the diffs small and (b) help automatic merging across
   renames. So getting renames right is certainly good, but it's more of a
   "politeness" issue than a "correctness" issue, although the merge
   portion of it does matter a lot sometimes.

 - the important thing here is that you can commit your changes and not
   worry about them being somehow "corrupted" by lack of rename detection,
   even if you commit them with a version of git that doesn't do rename
   detection the way you expected it. The rename detection is an
   "after-the-fact" thing, not something that actually gets saved in the
   repository, which is why we can change the heuristics _after_ seeing
   examples, and the examples magically correct themselves!

 - try out the two patches I've posted, and see if they work for you. They
   pass the test-suite, and the output for your example commit looks sane,
   but hey, if you have other test-cases, try them out.

Here's Kumar's pretty diffstat with both my patches:

32d75d29f9 Fix a pathological case in git detecting proper renames
Kumar Gala had a case in the u-boot archive with multiple renames of files
with identical contents, and git would turn those into multiple "copy"
operations of one of the sources, and just deleting the other sources.

This patch makes the git exact rename detection prefer to spread out the
renames over the multiple sources, rather than do multiple copies of one
source.

NOTE! The changes are a bit larger than required, because I also renamed
the variables named "one" and "two" to "target" and "source" respectively.
That makes the logic easier to follow, especially as the "one" was
illogically the target and not the soruce, for purely historical reasons
(this piece of code used to traverse over sources and targets in the wrong
order, and when we fixed that, we didn't fix the names back then. So I
fixed them now).

The important part of this change is just the trivial score calculations
for when files have identical contents:

	/* Give higher scores to sources that haven't been used already */
	score = !source->rename_used;
	score += basename_same(source, target);

and when we have multiple choices we'll now pick the choice that gets the
best rename score, rather than only looking at whether the basename
matched.

It's worth noting a few gotchas:

 - this scoring is currently only done for the "exact match" case.

   In particular, in Kumar's example, even after this patch, the inexact
   match case is still done as a copy+delete rather than as two renames:

	 delete mode 100644 board/cds/mpc8555cds/u-boot.lds
	 copy board/{cds => freescale}/mpc8541cds/u-boot.lds (97%)
	 rename board/{cds/mpc8541cds => freescale/mpc8555cds}/u-boot.lds (97%)

   because apparently the "cds/mpc8541cds/u-boot.lds" copy looked
   a bit more similar to both end results. That said, I *suspect* we just
   have the exact same issue there - the similarity analysis just gave
   identical (or at least very _close_ to identical) similarity points,
   and we do not have any logic to prefer multiple renames over a
   copy/delete there.

   That is a separate patch.

 - When you have identical contents and identical basenames, the actual
   entry that is chosen is still picked fairly "at random" for the first
   one (but the subsequent ones will prefer entries that haven't already
   been used).

   It's not actually really random, in that it actually depends on the
   relative alphabetical order of the files (which in turn will have
   impacted the order that the entries got hashed!), so it gives
   consistent results that can be explained. But I wanted to point it out
   as an issue for when anybody actually does cross-renames.

   In Kumar's case the choice is the right one (and for a single normal
   directory rename it should always be, since the relative alphabetical
   sorting of the files will be identical), and we now get:

	 rename board/{cds => freescale}/mpc8541cds/init.S (100%)
	 rename board/{cds => freescale}/mpc8548cds/init.S (100%)

   which is the "expected" answer. However, it might still be better to
   change the pedantic "exact same basename" on/off choice into a more
   graduated "how similar are the pathnames" scoring situation, in order
   to be more likely to get the exact rename choice that people *expect*
   to see, rather than other alternatives that may *technically* be
   equally good, but are surprising to a human.

It's also unclear whether we should consider "basenames are equal" or
"have already used this as a source" to be more important. This gives them
equal weight, but I suspect we might want to just multiple the "basenames
are equal" weight by two, or something, to prefer equal basenames even if
that causes a copy/delete pair. I dunno.

Anyway, what I'm just saying in a really long-winded manner is that I
think this is right as-is, but it's not the complete solution, and it may
want some further tweaking in the future.

f01913e419 Add "--expire <time>" option to 'git prune'
Earlier, 'git prune' would prune all loose unreachable objects.
This could be quite dangerous, as the objects could be used in
an ongoing operation.

This patch adds a mode to expire only loose, unreachable objects
which are older than a certain time.  For example, by

	git prune --expire 14.days

you can prune only those objects which are loose, unreachable
and older than 14 days (and thus probably outdated).

The implementation uses st.st_mtime rather than st.st_ctime,
because it can be tested better, using 'touch -d <time>' (and
omitting the test when the platform does not support that
command line switch).

Repository version check is only performed when
setup_git_directory() is called. This makes sure
setup_git_directory_gently() does the check too.

67d232426b cvsimport: fix usage of cvsimport.module
There were two problems:

  1. We only look at the config variable if there is no module
     given on the command line. We checked this by comparing
     @ARGV == 0. However, at the time of the comparison, we
     have not yet parsed the dashed options, meaning that
     "git cvsimport" would read the variable but "git
     cvsimport -a" would not. This is fixed by simply moving
     the check after the call to getopt.

  2. If the config variable did not exist, we were adding an
     empty string to @ARGV. The rest of the script, rather
     than barfing for insufficient input, would then try to
     import the module '', leading to rather confusing error
     messages. Based on patch from Emanuele Giaquinta.

28391a80a9 receive-pack: allow deletion of corrupt refs
Occasionally, in some setups (*cough* forks on repo.or.cz *cough*) some
refs go stale, e.g. when the forkee rebased and lost some objects needed
by the fork.  The quick & dirty way to deal with those refs is to delete
them and push them again.

However, git-push first would first fetch the current commit name for the
ref, would receive a null sha1 since the ref does not point to a valid
object, then tell receive-pack that it should delete the ref with this
commit name.  delete_ref() would be subsequently be called, and check that
resolve_ref() (which does _not_ check for validity of the object) returns
the same commit name.  Which would fail.

The proper fix is to avoid corrupting repositories, but in the meantime
this is a good fix in any case.

Incidentally, some instances of "cd .." in the test cases were fixed, so
that subsequent test cases run in t/trash/ irrespective of the outcome of
the previous test cases.

fdd7d48d6a t7003-filter-branch: Fix test of a failing --msg-filter.
The test passed for the wrong reason: If the script given to --msg-filter
fails, it is expected that git-filter-branch aborts. But the test forgot
to tell the branch name to rewrite, and so git-filter-branch failed due to
incorrect usage.

0d8135891e Mention that git-rm can be an appropriate resolution as well as git-add.
Especially when using git-cherry-pick, removing files that are unmerged can be
a logical action. This patch merely changes the informative text to be less
confusing.
