f364cb8823 Use start_command() in git_connect() instead of explicit fork/exec.
The child process handling is delegated to start_command() and
finish_command().

98158e9cfd Change git_connect() to return a struct child_process instead of a pid_t.
This prepares the API of git_connect() and finish_connect() to operate on
a struct child_process. Currently, we just use that object as a placeholder
for the pid that we used to return. A follow-up patch will change the
implementation of git_connect() and finish_connect() to make full use
of the object.

Old code had early-return-on-error checks at the calling sites of
git_connect(), but since git_connect() dies on errors anyway, these checks
were removed.

[sp: Corrected style nit of "conn == NULL" to "!conn"]

ca5bb5d539 Define compat version of mkdtemp for systems lacking it
Solaris 9 doesn't have mkdtemp() so we need to emulate it for the
rsync transport implementation.  Since Solaris 9 is lacking this
function we can also reasonably assume it is not available on
Solaris 8 either.  The new Makfile definition NO_MKDTEMP can be
set to enable the git compat version.

cfa5b2b7fa Avoid scary errors about tagged trees/blobs during git-fetch
This is the same bug as 42a32174b6.
The warning "Object $X is a tree, not a commit" is bogus and is
not relevant here.  If its not a commit we just need to make sure
we don't mark it for merge as we fill out FETCH_HEAD.

da0204df58 fetch: if not fetching from default remote, ignore default merge
When doing "git fetch <remote>" on a remote that does not have the
branch referenced in branch.<current-branch>.merge, git fetch failed.
It failed because it tried to add the "merge" ref to the refs to be
fetched.

Fix that.  And add a test case.

Incidentally, this unconvered a bug in our own test suite, where
"git pull <some-path>" was expected to merge the ref given in the
defaults, even if not pulling from the default remote.

18184f79db Fix 'push --all branch...' error handling
The builtin-fetch topic changed push's handling of --all to setting
the new TRANSPORT_PUSH_ALL flag before starting the push subroutine
for the given transport.  Unfortunately not all references within
builtin-push were changed to test this flag therefore allowing push
to incorrectly accept refspecs and --all.

2e13e5d892 Merge branch 'master' into db/fetch-pack
There's a number of tricky conflicts between master and
this topic right now due to the rewrite of builtin-push.
Junio must have handled these via rerere; I'd rather not
deal with them again so I'm pre-merging master into the
topic.  Besides this topic somehow started to depend on
the strbuf series that was in next, but is now in master.
It no longer compiles on its own without the strbuf API.

If I'm handed a file, then it typically lives outside the
working directory.  git-log only operates on in-tree files,
so the first 'filename' should be an in-tree one, or it should
look at all files.  This patch does the latter, so it would
also find renamed files.  However, it is also slower.

11f2441f05 Add a --dry-run option to git-push.
The default behaviour of git-push is potentially confusing
for new users, since it will push changes that are not on
the current branch. Publishing patches that were still
cooking on a development branch is hard to undo.

It would also be nice to be able to verify the expansion
of refspecs if you've edited them, so that you know
what branches matched on the server.

Adding a --dry-run flag allows the user to experiment
safely and learn how to use git-push properly. Originally
suggested by Steffen Prohaska.

There were a few places which did not cope well without curl.  This
fixes all of them.  We still need to link against the walker.o part

If compiled with NO_CURL=1 we now get the following useful error

  Don't grow the buffer if there is enough space in the first place.
  As a side effect, when the editing is done "in place", we don't grow, so

425b78e886 instaweb: support for Ruby's WEBrick server
running the webrick server with git requires Ruby and Ruby's YAML and
Webrick libraries (both of which come standard with Ruby). nice for
single-user standalone invocations.

the --httpd=webrick option generates a ruby script on the fly to read
httpd.conf options and invoke the web server via library call. this
script is placed in the .git/gitweb directory. it also generates a
shell script in a feeble attempt to invoke ruby in a portable manner,
which assumes that 'ruby' is in the user's $PATH.

0c696fe7f4 Support cvs via git-shell
This adds cvs support to the git-shell; You can now give new users
a restricted git-shell and they still can commit via git's cvs
emulator.

Note that either the gecos information must be accurate, or you must
provide a $HOME/.gitconfig with the appropriate user credentials.
Since the git-shell is too restricted to allow the user to do it
(on purpose!), it is up to the administrator to take care of that.

60fcc2e6ce clear_commit_marks(): avoid deep recursion
Before this patch, clear_commit_marks() recursed for each parent.  This
could be potentially very expensive in terms of stack space.  Probably
the only reason that this did not lead to problems is the fact that we
typically call clear_commit_marks() after marking a relatively small set
of commits.

Use (sort of) a tail recursion instead: first recurse on the parents
other than the first one, and then continue the loop with the first
parent.

7288ed8ebd git add -i: Fix parsing of abbreviated hunk headers
The unified diff format allows one-line ranges to be abbreviated
by omiting the size.  The hunk header "@@ -10,1 +10,1 @@" can be
expressed as "@@ -10 +10 @@", but this wasn't properly parsed in
all cases.

Such abbreviated hunk headers are generated when a one-line change
(add, remove or modify) appears without context; for example
because the file is a one-liner itself or because GIT_DIFF_OPTS
was set to '-u0'.  If the user then runs 'git add -i' and enters
the 'patch' command for that file, perl complains about undefined
variables.

304b5af64f Clean up "git log" format with DIFF_FORMAT_NO_OUTPUT
This fixes an unnecessary empty line that we add to the log message when
we generate diffs, but don't actually end up printing any due to having
DIFF_FORMAT_NO_OUTPUT set.

This can happen with pickaxe or with rename following. The reason is that
we normally add an empty line between the commit and the diff, but we do
that even for the case where we've then suppressed the actual printing of
the diff.

This also updates a couple of tests that assumed the extraneous empty
line would exist at the end of output.

99516e35d0 Fix embarrassing "git log --follow" bug
It turns out that I completely broke "git log --follow" with my recent
patch to revision.c ("Fix revision log diff setup, avoid unnecessary diff
generation", commit b7bb760d5e).

Why? Because --follow obviously requires the diff machinery to function,
exactly the same way pickaxe does.

So everybody is away right now, but considering that nobody even noticed
this bug, I don't think it matters. But for the record, here's the trivial
one-liner fix (well, two, since I also fixed the comment).

Because of the nature of the bug, if you ask for patches when following
(which is one of the things I normally do), the bug is hidden, because
then the request for diff output will automatically also enable the diffs
themselves.

So while "git log --follow <filename>" didn't work, adding a "-p"
magically made it work again even without this fix.

9ff74e95da Don't checkout the full tree if avoidable
In most cases of branching, the tree is copied unmodified from the trunk
to the branch.  When that is done, we can simply start with the parent's
index and apply the changes on the branch as usual.

[ew: rewritten from Steven's original to use SVN::Client instead
     of the command-line svn client.

     Since SVN::Client connects separately, we'll share our
     authentication providers array between our usages of
     SVN::Client and SVN::Ra, too.  Bypassing the high-level
     SVN::Client library can avoid this, but the code will be
     much more complex.  Regardless, any implementation of this
     seems to require restarting a connection to the remote
     server.

     Also of note is that SVN 1.4 and later allows a more
     efficient diff_summary to be done instead of a full diff,
     but since this code is only to support SVN < 1.4.4, we'll
     ignore it for now.]
