git-gui: Don't bother showing OS error message about hardlinks
If we failed to create our test hardlink for the first object
we need to link/copy then the only recourse we have is to make
a copy of the objects. Users don't really need to know the OS
details about why the hardlink failed as its usually because
they are crossing filesystem boundaries.

git-gui: Allow users to choose/create/clone a repository
If we are started outside of a git repository than it is likely
the user started us from some sort of desktop shortcut icon in
the operating system. In such a case the user is expecting us to
prompt them to locate the git repository they want to work on,
or to help them make a new repository, or to clone one from an
existing location. This is a very simple wizard that offers the
user one of these three choices.
When we clone a repository we always use the name `master` in the
local repository, even if the remote side does not appear to point
to that name. I chose this as a policy decision. Much of the Git
documentation talks about `master` being the default branch in a
repository and that's what git-init does too. If the remote side
doesn't call its default branch `master` most users just don't care,
they just want to use Git the way the documentation describes.
Rather than relying on the git-clone Porcelain that ships with
git we build the new repository ourselves and then obtain content
by git-fetch. This technique simplifies the entire clone process
to roughly: `git init && git fetch && git pull`. Today we use
three passes with git-fetch; the first pass gets us the bulk of
the objects and the branches, the second pass gets us the tags,
and the final pass gets us the current value of HEAD to initialize
the default branch.
If the source repository is on the local disk we try to use a
hardlink to connect the objects into the new clone as this can
be many times faster than copying the objects or packing them and
passing the data through a pipe to index-pack. Unlike git-clone
we stick to pure Tcl [file link -hard] operation thus avoiding the
need to fork a cpio process to setup the hardlinks. If hardlinks
do not appear to be supported (e.g. filesystem doesn't allow them or
we are crossing filesystem boundaries) we use file copying instead.

git-gui: Support native Win32 Tcl/Tk under Cygwin
Cygwin has been stuck on the 8.4.1 version of Tcl/Tk for quite some
time, even though the main Tcl/Tk distribution is already shipping
an 8.4.15. The problem is Tcl/Tk no longer supports Cygwin so
apparently building the package for Cygwin is now a non-trivial task.
Its actually quite easy to build the native Win32 version of Tcl/Tk
by compiling with the -mno-cygwin flag passed to GCC but this means
we lose all of the "fancy" Cygwin path translations that the Tcl
library was doing for us. This is particularly an issue when we
are trying to start git-gui through the git wrapper as the git
wrapper is passing off a Cygwin path for $0 and Tcl cannot find
the startup script or the library directory.
We now use `cygpath -m -a` to convert the UNIX style paths to Windows
style paths in our startup script if we are building on Cygwin.
Doing so allows either the Cygwin-ized Tcl/Tk 8.4.1 that comes with
Cygwin or a manually built 8.4.15 that is running the pure Win32
implementation to read our script.

git-gui: Disable native platform text selection in "lists"
Sometimes we use a Tk text widget as though it were a listbox.
This happens typically when we want to show an icon to the left
of the text label or just when a text widget is generally a better
choice then the native listbox widget.
In these cases if we want the user to have control over the selection
we implement our own "in_sel" tag that shows the selected region
and we perform our own selection management in the background
via keybindings and mouse bindings. In such uses we don't want
the user to be able to activate the native platform selection by
dragging their mouse through the text widget. Doing so creates a
very confusing display and the user is left wondering what it may
mean to have two different types of selection in the same widget.
Tk doesn't allow us to delete the "sel" tag that it uses internally
to manage the native selection but it will allow us to make it
invisible by setting the tag to have the same display properties
as unselected text. So long as we don't actually use the "sel"
tag for anything in code its effectively invisible.

git-gui: Paper bag fix missing translated strings
The Tcl expression "[append [mc Foo] Bar]" does not return the string
"FooBar" after translation; instead it is setting the variable Foo to
the value Bar, or if Foo is already defined it is appending Bar onto
the end of it. This is *not* what we wanted to have happen here.
Tcl's join function is actually the correct function but its default
joinStr argument is a single space. Unfortunately all of our call
sites do not want an extra space added to their string. So we need
a small wrapper function to make the call to join with an empty
join string. In C this is (roughly) the job of the strcat function.
Since strcat is not yet used at the global level it is a reasonable
name to use here.

git-gui: Font chooser to handle a large number of font families
Simon Sasburg noticed that on X11 if there are more fonts than can
fit in the height of the screen Tk's native tk_optionMenu does not
offer scroll arrows to the user and it is not possible to review
all choices or to select those that are off-screen. On Mac OS X
the tk_optionMenu works properly but is awkward to navigate if the
list is long.
This is a rewrite of our font selection by providing a new modal
dialog that the user can launch from the git-gui Options panel.
The dialog offers the user a scrolling list of fonts in a pane.
An example text shows the user what the font looks like at the size
they have selected. But I have to admit the example pane is less
than ideal. For example in the case of our diff font we really
should show the user an example diff complete with our native diff
syntax coloring.

