We start the pager too early for several git commands, which results in
the errors sometimes going to the pager rather than show up as errors.
This is often hidden by the fact that we pass in '-X' to less by default,
which causes 'less' to exit for small output, but if you do
export LESS=-S
you can then clearly see the problem by doing
git log --prretty
which shows the error message ("fatal: unrecognized argument: --prretty")
being sent to the pager.
This happens for pretty much all git commands that use USE_PAGER, and then
check arguments separately. But "git diff" does it too early too (even
though it does an explicit setup_pager() call)
This only fixes it for the trivial "git log" family case.

This commit introduces tests that verify that rev-parse
parses master@{n} correctly for various values of n less
than, equal to and greater than the number of revisions
in the reference log.
In particular, these tests check that rev-parse exits with a

following form to stderr.
fatal: Log for [^ ]* only has [0-9][0-9]* entries.

Git uses the "-c foo=bar" parameters to set a config
variable for a single git invocation. We currently do this
by making a list in the current process and consulting that
list in git_config.
This works fine for built-ins, but the config changes are
silently ignored by subprocesses, including dashed externals
and invocations to "git config" from shell scripts.
This patch instead puts them in an environment variable
which we consult when looking at config (both internally and
via calls "git config").

When people try insane things such as delta-compressing 4GiB files, they
get this assertion:
diff-delta.c:285: create_delta_index: Assertion `packed_entry - (struct index_entry *)mem == entries' failed.
This happens because:
1) the 'entries' variable is an unsigned int
2) it is assigned with entries = (bufsize - 1) / RABIN_WINDOW
(that itself is not a problem unless bufsize > 4G * RABIN_WINDOW)
3) the buffer is indexed from top to bottom starting at
"data = buffer + entries * RABIN_WINDOW" and the multiplication
here does indeed overflows, making the resulting top of the buffer
much lower than expected.
This makes the number of actually produced index entries smaller than
what was computed initially, hence the assertion.
Furthermore, the current delta encoding format cannot represent offsets
into a reference buffer with more than 32 bits anyway. So let's just
limit the number of entries to what the delta format can encode.

This commit refactors git stash show to make use of the assert_stash_like function.
git show now dies if the presented argument is non-stash-like.
Previous behaviour was to tolerate commits that were not even stash-like.
Previously, git stash show would accept stash-like arguments, but
only if there was a stash on the stack.
Now, git stash accepts stash-like arguments always and only fails
if no stash-like argument is specified and there is no stash stack.

This patch teaches git stash branch to tolerate stash-like arguments.
In particular, a stash is only required if an argument isn't specified
and the stash is only dropped if a stash entry reference was
specified or implied.
The implementation has been simplified by taking advantage of

parse_flags_and_rev().

git stash pop is abstracted into its own implementation function - pop_stash.
The behaviour is changed so that git stash pop fails early if the
the specified stash reference does not exist or does not refer to
an extant entry in the reflog of the reference stash.
This fixes the case where the apply succeeds, but the drop fails.
Previously this caused caused git stash pop to exit with a non-zero exit code
and a dirty tree.
Now, git stash pop fails with a non-zero exit code, but the working
tree is not modified.

Previously, git stash drop would fail noisily while executing git reflog
delete if the specified revision was not a stash reference.
Now, git stash drop fails with an error message which more precisely
indicates the reason for failure.
Furthermore, git stash drop will now fail with a non-zero status code
if stash@{n} specifies a stash log entry that does not actually exist.
This change in behaviour is achieved by delegating argument parsing
to the common parse_flags_and_rev() function (via a call to
assert_stash_ref).

Introduce parse_flags_and_revs. This function requires that
there is at most one stash-like revision parameter and
zero or more flags.
It knows how to parse -q,--quiet and --index flags, but leaves
other flags parsed.
Specified revisions are checked to see that they are at
least stash-like (meaning: they look like something created
by git stash save or git stash create).
If this is so, then IS_STASH_LIKE is initialized to a non-empty value.
If the specified revision also looks like a stash log entry reference,
then IS_STASH_REF is initialized to a non-empty value.
References of the form ref@{spec} are required to precisely identify
an individual commit.
If no reference is specified, stash@{0} is assumed.
Once the specified reference is validated to be at least stash_like
an ensemble of derived variables, (w_commit, w_tree, b_commit, etc)
is initialized with a single call to git rev-parse.
Repeated calls to parse_flags_and_rev() avoid repeated calls
to git rev-parse if the specified arguments have already been
parsed.
Subsequent patches in the series modify the existing
git stash subcommands to make use of these functions
as appropriate.
An ensemble of supporting functions that make use of the state
established by parse_flags_and_rev(). These are described below:
The ancillary functions are:
is_stash_like(): which can be used to test
whether a specified commit looks like a commit created with
git stash save or git stash create.
assert_stash_like(): which can be used by
commands that misbehave unless their arguments stash-like.
is_stash_ref(): which checks whether an argument
is valid stash reference(e.g. is of the form
['refs/']stash['@{'something'}])
assert_stash_ref(): which can be used by commands
that misbehave unless their arguments are both stash-like and
refer to valid stash entries.

To discover filenames from the --- and +++ lines in a traditional
unified diff, currently "git apply" scans forward for a whitespace
character on each line and stops there. It can't use the whole line
because "diff -u" likes to include timestamps, like so:
--- foo 2000-07-12 16:56:50.020000414 -0500
+++ bar 2010-07-12 16:56:50.020000414 -0500
The whitespace-seeking heuristic works great, even when the tab
has been converted to spaces by some email + copy-and-paste
related corruption.
Except for one problem: if the filename itself contains whitespace,
the inferred filename will be too short.
When Giuseppe ran into this problem, it was for a file creation
patch (for debian/licenses/LICENSE.global BSD-style Chromium).
So one can't use the list of files present in the index to deduce an
appropriate filename (not to mention that way lies madness; see
v0.99~402, 2005-05-31).
Instead, look for a timestamp and use that if present to mark the end
of the filename. If no timestamp is present, the old heuristic is
used, with one exception: the space character \040 is not considered
terminating whitespace any more unless it is followed by a timestamp.

Check that "git apply" can cope with strange filenames, particularly
filenames with spaces.
Not all platforms have a sane enough diff -u and expand to
reliably create the such patches and maybe future versions of GNU
diff will handle funny characters differently, so this uses
pre-generated patches. The script used to generate them is in
t/t4135/make-patches.
Filenames with tabs are not usable on NTFS; use something like the
FUNNYNAMES prerequisite from v1.3.0-rc1~67 (2006-03-03) to skip the
relevant tests when appropriate. The detection is not shared in
test-lib.sh to avoid wasting time while running other test scripts.
Backslash is the path separator on Windows, so do not used it in
file names there (v1.6.3-rc0~93^2~6, 2009-03-13).
Finally, filenames starting with a quotation mark do not behave well
in msys (see v1.7.0-rc0~94^2, t4030, t4031: work around bogus MSYS
bash path conversion, 2010-01-01), so skip those tests on Windows,
too.
