Follow the "encode minimally" principle -- our tools, including
git-apply and git-status, can handle pathnames with embedded SP just
fine. The only problematic ones are TAB and LF, and we need to quote
the metacharacters introduced for quoting.

This makes it possible to add paths that have funny characters (TAB
and LF) in them, and makes adding many paths more efficient in
general.
New flag "--stdin" to update-index was initially added for different
purpose, but it turns out to be a perfect match for feeding "ls-files
--others -z" output to improve "git add".
It also adds "--verbose" flag to update-index for use with "git add"
command.

Following the list discussion, define two functions, quote_c_style and
unquote_c_style, to help adopting the proposed way for quoting funny
pathname letters for GNU patch. The rule is described in:
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=git&m=112927316408690&w=2
Currently we do not support the leading '!', but we probably should
barf upon seeing it. Rule B4. is interpreted to require always 3
octal digits in \XYZ notation.

Deb packaging claim we depend on patch, but I think we use git-apply
where it matters. When a patch does not apply with git-apply, using
GNU patch still is helpful sometimes. So demote it from "Depends" to
"Suggests".

This patch cleans out all sparse warnings from http-fetch.c
I'm a bit uncomfortable with adding extra #ifdefs to avoid either
'mixing declaration with code' or 'unused variable' warnings, but I
figured that since those functions are already littered with #ifdefs I
might just get away with it. Comments?

This updates git-ls-remote to show SHA1 names of objects that are
referred by tags, in the "ref^{}" notation.
This would make git-findtags (without -t flag) almost trivial.
git-peek-remote . |
sed -ne "s:^$target "'refs/tags/\(.*\)^{}$:\1:p'
Also Pasky could do:
git-ls-remote --tags $remote |
sed -ne 's:\( refs/tags/.*\)^{}$:\1:p'
to find out what object each of the remote tags refers to, and
if he has one locally, run "git-fetch $remote tag $tagname" to
automatically catch up with the upstream tags.
Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
Existing "tagname^0" notation means "dereference tag zero or more
times until you cannot dereference it anymore, and make sure it is a
commit -- otherwise barf". But tags do not necessarily reference
commit objects.
This commit introduces a bit more generalized notation, "ref^{type}".
Existing "ref^0" is a shorthand for "ref^{commit}". If the type
is empty, it just dereferences tags until it hits a non-tag object.
With this, "git-rev-parse --verify 'junio-gpg-pub^{}'" shows the blob
object name -- there is no need to manually read the tag object and
find out the object name anymore.
"git-rev-parse --verify 'HEAD^{tree}'" can be used to find out the
tree object name of the HEAD commit.

Update check_ref_format() function to reject ref names that:
* has a path component that begins with a ".", or
* has a double dots "..", or
* has ASCII control character, "~", "^", ":" or SP, anywhere, or
* ends with a "/".
Use it in 'git-checkout -b', 'git-branch', and 'git-tag' to make sure
that newly created refs are well-formed.

Do our own ctype.h, just to get the sane semantics: we want

This enhances set of revs you can give format-patch.
Originally, format-patch took either one rev, or two revs:
format-patch rev1
format-patch rev1 rev2
The first format was a short-hand for "format-patch rev1 HEAD"
(i.e. rev2==HEAD). What this meant was to find commits that are
in branch rev2 that has not been merged to branch rev1.
The above notation is still supported, but now it takes sequence
of "from1..to1 from2..to2 ...". In short, the second format has
become a short-hand for "format-patch rev1..rev2". Commits in
to1 but not in from1, to2 but not in from2, ... are formatted as
emailable patches.
With this, cherry-picking from other branch can be written as:
git-format-patch -k --stdout master..branch1 master..branch2 |
git-am -k -3
which is generally faster than traditional cherry-pick (which
always did 3-way merge) if patches apply cleanly, and still
falls back on 3-way merge if some of them do not.

This uses the new "--local" flag to git-pack-objects. It currently only
makes a difference together with "-a", since a normal incremental repack
won't pack any packed objects at all (whether local or remote).
Eventually, it might end up skipping any objects that aren't local to
the current object directory, but for now it only knows to skip packed
objects.

This adds the "--local" flag to git-pack-objects, which acts like
"--incremental", except that instead of ignoring all packed objects, it
only ignores objects that are packed and in an alternate object tree.
As a result, it effectively only does a local re-pack: any remote-packed
objects will stay in the alternate object directories.
