eafc2dd59f Git.pm: call tempfile from File::Temp as a regular function
We call File::Temp's "tempfile" function as a class method, but it was
never designed to be called this way. Older versions seemed to
tolerate it, but as of File::Temp 0.23, it blows up like this:

  $ git svn fetch
  'tempfile' can't be called as a method at .../Git.pm line 1117.

Fix it by calling it as a regular function, just inside the File::Temp
namespace.

Closing (not redirecting to /dev/null) the standard error stream is
not a very smart thing to do.  Later open may return file

  ==352==    by 0x4E7B14: die_builtin (usage.c:38)

The actual complaint appears to be a bug in the underlying
implementation.  What's interesting here is that it is apparently
_triggered_ by closing stderr, which results in (from strace)

  write(2, "fatal: Needed a single revision\n", 32) = -1 EBADF (Bad file descriptor)
  write(2, "\0", 1) = -1 EBADF (Bad file descriptor)

Closing stderr is a bad idea anyway: there is a very real chance that
we print fatal error messages to some other file that just happens to
be opened on the now-free FD 2.  So let's not do that.

As pointed out by Eric Wong (thanks), the initial close needs to go:
die() would again write nowhere if we close STDERR beforehand.

712c6adaee Git.pm: fix cat_blob crashes on large files
Read and write each 1024 byte buffer, rather than trying to buffer
the entire content of the file.  We are only copying the contents to
a file descriptor and do not use it ourselves.

Previous code would crash on all files > 2 Gib, when the offset
variable became negative (perhaps below the level of perl),
resulting in a crash.  On a 32 bit system, or a system with low
memory it might crash before reaching 2 GiB due to memory
exhaustion.

This code may leave a partial file behind in case of failure, where
the old code would leave a completely empty file.  Neither version
verifies the correctness of the content.  Calling code must take
care of verification and cleanup.

75f7b5dfc4 perl/Git.pm: fix get_tz_offset to properly handle DST boundary cases
When passed a local time that was on the boundary of a DST change,
get_tz_offset returned a GMT offset that was incorrect (off by one
hour).  This is because the time was converted to GMT and then back to
a time stamp via timelocal() which cannot disambiguate boundary cases
as noted in its documentation.

Modify this algorithm, using an approach suggested in

  http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/213871

to first convert the timestamp in question to two broken down forms
with localtime() and gmtime(), and then compute what timestamps
these two broken down forms would represent in GMT (i.e. a timezone
that does not have DST issues) by applying timegm() on them.  The
difference between the resulting timestamps is the timezone offset.

This avoids the ambigious conversion and allows a correct time to be
returned on every occassion.

48d9e6ae4b perl: command_bidi_pipe() method should set-up git environmens
When command_input_pipe and command_output_pipe are used as a
method of a Git::repository instance, they eventually call into
_cmd_exec method that sets up the execution environment such as
GIT_DIR, GIT_WORK_TREE environment variables and the current
working directory in the child process that interacts with the
repository.

command_bidi_pipe however didn't expect to be called as such, and
lacked all these set-up.  Because of this, a program that did this
did not work as expected:

    my $repo = Git->repository(Directory => '/some/where/else');
    my ($pid, $in, $out, $ctx) =
    $repo->command_bidi_pipe(qw(hash-object -w --stdin-paths));

This patch refactors the _cmd_exec into _setup_git_cmd_env that
sets up the execution environment, and makes _cmd_exec and
command_bidi_pipe to use it.

Note that unlike _cmd_exec that execv's a git command as an
external process, command_bidi_pipe is called from the main line
of control, and the execution environment needs to be restored
after open2() does its magic.

d48b284183 perl: bump the required Perl version to 5.8 from 5.6.[21]
Formalize our dependency on perl 5.8, bumped from 5.6.[12]. We already
used the three-arg form of open() which was introduced in 5.6.1, but
t/t9700/test.pl explicitly depended on 5.6.2.

