... to store parts of the path, if possible. This allows us to avoid
writing extended headers in certain cases (long pathes can only be
split at '/' chars).
Also adds a file to the test repo with a 100 chars long directory name.
Even old versions of tar that don't understand POSIX extended headers
should be able to handle this testcase.
Btw.: The longest path in the kernel tree currently has 70 chars.
Together with a 30 chars long prefix this would already cross the
field limit of 100 chars.

... and use it initially to write global extended header records.
Improvements compared to the old write_header():
- Uses a struct ustar_header instead of hardcoded offsets.
- Takes one struct strbuf as path argument instead of a (basedir,
prefix, name) tuple.
- Not only writes the tar header, but also the contents of the
file, if any.
- Does not write directly into the ring buffer. This allows the
code to be layed out more naturally, because there is no more
ordering constraint. Before we had to first finish writing the
extended header, now we can construct the extended and normal
headers in parallel.
- The typeflag parameter has been replaced by (reasonable) magic
values. path == NULL indicates an extended header, additionally
sha1 == NULL means it is a global extended header.

This was triggered by me testing the "@@" numbering shorthand by GNU
patch, which not only showed that git-apply thought it meant the number
was duplicated (when it means that the second number is 1), but my tests
showed than when git-apply mis-understood the number, it would then not
raise an alarm about it if the patch ended early.
Now, this doesn't actually _matter_, since with a three-line context, the
only case that "x,1" will be shorthanded to "x" is when x itself is 1 (in
which case git-apply got it right), but the fact that git-apply would also
silently accept truncated patches was a missed opportunity for additional
sanity-checking.
So make git-apply refuse to look at a patch fragment that ends early.

The first was a simple typo where I put $yc instead of [yc $row].
The second was that I broke the logic for keeping up with fast
movement through the commits, e.g. when you select a commit and then
press down-arrow and let it autorepeat. That got broken when I
changed the merge diff display to use git-diff-tree --cc.

* The $origin above defaults to "origin" as usual, but the
existing "-o $origin" option can be used to override it.
I am not yet convinced if we should make "$origin" the synonym to
"refs/remotes/$origin/$name" where $name is the primary branch
name of $origin upstream, nor if so how we should decide which
upstream branch is the primary one, but that is more or less
orthogonal to what the clone does here.

Because committing back to an SVN repository from different
machines can result in different lineages, two different
repositories running git-svn can result in different commit

we just skip the git-diff-index run.

This patch makes the html docs right, makes the asciidoc docs a bit odd
but consistent with what is there already, and makes the manpages look
OK using docbook-xsl 1.68, but miss a paragraph separator when using 1.69.

-A <author_file>
Read a file with lines on the form
username = User's Full Name <email@addr.es>
and use "User's Full Name <email@addr.es>" as the GIT
With this patch, docbook-xsl v1.68 looks like
-A <author_file>
Read a file with lines on the form
username = User's Full Name <email@addr.es>
and use "User's Full Name <email@addr.es>" as the GIT author and
while docbook-xsl v1.69 becomes
-A <author_file>
Read a file with lines on the form
username = User's Full Name <email@addr.es>
and use "User's Full Name <email@addr.es>" as the GIT author and
The extra indentation is to keep the v1.69 manpage looking sane.
When a repository otherwise properly prepared is served by a
dumb HTTP server that sends "No such page" output with 200
status for human consumption to a request for a page that does
not exist, the users will get an alarming "File X corrupt" error
message. Hint that they might be dealing with such a server at
the end and suggest running fsck-objects to check if the result
is OK (the pack-fallback code does the right thing in this case
so unless a loose object file was actually corrupt the result
should check OK).

This does two things.
* A new flag --reference can be used to name a local repository
that is to be used as an alternate. This is in response to
an inquiry by James Cloos in the message on the list
<m3r74ykue7.fsf@lugabout.cloos.reno.nv.us>.
* A new flag --use-separate-remote stops contaminating local
branch namespace by upstream branch names. The upstream
branch heads are copied in .git/refs/remotes/ instead of
.git/refs/heads/ and .git/remotes/origin file is set up to
reflect this as well. It requires to have fetch/pull update
to understand .git/refs/remotes by Eric Wong to further
update the repository cloned this way.
For the former change, git-fetch-pack is taught a new flag --all
to fetch from all the remote heads. Nobody uses the git-clone-pack
with this change, so we could deprecate the command, but removal
of the command will be left to a separate round.

Currently we unpack the delta data from the pack and then unpack
the base object to apply that delta data to it. When getting an
object that is deeply deltified, we can reduce memory footprint
by unpacking the base object first and then unpacking the delta
data, because we will need to keep at most one delta data in
memory that way.
