[PATCH] Finish initial cut of git-pack-object/git-unpack-object pair.
This finishes the initial round of git-pack-object /
git-unpack-object pair. They are now good enough to be used as
a transport medium:
- Fix delta direction in pack-objects; the original was
computing delta to create the base object from the object to
be squashed, which was quite unfriendly for unpacker ;-).
- Add a script to test the very basics.
- Implement unpacker for both regular and deltified objects.

Add "--depth=N" parameter to git-pack-objects to limit maximum delta depth
It too defaults to 10. A nice round random number.

git-pack-objects: make "--window=x" semantics more logical.
A zero disables delta generation (like before), but we make the window
be one bigger than specified, since we use one entry for the one to be
tested (it used to be that "--window=1" was meaningless, since we'd have
used up the single-entry window with the entry to be tested, and had no
chance of actually ever finding a delta).
The default window remains at 10, but now it really means "test the 10
closest objects", not "test the 9 closest objects".

Anything that generates a delta to see if two objects are close usually
isn't interested in the delta ends up being bigger than some specified
size, and this allows us to stop delta generation early when that

Fix delta "sliding window" code
When Junio fixed the lack of a successful error code from try_delta(),
that uncovered an off-by-one error in the caller.
Also, some testing made it clear that we now find a lot more deltas,
because we used to (incorrectly) break early on bogus "failure"
cases.

[PATCH] fix date parsing for GIT raw commit timestamp format.
Usually all of the match_xxx routines in date.c fill tm
structure assuming that the parsed string talks about local
time, and parse_date routine compensates for it by adjusting the
value with tz offset parsed out separately. However, this logic
does not work well when we feed GIT raw commit timestamp to it,
because what match_digits gets is already in GMT.
A good testcase is:
$ make test-date
$ ./test-date 'Fri Jun 24 16:55:27 2005 -0700' '1119657327 -0700'

git-rev-list: add option to list all objects (not just commits)
When you do
git-rev-list --objects $(git-rev-parse HEAD^..HEAD)
it now lists not only the "commit difference" between the parent of HEAD
and HEAD itself (which is normally just the parent, but in the case of a
merge will be all the newly merged commits), but also all the new tree
and blob objects that weren't in the original.
NOTE! It doesn't walk all the way to the root, so it doesn't do a full
object search in the full old history. Instead, it will only look as
far back in the history as it needs to resolve the commits. Thus, if
the commit reverts a blob (or tree) back to a state much further back in
history, we may end up listing some blobs (or trees) as "new" even
though they exist further back.
Regardless, the list of objects will be a superset (usually exact) list
of objects needed to go from the beginning commit to ending commit.
As a particularly obvious special case,
git-rev-list --objects HEAD
will end up listing every single object that is reachable from the HEAD
commit.
Side note: the objects are sorted by "recency", with commits first.

Do a cross-project merge of Paul Mackerras' gitk visualizer
gitk is really quite incredibly cool, and is great for visualizing what
is going on in a git repository. It's especially useful when you are
looking at what has changed since a particular version, since it
gracefully handles partial trees (and this also avoids the expense of
looking at _all_ changes in a big project).
For example, to see what changed in a merge after a "git pull", do
gitk ORIG_HEAD..
to see only the new things. Or you can simply do "gitk v2.6.12.." to
see what has changed since the v2.6.12 tag etc.
This merge itself is pretty interesting too, since it shows off a
feature of git itself that is incredibly cool: you can merge a
_separate_ git project into another git project. Not only does this
keep all the history of the original project, it also makes it possible
to continue to merge with the original project and the union of the two
projects.
I don't think anybody else can do that.

[PATCH] Parse tags for absent objects
Handle parsing a tag for a non-present object. This adds a function to lookup
an object with lookup_* for * in a string, so that it can get the right storage
based on the "type" line in the tag.

Use git-rev-list --header.
With --header, git-rev-list gives us the contents of the commit
in-line, so we don't need to exec a git-cat-file to get it, and we
don't need the readobj command either.
Also fixed a residual problem with handling the commit that
has a parent listed twice.

Fix typo in git-checkout-script.
The confusion between "revs" vs "refs" caused us to not find the branch
name, which in turn meant that we never switched the HEAD over to it.

Remove MERGE_HEAD in "git checkout/reset"
Both of these scripts will end up resetting the index to some specific
head, and any unresolved merge will be forgotten.

Clean up different special *HEAD handling
We codify the following different heads (in addition to the main "HEAD",
which points to the current branch, of course):
- FETCH_HEAD
Populated by "git fetch"
- ORIG_HEAD
The old HEAD before a "git pull/resolve" (successful or not)
- LAST_MERGE
The HEAD we're currently merging in "git pull/resolve"
- MERGE_HEAD
The previous head of a unresolved "git pull", which gets committed by
a "git commit" after manually resolving the result
We used to have "MERGE_HEAD" be populated directly by the fetch, and we
removed ORIG_HEAD and LAST_MERGE too aggressively.

[PATCH] fix scalability problems with git-deltafy-script
Current version would spin forever and exhaust memory while attempting
to sort all files from all revisions at once, until it dies before even
doing any real work. This is especially noticeable when used on a big

resources and making progress early, as well as including some small

This is useful for doing binary searching for problems. You start with

in between:

and you test that. If that one tests good, you now still have a known
bad case, but two known good points, and you can bisect again:
git-rev-list --bisect bad ^good1 ^good2
and test that point. If that point is bad, you now use that as your
known-bad starting point:
git-rev-list --bisect newbad ^good1 ^good2
and basically at every iteration you shrink your list of commits by
half: you're binary searching for the point where the troubles started,
even though there isn't a nice linear ordering.

Use "-M" instead of "-C" for "git diff" and "git status"
The "C" in "-C" may stand for "Cool", but it's also pretty slow, since
right now it leaves all unmodified files to be tested even if there are
no new files at all. That just ends up being unacceptably slow for big
projects, especially if it's not all in the cache.

git-apply: use default name for mode change patches
Pure mode changes won't have the file-name in the extended header lines,
so make sure we pick it up from the default name from the "diff --git"
line.

Don't use -C in "git diff"
Right now it confuses at least git-diff-files, since it leaves
all the files (whether changed or not) in the diff queue.

Add some installation notes in INSTALL
Jens was the second person who hadn't heard of the "merge" program, and
didn't have it installed. So document as many dependency and install
issues as I can think of.

git-read-tree: fix "--reset" handling
Update tutorial a bit for scripted helpers.
Trivial git script fixups
Fix permissions, and add trivial "reset" and "add" scripts.
The "reset" script just resets the index back to head, while the "add"
script is just a crutch for people used to do "cvs add".

relative to the login directory rather than relative to
