Currently if an external command returns error exit code, a generic exception
is thrown and there is no chance for the caller to retrieve the command's
output.
This patch introduces a Git::Error::Command exception class which is thrown
in this case and contains both the error code and the captured command output.
You can use the new git_cmd_try statement to fatally catch the exception
while producing a user-friendly message.
It also adds command_close_pipe() for easier checking of exit status of
a command we have just a pipe handle of. It has partial forward dependency
on the next patch, but basically only in the area of documentation.

So far, errors just killed the whole program and in case of an error
inside of libgit it would be totally uncatchable. This patch makes
Git.pm throw standard Perl exceptions instead. In the future we might
subclass Error to Git::Error or something but for now Error::Simple
is more than enough.

I have been thinking about how to do the error reporting the best
way and after scraping various overcomplicated concepts, I have
decided that by far the most elegant way is to throw Error exceptions;
the closest sane alternative is to catch the dies in Git.pm by
enclosing the calls in eval{}s and that's really _quite_ ugly.
The only "small" trouble is that Error.pm turns out sadly not to be
part of the standard distribution, and installation from CPAN is
a bother, especially if you can't install it system-wide. But since
it is very small, I've decided to just bundle it.

Instead of explicitly using the git wrapper to call external commands,
use the execv_git_cmd() function which will directly call whatever
needs to be called. GitBin option becomes useless so drop it.

This patch introduces a very basic and barebone Git.pm module
with a sketch of how the generic interface would look like;
most functions are missing, but this should give some good base.
I will continue expanding it.
Most desirable now is more careful error reporting, generic_in() for feeding
input to Git commands and the repository() constructor doing some poking
with git-rev-parse to get the git directory and subdirectory prefix.
Those three are basically the prerequisities for converting git-mv.
I will send them as follow-ups to this patch.
Currently Git.pm just wraps up exec()s of Git commands, but even that
is not trivial to get right and various Git perl scripts do it in
various inconsistent ways. In addition to Git.pm, there is now also
Git.xs which provides barebone Git.xs for directly interfacing with
libgit.a, and as an example providing the hash_object() function using
libgit.
This adds the Git module, integrates it to the build system and as
an example converts the git-fmt-merge-msg.perl script to it (the result
is not very impressive since its advantage is not quite apparent in this
one, but I just picked up the simplest Git user around).
Compared to v3, only very minor things were fixed in this patch (some
whitespaces, a missing export, tiny bug in git-fmt-merge-msg.perl);
at first I wanted to post them as a separate patch but since this
is still only in pu, I decided that it will be cleaner to just resend
the patch.

This IMNSHO cleans up the object hashing.
The hash expansion is separated out into a function of its own, the hash
array (and size) names are made more obvious, and the code is generally
made to look a bit more like the object-ref hashing.
It also gets rid of "find_object()" returning an index (or negative
position if no object is found), since that is made redundant by the
simplified object rehashing. The basic operation is now "lookup_object()"
which just returns the object itself.
There's an almost unmeasurable speed increase, but more importantly, I
think the end result is more readable.

With history simplification, we still show merges that are required
to make the history _complete_, i.e. say that you had:
a
|
b
/ \
c d
| |
and neither "a" nor "b" actually changed the file, but both "c" and "d"
did: in this case we have to leave "b" around just because otherwise there
would be no way to show the _relationship_, even if "b" itself doesn't
actually change the tree in any way what-so-ever.
It would make sense to make that further simplification if the
"--parents" flag wasn't present. In that case the user is
literally asking for a list of commits and is not interested in
the relationship between them.
This patch also fixes a real bug. Without this patch, the
"--parents --full-history" combination (which you'd get if you
do something like
gitk --full-history Makefile
or similar) will actually _drop_ merges where all children are identical.
That's wrong in the --full-history case, because it means that the graph
ends up missing lots of entries.
In the process, this also should make
git-rev-list --full-history Makefile
give just the _true_ list of all commits that changed Makefile (and
properly ignore merges that were identical in one parent), because now
we're not asking for "--parent", so we don't need the unnecessary merge
commits to keep the history together.

There are a few special places where some programs accessed the object
hash array directly, which bothered me because I wanted to play with some
simple re-organizations.
So this patch makes the object hash array data structures all entirely
local to object.c, and the few users who wanted to look at it now get to
use a function to query how many object index entries there can be, and to
actually access the array.

In the repacking window, if both objects we are looking at already came
from the same (old) pack-file, don't bother delta'ing them against each
other.
That means that we'll still always check for better deltas for (and
against!) _unpacked_ objects, but assuming incremental repacks, you'll
avoid the delta creation 99% of the time.

--follow-parent:
This is especially helpful when we're tracking a directory
that has been moved around within the repository, or if we
started tracking a branch and never tracked the trunk it was
descended from.
This relies on the SVN::* libraries to work. We can't
reliably parse path info from the svn command-line client
without relying on XML, so it's better just to have the SVN::*
libs installed.
This also removes oldvalue verification when calling update-ref
In SVN, branches can be deleted, and then recreated under the
same path as the original one with different ancestry
information, causing parent information to be mismatched /
misordered.
Also force the current ref, if existing, to be a parent,
regardless of whether or not it was specified.
--no-metadata:
This gets rid of the git-svn-id: lines at the end of every commit.
With this, you lose the ability to use the rebuild command. If
you ever lose your .git/svn/git-svn/.rev_db file, you won't be
able to fetch again, either. This is fine for one-shot imports.
Also fix some issues with multi-fetch --follow-parent that were
exposed while testing this. Additionally, repack checking is
simplified greatly.

Tested on a plain Ubuntu Hoary installation
using subversion 1.1.1-2ubuntu3
1.1.x issues I had to deal with:
* Avoid the noisy command-line client compatibility check if we
use the libraries.
* get_log() arguments differ (now using a nice wrapper from
Junio's suggestion)
* get_file() is picky about what kind of file handles it gets,
so I ended up redirecting STDOUT. I'm probably overflushing
my file handles, but that's the safest thing to do...
* BDB kept segfaulting on me during tests, so svnadmin will use FSFS
whenever we can.
* If somebody used an expanded CVS $Id$ line inside a file, then
propsetting it to use svn:keywords will cause the original CVS
$Id$ to be retained when asked for the original file. As far as
I can see, this is a server-side issue. We won't care in the
test anymore, as long as it's not expanded by SVN, a static
CVS $Id$ line is fine.
While we're at making ourselves more compatible, avoid grep
along with the -q flag, which is GNU-specific. (grep avoidance
tip from Junio, too)
