The file-scope global variable head_sha1[] was used to hold the object
name of the current HEAD commit (unless we are about to make an initial
commit). Also there is an independent "static int initial_commit".
Fix all the functions on the call-chain that use these two variables to
take a new "(const) struct commit *current_head" argument instead, and
replace their uses, e.g. "if (initial_commit)" becomes "if (!current_head)"
and a reference to "head_sha1" becomes "current_head->object.sha1".

The following sequence of commands reveals an issue with error
reporting of relative paths:
$ mkdir sub
$ cd sub
$ git ls-files --error-unmatch ../bbbbb
error: pathspec 'b' did not match any file(s) known to git.
$ git commit --error-unmatch ../bbbbb
error: pathspec 'b' did not match any file(s) known to git.
This bug is visible only if the normalized path (i.e., the relative
path from the repository root) is longer than the prefix.
Otherwise, the code skips over the normalized path and reads from
an unused memory location which still contains a leftover of the
original command line argument.
So instead, use the existing facilities to deal with relative paths
correctly.
Also fix inconsistency between "checkout" and "commit", e.g.
$ cd Documentation
$ git checkout nosuch.txt
error: pathspec 'Documentation/nosuch.txt' did not match...
$ git commit nosuch.txt
error: pathspec 'nosuch.txt' did not match...
by propagating the prefix down the codepath that reports the error.

In order to do partial commits, git-commit overlays a tree on the
cache and checks pathspecs against the result. Currently, the
overlaying is done using "prefix" which prevents relative pathspecs
with ".." and absolute pathspec from matching when they refer to
files not under "prefix" and absent from the index, but still in
the tree (i.e. files staged for removal).
The point of providing a prefix at all is performance optimization.
If we say there is no common prefix for the files of interest, then
we have to read the entire tree into the index.
But even if we cannot use the working directory as a prefix, we can
still figure out if there is a common prefix for all given paths,
and use that instead. The pathspec_prefix() routine from ls-files.c
does exactly that.
Any use of global variables is removed from pathspec_prefix() so
that it can be called from commit.c.

When "git commit" was rewritten in C (v1.5.4-rc0~78^2~30,
2007-11-08), a subtle bug in --template was introduced. If the
file named by a --template parameter is missing, previously git
would error out with a message:
Commit template file does not exist.
but in the C version the --template parameter gets ignored and
the default template is used.
t7500 has two tests for this case which would have caught it, except
that with the default $EDITOR, the commit message template is left
unmodified, causing 'git commit' to error out and the test to
succeed.

Previously the user was advised to use commit -c CHERRY_PICK_HEAD after
a conflicting cherry-pick. While this would preserve the original
commit's authorship, it would sadly discard cherry-pick's carefully
crafted MERGE_MSG (which contains the list of conflicts as well as the
original commit-id in the case of cherry-pick -x).
On the other hand, if a bare 'commit' were performed, it would preserve
the MERGE_MSG while resetting the authorship.
In other words, there was no way to simultaneously take the authorship
from CHERRY_PICK_HEAD and the commit message from MERGE_MSG.
This change fixes that situation. A bare 'commit' will now take the
authorship from CHERRY_PICK_HEAD and the commit message from MERGE_MSG.
If the user wishes to reset authorship, that must now be done explicitly
via --reset-author.
A side-benefit of passing commit authorship along this way is that we
can eliminate redundant authorship parsing code from revert.c.

When a cherry-pick conflicts git advises:
$ git commit -c <original commit id>
to preserve the original commit message and authorship. Instead, let's
record the original commit id in CHERRY_PICK_HEAD and advise:
$ git commit -c CHERRY_PICK_HEAD
A later patch teaches git to handle the '-c CHERRY_PICK_HEAD' part.
Note that we record CHERRY_PICK_HEAD even in the case where there
are no conflicts so that we may use it to communicate authorship to
commit; this will then allow us to remove set_author_ident_env from
revert.c. However, we do not record CHERRY_PICK_HEAD when --no-commit
is used, as presumably the user intends to further edit the commit
and possibly even cherry-pick additional commits on top.

When determine_author_info() returns to the calling prepare_to_commit(),
we already know the pieces of information necessary to determine what
author ident will be used in the final message, but deferred making a call
to fmt_ident() before the final commit_tree(). Most importantly, we would
open the editor to ask the user to compose the log message before it.
As one important side effect of fmt_ident() is to error out when the given
information is malformed, this resulted in us spawning the editor first
and then refusing to commit due to error, even though we had enough
information to detect the error before starting the editor, which was
annoying.
Move the fmt_ident() call to the end of determine_author_info() where we
have final determination of author info to rectify this.

This option makes it convenient to construct commit messages for use
with 'rebase --autosquash'. The resulting commit message will be
"squash! ..." where "..." is the subject line of the specified commit
message. This option can be used with other commit message options
such as -m, -c, -C and -F.
If an editor is invoked (as with -c or -eF or no message options) the
commit message is seeded with the correctly formatted subject line.
Example usage:
$ git commit --squash HEAD~2
$ git commit --squash HEAD~2 -m "clever comment"
$ git commit --squash HEAD~2 -F msgfile
