When cloning from a remote repository that has master, main, and
origin branches _and_ with the HEAD pointing at main branch, we
did quite confused things during clone. So this cleans things
up. The behaviour is a bit different between separate remotes/
layout and the mixed branches layout.
The newer layout with $GIT_DIR/refs/remotes/$origin/, things are
simpler and more transparent:
- remote branches are copied to refs/remotes/$origin/.
- HEAD points at the branch with the same name as the remote
HEAD points at, and starts at where the remote HEAD points at.
- $GIT_DIR/remotes/$origin file is set up to fetch all remote
branches, and merge the branch HEAD pointed at at the time of
the cloning.
Everything-in-refs/heads layout was the more confused one, but
cleaned up like this:
- remote branches are copied to refs/heads, but the branch
"$origin" is not copied, instead a copy of the branch the
remote HEAD points at is created there.
- HEAD points at the branch with the same name as the remote
HEAD points at, and starts at where the remote HEAD points at.
- $GIT_DIR/remotes/$origin file is set up to fetch all remote
branches except "$origin", and merge the branch HEAD pointed
at at the time of the cloning.
With this, the remote has master, main and origin, and its HEAD
points at main, you could:
git clone $URL --origin upstream
to use refs/heads/upstream as the tracking branch for remote
"main", and your primary working branch will also be "main".
"master" and "origin" are used to track the corresponding remote
branches and with this setup they do not have any special meaning.

I'm afraid I'll be accused of trying to suck all the jokes and the
personality out of the git documentation. I'm not! Really!
That said, "man git" is one of the first things a new user is likely try,
and it seems a little cruel to start off with a somewhat obscure joke
about the architecture of git.
So instead I'm trying for a relatively straightforward description of what
git does, and what features distinguish it from other systems, together
with immediate links to introductory documentation.
I also did some minor reorganization in an attempt to clarify the
classification of commands. And revised a bit for conciseness (as is
obvious from the diffstat--hopefully I didn't cut anything important).

What ends up not working very well at all is the combination of
"--topo-order" and the output filter in get_revision. It will
return NULL when we see the first commit out of date-order, even
if we have other commits coming.
So we really should do the "past the date order" thing in
get_revision() only if we have _not_ done it already in
limit_list().
Something like this.
The easiest way to test this is with just
gitk --since=3.days.ago
on the kernel tree. Without this patch, it tends to be pretty obviously
broken.

This makes git-rev-list able to do path-limiting without having to parse
all of history before it starts showing the results.
This makes things like "git log -- pathname" much more pleasant to use.
This is actually a pretty small patch, and the biggest part of it is
purely cleanups (turning the "goto next" statements into "continue"), but
it's conceptually a lot bigger than it looks.
What it does is that if you do a path-limited revision list, and you do
_not_ ask for pseudo-parenthood information, it won't do all the
path-limiting up-front, but instead do it incrementally in
"get_revision()".
This is an absolutely huge deal for anything like "git log -- <pathname>",
but also for some things that we don't do yet - like the "find where
things changed" logic I've described elsewhere, where we want to find the
previous revision that changed a file.
The reason I put "RFC" in the subject line is that while I've validated it
various ways, like doing
git-rev-list HEAD -- drivers/char/ | md5sum
before-and-after on the kernel archive, it's "git-rev-list" after all. In
other words, it's that really really subtle and complex central piece of
software. So while I think this is important and should go in asap, I also
think it should get lots of testing and eyeballs looking at the code.
Btw, don't even bother testing this with the git archive. git itself is so
small that parsing the whole revision history for it takes about a second
even with path limiting. The thing that _really_ shows this off is doing
git log drivers/
on the kernel archive, or even better, on the _historic_ kernel archive.
With this change, the response is instantaneous (although seeking to the
end of the result will obviously take as long as it ever did). Before this
change, the command would think about the result for tens of seconds - or
even minutes, in the case of the bigger old kernel archive - before
starting to output the results.
NOTE NOTE NOTE! Using path limiting with things like "gitk", which uses
the "--parents" flag to actually generate a pseudo-history of the
resulting commits won't actually see the improvement in interactivity,
since that forces git-rev-list to do the whole-history thing after all.
MAYBE we can fix that too at some point, but I won't promise anything.

The speed of the built-in diff generator is nice; but the function names
shown by `diff -p' are /really/ nice. And I hate having to choose. So,
we hack xdiff to find the function names and print them.
xdiff has grown a flag to say whether to dig up the function names. The
builtin_diff function passes this flag unconditionally. I suppose it
could parse GIT_DIFF_OPTS, but it doesn't at the moment. I've also
reintroduced the `function name' into the test suite, from which it was
removed in commit 3ce8f089.
The function names are parsed by a particularly stupid algorithm at the
moment: it just tries to find a line in the `old' file, from before the
start of the hunk, whose first character looks plausible. Still, it's
most definitely a start.

With the --directory flag however, git-ls-files would list even empty

When passing in a pathname pattern without the "--" separator on the
command line, we verify that the pathnames in question exist. However,
there were two bugs in that verification:
- git-rev-parse would only check the first pathname, and silently allow
any invalid subsequent pathname, whether it existed or not (which
defeats the purpose of the check, and is also inconsistent with what
git-rev-list actually does)
- git-rev-list (and "git log" etc) would check each filename, but if the
check failed, it would print the error using the first one, i.e.:
[torvalds@g5 git]$ git log Makefile bad-file
fatal: 'Makefile': No such file or directory
instead of saying that it's 'bad-file' that doesn't exist.
This fixes both bugs.
