d23748a6af update-index: allow --index-info to add higher stages.
The new merge world order tells the merge strategies to leave
the cache unmerged and store the automerge result in the working
tree if automerge is not clean.  This was done for the resolve
strategy and recursive strategy when no rename is involved, but
recording a conflicting merge in the rename case could not
easily be done by the recursive strategy.

This commit adds a new input format, in addition to the exsting
two, to "update-index --index-info".

    (1) mode         SP sha1          TAB path
    The first format is what "git-apply --index-info"
    reports, and used to reconstruct a partial tree
    that is used for phony merge base tree when falling
    back on 3-way merge.

    (2) mode SP type SP sha1          TAB path
    The second format is to stuff git-ls-tree output
    into the index file.

    (3) mode         SP sha1 SP stage TAB path
    This format is to put higher order stages into the
    index file and matches git-ls-files --stage output.

To place a higher stage entry to the index, the path should
first be removed by feeding a mode=0 entry for the path, and
then feeding necessary input lines in the (3) format.

For example, starting with this index:

$ git ls-files -s
100644 8a1218a1024a212bb3db30becd860315f9f3ac52 0       frotz

$ git update-index --index-info ;# interactive session -- input follows...

0 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000	frotz
100644 8a1218a1024a212bb3db30becd860315f9f3ac52 1	frotz
100755 8a1218a1024a212bb3db30becd860315f9f3ac52 2	frotz

The first line of the input feeds 0 as the mode to remove the
path; the SHA1 does not matter as long as it is well formatted.
Then the second and third line feeds stage 1 and stage 2 entries
for that path.  After the above, we would end up with this:

$ git ls-files -s
100644 8a1218a1024a212bb3db30becd860315f9f3ac52 1	frotz
100755 8a1218a1024a212bb3db30becd860315f9f3ac52 2	frotz

This completes the groundwork for the new merge world order.

9754563ca9 Use printf rather than echo -n.
On AIX, there is no -n option to the system's echo.  Instead,
it needs the '\c' control character.  We could replace
  echo -n "foo"
with
  echo -e "foo\c"
but printf is recommended by most man pages.  Tested on AIX
5.3, Solaris 8, and Debian.

[jc: futureproofed two instances that uses variable with '%s'
 so later feeding different messages would not break things too
 easily; others are emitting literal so whoever changes the
 literal ought to notice more easily so they are safe.]

be61db922a git-merge-one-file: resurrect leading path creation.
Since we do not use git-update-index followed by
git-checkout-index -u to create the half-merged file on
conflicting case anymore, we need to make sure the leading
directories are created here.

Maybe a better solution would be to allow update-index to add to
higher stage, and checkout-index to extract from such, but that
is a change slightly bigger than I would like to have so close
to 1.0, so this should do for now.

mktemp(1) is not used anywhere else in the core git.  Do not

Not everybody's "which" gives a sane return value.  For example,
on Solaris 'which XXX' says "no XXX in /usr/bin /bin ..." and
exits with zero status.  The lesson here is to never use 'which'

4050c0df8e Clean up compatibility definitions.
This attempts to clean up the way various compatibility
functions are defined and used.

 - A new header file, git-compat-util.h, is introduced.  This
   looks at various NO_XXX and does necessary function name
   replacements, equivalent of -Dstrcasestr=gitstrcasestr in the
   Makefile.

 - Those function name replacements are removed from the Makefile.

 - Common features such as usage(), die(), xmalloc() are moved
   from cache.h to git-compat-util.h; cache.h includes
   git-compat-util.h itself.

d79374c7b5 [PATCH] daemon.c and path.enter_repo(): revamp path validation.
The whitelist of git-daemon is checked against return value from
enter_repo(), and enter_repo() used to return the value obtained
from getcwd() to avoid directory aliasing issues as discussed
earier (mid October 2005).

Unfortunately, it did not go well as we hoped.

For example, /pub on a kernel.org public machine is a symlink to
its real mountpoint, and it is understandable that the
administrator does not want to adjust the whitelist every time
/pub needs to point at a different partition for storage
allcation or whatever reasons.  Being able to keep using
/pub/scm as the whitelist is a desirable property.

So this version of enter_repo() reports what it used to chdir()
and validate, but does not use getcwd() to canonicalize the
directory name.  When it sees a user relative path ~user/path,
it internally resolves it to try chdir() there, but it still
reports ~user/path (possibly after appending .git if allowed to
do so, in which case it would report ~user/path.git).

What this means is that if a whitelist wants to allow a user
relative path, it needs to say "~" (for all users) or list user
home directories like "~alice" "~bob".  And no, you cannot say
/home if the advertised way to access user home directories are
~alice,~bob, etc.  The whole point of this is to avoid
unnecessary aliasing issues.

Anyway, because of this, daemon needs to do a bit more work to
guard itself.  Namely, it needs to make sure that the accessor
does not try to exploit its leading path match rule by inserting
/../ in the middle or hanging /.. at the end.  I resurrected the
belts and suspender paranoia code HPA did for this purpose.

This check cannot be done in the enter_repo() unconditionally,
because there are valid callers of enter_repo() that want to
honor /../; authorized users coming over ssh to run send-pack
and fetch-pack should be allowed to do so.
