The new name is closer to the purpose of the function.
A NUL-terminated buffer makes things easier when callers need that.
Since the function returns only the memory written with data,
almost always allocating more space than needed because final
size is unknown, an extra NUL terminating the buffer is harmless.
It is not included in the returned size, so the function
remains working as before.
Also, now the function allows the buffer passed to be NULL at first,
and alloc_nr is now used for growing the buffer, instead size=*2.

This uses "git-apply --whitespace=strip" to fix whitespace errors that have
crept in to our source files over time. There are a few files that need
to have trailing whitespaces (most notably, test vectors). The results
still passes the test, and build result in Documentation/ area is unchanged.

We currently have two parallel notation for dealing with object types
in the code: a string and a numerical value. One of them is obviously
redundent, and the most used one requires more stack space and a bunch
of strcmp() all over the place.
This is an initial step for the removal of the version using a char array
found in object reading code paths. The patch is unfortunately large but
there is no sane way to split it in smaller parts without breaking the
system.

Most usage strings, such as for command xxx, start with "git-xxx".
This updates the rebels to conform to the general pattern.
(The git wrapper is an exception to this, of course ...)

The NO_C99_FORMAT macro allows compilers that lack support for the
ll,hh,j,z,t size specifiers (eg. gcc 2.95.2) to adapt the code to avoid
runtime errors in the formatted IO functions.

These changes were originally part of the next patch, but have been
split out since they were peripheral to the main purpose of that patch.
- update comment describing the signature format to reflect
the current code.
- remove trailing \n in calls to error(), since a \n is already
provided by error().
- remove redundant call to get_sha1_hex().
- call sha1_to_hex(sha1) to convert to ascii, rather than attempting
to print the raw sha1.
The new tests provide a regression suite to support the modifications
to git-mktag in this and the next patch.

This doesn't make the code uglier or harder to read, yet it makes the
code more portable. This also simplifies checking for other potential
incompatibilities. "gcc -std=c89 -pedantic" can flag many incompatible
constructs as warnings, but C99 comments will cause it to emit an error.

This replaces occurences of "blob", "commit", "tag", and "tree",
where they're really used as type specifiers, which we already
have defined global constants for.

We had errno==EINTR check after read(2)/write(2) sprinkled all
over the places, always doing continue. Consolidate them into
xread()/xwrite() wrapper routines.

And finally what all of this has been leading up to.
The 2 line code change to record who made a tag,
and the 8 line code change to check that we recorded
the tag.
Gosh the error checking is always so much bigger than the code :)

Instead of always assuming it can be read with a single
read() system call, loop around properly.
Pointed out by Pasky, but I ended up implementing it differently
from his suggested patch.
This makes the core code aware of delta objects and undeltafy them as
needed. The convention is to use read_sha1_file() to have
undeltafication done automatically (most users do that already so this
is transparent).
If the delta object itself has to be accessed then it must be done
through map_sha1_file() and unpack_sha1_file().
In that context mktag.c has been switched to read_sha1_file() as there
is no reason to do the full map+unpack manually.

This also regularizes the make. The source files themselves don't get
the "git-" prefix, because that's just inconvenient. So instead we just
make the rule that "git-xxxx" depends on "xxxx.c", and do that for
all the core programs (ie the old "git-mktag.c" got renamed to just
"mktag.c" to match everything else).
And "show-diff" got renamed to "git-diff-files" while at it, since
that's what it really should be to match the other git-diff-xxx cases.
