2bda2cf4f9 Improve collection of information for format-patch --cover-letter
Use the "boundary" feature to find the origin (or find that there are
multiple origins), and use the actual list of commits to pass to
shortlog.

This makes all cover letter include shortlogs, and all cover letters
for series with a single boundary commit include diffstats (if there
are multiple boundary commits it's unclear what would be meaningful as
a diffstat). Note that the single boundary test is empirical, not
theoretical; even a -2 limiting condition will give a diffstat if there's
only one boundary commit in this particular case.

736cc67dd7 Support a --cc=<email> option in format-patch
When you have particular reviewers you want to sent particular series
to, it's nice to be able to generate the whole series with them as
additional recipients, without configuring them into your general
headers or adding them by hand afterwards.

3ee79d9f59 Combine To: and Cc: headers
RFC 2822 only permits a single To: header and a single Cc: header, so
we need to turn multiple values of each of these into a list. This
will be particularly significant with a command-line option to add Cc:
headers, where the user can't make sure to configure valid header sets
in any easy way.

3384a2dfc1 shortlog: default to HEAD when the standard input is a tty
Instead of warning the user that it is expecting git log output from
the standard input (and waiting for the user to type the log from
the keyboard, which is a silly thing to do), default to traverse from
HEAD when there is no rev parameter given and the standard input is
a tty.

This factors out a useful helper "add_head()" from builtin-diff.c to a
more appropriate place revision.c while renaming it to more descriptive
name add_head_to_pending(), as that is what the function is about.

774751a8bc Re-fix "builtin-commit: fix --signoff"
An earlier fix to the said commit was incomplete; it mixed up the
meaning of the flag parameter passed to the internal fmt_ident()
function, so this corrects it.

git_author_info() and git_committer_info() can be told to issue a
warning when no usable user information is found, and optionally can be
told to error out.  Operations that actually use the information to
record a new commit or a tag will still error out, but the caller to
leave reflog record will just silently use bogus user information.

Not warning on misconfigured user information while writing a reflog
entry is somewhat debatable, but it is probably nicer to the users to
silently let it pass, because the only information you are losing is who
checked out the branch.

 * git_author_info() and git_committer_info() used to take 1 (positive
   int) to error out with a warning on misconfiguration; this is now
   signalled with a symbolic constant IDENT_ERROR_ON_NO_NAME.

 * These functions used to take -1 (negative int) to warn but continue;
   this is now signalled with a symbolic constant IDENT_WARN_ON_NO_NAME.

 * fmt_ident() function implements the above error reporting behaviour
   common to git_author_info() and git_committer_info().  A symbolic
   constant IDENT_NO_DATE can be or'ed in to the flag parameter to make
   it return only the "Name <email@address.xz>".

 * fmt_name() is a thin wrapper around fmt_ident() that always passes
   IDENT_ERROR_ON_NO_NAME and IDENT_NO_DATE.

7dc0fe3be5 Fix parent rewriting in --early-output
We cannot tell a node that has been checked and found not to be
interesting (which does not have the TREECHANGE flag) from a
node that hasn't been checked if it is interesting or not,
without relying on something else, such as object->parsed.

But an object can get the "parsed" flag for other reasons.
Which means that "TREECHANGE" has the wrong polarity.

This changes the way how the path pruning logic marks an
uninteresting commits.  From now on, we consider a commit
interesting by default, and explicitly mark the ones we decided
to prune.  The flag is renamed to "TREESAME".

Then, this fixes the logic to show the early output with
incomplete pruning.  It basically says "a commit that has
TREESAME set is kind-of-UNINTERESTING", but obviously in a
different way than an outright UNINTERESTING commit.  Until we
parse and examine enough parents to determine if a commit
becomes surely "kind-of-UNINTERESTING", we avoid rewriting
the ancestry so that later rounds can fix things up.

53b2c823f6 revision walker: mini clean-up
This removes the unnecessary indirection of "revs->prune_fn",
since that function is always the same one (or NULL), and there
is in fact not even an abstraction reason to make it a function
(i.e. its not called from some other file and doesn't allow us
to keep the function itself static or anything like that).

It then just replaces it with a bit that says "prune or not",
and if not pruning, every commit gets TREECHANGE.

