e702496e43 Convert memcpy(a,b,20) to hashcpy(a,b).
This abstracts away the size of the hash values when copying them
from memory location to memory location, much as the introduction
of hashcmp abstracted away hash value comparsion.

A few call sites were using char* rather than unsigned char* so
I added the cast rather than open hashcpy to be void*.  This is a
reasonable tradeoff as most call sites already use unsigned char*
and the existing hashcmp is also declared to be unsigned char*.

[jc: Splitted the patch to "master" part, to be followed by a
 patch for merge-recursive.c which is not in "master" yet.

 Fixed the cast in the latter hunk to combine-diff.c which was
 wrong in the original.

 Also converted ones left-over in combine-diff.c, diff-lib.c and
 upload-pack.c ]

7230e6d042 Add write_or_die(), a helper function
The little helper write_or_die() won't come back with bad news about
full disks or broken pipes.  It either succeeds or terminates the
program, making additional error handling unnecessary.

This patch adds the new function and uses it to replace two similar
ones (the one in tar-tree originally has been copied from cat-file
btw.).  I chose to add the fd parameter which both lacked to make
write_or_die() just as flexible as write() and thus suitable for
lib-ification.

There is a regression: error messages emitted by this function don't
show the program name, while the replaced two functions did.  That's
acceptable, I think; a lot of other functions do the same.

a89fccd281 Do not use memcmp(sha1_1, sha1_2, 20) with hardcoded length.
Introduces global inline:

	hashcmp(const unsigned char *sha1, const unsigned char *sha2)

Uses memcmp for comparison and returns the result based on the length of
the hash name (a future runtime decision).

40aaae88ad Better error message when we are unable to lock the index file
Most of the callers except the one in refs.c use the function to
update the index file.  Among the index writers, everybody
except write-tree dies if they cannot open it for writing.

This gives the function an extra argument, to tell it to die
when it cannot create a new file as the lockfile.

The only caller that does not have to die is write-tree, because
updating the index for the cache-tree part is optional and not
being able to do so does not affect the correctness.  I think we
do not have to be so careful and make the failure into die() the
same way as other callers, but that would be a different patch.

93821bd97a sha1_file: add the ability to parse objects in "pack file format"
The pack-file format is slightly different from the traditional git
object format, in that it has a much denser binary header encoding.
The traditional format uses an ASCII string with type and length
information, which is somewhat wasteful.

A new object format starts with uncompressed binary header
followed by compressed payload -- this will allow us later to
copy the payload straight to packfiles.

Obviously they cannot be read by older versions of git, so for
now new object files are created with the traditional format.
core.legacyheaders configuration item, when set to false makes
the code write in new format for people to experiment with.

6d297f8137 Status update on merge-recursive in C
This is just an update for people being interested. Alex and me were
busy with that project for a few days now. While it has progressed nicely,
there are quite a couple TODOs in merge-recursive.c, just search for "TODO".

For impatient people: yes, it passes all the tests, and yes, according
to the evil test Alex did, it is faster than the Python script.

But no, it is not yet finished. Biggest points are:

- there are still three external calls
- in the end, it should not be necessary to write the index more than once
  (just before exiting)
- a lot of things can be refactored to make the code easier and shorter

BTW we cannot just plug in git-merge-tree yet, because git-merge-tree
does not handle renames at all.

This patch is meant for testing, and as such,

- it compile the program to git-merge-recur
- it adjusts the scripts and tests to use git-merge-recur instead of
  git-merge-recursive
- it provides "TEST", a script to execute the tests regarding -recursive
- it inlines the changes to read-cache.c (read_cache_from(), discard_cache()
  and refresh_cache_entry())

2718ff098a Improve git-peek-remote
This makes git-peek-remote able to basically do everything that
git-ls-remote does (but obviously just for the native protocol, so no
http[s]: or rsync: support).

