Junio C Hamano 0ffdbbfe36 Teach local-fetch about lazy object directories.
The latest init-db does not create .git/objects/??/ directories
anymore and expects the users of the repository to create them
as they are needed.  local-fetch was not taught about it, which
broke local cloning with Cogito.

Johannes Schindelin 1bd8c8f00b git-upload-pack: Support the multi_ack protocol
This implements three things (trying very hard to be backwards
compatible):

It sends the "multi_ack" capability via the mechanism proposed by
Sergey Vlasov.

When the client sends "multi_ack" with at least one "want", multi_ack
is enabled.

When multi_ack is enabled, "continue" is appended to each "ACK" until
either the server can not store more refs, or "done" is received.

In contrast to the original protocol, as long as "continue" is sent,
flushes are answered by a "NAK" (not just until an "ACK" was sent),
and if "continue" was sent at least once, the last message is an
"ACK" without "continue".

Johannes Schindelin 211b5f9e62 Support receiving server capabilities
This patch implements the client side of backward compatible upload-pack
protocol extension, <20051027141619.0e8029f2.vsu@altlinux.ru> by Sergey.

The updated server can append "server_capabilities" which is supposed
to be a string containing space separated features of the server, after
one of elements in the initial list of SHA1-refname line, hidden with
an embedded NUL.

After get_remote_heads(), check if the server supports the feature like

	if (server_supports("multi_ack"))
		do_something();

Johannes Schindelin 23d61f8343 Subject: [PATCH] git-fetch-pack: Do not use git-rev-list
The code used to call git-rev-list to enumerate the local revisions.
A disadvantage of that method was that git-rev-list, lacking a
control apart from the command line, would happily enumerate
ancestors of acknowledged common commits, which was just taking
unnecessary bandwidth.

Therefore, do not use git-rev-list on the fetching side, but rather
construct the list on the go. Send the revisions starting from the
local heads, ignoring the revisions known to be common.

Linus Torvalds af13cdf298 Be more careful about reference parsing
This does two things:

 - we don't allow "." and ".." as components of a refname. Thus get_sha1()
   will not accept "./refname" as being the same as "refname" any more.

 - git-rev-parse stops doing revision translation after seeing a pathname,
   to match the brhaviour of all the tools (once we see a pathname,
   everything else will also be parsed as a pathname).

Basically, if you did

	git log *

and "gitk" was somewhere in the "*", we don't want to replace the filename
"gitk" with the SHA1 of the branch with the same name.

Of course, if there is any change of ambiguity, you should always use "--"
to make it explicit what are filenames and what are revisions, but this
makes the normal cases sane. The refname rule also means that instead of
the "--", you can do the same thing we're used to doing with filenames
that start with a slash: use "./filename" instead, and now it's a
filename, not an option (and not a revision).

So "git log ./*.c" is now actually a perfectly valid thing to do, even if
the first C-file might have the same name as a branch.

Trivial test:

	git-rev-parse gitk ./gitk gitk

should output something like

	9843c3074d
	./gitk
	gitk

where the "./gitk" isn't seen as a revision, and the second "gitk" is a
filename simply because we've seen filenames already, and thus stopped
doing revision parsing.

Linus Torvalds 41f222e87a Be marginally more careful about removing objects
The git philosophy when it comes to disk accesses is "Laugh in the face of
danger".

Notably, since we never modify an existing object, we don't really care
that deeply about flushing things to disk, since even if the machine
crashes in the middle of a git operation, you can never really have lost
any old work. At most, you'd need to figure out the proper heads (which
git-fsck-objects can do for you) and re-do the operation.

However, there's two exceptions to this: pruning and repacking. Those
operations will actually _delete_ old objects that they know about in
other ways (ie that they just repacked, or that they have found in other
places).

However, since they actually modify old state, we should thus be a bit
more careful about them. If the machine crashes and the duplicate new
objects haven't been flushed to disk, you can actually be in trouble.

This is trivially stupid about it by calling "sync" before removing the
objects. Not very smart, but we're talking about special operations than
are usually done once a week if that.

