Tomasz Fortuna reported that "git commit" does not error out properly when
it cannot write tree objects out. "git write-tree" shares the same issue,
as the failure to notice the error is deep in the logic to write tree
objects out recursively.

The original "rewrite in C" did somewhat a sloppy job while
stealing code from git-write-tree.
The caller pretends as if the write_tree() function would return
an error code and being able to issue a sensible error message
itself, but write_tree() function just calls die() and never
returns an error. Worse yet, the function claims that it was
running git-write-tree (which is no longer true after
cherry-pick stole it).

This converts the index explicitly on read and write to its on-disk
format, allowing the in-core format to contain more flags, and be
simpler.
In particular, the in-core format is now host-endian (as opposed to the
on-disk one that is network endian in order to be able to be shared
across machines) and as a result we can dispense with all the
htonl/ntohl on accesses to the cache_entry fields.
This will make it easier to make use of various temporary flags that do
not exist in the on-disk format.

* Add strbuf_rtrim to remove trailing spaces.
* Add strbuf_insert to insert data at a given position.
* Off-by one fix in strbuf_addf: strbuf_avail() does not counts the final
\0 so the overflow test for snprintf is the strict comparison. This is
not critical as the growth mechanism chosen will always allocate _more_
memory than asked, so the second test will not fail. It's some kind of
miracle though.
* Add size extension hints for strbuf_init and strbuf_read. If 0, default
applies, else:
+ initial buffer has the given size for strbuf_init.
+ first growth checks it has at least this size rather than the
default 8192.

This teaches the really fundamental core SHA1 object handling routines
about gitlinks. We can compare trees with gitlinks in them (although we
can not actually generate patches for them yet - just raw git diffs),
and they show up as commits in "git ls-tree".
We also know to compare gitlinks as if they were directories (ie the
normal "sort as trees" rules apply).

Most callers of write_sha1_file_prepare() are only interested in the
resulting hash but don't care about the returned file name or the header.
This patch adds a simple wrapper named hash_sha1_file() which does just
that, and converts potential callers.

This abstracts away the size of the hash values when copying them
from memory location to memory location, much as the introduction
of hashcmp abstracted away hash value comparsion.
A few call sites were using char* rather than unsigned char* so
I added the cast rather than open hashcpy to be void*. This is a
reasonable tradeoff as most call sites already use unsigned char*
and the existing hashcmp is also declared to be unsigned char*.
[jc: Splitted the patch to "master" part, to be followed by a
patch for merge-recursive.c which is not in "master" yet.
Fixed the cast in the latter hunk to combine-diff.c which was
wrong in the original.
Also converted ones left-over in combine-diff.c, diff-lib.c and
upload-pack.c ]

The "bind" commit can express an aggregation of multiple
projects into a single commit.
In such an organization, there would be one project, root of
whose tree object is at the same level of the root of the
aggregated projects, and other projects have their toplevel in
separate subdirectories. Let's call that root level project the
"primary project", and call other ones just "subprojects".
You would first read-tree the primary project, and then graft
the subprojects under their appropriate location using read-tree
--prefix=<subdir>/ repeatedly.
To write out a tree object from such an index for a subproject,
write-tree --prefix=<subdir>/ is used.

On one of my systems, sscanf() first calls strlen() on the buffer. But
this buffer is not terminated by NUL. So git crashed.
strtol() does not share that problem, as it stops reading after the
first non-digit.

structure correctly; this has been fixed up and tested minimally

This teaches read-tree to fully populate valid cache-tree when
reading a tree from scratch, or reading a single tree into an
existing index, reusing only the cached stat information (i.e.
one-way merge). We have already taught update-index about cache-tree,
so "git checkout" followed by updates to a few path followed by
a "git commit" would become very efficient.

Not that this makes practical performance difference; the kernel tree
for example has 200 or so directories that have subdirectory, and the
largest ones have 57 of them (fs and drivers). With a test to apply
600 patches with git-apply and git-write-tree, this did not make more
than one per-cent of a difference, but it is a good cleanup.

We reused the cache-tree data without verifying the tree object
still exists. Recompute in cache_tree_update() an otherwise
valid cache-tree entry when the tree object disappeared.
This is not usually a problem, but theoretically without this
fix things can break when the user does something like this:
- read-index from a side branch
- write-tree the result
- remove the side branch with "git branch -D"
- remove the unreachable objects with "git prune"
- write-tree what is in the index.

The cache_tree data structure is to cache tree object names that
would result from the current index file.
The idea is to have an optional file to record each tree object
name that corresponds to a directory path in the cache when we
run write_cache(), and read it back when we run read_cache().
During various index manupulations, we selectively invalidate
the parts so that the next write-tree can bypass regenerating
tree objects for unchanged parts of the directory hierarchy.
We could perhaps make the cache-tree data an optional part of
the index file, but that would involve the index format updates,
so unless we need it for performance reasons, the current plan
is to use a separate file, $GIT_DIR/index.aux to store this
information and link it with the index file with the checksum
that is already used for index file integrity check.
