Add notes on branches, merging, tagging, and update some of the usage to
the friendlier "git cmd" syntax.
It's still ridiculously lacking, but perhaps it's a _bit_ more useful.
Instead of having to cut-and-paste the result, write it to the tag
directory directly. Also, start an editor for the tag message, rather
than just reading it from stdin.
It used to do "Merge $3" as the message, but that ends up being
inconvenient, and much more easily done inside git-pull-script instead.
This makes the third argument to "git resolve" much easier to explain.
Change git-update-cache --refresh behaviour to use sha1's rather than
comparing byte by byte.

This patch makes the first half of write_sha1_file() and
index_fd() externally visible, to allow callers to compute the
object ID without actually storing it in the object database.

This silently adds the ".git" directory component if needed, so you
don't need to state it explicitly for the source. Also, it turns the
source into an absolute pathname when local, so that you can use
relative pathnames without losing sight of the source when we cd into
the destination.
The protocol always supported it, but send-pack didn't actually know how
to tell the other side about a new branch/tag.
NOTE! You'll have to name it explicitly on the command line: if you
don't name any branches, git-send-pack will default to the branches that
already exist.
It always uses a git-relative pathname, ie "refs/heads/master" instead of
".git/refs/heads/master" or whatever your GIT_DIR might be.
This way when we send refs back-and-forth between repositories, there's
never any question about GIT_DIR on either side.
This tries to be more lenient to the users and stricter to the
attackers by quoting the input properly for shell safety,
instead of forbidding certain characters from the input.
Things to note:
- We do not quote "prog" parameter (which comes from --exec).
The user should know what he is doing. --exec='echo foo'
will supply the first two parameters to the resulting
command, while --exec="'echo foo'" will give the first
parameter, a single string with a space inside.
- We do not care too much about leaking the sq_quote() output
just before running exec().

It sets up the normal git environment variables and a few helper
functions (currently just "die()"), and returns ok if it all looks like
a git archive. So use it something like
. git-sh-setup-script || die "Not a git archive"
to make the rest of the git scripts more careful and readable.

I still worry about just quoting things when passing it off to "ssh" or
"sh -c", so I'm being anal. But _, ^ and , are certainly ok and while
both ~ and @ can have speacial meaning to shell/ssh they are benign.
The Makefile in the test suite directory considers any file
matching t[0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9]-*.sh as the top-level test script
to be executed. Unfortunately this was not documented, and the
common test library, t6000-lib.sh was named to match that
pattern. This caused t6000-lib.sh to be called from Makefile as
the top-level program, causing it to leave t/sed.script file
behind. Rename it to t6000lib.sh to prevent this, and document
the naming convention a bit more clearly.

When we are cloning a repository on a local filesystem, it is
faster to just create a hard linkfarm of .git/object hierarchy
and copy the .git/refs files. By default, the script uses the
clone-pack method, but it can be told with the -l flag to do the
hard linkfarm (falling back on recursive file copy) to replicate
the .git/object hierarchy.

When sed uses \n rather than ; as a separator (for BSD sed(1) compat),
it is cleaner to use a file directly, rather than an environment
variable containing \n characters.

the other tests to remove knowledge of sed.script.

It's cheaper to calculate, and doesn't give different results depending
on the order of the arguments passed in (and is thus more appropriate
for something like gitk that can validly take the unordered "--all" flag
to show all branches).
The previous dup fix seems to have fixed --topo-order. Holler if you
still see problems.
That's what we should have done in the first place, since it not only
avoids another unnecessary flag, it also protects the commits from
showing up as duplicates later when they show up as parents of another
commit (in the pop_most_recent_commit() path).
This will hopefully also fix --topo-sort.
IIRC our strategy was to let the users' umask take care of the
final mode bits. This patch fixes places that deviate from it.

The function write_one_ref() is passed the list of refs received

This introduces an in-place topological sort procedure to commit.c.
Given a list of commits, sort_in_topological_order() will perform an in-place
topological sort of that list.
The invariant that applies to the resulting list is:
a reachable from b => ord(b) < ord(a)
This invariant is weaker than the --merge-order invariant, but is cheaper
to calculate (assuming the list has been identified) and will serve any
purpose where only a minimal topological order guarantee is required.