The default behaviour is the same, but you can now give a mixture of
"--refs", "--tags" and "--heads" flags, where "--refs" forces
git-peek-remote to only show real refs (ie none of the fakey tag lookups,
but also not the special pseudo-refs like HEAD and MERGE_HEAD).

The "--tags" and "--heads" flags respectively limit the output to just
regular tags and heads, of course.

You can still also ask to limit them by name too.

You can combine the flags, so

	git peek-remote --refs --tags .

will show all local _true_ tags, without the generated tag lookups
(compare the output without the "--refs" flag).

And "--tags --heads" will show both tags and heads, but will avoid (for
example) any special refs outside of the standard locations.

I'm also planning on adding a "--ignore-local" flag that allows us to ask
it to ignore any refs that we already have in the local tree, but that's
an independent thing.

All this is obviously gearing up to making "git fetch" cheaper.

12f6c308d5 Make zlib compression level configurable, and change default.
With the change in default, "git add ." on kernel dir is about
twice as fast as before, with only minimal (0.5%) change in
object size. The speed difference is even more noticeable
when committing large files, which is now up to 8 times faster.

The configurability is through setting core.compression = [-1..9]
which maps to the zlib constants; -1 is the default, 0 is no
compression, and 1..9 are various speed/size tradeoffs, 9
being slowest.

855419f764 Add specialized object allocator
This creates a simple specialized object allocator for basic
objects.

This avoids wasting space with malloc overhead (metadata and
extra alignment), since the specialized allocator knows the
alignment, and that objects, once allocated, are never freed.

It also allows us to track some basic statistics about object
allocations. For example, for the mozilla import, it shows
object usage as follows:

     blobs:   627629 (14710 kB)
     trees:  1119035 (34969 kB)
   commits:   196423  (8440 kB)
      tags:     1336    (46 kB)

and the simpler allocator shaves off about 2.5% off the memory
footprint off a "git-rev-list --all --objects", and is a bit
faster too.

[ Side note: this concludes the series of "save memory in object storage".
  The thing is, there simply isn't much more to be saved on the objects.

  Doing "git-rev-list --all --objects" on the mozilla archive has a final
  total RSS of 131498 pages for me: that's about 513MB. Of that, the
  object overhead is now just 56MB, the rest is going somewhere else (put
  another way: the fact that this patch shaves off 2.5% of the total
  memory overhead, considering that objects are now not much more than 10%
  of the total shows how big the wasted space really was: this makes
  object allocations much more memory- and time-efficient).

  I haven't looked at where the rest is, but I suspect the bulk of it is
  just the pack-file loading. It may be that we should pack the tree
  objects separately from the blob objects: for git-rev-list --objects, we
  don't actually ever need to even look at the blobs, but since trees and
  blobs are interspersed in the pack-file, we end up not being dense in
  the tree accesses, so we end up looking at more pages than we strictly
  need to.

  So with a 535MB pack-file, it's entirely possible - even likely - that
  most of the remaining RSS is just the mmap of the pack-file itself. We
  don't need to map in _all_ of it, but we do end up mapping a fair
  amount. ]

405e5b2fe0 Libify the index refresh logic
This cleans up and libifies the "git update-index --[really-]refresh"
functionality. This will be eventually required for eventually doing the
"commit" and "status" commands as built-ins.

It really just moves "refresh_index()" from update-index.c to
read-cache.c, but it also has to change the calling convention so that the
function uses a "unsigned int flags" argument instead of various static
flags variables for passing down the information about whether to be quiet
or not, and allow unmerged entries etc.

That actually cleans up update-index.c too, since it turns out that all
those flags were really specific to that one function of the index update,
so they shouldn't have had file-scope visibility even before.

0660626caf binary diff: further updates.
This updates the user interface and generated diff data format.

 * "diff --binary" is used to signal that we want an e-mailable
   binary patch.  It implies --full-index and -p.

 * "apply --allow-binary-replacement" acquired a short synonym
   "apply --binary".

