This commit adds support for relocatable binaries (called
RUNTIME_PREFIX). Such binaries can be moved together with the
system configuration files to a different directory, as long as the
relative paths from the binary to the configuration files is
preserved. This functionality is essential on Windows where we
deliver git binaries with an installer that allows to freely choose
the installation location.
If RUNTIME_PREFIX is unset we use the static prefix. This will be
the default on Unix. Thus, the behavior on Unix will remain
identical to the old implementation, which used to add the prefix
in the Makefile.
If RUNTIME_PREFIX is set the prefix is computed from the location
of the executable. In this case, system_path() tries to strip
known directories that executables can be located in from the path
of the executable. If the path is successfully stripped it is used
as the prefix. For example, if the executable is
"/msysgit/bin/git" and BINDIR is "bin", then the prefix computed is
"/msysgit".
If the runtime prefix computation fails, we fall back to the static
prefix specified in the makefile. This can be the case if the
executable is not installed at a known location. Note that our
test system sets GIT_CONFIG_NOSYSTEM to tell git to ignore global
configuration files during testing. Hence testing does not trigger
the fall back.
Note that RUNTIME_PREFIX only works on Windows, though adding
support on Unix should not be too hard. The implementation
requires argv0_path to be set to an absolute path. argv0_path must
point to the directory of the executable. We use assert() to
verify this in debug builds. On Windows, the wrapper for main()
(see compat/mingw.h) guarantees that argv0_path is correctly
initialized. On Unix, further work is required before
RUNTIME_PREFIX can be enabled.

This commit prepares the Makefile for relocatable binaries (called
RUNTIME_PREFIX). Such binaries will be able to be moved together
with the system configuration files to a different directory,
requiring to compute the prefix at runtime.
In a first step, we make all paths relative in the Makefile and
teach system_path() to add the prefix instead. We used to compute
absolute paths in the Makefile and passed them to C as defines. We
now pass relative paths to C and call system_path() to add the
prefix at runtime.

If a piece of code wanted to do some cleanup before exiting
(e.g., cleaning up a lockfile or a tempfile), our usual
strategy was to install a signal handler that did something
like this:
do_cleanup(); /* actual work */
signal(signo, SIG_DFL); /* restore previous behavior */
raise(signo); /* deliver signal, killing ourselves */
For a single handler, this works fine. However, if we want
to clean up two _different_ things, we run into a problem.
The most recently installed handler will run, but when it
removes itself as a handler, it doesn't put back the first
handler.
This patch introduces sigchain, a tiny library for handling
a stack of signal handlers. You sigchain_push each handler,
and use sigchain_pop to restore whoever was before you in
the stack.

The install target uses a foreach loop to generate a single long shell
command line to handle installation of the built-in git commands. The
maximum length of the argument list varies by platform, and this use of
foreach quickly grows the length of the argument list. Current git can
exceed the default maximum argument list length on IRIX 6.5 of 20480
depending on the installation path.
Rather than using make's foreach loop to pre-generate the shell command
line, use a shell for-loop and allow the shell to iterate through each of
the built-in commands.

Commit notes are blobs which are shown together with the commit
message. These blobs are taken from the notes ref, which you can
configure by the config variable core.notesRef, which in turn can
be overridden by the environment variable GIT_NOTES_REF.
The notes ref is a branch which contains "files" whose names are
the names of the corresponding commits (i.e. the SHA-1).
The rationale for putting this information into a ref is this: we
want to be able to fetch and possibly union-merge the notes,
maybe even look at the date when a note was introduced, and we
want to store them efficiently together with the other objects.

Both sets of code assume that one specifies a diff profile
as a gitattribute via the "diff=foo" attribute. They then
pull information about that profile from the config as
diff.foo.*.
The code for each is currently completely separate from the
other, which has several disadvantages:
- there is duplication as we maintain code to create and
search the separate lists of external drivers and
funcname patterns
- it is difficult to add new profile options, since it is
unclear where they should go
- the code is difficult to follow, as we rely on the
"check if this file is binary" code to find the funcname
pattern as a side effect. This is the first step in
refactoring the binary-checking code.
This patch factors out these diff profiles into "userdiff"
drivers. A file with "diff=foo" uses the "foo" driver, which
is specified by a single struct.
Note that one major difference between the two pieces of
code is that the funcname patterns are always loaded,
whereas external drivers are loaded only for the "git diff"
porcelain; the new code takes care to retain that situation.

This breaks my build on Solaris 8, as there is no separate

The history of this line is somewhat convoluted. In 2fd955c
(in November 2005), NEEDS_LIBICONV was turned on for all
Solaris builds, claiming to "fix an error in Solaris 10 by
setting NEEDS_LIBICONV".
Later, e15f545 (in February of 2006) claimed that "Solaris
9+ don't need iconv", and moved NEEDS_LIBICONV into a
section for Solaris 8.
Furthermore, Brandon Casey claims in
<5A1KxlhmUIHe8iXPxnXYuNXsq0Yjlbwkz2eBin3z7ELuL9nK-4tSpw@cipher.nrlssc.navy.mil>
that he does not set NEEDS_LIBICONV for Solaris 7.
So either one of those commits is totally wrong, or there is
some other magic going on where some Solaris installs need
it and others don't.
Given Brandon's statement and my problems on Solaris 8 with
NEEDS_LIBICONV, I am inclined to think the first commit was
bogus, and that NEEDS_LIBICONV shouldn't be set for Solaris
at all by default. If somebody wants to use iconv and has
installed it manually, they can set it in their config.mak.

