First cut at displaying the diffs for a merge.
We display the files where the child differs from the first parent
first in black in the file list window, followed by the second parent
in blue, and so on using different colors for each parent (provided
you don't have more than 6 parents; if you do we cycle around).

Merge git-tools repository under "tools" subdirectory
Thanks to Ryan Anderson for setting me up to do this. I'd have used his
work, but I wanted to clean up the old git-tools repository before
merging it: it had old-style file modes etc that needed a round of
git-convert-cache to fix up.
Prepare git-tools for merging into the main git archive
Rename into a "tools" subdirectory, and change name of "dotest" to "applymbox".
Remove stripspace (which was already copied into git) and cvs2git (which
was likewise already copied into git, and then replaced by a much better
perl version).
All of this was brought on by Ryan Anderson shaming me into it. Thanks.

[PATCH] fetch/pull: short-hand notation for remote repositories.
Since pull and fetch are done often against the same remote
repository repeatedly, keeping the URL to pull from along with
the name of the head to use in $GIT_DIR/branches/$name makes a
lot of sense. Adopt that convention from Cogito, and try to be
compatible when possible; storing a partial URL and completing
it with a trailing path may not be understood by Cogito.
While we are at it, fix pulling a tag. Earlier, we updated only
refs/tags/$tag without updating FETCH_HEAD, and called
resolve-script using a stale (or absent) FETCH_HEAD.

Add "Files" and "Pickaxe" to the find menu.
"Files" matches the find string against each of the files modified
by each commit, and can do exact, case-ignoring or regexp matching.
"Pickaxe" uses git-diff-tree -S'string' and can only do exact
matching. I called it "pickaxe" rather than "find within patch"
since it only finds commits where the string is present in the child
but not the parents or vice versa, and "pickaxe" is what the author
of that feature calls it.

Now, not all projects can be as refined as Linux. Before the final 1.0
release, we went through fifteen 0.99 patchfiles, and pl14 alone went
through subreleases 'a' through 'z'. Now _that_ is a release process.
Not to mention the odd-ball releases, like 0.96c+
Sadly, in this day and age of RPM's etc, we have silly limitations, and
I cannot call this release '0.99pl5a or some such awe-inspiring name
just because "rpmbuild" is such a party pooper. So it's just 0.99.1.
Oh well. Aspiring to such greatness as the Linux release numbering is
hubris anyway. You can attain such perfection only once in your life.
And finally what all of this has been leading up to.
The 2 line code change to record who made a tag,
and the 8 line code change to check that we recorded
the tag.
Gosh the error checking is always so much bigger than the code :)

[PATCH] Add git-var a tool for reading interesting git variables.

git-var allows us to have a set of named values that a shell script can
interrogate and a normal C program can simply call the functions that

git-daemon: re-organize code a bit for --inetd flag
Alexey Nezhdanov sent a patch that made git-daemon usable from inetd (ie
where inetd has already done the accept on the new connection, the fork,
and the setup of stdin/stdout). I wanted to organize the thing slightly
differently, though.
Split up "diff_format" into "format" and "line_termination".
This removes the separate "formats" for name and name-with-zero-
termination.
It also removes the difference between HUMAN and MACHINE formats, and
they both become DIFF_FORMAT_RAW, with the difference being just in the
line and inter-filename termination.
... and make git-diff-files use it too. This all _should_ make the
diffcore-pathspec.c phase unnecessary, since the diff'ers now all do the
path matching early interally.
Start using the partial tree reading in "git-diff-cache"
The reason I say "start using" is that we really should also limit the
index checking by name - now we limit the tree object accesses by name,
but we still check the whole index.
Make "git prune" use the "--full" flag to git-fsck-cache
It's too dangerous not to. We need to follow alternate object
directories etc, or we might say something is unreachable just because
we didn't look it up completely.

Useful for pulling stuff off a dedicated server. Instead of connecting
with ssh or just starting a local pipeline, we connect over TCP to the
other side and try to see if there's a git server listening.
Of course, since I haven't written the git server yet, that will never
happen. But the server really just needs to listen on a port, and
execute a "git-upload-pack" when somebody connects.
(It should read one packet-line, which should be of the format
"git-upload-pack directoryname\n"
and eventually we migth have other commands the server might accept).
git-apply: be a lot more careful when writing files
We write them under another name and rename them to their destination,
so that if something bad happens in the middle, we won't have caused any
bigger harm.
Also, this makes the writing be NFS "intr" safe, and as a side effects
makes sure that if the target is hardlinked (or symlinked) we will have
broken the link.

That way we avoid any confusion with "GNU Interactive Tools", and it's
more descriptive anyway (the rpm documentation talks about how git is
split into a "core" part and an "SCM" part, this makes it clear that
this is the core one).
and it creates a new branch of name <branchname>. If a starting point
is specified, that will be where the branch is created, otherwise it
will be created at the current HEAD.
Make "git checkout" verify that the argument refers to a commit
We still need to create a new branch if it didn't refer to an existing
branch, otherwise our HEAD will continue to point to something totally
different than what we just checked out.
I'll need to think about it. Maybe only do it with "-f" and force it to
the "master" branch?
git-rev-parse: Allow a "zeroth" parent of a commit - the commit itself.
This sounds nonsensical, but it's useful to make sure that the result is
a commit.
For example, "git-rev-parse v2.6.12" will return the _tag_ object for
v2.6.12, but "git-rev-parse v2.6.12^0" will return the _commit_ object
associated with that tag (and v2.6.12^1 will return the first parent).
Also, since the "parent" code will actually parse the commit, this,
together with the "--verify" flag, will verify not only that the result
is a single SHA1, but will also have verified that it's a proper commit
that we can see.
Cut-and-paste dup noticed by Junio. It's not even harmless, since a
match also causes that match to be invalidated, so this made it
impossible to update an existing branch by name.
I'd only tested the case of "ref doesn't exist at all on the other end",
which worked fine.

[PATCH] Dereference tag repeatedly until we get a non-tag.
When we allow a tag object in place of a commit object, we only
dereferenced the given tag once, which causes a tag that points at a tag

This patch makes change to two functions:
- commit.c::lookup_commit_reference() is used by merge-base,

- rev-list uses its own get_commit_reference() to do the same.