 * After the "GIT binary patch\n" header line there is a token
   to record which binary patch mechanism was used, so that we
   can extend it later.  Currently there are two mechanisms
   defined: "literal" and "delta".  The former records the
   deflated postimage and the latter records the deflated delta
   from the preimage to postimage.

   For purely implementation convenience, I added the deflated
   length after these "literal/delta" tokens (otherwise the
   decoding side needs to guess and reallocate the buffer while
   inflating).  Improvement patches are very welcomed.

051308f6e9 binary patch.
This adds "binary patch" to the diff output and teaches apply
what to do with them.

On the diff generation side, traditionally, we said "Binary
files differ\n" without giving anything other than the preimage
and postimage object name on the index line.  This was good
enough for applying a patch generated from your own repository
(very useful while rebasing), because the postimage would be
available in such a case.  However, this was not useful when the
recipient of such a patch via e-mail were to apply it, even if
the preimage was available.

This patch allows the diff to generate "binary" patch when
operating under --full-index option.  The binary patch follows
the usual extended git diff headers, and looks like this:

	"GIT binary patch\n"
	<length byte><data>"\n"
	...
	"\n"

Each line is prefixed with a "length-byte", whose value is upper
or lowercase alphabet that encodes number of bytes that the data
on the line decodes to (1..52 -- 'A' means 1, 'B' means 2, ...,
'Z' means 26, 'a' means 27, ...).  <data> is 1 or more groups of
5-byte sequence, each of which encodes up to 4 bytes in base85
encoding.  Because 52 / 4 * 5 = 65 and we have the length byte,
an output line is capped to 66 characters.  The payload is the
same diff-delta as we use in the packfiles.

On the consumption side, git-apply now can decode and apply the
binary patch when --allow-binary-replacement is given, the diff
was generated with --full-index, and the receiving repository
has the preimage blob, which is the same condition as it always
required when accepting an "Binary files differ\n" patch.

5ee2ad654b Make "git clone" less of a deathly quiet experience
It used to be that "git-unpack-objects" would give nice percentages, but
now that we don't unpack the initial clone pack any more, it doesn't. And
I'd love to do that nice percentage view in the pack objects downloader
too, but the thing doesn't even read the pack header, much less know how
much it's going to get, so I was lazy and didn't.

Instead, it at least prints out how much data it's gotten, and what the
packing speed is. Which makes the user realize that it's actually doing
something useful instead of sitting there silently (and if the recipient
knows how large the final result is, he can at least make a guess about
when it migt be done).

So with this patch, I get something like this on my DSL line:

	[torvalds@g5 ~]$ time git clone master.kernel.org:/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6 clone-test
	Packing 188543 objects
	  48.398MB  (154 kB/s)

where even the speed approximation seems to be roughtly correct (even
though my algorithm is a truly stupid one, and only really gives "speed in
the last half second or so").

Anyway, _something_ like this is definitely needed. It could certainly be
better (if it showed the same kind of thing that git-unpack-objects did,
that would be much nicer, but would require parsing the object stream as
it comes in). But this is  big step forward, I think.

5f73076c1a "Assume unchanged" git
This adds "assume unchanged" logic, started by this message in the list
discussion recently:

	<Pine.LNX.4.64.0601311807470.7301@g5.osdl.org>

This is a workaround for filesystems that do not have lstat()
that is quick enough for the index mechanism to take advantage
of.  On the paths marked as "assumed to be unchanged", the user
needs to explicitly use update-index to register the object name
to be in the next commit.

You can use two new options to update-index to set and reset the
CE_VALID bit:

	git-update-index --assume-unchanged path...
	git-update-index --no-assume-unchanged path...

These forms manipulate only the CE_VALID bit; it does not change
the object name recorded in the index file.  Nor they add a new
entry to the index.

When the configuration variable "core.ignorestat = true" is set,
the index entries are marked with CE_VALID bit automatically
after:

 - update-index to explicitly register the current object name to the
   index file.

 - when update-index --refresh finds the path to be up-to-date.

 - when tools like read-tree -u and apply --index update the working
   tree file and register the current object name to the index file.

