The sha1write function returns an int, but it will always be
"0". The failure-prone parts of the function happen in the
"flush" callback, which cannot pass an error back to us. So
we just end up calling die() during the flush.
Let's just drop the return value altogether, as it only
confuses callers into thinking that it might be useful.
Only one call site actually checked the return value. We can
drop that check, since it just led to a die() anyway.

git log did not correctly handle decorations when a tag object referenced
another tag object that was no longer a ref, such as when the second tag was
deleted. The commit would not be decorated correctly because parse_object had
not been called on the second tag and therefore its tagged field had not been
filled in, resulting in none of the tags being associated with the relevant
commit.
Call parse_object to fill in this field if it is absent so that the chain of
tags can be dereferenced and the commit can be properly decorated. Include
tests as well to prevent future regressions.

The -O flag really shouldn't silently fail to do anything when given
a path that it can't read from.
However, it should be able to read from un-mmappable files, such as:
* pipes/fifos
* /dev/null: It's a character device (at least on Linux)
* ANY empty file:
Quoting Linux mmap(2), "SUSv3 specifies that mmap() should fail if
length is 0. However, in kernels before 2.6.12, mmap() succeeded in
this case: no mapping was created and the call returned addr. Since
kernel 2.6.12, mmap() fails with the error EINVAL for this case."
We especially want "-O/dev/null" to work, since we will be documenting
it as the way to cancel "diff.orderfile" when we add that.
(Note: "-O/dev/null" did have the right effect, since the existing error
handling essentially worked out to "silently ignore the orderfile". But
this was probably more coincidence than anything else.)
So, lets toss all of that logic to get the file mmapped and just use
strbuf_read_file() instead, which gives us decent error handling
practically for free.

On broken systems where RLIMIT_NOFILE is visible by the compliers
but underlying getrlimit() system call does not behave, we used to
simply die() when we are trying to decide how many file descriptors
to allocate for keeping packfiles open. Instead, allow the fallback
codepath to take over when we get such a failure from getrlimit().
The same issue exists with _SC_OPEN_MAX and sysconf(); restructure
the code in a similar way to prepare for a broken sysconf() as well.

The BFG is a tool specifically designed for the task of removing
unwanted data from Git repository history - a common use-case for which
git-filter-branch has been the traditional workhorse.
It's beneficial to let users know that filter-branch has an alternative
here:
* speed : The BFG is 10-50x faster
http://rtyley.github.io/bfg-repo-cleaner/#speed
* complexity of configuration : filter-branch is a very flexible tool,
but demands very careful usage in order to get the desired results
http://rtyley.github.io/bfg-repo-cleaner/#examples
Obviously, filter-branch has it's advantages too - it permits very
complex rewrites, and doesn't require a JVM - but for the common
use-case of deleting unwanted data, it's helpful to users to be aware
that an alternative exists.
The BFG was released under the GPL in February 2013, and has since seen
widespread production use (The Guardian, RedHat, Google, UK Government
Digital Service), been tested against large repos (~300K commits, ~5GB
packfiles) and received significant positive feedback from users:

Some buffers created with PATH_MAX length are not checked when being
written, and can overflow if PATH_MAX is not big enough to hold the
path.
Replace those buffers by strbufs so that their size is automatically
grown if necessary. They are created as static local variables to avoid
reallocating memory on each call. Note that prefix_filename() returns
this static buffer so each callers should copy or use the string
immediately (this is currently true).

After 1190a1a (pack-objects: name pack files after trailer hash,
2013-12-05), the SHA-1 used to determine the filename is calculated
differently. Update the documentation to not guarantee anything more
than that the SHA-1 depends on the pack content somehow.
Hopefully this will discourage readers from depending on the old or
the new calculation.
