45bf473a7b git-svn: fix dcommit losing changes when out-of-date from svn
There was a bug in dcommit (and commit-diff) which caused deltas
to be generated against the latest version of the changed file
in a repository, and not the revision we are diffing (the tree)
against locally.

This bug can cause recent changes to the svn repository to be
silently clobbered by git-svn if our repository is out-of-date.

Thanks to Steven Grimm for noticing the bug.

The (few) people using the commit-diff command are now required
to use the -r/--revision argument.  dcommit usage is unchanged.

acca687fa9 git-pickaxe: retire pickaxe
Just make it take over blame's place.  Documentation and command
have all stopped mentioning "git-pickaxe".  The built-in synonym
is left in the command table, so you can still say "git pickaxe",
but it probably is a good idea to retire it as well.

This makes both git-fetch and git-push (fetch-pack and receive-pack)

da093d3750 improve fetch-pack's handling of kept packs
Since functions in fetch-clone.c were only used from fetch-pack.c,
its content has been merged with fetch-pack.c.  This allows for better
coupling of features with much simpler implementations.

One new thing is that the (abscence of) --thin also enforce it on
index-pack now, such that index-pack will abort if a thin pack was
_not_ asked for.

The -k or --keep, when provided twice, now causes the fetched pack
to be left as a kept pack just like receive-pack currently does.
Eventually this will be used to close a race against concurrent
repacking.

fc04c412d8 Teach receive-pack how to keep pack files based on object count.
Since keeping a pushed pack or exploding it into loose objects
should be a local repository decision this teaches receive-pack
to decide if it should call unpack-objects or index-pack --stdin
--fix-thin based on the setting of receive.unpackLimit and the
number of objects contained in the received pack.

If the number of objects (hdr_entries) in the received pack is
below the value of receive.unpackLimit (which is 5000 by default)
then we unpack-objects as we have in the past.

If the hdr_entries >= receive.unpackLimit then we call index-pack and
ask it to include our pid and hostname in the .keep file to make it
easier to identify why a given pack has been kept in the repository.

Currently this leaves every received pack as a kept pack.  We really
don't want that as received packs will tend to be small.  Instead we
want to delete the .keep file automatically after all refs have
been updated.  That is being left as room for future improvement.

fa438a2eb1 make git-push a bit more verbose
Currently git-push displays progress status for the local packing of
objects to send, but nothing once it starts to push it over the
connection.  Having progress status in that later case is especially

parents of that revision without annotating the ancestry of the
lines that were copied from:

b807770924 Teach git-index-pack how to keep a pack file.
To prevent a race condition between `index-pack --stdin` and
`repack -a -d` where the repack deletes the newly created pack
file before any refs are updated to reference objects contained
within it we mark the pack file as one that should be kept.  This
removes it from the list of packs that `repack -a -d` will consider
for removal.

Callers such as `receive-pack` which want to invoke `index-pack`
should use this new --keep option to prevent the newly created pack
and index file pair from being deleted before they have finished any
related ref updates.  Only after all ref updates have been finished
should the associated .keep file be removed.

d5f6a01af0 combine-diff: a few more finishing touches.
"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.
