d9b814cc97 Add builtin "git rm" command
This changes semantics very subtly, because it adds a new atomicity
guarantee.

In particular, if you "git rm" several files, it will now do all or
nothing. The old shell-script really looped over the removed files one by
one, and would basically randomly fail in the middle if "-f" was used and
one of the files didn't exist in the working directory.

This C builtin one will not re-write the index after each remove, but
instead remove all files at once. However, that means that if "-f" is used
(to also force removal of the file from the working directory), and some
files have already been removed from the workspace, it won't stop in the
middle in some half-way state like the old one did.

So what happens is that if the _first_ file fails to be removed with "-f",
we abort the whole "git rm". But once we've started removing, we don't
leave anything half done. If some of the other files don't exist, we'll
just ignore errors of removal from the working tree.

This is only an issue with "-f", of course.

I think the new behaviour is strictly an improvement, but perhaps more
importantly, it is _different_. As a special case, the semantics are
identical for the single-file case (which is the only one our test-suite
seems to test).

The other question is what to do with leading directories. The old "git
rm" script didn't do anything, which is somewhat inconsistent. This one
will actually clean up directories that have become empty as a result of
removing the last file, but maybe we want to have a flag to decide the
behaviour?

5010cb5fcc built-in "git grep"
This attempts to set up built-in "git grep" to further reduce
our dependence on the shell, while at the same time optionally
allowing to run grep against object database.  You could do
funky things like these:

	git grep --cached -e pattern	;# grep from index
	git grep -e pattern master	;# or in a rev
	git grep -e pattern master next ;# or in multiple revs
	git grep -e pattern pu^@	;# even like this with an
					;# extension from another topic ;-)
	git grep -e pattern master..next ;# or even from rev ranges
	git grep -e pattern master~20:Documentation
					;# or an arbitrary tree
	git grep -e pattern next:git-commit.sh
        				;# or an arbitrary blob

Right now, it does not understand and/or obey many options grep
should accept, and the pattern must be given with -e option due
to the way the parameter parser is structured, both of which
obviously need to be fixed for usability.

But this is going in the right direction.  The shell script
version is one of the worst Portability offender in the git
barebone Porcelainish; it uses xargs -0 to pass paths around and
shell arrays to sift flags and parameters.

755225de6c git builtin "push"
This adds a builtin "push" command, which is largely just a C'ification of
the "git-push.sh" script.

Now, the reason I did it as a built-in is partly because it's yet another
step on relying less on shell, but it's actually mostly because I've
wanted to be able to push to _multiple_ repositories, and the most obvious
and simplest interface for that would seem be to just have a "remotes"
file that has multiple URL entries.

(For "pull", having multiple entries should either just select the first
one, or you could fall back on the others on failure - your choice).

And quite frankly, it just became too damn messy to do that in shell.
Besides, we actually have a fair amount of infrastructure in C, so it just
wasn't that hard to do.

Of course, this is almost totally untested. It probably doesn't work for
anything but the one trial I threw at it. "Simple" doesn't necessarily
mean "obviously correct".

83aa18eade Fix "git help -a" terminal autosizing
When I split out the builtin commands into their own files, I left the
include of <sys/ioctl.h> in git.c rather than moving it to the file that
needed it (builtin-help.c).

Nobody seems to have noticed, because everything still worked, but because
the TIOCGWINSZ macro was now no longer defined when compiling the
"term_columns()" function, it would no longer automatically notice the
terminal size unless your system used the ancient "COLUMNS" environment
variable approach.

Trivially fixed by just moving the header include to the file that
actually needs it.

1aec7917dc git log: don't do merge diffs by default
I personally prefer "ignore_merges" to be on by default, because quite
often the merge diff is distracting and not interesting. That's true both
with "-p" and with "--stat" output.

If you want output from merges, you can trivially use the "-m", "-c" or
"--cc" flags to tell that you're interested in merges, which also tells
the diff generator what kind of diff to do (for --stat, any of the three
will do, of course, but they differ for plain patches or for
--patch-with-stat).

This trivial patch just removes the two lines that tells "git log" not to
ignore merges. It will still show the commit log message, of course, due
to the "always_show_header" part.

Ok, this was nastier than expected, just because the dependencies between
the different log-printing stuff were absolutely _everywhere_, but here's
a patch that does exactly that.

The patch is not very easy to read, and the "--patch-with-stat" thing is
still broken (it does not call the "show_log()" thing properly for
merges). That's not a new bug. In the new world order it _should_ do
something like

	if (rev->logopt)
		show_log(rev, rev->logopt, "---\n");

but it doesn't. I haven't looked at the --with-stat logic, so I left it
alone.

