b6945f570a git-repack: repo.usedeltabaseoffset
When configuration variable `repack.UseDeltaBaseOffset` is set
for the repository, the command passes `--delta-base-offset`
option to `git-pack-objects`; this typically results in slightly
smaller packs, but the generated packs are incompatible with
versions of git older than (and including) v1.4.3.

We will make it default to true sometime in the future, but not
for a while.

4e27fb06f0 add commit count options to git-shortlog
This patch does 3 things:

1) Output the number of commits along with the name for each author
   (nice to know for long lists spending more than a screen worth of
   commit lines).

2) Provide a switch (-n) to sort authors according to their number of
   commits instead of author alphabetic order.

3) Provide a switch (-s) to supress commit lines and only keep a
   summary of authors and the number of commits for each of them.

And for good measure a short usage is displayed with -h.

4057deb5de core.logallrefupdates create new log file only for branch heads.
It used to mean "create log file for any ref that is updated",
but now it creates new log files only for branch heads.

The old behaviour made this configuration less useful than
otherwise it would be; automatically creating log file for tags
is almost always not useful.

0ab7befa31 grep --all-match
This lets you say:

	git grep --all-match -e A -e B -e C

to find lines that match A or B or C but limit the matches from
the files that have all of A, B and C.

This is different from

	git grep -e A --and -e B --and -e C

in that the latter looks for a single line that has all of these
at the same time.

Added interpolation values for the IP address, port and
canonical hostname of the server as it is contacted and
named by the client and passed in via the extended args.

Added --listen=host_or_ipaddr option suport.  Renamed port
variable as "listen_port" correspondingly as well.

Documented mutual exclusivity of --inetd option with
    --user, --group, --listen and --port options.

Added compat/inet_pton.c from Paul Vixie as needed.

ac5409e420 update-ref: -d flag and ref creation safety.
This adds -d flag to update-ref to allow safe deletion of ref.
Before deleting it, the command checks if the given <oldvalue>
still matches the value the caller thought the ref contained.

Similarly, it also accepts 0{40} or an empty string as <oldvalue>
to allow safe creation of a new ref.

f7bae37f9a Allow 'svn fetch' on '(no date)' revisions in Subversion.
Added --ignore-nodate to allow 'git svn fetch' to import revisions
from Subversion which have '(no date)' listed as the date of the
revision.  By default 'git svn fetch' will crash with an error
when encountering such a revision.  The user may restart the fetch
operation by adding --ignore-nodate if they want to continue tracking
that repository.

I'm not entirely sure why a centralized version control system such
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)'.

The command now issues a big deprecation warning message and runs
git-archive command with appropriate arguments.

git-tar-tree $tree_ish $base always forces $base to be the leading
directory name, so the --prefix parameter passed internally to
git-archive is a slash appended to it, i.e. "--prefix=$base/".

39345a216f Add git-upload-archive
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.

4df096a5ca Add git-archive
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).

f986f2c830 unpack-objects desperately salvages objects from a corrupt pack
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.

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.

ce1a79b6a7 tar-tree: add the "tar.umask" config option
By default, git-tar-tree(1) sets file and directories modes to 0666
or 0777. While this is both useful and acceptable for projects such
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
world read-write.

93821bd97a sha1_file: add the ability to parse objects in "pack file format"
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.
core.legacyheaders configuration item, when set to false makes
the code write in new format for people to experiment with.

With the change in default, "git add ." on kernel dir is about
twice as fast as before, with only minimal (0.5%) change in
object size. The speed difference is even more noticeable
when committing large files, which is now up to 8 times faster.

The configurability is through setting core.compression = [-1..9]
which maps to the zlib constants; -1 is the default, 0 is no
compression, and 1..9 are various speed/size tradeoffs, 9
being slowest.

7d0c68871a git-merge --squash
Some people tend to do many little commits on a topic branch,
recording all the trials and errors, and when the topic is
reasonably cooked well, would want to record the net effect of
the series as one commit on top of the mainline, removing the
cruft from the history.  The topic is then abandoned or forked
off again from that point at the mainline.

The barebone porcelainish that comes with core git tools does
not officially support such operation, but you can fake it by
using "git pull --no-merge" when such a topic branch is not a
strict superset of the mainline, like this:

	git checkout mainline
	git pull --no-commit . that-topic-branch
	: fix conflicts if any
	rm -f .git/MERGE_HEAD
        git commit -a -m 'consolidated commit log message'
	git branch -f that-topic-branch ;# now fully merged

This however does not work when the topic branch is a fast
forward of the mainline, because normal "git pull" will never
create a merge commit in such a case, and there is nothing
special --no-commit could do to begin with.

This patch introduces a new option, --squash, to support such a
workflow officially in both fast-forward case and true merge
case.  The user-level operation would be the same in both cases:

	git checkout mainline
        git pull --squash . that-topic-branch
        : fix conflicts if any -- naturally, there would be
        : no conflict if fast forward.
	git commit -a -m  'consolidated commit log message'
	git branch -f that-topic-branch ;# now fully merged

When the current branch is already up-to-date with respect to
the other branch, there truly is nothing to do, so the new
option does not have any effect.

This was brought up in #git IRC channel recently.

79ee555bac Check and document the options to prevent mistakes.
When multiple recipients are given to git-send-email on the same

Full and proper parsing of the email addresses so I can detect
which commas mean a new email address is more than I care to implement.

In particular this email address: "bibo,mao" <bibo.mao@intel.com>
must not be treated as two email addresses.

So this patch simply treats all commas in recipient lists as
an error and fails if one is given.

At the same time it documents that git-send-email wants multiple
instances of --cc specified on the command line if you want to
cc multiple recipients.

All should be clear enough, except perhaps committish / commitish.
I just kept the more-used one within the current docs.

efd0201684 git-format-patch: add --output-directory long option again
Additionally notices and complains to an -o option without
directory or a duplicated -o option, -o and --stdout given
together.  Also delays the creation of directory until all
arguments are parsed, so that the command does not leave an
empty directory behind when it exits after seeing an unrelated
invalid option.

[jc: originally from Dennis Stosberg but with minor fixes, and
 documentation updates from Dennis.]
