70baf5d41a pack-objects: fix early eviction for max depth delta objects
The 'depth' variable doesn't reflect the actual maximum depth used
when other objects already depend on the current one.

ed4a9031ea pack-objects: allow for early delta deflating
When the delta data is cached in memory until it is written to a pack
file on disk, it is best to compress it right away in find_deltas() for
the following reasons:

  - we have to compress that data anyway;

  - this allows for caching more deltas with the same cache size limit;

  - compression is potentially threaded.

This last point is especially relevant for SMP run time.  For example,
repacking the Linux repo on a quad core processor using 4 threads with
all default settings produce the following results before this change:

	real    2m27.929s
	user    4m36.492s
	sys     0m3.091s

And with this change applied:

	real    2m13.787s
	user    4m37.486s
	sys     0m3.159s

So the actual execution time stayed more or less the same but the
wall clock time is shorter.

This is however not a good thing to do when generating a pack for
network transmission.  In that case, the network is most likely to
throttle the data throughput, so it is best to make find_deltas()
faster in order to start writing data ASAP since we can afford
spending more time between writes to compress the data
at that point.

Most users should be using git-gc instead of directly
calling prune. For those who really do want more information
on pruning, let's point them at git-fsck, which goes into
slightly more detail on reachability.

And since we're pointing users there, let's make sure
reflogs are mentioned in git-fsck(1).

59b0c24daa git-svn: detect and fail gracefully when dcommitting to a void
The command

  git svn clone (URL of an empty SVN repo here)

works, creates an empty git repository. I can perform the initial
commit there, but then, "git svn dcommit" says :

Use of uninitialized value in concatenation (.) or string at .../git-svn line 414.
Committing to  ...
Unable to determine upstream SVN information from HEAD history

I guess a correct management of the initial commit in git-svn would be
hard to implement, but at least, the error message can be improved.
First step is something like the patch below, and better would be for
"git svn clone" to warn that it won't be able to do much with the
cloned repo.

861f00e349 fix reflog approxidate parsing bug
In get_sha1_basic, we parse a string like

  HEAD@{10 seconds ago}:path/to/file

into its constituent ref, reflog date, and path components.
We never actually munge the string itself, but instead keep
offsets into the string with their associated lengths.

When we call approxidate on the contents inside braces,
however, we pass just a string without a length. This means
that approxidate could sometimes look past the closing brace
and (erroneously) interpret the rest of the string as part
of the date.

1ce89cc4bb remote: create fetch config lines with '+'
Since git-remote always uses remote tracking branches, it
should be safe to always force updates of those branches.
I.e., we should generate

  fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/$remote/*

instead of

  fetch = refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/$remote/*

This was the behavior of the perl version, which seems to
have been lost in the C rewrite.

f8aae12034 push: allow unqualified dest refspecs to DWIM
Previously, a push like:

  git push remote src:dst

would go through the following steps:

  1. check for an unambiguous 'dst' on the remote; if it
     exists, then push to that ref
  2. otherwise, check if 'dst' begins with 'refs/'; if it
     does, create a new ref
  3. otherwise, complain because we don't know where in the
     refs hierarchy to put 'dst'

However, in some cases, we can guess about the ref type of
'dst' based on the ref type of 'src'. Specifically, before
complaining we now check:

  2.5. if 'src' resolves to a ref starting with refs/heads
       or refs/tags, then prepend that to 'dst'

So now this creates a new branch on the remote, whereas it
previously failed with an error message:

  git push master:newbranch

Note that, by design, we limit this DWIM behavior only to
source refs which resolve exactly (including symrefs which
resolve to existing refs). We still complain on a partial
destination refspec if the source is a raw sha1, or a ref
expression such as 'master~10'.

we don't even see this ambiguity.

The test happened to pass because we were simply looking for

34b5cd1fe9 Don't force imap.host to be set when imap.tunnel is set
The documentation for git-imap-send suggests a tunnel setting such as

  Tunnel = "ssh -q user@server.com /usr/bin/imapd ./Maildir 2> /dev/null"

which works wonderfully and doesn't require a username, password or port
setting.

However, git-imap-send currently requires that the imap.host variable be
set in the config even when it was unused.  This patch changes imap-send
to only require that the imap.host setting is set if imap.tunnel is not
set.  Otherwise, server.host is set to "tunnel" for reporting purposes.
