1bf072e366 bisect--helper: implement "git bisect--helper"
This patch implements a new "git bisect--helper" builtin plumbing
command that will be used to migrate "git-bisect.sh" to C.

We start by implementing only the "--next-vars" option that will
read bisect refs from "refs/bisect/", and then compute the next
bisect step, and output shell variables ready to be eval'ed by
the shell.

At this step, "git bisect--helper" ignores the paths that may
have been put in "$GIT_DIR/BISECT_NAMES". This will be fixed in a
later patch.

8af84dadb1 git wrapper: DWIM mistyped commands
This patch introduces a modified Damerau-Levenshtein algorithm into
Git's code base, and uses it with the following penalties to show some
similar commands when an unknown command was encountered:

	swap = 0, insertion = 1, substitution = 2, deletion = 4

A typical output would now look like this:

	$ git sm
	git: 'sm' is not a git-command. See 'git --help'.

	Did you mean one of these?
		am
		rm

The cut-off is at similarity rating 6, which was empirically determined
to give sensible results.

As a convenience, if there is only one candidate, Git continues under
the assumption that the user mistyped it.  Example:

	$ git reabse
	WARNING: You called a Git program named 'reabse', which does
	not exist.
	Continuing under the assumption that you meant 'rebase'
	[...]

1e7abc593d Revert "Build-in "git-shell""
This reverts commit daa0cc9a92.
It was a stupid idea to do this; when run as a log-in shell,
it is spawned with argv[0] set to "-git-shell", so the usual
name-based dispatch would not work to begin with.

782c2d65c2 Build in checkout
The only differences in behavior should be:

 - git checkout -m with non-trivial merging won't print out
   merge-recursive messages (see the change in t7201-co.sh)

 - git checkout -- paths... will give a sensible error message if
   HEAD is invalid as a commit.

 - some intermediate states which were written to disk in the shell
   version (in particular, index states) are only kept in memory in
   this version, and therefore these can no longer be revealed by
   later write operations becoming impossible.

 - when we change branches, we discard MERGE_MSG, SQUASH_MSG, and
   rr-cache/MERGE_RR, like reset always has.

I'm not 100% sure I got the merge recursive setup exactly right; the
base for a non-trivial merge in the shell code doesn't seem
theoretically justified to me, but I tried to match it anyway, and the
tests all pass this way.

Other than these items, the results should be identical to the shell
version, so far as I can tell.

e1b3a2cad7 Build-in merge-recursive
This makes write_tree_from_memory(), which writes the active cache as
a tree and returns the struct tree for it, available to other code. It
also makes available merge_trees(), which does the internal merge of
two trees with a known base, and merge_recursive(), which does the
recursive internal merge of two commits with a list of common
ancestors.

The first two of these will be used by checkout -m, and the third is
presumably useful in general, although the implementation of checkout
-m which entirely matches the behavior of the shell version does not
use it (since it ignores the difference of ancestry between the old
branch and the new branch).

45525bd022 Make error messages from cherry-pick/revert more sensible
The original "rewrite in C" did somewhat a sloppy job while
stealing code from git-write-tree.

The caller pretends as if the write_tree() function would return
an error code and being able to issue a sensible error message
itself, but write_tree() function just calls die() and never
returns an error.  Worse yet, the function claims that it was
running git-write-tree (which is no longer true after
cherry-pick stole it).

f2dc849e9c Add 'git fast-export', the sister of 'git fast-import'
This program dumps (parts of) a git repository in the format that
fast-import understands.

For clarity's sake, it does not use the 'inline' method of specifying
blobs in the commits, but builds the blobs before building the commits.

Since signed tags' signatures will not necessarily be valid (think
transformations after the export, or excluding revisions, changing
the history), there are 4 modes to handle them: abort (default),
ignore, warn and strip.  The latter just turns the tags into
unsigned ones.

113f10f22f Make git-clean a builtin
This replaces git-clean.sh with builtin-clean.c, and moves
git-clean.sh to the examples.

This also introduces a change in behavior when removing directories
explicitly specified as a path.  For example currently:

1. When dir has only untracked files, these two behave differently:

    $ git clean -n dir
    $ git clean -n dir/

the former says "Would not remove dir/", while the latter would say
"Would remove dir/untracked" for all paths under it, but not the
directory itself.

With -d, the former would stop refusing, however since the user
explicitly asked to remove the directory the -d is no longer required.

2. When there are more parameters:

    $ git clean -n dir foo
    $ git clean -n dir/ foo

both cases refuse to remove dir/ unless -d is specified.  Once again
since both cases requested to remove dir the -d is no longer required.

