The Firefox browser requires that a URL use / to delimit directories.
This is instead of \, as \ gets escaped by the browser into its hex
escape code and then relative URLs are incorrectly resolved, Firefox
no longer sees the directories for what they are. Since we are
handing the browser a true URL, we better use the standard / for
directories.

Solaris 8 was pre-c99, and they weren't willing to commit to
the strtoumax definition according to /usr/include/inttypes.h.
This adds NO_STRTOUMAX and NO_STRTOULL for ancient systems.
If NO_STRTOUMAX is defined, the routine in compat/strtoumax.c
will be used instead. That routine passes its arguments to
strtoull unless NO_STRTOULL is defined. If NO_STRTOULL, then
the routine uses strtoul (unsigned long).

Martin Waitz noticed that git-gui crashed while saving the user's
options out if the application was started in blame mode. This
was caused by the do_save_config procedure invoking reshow_diff
incase the number of context lines was modified by the user.
Because we bypassed main window UI setup to enter blame mode we
did not set many of the globals which were accessed by reshow_diff,
and reading unset variables is an error in Tcl.
Aside from moving the globals to be set earlier, I also modified
reshow_diff to not invoke clear_diff if there is no path currently
in the diff viewer. This way reshow_diff does not crash when in
blame mode due to the $ui_diff command not being defined.

When somebody else extracts git tarball inside a larger project,
'git describe' would reported the version number of that upper
level project.
Sometimes, using the consistent versioning across subdirectories
of a larger project is useful, but it may not always be the
right thing to do.
This changes the script to check ./vertion file first, and then
fall back to "git describe". This way, by default, tarball
distribution will get our own version. If the upper level wants
to use consistent versioning across its subdirectories, its
Makefile can overwrite ./version file to force whatever version
number they want to give us before descending into us.

Subtle bugs remained on both Cygwin and Linux that caused the various
window panes to be restored in positions different than where the user
last placed them. Sergey Vlasov posed a pair of suggested fixes to this,
what is done here is slightly different. The basic fix here involves
a) explicitly remembering and restoring the sash positions for the upper
window, and b) using paneconfigure to redundantly set height and width of
other elements. This redundancy is needed as Cygwin Tcl has a nasty habit
of setting pane sizes to zero if their slaves are not configured with a
specific size, but Linux Tcl does not honor the specific size given.

gitk was saving widget sizes and positions when the main window was
destroyed, which is after all child widgets are destroyed. The cure
is to trap the WM_DELETE_WINDOW event before the gui is torn down. Also,
the saved geometry was captured using "winfo geometry .", rather than
"wm geometry ." Under Linux, these two return different answers and the
latter one is correct.
[jc: credit goes to Brett Schwarz for suggesting the use of "wm protocol";
I also squashed the follow-up patch to remove extraneous -0

The gitk gui layout was completely broken on Cygwin. If gitk was started
without previous geometry in ~/.gitk, the user could drag the window sashes
to get a useable layout. However, if ~/.gitk existed, this was not possible
at all.
The fix was to rewrite makewindow, changing the toplevel containers and
the particular geometry information saved between sessions. Numerous bugs
in both the Cygwin and the Linux Tk versions make this a delicate
balancing act: the version here works in both but many subtle variants
are competely broken in one or the other environment.
Three user visible changes result:
1 - The viewer is fully functional under Cygwin.
2 - The search bar moves from the bottom to the top of the lower left
pane. This was necessary to get around a layout problem on Cygwin.
3 - The window size and position is saved and restored between sessions.
Again, this is necessary to get around a layout problem on Cygwin.

Some distributions are using Git for part of their package
management system, but unpack Git's own source code for
delivery from the .tar.gz. This means that when we walk
up the directory tree with git-describe to locate a Git
repository, the repository we find is for the distribution
and *not* for git-gui. Consequently any tag we might find
there is bogus and does not apply to us.
In this case the version file should always exist and be
readable, as the packager is working from the released
.tar.gz sources. So we should always favor the version
file over anything git-describe guess for us.

were somehow different from the git-gui versions. In actuality
there is no difference at all.
Now we just call our options menu item 'Options...' (skipping the
application name) and our About dialog now always shows git-gui
within the short description (above the copyleft notice) and in

It was pointed out on the git mailing list by Martin Koegler that
we did not show tags as possible things to merge into the current
branch. They actually are, and core Git's Grand Unified Merge
Driver will accept them just like any other commit.
So our merge dialog now requests all refs/heads, refs/remotes and
refs/tags named refs and attempts to match them against the commits
not in HEAD. One complicating factor here is that we must use the
%(*objectname) field when talking about an annotated tag, as they
will not appear in the output of rev-list.

This is a very crude (but hopefully effective) check against the
`git` executable found in our PATH. Some of the subcommands and
options that git-gui requires to be present to operate were created
during the 1.5.0 development cycle, so 1.5 is the minimum version
of git that we can expect to support.
There actually are early releases of 1.5 (e.g. 1.5.0-rc0) that
don't have everything we expect (like `blame --incremental`) but
these are purely academic at this point. 1.5.0 final was tagged
and released just a few hours ago. The release candidates will
(hopefully) fade into the dark quickly.

As we frequently need to execute a Git subcommand and obtain
its returned output we are making heavy use of [exec git foo]
to run foo. As I'm concerned about possibly needing to carry

Here's a patch that I think we can merge right now. There may be
other places that need this, but this at least points out the
three places that read/write working tree files for git
update-index, checkout and diff respectively. That should cover
a lot of it [jc: git-apply uses an entirely different codepath
both for reading and writing].
Some day we can actually implement it. In the meantime, this
points out a place for people to start. We *can* even start with
a really simple "we do CRLF conversion automatically, regardless
of filename" kind of approach, that just look at the data (all
three cases have the _full_ file data already in memory) and
says "ok, this is text, so let's convert to/from DOS format
directly".
THAT somebody can write in ten minutes, and it would already
make git much nicer on a DOS/Windows platform, I suspect.
And it would be totally zero-cost if you just make it a config
option (but please make it dynamic with the _default_ just being
0/1 depending on whether it's UNIX/Windows, just so that UNIX
people can _test_ it easily).
