When comparing a string of commits, when we find two non-merge commits
that differ, we now write the two commits to files and diff the files.
This pulls out the logic for creating a temporary directory from
external_diff into a separate procedure so that the new diffcommits
procedure can use it.
Because the diff command returns an exit status of 1 when the files
differ, and Tcl treats that as an error, this adds catch {} around the
close statements in getblobdiffline.
At present this only removes the temporary files when gitk exits. It
should remove them when the diff is done.

We only accepted either SHA1s or heads/tags that have been read. This
meant the user could not, e.g., enter HEAD to go back to the current
commit.
This adds code to call out to git rev-parse --verify if all other
methods of interpreting the string the user entered fail.
(git-rev-parse alone is not enough as we really want a single
revision.)
The error paths change slighly, because we now know from the rev-parse
invocation whether the expression was valid at all. The previous
"unknown" path is now only triggered if the revision does exist, but
is not in the current view display.

ee66e08 (gitk: Make updates go faster, 2008-05-09) implemented an
optimized mode where gitk parses the arguments with rev-parse, and
manually reads history in chunks. As mentioned in the commit message,
symmetric differences are a problem there:
One wrinkle is that we have to turn symmetric diff arguments (of the
form a...b) back into symmetric diff form so that --left-right still
works, as git rev parse turns a...b into a b ^merge_base(a,b).
However, git-rev-parse returns a...b in the swapped order
b a ^merge_base(a,b)
This has been the case since at least 1f8115b (the state of master at
the time of the abovementioned ee66e08; Merge branch 'maint',
2008-05-08). So gitk flipped the sides of symmetric differences
whenever it was in optimized mode.
Fix this by swapping the sides of the reconstruction code.

This is not a serious regression because currently all callers look only

For the most part gitk's focus is on showing history and changes in
a human readable form. For this reason, it makes sense to generate
the patch text in the diff view using --textconv so that textconv
drivers are used if they are defined.
gitk can also generate patches, but we do not use --textconv because
such patches could not be applied.

This fixes a bug in the compare-commits function added in commit
010509f2 ("gitk: Add a command to compare two strings of commits")
where gitk would show an error dialog if the comparison of commits
got to a fake commit (one showing local changes). It extends
getpatchid to handle these fake commits by using [diffcmd] to get
the git diff command variant to use, and also handles the situation
where an error occurs.
Now that we can have the fake commit IDs showing up, which are
00..00 and 00..01, the short ID is ambiguous. To make sure the links
point to the right commit, this adds a new [appendshortlink] procedure
which takes the full link destination, and uses that rather than
appendwithlinks.

This adds a row context menu command to compare this commit and its
descendants with the marked commit and its descendants. The results
are shown in the bottom-left pane. Commits are compared by checking
whether their headlines are the same and their patches have the same
patch ID as generated by git patch-id.
Merges are ignored and skipped over (as long as they have one
descendant). If two commits have the same patch ID then the process
will continue and compare their descendants, as long as they both have
exactly one descendant. If either commit has 0 or 2 or more descendants,
the comparison stops there. There is currently a limit of 100
comparisons.
This can be useful for checking whether one string of commits is just
a rebased version of another string of commits. Mark the end of one
string (i.e. the oldest commit in the string) and invoke "Compare with
marked commit" on the end of the other string.
As this is implemented, the UI will be unresponsive while the results
are being generated. This should be fixed.

This adds a context-menu command to put a mark on this commit. There
is at most one marked commit at any time, and it is indicated by a box
drawn around the headline. Once a commit is marked, two other
context-menu commands become available: one to select the marked commit,
and another to find the closest common descendant of this commit and
the marked commit.
The "find common descendant" command uses the displayed parent/child
relationships (i.e. the rewritten parent pointers produced by git log),
not the real parent/child relationships. Currently the UI will be
unresponsive while gitk is working out the nearest common descendant;
this should be improved in future.

There were actually two problems. This recipe created a situation where
git log would output a child commit after its parent. This meant that
we called fix_reversal which called splitvarc, which should call modify_arc
to note the fact that it has modified the arc that it has just split. It
wasn't, which meant that displayorder and other variables got into an
inconsistent state (a commit appearing twice in displayorder).
This then meant that the targetrow/targetid logic in drawvisible thought
it need to redraw each time. That, together with the fact that drawvisible
called drawcommits which called drawvisible if a redraw was needed, led
to the infinite loop.
In fact drawvisible is now the only caller of drawcommits. Thus, the
start and end row arguments to drawcommits always encompass the whole
visible area, so drawcommits doesn't need to call drawvisible to redraw;
it just needs to clear the screen and draw what it's been asked to.
This fixes these two problems by adding a call to modify_arc in
splitvarc and by taking out the call to drawvisible in drawcommits.
It also removes an unrelated left-over debugging puts in external_blame.

Consider this sequence of events:
1. Detach HEAD and fire up gitk
2. Call the context menu on some commit. Notice that the last menu entry
says "Detached HEAD: can't reset" and it is disabled.
3. Now checkout some regular branch (e.g. 'master') using the context menu.
4. Call the context menu again on some commit.
Previously, at this point the last menu entry said "Reset master branch
to here", but it was still disabled. With this fix it is now enabled again.

The "show origin of this line" function wasn't working when gitk was
run in a subdirectory, since it passed the path relative to the
top-level directory to git blame. This fixes it by passing the
absolute path to the file instead of the relative path.
The same problem occurs when running git gui blame, except that
git gui blame appears not to be able to accept an absolute path to the
file, so we make a relative path using a new [make_relative] function.
Finally, this fixes a bug in [show_line_source] where we weren't
setting id, resulting in an error when trying to find the origin of
a line in the fake commit for local changes not checked in, when its
parent was a real commit (i.e. there were no changes checked in).

This arranges to save the scrolling position of the diff display pane
when we move from displaying one thing to another, and then scroll the
pane to the same position when we go back to the previous thing using
the back or forward buttons. This works if we have clicked on a commit
and are in patch display mode, or if we have clicked on a line or a tag,
or have done a diff between two commits with the context menu. It
doesn't currently restore the pane to where it was if is was displaying
a commit in tree display mode.
For future extensibility, addtohistory now takes an extra optional
argument which is a script to invoke when moving from this thing to
another. The script needs to return a list of pairs of variable name
and value. If we go back to this thing, the godo procedure will set
the named variables to the values given. At present that is just used
to store the $ctext scrolling position, but in future we will use it
to store the state of which directories are open in the file list pane.

Currently, if you invoke the "diff this -> selected" or "diff selected
-> this" and gitk is in "Tree" mode rather than "Patch" mode, the
diff display pane will just show the header but not the actual diff,
unless gitk has done the diff before and thus has the list of files
that differ. This was because the logic in gettreediffline that
checked whether we had moved on to doing something else checked the
mode (Tree or Patch) before checking whether the ids we're diffing
had changed.
This fixes it. The new logic in gettreediffline is slightly hacky
and relies on the fact that the Tree/Patch mode only applies when
we're looking at a single commit, not at the diff between two commits.
