Minor fixes.

Starting from this one I won't be touching debian/ directory
since the official maintainer seems to be reasonably quick to
package up things.  The packaging procedure used there seems to
be quite different from what I have, so I'd like to avoid
potential confusion and reduce work by the official maintainer
and myself.

This patch converts a stat() to an lstat() call, thereby fixing the case
when the date of a symlink was not the same as the one recorded in the
index. The included test case demonstrates this.

This is for the case that the symlink points to a non-existing file. If
the file exists, worse things than just an error message happen.

Johannes found that the test has 1/256 chance of falsely
producing an uncorrupted idx file, causing the check to detect
corruption fail.  Now we have 1/2^160 chance of false failure
;-).

Avoid asking for zero bytes when that change simplifies overall
logic.  Later we would change the wrapper to ask for 1 byte on
platforms that return NULL for zero byte request.
Signed-off-by: NJunio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

dietlibc versions of malloc, calloc and realloc all return NULL if
they're told to allocate 0 bytes, causes the x* wrappers to die().

There are several more places where these calls could end up asking
for 0 bytes, too...

Maybe simply not die()-ing in the x* wrappers if 0/NULL is returned
when the requested size is zero is a safer and easier way to go.

Now you can say

	git-init-db --shared

if you want other users to be able to push into that repository.

[jc: info/ and objects/info/ need to be group writable if the
 repository is shared --- otherwise packs and refs files cannot

If the config variable 'core.sharedrepository' is set, the directories

	$GIT_DIR/objects/
	$GIT_DIR/objects/??
	$GIT_DIR/objects/pack
	$GIT_DIR/refs
	$GIT_DIR/refs/heads
	$GIT_DIR/refs/heads/tags

are set group writable (and g+s, since the git group may be not the primary
group of all users).

Since all files are written as lock files first, and then moved to
their destination, they do not have to be group writable.  Indeed, if
this leads to problems you found a bug.

Note that -- as in my first attempt -- the config variable is set in the
function which checks the repository format. If this were done in
git_default_config instead, a lot of programs would need to be modified
to call git_config(git_default_config) first.

[jc: git variables should be in environment.c unless there is a
 compelling reason to do otherwise.]

Underlying http-fetch is supposed to be capable of handling
packed repositories just fine, so no need to special case it in
the wrapper script.
Signed-off-by: NJunio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

This does three things:

 . It simplifies the logic to handle the case in which no
   refs are given on the command line, and fixes the bug
   when only "--heads" is specified.  Earlier we showed
   them twice.

 . It avoids to add the same ref twice.

 . It sorts the glob result (e.g. "git show-branch
   'tags/v1.0*'") according to a more version friendly
   sort order.

A proposed change to show cwd relative paths by default from
ls-tree when run from a subdirectory means we would need to
give --full-name option to it.
Signed-off-by: NJunio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

When run from a subdirectory, even though we filtered the output
based on where we were using pathspec, we wrote out the
repository relative paths, not subtree relative paths.  This
changes things so that it shows only the current subdirectory
relative paths.

For example, in Documentation subdirectory of git itself, this
used to be the case:

    $ git-ls-tree --name-only HEAD | grep how
    Documentation/git-show-branch.txt
    Documentation/git-show-index.txt
    Documentation/howto-index.sh
    Documentation/howto

But now it does this instead:

    $ git-ls-tree --name-only HEAD | grep how
    git-show-branch.txt
    git-show-index.txt
    howto-index.sh
    howto

There are two things to keep in mind.

1. This shows nothing.

   $ git-ls-tree --name-only HEAD ../ppc/

   This is to make things consistent with ls-files, which
   refuses relative path that goes uplevel.

2. These show things in full repository relative paths.  In this
   case, paths outside the current subdirectory are also shown.

   $ git-ls-tree --name-only --full-name HEAD | grep how
   Documentation/git-show-branch.txt
   Documentation/git-show-index.txt
   Documentation/howto-index.sh
   Documentation/howto

   $ git-ls-tree --name-only --full-name HEAD ../ppc/
   ppc/sha1.c
   ppc/sha1.h
   ppc/sha1ppc.S

The flag --full-name gives the same behaviour as 1.0, so it
ought to be the default if we really care about the backward
compatibility, but in practice no Porcelain runs ls-tree from a
subdirectory yet, and without --full-name is more human
friendly, so hopefully the default being not --full-name would
be acceptable.

git-checkout does two very different things, and what they
should do when run from subdirectory are quite different.

It does not make any sense to run the one that switches the
current head from anywhere other than the toplevel:

	git-checkout [-f] <branch>
        git-checkout [-b <branch>] <committish>

We could of course chdir to top and do the whole-tree checkout
in git-checkout, but the point is the operation does not make
sense on a partial tree.  The whole tree is checked out.

The other form is to update the index file and working tree file
selectively:

	git-checkout <treeish> <file>... ;# out of tree to index and file
        git-checkout -- <file>...	 ;# out of index to file

This form _does_ make sense to run from subdirectory; and I
myself often wish we supported this.

So here is a patch to do both.

When --show-prefix is useful, sometimes it is easier to cd up to
the toplevel of the tree.  This is equivalent to:

    git rev-parse --show-prefix | sed -e 's|[^/][^/]*|..|g'

but we do not have to invoke sed for that.

sha1_to_hex() returns a pointer to a static buffer. Some of its users
modify that buffer by appending a newline character. Other users rely
on the fact that you can call

Wnen refusing to push a head, we said cryptic "remote 'branch'
object X does not exist on local" or "remote ref 'branch' is not
a strict subset of local ref 'branch'".  That was gittish.

Since the most likely reason this happens is because the pushed
head was not up-to-date, clarify the error message to say that
straight, and suggest pulling first.

This allows the configuration item whatchanged.difftree to

        	difftree = --pretty=fuller --name-status -M

does rename detection, shows the commit header in "fuller"
format and lists affected pathnames and the kind of changes to
them.

When no such configuration item exists, the output format

This changes the way the case two branches rename the same path
to different paths is handled.  Earlier, the code removed the
original path and added both destinations to the index at
stage0.  This commit changes it to leave the original path at
stage1, and two destination paths at stage2 and stage3,
respectively.

[jc: I am not really sure if this makes much difference in the
real life merge situations.  What should happen when our branch
renames A to B and M to N, while their branch renames A to M?
That is, M remains in our tree as is.]

HPA suggests it is simply silly to imitate Linux versioning
scheme where the leading "2" does not mean anything anymore, and
I tend to agree.

The first feature release after 1.0.0 will be 1.1.0, and the
development path leading to 1.1.0 will carry 1.0.GIT as the
version number from now on.  Similarly, the third maintenance
release that follows 1.0.0 will not be 1.0.0c as planned, but
will be called 1.0.3.  The "maint" branch will merge in fixes
and immediately tagged, so there is no need for 1.0.2.GIT that
is in between 1.0.2 (aka 1.0.0b) and 1.0.3.
