If you have a CVS checkout, it is easy to import the CVS history by
calling "git cvsimport". However, interacting with the CVS repository
using "git cvsexportcommit" was cumbersome, since that script assumes
separate working directories for Git and CVS.
Now, you can call cvsexportcommit with the -W option. This will
automatically discover the GIT_DIR, and it will check out the parent
commit before exporting the commit.
The intended workflow is this:
$ CVSROOT=$URL cvs co module
$ cd module
$ git cvsimport
hack, hack, hack, making two commits, cleaning them up using rebase -i.
$ git cvsexportcommit -W -c -p -u HEAD^
$ git cvsexportcommit -W -c -p -u HEAD

In commit fef3a7cc(cvsexportcommit: be graceful when "cvs status"
reorders the arguments), caution was taken to get the status even
for files with leading or trailing whitespace.
However, the author of that commit missed that chomp() removes only
trailing newlines. With help of the mailing list, the author realized
his mistake and provided this patch.
The idea is that we do not want to rely on a certain layout of the
output of "cvs status". Therefore we only call it with files that are
unambiguous after stripping leading and trailing whitespace.

filter-branch tries to restore "old" copies of some
environment variables by using the construct:
unset var
test -z "$old_var" || var="$old_var" && export var
This is just wrong. AND-list and OR-list operators && and || have equal
precedence and they bind left to right. The second term, var="$old"
assignment always succeeds, so we always end up exporting var.
On bash and dash, exporting an unset variable has no effect. However, on
some shells (such as FreeBSD's /bin/sh), the shell exports the empty
value.
This manifested itself in this case as git-filter-branch setting
GIT_INDEX_FILE to the empty string, which in turn caused its call to
git-read-tree to fail, leaving the working tree pointing at the original
HEAD instead of the rewritten one.
To fix this, we change the short-circuit logic to better match the intent:
test -z "$old_var" || {
var="$old_var" && export var
}

When using /bin/sh from FreeBSD 6.1, the value of $? is lost
when calling a function inside the 'trap' action. This
resulted in clone erroneously indicating success when it

The output of 'tar tv' varies from system to system. In
particular, the t5000 was expecting to parse the date from
something like:
-rw-rw-r-- root/root 0 2008-05-13 04:27 file
but FreeBSD's tar produces this:
-rw-rw-r-- 0 root root 0 May 13 04:27 file
Instead of relying on tar's output, let's just extract the
file using tar and stat the result using perl.

On some shells (notably /bin/sh on FreeBSD 6.1), the
construct
foo && ! bar | baz
is true if
foo && baz
whereas for most other shells (such as bash) is true if
foo && ! baz
We can work around this by specifying
foo && ! (bar | baz)

When run from the command line, ECMerge does not automatically use the same
settings for a merge / diff that it would use when starting the GUI and loading
files manually. In the first case the built-in factory defaults would be used,
while in the second case the settings the user has specified in the GUI would
be used, which can be misleading. Specifying the "--default" command line
option changes this behavior so that always the user specfified GUI settings

This is the base for making symlink detection in the middle fo a pathname
saner and (much) more efficient.
Under various loads, we want to verify that the full path leading up to a
filename is a real directory tree, and that when we successfully do an
'lstat()' on a filename, we don't get a false positive due to a symlink in
the middle of the path that git should have seen as a symlink, not as a
normal path component.
The 'has_symlink_leading_path()' function already did this, and cached
a single level of symlink information, but didn't cache the _lack_ of a
symlink, so the normal behaviour was actually the wrong way around, and we
ended up doing an 'lstat()' on each path component to check that it was a
real directory.
This caches the last detected full directory and symlink entries, and
speeds up especially deep directory structures a lot by avoiding to
lstat() all the directories leading up to each entry in the index.
[ This can - and should - probably be extended upon so that we eventually
never do a bare 'lstat()' on any path entries at *all* when checking the
index, but always check the full path carefully. Right now we do not
generally check the whole path for all our normal quick index
revalidation.
We should also make sure that we're careful about all the invalidation,
ie when we remove a link and replace it by a directory we should
invalidate the symlink cache if it matches (and vice versa for the
directory cache).
But regardless, the basic function needs to be sane to do that. The old
'has_symlink_leading_path()' was not capable enough - or indeed the code
readable enough - to really do that sanely. So I'm pushing this as not
just an optimization, but as a base for further work. ]

The commit sequence used to do
if (file_exists(p->path))
add_file_to_cache(p->path, 0);
where both "file_exists()" and "add_file_to_cache()" needed to do a
lstat() on the path to do their work.
This cuts down 'lstat()' calls for the partial commit case by two
for each path we know about (because we do this twice per path).
Just move the lstat() to the caller instead (that's all that
"file_exists()" really does), and pass the stat information down to the
add_to_cache() function.
This essentially makes 'add_to_index()' the core function that adds a path
to the index, getting the index pointer, the pathname and the stat
information as arguments. There are then shorthand helper functions that
use this core function:
- 'add_to_cache()' is just 'add_to_index()' with the default index
- 'add_file_to_cache/index()' is the same, but does the lstat() call
itself, so you can pass just the pathname if you don't already have the
stat information available.
So old users of the 'add_file_to_xyzzy()' are essentially left unchanged,
and this just exposes the more generic helper function that can take
existing stat information into account.
