We deduced a GNU diff output that does not use /dev/null convention
as creation (deletion) diff correctly by looking at the lack of context
and deleted lines (added lines), but forgot to reset the new (old) name
field properly.
This was a regression when we added a workaround for --unified=0 insanity.

Most callers of write_sha1_file_prepare() are only interested in the
resulting hash but don't care about the returned file name or the header.
This patch adds a simple wrapper named hash_sha1_file() which does just
that, and converts potential callers.

Somebody was wondering on #git channel why a git generated diff
does not apply with GNU patch when the filename contains a SP.
It is because GNU patch expects to find TAB (and trailing timestamp)
on ---/+++ (old_name and new_name) lines after the filenames.
The "diff --git" output format was carefully designed to be
compatible with GNU patch where it can, but whitespace
characters were always a pain.
We can make our output a bit more GNU patch friendly by adding an
extra TAB (but not trailing timestamp) to old/new name lines when
the filename as a SP in it. This updates git-apply to prepare
ourselves to accept such a patch, but we still do not generate
output that is patch friendly yet. That change needs to wait
until everybody has this change.
When a filename contains a real tab, "diff --git" format
always c-quotes it as discussed on the list with GNU patch
maintainer previously:
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=git&m=112927316408690&w=2
so there should be no downside.

This makes --whitespace={warn,error,strip} option to also notice
the leading whitespace errors in addition to the trailing
whitespace errors. Spaces that are followed by a tab in indent
are detected as errors, and --whitespace=strip option fixes them.

In "git-apply", we have a few sanity checks and heuristics that
expects that the patch fed to us is a unified diff with at least
one line of context.
* When there is no leading context line in a hunk, the hunk
must apply at the beginning of the preimage. Similarly, no
trailing context means that the hunk is anchored at the end.
* We learn a patch deletes the file from a hunk that has no
resulting line (i.e. all lines are prefixed with '-') if it
has not otherwise been known if the patch deletes the file.
Similarly, no old line means the file is being created.
And we declare an error condition when the file created by a
creation patch already exists, and/or when a deletion patch
still leaves content in the file.
These sanity checks are good safety measures, but breaks down
when people feed a diff generated with --unified=0. This was
recently noticed first by Matthew Wilcox and Gerrit Pape.
This adds a new flag, --unified-zero, to allow bypassing these
checks. If you are in control of the patch generation process,
you should not use --unified=0 patch and fix it up with this
flag; rather you should try work with a patch with context. But
if all you have to work with is a patch without context, this
flag may come handy as the last resort.

Historically we did not allow binary patch applied without an
explicit permission from the user, and this flag was the way to
do so. This makes the flag a no-op by always allowing binary
patch application.

Like xmalloc and xrealloc xstrdup dies with a useful message if
the native strdup() implementation returns NULL rather than a
valid pointer.
I just tried to use xstrdup in new code and found it to be missing.
However I expected it to be present as xmalloc and xrealloc are
already commonly used throughout the code.

After a failed "git am" attempt:
git apply --reject --verbose .dotest/patch
applies hunks that are applicable and leaves *.rej files the
rejected hunks, and it reports what it is doing. With --index,
files with a rejected hunk do not get their index entries
updated at all, so "git diff" will show the hunks that
successfully got applied.
Without --verbose to remind the user that the patch updated some
other paths cleanly, it is very easy to lose track of the status
of the working tree, so --reject implies --verbose.

This cleans up the implementation of "git-apply --binary", and
implements reverse application of binary patches (when git-diff
is converted to emit reversible binary patches).
Earlier, the types of encoding (either deflated literal or
deflated delta) were stored in is_binary field in struct patch,
which meant that we cannot store more than one fragment that
differ in the encoding for a patch. This moves the information
to a field in struct fragment that is otherwise unused for
binary patches, and makes it possible to hang two (or more, but
two is enough) hunks for a binary patch.
The original "binary patch" output from git-diff is internally
parsed into an "is_binary" patch with one fragment. Upcoming
reversible binary patch output will have two fragments, the
first one being the forward patch and the second one the reverse
patch.

Most of the callers except the one in refs.c use the function to
update the index file. Among the index writers, everybody
except write-tree dies if they cannot open it for writing.
This gives the function an extra argument, to tell it to die
when it cannot create a new file as the lockfile.
The only caller that does not have to die is write-tree, because
updating the index for the cache-tree part is optional and not
being able to do so does not affect the correctness. I think we
do not have to be so careful and make the failure into die() the
same way as other callers, but that would be a different patch.

This reworks write_out_result() loop so we first remove the paths that
are to go away and then create them after finishing all the removal.

"foo/bar".
Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
When creating a new file where a directory used to be (or the user had
an empty directory) the code did not check the result from lstat() closely
enough, and mistakenly thought the path already existed in the working tree.
This does not fix the problem where you have a patch that creates a file
at "foo" and removes a file at "foo/bar" (which presumably is the last file
in "foo/" directory in the original). For that, we would need to restructure
write_out_results() loop.