git-gui: Trim trailing slashes from untracked submodule names
Oddly enough `git ls-files --others` supplies us the name of an
untracked submodule by including the trailing slash but that
same git version will not accept the name with a trailing slash
through `git update-index --stdin`. Stripping off that final
slash character before loading it into our file lists allows
git-gui to stage changes to submodules just like any other file.
This change should give git-gui users some basic submodule support,
but it is strictly at the plumbing level as we do not actually know
about calling the git-submodule porcelain that is a recent addition
to git 1.5.3.

git-gui: Assume untracked directories are Git submodules
If `git ls-files --others` returned us the name of a directory then
it is because Git has decided that this directory itself contains a
valid Git repository and its files shouldn't be listed as untracked
for this repository.
In such a case we should label the object as a Git repository and
not just as a directory.

git-gui: show unstaged symlinks in diff viewer
git-gui has a minor problem with regards to symlinks that point
to directories.
git init
mkdir realdir
ln -s realdir linkdir
git gui
Now clicking on file names in the "unstaged changes" window,
there's a problem coming from the "linkdir" symlink: git-gui
complains with
error reading "file4": illegal operation on a directory
...even though git-gui can add that same symlink to the index just
fine.
This patch fix this by adding a check.

and to only open the path if it is not a symlink.]

Dmitry V. Levin pointed out that on GNU linux libdir is often used
in Makefiles to mean "/usr/lib" or "/usr/lib64", a directory that
is meant to hold platform-specific binary files. Using a different
libdir meaning here in git-gui's Makefile breaks idomatic expressions
like rpm specifile "make libdir=%_libdir".
Originally I asked that the git.git Makefile undefine libdir before
it calls git-gui's own Makefile but it turns out this is very hard
to do, if not impossible. Renaming our libdir to gg_libdir resolves
this case with a minimum amount of fuss on our part.

git-gui: Disable Tk send in all git-gui sessions
The Tk designers blessed us with the "send" command, which on X11
will allow anyone who can connect to your X server to evaluate any
Tcl code they desire within any running Tk process. This is just
plain nuts. If git-gui wants someone running Tcl code within it
then would ask someone to supply that Tcl code to it; waiting for
someone to drop any random Tcl code into us is not fantastic idea.
By renaming send to the empty name the procedure will be removed
from the global namespace and Tk will stop responding to random Tcl
evaluation requests sent through the X server. Since there is no
facility to filter these requests it is unlikely that we will ever
consider enabling this command.

git-gui: Properly set the state of "Stage/Unstage Hunk" action
Today I found yet another way for the "Stage Hunk" and "Unstage
Hunk" context menu actions to leave the wrong state enabled in
the UI. The problem this time was that I connected the state
determination to the value of $::current_diff_side (the side the
diff is from). When the user was last looking at a diff from the
index side and unstages everything the diff panel goes empty, but
the action stayed enabled as we always assumed unstaging was a
valid action.
This change moves the logic for determining when the action is
enabled away from the individual side selection, as they really
are two unrelated concepts.

If the user tried to detach their HEAD while keeping the working

git-gui: Correct starting of git-remote to handle -w option
Current versions of git-remote apparently are passing the -w option
to Perl as part of the shbang line:
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
this caused a problem in git-gui and gave the user a Tcl error with
the message: "git-remote not supported: #!/usr/bin/perl -w".
The fix for this is to treat the shbang line as a Tcl list and look
at the first element only for guessing the executable name. Once
we know the executable name we use the remaining elements (if any
exist) as arguments to the executable, before the script filename.

git-gui: Correct 'git gui blame' in a subdirectory
David Kastrup pointed out that the following sequence was not
working as we had intended:
$ cd lib
$ git gui blame console.tcl
fatal: cannot stat path lib/console.tcl: No such file or directory
The problem here was we disabled the chdir to the root of the
working tree when we are running with a "bare allowed" feature
such as blame or browser, but we still kept the prefix we found via
`git rev-parse --show-prefix`. This caused us to try and look for
the file "console.tcl" within the subdirectory but also include
the subdirectory's own path from the root of the working tree.
This is unlikely to succeed, unless the user just happened to have
a "lib/lib/console.tcl" file in the repository, in which case we
would produce the wrong result.
In the case of a bare repository we shouldn't get back a value from
`rev-parse --show-prefix`, so really $_prefix should only be set
to the non-empty string if we are in a working tree and we are in a
subdirectory of that working tree. If this is true we really want
to always be at the top level of the working tree, as all paths are
accessed as though they were relative to the top of the working tree.
Converting $_prefix to a ../ sequence is a fairly simple approach
to moving up the requisite levels.

git-gui: Refactor diff pane popup support for future improvements
The current popup_diff_menu procedure is somewhat messy as it has a
few duplications of the same logic in each of the different legs of
the routine. We can simplify these by setting a few state variables
in the different legs.
No functional change, just a cleanup to make it easier to implement
future functional changes within this block.

