138086a725 shared repository - add a few missing calls to adjust_shared_perm().
There were a few calls to adjust_shared_perm() that were
missing:

 - init-db creates refs, refs/heads, and refs/tags before
   reading from templates that could specify sharedrepository in
   the config file;

 - updating config file created it under user's umask without
   adjusting;

 - updating refs created it under user's umask without
   adjusting;

 - switching branches created .git/HEAD under user's umask
   without adjusting.

This moves adjust_shared_perm() from sha1_file.c to path.c,
since a few SIMPLE_PROGRAM need to call repository configuration
functions which in turn need to call adjust_shared_perm().
sha1_file.c needs to link with SHA1 computation library which
is usually not linked to SIMPLE_PROGRAM.

6de08ae688 Log ref updates to logs/refs/<ref>
If config parameter core.logAllRefUpdates is true or the log
file already exists then append a line to ".git/logs/refs/<ref>"
whenever git-update-ref <ref> is executed.  Each log line contains
the following information:

  oldsha1 <SP> newsha1 <SP> committer <LF>

where committer is the current user, date, time and timezone in
the standard GIT ident format.  If the caller is unable to append
to the log file then git-update-ref will fail without updating <ref>.

An optional message may be included in the log line with the -m flag.

d14f776402 git config syntax updates
This updates the hierarchical section name syntax to

	[section<space>+"<randomstring>"]

where the only rule for "randomstring" is that it can't contain a newline,
and if you really want to insert a double-quote, you do it with \".

It turns that into the section name "secion.randomstring".  The
"section" part is still case insensitive, but the "randomstring"
part is case sensitive.

So you could use this for things like

	[email "torvalds@osdl.org"]
		name = Linus Torvalds

if you wanted to do the "email->name" conversion as part of the config
file format (I'm not claiming that is sensible, I'm just giving it as an
insane example). That would show up as the association

	email.torvalds@osdl.org.name -> Linus Torvalds

which is easy to parse (the "." in the email _looks_ ambiguous, but it
isn't: you know that there will always be a single key-name, so you find
the key name with "strrchr(name, '.')" and things are entirely
unambiguous).

Repo-config is updated to be able to parse the new format, and also
write things out in the new format.

[jc: rolled two patches from Linus and one fix-up from Sean into one,
 with additional adjustments for t/t1300 test to check the case
 insensitiveness of section base and variable and case sensitiveness
 of the extended section part.  Then stripped some part off to make
 the result applicable to the stale 1.3.X series that does not have
 recent enhancements. ]

bdf0ef0824 Another config file parsing fix.
If the variable we need to store should go into a section
that currently only has a single variable (not matching
the one we're trying to insert), we will already be into
the next section before we notice we've bypassed the correct
location to insert the variable.

To handle this case we store the current location as soon
as we find a variable matching the section of our new
variable.

This breakage was brought up by Linus.

5f73076c1a "Assume unchanged" git
This adds "assume unchanged" logic, started by this message in the list
discussion recently:

	<Pine.LNX.4.64.0601311807470.7301@g5.osdl.org>

This is a workaround for filesystems that do not have lstat()
that is quick enough for the index mechanism to take advantage
of.  On the paths marked as "assumed to be unchanged", the user
needs to explicitly use update-index to register the object name
to be in the next commit.

You can use two new options to update-index to set and reset the
CE_VALID bit:

	git-update-index --assume-unchanged path...
	git-update-index --no-assume-unchanged path...

These forms manipulate only the CE_VALID bit; it does not change
the object name recorded in the index file.  Nor they add a new
entry to the index.

When the configuration variable "core.ignorestat = true" is set,
the index entries are marked with CE_VALID bit automatically
after:

 - update-index to explicitly register the current object name to the
   index file.

 - when update-index --refresh finds the path to be up-to-date.

 - when tools like read-tree -u and apply --index update the working
   tree file and register the current object name to the index file.

The flag is dropped upon read-tree that does not check out the index
entry.  This happens regardless of the core.ignorestat settings.

Index entries marked with CE_VALID bit are assumed to be
unchanged most of the time.  However, there are cases that
CE_VALID bit is ignored for the sake of safety and usability:

 - while "git-read-tree -m" or git-apply need to make sure
   that the paths involved in the merge do not have local
   modifications.  This sacrifices performance for safety.

 - when git-checkout-index -f -q -u -a tries to see if it needs
   to checkout the paths.  Otherwise you can never check
   anything out ;-).