That in turn means that

 - if (!revs->prune_fn || (flags & TREECHANGE))
 - if (revs->prune_fn && !(flags & TREECHANGE))

just become

 - if (flags & TREECHANGE)
 - if (!(flags & TREECHANGE))

respectively.

Together with adding the "single_parent()" helper function, the "complex"
conditional now becomes

	if (!(flags & TREECHANGE) && rev->dense && single_parent(commit))
		continue;

Also indirection of "revs->dense" checking is thrown away the
same way, because TREECHANGE bit is set appropriately now.

252a7c0235 Enhance --early-output format
This makes --early-output a bit more advanced, and actually makes it
generate multiple "Final output:" headers as it updates things
asynchronously. I realize that the "Final output:" line is now illogical,
since it's not really final until it also says "done", but

It now _always_ generates a "Final output:" header in front of any commit
list, and that output header gives you a *guess* at the maximum number of
commits available. However, it should be noted that the guess can be
completely off: I do a reasonable job estimating it, but it is not meant
to be exact.

So what happens is that you may get output like this:

 - at 0.1 seconds:

	Final output: 2 incomplete
	.. 2 commits listed ..

 - half a second later:

	Final output: 33 incomplete
	.. 33 commits listed ..

 - another half a second after that:

	Final output: 71 incomplete
	.. 71 commits listed ..

 - another half second later:

	Final output: 136 incomplete
	.. 100 commits listed: we hit the --early-output limit, and
	.. will only output 100 commits, and after this you'll not
	.. see an "incomplete" report any more since you got as much
	.. early output as you asked for!

 - .. and then finally:

	Final output: 73106 done
	.. all the commits ..

The above is a real-life scenario on my current kernel tree after having
flushed all the caches.

Tested with the experimental gitk patch that Paul sent out, and by looking
at the actual log output (and verifying that my commit count guesses
actually match real life fairly well).

cdcefbc971 Add "--early-output" log flag for interactive GUI use
This adds support for "--early-output[=n]" as a flag to the "git log"
family of commands.  This allows GUI programs to state that they want to
get some output early, in order to be able to show at least something
quickly, even if the full output may take longer to generate.

If no count is specified, a default count of a hundred commits will be
used, although the actual numbr of commits output may be smaller
depending on how many commits were actually found in the first tenth of
a second (or if *everything* was found before that, in which case no
early output will be provided, and only the final list is made
available).

When the full list is generated, there will be a "Final output:" string
prepended to it, regardless of whether any early commits were shown or
not, so that the consumer can always know the difference between early
output and the final list.

674d172730 Rework pretty_print_commit to use strbufs instead of custom buffers.
Also remove the "len" parameter, as:
  (1) it was used as a max boundary, and every caller used ~0u
  (2) we check for final NUL no matter what, so it doesn't help for speed.

  As a result most of the pp_* function takes 3 arguments less, and we need
a lot less local variables, this makes the code way more readable, and
easier to extend if needed.

  This patch also fixes some spacing and cosmetic issues.

8a1d076e21 "format-patch --root rev" is the way to show everything.
We used to trigger the special case "things not in origin"
semantics only when one and only one positive ref is given, and
no number (e.g. "git format-patch -4 origin") was specified, and
used the general revision range semantics for everything else.

This narrows the special case a bit more, by making:

	git format-patch --root this_version

to show everything that leads to the named commit.

More importantly, document the two different semantics better.
The generic revision range semantics came later and bolted on
without being clearly documented.

750f7b668f Finally implement "git log --follow"
Ok, I've really held off doing this too damn long, because I'm lazy, and I
was always hoping that somebody else would do it.

But no, people keep asking for it, but nobody actually did anything, so I
decided I might as well bite the bullet, and instead of telling people
they could add a "--follow" flag to "git log" to do what they want to do,
I decided that it looks like I just have to do it for them..

The code wasn't actually that complicated, in that the diffstat for this
patch literally says "70 insertions(+), 1 deletions(-)", but I will have
to admit that in order to get to this fairly simple patch, you did have to
know and understand the internal git diff generation machinery pretty
well, and had to really be able to follow how commit generation interacts
with generating patches and generating the log.

So I suspect that while I was right that it wasn't that hard, I might have
been expecting too much of random people - this patch does seem to be
firmly in the core "Linus or Junio" territory.

To make a long story short: I'm sorry for it taking so long until I just
did it.

