This changes the output so the list at the top shows the reflog
message, along with their relative timestamps.
You can use --reflog=<n> to show <n> most recent log entries, or
use --reflog=<n>,<b> to show <n> entries going back from the
entry <b>. <b> can be either a number (so --reflog=4,20 shows 4
records starting from @{20}) or a timestamp (e.g. --reflog='4,1 day').
Here is a sample output (with --list option):
$ git show-branch --reflog=10 --list jc/show-reflog

At @{9}, I had a commit to complete 5 patch series, but I wanted
to consolidate two commits that enhances read_ref_at() into one
(they were @{9}^ and @{9}~3), and another two that touch show-branch
into one (@{9} and @{9}~2).
I first saved them with "format-patch -4", and then did a reset
at @{8}. At @{7}, I applied one of them with "am", and then
used "git-apply" on the other one, and amended the commit at
@{6} (so @{6} and @{7} has the same parent). I did not like the
log message, so I amended again at @{5}.
Then I cherry-picked @{9}~2 to create @{3} (the log message
shows that it needs to learn to set GIT_REFLOG_ACTION -- it uses
"git-commit" and the log entry is attributed for it). Another
cherry-pick built @{2} out of @{9}, but what I wanted to do was
to squash these two into one, so I did a "reset HEAD^" at @{1}
and then made the final commit by amending what was at the top.

You can pass an extra argument to the function to receive the
reflog message information. Also when the log does not go back
beyond the point the user asked, the cut-off time and count are
given back to the caller for emitting the error messages as
appropriately.
We could later add configuration for get_sha1_basic() to make it
an error instead of it being just a warning.

Plain integer types without a fixed size can vary between platforms. Even

Its very annoying to need to specify the file content ahead of a
commit and use marks to connect the individual blobs to the commit's
file modification entry, especially if the frontend can't/won't
generate the blob SHA1s itself. Instead it would much easier to
use if we can accept the blob data at the same time as we receive
each file_change line.
Now fast-import accepts 'inline' instead of a mark idnum or blob
SHA1 within the 'M' type file_change command. If an inline is
detected the very next line must be a 'data n' command, supplying
the file data.

Now that its easier to craft test cases (thanks to 'data <<')
we should start to verify fast-import works as expected.
Signed-off-by: Shawn O. Pearce <spearce@spearce.org>
During testing its nice to not have to feed the length of a data
chunk to the 'data' command of fast-import. Instead we would
prefer to be able to establish a data chunk much like shell's <<
operator and use a line delimiter to denote the end of the input.
So now if a data command is started as 'data <<EOF' we will look
for a terminator line containing only the string EOF on that line.
Once found, we stop the data command. Everything between the two
lines is used as the data value.
The 'data <<' syntax is slower than 'data n', as we don't know how
many bytes to expect and instead must grow our buffer on the fly.
It also has the problem that the frontend must use a string which
will not appear on a line by itself in the input, and the data
region will always end in an LF. For these reasons real import
frontends are encouraged to continue to use _only_ 'data n'.

The --objects command line option is rather unnecessary. Internally
we allocate objects in 5000 unit blocks, ensuring that any sort
of malloc overhead is ammortized over the individual objects to
almost nothing. Since most frontends don't know how many objects
they will need for a given import run (and its hard for them to
predict without just doing the run) we probably won't see anyone
using --objects. Further since there's really no major benefit
to using the option, most frontends won't even bother supplying
it even if they could estimate the number of objects. So I'm
removing it.
The --max-objects-per-pack option was probably a mistake to even
have added in the first place. The packfile format is limited
to 4 GiB today; given that objects need at least 3 bytes of data
(and probably need even more) there's no way we are going to exceed
the limit of 1<<32-1 objects before we reach the file size limit.
So I'm removing it (to slightly reduce the complexity of the code)
before anyone gets any wise ideas and tries to use it.

Currently the pack .idx file format uses 32-bit unsigned integers
for the fan-out table and the object offsets. We had previously
defined these as 'unsigned int', but not every system will define
that type to be a 32 bit value. To ensure maximum portability we
should always use 'uint32_t'.
Signed-off-by: Shawn O. Pearce <spearce@spearce.org>
Previously we were using 'unsigned int' to update the hdr_entries
field of the pack header after the file had been completed and
was being hashed. This may not be 32 bits on all platforms.
Instead we want to always uint32_t.
I'm actually cheating here by just using the pack_header like the
rest of Git and letting the struct definition declare the correct
type. Right now that field is still 'unsigned int' (wrong) but a
pending change submitted by Simon 'corecode' Schubert changes it
to uint32_t. After that change is merged in fast-import will do
the right thing all of the time.

This teaches "git-format-patch" to honor the --max-count

Way back when Junio developed the 64 bit index topic he came up
with a means of changing the .idx file format so that older Git
clients would recognize that they don't understand the file and
refuse to read it, while newer clients could tell the difference
between the old-style and new-style .idx files. Unfortunately
this wasn't recorded anywhere.
This change documents how we might go about changing the .idx
file format by using a special signature in the first four bytes.
Credit (and possible blame) goes completely to Junio for thinking
up this technique.
The change also modifies the error message of the current Git code
so that users get a recommendation to upgrade their Git software
should this version or later encounter a new-style .idx which it
cannot process. We already do this for the .pack files, but since
we usually process the .idx files first its important that these
files are recognized and encourage an upgrade.