git-gui: Fix "unoptimized loading" to not cause git-gui to crash
If the tclsh command was not available to us at the time we were
"built" our lib/tclIndex just lists all of our library files and
we source all of them at once during startup, rather than trying
to lazily load only the procedures we need. This is a problem as
some of our library code now depends upon the git-version proc,
and that proc is not defined until after the library was fully
loaded.
I'm moving the library loading until after we have determined the
version of git we are talking to, as this ensures that the required
git-reversion procedure is defined before any library code can be
loaded. Since error_popup is defined in the library we instead use
tk_messageBox directly for errors found during the version detection.

git-gui: Paper bag fix "Stage Hunk For Commit" in diff context menu
In a13ee29b975d3a9a012983309e842d942b2bbd44 I totally broke the
"Stage Hunk For Commit" feature by making this menu item always
appear in a disabled state, so it was never invokable. A "teaser
feature", just sitting there taunting the poor user who has become
used to having it available.
The issue caused by a13ee was I added a test to look at the data
in $file_states, but I didn't do that test correctly as it was
always looking at a procedure local $file_states array, which is
not defined, so the test was always true and we always disabled
the menu entry.
Instead we only want to disable the menu entry if the current file
we are looking at has no file state information (git-gui is just a
very confused little process) or it is an untracked file (and we
cannot stage individual hunks).

git-gui: Allow git-merge to use branch names in conflict markers
Earlier when I rewrote the merge implementation for git-gui I broke
it such that the conflict markers for the "theirs" side of the hunk
was using a full SHA-1 ID in hex, rather than the name of the branch
the user had merged. This was because I got paranoid and passed off
the full SHA-1 to git-merge, instead of giving it the reference name
the user saw in the merge dialog.
I'd still like to resolve the SHA-1 upfront in git-gui and always use
that value throughout the merge, but I can't do that until we have a
full implementation of git-merge written in Tcl. Until then its more
important that the conflict markers be useful to the end-user, so we
need to pass off the ref name and not the SHA-1 ID.

On the other hand we cannot clip the username off if the URL is

Junio recently pointed out on the mailing list that our "Add Existing"

the translation was not quite sure what the option meant and therefore
had some trouble selecting the best translation.
I'm changing the menu option to "Add Tracked Files To Commit" and the

Junio recently pointed out on the mailing list that our "Add Existing"
feature is a lot like `git add -u`, which is generally described as
"(Re)Add Tracked Files". This came up during discussion of how to
translate "Add Existing" into Japanese, as the individual working on
the translation was not quite sure what the option meant and therefore
had some trouble selecting the best translation.
I'm changing the menu option to "Add Tracked Files To Commit" and the
button to "Add Tracked". This should help new users to better understand
the actions behind those GUI widgets.

git-gui: Fix unnecessary fast-forward during checkout
If we are trying to checkout a local branch which is matched to a
remote tracking branch, but the local branch is newer than the remote
tracking branch we actually just want to switch to the local branch.
The local branch is "Already up to date".
Unfortunately we tossed away the local branch's commit SHA-1 and kept
the remote tracking branch's SHA-1, which meant that the user lost the
local changes when we updated the working directory. At least we did
not update the local branch ref, so the user's data was still intact.
We now toss the tracking branch's SHA-1 and replace with the local
branch's SHA-1 before the checkout, ensuring that we pass of the right
tree to git-read-tree when we update the working directory.

git-gui: Completely remove my Tools/Migrate hack
This menu option of Tools/Migrate has been living inside of git-gui
as a local hack to support some coworkers of mine. It has no value
to anyone outside of my day-job team and never really should have
been in a release version of git-gui. So I'm pulling it out, so
that nobody else has to deal with this garbage.

git-gui: Internally allow fetch without storing for future pull support
This is actually just an underlying code improvement that has no user
visible component yet. UI improvements to actually fetch and merge via
an arbitrary remote with no tracking branches must still follow to make
this change useful for the end-user.
Our tracking branch specifications are a Tcl list of three components:
- local tracking branch name
- remote name/url
- remote branch name/tag name
This change just makes the first element optional. If it is an empty
string we will run the fetch, but have the value be saved only into the
special .git/FETCH_HEAD, where we can pick it up and use it for this one
time operation.

git-gui: Skip unnecessary read-tree work during checkout
I totally missed this obvious optimization in the checkout code path.
If our current repository HEAD is actually at the commit we are moving
to, and we agreed to perform this switch earlier, then we have no files
to update in the working directory and any stale mtimes are simply not
of consequence right now. We can pretend like we ran a read-tree and
skip right into the post-read-tree work, such as updating the branch
and setting the symbolic-ref.

git-gui: Simplify error case for unsupported merge types
If we are given a merge type we don't understand in checkout_op there
is probably a bug in git-gui somewhere that allowed this unknown merge
strategy to come into this part of the code path. We currently only
recognize three merge types ('none', 'ff' and 'reset') but are going
to be supporting more in the future. Rather than keep editing this
message I'm going with a very generic "Uh, we don't do that!" type of
error.