That said, this patch removes more lines than it adds, and in particular,
the "cmd_log_wc()" loop is now a very clean:

	while ((commit = get_revision(rev)) != NULL) {
		log_tree_commit(rev, commit);
		free(commit->buffer);
		commit->buffer = NULL;
	}

so it doesn't get much prettier than this. All the complexity is entirely
hidden in log-tree.c, and any code that needs to flush the log literally
just needs to do the "if (rev->logopt) show_log(...)" incantation.

I had to make the combined_diff() logic take a "struct rev_info" instead
of just a "struct diff_options", but that part is pretty clean.

This does change "git whatchanged" from using "diff-tree" as the commit
descriptor to "commit", and I changed one of the tests to reflect that new
reality. Otherwise everything still passes, and my other tests look fine
too.

This uses the "--no-walk" flag that I never actually implemented (but I'm

It just refuses to add more interesting parents to the revision walking
history, so you don't actually get any history, you just get the commit
you asked for.

I was going to add "--no-walk" as a real argument flag to git-rev-list
too, but I'm not sure anybody actually needs it. Although it might be
useful for porcelain, so I left the door open.

This splits out init_revisions() call from setup_revisions(), so
that the callers can set different defaults to match the
traditional benaviour.

The rev-list command is still broken in a big way, which is the
topic of next step.

1cd95087c3 Support "git cmd --help" syntax
The "--help" argument is special, in that it is (along with "--version")
in that is taken by the "git" program itself rather than the sub-command,
and thus we've had the syntax "git --help cmd".

However, as anybody who has ever used CVS or some similar devil-spawn
program, it's confusing as h*ll when options before the sub-command act
differently from options after the sub-command, so this quick hack just
makes it acceptable to do "git cmd --help" instead, and get the exact same
result.

It may be hacky, but it's simple and does the trick.

Of course, this does not help if you use one of the non-builtin commands
without using the "git" helper. Ie you won't be getting a man-page just
because you do "git-rev-list --help". Don't expect us to be quite _that_
helpful.

6f4780f9df diff --stat: do not do its own three-dashes.
I missed that "git-diff-* --stat" spits out three-dash separator
on its own without being asked.  Remove it.

When we output commit log followed by diff, perhaps --patch-with-stat,
for downstream consumer, we _would_ want the three-dash between
the message and the diff material, but that logic belongs to the
caller, not diff generator.

cd2bdc5309 Common option parsing for "git log --diff" and friends
This basically does a few things that are sadly somewhat interdependent,
and nontrivial to split out

 - get rid of "struct log_tree_opt"

   The fields in "log_tree_opt" are moved into "struct rev_info", and all
   users of log_tree_opt are changed to use the rev_info struct instead.

 - add the parsing for the log_tree_opt arguments to "setup_revision()"

 - make setup_revision set a flag (revs->diff) if the diff-related
   arguments were used. This allows "git log" to decide whether it wants
   to show diffs or not.

 - make setup_revision() also initialize the diffopt part of rev_info
   (which we had from before, but we just didn't initialize it)

 - make setup_revision() do all the "finishing touches" on it all (it will
   do the proper flag combination logic, and call "diff_setup_done()")

Now, that was the easy and straightforward part.

The slightly more involved part is that some of the programs that want to
use the new-and-improved rev_info parsing don't actually want _commits_,
they may want tree'ish arguments instead. That meant that I had to change
setup_revision() to parse the arguments not into the "revs->commits" list,
but into the "revs->pending_objects" list.

Then, when we do "prepare_revision_walk()", we walk that list, and create
the sorted commit list from there.

This actually cleaned some stuff up, but it's the less obvious part of the
patch, and re-organized the "revision.c" logic somewhat. It actually paves
the way for splitting argument parsing _entirely_ out of "revision.c",
since now the argument parsing really is totally independent of the commit
walking: that didn't use to be true, since there was lots of overlap with
get_commit_reference() handling etc, now the _only_ overlap is the shared
(and trivial) "add_pending_object()" thing.

However, I didn't do that file split, just because I wanted the diff
itself to be smaller, and show the actual changes more clearly. If this
gets accepted, I'll do further cleanups then - that includes the file
split, but also using the new infrastructure to do a nicer "git diff" etc.

Even in this form, it actually ends up removing more lines than it adds.

It's nice to note how simple and straightforward this makes the built-in
"git log" command, even though it continues to support all the diff flags
too. It doesn't get much simpler that this.

I think this is worth merging soonish, because it does allow for future
cleanup and even more sharing of code. However, it obviously touches
"revision.c", which is subtle. I've tested that it passes all the tests we
have, and it passes my "looks sane" detector, but somebody else should
also give it a good look-over.

[jc: squashed the original and three "oops this too" updates, with
 another fix-up.]
