There was a bug in dcommit (and commit-diff) which caused deltas
to be generated against the latest version of the changed file
in a repository, and not the revision we are diffing (the tree)
against locally.
This bug can cause recent changes to the svn repository to be
silently clobbered by git-svn if our repository is out-of-date.
Thanks to Steven Grimm for noticing the bug.
The (few) people using the commit-diff command are now required
to use the -r/--revision argument. dcommit usage is unchanged.

Since functions in fetch-clone.c were only used from fetch-pack.c,
its content has been merged with fetch-pack.c. This allows for better
coupling of features with much simpler implementations.
One new thing is that the (abscence of) --thin also enforce it on
index-pack now, such that index-pack will abort if a thin pack was
_not_ asked for.
The -k or --keep, when provided twice, now causes the fetched pack
to be left as a kept pack just like receive-pack currently does.
Eventually this will be used to close a race against concurrent
repacking.

Since keeping a pushed pack or exploding it into loose objects
should be a local repository decision this teaches receive-pack
to decide if it should call unpack-objects or index-pack --stdin
--fix-thin based on the setting of receive.unpackLimit and the
number of objects contained in the received pack.
If the number of objects (hdr_entries) in the received pack is
below the value of receive.unpackLimit (which is 5000 by default)
then we unpack-objects as we have in the past.
If the hdr_entries >= receive.unpackLimit then we call index-pack and
ask it to include our pid and hostname in the .keep file to make it
easier to identify why a given pack has been kept in the repository.
Currently this leaves every received pack as a kept pack. We really
don't want that as received packs will tend to be small. Instead we
want to delete the .keep file automatically after all refs have
been updated. That is being left as room for future improvement.

To prevent a race condition between `index-pack --stdin` and
`repack -a -d` where the repack deletes the newly created pack
file before any refs are updated to reference objects contained
within it we mark the pack file as one that should be kept. This
removes it from the list of packs that `repack -a -d` will consider
for removal.
Callers such as `receive-pack` which want to invoke `index-pack`
should use this new --keep option to prevent the newly created pack
and index file pair from being deleted before they have finished any
related ref updates. Only after all ref updates have been finished
should the associated .keep file be removed.

"new file" and "deleted file" were already reported in the
original code, but the logic was not as transparent as it could
have. This uses a few variables and more comments to clarify
the flow. The rule is: (1) if a path exists in the merge result
when no parent had it, we report "new" (otherwise it came from
the parents, as opposed to have added by the evil merge). (2) if
the path does not exist in the merge result, it is "deleted".
Since we can say "new" and "deleted", there is no reason not to
follow the /dev/null convention. This fixes it.
Appending function name after @@@ ... @@@ is trivial, so

This completes the initial round of git-pickaxe. In addition to
the detection of line movements we already have, this finds new
lines that were created by moving or cutting-and-pasting lines
from different files in the parent.
With this,
git pickaxe -f -n -C v1.4.0 -- revision.c
finds that a major part of that file actually came from
rev-list.c when Linus split the latter at commit ae563642 and
blames them to earlier commits that touch rev-list.c.

This makes pickaxe more intelligent than the classic blame.
A typical example is a change that moves one static C function
from lower part of the file to upper part of the same file,
because you added a new caller in the middle.
The versions in the parent and the child would look like this:
parent child
A static foo() {
B ...
C }
D A
E B
F C
G D
static foo() { ... call foo();
... E
} F
H G
H
With the classic blame algorithm, we can blame lines A B C D E F
G and H to the parent. The child is guilty of introducing the
line "... call foo();", and the blame is placed on the child.
However, the classic blame algorithm fails to notice that the
implementation of foo() at the top of the file is not new, and
moved from the lower part of the parent.
This commit introduces detection of such line movements, and
correctly blames the lines that were simply moved in the file to
the parent.

as Subversion permits revisions to be created with absolutely no
date/time associated with it but it apparently is possible as one
of the Subversion repositories that I'm tracking with 'git svn'
created such a revision on '(no date)' and by '(no user)'.

