Jonathan Tan 4f39cd821d pack: move pack name-related functions
Currently, sha1_file.c and cache.h contain many functions, both related
to and unrelated to packfiles. This makes both files very large and
causes an unclear separation of concerns.

Create a new file, packfile.c, to hold all packfile-related functions
currently in sha1_file.c. It has a corresponding header packfile.h.

In this commit, the pack name-related functions are moved. Subsequent
commits will move the other functions.

Kevin Willford 738e88a20c format-patch: have progress option while generating patches
When generating patches for the rebase command, if the user does
not realize the branch they are rebasing onto is thousands of
commits different, there is no progress indication after initial
rewinding message.

The progress meter as presented in this patch assumes the thousands of
patches to have a fine granularity as well as assuming to require all
the same amount of work/time for each, such that a steady progress bar
is achieved.

We do not want to estimate the time for each patch based e.g.
on their size or number of touched files (or parents) as that is too
expensive for just a progress meter.

This patch allows a progress option to be passed to format-patch
so that the user can be informed the progress of generating the
patch.  This option is then used by the rebase command when
calling format-patch.

The previous patch taught `git tag` to only respect `pager.tag` in
list-mode. That patch left the default value of `pager.tag` at "off".

After that patch, it makes sense to let the default value be "on"

users of `git tag -a` as it would have before. Make that change. Update

Martin Ågren de121ffe57 tag: respect pager.tag in list-mode only
Using, e.g., `git -c pager.tag tag -a new-tag` results in errors such as
"Vim: Warning: Output is not to a terminal" and a garbled terminal.
Someone who makes use of both `git tag -a` and `git tag -l` will
probably not set `pager.tag`, so that `git tag -a` will actually work,
at the cost of not paging output of `git tag -l`.

Use the mechanisms introduced in two earlier patches to ignore
`pager.tag` in git.c and let the `git tag` builtin handle it on its own.
Only respect `pager.tag` when running in list-mode.

There is a window between where the pager is started before and after
this patch. This means that early errors can behave slightly different
before and after this patch. Since operation-parsing has to happen
inside this window, this can be seen with `git -c pager.tag="echo pager
is used" tag -l --unknown-option`. This change in paging-behavior should
be acceptable since it only affects erroneous usages.

Update the documentation and update tests.

If an alias is used to run `git tag -a`, then `pager.tag` will still be
respected. Document this known breakage. It will be fixed in a later
commit. Add a similar test for `-l`, which works.

Johannes Schindelin c1e860f1dc run_processes_parallel: change confusing task_cb convention
By declaring the task_cb parameter of type `void **`, the signature of
the get_next_task method suggests that the "task-specific cookie" can be
defined in that method, and the signatures of the start_failure and of
the task_finished methods declare that parameter of type `void *`,
suggesting that those methods are mere users of said cookie.

That convention makes a total lot of sense, because the tasks are pretty
much dead when one of the latter two methods is called: there would be
little use to reset that cookie at that point because nobody would be
able to see the change afterwards.

However, this is not what the code actually does. For all three methods,
it passes the *address* of pp->children[i].data.

As reasoned above, this behavior makes no sense. So let's change the
implementation to adhere to the convention suggested by the signatures.