The flag is dropped upon read-tree that does not check out the index
entry.  This happens regardless of the core.ignorestat settings.

Index entries marked with CE_VALID bit are assumed to be
unchanged most of the time.  However, there are cases that
CE_VALID bit is ignored for the sake of safety and usability:

 - while "git-read-tree -m" or git-apply need to make sure
   that the paths involved in the merge do not have local
   modifications.  This sacrifices performance for safety.

 - when git-checkout-index -f -q -u -a tries to see if it needs
   to checkout the paths.  Otherwise you can never check
   anything out ;-).

 - when git-update-index --really-refresh (a new flag) tries to
   see if the index entry is up to date.  You can start with
   everything marked as CE_VALID and run this once to drop
   CE_VALID bit for paths that are modified.

Most notably, "update-index --refresh" honours CE_VALID and does
not actively stat, so after you modified a file in the working
tree, update-index --refresh would not notice until you tell the
index about it with "git-update-index path" or "git-update-index
--no-assume-unchanged path".

This version is not expected to be perfect.  I think diff
between index and/or tree and working files may need some
adjustment, and there probably needs other cases we should
automatically unmark paths that are marked to be CE_VALID.

But the basics seem to work, and ready to be tested by people
who asked for this feature.

d_type, this would have resulted in us redefining these preprocessor

Admittedly, that would be just a couple of compilation warnings, and

4f629539cd init-db: check template and repository format.
This makes init-db repository version aware.

It checks if an existing config file says the repository being
reinitialized is of a wrong version and aborts before doing
further harm.

When copying the templates, it makes sure the they are of the
right repository format version.  Otherwise the templates are
ignored with an warning message.

It copies the templates before creating the HEAD, and if the
config file is copied from the template directory, reads it,
primarily to pick up the value of core.symrefsonly.

It changes the way the result of the filemode reliability test
is written to the configuration file using git_config_set().
The test is done even if the config file was copied from the
templates.

And finally, our own repository format version is written to the
config file.

10bea152a3 Add functions git_config_set() and git_config_set_multivar()
The function git_config_set() does exactly what you think it does.
Given a key (in the form "core.filemode") and a value, it sets the
key to the value. Example:

	git_config_set("core.filemode", "true");

The function git_config_set_multivar() is meant for setting variables which
can have several values for the same key. Example:

	[diff]
		twohead = resolve
		twohead = recarsive

the typo in the second line can be replaced by

	git_config_set_multivar("diff.twohead", "recursive", "^recar");

The third argument of the function is a POSIX extended regex which has to
match the value. If there is no key/value pair with a matching value, a new
key/value pair is added.

These commands are also capable of unsetting (deleting) entries:

	git_config_set_multivar("diff.twohead", NULL, "sol");

will delete the entry

		twohead = resolve

3c07b1d194 git's rev-parse.c function show_datestring presumes gnu date
Ok. This is the insane patch to do this.

It really isn't very careful, and the reason I call it "approxidate()"
will become obvious when you look at the code. It is very liberal in what
it accepts, to the point where sometimes the results may not make a whole
lot of sense.

It accepts "last week" as a date string, by virtue of "last" parsing as
the number 1, and it totally ignoring superfluous fluff like "ago", so
"last week" ends up being exactly the same thing as "1 week ago". Fine so
far.

It has strange side effects: "last december" will actually parse as "Dec
1", which actually _does_ turn out right, because it will then notice that
it's not December yet, so it will decide that you must be talking about a
date last year. So it actually gets it right, but it's kind of for the
"wrong" reasons.

It also accepts the numbers 1..10 in string format ("one" .. "ten"), so
you can do "ten weeks ago" or "ten hours ago" and it will do the right
thing.

But it will do some really strange thigns too: the string "this will last
forever", will not recognize anyting but "last", which is recognized as
"1", which since it doesn't understand anything else it will think is the
day of the month. So if you do

	gitk --since="this will last forever"

the date will actually parse as the first day of the current month.