This command implements the git archive protocol on the server
side. This command is not intended to be used by the end user.
Underlying git-archive command line options are sent over the
protocol from "git-archive --remote=...", just like upload-tar
currently does with "git-tar-tree=...".
As for "git-archive" command implementation, this new command
does not execute any existing "git-{tar,zip}-tree" but rely
on the archive API defined by "git-archive" patch. Hence we
get 2 good points:
- "git-archive" and "git-upload-archive" share all option
parsing code.
- All kind of git-upload-{tar,zip} can be deprecated.

git-archive is a command to make TAR and ZIP archives of a git tree.
It helps prevent a proliferation of git-{format}-tree commands.
Instead of directly calling git-{tar,zip}-tree command, it defines
a very simple API, that archiver should implement and register in
"git-archive.c". This API is made up by 2 functions whose prototype
is defined in "archive.h" file.
- The first one is used to parse 'extra' parameters which have
signification only for the specific archiver. That would allow
different archive backends to have different kind of options.
- The second one is used to ask to an archive backend to build
the archive given some already resolved parameters.
The main reason for making this API is to avoid using
git-{tar,zip}-tree commands, hence making them useless. Maybe it's
time for them to die ?
It also implements remote operations by defining a very simple
protocol: it first sends the name of the specific uploader followed
the repository name (git-upload-tar git://example.org/repo.git).
Then it sends options. It's done by sending a sequence of one
argument per packet, with prefix "argument ", followed by a flush.
The remote protocol is implemented in "git-archive.c" for client
side and is triggered by "--remote=<repo>" option. For example,
to fetch a TAR archive in a remote repo, you can issue:
$ git archive --format=tar --remote=git://xxx/yyy/zzz.git HEAD
We choose to not make a new command "git-fetch-archive" for example,
avoind one more GIT command which should be nice for users (less
commands to remember, keeps existing --remote option).

The command unpack-objects dies upon the first error. This is
probably considered a feature -- if a pack is corrupt, instead
of trying to extract from it and possibly risking to contaminate
a good repository with objects whose validity is dubious, we
should seek a good copy of the pack and retry. However, we may
not have any good copy anywhere. This implements the last
resort effort to extract what are salvageable from such a
corrupt pack.
This flag might have helped Sergio when recovering from a
corrupt pack. In my test, it managed to salvage 247 objects out
of a pack that had 251 objects but without it the command
stopped after extracting 73 objects.

After a failed "git am" attempt:
git apply --reject --verbose .dotest/patch
applies hunks that are applicable and leaves *.rej files the
rejected hunks, and it reports what it is doing. With --index,
files with a rejected hunk do not get their index entries
updated at all, so "git diff" will show the hunks that
successfully got applied.
Without --verbose to remind the user that the patch updated some
other paths cleanly, it is very easy to lose track of the status
of the working tree, so --reject implies --verbose.

In the Windows world ZIP files are better supported than tar files.
Windows even includes built-in support for ZIP files nowadays.
git-zip-tree is similar to git-tar-tree; it creates ZIP files out of
git trees. It stores the commit ID (if available) in a ZIP file comment
which can be extracted by unzip.
There's still quite some room for improvement: this initial version
supports no symlinks, calls write() way too often (three times per file)
and there is no unit test.

By default, git-tar-tree(1) sets file and directories modes to 0666

as the Linux Kernel, it might be excessive for other projects. With
this variable, it becomes possible to tell git-tar-tree(1) to apply
a specific umask to the modes above. The special value "user"
indicates that the user's current umask will be used. This should be
enough for most projects, as it will lead to the same permissions as
git-checkout(1) would use. The default value remains 0, which means

The pack-file format is slightly different from the traditional git
object format, in that it has a much denser binary header encoding.
The traditional format uses an ASCII string with type and length
information, which is somewhat wasteful.
A new object format starts with uncompressed binary header
followed by compressed payload -- this will allow us later to
copy the payload straight to packfiles.
Obviously they cannot be read by older versions of git, so for
now new object files are created with the traditional format.
