d4b0ccd931 git-gui: Initialize Tcl's msgcat library for internationalization
Tcl's msgcat library and corresponding mc procedure can locate a
translated string for any user message, provided that it is first
given a directory where the *.msg files are located containing the
translations.

During installation we will place the translations in lib/msgs/,
so we need to inform msgcat of this location once we determine it
during startup.  Our source code tree however will store all of
the translations within the po/ directory, so we need to special
case this variant.

fc703c209d git-gui: Locate the library directory early during startup
To support a localized version of git-gui we need to locate the
library directory early so we can initialize Tcl's msgcat package
to load translated messages from.  This needs to occur before we
declare our git-version proc so that errors related to locating
git or assessing its version can be reported to the end-user in
their preferred language.  However we have to keep the library
loading until after git-version has been declared, otherwise we
will fail to start git-gui if we are using a fake tclIndex that
was generated by our Makefile.

c80d25dbce git-gui: Correct 'git gui blame' in a subdirectory
David Kastrup pointed out that the following sequence was not
working as we had intended:

  $ cd lib
  $ git gui blame console.tcl
  fatal: cannot stat path lib/console.tcl: No such file or directory

The problem here was we disabled the chdir to the root of the
working tree when we are running with a "bare allowed" feature
such as blame or browser, but we still kept the prefix we found via
`git rev-parse --show-prefix`.  This caused us to try and look for
the file "console.tcl" within the subdirectory but also include
the subdirectory's own path from the root of the working tree.
This is unlikely to succeed, unless the user just happened to have
a "lib/lib/console.tcl" file in the repository, in which case we
would produce the wrong result.

In the case of a bare repository we shouldn't get back a value from
`rev-parse --show-prefix`, so really $_prefix should only be set
to the non-empty string if we are in a working tree and we are in a
subdirectory of that working tree.  If this is true we really want
to always be at the top level of the working tree, as all paths are
accessed as though they were relative to the top of the working tree.
Converting $_prefix to a ../ sequence is a fairly simple approach
to moving up the requisite levels.

9c9f5fa97f git-gui: Do not offer to stage three-way diff hunks into the index
git-apply does not accept a patch that was generated as a three-way
combined diff format such as we see during merge conflicts.  If we
get such a diff in our diff viewer and try to send it to git-apply
it just errors out and the user is left confused wondering why they
cannot stage that hunk.

Instead of feeding a known to be unacceptable hunk to git-apply we
now just disable the stage/unstage context menu option if the hunk
came from a three way diff.  The user may still be confused about
why they cannot work with a combined diff, but at least they are
only confused as to why git-gui is not offering them the action.

875b7c9368 git-gui: Fix "unoptimized loading" to not cause git-gui to crash
If the tclsh command was not available to us at the time we were
"built" our lib/tclIndex just lists all of our library files and
we source all of them at once during startup, rather than trying
to lazily load only the procedures we need.  This is a problem as
some of our library code now depends upon the git-version proc,
and that proc is not defined until after the library was fully
loaded.

I'm moving the library loading until after we have determined the
version of git we are talking to, as this ensures that the required
git-reversion procedure is defined before any library code can be
loaded.  Since error_popup is defined in the library we instead use
tk_messageBox directly for errors found during the version detection.

ce015c213f git-gui: Paper bag fix "Stage Hunk For Commit" in diff context menu
In a13ee29b97 I totally broke the
"Stage Hunk For Commit" feature by making this menu item always
appear in a disabled state, so it was never invokable.  A "teaser
feature", just sitting there taunting the poor user who has become
used to having it available.

The issue caused by a13ee was I added a test to look at the data
in $file_states, but I didn't do that test correctly as it was
always looking at a procedure local $file_states array, which is
not defined, so the test was always true and we always disabled
the menu entry.

Instead we only want to disable the menu entry if the current file
we are looking at has no file state information (git-gui is just a
very confused little process) or it is an untracked file (and we
cannot stage individual hunks).

