Jonathan Nieder 4ecbc65fa7 Makefile: make ppc/sha1ppc.o depend on GIT-CFLAGS
The %.o: %.S pattern rule should depend on GIT-CFLAGS to avoid
trouble when ALL_CFLAGS changes.

The pattern only applies to one file (ppc/sha1ppc.S) and that
file does not use any #ifdefs, so leaving the dependency out is
probably harmless.  Nevertheless, it is safer to include the
dependency in case future code's behavior does depend on the
build flags.

Jeff King ac10a85785 tests: handle NO_PYTHON setting
Without this, test-lib checks that the git_remote_helpers
directory has been built. However, if we are building
without python, we will not have done anything at all in
that directory, and test-lib's sanity check will fail.

We bump the inclusion of GIT-BUILD-OPTIONS further up in
test-lib; it contains configuration, and as such should be
read before we do any checks (and in this particular case,
we need its value to do our check properly).

Matthew Ogilvie ea925196f1 build dashless "bin-wrappers" directory similar to installed bindir
The new bin-wrappers directory contains wrapper scripts
for executables that will be installed into the standard
bindir.  It explicitly does not contain most dashed-commands.
The scripts automatically set environment variables to run out
of the source tree, not the installed directory.

This will allow running the test suite without dashed commands in
the PATH.  It also provides a simplified way to test run custom
built git executables without installing them first.

bin-wrappers also contains wrappers for some test suite support
executables, where the test suite will soon make use of them.

Sverre Rabbelier 2fe40b6300 Add Python support library for remote helpers
This patch introduces parts of a Python package called
"git_remote_helpers" containing the building blocks for
remote helpers written in Python.

No actual remote helpers are part of this patch, this patch only
includes the common basics needed to start writing such helpers.

The patch includes the necessary Makefile additions to build and
install the git_remote_helpers Python package along with the rest of
Git.

This patch is based on Johan Herland's git_remote_cvs patch and
has been improved by the following contributions:
- David Aguilar: Lots of Python coding style fixes
- David Aguilar: DESTDIR support in Makefile

scripts are added in future patches, their building and installation
can be disabled by defining NO_PYTHON.

Philippe Bruhat (BooK) be38ca3d19 Make sure $PERL_PATH is defined when the test suite is run.
Some test scripts run Perl scripts as if they were git-* scripts, and
thus need to use the same perl that will be put in the shebang line of
git*.perl commands. $PERL_PATH therefore needs to be used instead of
a bare "perl".

The tests can fail if another perl is found in $PATH before the one
defined in $PERL_PATH.

Example test failure caused by this: the perl defined in $PERL_PATH has
Error.pm installed, and therefore the Git.pm's Makefile.PL doesn't install
the private copy. The perl from $PATH doesn't have Error.pm installed, and
all git*.perl scripts invoked during the test will fail loading Error.pm.

Junio C Hamano a3d023d0a3 Provide a build time default-pager setting
Provide a DEFAULT_PAGER knob so packagers can set the fallback
pager to something appropriate during the build.

Examples:

On (old) solaris systems, /usr/bin/less (typically the first less
found) doesn't understand the default arguments (FXRS), which
forces users to alter their environment (PATH, GIT_PAGER, LESS,
etc) or have a local or global gitconfig before paging works as
expected.

On Debian systems, by policy packages must fall back to the
'pager' command, so that changing the target of the
/usr/bin/pager symlink changes the default pager for all packages
at once.

using ScriptAlias, such as with the following configuration:

  LoadModule cgi_module /usr/libexec/apache2/mod_cgi.so
  LoadModule alias_module /usr/libexec/apache2/mod_alias.so
  ScriptAlias /git/ /usr/libexec/git-core/git-http-backend/

Repositories are accessed via the translated PATH_INFO.

The CGI is backwards compatible with the dumb client, allowing all
older HTTP clients to continue to download repositories which are
managed by the CGI.

Sebastian Schuberth ade2ca0ca9 Do not try to remove directories when removing old links
When building Git with MSVC on Windows, directories named after the Git alias
are created for the output files, e.g. there is a "git-merge-index" directory
next to the "git-merge-index.exe" executable in the build root. Previously,
"make all" just checked if "git-merge-index" and "git-merge-index.exe" are the
same file, and if not, tried to remove "git-merge-index". This fails in the
case of "git-merge-index" being a directory, which is why this is checked now.

Thomas Rast 204d363f5a Quote ' as \(aq in manpages
The docbook/xmlto toolchain insists on quoting ' as \'.  This does
achieve the quoting goal, but modern 'man' implementations turn the
apostrophe into a unicode "proper" apostrophe (given the right
circumstances), breaking code examples in many of our manpages.

Quote them as \(aq instead, which is an "apostrophe quote" as per the
groff_char manpage.

Unfortunately, as Anders Kaseorg kindly pointed out, this is not
portable beyond groff, so we add an extra Makefile variable GNU_ROFF
which you need to enable to get the new quoting.

Thanks also to Miklos Vajna for documentation.

Johannes Schindelin a97a74686d Introduce commit notes
Commit notes are blobs which are shown together with the commit
message.  These blobs are taken from the notes ref, which you can
configure by the config variable core.notesRef, which in turn can
be overridden by the environment variable GIT_NOTES_REF.

The notes ref is a branch which contains "files" whose names are
the names of the corresponding commits (i.e. the SHA-1).

The rationale for putting this information into a ref is this: we
want to be able to fetch and possibly union-merge the notes,
maybe even look at the date when a note was introduced, and we
want to store them efficiently together with the other objects.

This patch has been improved by the following contributions:
- Thomas Rast: fix core.notesRef documentation
- Tor Arne Vestbø: fix printing of multi-line notes
- Alex Riesen: Using char array instead of char pointer costs less BSS
- Johan Herland: Plug leak when msg is good, but msglen or type causes return

Carlos R. Mafra 3edd98ac65 Makefile: clean block-sha1/ directory instead of mozilla-sha1/
'make clean' should remove the object files from block-sha1/
instead of the non-existent mozilla-sha1/ directory.

Brandon Casey 651aef3428 Makefile: add a note about the NO_MMAP setting on IRIX and IRIX64
When git is compiled with the MIPSpro 7.4.4m compiler, and NO_PTHREADS is
set, and NO_MMAP is _not_ set, then git segfaults when trying to access the
first entry in a reflog.  If NO_PTHREADS is not set (which implies that the
pthread library is linked in), or NO_MMAP _is_ set, then the segfault is
not encountered.  The conservative choice has been made to set NO_MMAP in
the Makefile to avoid this flaw.  The GNU C compiler does not produce this
behavior.

The segfault happens in refs.c:read_ref_at().  The mmap succeeds, and the
loop is executed properly until rec is rewound into the first line (reflog
entry) of the file.  The segfault is caught by test 28 of
t1400-update-ref.sh which fails when 'git rev-parse --verify "master@{May 25
2005}"' is called.

So, add a comment in the Makefile to describe why NO_MMAP is set and as a
hint to those who may be interested in unsetting it.
