[PATCH] Add "git-update-ref" to update the HEAD (or other) ref
This is a careful version of the script stuff that currently just
blindly writes HEAD with a new value.
You can use
git-update-ref HEAD <newhead>
or
git-update-ref HEAD <newhead> <oldhead>
where the latter version verifies that the old value of HEAD matches
oldhead.
It basically allows a "ref" file to be a symbolic pointer to another ref
file by starting with the four-byte header sequence of "ref:".
More importantly, it allows the update of a ref file to follow these
symbolic pointers, whether they are symlinks or these "regular file
symbolic refs".
NOTE! It follows _real_ symlinks only if they start with "refs/":
otherwise it will just try to read them and update them as a regular file
(ie it will allow the filesystem to follow them, but will overwrite such a
symlink to somewhere else with a regular filename).
In general, using
git-update-ref HEAD "$head"
should be a _lot_ safer than doing
echo "$head" > "$GIT_DIR/HEAD"
both from a symlink following standpoint _and_ an error checking
standpoint. The "refs/" rule for symlinks means that symlinks that point
to "outside" the tree are safe: they'll be followed for reading but not
for writing (so we'll never write through a ref symlink to some other
tree, if you have copied a whole archive by creating a symlink tree).

This patch makes git-daemon --verbose log some useful things on stderr -

[PATCH] Fix strange timezone handling
We generate the ASCII representation of our internal date representation
("seconds since 1970, UTC + timezone information") in two different
places.
One of them uses the stupid and obvious way to make sure that it gets the
sexagecimal representation right for negative timezones even if they might
not be exact hours, and the other one depends on the modulus operator
always matching the sign of argument.
Hey, the clever one works. And C90 even specifies that behaviour. But I
had to think about it for a while when I was re-visiting this area, and
even if I didn't have to, it's kind of strange to have two different ways
to print out the same data format.
So use a common helper for this. And select the stupid and straighforward
way.

[PATCH] fetch.c: Remove call to parse_object() from process()
The call to parse_object() in process() is not actually needed - if
the object type is unknown, parse_object() will be called by loop();
if the type is known, the object will be parsed by the appropriate
process_*() function.
After this change blobs which exist locally are no longer parsed,
which gives about 2x CPU usage improvement; the downside is that there
will be no warnings for existing corrupted blobs, but detecting such
corruption is the job of git-fsck-objects, not the fetch programs.
Newly fetched objects are still checked for corruption in http-fetch.c
and ssh-fetch.c (local-fetch.c does not seem to do it, but the removed
parse_object() call would not be reached for new objects anyway).

[PATCH] Return proper error valud from "parse_date()"
Right now we don't return any error value at all from parse_date(), and if

date, but it's a crappy interface, and we might well be better off with an

So let's change the thing to return a negative value if an error occurs,
and the length of the result otherwise (snprintf behaviour: if the buffer
is too small, it returns how big it _would_ have been).

[PATCH] Fix git-init-db creating crap directories.
The base target directory for the templates copying was initialized
to git_dir, but git_dir[len] is not zero but / at the time we do the
initialization. This is not what we want for our target directory string
since we pass it to mkdir(), so make it zero-terminated manually.

[PATCH] Remove total confusion from "git checkout"
The target to check out does not need to be a branch. The _result_ of the
checkout needs to be a branch. Don't confuse the two, and then insult the
user.
Insulting is ok, but I personally get really pissed off is a tool is both
confused and insulting. At least be _correct_ and insulting.

[PATCH] Improved "git add"
This fixes everybodys favourite complaint about "git add", namely that it
doesn't take directories.
We use "git-ls-files --others" to generate an arbitrary list of filenames,
and thus also automatically honor ignore-files while we're at it.
Side note: there's a lot of room for improvement here. In particular, if
we have a long list of filenames (importing a big archive), this will just
do a big stupid for-loop and add them one at a time. Maybe it should use
generate-list | xargs -0 git-update-idex --add --
instead.
Also, I think we should have a default ignore list if we don't find a
.git/info/exclude file. Ignoring "*.o" and ".*" by default would probably
be the right thing to do.
But I think this is a good first step.
Use the "-n" flag to just show the list of files to be added without
adding them.

[PATCH] Add "--git-dir" flag to git-rev-parse

Improve the safety check used in fetch.c
The recent safety check to trust only the commits we have made
things impossibly slow and turn out to waste a lot of memory.
This commit fixes it with the following improvements:
- mark already scanned objects and avoid rescanning the same
object again;
- free the tree entries when we have scanned the tree entries;
this is the same as b0d8923ec01fd91b75ab079034f89ced91500157
which reduced memory usage by rev-list;
- plug memory leak from the object_list dequeuing code;
- use the process_queue not just for fetching but for scanning,
to make things tail recursive to avoid deep recursion; the
deep recursion was especially prominent when we cloned a big
pack.
- avoid has_sha1_file() call when we already know we do not have
that object.

Archive-destroying "git repack -a -d" bug.
Using "git repack -a -d" can destroy your git archive if you use it
twice in succession, because the new pack can be called the same as
the old pack. Found by Linus.

Do not fail after calling bisect_auto_next()
As a convenience measure, 'bisect bad' or 'bisect good' automatically
does 'bisect next' when it knows it can, but the result of that test
to see if it can was leaking through as the exit code from the whole
thing, which was bad. Noticed by Anton Blanchard.