This removes the unoptimization.  The previous round does not mind

Linus Torvalds 8b7e5d76e8 [PATCH] Make "gitk" work better with dense revlists
To generate the diff for a commit, gitk used to do

	git-diff-tree -p -C $p $id

(and same thing to generate filenames, except using just "-r" there) which
does actually generate the diff from the parent to the $id, exactly like
it meant to do.

However, that really sucks with --dense, where the "parent" information
has all been rewritten to point to the previous commit. The diff actually
works exactly right, but now it's the diff of the _whole_ sequence of
commits all the way to the previous commit that last changed the file(s)
that we are looking at.

And that's really not what we want 99.9% of the time, even if it may be
perfectly sensible. Not only will the diff not actually match the commit
message, but it will usually be _huge_, and all of it will be totally
uninteresting to us, since we were only interested in a particular set of
files.

It also doesn't match what we do when we write the patch to a file.

So this makes gitk just show the diff of _that_ commit.

We might even want to have some way to limit the diff to only the
filenames we're interested in, but it's often nice to see what else
changed at the same time, so that's secondary.

The merge diff handling is left alone, although I think that should also
be changed to only look at what that _particular_ merge did, not what it
did when compared to the faked-out parents.

Linus Torvalds 19a7e7151d git-rev-list: do not forget non-commit refs
What happens is that the new logic decides that if it can't look up a
commit reference (ie "get_commit_reference()" returns NULL), the thing
must be a pathname.

Fair enough.

But wrong.

The thing is, it may be a perfectly fine ref that _isn't_ a commit. In
git, you have a tag that points to your PGP key, and in the kernel, I have
a tag that points to a tree (and a direct ref that points to that tree
too, for that matter).

So the rule is (as for all the other programs that mix revs and pathnames)
not that we only accept commit references, but _any_ valid object ref.

If the object then isn't a commit ref, git-rev-list will either ignore it,
or add it to the list of non-commit objects (if using "--objects").

The solution is to move the "get_sha1()" out of get_commit_reference(),
and into the callers. In fact, we already _have_ the SHA1 in the case of
the handle_all() loop, since for_each_ref() will have done it for us, so
this is the correct thing to do anyway.

This patch (on top of the original one) does exactly that.

Linus Torvalds 7b34c2fae0 git-rev-list: make --dense the default (and introduce "--sparse")
This actually does three things:

 - make "--dense" the default for git-rev-list. Since dense is a no-op if
   no filenames are given, this doesn't actually change any historical
   behaviour, but it's logically the right default (if we want to prune on
   filenames, do it fully. The sparse "merge-only" thing may be useful,
   but it's not what you'd normally expect)

 - make "git-rev-parse" show the default revision control before it shows
   any pathnames.

   This was a real bug, but nobody would ever have noticed, because
   the default thing tends to only make sense for git-rev-list, and
   git-rev-list didn't use to take pathnames.

 - it changes "git-rev-list" to match the other commands that take a mix
   of revisions and filenames - it no longer requires the "--" before
   filenames (although you still need to do it if a filename could be
   confused with a revision name, eg "gitk" in the git archive)

This all just makes for much more pleasant and obvous usage. Just doing a

	gitk t/

does the obvious thing: it will show the history as it concerns the "t/"
subdirectory.

git-name-rev tries to find nice symbolic names for commits. It does so by
walking the commits from the refs. When the symbolic name is ambiguous, the
following heuristic is applied: Try to avoid too many ~'s, and if two ambiguous
names have the same count of ~'s, take the one whose last number is smaller.

With "--tags", the names are derived only from tags.

With "--stdin", the stdin is parsed, and after every sha1 for which a name
could be found, the name is appended. (Try "git log | git name-rev --stdin".)

when upload-pack (called from git-daemon) is expected to receive

request of any project, or updates from the set of heads previous day
to the latest for a slow moving project).

Currently git-pack-objects does *not* keep pack files it creates for
reusing.  It might be useful to add --update-cache option to it,
which would allow it store pack files it created in the pack-cache