 - when git-update-index --really-refresh (a new flag) tries to
   see if the index entry is up to date.  You can start with
   everything marked as CE_VALID and run this once to drop
   CE_VALID bit for paths that are modified.

Most notably, "update-index --refresh" honours CE_VALID and does
not actively stat, so after you modified a file in the working
tree, update-index --refresh would not notice until you tell the
index about it with "git-update-index path" or "git-update-index
--no-assume-unchanged path".

This version is not expected to be perfect.  I think diff
between index and/or tree and working files may need some
adjustment, and there probably needs other cases we should
automatically unmark paths that are marked to be CE_VALID.

But the basics seem to work, and ready to be tested by people
who asked for this feature.

4f629539cd init-db: check template and repository format.
This makes init-db repository version aware.

It checks if an existing config file says the repository being
reinitialized is of a wrong version and aborts before doing
further harm.

When copying the templates, it makes sure the they are of the
right repository format version.  Otherwise the templates are
ignored with an warning message.

It copies the templates before creating the HEAD, and if the
config file is copied from the template directory, reads it,
primarily to pick up the value of core.symrefsonly.

It changes the way the result of the filemode reliability test
is written to the configuration file using git_config_set().
The test is done even if the config file was copied from the
templates.

And finally, our own repository format version is written to the
config file.

10bea152a3 Add functions git_config_set() and git_config_set_multivar()
The function git_config_set() does exactly what you think it does.
Given a key (in the form "core.filemode") and a value, it sets the
key to the value. Example:

	git_config_set("core.filemode", "true");

The function git_config_set_multivar() is meant for setting variables which
can have several values for the same key. Example:

	[diff]
		twohead = resolve
		twohead = recarsive

the typo in the second line can be replaced by

	git_config_set_multivar("diff.twohead", "recursive", "^recar");

The third argument of the function is a POSIX extended regex which has to
match the value. If there is no key/value pair with a matching value, a new
key/value pair is added.

These commands are also capable of unsetting (deleting) entries:

	git_config_set_multivar("diff.twohead", NULL, "sol");

will delete the entry

		twohead = resolve

3299c6f6a8 diff: make default rename detection limit configurable.
A while ago, a rename-detection limit logic was implemented as a
response to this thread:

	http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=git&m=112413080630175

where gitweb was found to be using a lot of time and memory to
detect renames on huge commits.  git-diff family takes -l<num>
flag, and if the number of paths that are rename destination
candidates (i.e. new paths with -M, or modified paths with -C)
are larger than that number, skips rename/copy detection even
when -M or -C is specified on the command line.

This commit makes the rename detection limit easier to use.  You
can have:

	[diff]
		renamelimit = 30

in your .git/config file to specify the default rename detection
limit.  You can override this from the command line; giving 0
means 'unlimited':

	git diff -M -l0

We might want to change the default behaviour, when you do not
have the configuration, to limit it to say 20 paths or so.  This
would also help the diffstat generation after a big 'git pull'.

e1b10391ea Use git config file for committer name and email info
This starts using the "user.name" and "user.email" config variables if
they exist as the default name and email when committing.  This means
that you don't have to use the GIT_COMMITTER_EMAIL environment variable
to override your email - you can just edit the config file instead.

The patch looks bigger than it is because it makes the default name and
email information non-static and renames it appropriately.  And it moves
the common git environment variables into a new library file, so that
you can link against libgit.a and get the git environment without having
to link in zlib and libcrypt.

In short, most of it is renaming and moving, the real change core is
just a few new lines in "git_default_config()" that copies the user
config values to the new base.

It also changes "git-var -l" to list the config variables.

17712991a5 Add ".git/config" file parser
This is a first cut at a very simple parser for a git config file.

The format of the file is a simple ini-file like thing, with simple
variable/value pairs. You can (and should) make the variables have a
simple single-level scope, ie a valid file looks something like this:

	#
	# This is the config file, and
	# a '#' or ';' character indicates
	# a comment
	#

	; core variables
	[core]
		; Don't trust file modes
		filemode = false

	; Our diff algorithm
	[diff]
		external = "/usr/local/bin/gnu-diff -u"
		renames = true

which parses into three variables: "core.filemode" is associated with the
string "false", and "diff.external" gets the appropriate quoted value.

Right now we only react to one variable: "core.filemode" is a boolean that
decides if we should care about the 0100 (user-execute) bit of the stat
information. Even that is just a parsing demonstration - this doesn't
actually implement that st_mode compare logic itself.

Different programs can react to different config options, although they
should always fall back to calling "git_default_config()" on any config
option name that they don't recognize.
