[PATCH] Add git-verify-pack command. Given a list of <pack>.idx files, this command validates the index file and the corresponding .pack file for consistency. This patch also uses the same validation mechanism in fsck-cache when the --full flag is used. During normal operation, sha1_file.c verifies that a given .idx file matches the .pack file by comparing the SHA1 checksum stored in .idx file and .pack file as a minimum sanity check. We may further want to check the pack signature and version when we map the pack, but that would be a separate patch. Earlier, errors to map a pack file was not flagged fatal but led to a random fatal error later. This version explicitly die()s when such an error is detected.

DESCRIPTION
-----------
Reads given idx file for packed GIT archive created with
git-pack-objects command and verifies idx file and the
corresponding pack file.
OPTIONS
-------
<pack>.idx ...::
The idx files to verify.

-v::
After verifying the pack, show list of objects contained
in the pack. The format used is:
SHA1 type size offset-in-packfile
for objects that are not deltified in the pack, and
SHA1 type size offset-in-packfile depth base-SHA1
for objects that are deltified.
