Now there is error() for "library" errors and die() for fatal "application"
errors. usage() is now used strictly only for usage errors.

properly clear the reference count at init time. It happened to work
for me by pure luck.
Until it broke, and my unreferenced commit suddenly looked referenced
again. Fixed.
Which made fsck very quiet about objects it hadn't found. So add
it.
We'll need to make things like these optional, because it's
perfectly ok to have partial history if you don't want it,
and don't want to go backwards. But for development, it's best
to always complain about missing sha1 object files that are
referenced from somewhere else.
This shows that I've lost track of one commit already. Most likely
because I forgot to update the .dircache/HEAD file when doing a
commit, so that the next commit referenced not the top-of-tree, but
the one older commit.
Having dangling commits is fine (in fact, you should always have
at least _one_ dangling commit in the top-of-tree). But it's
good to know about them.
This is totally untested, since we can't actually _write_ things that
way yet, but I'll get to that next, I hope. That should fix the
huge wasted space for kernel-sized tree objects.
Patches from Dave Jones and Ingo Molnar, but since I don't have any
infrastructure in place to use the old patch applicator scripts I
am trying to build up, I ended up fixing the thing by hand instead.
Credit where credit is due, though. Nice to see that people are
taking a look at the project even in this early stage.
