This is a complete rewrite of ls-tree to make it behave more
like what "/bin/ls -a" does in the current working directory.
Namely, the changes are:
- Unlike the old ls-tree behaviour that used paths arguments to
restrict output (not that it worked as intended---as pointed
out in the mailing list discussion, it was quite incoherent),
this rewrite uses paths arguments to specify what to show.
- Without arguments, it implicitly uses the root level as its
sole argument ("/bin/ls -a" behaves as if "." is given
without argument).
- Without -r (recursive) flag, it shows the named blob (either
file or symlink), or the named tree and its immediate
children.
- With -r flag, it shows the named path, and recursively
descends into it if it is a tree.
- With -d flag, it shows the named path and does not show its
children even if the path is a tree, nor descends into it
recursively.
This is still request-for-comments patch. There is no mailing
list consensus that this proposed new behaviour is a good one.
The patch to t/t3100-ls-tree-restrict.sh illustrates
user-visible behaviour changes. Namely:
* "git-ls-tree $tree path1 path0" lists path1 first and then
path0. It used to use paths as an output restrictor and
showed output in cache entry order (i.e. path0 first and then
path1) regardless of the order of paths arguments.
* "git-ls-tree $tree path2" lists path2 and its immediate
children but having explicit paths argument does not imply
recursive behaviour anymore, hence paths/baz is shown but not
paths/baz/b.

Use SP as the column separator except the ones before path which
uses TAB, to make the output format consistent across ls-* and
diff-* commands.

Enhance git-ls-tree to allow optional 'match paths' that
restricts the output of git-ls-tree. This is useful to retrieve
a single file's SHA1 out of a tree without creating an index.

Fix various things that sparse complains about:
- use NULL instead of 0
- make sure we declare everything properly, or mark it static
- use proper function declarations ("fn(void)" instead of "fn()")
Sparse is always right.
Fixes all in-code names that leaved during "big name change".

- Raw hashes should be unsigned char.
- String functions want signed char.
- Hash and compress functions want unsigned char.

cleanup: this patch adds a free() to ls-tree.c.
(Technically it's not a memory leak yet because the buffer is allocated
once by the function and then the utility exits - but it's a tad cleaner
to not leave such assumptions in the code, so that if someone reuses the
function (or extends the utility to include a loop) the uncleanliness
doesnt develop into a real memory leak.)

Some commands initialize sha1_file_directory by hand. There is no
need to do so; sha1_file.c knows how to handle it.
The next patch will remove the variable altogether.

This allows the programs to use various simplified versions of
the SHA1 names, eg just say "HEAD" for the SHA1 pointed to by
the .git/HEAD file etc.
For example, this commit has been done with
git-commit-tree $(git-write-tree) -p HEAD
instead of the traditional "$(cat .git/HEAD)" syntax.
This patch renames read_tree_with_tree_or_commit_sha1() to
read_object_with_reference() and extends it to automatically
dereference not just "commit" objects but "tag" objects. With
this patch, you can say e.g.:
ls-tree $tag
read-tree -m $(merge-base $tag $HEAD) $tag $HEAD
diff-cache $tag
diff-tree $tag $HEAD

ls-tree unconditionally called read_sha1_file() for all paths
even when not needed, which was a mistake introduced by me.
Rectify this by first checking S_ISDIR(mode) and read the tree
contents only when it is a tree and we are recursive. There is
no need to read it in any other cases.
The patch also removes the confusing comment that led to this
incorrect implementation.
Thanks to Peter Baudis for noticing this problem.

This adds '-r' (recursive) option and '-z' (NUL terminated)
option to ls-tree. I need it so that the merge-trees (formerly
known as git-merge.perl) script does not need to create any
temporary dircache while merging. It used to use show-files on
a temporary dircache to get the list of files in the ancestor
tree, and also used the dircache to store the result of its
automerge. I probably still need it for the latter reason, but
with this patch not for the former reason anymore.

ls-tree tool provides just a way to export the binary tree objects
to a usable text format. This is bound to be useful in variety
of scripts, although none of those I have currently uses it.
But e.g. the simple script I've sent to HPA for purging the object
database uses it.
