This changes semantics very subtly, because it adds a new atomicity
guarantee.
In particular, if you "git rm" several files, it will now do all or
nothing. The old shell-script really looped over the removed files one by
one, and would basically randomly fail in the middle if "-f" was used and
one of the files didn't exist in the working directory.
This C builtin one will not re-write the index after each remove, but
instead remove all files at once. However, that means that if "-f" is used
(to also force removal of the file from the working directory), and some
files have already been removed from the workspace, it won't stop in the
middle in some half-way state like the old one did.
So what happens is that if the _first_ file fails to be removed with "-f",
we abort the whole "git rm". But once we've started removing, we don't
leave anything half done. If some of the other files don't exist, we'll
just ignore errors of removal from the working tree.
This is only an issue with "-f", of course.
I think the new behaviour is strictly an improvement, but perhaps more
importantly, it is _different_. As a special case, the semantics are
identical for the single-file case (which is the only one our test-suite
seems to test).
The other question is what to do with leading directories. The old "git
rm" script didn't do anything, which is somewhat inconsistent. This one
will actually clean up directories that have become empty as a result of
removing the last file, but maybe we want to have a flag to decide the
behaviour?

Now there is a bar across the middle (just below the bar containing
the sha1 ID, find string etc.) which controls highlighting. There are
three ways to highlight: the user can highlight commits affecting
a list of paths, commits in a view, or commits where the author or
committer matches any of a list of strings (case-insensitive). The
elements of the list of paths and list of names are delimited by
whitespace with shell quoting rules.

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.

An earlier patch from Shawn Pearce dependes on a change that is
only in "next". I do not want to make this series hostage to
the yet-to-graduate js/fmt-patch branch, but let's try fixing it
by merging the early parts of the branch to see what happens.
Right now, 'sp/reflog' will not be in "next" for now, so I won't
have to regret this -- if this merge causes problem down the road
merging I can always rebuild the topic branch ;-).
Switch git checkout -b to use git-update-ref rather than echo and
a shell I/O redirection. This is more in line with typical GIT
commands and allows -b to be logged according to the normal ref
logging rules.
Added -l option to allow users to create the ref log at the same

Corrected the log starting time displayed in the error message
(as it was always showing the epoch due to a bad input to strtoul).
Improved the log parser so we only scan backwards towards the
'\n' from the end of the prior log; during this scan the last '>'
is remembered to improve performance (rather than scanning forward
to it).
If the log record matched is the last log record in the file only
use its new sha1 value if the date matches exactly; otherwise we
leave the passed in sha1 alone as it already contains the current
value of the ref. This way lookups of dates later than the log
end to stick with the current ref value in case the ref was updated
without logging.
If it looks like someone changed the ref without logging it and we
are going to return the sha1 which should have been valid during
the missing period then warn the user that there might be log data
missing and thus their query result may not be accurate. The check
isn't perfect as its just based on comparing the old and new sha1
values between the two log records but its better than not checking
at all.
Implemented test cases based on git-rev-parse for most of the
boundary conditions.

Gitk wants to use git-diff-tree as a filter to tell it which ids from
a given list affect a set of files or directories. We don't want to
fork and exec a new git-diff-tree process for each batch of ids, since
there could be a lot of relatively small batches. For example, a
batch could contain as many ids as fit in gitk's headline display
window, i.e. 20 or so, and we would be processing a new batch every
time the user scrolls that window.
The --stdin flag to git-diff-tree is suitable for this, but the main
difficulty is that the output of git-diff-tree gets buffered and
doesn't get sent until the buffer is full.
This provides a way to get git-diff-tree to flush its output buffers.
If a blank line is supplied on git-diff-tree's standard input, it will
flush its output buffers and then accept further input.
