cbc60b6720 git tag --contains: avoid stack overflow
In large repos, the recursion implementation of contains(commit,
commit_list) may result in a stack overflow. Replace the recursion with
a loop to fix it.

This problem is more apparent on Windows than on Linux, where the stack
is more limited by default.

See also this thread on the msysGit list:

	https://groups.google.com/d/topic/msysgit/FqT6boJrb2g/discussion

[jes: re-written to imitate the original recursion more closely]

Thomas Braun pointed out several documentation shortcomings.

Tests are run only if ulimit -s is available.  This means they cannot
be run on Windows.

e703d7118c parse-options: multi-word argh should use dash to separate words
"When you need to use space, use dash" is a strange way to say that
you must not use a space.  Because it is more common for the command
line descriptions to use dashed-multi-words, you do not even want to
use spaces in these places.  Rephrase the documentation to avoid
this strangeness.

Fix a few existing multi-word argument help strings, i.e.

 - GPG key-ids given to -S/--gpg-sign are "key-id";
 - Refs used for storing notes are "notes-ref"; and
 - Expiry timestamps given to --expire are "expiry-date".

5955654823 replace {pre,suf}fixcmp() with {starts,ends}_with()
Leaving only the function definitions and declarations so that any
new topic in flight can still make use of the old functions, replace
existing uses of the prefixcmp() and suffixcmp() with new API
functions.

The change can be recreated by mechanically applying this:

    $ git grep -l -e prefixcmp -e suffixcmp -- \*.c |
      grep -v strbuf\\.c |
      xargs perl -pi -e '
        s|!prefixcmp\(|starts_with\(|g;

eff80a9fd9 Allow custom "comment char"
Some users do want to write a line that begin with a pound sign, #,
in their commit log message.  Many tracking system recognise
a token of #<bugid> form, for example.

The support we offer these use cases is not very friendly to the end
users.  They have a choice between

 - Don't do it.  Avoid such a line by rewrapping or indenting; and

 - Use --cleanup=whitespace but remove all the hint lines we add.

Give them a way to set a custom comment char, e.g.

    $ git -c core.commentchar="%" commit

so that they do not have to do either of the two workarounds.

[jc: although I started the topic, all the tests and documentation
updates, many of the call sites of the new strbuf_add_commented_*()
functions, and the change to git-submodule.sh scripted Porcelain are
from Ralf.]

f9bc573fda ident: rename IDENT_ERROR_ON_NO_NAME to IDENT_STRICT
Callers who ask for ERROR_ON_NO_NAME are not so much
concerned that the name will be blank (because, after all,
we will fall back to using the username), but rather it is a
check to make sure that low-quality identities do not end up
in things like commit messages or emails (whereas it is OK
for them to end up in things like reflogs).

When future commits add more quality checks on the identity,
each of these callers would want to use those checks, too.
Rather than modify each of them later to add a new flag,
let's refactor the flag.

31fd8d72f2 tag: do not show non-tag contents with "-n"
"git tag -n" did not check the type of the object it is reading the top n
lines from. At least, avoid showing the beginning of trees and blobs when
dealing with lightweight tags that point at them.

As the payload of a tag and a commit look similar in that they both start
with a header block, which is skipped for the purpose of "-n" output,
followed by human readable text, allow the message of commit objects to be
shown just like the contents of tag objects. This avoids regression for
people who have been using "tag -n" to show the log messages of commits
that are pointed at by lightweight tags.

Test script is from Jeff King.

fb630e048c tag: die when listing missing or corrupt objects
We don't usually bother looking at tagged objects at all
when listing. However, if "-n" is specified, we open the
objects to read the annotations of the tags.  If we fail to
read an object, or if the object has zero length, we simply
silently return.

The first case is an indication of a broken or corrupt repo,
and we should notify the user of the error.

The second case is OK to silently ignore; however, the
existing code leaked the buffer returned by read_sha1_file.

ca51699961 tag: fix output of "tag -n" when errors occur
When "git tag" is instructed to print lines from annotated
tags via "-n", it first prints the tag name, then attempts
to parse and print the lines of the tag object, and then
finally adds a trailing newline.

If an error occurs, we return early from the function and
never print the newline, screwing up the output for the next
tag. Let's factor the line-printing into its own function so
we can manage the early returns better, and make sure that
we always terminate the line.

c689332391 Convert many resolve_ref() calls to read_ref*() and ref_exists()
resolve_ref() may return a pointer to a static buffer, which is not
safe for long-term use because if another resolve_ref() call happens,
the buffer may be changed.  Many call sites though do not care about
this buffer. They simply check if the return value is NULL or not.

Convert all these call sites to new wrappers to reduce resolve_ref()
calls from 57 to 34. If we change resolve_ref() prototype later on
to avoid passing static buffer out, this helps reduce changes.

2f47eae2a1 Split GPG interface into its own helper library
This mostly moves existing code from builtin/tag.c (for signing)
and builtin/verify-tag.c (for verifying) to a new gpg-interface.c
file to provide a more generic library interface.

 - sign_buffer() takes a payload strbuf, a signature strbuf, and a signing
   key, runs "gpg" to produce a detached signature for the payload, and
   appends it to the signature strbuf. The contents of a signed tag that
   concatenates the payload and the detached signature can be produced by
   giving the same strbuf as payload and signature strbuf.

 - verify_signed_buffer() takes a payload and a detached signature as
   <ptr, len> pairs, and runs "gpg --verify" to see if the payload matches
   the signature. It can optionally capture the output from GPG to allow
   the callers to pretty-print it in a way more suitable for their
   contexts.

"verify-tag" (aka "tag -v") used to save the whole tag contents as if it
is a detached signature, and fed gpg the payload part of the tag. It
relied on gpg to fail when the given tag is not signed but just is
annotated.  The updated run_gpg_verify() function detects the lack of
detached signature in the input, and errors out without bothering "gpg".

8d9c50105f Change check_ref_format() to take a flags argument
Change check_ref_format() to take a flags argument that indicates what
is acceptable in the reference name (analogous to "git
check-ref-format"'s "--allow-onelevel" and "--refspec-pattern").  This
is more convenient for callers and also fixes a failure in the test
suite (and likely elsewhere in the code) by enabling "onelevel" and
"refspec-pattern" to be allowed independently of each other.

Also rename check_ref_format() to check_refname_format() to make it
obvious that it deals with refnames rather than references themselves.

588d0e834b tag: accept multiple patterns for --list
Until now, "git tag -l foo* bar*" would silently ignore the
second argument, showing only refs starting with "foo". It's
not just unfriendly not to take a second pattern; we
actually generated subtly wrong results (from the user's
perspective) because some of the requested tags were
omitted.

This patch allows an arbitrary number of patterns on the
command line; if any of them matches, the ref is shown.

While we're tweaking the documentation, let's also make it
clear that the pattern is fnmatch.
