ef08ef9ea0 remote-helpers: Support custom transport options
Some transports, like the native pack transport implemented by
fetch-pack, support useful features like depth or include tags.
These should be exposed if the underlying helper knows how to
use them.

292ce46b60 remote-helpers: Fetch more than one ref in a batch
Some network protocols (e.g. native git://) are able to fetch more
than one ref at a time and reduce the overall transfer cost by
combining the requests into a single exchange.  Instead of feeding
each fetch request one at a time to the helper, feed all of them
at once so the helper can decide whether or not it should batch them.

78affc49de Add multi_ack_detailed capability to fetch-pack/upload-pack
When multi_ack_detailed is enabled the ACK continue messages returned
by the remote upload-pack are broken out to describe the different
states within the peer.  This permits the client to better understand
the server's in-memory state.

The fetch-pack/upload-pack protocol now looks like:

NAK
---------------------------------
  Always sent in response to "done" if there was no common base
  selected from the "have" lines (or no have lines were sent).

  * no multi_ack or multi_ack_detailed:

    Sent when the client has sent a pkt-line flush ("0000") and
    the server has not yet found a common base object.

  * either multi_ack or multi_ack_detailed:

    Always sent in response to a pkt-line flush.

ACK %s
-----------------------------------
  * no multi_ack or multi_ack_detailed:

    Sent in response to "have" when the object exists on the remote
    side and is therefore an object in common between the peers.
    The argument is the SHA-1 of the common object.

  * either multi_ack or multi_ack_detailed:

    Sent in response to "done" if there are common objects.
    The argument is the last SHA-1 determined to be common.

ACK %s continue
-----------------------------------
  * multi_ack only:

    Sent in response to "have".

    The remote side wants the client to consider this object as
    common, and immediately stop transmitting additional "have"
    lines for objects that are reachable from it.  The reason
    the client should stop is not given, but is one of the two
    cases below available under multi_ack_detailed.

ACK %s common
-----------------------------------
  * multi_ack_detailed only:

    Sent in response to "have".  Both sides have this object.
    Like with "ACK %s continue" above the client should stop
    sending have lines reachable for objects from the argument.

ACK %s ready
-----------------------------------
  * multi_ack_detailed only:

    Sent in response to "have".

    The client should stop transmitting objects which are reachable
    from the argument, and send "done" soon to get the objects.

    If the remote side has the specified object, it should
    first send an "ACK %s common" message prior to sending
    "ACK %s ready".

    Clients may still submit additional "have" lines if there are
    more side branches for the client to explore that might be added
    to the common set and reduce the number of objects to transfer.

28754ab5f0 Move "get_ack()" back to fetch-pack
In 41cb7488 Linus moved this function to connect.c for reuse inside
of the git-clone-pack command.  That was 2005, but in 2006 Junio
retired git-clone-pack in commit efc7fa53.  Since then the only
caller has been fetch-pack.  Since this ACK/NAK exchange is only
used by the fetch-pack/upload-pack protocol we should move it back
to be a private detail of fetch-pack.

edace6f02e fetch-pack: Use a strbuf to compose the want list
This change is being offered as a refactoring to make later
commits in the smart HTTP series easier.

By changing the enabled capabilities to be formatted in a strbuf
it is easier to add a new capability to the set of supported
capabilities.

By formatting the want portion of the request into a strbuf and
writing it as a whole block we can later decide to hold onto
the req_buf (instead of releasing it) to recycle in stateless
communications.

eab58f1e8e Handle more shell metacharacters in editor names
Pass the editor name to the shell if it contains any susv3 shell
special character (globs, redirections, variable substitutions,
escapes, etc).  This way, the meaning of some characters will not
meaninglessly change when others are added, and git commands
implemented in C and in shell scripts will interpret editor names
in the same way.

This does not make the GIT_EDITOR setting any more expressive,
since one could always use single quotes to force the editor to
be passed to the shell.

134748353b Teach 'git merge' and 'git pull' the option --ff-only
For convenience in scripts and aliases, add the option
--ff-only to only allow fast-forwards (and up-to-date,
despite the name).

Disallow combining --ff-only and --no-ff, since they
flatly contradict each other.

Allow all other options to be combined with --ff-only
(i.e. do not add any code to handle them specially),
including the following options:

* --strategy (one or more): As long as the chosen merge
  strategy results in up-to-date or fast-forward, the
  command will succeed.

* --squash: I cannot imagine why anyone would want to
  squash commits only if fast-forward is possible, but I
  also see no reason why it should not be allowed.

* --message: The message will always be ignored, but I see
  no need to explicitly disallow providing a redundant message.

Acknowledgements: I did look at Yuval Kogman's earlier
patch (107768 in gmane), mainly as shortcut to find my
way in the code, but I did not copy anything directly.

500348aa68 ls-files: unbreak "ls-files -i"
Commit b5227d8 changed the behavior of "ls-files" with
respect to includes, but accidentally broke the "-i" option
The original behavior was:

  1. if no "-i" is given, cull all results according to --exclude*
  2. if "-i" is given, show the inverse of (1)

The broken behavior was:

  1. if no "-i" is given:
     a. for "-o", cull results according to --exclude*
     b. for index files, always show all
  2. if "-i" is given:
     a. for "-o", shows the inverse of (1a)
     b. for index files, always show all

The fixed behavior keeps the new (1b) behavior introduced
by b5227d8, but fixes the (2b) behavior to show only ignored
files, not all files.

