"new file" and "deleted file" were already reported in the
original code, but the logic was not as transparent as it could
have. This uses a few variables and more comments to clarify
the flow. The rule is: (1) if a path exists in the merge result
when no parent had it, we report "new" (otherwise it came from
the parents, as opposed to have added by the evil merge). (2) if
the path does not exist in the merge result, it is "deleted".
Since we can say "new" and "deleted", there is no reason not to
follow the /dev/null convention. This fixes it.
Appending function name after @@@ ... @@@ is trivial, so
implement it.

Nobody should create ambiguous refs (i.e. have tag "foobar" and branch
"foobar" at the same time) that need to be disambiguated with these
rules to keep sanity, but the rules are there so document them.

Update example combined diff format to the current version
$ git diff-tree -p -c fec9ebf16c
and provide complete first chunk in example.
Document combined diff format headers: how "diff header" look like,
which of "extended diff headers" are used with combined diff and how
they look like, differences in two-line from-file/to-file header from
non-combined diff format, chunk header format.
It should be noted that combined diff format was designed for quick
_content_ inspection and renames would work correctly to pick which
blobs from each tree to compare but otherwise not reflected in the
output (the pathnames are not shown).

I incorrectly thought this was hopelessly broken in svn 1.4.0,
but now it's just broken in that the old method didn't work. It
looks like svn propdel and svn propset must be used now and the
(imho) more obvious svn rm --force && svn add no longer works.
"make -C t full-svn-test" should now work.

If the commit couldn't have been read, $/ wasn't restored to \n properly,
causing random havoc like git_get_ref_list() returning the ref names with
trailing \n.
Aside of potential confusion in the body of git_search(), no other $/
surprises are hopefully hidden in the code.

This removes trailing blanks from git-generated diff headers
the same way a similar patch did that for GNU diff:

I noticed that a cron-launched "git-clone --quiet" was generating
progress output to standard error -- and thus always spamming me.
The offending output was due to git-clone invoking git-read-tree with
its undocumented -v option.
This change turns off "-v" for --quiet.

Both the git-prune manpage and everday.txt say that git-prune should also prune
unpacked objects that are also found in packs, by running git prune-packed.
Junio thought this was "a regression when prune was rewritten as a built-in."
So modify prune to call prune-packed again.

Supposing that both the base and result sizes were both full size 64-bit
values, their encoding would occupy only 9.2 bytes each. Therefore
inflating 64 bytes is way overkill. Limit it to 20 bytes instead which
should be plenty enough for a couple years to come.

when comparing files with many identical lines.
This was because the hash function used in the library is broken
on 64-bit architectures and caused too many collisions.

This reverts commit 16854571aa.
Git as recent as v1.1.6 do not understand version 3 delta.
v1.2.0 is Ok and I personally would say it is old enough, but
the improvement between version 2 and version 3 delta is not
bit enough to justify breaking older clients.
We should resurrect this later, but when we do so we shold
make it conditional.

the repository argument for git-clone should be relative to $PWD
instead of the given target directory. The old behavior gave us
surprising success and you need a few minute to know why it worked.
GIT_DIR is already exported so no need to cd into $D. And this makes
$PWD for git-fetch-pack, which is the actual command to take the given
repository dir, the same as git-clone.