And it will parse the string "now" as "now", but only because it doesn't
understand it at all, and it makes everything relative to "now".

Similarly, it doesn't actually parse the "ago" or "from now", so "2 weeks
ago" is exactly the same as "2 weeks from now". It's the current date
minus 14 days.

But hey, it's probably better (and certainly faster) than depending on GNU
date. So now you can portably do things like

	gitk --since="two weeks and three days ago"
	git log --since="July 5"
	git-whatchanged --since="10 hours ago"
	git log --since="last october"

and it will actually do exactly what you thought it would do (I think). It
will count 17 days backwards, and it will do so even if you don't have GNU
date installed.

(I don't do "last monday" or similar yet, but I can extend it to that too
if people want).

It was kind of fun trying to write code that uses such totally relaxed
"understanding" of dates yet tries to get it right for the trivial cases.
The result should be mixed with a few strange preprocessor tricks, and be
submitted for the IOCCC ;)

Feel free to try it out, and see how many strange dates it gets right. Or
wrong.

And if you find some interesting (and valid - not "interesting" as in
"strange", but "interesting" as in "I'd be interested in actually doing
this) thing it gets wrong - usually by not understanding it and silently
just doing some strange things - please holler.

Now, as usual this certainly hasn't been getting a lot of testing. But my
code always works, no?

3299c6f6a8 diff: make default rename detection limit configurable.
A while ago, a rename-detection limit logic was implemented as a
response to this thread:

	http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=git&m=112413080630175

where gitweb was found to be using a lot of time and memory to
detect renames on huge commits.  git-diff family takes -l<num>
flag, and if the number of paths that are rename destination
candidates (i.e. new paths with -M, or modified paths with -C)
are larger than that number, skips rename/copy detection even
when -M or -C is specified on the command line.

This commit makes the rename detection limit easier to use.  You
can have:

	[diff]
		renamelimit = 30

in your .git/config file to specify the default rename detection
limit.  You can override this from the command line; giving 0
means 'unlimited':

	git diff -M -l0

We might want to change the default behaviour, when you do not
have the configuration, to limit it to say 20 paths or so.  This
would also help the diffstat generation after a big 'git pull'.

when upload-pack (called from git-daemon) is expected to receive

request of any project, or updates from the set of heads previous day
to the latest for a slow moving project).

Currently git-pack-objects does *not* keep pack files it creates for
reusing.  It might be useful to add --update-cache option to it,
which would allow it store pack files it created in the pack-cache
directory, and prune rarely used ones from it.

e1b10391ea Use git config file for committer name and email info
This starts using the "user.name" and "user.email" config variables if
they exist as the default name and email when committing.  This means
that you don't have to use the GIT_COMMITTER_EMAIL environment variable

The patch looks bigger than it is because it makes the default name and
email information non-static and renames it appropriately.  And it moves
the common git environment variables into a new library file, so that
you can link against libgit.a and get the git environment without having
to link in zlib and libcrypt.

In short, most of it is renaming and moving, the real change core is
just a few new lines in "git_default_config()" that copies the user
config values to the new base.

17712991a5 Add ".git/config" file parser
This is a first cut at a very simple parser for a git config file.

The format of the file is a simple ini-file like thing, with simple
variable/value pairs. You can (and should) make the variables have a
simple single-level scope, ie a valid file looks something like this:

	#
	# This is the config file, and
	# a '#' or ';' character indicates
	# a comment
	#

	; core variables
	[core]
		; Don't trust file modes
		filemode = false

	; Our diff algorithm
	[diff]
		external = "/usr/local/bin/gnu-diff -u"
		renames = true

which parses into three variables: "core.filemode" is associated with the
string "false", and "diff.external" gets the appropriate quoted value.

Right now we only react to one variable: "core.filemode" is a boolean that
decides if we should care about the 0100 (user-execute) bit of the stat
information. Even that is just a parsing demonstration - this doesn't
actually implement that st_mode compare logic itself.

