  Create a sysconfdir variable, and use it for ETC_GITCONFIG

b51b8bbf14 Create a sysconfdir variable, and use it for ETC_GITCONFIG
ETC_GITCONFIG defaults to $(prefix)/etc/gitconfig, so if you just set
prefix=/usr, you end up with a git that looks in /usr/etc/gitconfig, rather
than /etc/gitconfig as specified by the FHS.  Furthermore, setting
ETC_GITCONFIG does not fix the paths to any future system-wide configuration
files.

Factor out the path to the system-wide configuration directory into a variable
sysconfdir, normally set to $(prefix)/etc, but set to /etc when prefix=/usr .
This fixes the prefix=/usr problem for ETC_GITCONFIG, and allows centralized
configuration of any future system-wide configuration files without requiring
further action from package maintainers or other people building and
installing git.

96a02f8f6d common progress display support
Instead of having this code duplicated in multiple places, let's have
a common interface for progress display.  If someday someone wishes to
display a cheezy progress bar instead then only one file will have to
be changed.

Note: I left merge-recursive.c out since it has a strange notion of
progress as it apparently increase the expected total number as it goes.
Someone with more intimate knowledge of what that is supposed to mean
might look at converting it to the common progress interface.

d0bfd026a8 Add basic infrastructure to assign attributes to paths
This adds the basic infrastructure to assign attributes to
paths, in a way similar to what the exclusion mechanism does
based on $GIT_DIR/info/exclude and .gitignore files.

An attribute is just a simple string that does not contain any
whitespace.  They can be specified in $GIT_DIR/info/attributes
file, and .gitattributes file in each directory.

Each line in these files defines a pattern matching rule.
Similar to the exclusion mechanism, a later match overrides an
earlier match in the same file, and entries from .gitattributes
file in the same directory takes precedence over the ones from
parent directories.  Lines in $GIT_DIR/info/attributes file are
used as the lowest precedence default rules.

A line is either a comment (an empty line, or a line that begins
with a '#'), or a rule, which is a whitespace separated list of
tokens.  The first token on the line is a shell glob pattern.
The rest are names of attributes, each of which can optionally
be prefixed with '!'.  Such a line means "if a path matches this
glob, this attribute is set (or unset -- if the attribute name
is prefixed with '!').  For glob matching, the same "if the
pattern does not have a slash in it, the basename of the path is
matched with fnmatch(3) against the pattern, otherwise, the path
is matched with the pattern with FNM_PATHNAME" rule as the
exclusion mechanism is used.

This does not define what an attribute means.  Tying an
attribute to various effects it has on git operation for paths
that have it will be specified separately.

9aef12673e Don't yap about merge-subtree during make
By default we are pretty quiet about the actual commands that
we are running.  So we should continue to be quiet about the new
merge-subtree hardlink to merge-recursive.  Technically this is not
a builtin, but it is close because subtree is actually builtin to
a non-builtin.  So lets just make things easy and call it a builtin.

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.

2dca1af448 simple random data generator for tests
Reliance on /dev/urandom produces test vectors that are, well, random.
This can cause problems impossible to track down when the data is
different from one test invokation to another.

The goal is not to have random data to test, but rather to have a
convenient way to create sets of large files with non compressible and
non deltifiable data in a reproducible way.

68faf68938 A new merge stragety 'subtree'.
This merge strategy largely piggy-backs on git-merge-recursive.
When merging trees A and B, if B corresponds to a subtree of A,
B is first adjusted to match the tree structure of A, instead of
reading the trees at the same level.  This adjustment is also
done to the common ancestor tree.

If you are pulling updates from git-gui repository into git.git
repository, the root level of the former corresponds to git-gui/
subdirectory of the latter.  The tree object of git-gui's toplevel
is wrapped in a fake tree object, whose sole entry has name 'git-gui'
and records object name of the true tree, before being used by
the 3-way merge code.

If you are merging the other way, only the git-gui/ subtree of
git.git is extracted and merged into git-gui's toplevel.

The detection of corresponding subtree is done by comparing the
pathnames and types in the toplevel of the tree.

Heuristics galore!  That's the git way ;-).

Tcl/Tk programs.

New tracking file, GIT-GUI-VARS, was introduced: it tracks the
location of the Tcl/Tk interpreter and activates the GUI tools
rebuild if the interpreter path was changed. The separate tracker
is better than the GIT-CFLAGS: there is no need to rebuild the whole
git if the interpreter path was changed.

74f2b2a8d0 Make 'make' quieter while building git
I find it difficult to see compiler warnings amongst the massive
spewing produced by GNU make as it works through our productions.
This is especially true if CFLAGS winds up being rather long, due
to a large number of -W options being enabled and due to a number
of -D options being configured/required by my platform.

By defining QUIET_MAKE (e.g. make QUIET_MAKE=YesPlease) during
compilation users will get a less verbose output, such as:

    ...
    CC builtin-grep.c
builtin-grep.c:187: warning: 'external_grep' defined but not used
    CC builtin-init-db.c
    CC builtin-log.c
    CC builtin-ls-files.c
    CC builtin-ls-tree.c

The verbose (normal make) output is still the default.

This is intended to be a portable replacement for our usage
of date(1), touch(1), and Perl one-liners in tests.

Usage: test-chtime (+|=|-|=+|=-)<seconds> <file>..."

  '+' increments the mtime on the files by <seconds>
  '-' decrements the mtime on the files by <seconds>
  '=' sets the mtime on the file to exactly <seconds>
  '=+' and '=-' sets the mtime on the file to <seconds> after or
      before the current time.

2e0afafebd Add git-bundle: move objects and references by archive
Some workflows require use of repositories on machines that cannot be
connected, preventing use of git-fetch / git-push to transport objects and
references between the repositories.

git-bundle provides an alternate transport mechanism, effectively allowing
git-fetch and git-pull to operate using sneakernet transport. `git-bundle
create` allows the user to create a bundle containing one or more branches
or tags, but with specified basis assumed to exist on the target
repository. At the receiving end, git-bundle acts like git-fetch-pack,
allowing the user to invoke git-fetch or git-pull using the bundle file as
the URL. git-fetch and git-ls-remote determine they have a bundle URL by
checking that the URL points to a file, but are otherwise unchanged in
operation with bundles.

The original patch was done by Mark Levedahl <mdl123@verizon.net>.

It was updated to make git-bundle a builtin, and get rid of the tar
format: now, the first line is supposed to say "# v2 git bundle", the next
lines either contain a prerequisite ("-" followed by the hash of the
needed commit), or a ref (the hash of a commit, followed by the name of
the ref), and finally the pack. As a result, the bundle argument can be
"-" now.
