Only put bin-wrappers in the PATH (not GIT_EXEC_PATH), to emulate the
default installed user environment, and ensure all the programs run
correctly in such an environment. This is now the default, although
it can be overridden with a --with-dashes test option when running
tests.

It does not make much sense to run the (expensive) valgrind tests and
not look at the output.
To prevent output from scrolling out of reach, the parameter --tee is
implied, too.

When tests are run in parallel and a few tests fail, it does not help
that the output of the terminal is totally confusing, as you rarely know
which test which line came from.
So introduce the option '--tee' which triggers that the output of the
tests will be written to t/test-results/$TEST.out in addition to the
terminal, where $TEST is the basename of the script.
Unfortunately, there seems to be no way to redirect a given file
descriptor to a specified subprocess in POSIX shell, only redirection
to a file is supported via 'exec > $FILE'.
At least with bash, one might think that 'exec >($COMMAND)' would work
as intended, but it does not.
The common way to work around the lack of proper tools support is to
work with named pipes, alas, one of our most beloved platforms does not
really support named pipes. Besides, we would need a pipe for every
script, as the whole point of this patch is to allow parallel execution.
Therefore, we handle the redirection in the following way: when '--tee'
was passed to the test script, the variable GIT_TEST_TEE_STARTED is set
(to avoid triggering that code path again) and the script is started
_again_, in a subshell, redirected to the command "tee".

This patch adds the ability to use valgrind's memcheck tool to
diagnose memory problems in Git while running the test scripts.
It requires valgrind 3.4.0 or newer.
It works by creating symlinks to a valgrind script, which have the same
name as our Git binaries, and then putting that directory in front of
the test script's PATH as well as set GIT_EXEC_PATH to that directory.
Git scripts are symlinked from that directory directly.
That way, Git binaries called by Git scripts are valgrinded, too.
Valgrind can be used by specifying "GIT_TEST_OPTS=--valgrind" in the
make invocation. Any invocation of git that finds any errors under
valgrind will exit with failure code 126. Any valgrind output will go
to the usual stderr channel for tests (i.e., /dev/null, unless -v has
been specified).
If you need to pass options to valgrind -- you might want to run
another tool than memcheck, for example -- you can set the environment
variable GIT_VALGRIND_OPTIONS.
A few default suppressions are included, since libz seems to trigger
quite a few false positives. We'll assume that libz works and that we
can ignore any errors which are reported there.
Note: it is safe to run the valgrind tests in parallel, as the links in
t/valgrind/bin/ are created using proper locking.

Often we just need to add a commit with a given (short) name, that will
be tagged with the same name. Now, relatively complicated graphs can be
constructed easily and in a clear fashion:
test_commit A &&
test_commit B &&
git checkout A &&
test_commit C &&
test_merge D B
will construct this graph:
A - B
\ \
C - D
For simplicity, files whose name is the lower case version of the commit
message (to avoid a warning about ambiguous names) will be committed, with
the corresponding commit messages as contents.
If you need to provide a different file/different contents, you can use
the more explicit form
test_commit $MESSAGE $FILENAME $CONTENTS

Add a --long-tests option to test-lib.sh, which enables tests to
selectively run more exhaustive (longer running, potentially
brute-force) tests. Such exhaustive tests would only be useful if one
works on the specific module that is being tested -- for a general "cd
t/; make" to check whether everything is OK, such exhaustive tests
shouldn't be run by default since the longer it takes to run the
tests, the less often they are actually run.

Originally, test_expect_failure was designed to be the opposite
of test_expect_success, but this was a bad decision. Most tests
run a series of commands that leads to the single command that
needs to be tested, like this:
test_expect_{success,failure} 'test title' '
setup1 &&
setup2 &&
setup3 &&
what is to be tested
'
And expecting a failure exit from the whole sequence misses the
point of writing tests. Your setup$N that are supposed to
succeed may have failed without even reaching what you are
trying to test. The only valid use of test_expect_failure is to
check a trivial single command that is expected to fail, which
is a minority in tests of Porcelain-ish commands.
This large-ish patch rewrites all uses of test_expect_failure to
use test_expect_success and rewrites the condition of what is
tested, like this:
test_expect_success 'test title' '
setup1 &&
setup2 &&
setup3 &&
! this command should fail
'
test_expect_failure is redefined to serve as a reminder that
that test *should* succeed but due to a known breakage in git it
currently does not pass. So if git-foo command should create a
file 'bar' but you discovered a bug that it doesn't, you can
write a test like this:
test_expect_failure 'git-foo should create bar' '
rm -f bar &&
git foo &&
test -f bar
'
This construct acts similar to test_expect_success, but instead
of reporting "ok/FAIL" like test_expect_success does, the
outcome is reported as "FIXED/still broken".

As promised, this is the "big tool rename" patch. The primary differences
since 0.99.6 are:
(1) git-*-script are no more. The commands installed do not
have any such suffix so users do not have to remember if
something is implemented as a shell script or not.
(2) Many command names with 'cache' in them are renamed with
'index' if that is what they mean.
There are backward compatibility symblic links so that you and
Porcelains can keep using the old names, but the backward
compatibility support is expected to be removed in the near
future.

The Makefile in the test suite directory considers any file
matching t[0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9]-*.sh as the top-level test script
to be executed. Unfortunately this was not documented, and the
common test library, t6000-lib.sh was named to match that
pattern. This caused t6000-lib.sh to be called from Makefile as
the top-level program, causing it to leave t/sed.script file
behind. Rename it to t6000lib.sh to prevent this, and document
the naming convention a bit more clearly.
