It can be confusing and redundant, since historically the
default remote ref (not remote itself) has been "git-svn", too.

Defer any signals that cause termination while they are
updating; and put the update-ref call as close to the rename()
as possible. Also, make things extra-safe (but slower) for
people using --no-metadata since they can't rely on .rev_db
being rebuilt if it's clobbered (well, I'm calling update-ref

get_log with explicit paths is the safest way to get revisions
that change a particular path we're interested in.
Unfortunately that means we still have to run get_log multiple
times for each path we're interested in, and even more if
a path gets deleted.
The first argument of get_log() is an array reference, but we
shouldn't use more than one element in that array ref because
the non-existence of _one_ of those paths for a particular range
would cause an error for all paths in that range, so yes, we
need multiple get_log calls to be on the safe side...

We no longer delete the top-level directory even if it got
deleted from the upstream repository. In gs_do_update; we
double-check that the path we're tracking exists at both
endpoints before proceeding. We have also added additional
protection against fetching revisions out-of-order.
To simplify our internal interfaces, I've disabled passing the
'recursive' flag to the gs_do_{switch,update} wrapper functions
since we always want it in git-svn. We also pass the
entire Git::SVN object rather than just the path because it
helped me debug.
When printing progress, the refname is printed out to make
it less confusing when multi-fetch is running.

I can't seem to figure out what I or the SVN libraries are doing
wrong, but it appears to be related to reparent and probably
some global structure that gets reset if multiple SVN
connections are being used.
So now, in order to use do_switch; we'll open a new connection
to the repository with the complete URL; but we can't seem to
ever use an existing Ra object after another one has been
created...

Using path names as refnames breaks horribly if a user is
tracking one large, toplevel directory, and a lower-level
directory is followed from another project is a parent
of another ref, as it will cause refnames such as:
'refs/remotes/trunk/path/to/stuff', which will conflict
with a refname of 'refs/remotes/trunk'.
Now we just append @$revno to the end of it the current
refname. And if we have followed back to a grandparent, then
we'll strip any existing '@$parent_revno' strings before
appending our own '@$revno' string to it.

The do_update or do_switch functions in SVN only allow for a
single path component; so 'path/to/deep/dir' would be
interpreted as 'path'.
SVN 1.4.x has a reparent function that can let us change the
session to use a higher-level root of the repository, so we can
use that for do_switch (which still doesn't seem to work in SVN
1.4.3 (a fix was attempted, but they missed the rest of the
typemap changes needed in trunk...)).
On the do_update side, we can use set_path on higher level
directories and set them to a newer revision so they don't get
updated. We can't do this with do_switch, either, because the
relative path we're tracking can change (directory moving into
a child of itself).
Because of these changes, we need to double check that our Fetch
editor is correctly performing stripping on any prefixed paths
from update, otherwise we'll just die() because that would be
a bug.
Added a test case which helped me notice and fix problems with
do_switch, too.

svn_log_changed_path_t structs were being used out of scope
outside of svn_ra_get_log (because I wanted to eventually be
able to use git-svn with only a single connection to the
repository). So now we dup them into a hash.
This was fixed while making --follow-parent fetches more
efficient. I've moved parsing of the command-line --revision
argument outside of the Git::SVN module so Git::SVN::fetch() can
be used in more places (such as find_parent_branch).
Signed-off-by: Eric Wong <normalperson@yhbt.net>
git-svn has never been able to handle deleted branches very well
because svn_ra_get_log() is all-or-nothing, meaning that if the
max revision passed to it does not contain the path we're
tracking, we miss all the revisions in the repository.
Branches fetched using --follow-parent still do this
sub-optimally (will be fixed soon). --follow-parent will soon
become the default, so we will assume that when using get_log();
We will also avoid tracking revprops for revisions with no
path-related changes since otherwise we just end up pulling
logs to paths we don't care about.
Also added a test for this to t9104-git-svn-follow-parent.sh and
correctly commit the log message in the preceeding test (which
conflicted with a filename).

Introducing Git::IndexInfo. This module will probably be useful
outside of git-svn, so I'm not putting it in the Git::SVN
namespace.
This will allow me to more easily avoid the use of get_log() in
the future and simply run do_update in incrementing ranges.
get_log() should be avoided because there are cases where
moved/deleted directories do not track correctly (until
--follow-parent is run on a new branch).

This means that tracking the path of:
/another-larger/trunk/thunk/bump/thud inside a repository
would follow:
/larger-parent/trunk/thunk/bump/thud
even if the svn log output looks like this:
--------------------------------------------
Changed paths:
A /another-larger (from /larger-parent:5)
--------------------------------------------
Note: the usage of get_log() in git-svn still makes a
an assumption that shouldn't be made with regard to
revisions existing for a particular path.

Of course, we handle metadata migrations from previous versions
and we have added unit tests.
The new .git/config remotes resemble non-SVN remotes. Below
is an example with comments:
[svn-remote "git-svn"]
; like non-svn remotes, we have one URL per-remote
url = http://foo.bar.org/svn
; 'fetch' keys are done in the same way as non-svn
; remotes, too. With the left-hand-side of the ':'
; being the remote (SVN) repository path relative to the
; above 'url' key; and the right-hand-side being a
; remote ref in git (refs/remotes/*).
; An empty left-hand-side means that it will fetch
; the entire contents of the 'url' key.
; old-style (migrated from previous versions of git-svn)
; are like this:
fetch = :refs/remotes/git-svn
; this is created by a current version of git-svn
; using the multi-init command with an explicit
; url (specified above). This allows multi-init
; to reuse SVN::Ra connections.
fetch = trunk:refs/remotes/trunk
fetch = branches/a:refs/remotes/a
fetch = branches/b:refs/remotes/b
fetch = tags/0.1:refs/remotes/tags/0.1
fetch = tags/0.2:refs/remotes/tags/0.2
fetch = tags/0.3:refs/remotes/tags/0.3
[svn-remote "alt"]
; this is another old-style remote migrated over
; to the new config format
url = http://foo.bar.org/alt
fetch = :refs/remotes/alt
