Once we read packed and loose refs, for_each_ref() and friends
kept using them even after write_ref_sha1() and delete_ref()
changed the refs.  This adds invalidate_cached_refs() as a way
to flush the cached information.

With packed refs, there may not be a ".git/refs/heads/c" file
when branch c exists. And currently in this case, there is no check
to prevent creation of branch c/d.

This should probably be rewritten in C and done after the ref lock
has been taken to make sure no race exists though.

This is mainly to make all test cases in "t3210-pack-refs.sh" work.

This script creates two separate histories, A and B, each of
which does:

      (A0, B0): create fileA and subdir/fileB
      (A1, B1): modify fileA
      (A2, B2): modify subdir/fileB

and then grafts them together to make B0 a child of A2.  So
the final history looks like (time flows from top to bottom):

		true parent	touches subdir?

	A0	none		yes (creates it)
        A1      A0		no
        A2	A1		yes
        B0	none		yes (different from what's in A2)
        B1	B0		no
        B2	B1		yes

"git rev-list --parents --pretty=raw B2" would give "fake"
parents on the "commit " header lines while "parent " header
lines show the parent as recorded in the commit object (i.e. B0
appears to have A2 as its parent on "commit " header but there
is no "parent A2" header line in it).

When you have path limiters, we simplify history to omit
commits that do not affect the specified paths.

So "git rev-list --parents --pretty=raw B2 subdir" would return
"B2 B0 A2 A0" (because B1 and A1 do not touch the path).  When
it does so, the "commit " header lines have "fake" parents
(i.e. B2 appears to have B0 as its parent on "commit " header),
but you can still get the true parents by looking at "parent "
header.

This updates the use of git-update-ref in git-branch, git-tag
and git-commit to make them safer in a few corner cases as
demonstration.

 - git-tag makes sure that the named tag does not exist, allows
   you to edit tag message and then creates the tag.  If a tag
   with the same name was created by somebody else in the
   meantime, it used to happily overwrote it.  Now it notices
   the situation.

 - git-branch -d and git-commit (for the initial commit) had the
   same issue but with smaller race window, which is plugged
   with this.

This adds -d flag to update-ref to allow safe deletion of ref.
Before deleting it, the command checks if the given <oldvalue>
still matches the value the caller thought the ref contained.

Similarly, it also accepts 0{40} or an empty string as <oldvalue>
to allow safe creation of a new ref.

I've seen some users get into situtations where their HEAD
symbolic-ref is pointing at a non-existant ref.  (Sometimes this
happens during clone when the remote repository lacks a 'master'
branch.)  If this happens the user is unable to use git-checkout
to switch branches as there is no prior commit to merge from.

So instead of giving the user low-level errors about how HEAD
can't be resolved and how not a single revision was given change
the type of checkout to be a force and go through with the user's
request anyway.

When using Subversion 1.3.1 without Perl bindings (GIT_SVN_NO_LIB=1),
"git-svn fetch --no-ignore-externals" fails with errors like:

  Tree (.../.git/svn/git-svn/tree) is not clean:
  X      directory_with_external

In this case the 'X' lines in the "svn status" output are not a sign
of unclean tree, and therefore should be ignored.

has indicated that the local filesystem can't be trusted.

This means that when adding files that should be marked executable

Added --ignore-nodate to allow 'git svn fetch' to import revisions
from Subversion which have '(no date)' listed as the date of the
revision.  By default 'git svn fetch' will crash with an error
when encountering such a revision.  The user may restart the fetch
operation by adding --ignore-nodate if they want to continue tracking
that repository.

I'm not entirely sure why a centralized version control system such
as Subversion permits revisions to be created with absolutely no
date/time associated with it but it apparently is possible as one
of the Subversion repositories that I'm tracking with 'git svn'
created such a revision on '(no date)' and by '(no user)'.