18a01a0da4 git-gui: Allow git-merge to use branch names in conflict markers
Earlier when I rewrote the merge implementation for git-gui I broke
it such that the conflict markers for the "theirs" side of the hunk
was using a full SHA-1 ID in hex, rather than the name of the branch
the user had merged.  This was because I got paranoid and passed off
the full SHA-1 to git-merge, instead of giving it the reference name
the user saw in the merge dialog.

I'd still like to resolve the SHA-1 upfront in git-gui and always use
that value throughout the merge, but I can't do that until we have a
full implementation of git-merge written in Tcl.  Until then its more
important that the conflict markers be useful to the end-user, so we
need to pass off the ref name and not the SHA-1 ID.

This is a replacement of all of the icons in our tree browser
window, as the prior icons just looked too 1980s Tk-ish.  The

Aside from using more modern looking icons we now have a special

icon, so they stand out from the other types of objects in the tree.

95af4d8de1 git-gui: Make sure remotes are loaded when picking revisions
If we are started for only a blame/browser/citool run we don't
usually initialize the list of remotes, or determine which refs
are tracking branches and which are local branch heads.  This is
because some of that work is relatively expensive and is usually
not going to be needed if we are started only for a blame, or to
make a single commit.

However by not loading the remote configuration we were crashing
if the user tried to open a browser for another branch through
the Repository menu, as our load_all_heads procedure was unable
to decide which refs/heads/ items were actually local heads.  We
now force all remote configuration data to be loaded if we have
not done so already and we are trying to create a revision mega
widget.

1e0a92fdf7 git-gui: Don't kill modified commit message buffer with merge templates
If the user is in the middle of a merge and has already started to
modify their commit message we were losing the user's changes when
they pressed 'Rescan' after resolving issues or making changes in
the working directory.

The problem here was our background timer that saves the commit
message buffer.  It marks the commit message buffer as not being
modified when it writes it out to disk, so during the rescan we
assumed the buffer should be replaced with what we read from the
MERGE_MSG file.  So we now only read these files from .git if we
have a valid backup file.  Since we clear it on commit this will
only have an impact while the user is actively editing the current
commit.

bc318ea86d git-gui: Remove usernames from absolute SSH urls during merging
If we are being asked to merge a tracking branch that comes from a
remote repository accessed by the very common SSH URL format of
"user@host:/path/to/repo" then we really don't need the username
as part of the merge message, it only clutters up the history and
makes things more confusing.  So we instead clip the username part
off if the local filesystem path is absolute, as its probably not
going to be an ambiguous URL even when it is missing the username.

On the other hand we cannot clip the username off if the URL is
not absolute, because in such cases (e.g. "user@host:myrepo") the
directory that the repository path is resolved in is relative to
the user's home directory, and the username becomes important.

ead49f5a4f git-gui: Format tracking branch merges as though they were pulls
If we are merging a tracking branch we know exactly what remote URL
that branch is fetched from, and what its name is on that remote
repository.  In this case we can setup a merge message that looks
just like a standard `git-pull $remote $branch` operation by filling
out FETCH_HEAD before we start git-merge, and then run git-merge just
like git-pull does.

I think the result of this behavior is that merges look a lot nicer
when the came off of local tracking branches, because they no longer
say "commit 'origin/...'" to describe the commit being merged but
instead now mention the specific repository we fetched those commits
from.

part of the tooltip information shown in the revision picker.  This
gives the user an indication of when was the last time that the ref

If we cannot find the loose ref file than we try to fallback on the
reflog and scan it for the date of the last record.  We don't start
with the reflog however as scanning it backwards from the end is not
an easy thing to do in Tcl.  So I'm being lazy here and just going
through the entire file, line by line.  Since that is less efficient
than a single stat system call, its our fallback strategy.

makes the dialog only offer unmerged revisions (those not in HEAD),
as this allows users to avoid performing merges only to get "Already
up to date" messages back from core Git.

7d5266a704 git-gui: Avoid unnecessary symbolic-ref call during checkout
If we are checking out the branch we are already on then there is no
need to call symbolic-ref to update the HEAD pointer to the "new"
branch name, it is already correct.