However git-add--interactive.pl has been failing on the 5.6 line since
it was introduced in v1.5.0-rc0~12^2~2 back in 2006 due to this open
syntax:

    sub run_cmd_pipe {
           my $fh = undef;
           open($fh, '-|', @_) or die;
           return <$fh>;
    }

Which when executed dies on "Can't use an undefined value as
filehandle reference". Several of our tests also fail on 5.6 (even
more when compiled with NO_PERL_MAKEMAKER=1):

    t2016-checkout-patch.sh
    t3904-stash-patch.sh
    t3701-add-interactive.sh
    t7105-reset-patch.sh
    t7501-commit.sh
    t9700-perl-git.sh

Our code is bitrotting on 5.6 with no-one interested in fixing it, and
pinning us to such an ancient release of Perl is keeping us from using
useful features introduced in the 5.8 release.

The 5.6 series is now over 10 years old, and the 5.6.2 maintenance
release almost 7. 5.8 on the other hand is more than 8 years old.

All the modern Unix-like operating systems have now upgraded to it or
a later version, and 5.8 packages are available for old IRIX, AIX
Solaris and Tru64 systems.

402e139c7e git-svn: support fetch with autocrlf on
Before commit d3c9634e, performing a "git svn rebase" that fetched a
change containing CRLFs corrupted the git-svn meta-data. This was
worked around in d3c9634e by setting core.autocrlf to "false" in the
per-repo config when initing the clone. However, if the config
variable was later changed, the corruption would still occur.

This patch tries to fix it while allowing core.autocrlf to be
enabled, by disabling filters when when hashing.

git-svn is currently the only call-site for hash_and_insert_object
(apart from the test-suite), so changing it should be safe.

This is needed to be able to fix git-svn on msys as msysperl generates
paths with UNIX-style paths (/tmp/xxx) while the git tools expect natvie
path format (c:/..). The repository dir is stored in native format so by

108c2aaf79 Git.pm: localise $? in command_close_bidi_pipe()
Git::DESTROY calls _close_cat_blob and _close_hash_and_insert_object,
which in turn call command_close_bidi_pipe, which calls waitpid, which
alters $?. If this happens during global destruction, it may alter the
program's exit status unexpectedly. Making $? local to the function
solves the problem.

(The problem was discovered due to a failure of test #8 in
t9106-git-svn-commit-diff-clobber.sh.)

31a92f6aa4 Git.pm: Add remote_refs() git-ls-remote frontend
This patch also converts the good ole' git-remote.perl to use it.
It is otherwise used in the repo.or.cz machinery and I guess other
scripts might find it useful too.

Unfortunately,

	git-ls-remote --heads .

is subtly different from

	git-ls-remote . refs/heads/

(since the second matches anywhere in the string, not just at the
beginning) so we have to provide interface for both.

32d8050a86 Git.pm: fix return value of config method
If config is called in array context, it is supposed to return all
values set for the given option key.  This works for all cases except
if there is no value set at all.  In that case, it wrongly returns
(undef) instead of ().  This fixes the return statement so that it
returns undef in scalar context but an empty array in array context.

58c8dd2173 Git.pm: fix documentation of hash_object
The documentation of hash_object incorrectly states that it accepts a
file handle -- in fact it doesn't, and there is even a TODO comment
for this.  This fixes the documentation.

d683a0e00c Git::cat_blob: allow using an empty blob to fix git-svn breakage
Recent "git-svn optimization" series introduced Git::cat_blob() subroutine
whose interface was broken in that it returned the size of the blob but
signalled an error by returning 0.  You can never use an empty blob with
such an interface.

This fixes the interface to return a negative value to signal an error.

7182530d8c Git.pm: Add hash_and_insert_object and cat_blob
These functions are more efficient ways of executing `git hash-object -w` and
`git cat-file blob` when you are dealing with many files/objects.
