'git rebase -i -p' forgot to update the index and working directory
during fast forwards. Fix this. Makes 'GIT_EDITOR=true rebase -i -p

Also, it attempted to do a fast forward even if it was instructed not
to commit (via -n). Fall back to the cherry-pick code path and let
that handle the issue for us.

Currently, in sub 'close_file', git-svn creates a temporary file and
copies the contents of the blob to be written into it. This is useful
for symlinks because svn stores symlinks in the form:
link $FILE_PATH
Git creates a blob only out of '$FILE_PATH' and uses file mode to
indicate that the blob should be interpreted as a symlink.
As git-hash-object is invoked with --stdin-paths, a duplicate of the
link from svn must be created that leaves off the first five bytes,
i.e. 'link '. However, this is wholly unnecessary for normal blobs,
though, as we already have a temp file with their contents. Copying
the entire file gains nothing, and effectively requires a file to be
written twice before making it into the object db.
This patch corrects that issue, holding onto the substr-like
duplication for symlinks, but skipping it altogether for normal blobs
by reusing the existing temp file.

Currently, git-svn would create a temp file on four occasions:
1. Reading a blob out of the object db
2. Creating a delta from svn
3. Hashing and writing a blob into the object db
4. Reading a blob out of the object db (in another place in code)
Any time git-svn did the above, it would dutifully create and then
delete said temp file. Unfortunately, this means that between 2-4
temporary files are created/deleted per file 'add/modify'-ed in
svn (O(n)). This causes significant overhead and helps the inode
counter to spin beautifully.
By its nature, git-svn is a serial beast. Thus, reusing a temp file
does not pose significant problems. "truncate and seek" takes much
less time than "unlink and create". This patch centralizes the
tempfile creation and holds onto the tempfile until they are deleted
on exit. This significantly reduces file overhead, now requiring
at most three (3) temp files per run (O(1)).

This patch offers a generic interface to allow temp files to be
cached while using an instance of the 'Git' package. If many
temp files are created and destroyed during the execution of a
program, this caching mechanism can help reduce the amount of
files created and destroyed by the filesystem.
The temp_acquire method provides a weak guarantee that a temp
file will not be stolen by subsequent requests. If a file is
locked when another acquire request is made, a simple error is
thrown.

Use rev-list --simplify-merges everywhere. This changes the behaviour
of --subdirectory-filter in cases such as
O -- A -\
\ \
\- B -- M
where A and B bring the same changes to the subdirectory: It now keeps
both sides of the merge. Previously, the history would have been
simplified to 'O -- A'. Merges of unrelated side histories that never
touch the subdirectory are still removed.

The previous ancestor discovery code failed on any refs that are
(pre-rewrite) ancestors of commits marked for rewriting. This means
that in a situation
A -- B(topic) -- C(master)
where B is dropped by --subdirectory-filter pruning, the 'topic' was
not moved up to A as intended, but left unrewritten because we asked
about 'git rev-list ^master topic', which does not return anything.
Instead, we use the straightforward
git rev-list -1 $ref -- $filter_subdir
to find the right ancestor. To justify this, note that the nearest
ancestor is unique: We use the output of
git rev-list --parents -- $filter_subdir
to rewrite commits in the first pass, before any ref rewriting. If B
is a non-merge commit, the only candidate is its parent. If it is a
merge, there are two cases:
- All sides of the merge bring the same subdirectory contents. Then
rev-list already pruned away the merge in favour for just one of its
parents, so there is only one candidate.
- Some merge sides, or the merge outcome, differ. Then the merge is
not pruned and can be rewritten directly.
So it is always safe to use rev-list -1.

This extends the --subdirectory-filter test in t7003 to demonstrate a
rewriting bug: when rewriting two refs A and B such that B is an
ancestor of A, it fails to rewrite B.
The underlying issue is that the rev-list invocation at
git-filter-branch.sh:332 more or less boils down to
git rev-list B --boundary ^A
which outputs nothing because B is an ancestor of A.

If we are building a thin pack and one of the base objects we would
consider for deltification is missing its OK, the other side already
has that base object. We may be able to get a delta from another
object, or we can simply send the new object whole (no delta).
This change allows a shallow clone to store only the objects which
are unique to it, as well as the boundary commit and its trees, but
avoids storing the boundary blobs. This special form of a shallow
clone is able to represent just the difference between two trees.
Pack objects change suggested by Nicolas Pitre.

When feeding trees on the command line, you can give exactly two
trees, not three nor one; --stdin now supports this "two tree" form on
its input, in addition to accepting lines with one or more commits.
When diffing trees (either specified on the command line or from the
standard input), the -s, -v, --pretty, --abbrev-commit, --encoding,
--no-commit-id, and --always options are ignored, since they do not
apply to trees; and the -m, -c, and --cc options are ignored since
they would be meaningful only with three or more trees, which is not
supported (yet).