I'm not going to guarantee that this works for everybody, but you really
can just look at the patch, and after the appropriate appreciative noises
("Ooh, aah") over how clever I am, you can then just notice that the code
itself isn't really that complicated.

All the real new code is in the new "try_to_follow_renames()" function. It
really isn't rocket science: we notice that the pathname we were looking
at went away, so we start a full tree diff and try to see if we can
instead make that pathname be a rename or a copy from some other previous
pathname. And if we can, we just continue, except we show *that*
particular diff, and ever after we use the _previous_ pathname.

One thing to look out for: the "rename detection" is considered to be a
singular event in the _linear_ "git log" output! That's what people want
to do, but I just wanted to point out that this patch is *not* carrying
around a "commit,pathname" kind of pair and it's *not* going to be able to
notice the file coming from multiple *different* files in earlier history.

IOW, if you use "git log --follow", then you get the stupid CVS/SVN kind
of "files have single identities" kind of semantics, and git log will just
pick the identity based on the normal move/copy heuristics _as_if_ the
history could be linearized.

Put another way: I think the model is broken, but given the broken model,
I think this patch does just about as well as you can do. If you have
merges with the same "file" having different filenames over the two
branches, git will just end up picking _one_ of the pathnames at the point
where the newer one goes away. It never looks at multiple pathnames in
parallel.

And if you understood all that, you probably didn't need it explained, and
if you didn't understand the above blathering, it doesn't really mtter to
you. What matters to you is that you can now do

	git log -p --follow builtin-rev-list.c

and it will find the point where the old "rev-list.c" got renamed to
"builtin-rev-list.c" and show it as such.

80583c0ef6 Lift 16kB limit of log message output
Traditionally we had 16kB limit when formatting log messages for
output, because it was easier to arrange for the caller to have
a reasonably big buffer and pass it down without ever worrying
about reallocating.

This changes the calling convention of pretty_print_commit() to
lift this limit.  Instead of the buffer and remaining length, it
now takes a pointer to the pointer that points at the allocated
buffer, and another pointer to the location that stores the
allocated length, and reallocates the buffer as necessary.

To support the user format, the error return of interpolate()
needed to be changed.  It used to return a bool telling "Ok the
result fits", or "Sorry, I had to truncate it".  Now it returns
0 on success, and returns the size of the buffer it wants in
order to fit the whole result.

2bfe3cec92 Fix git {log,show,...} --pretty=email
An earlier --subject-prefix patch forgot that format-patch is
not the only codepath that adds the "[PATCH]" prefix, and broke
everybody else in the log family.

5d23e133d2 Refactor patch-id filtering out of git-cherry and git-format-patch.
This implements the patch-id computation and recording library,
patch-ids.c, and rewrites the get_patch_ids() function used in
cherry and format-patch to use it, so that they do not pollute
the object namespace.  Earlier code threw non-objects into the
in-core object database, and hoped for not getting bitten by
SHA-1 collisions.  While it may be practically Ok, it still was
an ugly hack.

2d9e4a47d1 Add custom subject prefix support to format-patch (take 3)
Add a new option to git-format-patch, entitled --subject-prefix that allows
control of the subject prefix '[PATCH]'. Using this option, the text 'PATCH' is
replaced with whatever input is provided to the option. This allows easily
generating patches like '[PATCH 2.6.21-rc3]' or properly numbered series like
'[-mm3 PATCH N/M]'. This patch provides the implementation and documentation.

c112f689c2 format-patch: add --inline option and make --attach a true attachment
The existing --attach option did not create a true "attachment"
but multipart/mixed with Content-Disposition: inline.  It should
have been with Content-Disposition: attachment.

Introduce --inline to add multipart/mixed that is inlined, and
make --attach to create an attachement.

21666f1aae convert object type handling from a string to a number
We currently have two parallel notation for dealing with object types
in the code: a string and a numerical value.  One of them is obviously
redundent, and the most used one requires more stack space and a bunch
of strcmp() all over the place.

This is an initial step for the removal of the version using a char array
found in object reading code paths.  The patch is unfortunately large but
there is no sane way to split it in smaller parts without breaking the
system.

c06d2daa12 Limit filename for format-patch
Badly formatted commits may have very long comments. This causes
git-format-patch to fail. To avoid that, truncate the filename
to a value we believe will always work.

Err out if the patch file cannot be created.