lstat/stat functions in Cygwin are very slow, because they try to emulate
some *nix things that Git does not actually need. This patch adds Win32
specific implementation of these functions for Cygwin.
This implementation handles most situation directly but in some rare cases
it falls back on the implementation provided for Cygwin. This is necessary
for two reasons:
- Cygwin has its own file hierarchy, so absolute paths used in Cygwin is
not suitable to be used Win32 API. cygwin_conv_to_win32_path can not be
used because it automatically dereference Cygwin symbol links, also it
causes extra syscall. Fortunately Git rarely use absolute paths, so we
always use Cygwin implementation for absolute paths.
- Support of symbol links. Cygwin stores symbol links as ordinary using
one of two possible formats. Therefore, the fast implementation falls
back to Cygwin functions if it detects potential use of symbol links.
The speed of this implementation should be the same as mingw_lstat for
common cases, but it is considerable slower when the specified file name
does not exist.
Despite all efforts to make the fast implementation as robust as possible,
it may not work well for some very rare situations. I am aware only one
situation: use Cygwin mount to bind unrelated paths inside repository
together. Therefore, the core.ignoreCygwinFSTricks configuration option is
provided, which controls whether native or Cygwin version of stat is used.

fatter, though.
And MinGW removed git-shell only because of the funny dependencies; there
is no reason to do so anymore.

Some platforms do not have st_blocks member in "struct stat"; mingw
already emulates it by rounding it up to closest 512-byte blocks (even
though it could overcount when a file has holes).
The reason to use the member is only to figure out how many kilobytes the
files occupy on-disk, so give a helper function in git-compat-util.h to
compute this value.

Current Makefile does not allow config.mak to override CC_LD_DYNPATH; it
only lets it affect indirectly via NO_R_TO_GCC_LINKER.
If the command line, config.mak or config.mak.autogen wants to set
CC_LD_DYNPATH differently, we should just allow it.

On platforms with $X, make removes any leftover scripts 'a' from
earlier builds if a new binary 'a.exe' is now built. However, on
cygwin 1.7.0, 'git' and 'git.exe' now consistently name the same file.
Test for file equality before attempting a remove, in order to avoid
nuking just-built binaries.

This adds a make target which can be used to try to execute certain shell
constructs which are required for compiling and running git.
This patch provides a test for the $() notation for command substition
which is used in the Makefile and extensively in the git scripts.
The make target is named in such a way as to be a hint to the user that
SHELL_PATH should be set to an appropriate shell. If the shell command
fails, the user should receive a message similar to the following:
make: *** [please_set_SHELL_PATH_to_a_more_modern_shell] Error 2

This patch splits out git-help's functions to builtin-help.c and leaves
only functions used by other builtins in help.c.
First this removes git-help's functions from libgit which are not
interesting for other builtins, second this makes 'git help help' work
again.

In an earlier commit c70a8d9 (Makefile: Do not install a copy of 'git' in
$(gitexecdir), 2008-07-21), we tried to avoid installing two git, one in
/usr/bin/git and the other in /usr/libexec/git-core/git. It mistakenly
removed the only copy of git when gitexecdir and bindir are set to the
same directory, i.e. the traditional layout.

This is a follow-up patch to 49fa65a (Allow the built-in exec path to be
relative to the command invocation path, 2008-07-23). Without specific
gitexecdir passed from the command line, git-gui's build procedure would
try to figure out the value for it by running an installed git.

If GIT_EXEC_PATH (the macro that is defined in the Makefile) is relative,
it is interpreted relative to the command's invocation path, which usually
is $(bindir).
The Makefile rules were written with the assumption that $(gitexecdir) is
an absolute path. We introduce a separate variable that names the
(absolute) installation directory.

$(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.

The install target needs to check whether the user has opted to make
$(gitexecdir) equal to $(bindir). It did so by a straight string
comparison. Since we are going to allow a relative $(gitexecdir), we have
to normalize paths before comparison, which we do with $(cd there && pwd).
The normalized paths are stored in shell variables. These we can now
reuse in the subsequent install statements, which conveniently shortens
the lines a bit.

There is already a copy in $(bindir). A subsequent patch will enable git
to derive the exec-path from its invocation path. If git is invoked
recursively, the first invocation puts the exec-path into PATH, so that
the recursive invocation would find the instance in the exec-path. This
second instance would again try to derive an exec-path from its invocation
path, but would base its result on the wrong "bindir".
We do install the copy of git first, but remove it later, so that we can
use it as the source of the hardlinks for the builtins.

Makefile records paths to a few programs in GIT-BUILD-OPTIONS file. These
paths need to be quoted twice: once to protect specials from the shell
that runs the generated GIT-BUILD-OPTIONS file, and again to protect them
(and the first level of quoting itself) from the shell that runs the
"echo" inside the Makefile.
You can test this by trying:
$ ln -s /bin/tar "$HOME/Tes' program/tar"
$ make TAR="$HOME/Tes' program/tar" test
