Fix relative built-in paths to be relative to the command invocation

$(gitexecdir) (as defined in the Makefile) has gained another path
component, but the relative paths in the MINGW section of the Makefile,
which are interpreted relative to it, do not account for it.

Instead of adding another ../ in front of the path, we change the code that
constructs the absolute paths to do it relative to the command's directory,
which is essentially $(bindir). We do it this way because we will also
allow a relative $(gitexecdir) later.

builtin-branch.c: optimize --merged and --no-merged

"git branch --no-merged $commit" used to compute the merge base between
the tip of each and every branch with the named $commit, but this was
wasteful when you have many branches.  Inside append_ref() we literally
ran has_commit() between the tip of the branch and the merge_filter_ref.

Instead, we can let the revision machinery traverse the history as if we
are running:

    $ git rev-list --branches --not $commit

by queueing the tips of branches we encounter as positive refs (this
mimicks the "--branches" option in the above command line) and then
appending the merge_filter_ref commit as a negative one, and finally
calling prepare_revision_walk() to limit the list..

After the traversal is done, branch tips that are reachable from $commit
are painted UNINTERESTING; they are already fully contained in $commit
(i.e. --merged).  Tips that are not painted UNINTERESTING still have
commits that are not reachable from $commit, thus "--no-merged" will show
them.

With an artificial repository that has "master" and 1000 test-$i branches
where they were created by "git branch test-$i master~$i":

at which commit the rebase stopped.

sort_in_topological_order(): avoid setting a commit flag

We used to set the TOPOSORT flag of commits during the topological
sorting, but we can just as well use the member "indegree" for it:
indegree is now incremented by 1 in the cases where the commit used
to have the TOPOSORT flag.

This is the same behavior as before, since indegree could not be
non-zero when TOPOSORT was unset.

Incidentally, this fixes the bug in show-branch where the 8th column
was not shown: show-branch sorts the commits in topological order,
assuming that all the commit flags are available for show-branch's
private matters.

But this was not true: TOPOSORT was identical to the flag corresponding
to the 8th ref.  So the flags for the 8th column were unset by the

16 years ago"needs update" considered harmful
Junio C Hamano [Sun, 20 Jul 2008 07:21:38 +0000 (00:21 -0700)]
"needs update" considered harmful

"git update-index --refresh", "git reset" and "git add --refresh" have
reported paths that have local modifications as "needs update" since the
beginning of git.

Although this is logically correct in that you need to update the index at
that path before you can commit that change, it is now becoming more and
more clear, especially with the continuous push for user friendliness
since 1.5.0 series, that the message is suboptimal.  After all, the change
may be something the user might want to get rid of, and "updating" would
be absolutely a wrong thing to do if that is the case.

I prepared two alternatives to solve this.  Both aim to reword the message
to more neutral "locally modified".

This patch is a more intrusive variant that changes the message for only
Porcelain commands ("add" and "reset") while keeping the plumbing
"update-index" intact.

git-add --all: add all files

People sometimes find that "git add -u && git add ." are 13 keystrokes too
many.  This reduces it by nine.

The support of this has been very low priority for me personally, because
I almost never do "git add ." in a directory with already tracked files,
and in a new directory, there is no point saying "git add -u".

However, for two types of people (that are very different from me), this
mode of operation may make sense and there is no reason to leave it
unsupported.  That is:

 (1) If you are extremely well disciplined and keep perfect .gitignore, it
     always is safe to say "git add ."; or

 (2) If you are extremely undisciplined and do not even know what files
     you created, and you do not very much care what goes in your history,
     it does not matter if "git add ." included everything.

So there it is, although I suspect I will not use it myself, ever.

It will be too much of a change that is against the expectation of the
existing users to allow "git commit -a" to include untracked files, and
it would be inconsistent if we named this new option "-a", so the short
option is "-A".  We _might_ want to later add "git commit -A" but that is

builtin-add.c: restructure the code for maintainability

The implementation of "git add" has four major codepaths that are mutually
exclusive:

 - if "--interactive" or "--patch" is given, spawn "git add--interactive"
   and exit without doing anything else.  Otherwise things are handled
   internally in this C code;

 - if "--update" is given, update the modified files and exit without
   doing anything else;

 - if "--refresh" is given, do refresh and exit without doing anything
   else;

 - otherwise, find the paths that match pathspecs and stage their
   contents.

It led to an unholy mess in the code structure; each of the latter three
codepaths has a separate call to read_cache(), even though they are all
about "read the current index, update it and write it back", and logically
they should read the index once _anyway_.

This cleans up the latter three cases by introducing a pair of helper
variables:

 - "add_new_files" is set if we need to scan the working tree for paths
   that match the pathspec.  This variable is false for "--update" and
   "--refresh", because they only work on already tracked files.

 - "require_pathspec" is set if the user must give at least one pathspec.
   "--update" does not need it but all the other cases do.

This is in preparation for introducing a new option "--all", that does the
equivalent of "git add -u && git add ." (aka "addremove").