Thanks to Johannes Schindelin for the conversion to using the
parse-options API.

b888d61c83 Make fetch a builtin
Thanks to Johannes Schindelin for review and fixes, and Julian
Phillips for the original C translation.

This changes a few small bits of behavior:

branch.<name>.merge is parsed as if it were the lhs of a fetch
refspec, and does not have to exactly match the actual lhs of a
refspec, so long as it is a valid abbreviation for the same ref.

branch.<name>.merge is no longer ignored if the remote is configured
with a branches/* file. Neither behavior is useful, because there can
only be one ref that gets fetched, but this is more consistant.

Also, fetch prints different information to standard out.

0e5a7faa3a Make "git reset" a builtin.
This replaces the script "git-reset.sh" with "builtin-reset.c".

A few git commands used in the script are called from the builtin also:
"ls-files" to check for unmerged files, "read-tree" for resetting
the index file in "mixed" and "hard" resets, and "update-index" to
refresh at the end in the "mixed" reset and also for the option that
gets selected paths into the index.

The reset option with paths was implemented by Johannes Schindelin.

Since the option that gets selected paths into the index is not
a "reset" like the others because it does not change the HEAD at all,
now the command is showing a warning when the "--mixed" option
is supplied for that purpose.

The following table shows the behaviour of "git reset" for
the different supported options, where X means "changing"
the HEAD, index or working tree:

reset:  --soft  --mixed  --hard  -- <paths>
HEAD       X       X        X        -
index      -       X        X        X

2ae68fcb78 Make verify-tag a builtin.
This replaces "git-verify-tag.sh" with "builtin-verify-tag.c".

Testing relies on the "git tag -v" tests calling this command.

A temporary file is needed when calling to gpg, because git is
already creating detached signatures (gpg option -b) to sign tags
(instead of leaving gpg to add the signature to the file by itself),
and those signatures need to be supplied in a separate file to be
verified by gpg.

The program uses git_mkstemp to create that temporary file needed by
gpg, instead of the previously used "$GIT_DIR/.tmp-vtag", in order to
allow the command to be used in read-only repositories, and also
prevent other instances of git to read or remove the same file.

Signal SIGPIPE is ignored because the program sometimes was
terminated because that signal when writing the input for gpg.

The command now can receive many tag names to be verified.
Documentation is also updated here to reflect this new behaviour.

62e09ce998 Make git tag a builtin.
This replaces the script "git-tag.sh" with "builtin-tag.c".

The existing test suite for "git tag" guarantees the compatibility
with the features provided by the script version.

There are some minor changes in the behaviour of "git tag" here:
"git tag -v" now can get more than one tag to verify, like "git tag -d" does,
"git tag" with no arguments prints all tags, more like "git branch" does,
and "git tag -n" also prints all tags with annotations (without needing -l).
Tests and documentation were also updated to reflect these changes.

The program is currently calling the script "git verify-tag" for verify.
This can be changed porting it to C and calling its functions directly
from builtin-tag.c.

it from "builtin-tag.c" and the upcoming "builtin-commit.c".
A new parameter skip_comments was also added to the stripspace
function to optionally strips every shell #comment from the input,
needed for doing this task on those programs.

d0bfd026a8 Add basic infrastructure to assign attributes to paths
This adds the basic infrastructure to assign attributes to
paths, in a way similar to what the exclusion mechanism does
based on $GIT_DIR/info/exclude and .gitignore files.

An attribute is just a simple string that does not contain any
whitespace.  They can be specified in $GIT_DIR/info/attributes
file, and .gitattributes file in each directory.

Each line in these files defines a pattern matching rule.
Similar to the exclusion mechanism, a later match overrides an
earlier match in the same file, and entries from .gitattributes
file in the same directory takes precedence over the ones from
parent directories.  Lines in $GIT_DIR/info/attributes file are
used as the lowest precedence default rules.

A line is either a comment (an empty line, or a line that begins
with a '#'), or a rule, which is a whitespace separated list of
tokens.  The first token on the line is a shell glob pattern.
The rest are names of attributes, each of which can optionally
be prefixed with '!'.  Such a line means "if a path matches this
glob, this attribute is set (or unset -- if the attribute name
is prefixed with '!').  For glob matching, the same "if the
pattern does not have a slash in it, the basename of the path is
matched with fnmatch(3) against the pattern, otherwise, the path
is matched with the pattern with FNM_PATHNAME" rule as the
exclusion mechanism is used.

This does not define what an attribute means.  Tying an
attribute to various effects it has on git operation for paths
that have it will be specified separately.
