Some old platforms have an old diff which doesn't have the -U option.
'git diff' can be used in its place. Adjust the comparison function to
strip git's additional header lines to make this possible.

As a general principle, we should not use "git diff" to validate the
results of what git command that is being tested has done. We would not
know if we are testing the command in question, or locating a bug in the
cute hack of "git diff --no-index".
Rather use test_cmp for that purpose.

Now that "git diff" handles stdin and relative paths outside the
working tree correctly, we can convert all instances of "diff -u"
to "git diff".
This commit is really the result of
$ perl -pi.bak -e 's/diff -u/git diff/' $(git grep -l "diff -u" t/)

Using "-U0" is definitely more portable than using "--unified=0",
so we should do that regardless.

When a merge results in a creation of a path that did not exist
in HEAD, and if you already have that path on the working tree,
because the index has not been told about the working tree file,
read-tree happily removes it. The issue was brought up by Santi
Béjar on the list.

This is the first installment to libify diff brothers.
The updated diff-files uses revision.c::setup_revisions()
infrastructure to parse its command line arguments, which means
the pathname arguments are checked more strictly than before.
The tests are adjusted to separate possibly missing paths from
the rest of arguments with double-dashes, to show the kosher
way.
As Linus pointed out, renaming diff.c to diff-lib.c was simply
stupid, so I am renaming it back. The new diff-lib.c is to
contain pieces extracted from diff brothers.

As promised, this is the "big tool rename" patch. The primary differences
since 0.99.6 are:
(1) git-*-script are no more. The commands installed do not
have any such suffix so users do not have to remember if
something is implemented as a shell script or not.
(2) Many command names with 'cache' in them are renamed with
'index' if that is what they mean.
There are backward compatibility symblic links so that you and
Porcelains can keep using the old names, but the backward
compatibility support is expected to be removed in the near
future.

I have noticed that "make test" fails without any explanations when the
"merge" utility is missing. I don't think tests should be silent in
case of failure.
It turned out that the particular test was using "exit" to interrupt the
test in case of an error. This caused the whole test script to exit.
No further tests would be run even if "--immediate" wasn't specified.
No error message was printed.
This patch does following:
All instances of "exit", "exit 1" and "(exit 1)" in tests have been
replaced with "return 1". In fact, "(exit 1)" had no effect.
File descriptor 5 is duplicated from file descriptor 1. This is needed
to print important error messages from tests.
New function test_run_() has been introduced. Any "return" in the test
would merely cause that function to return without skipping calls to
test_failure_() and test_ok_(). The new function also traps "exit" and
treats it like a fatal error (in case somebody reintroduces "exit" in
the tests).
test_expect_failure() and test_expect_success() check both the result of
eval and the return value of test_run_(). If the later is not 0, it's
always a failure because it indicates the the test didn't complete.

This replaces sha1sum(1) with sum(1) in t/t1002. GNU sum(1) runs in
"BSD compatibility" mode by default, and not all systems have GNU
coreutils. On any system without GNU coreutils (or sha1sum) t1002 will
fail. This patch should make t1002 complete successfully everywhere
that sum(1) runs.
I've tested this on Darwin and Linux; it works on both platforms.

This updates t1000 (basic 3-way merge test) to check the merge
results for both successful cases (earlier one checked the
result for only one of them). Also fixes typos in t1002 that
broke '&&' chain, potentially missing a test failure before the
chain got broken.

This implements the "never lose the current cache information or
the work tree state, but favor a successful merge over merge
failure" principle in the fast-forward two-tree merge operation.
It comes with a set of tests to cover all the cases described in
the case matrix found in the new documentation.