Different programs can react to different config options, although they
should always fall back to calling "git_default_config()" on any config
option name that they don't recognize.

Right now we don't return any error value at all from parse_date(), and if

That's fine for the current user, which will always default to the current

error message rather than just the default date.

So let's change the thing to return a negative value if an error occurs,
and the length of the result otherwise (snprintf behaviour: if the buffer
is too small, it returns how big it _would_ have been).

d5a63b9983 Alternate object pool mechanism updates.
It was a mistake to use GIT_ALTERNATE_OBJECT_DIRECTORIES
environment variable to specify what alternate object pools to
look for missing objects when working with an object database.
It is not a property of the process running the git commands,
but a property of the object database that is partial and needs
other object pools to complete the set of objects it lacks.

This patch allows you to have $GIT_OBJECT_DIRECTORY/info/alternates
whose contents is in exactly the same format as the environment
variable, to let an object database name alternate object pools
it depends on.

f88395ac23 Renaming push.
This allows git-send-pack to push local refs to a destination
repository under different names.

Here is the name mapping rules for refs.

* If there is no ref mapping on the command line:

 - if '--all' is specified, it is equivalent to specifying
   <local> ":" <local> for all the existing local refs on the
   command line
 - otherwise, it is equivalent to specifying <ref> ":" <ref> for
   all the refs that exist on both sides.

* <name> is just a shorthand for <name> ":" <name>

* <src> ":" <dst>

  push ref that matches <src> to ref that matches <dst>.

  - It is an error if <src> does not match exactly one of local
    refs.

  - It is an error if <dst> matches more than one remote refs.

  - If <dst> does not match any remote refs, either

    - it has to start with "refs/"; <dst> is used as the
      destination literally in this case.

    - <src> == <dst> and the ref that matched the <src> must not
      exist in the set of remote refs; the ref matched <src>
      locally is used as the name of the destination.

For example,

  - "git-send-pack --all <remote>" works exactly as before;

  - "git-send-pack <remote> master:upstream" pushes local master
    to remote ref that matches "upstream".  If there is no such
    ref, it is an error.

  - "git-send-pack <remote> master:refs/heads/upstream" pushes
    local master to remote refs/heads/upstream, even when
    refs/heads/upstream does not exist.

  - "git-send-pack <remote> master" into an empty remote
    repository pushes the local ref/heads/master to the remote
    ref/heads/master.

8f3f9b09dc [PATCH] Add update-server-info.
The git-update-server-info command prepares informational files
to help clients discover the contents of a repository, and pull
from it via a dumb transport protocols.  Currently, the
following files are produced.

 - The $repo/info/refs file lists the name of heads and tags
   available in the $repo/refs/ directory, along with their
   SHA1.  This can be used by git-ls-remote command running on
   the client side.

 - The $repo/info/rev-cache file describes the commit ancestry
   reachable from references in the $repo/refs/ directory.  This
   file is in an append-only binary format to make the server
   side friendly to rsync mirroring scheme, and can be read by
   git-show-rev-cache command.

 - The $repo/objects/info/pack file lists the name of the packs
   available, the interdependencies among them, and the head
   commits and tags contained in them.  Along with the other two
   files, this is designed to help clients to make smart pull
   decisions.

The git-receive-pack command is changed to invoke it at the end,
so just after a push to a public repository finishes via "git
push", the server info is automatically updated.

In addition, building of the rev-cache file can be done by a
standalone git-build-rev-cache command separately.

 - Built-in sha1_file unpacking knows that a base object of a

   advantage of that fact.

 - Earlier verify-pack command only checked the SHA1 sum for the
   entire pack file and did not look into its contents.  It now

 - It now has a hook to give more detailed information for

This patch also uses the same validation mechanism in fsck-cache
when the --full flag is used.

During normal operation, sha1_file.c verifies that a given .idx
file matches the .pack file by comparing the SHA1 checksum
stored in .idx file and .pack file as a minimum sanity check.
We may further want to check the pack signature and version when
we map the pack, but that would be a separate patch.

