4917d2a66e Include git-gui credits file in dist.
The Makefile for the git-gui subproject will fail to execute if run
outside of a git.git directory, such as when building from a .tar.gz
or .tar.bz2.  This is because it is looking for the credits file,
which was created but omitted from the tarball by the toplevel
Makefile.

bc6b4f52fc Add a compat/strtoumax.c for Solaris 8.
Solaris 8 was pre-c99, and they weren't willing to commit to
the strtoumax definition according to /usr/include/inttypes.h.

This adds NO_STRTOUMAX and NO_STRTOULL for ancient systems.
If NO_STRTOUMAX is defined, the routine in compat/strtoumax.c
will be used instead.  That routine passes its arguments to
strtoull unless NO_STRTOULL is defined.  If NO_STRTOULL, then
the routine uses strtoul (unsigned long).

I'm exporting gitexecdir because git-gui wants to know where
it should install git-gui and git-citool.  These belong under
gitexecdir, just like git-diff, as the git wrapper is able to

8188e73b17 Fix longstanding mismerge of ALL_CFLAGS vs BASIC_CFLAGS
The earlier commit d7b6c3c0 (Aug 15, 2006) introduced this
mismerge when most of the CFLAGS were renamed to BASIC_CFLAGS.

Not that it matters right now, since we do not compile XS
Perl extensions which wanted non GNU subset of ALL_CFLAGS for
compilation, but we should make things consistent.

76db9dec81 Merge branch 'master' into sp/gfi
git-fast-import requires use of inttypes.h, but the master branch has
added it to git-compat-util differently than git-fast-import originally
had used it.  This merge back of master to the fast-import topic is to
get (and use) inttypes.h the way master is using it.

This is a partially evil merge to remove the call to setup_ident(),
as the master branch now contains a change which makes this implicit
and therefore removed the function declaration. (commit 01754769).

1fcdd62adf Merge branch 'master' into sp/fast-import
I'm bringing master in early so that the OBJ_OFS_DELTA implementation
is available as part of the topic.  This way git-fast-import can
learn about this new slightly smaller and faster packfile format,
and can generate them directly rather than needing to have them be
repacked with git-pack-objects.

Due to the API changes in master during the period of development
of git-fast-import, a few minor tweaks to fast-import.c are needed
to produce a working merge.  I've done them here as part of the
merge to ensure bisection always works.

e194cd1e0e git-remote
It might be handy to have a single command that helps you manage
your configuration that relates to downloading from remote
repositories.  This currently does only about 20% of what I want
it to do.

	$ git remote

shows the list of 'remotes' you have defined somewhere, and

	$ git remote origin

shows the details about the named remote (in this case
"origin").  How the branches are tracked, if you have a
tracking branch that is stale, etc.

	$ git add another git://git.kernel.org/pub/...

defines the default remote.another.url and remote.another.fetch
entries just like a clone does; you can say "git fetch another"
afterwards.

For it to be useful, I think it should be enhanced to:

 - check overlaps of tracking branches and warn;

 - offer to remove stale tracking branches in one go;

 - offer ways to remove or rename remote;

 - offer ways to update an existing remote, perhaps have an
   interactive mode;

Other enhancements might be also possible, but I do not think of
anything that is absolutely necessary other than the above right
now.

c869753ebb Force core.filemode to false on Cygwin.
Many users have noticed that core.filemode doesn't appear to be
automatically set right on Cygwin when using a repository stored
on NTFS.  The issue is that Cygwin and NTFS correctly supports
the executable mode bit, and Git properly detected that, but most
native Windows applications tend to create files such that Cygwin
sees the executable bit set when it probably shouldn't be.

This is especially bad if the user's favorite editor deletes the
file then recreates it whenever they save (vs. just overwriting)
as now a file that was created with mode 0644 by checkout-index
appears to have mode 0755.

So we introduce NO_TRUSTABLE_FILEMODE, settable at compile time.
Setting this option forces core.filemode to false, even if the
detection code would have returned true.  This option should be
enabled by default on Cygwin.

30f610b7b0 Create 'git gc' to perform common maintenance operations.
Junio asked for a 'git gc' utility which users can execute on a
regular basis to perform basic repository actions such as:

 * pack-refs --prune
 * reflog expire
 * repack -a -d
 * prune
 * rerere gc

So here is a command which does exactly that.  The parameters fed
to reflog's expire subcommand can be chosen by the user by setting
configuration options in .git/config (or ~/.gitconfig), as users may
want different expiration windows for each repository but shouldn't
be bothered to remember what they are all of the time.

and implements "expire" action.

	$ git reflog expire --dry-run \
		--expire=4.weeks \

The expiration uses two timestamps: --expire and --expire-unreachable.
Entries older than expire time (defaults to 90 days), and entries older
than expire-unreachable time (defaults to 30 days) and records a commit
that has been rewound and made unreachable from the current tip of the
ref are removed from the reflog.

The parameter handling is still rough, but I think the
core logic for expiration is already sound.

5cde71d64a git-add --interactive
A script to be driven when the user says "git add --interactive"
is introduced.

When it is run, first it runs its internal 'status' command to
show the current status, and then goes into its internactive
command loop.

The command loop shows the list of subcommands available, and
gives a prompt "What now> ".  In general, when the prompt ends
with a single '>', you can pick only one of the choices given
and type return, like this:

    *** Commands ***
      1: status       2: update       3: revert       4: add untracked
      5: patch        6: diff         7: quit         8: help
    What now> 1

You also could say "s" or "sta" or "status" above as long as the
choice is unique.

The main command loop has 6 subcommands (plus help and quit).

