Switch git checkout -b to use git-update-ref rather than echo and
a shell I/O redirection. This is more in line with typical GIT
commands and allows -b to be logged according to the normal ref
logging rules.
Added -l option to allow users to create the ref log at the same
time as creating a branch.

My earlier attempt at forcing a write for non-existant refs worked;
it forced a write for pretty much all refs. This corrects the

Its ambiguous to parse "master@2006-05-17 18:30:foo" when foo is
meant as a file name and ":30" is meant as 30 minutes past 6 pm.
Therefore all date specifications in a sha1 expression must now
appear within brackets and the ':' splitter used for the path name
in a sha1 expression ignores ':' appearing within brackets.

If a ref is changed by http-fetch, local-fetch or ssh-fetch
record the change and the remote URL/name in the log for the ref.
This requires loading the config file to check logAllRefUpdates.

Normally we try to skip writing a ref if its value hasn't changed

Corrected the log starting time displayed in the error message
(as it was always showing the epoch due to a bad input to strtoul).
Improved the log parser so we only scan backwards towards the
'\n' from the end of the prior log; during this scan the last '>'
is remembered to improve performance (rather than scanning forward
to it).
If the log record matched is the last log record in the file only
use its new sha1 value if the date matches exactly; otherwise we
leave the passed in sha1 alone as it already contains the current
value of the ref. This way lookups of dates later than the log
end to stick with the current ref value in case the ref was updated
without logging.
If it looks like someone changed the ref without logging it and we
are going to return the sha1 which should have been valid during
the missing period then warn the user that there might be log data
missing and thus their query result may not be accurate. The check
isn't perfect as its just based on comparing the old and new sha1
values between the two log records but its better than not checking
at all.
Implemented test cases based on git-rev-parse for most of the
boundary conditions.

Since large quilt trees like -mm can easily have patches

Importing a quilt patch series into git is not very difficult
but parsing the patch descriptions and all of the other
minutia take a bit of effort to get right, so this automates it.
Since git and quilt complement each other it makes sense
to make it easy to go back and forth between the two.
If a patch is encountered that it cannot derive the author

Gitk wants to use git-diff-tree as a filter to tell it which ids from
a given list affect a set of files or directories. We don't want to
fork and exec a new git-diff-tree process for each batch of ids, since
there could be a lot of relatively small batches. For example, a
batch could contain as many ids as fit in gitk's headline display
window, i.e. 20 or so, and we would be processing a new batch every
time the user scrolls that window.
The --stdin flag to git-diff-tree is suitable for this, but the main
difficulty is that the output of git-diff-tree gets buffered and
doesn't get sent until the buffer is full.
This provides a way to get git-diff-tree to flush its output buffers.
If a blank line is supplied on git-diff-tree's standard input, it will
flush its output buffers and then accept further input.

Extended sha1 expressions may now include date specifications
which indicate a point in time within the local repository's

by the specification is obtained from the ref's log.

If config parameter core.logAllRefUpdates is true or the log
file already exists then append a line to ".git/logs/refs/<ref>"
whenever git-update-ref <ref> is executed. Each log line contains
the following information:
oldsha1 <SP> newsha1 <SP> committer <LF>
where committer is the current user, date, time and timezone in
the standard GIT ident format. If the caller is unable to append
to the log file then git-update-ref will fail without updating <ref>.

Of course, it still ignores the fact that not all grep's support some of
the flags like -F/-L/-A/-C etc, but for those cases, the external grep
itself will happily just say "unrecognized option -F" or similar.
So with this change, "git grep" should handle all the flags the native
grep handles, which is really quite fine. We don't _need_ to expose
anything more, and if you do want our extensions, you can get them with
"--uncached" and an up-to-date index.
No configuration necessary, and we automatically take advantage of any
native grep we have, if possible.

Some implementations do not know what to do with -H; define
NO_H_OPTION_IN_GREP when you build git if your grep lacks -H.
Most of the time, it can be worked around by prepending
/dev/null to the argument list, but that causes -L and -c to
slightly misbehave (they both expose /dev/null is given), so
when these options are given, do not run external grep that does
not understand -H.