Earlier, errors to map a pack file was not flagged fatal but led
to a random fatal error later.  This version explicitly die()s

When a remote repository is deltified, we need to get the

The initial parts of each retrieved SHA1 file is inflated and
inspected to see if it is deltified, and its base object is
asked from the remote side when it is.  Since this partial
inflation and inspection has a small performance hit, it can
optionally be skipped by giving -d flag to git-*-pull commands.
This flag should be used only when the remote repository is
known to have no deltified objects.

everything the remote side has.

a15c1c60db [PATCH 2/3] Support symlinks in git-ls-files --others.
It is kind of surprising that this was missed in the last round,
but the work tree scanner in git-ls-files was still deliberately
ignoring symlinks.  This patch fixes it, so that --others will
correctly report unregistered symlinks.

8ac069ac0a Introduce GIT_DIR environment variable.
During the mailing list discussion on renaming GIT_ environment
variables, people felt that having one environment that lets the
user (or Porcelain) specify both SHA1_FILE_DIRECTORY (now
GIT_OBJECT_DIRECTORY) and GIT_INDEX_FILE for the default layout
would be handy.  This change introduces GIT_DIR environment
variable, from which the defaults for GIT_INDEX_FILE and
GIT_OBJECT_DIRECTORY are derived.  When GIT_DIR is not defined,
it defaults to ".git".  GIT_INDEX_FILE defaults to
"$GIT_DIR/index" and GIT_OBJECT_DIRECTORY defaults to
"$GIT_DIR/objects".

Special thanks for ideas and discussions go to Petr Baudis and
Daniel Barkalow.  Bugs are mine ;-)

d19938ab60 Rename environment variables.
H. Peter Anvin mentioned that using SHA1_whatever as an
environment variable name is not nice and we should instead use
names starting with "GIT_" prefix to avoid conflicts.  Here is
what this patch does:

 * Renames the following environment variables:

    New name                           Old Name

    GIT_AUTHOR_DATE                    AUTHOR_DATE
    GIT_AUTHOR_EMAIL                   AUTHOR_EMAIL
    GIT_AUTHOR_NAME                    AUTHOR_NAME
    GIT_COMMITTER_EMAIL                COMMIT_AUTHOR_EMAIL
    GIT_COMMITTER_NAME                 COMMIT_AUTHOR_NAME
    GIT_ALTERNATE_OBJECT_DIRECTORIES   SHA1_FILE_DIRECTORIES
    GIT_OBJECT_DIRECTORY               SHA1_FILE_DIRECTORY

 * Introduces a compatibility macro, gitenv(), which does an
   getenv() and if it fails calls gitenv_bc(), which in turn
   picks up the value from old name while giving a warning about
   using an old name.

 * Changes all users of the environment variable to fetch
   environment variable with the new name using gitenv().

 * Updates the documentation and scripts shipped with Linus GIT
   distribution.

The transition plan is as follows:

 * We will keep the backward compatibility list used by gitenv()
   for now, so the current scripts and user environments
   continue to work as before.  The users will get warnings when
   they have old name but not new name in their environment to
   the stderr.

 * The Porcelain layers should start using new names.  However,
   just in case it ends up calling old Plumbing layer
   implementation, they should also export old names, taking
   values from the corresponding new names, during the
   transition period.

 * After a transition period, we would drop the compatibility
   support and drop gitenv().  Revert the callers to directly
   call getenv() but keep using the new names.

   The last part is probably optional and the transition
   duration needs to be set to a reasonable value.

aac1794132 Improve sha1 object file writing.
Make it much safer: we write to a temporary file, and then link that
temporary file to the final destination. This avoids all the nasty
races if several people write the same object at the same time.

It should also result in nicer on-disk layout, since it means that
objects all get created in the same subdirectory. That makes a lot
of block allocation algorithms happier, since the objects will now
be allocated from the same zone.

it is a commit, and verified that the resulting object is a
