If a svn:mergeinfo range starts at a commit that was converted as a
git root commit (e.g., r1 or a branch that was created out of thin
air), then there is an error when git-svn tries to run
git rev-list "$bottom_commit^..$top_commit"
because $bottom_commit (the git commit corresponding to r1) has no
parent.

Currently start/restart does not generate any configuration files for
spawning a new instance. This means that
$ git instaweb --http=<server> --start
might pick up stale 'httpd.conf' file for a different web server
(e.g. for default lighttpd when requesting apache2).
This commit changes that, and makes git-instaweb generate web server
config file and/or gitweb config file if don't exists.
This required naming config files after the name of web server
(alternate solution would be to somehow mark for which web server was
config file generated).
Note that web servers that embed configuration in server script file,
namely webrick and plackup, and which delete "$conf" in their *_conf
function, would have their config (server script) always regenerated.
Note: this commit introduces a bit of code repetition (but only a few
lines).

As a nice side-effect now the order of parameters does not matter:
$ git instaweb --httpd=apache2 --start
is now (after this patch) the same as
$ git instaweb --start --httpd=apache2
Before this commit --start, --stop, --restart (and their subcommand
versions start, stop, restart) exited immediately.
This is preparatory work for making start/restart check that correct
configuration is set up; this change was required to have access in
start_httpd to requested web browser etc.

It was correct to say "The file $GIT_DIR/refs/heads/master stores the
commit object name at the tip of the master branch" in the older days,
but not anymore, as refs can be packed into $GIT_DIR/packed-refs file.
Update the document to talk in terms of a more abstract concept "ref" and
"symbolic ref" where we are not describing the underlying implementation
detail.
This on purpose leaves two instances of $GIT_DIR/ in the git-remote
documentation; they do talk about $GIT_DIR/remotes/ and $GIT_DIR/branches/
file hierarchy that used to be the place to store configuration around
remotes before the configuration mechanism took them over.

Clone does all of init, "remote add", fetch, and checkout
without giving the user a chance to intervene and set any
configuration. This patch allows you to set config options
in the newly created repository after the clone, but before
we do any other operations.
In many cases, this is a minor convenience over something
like:
git clone git://...
git config core.whatever true
But in some cases, it can bring extra efficiency by changing
how the fetch or checkout work. For example, setting
line-ending config before the checkout avoids having to
re-checkout all of the contents with the correct line
endings.
It also provides a mechanism for passing information to remote
helpers during a clone; the helpers may read the git config
to influence how they operate.

The error handling for git_config is somewhat confusing. We
collect errors from running git_config_from_file on the
various config files and carefully pass them back up. But
the two odd things are:
1. We actually die on most errors in git_config_from_file.
In fact, the only error we actually pass back up is if
fopen() fails on the file.
2. Most callers of git_config do not check the error
return at all, but will continue if git_config reports
an error.
When the code for "git -c core.foo=bar" was added, it
dutifully passed errors up the call stack, only for them to
be eventually ignored. This makes it inconsistent with the
file-parsing code, which will die when it sees malformed
config. And it's somewhat unsafe, because it means an error
in parsing a typo like:
git -c clean.requireforce=ture clean
will continue the command, ignoring the config the user
tried to give.

If you do something like:
git -c core.foo="value with = in it" ...
we would split your option on "=" into three fields and
throw away the third one. With this patch we correctly take
everything after the first "=" as the value (keys cannot
have an equals sign in them, so the parsing is unambiguous).

Sometimes when splitting, you only want a limited number of
fields, and for the final field to contain "everything
else", even if it includes the delimiter.
This patch introduces strbuf_split_max, which provides a
"max number of fields" parameter; it behaves similarly to
perl's "split" with a 3rd field.
The existing 2-argument form of strbuf_split is retained for
compatibility and ease-of-use.

Add a gcc profile feedback build option "profile-all" to the main
Makefile. It simply runs the test suite to generate feedback data and the
recompiles the main executables with that. The basic structure is similar
to the existing gcov code.
gcc is often able to generate better code with profile feedback data. The
training load also doesn't need to be too similar to the actual load, it
still gives benefits.
The test suite run is unfortunately quite long. It would be good to find a
suitable subset that runs faster and still gives reasonable feedback.
For now the test suite runs single threaded (I had some trouble running
the test suite with -jX)
I tested it with git gc and git blame kernel/sched.c on a Linux kernel
tree. For gc I get about 2.7% improvement in wall clock time by using the
feedback build, for blame about 2.4%. That's not gigantic, but not shabby
either for a very small patch.
If anyone has any favourite CPU intensive git benchmarks feel free to try
them too.
I hope distributors will switch to use a feedback build in their packages.

Earlier 7974843 (compat/cygwin.c: make runtime detection of lstat/stat
lessor impact, 2008-10-23) fixed the low-level "do we use cygwin specific
hacks for stat/lstat?" logic not to call into git_default_config() from
random codepaths that are typically very late in the program, to prevent
the call from potentially overwriting other variables that are initialized
from the configuration.
However, it forgot that on Cygwin, trust-executable-bit should default to
true.

Until now, "git tag -l foo* bar*" would silently ignore the
second argument, showing only refs starting with "foo". It's
not just unfriendly not to take a second pattern; we
actually generated subtly wrong results (from the user's
perspective) because some of the requested tags were
omitted.
This patch allows an arbitrary number of patterns on the
command line; if any of them matches, the ref is shown.
While we're tweaking the documentation, let's also make it

Consider this graph:
D---E (topic, HEAD)
/ /
A---B---C (master)
\
F (topic2)
and the following three commands:
1. git rebase -i -p A
2. git rebase -i -p --onto F A
3. git rebase -i -p B
Currently, (1) and (2) will pick B, D, C, and E onto A and F,
respectively. However, (3) will only pick D and E onto B, but not C,
which is inconsistent with (1) and (2). As a result, we cannot modify C
during the interactive-rebase.
The current behavior also creates a bug if we do:
4. git rebase -i -p C
In (4), E is never picked. And since interactive-rebase resets "HEAD"
to "onto" before picking any commits, D and E are lost after the
interactive-rebase.
This patch fixes the inconsistency and bug by ensuring that all children
of upstream are always picked. This essentially reverts the commit:
d80d6bc146
When compiling the todo list, commits reachable from "upstream" should
never be skipped under any conditions. Otherwise, we lose the ability
to modify them like (3), and create a bug like (4).
Two of the tests contain a scenario like (3). Since the new behavior
added more commits for picking, these tests need to be updated to
account for the additional pick lines. A new test has also been added
for (4).

When we run tests under valgrind, we symlink anything
executable that starts with git-* or test-* into a special
valgrind bin directory, and then make that our
GIT_EXEC_PATH.
However, shell libraries like git-sh-setup do not have the
executable bit marked, and did not get symlinked. This
means that any test looking for shell libraries in our
exec-path would fail to find them, even though that is a
fine thing to do when testing against a regular git build
(or in a git install, for that matter).
t2300 demonstrated this problem. The fix is to symlink these
shell libraries directly into the valgrind directory.

The valgrind target just reinvokes make with GIT_TEST_OPTS
set to "--valgrind". However, it does this using an
environment variable, which means GIT_TEST_OPTS in your
config.mak would override it, and "make valgrind" would
simply run the test suite without valgrind on.
Instead, we should pass GIT_TEST_OPTS on the command-line,
overriding what's in config.mak, and take care to append to
whatever the user has there already.