This patch also tweaks the documentation. The original text
was somewhat obscure in the first place, but it is also now
inaccurate (the relationship between (1b) and (2b) is not
quite a "reverse").

a4ca1465ec diff --color-words -U0: fix the location of hunk headers
Colored word diff without context lines firstly printed all the hunk
headers among each other and then printed the diff.

This was due to the code relying on getting at least one context line at
the end of each hunk, where the colored words would be flushed (it is
done that way to be able to ignore rewrapped lines).

ad3f9a71a8 Add '--bisect' revision machinery argument
I personally use "git bisect visualize" all the time when I bisect, but it
turns out that that is not a very flexible model. Sometimes I want to do
bisection based on all commits (no pathname limiting), but then visualize
the current bisection tree with just a few pathnames because I _suspect_
those pathnames are involved in the problem but am not totally sure about
them.

And at other times, I want to use other revision parsing logic, none of
which is available with "git bisect visualize".

So this adds "--bisect" as a revision parsing argument, and as a result it
just works with all the normal logging tools. So now I can just do

	gitk --bisect --simplify-by-decoration filename-here

etc.

ade2ca0ca9 Do not try to remove directories when removing old links
When building Git with MSVC on Windows, directories named after the Git alias
are created for the output files, e.g. there is a "git-merge-index" directory
next to the "git-merge-index.exe" executable in the build root. Previously,
"make all" just checked if "git-merge-index" and "git-merge-index.exe" are the
same file, and if not, tried to remove "git-merge-index". This fails in the
case of "git-merge-index" being a directory, which is why this is checked now.

24ab81ae4d add-interactive: handle deletion of empty files
Usually we show deletion as a big hunk deleting all of the
file's text. However, for files with no content, the diff
shows just the 'deleted file mode ...' line. This patch
cause "add -p" (and related commands) to recognize that line
and explicitly ask about deleting the file.

We only add the "stage this deletion" hunk for empty files,
since other files will already ask about the big content
deletion hunk. We could also change those files to simply
display "stage this deletion", but showing the actual
deleted content is probably what an interactive user wants.

c591d5f311 gitignore: root most patterns at the top-level directory
Our gitignore doesn't use a preceding "/" to root its
patterns in the top of the repository. This means that if
you add a file or directory called "git" (for example)

This patch was done mechanically with "s/^[^*]/\/&/" with
one exception: instead of ignoring gitk-wish, we should
gitk-git/gitk-wish (arguably, this should be done in
gitk-git/.gitignore, but because that is a subtree merge
from elsewhere, this is easier).

9f67d2e827 Teach "git describe" --dirty option
With the --dirty option, git describe works on HEAD but append s"-dirty"
iff the contents of the work tree differs from HEAD.  E.g.

  $ git describe --dirty
  v1.6.5-15-gc274db7
  $ echo >> Makefile
  $ git describe --dirty
  v1.6.5-15-gc274db7-dirty

The --dirty option can also be used to specify what is appended, instead
of the default string "-dirty".

  $ git describe --dirty=.mod
  v1.6.5-15-gc274db7.mod

Many build scripts use `git describe` to produce a version number based on
the description of HEAD (on which the work tree is based) + saying that if
the build contains uncommitted changes.  This patch helps the writing of
such scripts since `git describe --dirty` does directly the intended thing.

Three possiblities were considered while discussing this new feature:

1. Describe the work tree by default and describe HEAD only if "HEAD" is
   explicitly specified

     Pro: does the right thing by default (both for users and for scripts)
     Pro: other git commands that works on the work tree by default
     Con: breaks existing scripts used by the Linux kernel and other projects

2. Use --worktree instead of --dirty

     Pro: does what it says: "git describe --worktree" describes the work tree
     Con: other commands do not require a --worktree option when working
          on the work tree (it often is the default mode for them)
     Con: unusable with an optional value: "git describe --worktree=.mod"
	  is quite unintuitive.

3. Use --dirty as in this patch

     Pro: makes sense to specify an optional value (what the dirty mark is)
     Pro: does not have any of the big cons of previous alternatives
	  * does not break scripts
	  * is not inconsistent with other git commands

This patch takes the third approach.

acb9108c19 git-gui: adjust the minimum height of diff pane for shorter screen height
When the main window is maximized, if the screen height is shorter (e.g.
Netbook screen 1024x600), both the partial commit pane and the status bar
are hidden. The diff pane is resizable, so that it can use less vertical
height, allowing the overall window to be shorter and still display both
the entire commit pane and status bar.

dff589ef94 git-svn: convert SVN 1.5+ / svnmerge.py svn:mergeinfo props to parents
This feature is long overdue; convert SVN's merge representation to git's
as revisions are imported.  This works by converting the list of revisions
in each line of the svn:mergeinfo into git revision ranges, and then
checking the latest of each of these revision ranges for A) being new and
B) now being completely merged.

ce62683096 git-svn: add test data for SVN 1.5+ merge, with script.
Dump generated with SVN 1.5.1 (on lenny amd64).  This test
should hopefully cover all but a few intermediate versions of
the svnmerge.py script.

f1264bd654 git-svn: convert SVK merge tickets to extra parents
SVK is a simple case to start with, as its idea of merge parents
matches git's one.  When a svk:merge ticket is encountered, check each
of the listed merged revisions to see if they are in the history of
this commit; if not, then we have encountered a merge - record it.

[ew: minor formatting cleanups]

Possibly the 'perl' in the PATH is not the one to be used for the tests;
let PERL set in the environment select it.