Currently this situation does not happen very often, but it can be
seen in some workflows where the user always recreates their local
branch from a remote tracking branch and more-or-less ignores what
branch he/she is on right now.  As they say, ignorance is bliss.

This case will however become a tad more common when we overload
checkout_op to actually also perform all of our merges.  In that
case we will likely see that the branch we want to "checkout" is
the current branch, as we are actually just merging into it.

Unfortunately we tossed away the local branch's commit SHA-1 and kept

not update the local branch ref, so the user's data was still intact.

  - remote name/url
  - remote branch name/tag name

This change just makes the first element optional.  If it is an empty
string we will run the fetch, but have the value be saved only into the
special .git/FETCH_HEAD, where we can pick it up and use it for this one
time operation.

dba07411da git-gui: Skip unnecessary read-tree work during checkout
I totally missed this obvious optimization in the checkout code path.
If our current repository HEAD is actually at the commit we are moving
to, and we agreed to perform this switch earlier, then we have no files
to update in the working directory and any stale mtimes are simply not
of consequence right now.  We can pretend like we ran a read-tree and
skip right into the post-read-tree work, such as updating the branch
and setting the symbolic-ref.

eea1ab6e23 git-gui: Simplify error case for unsupported merge types
If we are given a merge type we don't understand in checkout_op there
is probably a bug in git-gui somewhere that allowed this unknown merge
strategy to come into this part of the code path.  We currently only
recognize three merge types ('none', 'ff' and 'reset') but are going
to be supporting more in the future.  Rather than keep editing this
message I'm going with a very generic "Uh, we don't do that!" type of
error.

f66b8a68f2 git-gui: Factor out common fast-forward merge case
In both the ff and reset merge_types supported by checkout_op the
result is the same if the merge base of our target commit and the
existing commit is the existing commit: its a fast-forward as the
existing commit is fully contained in the target commit.

This minor cleanup in logic will make it easier to implement a
new kind of merge_type that actually merges the two trees with a
real merge strategy, such as git-merge-recursive.

60f7352fe1 git-gui: Save the merge base during checkout_op processing
I've decided to teach checkout_op how to perform more than just a
fast-forward and reset type of merge.  This way we can also do a full
recursive merge even when we are recreating an existing branch from
a remote.  To help with that process I'm saving the merge-base we
computed during the ff/reset/fail decision process, in case we need
it later on when we actually start a true merge operation.

4578c5cb69 git-gui: Automatically backup the user's commit buffer
A few users have been seeing crashes in Tk when using the undo key
binding to undo the last few keystroke events in the commit buffer.
Unfortunately that means the user loses their commit message and
must start over from scratch when the user restarts the process.

git-gui now saves the user's commit message buffer every couple of
seconds to a temporary file under .git (specifically .git/GITGUI_BCK).
At exit time we rename this file to .git/GITGUI_MSG if there is a
message, the file exists, and it is currently synchronized with the
Tk buffer.  Otherwise we do our usual routine of saving the Tk buffer
to .git/GITGUI_MSG and delete .git/GITGUI_BCK, if it exists.

During startup we favor .git/GITGUI_BCK over .git/GITGUI_MSG.  This
way a crash doesn't take out the user's message buffer but instead
will cause the user to lose only a few keystrokes.  Most people do
not type more than 200 WPM, and with 30 possible saves per minute
we are unlikely to lose more than 7 words.

5dc2cae6f4 git-gui: Completely remove support for creating octopus merges
I'm working on refactoring the UI of the merge dialog, because as it
currently stands the dialog is absolutely horrible, especially when
you have 200+ branches available from a single remote system.

In that refactoring I plan on using the choose_rev widget to allow
the user to select exactly which branch/commit they want to merge.
However since that only selects a single commit I'm first removing
the code that supports octopus merges.

A brief consultation on #git tonight seemed to indicate that the
octopus merge strategy is not as useful as originally thought when
it was invented, and that most people don't commonly use them.  So
making users fall back to the command line to create an octopus is
actually maybe a good idea here, as they might think twice before
they use it.
