quickfetch() calls rev-list to check whether the objects we are about to
fetch are already present in the repo (if so, we can skip the object fetch).
However, when there are many (~1000) refs to be fetched, the rev-list
command line grows larger than the maximum command line size on some systems
(32K in Windows). This causes rev-list to fail, making quickfetch() return
non-zero, which unnecessarily triggers the transport machinery. This somehow
causes fetch to fail with an exit code.
By using the --stdin option to rev-list (and feeding the object list to its
standard input), we prevent the overflow of the rev-list command line,
which causes quickfetch(), and subsequently the overall fetch, to succeed.
However, using rev-list --stdin is not entirely straightforward: rev-list
terminates immediately when encountering an unknown object, which can
trigger SIGPIPE if we are still writing object's to its standard input.
We therefore temporarily ignore SIGPIPE so that the fetch process is not
terminated.
The patch also contains a testcase to verify the fix (note that before
the patch, the testcase would only fail on msysGit).

Don't define _XOPEN_SOURCE
Do define _SGI_SOURCE
Defining _XOPEN_SOURCE prevents many of the common functions and macros
from being defined. _Not_ setting _XOPEN_SOURCE, and instead setting
_SGI_SOURCE, provides all of the XPG4, XPG5, BSD, POSIX functions and
declarations, _BUT_ provides a horribly broken snprintf(). SGI does have
a working snprintf(), but it is only provided when _NO_XOPEN5 evaluates
to zero, and this only happens if _XOPEN_SOURCE is defined which, as
mentioned above, prevents many other common functions and defines.
The broken snprintf will be worked around with SNPRINTF_RETURNS_BOGUS in
the Makefile in a later patch.

The c99 MIPSpro Compiler version 7.4.4m on IRIX 6.5 does not properly
initialize run-time initialized arrays. An array which is initialized with
fewer elements than the length of the array should have the unitialized
elements initialized to zero. This compiler only initializes the remaining
elements when the last element is a static parameter. So work around it
by adding a "NULL" initialization parameter.

This uses the new thread-safe 'threaded_has_symlink_leading_path()'
function to efficiently verify that the whole path leading up to the
filename is a proper path, and does not contain symlinks.
This makes 'ce_uptodate()' a much stronger guarantee: it no longer just
guarantees that the 'lstat()' of the path would match, it also means
that we know that people haven't played games with moving directories
around and covered it up with symlinks.

When a git command executes a subcommand, it uses the "git
foo" form, which relies on finding "git" in the PATH.
Normally this should not be a problem, since the same "git"
that was used to invoke git in the first place will be
found. And if somebody invokes a "git" outside of the PATH
(e.g., by giving its absolute path), this case is already
covered: we put that absolute path onto the front of PATH.
However, if one is using "sudo", then sudo will execute the
"git" from the PATH, but pass along a restricted PATH that
may not contain the original "git" directory. In this case,
executing a subcommand will fail.
To solve this, we put the "git" wrapper itself into the
execdir; this directory is prepended to the PATH when git
starts, so the wrapper will always be found.

Most of the users of "read_directory()" actually want a much simpler
interface than the whole complex (but rather powerful) one.
In fact 'git add' had already largely abstracted out the core interface
issues into a private "fill_directory()" function that was largely
applicable almost as-is to a number of callers. Yes, 'git add' wants to
do some extra work of its own, specific to the add semantics, but we can
easily split that out, and use the core as a generic function.
This function does exactly that, and now that much simplified
'fill_directory()' function can be shared with a number of callers,
while also ensuring that the rather more complex calling conventions of
read_directory() are used by fewer call-sites.
This also makes the 'common_prefix()' helper function private to dir.c,
since all callers are now in that file.

git-format-patch prepends patches with a [PATCH x/n] prefix, but
mailinfo used to remove any number of square-bracket pairs and
the content between them. This prevents one from using a commit
subject like this:
[ and ] must be allowed as input
Removing the square bracket pair from this rather clumsily
constructed subject line loses important information, so we must
take care not to.
This patch causes the subject stripping to stop after it has
encountered one pair of square brackets.
One possible downside of this patch is that the patch-handling
programs will now fail at removing author-added square-brackets
to be removed, such as
[RFC][PATCH x/n]
However, since format-patch only adds one set of square brackets,
this behaviour is quite easily undesrstood and defended while the
previous behaviour is not.

In the case where a program was not found, it was still the task of the
caller to report an error to the user. Usually, this is an interesting case
but only few callers actually reported a specific error (though many call
sites report a generic error message regardless of the cause).
With this change the error is reported by run_command, but since there is
one call site in git.c that does not want that, an option is added to
struct child_process, which is used to turn the error off.

The motivation for this change is that system call failures are serious
errors that should be reported to the user, but only few callers took the
burden to decode the error codes that the functions returned into error
messages.
If at all, then only an unspecific error message was given. A prominent
example is this:
$ git upload-pack . | :
fatal: unable to run 'git-upload-pack'
In this example, git-upload-pack, the external command invoked through the
git wrapper, dies due to SIGPIPE, but the git wrapper does not bother to
report the real cause. In fact, this very error message is copied to the
syslog if git-daemon's client aborts the connection early.
With this change, system call failures are reported immediately after the
failure and only a generic failure code is returned to the caller. In the
above example the error is now to the point:
$ git upload-pack . | :
error: git-upload-pack died of signal
Note that there is no error report if the invoked program terminated with
a non-zero exit code, because it is reasonable to expect that the invoked
program has already reported an error. (But many run_command call sites
nevertheless write a generic error message.)
There was one special return code that was used to identify the case where
run_command failed because the requested program could not be exec'd. This
special case is now treated like a system call failure with errno set to
ENOENT. No error is reported in this case, because the call site in git.c
expects this as a normal result. Therefore, the callers that carefully
decoded the return value still check for this condition.

As a general guideline, functions in git's code return zero to indicate
success and negative values to indicate failure. The run_command family of
functions followed this guideline. But there are actually two different
kinds of failure:
- failures of system calls;
- non-zero exit code of the program that was run.
Usually, a non-zero exit code of the program is a failure and means a
failure to the caller. Except that sometimes it does not. For example, the
exit code of merge programs (e.g. external merge drivers) conveys
information about how the merge failed, and not all exit calls are
actually failures.
Furthermore, the return value of run_command is sometimes used as exit
code by the caller.
This change arranges that the exit code of the program is returned as a
positive value, which can now be regarded as the "result" of the function.
System call failures continue to be reported as negative values.