 * 'status' shows the change between HEAD and index (i.e. what
   will be committed if you say "git commit"), and between index
   and working tree files (i.e. what you could stage further
   before "git commit" using "git-add") for each path.  A sample
   output looks like this:

              staged     unstaged path
     1:       binary      nothing foo.png
     2:     +403/-35        +1/-1 git-add--interactive.perl

   It shows that foo.png has differences from HEAD (but that is
   binary so line count cannot be shown) and there is no
   difference between indexed copy and the working tree
   version (if the working tree version were also different,
   'binary' would have been shown in place of 'nothing').  The
   other file, git-add--interactive.perl, has 403 lines added
   and 35 lines deleted if you commit what is in the index, but
   working tree file has further modifications (one addition and
   one deletion).

 * 'update' shows the status information and gives prompt
   "Update>>".  When the prompt ends with double '>>', you can
   make more than one selection, concatenated with whitespace or
   comma.  Also you can say ranges.  E.g. "2-5 7,9" to choose
   2,3,4,5,7,9 from the list.  You can say '*' to choose
   everything.

   What you chose are then highlighted with '*', like this:

              staged     unstaged path
     1:       binary      nothing foo.png
   * 2:     +403/-35        +1/-1 git-add--interactive.perl

   To remove selection, prefix the input with - like this:

        Update>> -2

   After making the selection, answer with an empty line to
   stage the contents of working tree files for selected paths
   in the index.

 * 'revert' has a very similar UI to 'update', and the staged
   information for selected paths are reverted to that of the
   HEAD version.  Reverting new paths makes them untracked.

 * 'add untracked' has a very similar UI to 'update' and
   'revert', and lets you add untracked paths to the index.

 * 'patch' lets you choose one path out of 'status' like
   selection.  After choosing the path, it presents diff between
   the index and the working tree file and asks you if you want
   to stage the change of each hunk.  You can say:

        y - add the change from that hunk to index
        n - do not add the change from that hunk to index
        a - add the change from that hunk and all the rest to index
        d - do not the change from that hunk nor any of the rest to index
        j - do not decide on this hunk now, and view the next
            undecided hunk
        J - do not decide on this hunk now, and view the next hunk
        k - do not decide on this hunk now, and view the previous
            undecided hunk
        K - do not decide on this hunk now, and view the previous hunk

   After deciding the fate for all hunks, if there is any hunk
   that was chosen, the index is updated with the selected hunks.

 * 'diff' lets you review what will be committed (i.e. between
   HEAD and index).

This is still rough, but does everything except a few things I
think are needed.

 * 'patch' should be able to allow splitting a hunk into
   multiple hunks.

 * 'patch' does not adjust the line offsets @@ -k,l +m,n @@
   in the hunk header.  This does not have major problem in
   practice, but it _should_ do the adjustment.

 * It does not have any explicit support for a merge in
   progress; it may not work at all.

1510fea781 Avoid accessing a slow working copy during diffcore operations.
The Cygwin folks have done a fine job at creating a POSIX layer
on Windows That Just Works(tm).  However it comes with a penalty;
accessing files in the working tree by way of stat/open/mmap can
be slower for diffcore than inflating the data from a blob which
is stored in a packfile.

This performance problem is especially an issue in merge-recursive
when dealing with nearly 7000 added files, as we are loading
each file's content from the working directory to perform rename
detection.  I have literally seen (and sadly watched) paint dry in
less time than it takes for merge-recursive to finish such a merge.
On the other hand this very same merge runs very fast on Solaris.

If Git is compiled with NO_FAST_WORKING_DIRECTORY set then we will
avoid looking at the working directory when the blob in question
is available within a packfile and the caller doesn't need the data
unpacked into a temporary file.

We don't use loose objects as they have the same open/mmap/close
costs as the working directory file access, but have the additional
CPU overhead of needing to inflate the content before use.  So it
is still faster to use the working tree file over the loose object.

If the caller needs the file data unpacked into a temporary file
its likely because they are going to call an external diff program,
passing the file as a parameter.  In this case reusing the working
tree file will be faster as we don't need to inflate the data and
write it out to a temporary file.

The NO_FAST_WORKING_DIRECTORY feature is enabled by default on
Cygwin, as that is the platform which currently appears to benefit
the most from this option.

Putting NO_FINK or NO_DARWIN_PORTS in config.mak is ignored because the
checks are done before the config is included.

ba1f5f3537 Add builtin merge-file, a minimal replacement for RCS merge
merge-file has the same syntax as RCS merge, but supports only the
"-L" option.

For good measure, a test is added, which is quite minimal, though.

[jc: further fix for compliation errors included.]

f848718a69 Make perl/ build procedure ActiveState friendly.
On Cygwin + ActivateState Perl, Makefile generated with
MakeMaker is not usable because of line-endings and
back-slashes.

This teaches perl/Makefile to write a handcrafted equivalent
perl.mak file with 'make NO_PERL_MAKEMAKER=NoThanks'.

857b933e04 xdiff: add xdl_merge()
This new function implements the functionality of RCS merge, but
in-memory. It returns < 0 on error, otherwise the number of conflicts.

Finding the conflicting lines can be a very expensive task. You can
control the eagerness of this algorithm:

- a level value of 0 means that all overlapping changes are treated
  as conflicts,
- a value of 1 means that if the overlapping changes are identical,
  it is not treated as a conflict.
- If you set level to 2, overlapping changes will be analyzed, so that
  almost identical changes will not result in huge conflicts. Rather,
  only the conflicting lines will be shown inside conflict markers.

With each increasing level, the algorithm gets slower, but more accurate.
Note that the code for level 2 depends on the simple definition of
mmfile_t specific to git, and therefore it will be harder to port that
to LibXDiff.
