With skip-worktree bit, you can manually set it to unwanted files,
then remove them: you would have the so-called sparse checkout. The
disadvantages are:
- Porcelain tools are not aware of this. Everytime you do an
operation that may update working directory, skip-worktree may be
cleared out. You have to set them again.
- You still have to remove skip-worktree'd files manually, which is
boring and ineffective.
These will be addressed in the following patches. This patch gives an
idea what is "sparse checkout" in Documentation/git-read-tree.txt.
This file is chosen instead of git-checkout.txt because it is quite
technical and user-unfriendly. I'd expect git-checkout.txt to have
something when Porcelain support is done.

Index does not really have "directories", attempts to match "foo/"
against index will fail unless someone tries to reconstruct directories
from a list of file.
Observing that dtype in this function can never be NULL (otherwise
it would segfault), dtype NULL will be used to say "hey.. you are
matching against index" and behave properly.

This adds index as a prerequisite for directory listing (with
exclude). At the moment directory listing is used by "git clean",
"git add", "git ls-files" and "git status"/"git commit" and
unpack_trees()-related commands. These commands have been
checked/modified to populate index before doing directory listing.
add_excludes_from_file() does not enable this feature, because it
is used to read .git/info/exclude and some explicit files specified
by "git ls-files".

The tests generate a large amount of I/O activity creating
and destroying repositories and files. We can improve the
time it takes to run the test suite by creating trash
directories on filesystems with better performance
characteristic, even though we may not want the rest of the
git repository on those filesystems (e.g., because they are
not network connected, or because they are temporary
ramdisks).
For example, on a dual processor system:
$ cd t && time make -j32
real 1m51.562s
user 0m59.260s
sys 1m20.933s
# /dev/shm is tmpfs
$ cd t && time make -j32 GIT_TEST_OPTS="--root=/dev/shm"
real 1m1.484s
user 0m53.555s
sys 1m5.264s
We almost halve the wall clock time, and we utilize the
dual processors much better.

Most scripts don't care about the absolute path to the trash
directory. The one exception was t4014 script, which pieced
together $TEST_DIRECTORY and $test itself to get an absolute
directory.
Instead, let's provide a $TRASH_DIRECTORY which specifies
the same thing. This keeps the $test variable internal to
test-lib.sh and paves the way for trash directories in other
locations.

The $TEST_DIRECTORY variable allows tests to find the
top-level test directory regardless of the current working
directory.
In the past, this has been used to accomodate tests which
change directories, but it is also the first step to being
able to move trash directories outside of the
$TEST_DIRECTORY hierarchy.

When making a histogram of delta chain length in the pack, the program
collects number of objects whose delta depth exceeds the MAX_CHAIN limit
in histogram[0], and showed it as the number of items that exceeds the
limit correctly. HOWEVER, it also showed the same number labeled as
"chain length = 0".
In fact, we are not showing the number of objects whose chain length is
zero, i.e. the base objects. Correct this.

We traditionally allowed a mbox file or a directory name of a maildir (but
never an individual file inside a maildir) to be given to "git am". Even
though an individual file in a maildir (or more generally, a piece of
RFC2822 e-mail) is not a mbox file, it contains enough information to
create a commit out of it, so there is no reason to reject one. Running
mailsplit on such a file feels stupid, but it does not hurt.
This builds on top of a5a6755 (git-am foreign patch support: introduce
patch_format, 2009-05-27) that introduced mailbox format detection. The
codepath to deal with a mbox requires it to begin with "From " line and
also allows it to begin with "From: ", but a random piece of e-mail can
and often do begin with any valid RFC2822 header lines.
Instead of checking the first line, we extract all the lines up to the
first empty line, and make sure they look like e-mail headers.
A test is added to t4150 to demonstrate this feature.
