I found a paper thin man page for git-rebase, but was quite happy to
see something much more useful in the usage statement of the script
when I went there to find out how this thing worked. Here it is
cleaned up slightly and expanded a bit into the actual documentation.

- Solaris 9 and up do not need -liconv, so NEEDS_LIBICONV should be set
only for S8.
- Move the declaration of the uname variables to early in the Makefile
so they can be referenced by prefix and gitexecdir variables.
- gitexecdir defaults to being same as bindir, it might as well reference
that variable.

This reads data in the format a (non recursive) ls-tree outputs
and writes a tree object to the object database. The created
tree object name is output to the standard output.
For convenience, the input data does not need to be sorted; the
command sorts the input lines internally.

* jc/ident:
Keep Porcelainish from failing by broken ident after making changes.
Delay "empty ident" errors until they really matter.
Make "empty ident" error message a bit more helpful.
It said "after fixing up, commit the result using -F .msg", but
it was not clear for new people how "fix up" should be done.
Hint "git-update-index <path>".
We could recommend "git commit -a -F .msg" instead, but I am
hesitant to give that suggestion in the blind -- you could do a
cherry-pick, revert or a merge in general in a dirty working
tree as long as local modifications do not overlap with the
merge, but using "commit -a" would include them in the result.

None of these were really show-stoppers (or even triggered)
on most of the trees I've tracked.
* Node change prevention for identically named nodes. This is
a limitation of SVN, but we find the error and exit before
it's passed to SVN so we don't dirty our working tree when our
commit fails. git-svn will exit with an error code 1 if any
of the following conditions are found:
1. a directory is removed and a file of the same name of the
removed directory is created
1a. a file has its parent directory removed and the file is
takes the name of the removed parent directory::
baz/zzz => baz
2. a file is removed and a directory of the same name of the
removed file is created.
2a. a file is moved into a deeper directory that shares the
previous name of the file::
dir/$file => dir/file/$file
Since SVN cannot handle these cases, the user will have to
manually split the commit into several parts.
* --rmdir now handles nested/deep removals. If dir/a/b/c/d/e/file
is removed, and everything else is in the dir/ hierarchy is
otherwise empty, then dir/ will be deleted when file is deleted
from svn and --rmdir specified.
* Always assert that we have written the tree we want to write
on commits. This helped me find several bugs in the symlink
handling code (which as been fixed).
* Several symlink handling fixes. We now refuse to set
permissions on symlinks. We also always unlink a file
if we're going to overwrite it.
* Apply changes in a pre-determined order, so we always have
rename from locations handy before we delete them.

XML::Simple was originally required back when I made svn-arch-mirror
because I needed to explictly track renames with Arch. Then I carried
it over to git-svn because I was afraid somebody could commit an svn
log message that could throw off a non-XML log parser. Then I noticed
the <n> lines column in the header. So, no more XML :)

More liberal sha1 parsing when reading from stdin no longer requires the

The new flag loosens the usual "self containedness" requirment
of packfiles, and sends deltified representation of objects when
we know the other side has the base objects needed to unpack
them. This would help reducing the transfer size.
Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
This goes together with "rev-list --object-edge" change, to feed
pack-objects list of edge commits in addition to the usual
object list. Upon seeing such list, pack-objects loosens the
usual "self contained delta" constraints, and can produce delta
against blobs and trees contained in the edge commits without
storing the delta base objects themselves.
The resulting packfile is not usable in .git/object/packs, but
is a good way to implement "delta-only" transfer.
Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
This new flag is similar to --objects, but causes rev-list to
show list of "uninteresting" commits that appear on the edge
commit prefixed with '-'.
Downstream pack-objects will be changed to take these as hints
to use the trees and blobs contained with them as base objects
of resulting pack, producing an incomplete (not self-contained)
pack.
Such a pack cannot be used in .git/objects/pack (it is prevented
by git-index-pack erroring out if it is fed to git-fetch-pack -k
or git-clone-pack), but would be useful when transferring only
small changes to huge blobs.

"empty ident not allowed" error makes commit-tree fail, so we
are already safer in that we would not end up with commit
objects that have bogus names on the author or committer fields.
However, before commit-tree is called there are already changes
made to the index file and the working tree. The operation can
be resumed after fixing the environment problem, but when this
triggers to a newcomer with unusable gecos, the first question
becomes "what did I lose and how would I recover".
This patch modifies some Porcelainish commands to verify
GIT_COMMITTER_IDENT as soon as we know we are going to make some
commits before doing much damage to prevent confusion.

Previous one warned people upfront to encourage fixing their
environment early, but some people just use repositories and git
tools read-only without making any changes, and in such a case
there is not much point insisting on them having a usable ident.
This round attempts to move the error until either "git-var"
asks for the ident explicitly or "commit-tree" wants to use it.

Fixed a couple of bugs in recovering from broken connections:
The _line() method now returns undef correctly when the connection
is broken instead of falling off the function and returning garbage.
Retries are now reported to stderr and the eventual partially
downloaded file is discarded instead of being appended to.
The "Server gone away" test has been removed, because it was
reachable only if the garbage return bug bit.

This fixes a bug when importing where a directory gets removed/renamed
but is immediately replaced by a file of the same name in the same
changeset.
This fix only applies to the accurate (default) strategy the moment.
This patch should also fix the fast strategy if/when it is updated
to handle the cases that would've triggered this bug.
This bug was originally found in git-svn, but I remembered I did the
same thing with archimport as well.
