"git log --date=local" used to only show the normal (default)
format in the local timezone. The command learned to take 'local'
as an instruction to use the local timezone with other formats,
e.g. "git show --date=rfc-local".

When fast-import emits a crash report, it does so in the
user's local timezone. But because we omit the timezone
completely for DATE_LOCAL, a reader of the report does not
immediately know which time zone was used. Let's switch this
to ISO8601 instead, which includes the time zone.
This does mean we will show the time in UTC, but that's not
a big deal. A crash report like this will either be looked
at immediately (in which case nobody even looks at the
timestamp), or it will be passed along to a developer to
debug, in which case the original timezone is less likely to
be of interest.

Because git_path uses a static buffer that is shared with
calls to git_path, mkpath, etc, it can be dangerous to
assign the result to a variable or pass it to a non-trivial
function. The value may change unexpectedly due to other
calls.
None of the cases changed here has a known bug, but they're
worth converting away from git_path because:
1. It's easy to use git_pathdup in these cases.
2. They use constructs (like assignment) that make it
hard to tell whether they're safe or not.
The extra malloc overhead should be trivial, as an
allocation should be an order of magnitude cheaper than a
system call (which we are clearly about to make, since we
are constructing a filename). The real cost is that we must
remember to free the result.

The purpose of this function was not to move but to finalize. The

rename(2), which is a fun tangent.

Often a fast-import stream builds a new commit on top of the

When building a fast-import stream, it's easy to forget the fact
that for non-merge commits happening on top of the current branch
head, there is no need for a "from" command. That is corroborated by
the fact that at least git-p4, hg-fast-export and felipec's
git-remote-hg all unconditionally use a "from" command.
Unfortunately, giving a "from" command always resets the branch
tree, forcing it to be re-read, and in many cases, the pack is also
closed and reopened through gfi_unpack_entry. Both are unnecessary
overhead, and the latter is particularly slow at least on OSX.
Avoid resetting the tree when it's unmodified, and avoid calling
gfi_unpack_entry when the given mark points to the same commit as
the current branch head.

In preparation for adding date modes that may carry extra
information beyond the mode itself, this patch converts the
date_mode enum into a struct.
Most of the conversion is fairly straightforward; we pass
the struct as a pointer and dereference the type field where
necessary. Locations that declare a date_mode can use a "{}"
constructor. However, the tricky case is where we use the
enum labels as constants, like:
show_date(t, tz, DATE_NORMAL);
Ideally we could say:
show_date(t, tz, &{ DATE_NORMAL });
but of course C does not allow that. Likewise, we cannot
cast the constant to a struct, because we need to pass an
actual address. Our options are basically:
1. Manually add a "struct date_mode d = { DATE_NORMAL }"
definition to each caller, and pass "&d". This makes
the callers uglier, because they sometimes do not even
have their own scope (e.g., they are inside a switch
statement).
2. Provide a pre-made global "date_normal" struct that can
be passed by address. We'd also need "date_rfc2822",
"date_iso8601", and so forth. But at least the ugliness
is defined in one place.
3. Provide a wrapper that generates the correct struct on
the fly. The big downside is that we end up pointing to
a single global, which makes our wrapper non-reentrant.
But show_date is already not reentrant, so it does not
matter.
This patch implements 3, along with a minor macro to keep
the size of the callers sane.

When an import has finished, we run end_packfile() to
finalize the data and move the packfile into place. If this
process fails, we call die() and end up in our die_nicely()
handler. Which unfortunately includes running end_packfile
to save any progress we made. We enter the function again,
and start operating on the pack_data struct while it is in
an inconsistent state, leading to a segfault.
One way to trigger this is to simply start two identical
fast-imports at the same time. They will both create the
same packfiles, which will then try to create identically
named ".keep" files. One will win the race, and the other
will die(), and end up with the segfault.
Since 3c078b9, we already reset the pack_data pointer to
NULL at the end of end_packfile. That covers the case of us
calling die() right after end_packfile, before we have
reinitialized the pack_data pointer. This new problem is
quite similar, except that we are worried about calling
die() _during_ end_packfile, not right after. Ideally we
would simply set pack_data to NULL as soon as we enter the
function, and operate on a copy of the pointer.
Unfortunately, it is not so easy. pack_data is a global, and
end_packfile calls into other functions which operate on the
global directly. We would have to teach each of these to
take an argument, and there is no guarantee that we would
catch all of the spots.
Instead, we can simply use a static flag to avoid
recursively entering the function. This is a little less
elegant, but it's short and fool-proof.

