This fixes up a couple of minor issues with the real built-in
diff to be more usable:
- Omit ---/+++ header unless we emit diff output;
- Detect and punt binary diff like GNU does;
- Honor GIT_DIFF_OPTS minimally (only -u<number> and
--unified=<number> are currently supported);
- Omit line count of 1 from "@@ -l,k +m,n @@" hunk header
(i.e. when k == 1 or n == 1)
- Adjust testsuite for the lack of -p support.

This uses a simplified libxdiff setup to generate unified diffs _without_
doing fork/execve of GNU "diff".
This has several huge advantages, for example:
Before:
[torvalds@g5 linux]$ time git diff v2.6.16.. > /dev/null
real 0m24.818s
user 0m13.332s
sys 0m8.664s
After:
[torvalds@g5 linux]$ time git diff v2.6.16.. > /dev/null
real 0m4.563s
user 0m2.944s
sys 0m1.580s
and the fact that this should be a lot more portable (ie we can ignore all
the issues with doing fork/execve under Windows).
Perhaps even more importantly, this allows us to do diffs without actually
ever writing out the git file contents to a temporary file (and without
any of the shell quoting issues on filenames etc etc).
NOTE! THIS PATCH DOES NOT DO THAT OPTIMIZATION YET! I was lazy, and the
current "diff-core" code actually will always write the temp-files,
because it used to be something that you simply had to do. So this current
one actually writes a temp-file like before, and then reads it into memory
again just to do the diff. Stupid.
But if this basic infrastructure is accepted, we can start switching over
diff-core to not write temp-files, which should speed things up even
further, especially when doing big tree-to-tree diffs.
Now, in the interest of full disclosure, I should also point out a few
downsides:
- the libxdiff algorithm is different, and I bet GNU diff has gotten a
lot more testing. And the thing is, generating a diff is not an exact
science - you can get two different diffs (and you will), and they can
both be perfectly valid. So it's not possible to "validate" the
libxdiff output by just comparing it against GNU diff.
- GNU diff does some nice eye-candy, like trying to figure out what the
last function was, and adding that information to the "@@ .." line.
libxdiff doesn't do that.
- The libxdiff thing has some known deficiencies. In particular, it gets
the "\No newline at end of file" case wrong. So this is currently for
the experimental branch only. I hope Davide will help fix it.
That said, I think the huge performance advantage, and the fact that it
integrates better is definitely worth it. But it should go into a
development branch at least due to the missing newline issue.
Technical note: this is based on libxdiff-0.17, but I did some surgery to
get rid of the extraneous fat - stuff that git doesn't need, and seriously
cutting down on mmfile_t, which had much more capabilities than the diff
algorithm either needed or used. In this version, "mmfile_t" is just a
trivial <pointer,length> tuple.
That said, I tried to keep the differences to simple removals, so that you
can do a diff between this and the libxdiff origin, and you'll basically
see just things getting deleted. Even the mmfile_t simplifications are
left in a state where the diffs should be readable.
Apologies to Davide, whom I'd love to get feedback on this all from (I
wrote my own "fill_mmfile()" for the new simpler mmfile_t format: the old
complex format had a helper function for that, but I did my surgery with
the goal in mind that eventually we _should_ just do
mmfile_t mf;
buf = read_sha1_file(sha1, type, &size);
mf->ptr = buf;
mf->size = size;
.. use "mf" directly ..
which was really a nightmare with the old "helpful" mmfile_t, and really
is that easy with the new cut-down interfaces).
[ Btw, as any hawk-eye can see from the diff, this was actually generated
with itself, so it is "self-hosting". That's about all the testing it
has gotten, along with the above kernel diff, which eye-balls correctly,
but shows the newline issue when you double-check it with "git-apply" ]

... to store parts of the path, if possible. This allows us to avoid
writing extended headers in certain cases (long pathes can only be
split at '/' chars).
Also adds a file to the test repo with a 100 chars long directory name.
Even old versions of tar that don't understand POSIX extended headers
should be able to handle this testcase.
Btw.: The longest path in the kernel tree currently has 70 chars.
Together with a 30 chars long prefix this would already cross the
field limit of 100 chars.

... and use it initially to write global extended header records.
Improvements compared to the old write_header():
- Uses a struct ustar_header instead of hardcoded offsets.
- Takes one struct strbuf as path argument instead of a (basedir,
prefix, name) tuple.
- Not only writes the tar header, but also the contents of the
file, if any.
- Does not write directly into the ring buffer. This allows the
code to be layed out more naturally, because there is no more
ordering constraint. Before we had to first finish writing the
extended header, now we can construct the extended and normal
headers in parallel.
- The typeflag parameter has been replaced by (reasonable) magic
values. path == NULL indicates an extended header, additionally
sha1 == NULL means it is a global extended header.

This was triggered by me testing the "@@" numbering shorthand by GNU
patch, which not only showed that git-apply thought it meant the number
was duplicated (when it means that the second number is 1), but my tests
showed than when git-apply mis-understood the number, it would then not
raise an alarm about it if the patch ended early.
Now, this doesn't actually _matter_, since with a three-line context, the
only case that "x,1" will be shorthanded to "x" is when x itself is 1 (in
which case git-apply got it right), but the fact that git-apply would also
silently accept truncated patches was a missed opportunity for additional
sanity-checking.
So make git-apply refuse to look at a patch fragment that ends early.

name of $origin upstream, nor if so how we should decide which
upstream branch is the primary one, but that is more or less
orthogonal to what the clone does here.

When a repository otherwise properly prepared is served by a
dumb HTTP server that sends "No such page" output with 200

message. Hint that they might be dealing with such a server at
the end and suggest running fsck-objects to check if the result
is OK (the pack-fallback code does the right thing in this case
so unless a loose object file was actually corrupt the result
should check OK).