Many of the date functions write into fixed-size buffers.
This is a minor pain, as we have to take special
precautions, and frequently end up copying the result into a
strbuf or heap-allocated buffer anyway (for which we
sometimes use strcpy!).
Let's instead teach parse_date, datestamp, etc to write to a
strbuf. The obvious downside is that we might need to
perform a heap allocation where we otherwise would not need
to. However, it turns out that the only two new allocations
required are:
1. In test-date.c, where we don't care about efficiency.
2. In determine_author_info, which is not performance
critical (and where the use of a strbuf will help later
refactoring).

We have a global pointer pack_data pointing to the current
pack we have open. Inside end_packfile we have two new
pointers, old_p and new_p. The latter points to pack_data,
and the former points to the new "installed" version of the
packfile we get when we hand the file off to the regular
sha1_file machinery. When then free old_p.
Presumably the extra old_p pointer was there so that we
could overwrite pack_data with new_p and still free old_p,
but we don't do that. We just leave pack_data pointing to
bogus memory, and don't overwrite it until we call
start_packfile again (if ever).
This can cause problems for our die routine, which calls
end_packfile to clean things up. If we die at the wrong
moment, we can end up looking at invalid memory in
pack_data left after the last end_packfile().
Instead, let's make sure we set pack_data to NULL after we
free it, and make calling endfile() again with a NULL
pack_data a noop (there is nothing to end).
We can further make things less confusing by dropping old_p
entirely, and moving new_p closer to its point of use.

When we see a file change in a commit, we expect one of:
1. A mark.
2. An "inline" keyword.
3. An object sha1.
The handling of spaces is inconsistent between the three
options. Option 1 calls a sub-function which checks for the
space, but doesn't parse past it. Option 2 parses the space,
then deliberately avoids moving the pointer past it. Option
3 detects the space locally but doesn't move past it.
This is confusing, because it looks like option 1 forgets to
check for the space (it's just buried). And option 2 checks
for "inline ", but only moves strlen("inline") characters
forward, which looks like a bug but isn't.
We can make this more clear by just having each branch move
past the space as it is checked (and we can replace the
doubled use of "inline" with a call to skip_prefix).

Fast-import does a lot of parsing of commands and
dispatching to sub-functions. For example, given "option
foo", we might recognize "option " using starts_with, and
then hand it off to parse_option() to do the rest.
However, we do not let parse_option know that we have parsed
the first part already. It gets the full buffer, and has to
skip past the uninteresting bits. Some functions simply add
a magic constant:
char *option = command_buf.buf + 7;
Others use strlen:
char *option = command_buf.buf + strlen("option ");
And others use strchr:
char *option = strchr(command_buf.buf, ' ') + 1;
All of these are brittle and easy to get wrong (especially
given that the starts_with call and the code that assumes
the presence of the prefix are far apart). Instead, we can
use skip_prefix, and just pass each handler a pointer to its
arguments.

It's a common idiom to match a prefix and then skip past it
with a magic number, like:
if (starts_with(foo, "bar"))
foo += 3;
This is easy to get wrong, since you have to count the
prefix string yourself, and there's no compiler check if the
string changes. We can use skip_prefix to avoid the magic
numbers here.
Note that some of these conversions could be much shorter.
For example:
if (starts_with(arg, "--foo=")) {
bar = arg + 6;
continue;
}
could become:
if (skip_prefix(arg, "--foo=", &bar))
continue;
However, I have left it as:
if (skip_prefix(arg, "--foo=", &v)) {
bar = v;
continue;
}
to visually match nearby cases which need to actually
process the string. Like:
if (skip_prefix(arg, "--foo=", &v)) {
bar = atoi(v);

Fast-import shares code between its command-line parser and
the "option" command. To do so, it strips the "--" from any
command-line options and passes them to the option parser.
However, it does not confirm that the option even begins
with "--" before blindly passing "arg + 2".
It does confirm that the option starts with "-", so the only
affected case was:
git fast-import -
which would read uninitialized memory after the argument. We
can fix it by using skip_prefix and checking the result. As
a bonus, this gets rid of some magic numbers.
