Do our own ctype.h, just to get the sane semantics: we want
locale-independence, _and_ we want the right signed behaviour. Plus we
only use a very small subset of ctype.h anyway (isspace, isalpha,
isdigit and isalnum).

This starts using the "user.name" and "user.email" config variables if
they exist as the default name and email when committing.  This means
that you don't have to use the GIT_COMMITTER_EMAIL environment variable
to override your email - you can just edit the config file instead.

The patch looks bigger than it is because it makes the default name and
email information non-static and renames it appropriately.  And it moves
the common git environment variables into a new library file, so that
you can link against libgit.a and get the git environment without having
to link in zlib and libcrypt.

In short, most of it is renaming and moving, the real change core is
just a few new lines in "git_default_config()" that copies the user
config values to the new base.

It also changes "git-var -l" to list the config variables.

We'll want to use it for the tagging too.

But warn about them.  If somebody really ends up later wanting to
explicitly add a note that something has the same parent twice (who
knows, there are strange people around), we can add a flag to say that
it's expected and ok.

This was brought on by a commit in the kernel tree, where a repeated
merge caused a duplicate parent.

Parent duplicates aren't "wrong" per se, they're just in practice not
something you are ever interested in.

Actually use GIT_COMMITTER_DATE in git-commit-tree.

(It used to mistakenly re-use the author date)

Add <limits.h> to the include files handled by "cache.h", and remove
extraneous #include directives from various .c files. The rule is that
"cache.h" gets all the basic stuff, so that we'll have as few system

H. Peter Anvin mentioned that using SHA1_whatever as an
environment variable name is not nice and we should instead use
names starting with "GIT_" prefix to avoid conflicts.  Here is
what this patch does:

 * Renames the following environment variables:

    New name                           Old Name

    GIT_AUTHOR_DATE                    AUTHOR_DATE
    GIT_AUTHOR_EMAIL                   AUTHOR_EMAIL
    GIT_AUTHOR_NAME                    AUTHOR_NAME
    GIT_COMMITTER_EMAIL                COMMIT_AUTHOR_EMAIL
    GIT_COMMITTER_NAME                 COMMIT_AUTHOR_NAME
    GIT_ALTERNATE_OBJECT_DIRECTORIES   SHA1_FILE_DIRECTORIES
    GIT_OBJECT_DIRECTORY               SHA1_FILE_DIRECTORY

 * Introduces a compatibility macro, gitenv(), which does an
   getenv() and if it fails calls gitenv_bc(), which in turn
   picks up the value from old name while giving a warning about
   using an old name.

 * Changes all users of the environment variable to fetch
   environment variable with the new name using gitenv().

 * Updates the documentation and scripts shipped with Linus GIT
   distribution.

The transition plan is as follows:

 * We will keep the backward compatibility list used by gitenv()
   for now, so the current scripts and user environments
   continue to work as before.  The users will get warnings when
   they have old name but not new name in their environment to
   the stderr.

 * The Porcelain layers should start using new names.  However,
   just in case it ends up calling old Plumbing layer
   implementation, they should also export old names, taking
   values from the corresponding new names, during the
   transition period.

 * After a transition period, we would drop the compatibility
   support and drop gitenv().  Revert the callers to directly
   call getenv() but keep using the new names.

   The last part is probably optional and the transition
   duration needs to be set to a reasonable value.

This allows the programs to use various simplified versions of
the SHA1 names, eg just say "HEAD" for the SHA1 pointed to by
the .git/HEAD file etc.

For example, this commit has been done with

	git-commit-tree $(git-write-tree) -p HEAD

instead of the traditional "$(cat .git/HEAD)" syntax.

...since everything out there is either strange (libc mktime has issues
with timezones) or introduces unnecessary dependencies for people (libcurl).

This goes back to the old date parsing, but moves it out into a file of
its own, and does the "struct tm" to "seconds since epoch" handling by
hand. 

I grepped through the tz-database and it seems there's one "country"
left that has non-60-minute DST: Lord Howe Island.  All others dropped
that before 1970. 

This switches git-commit-tree to using curl_getdate() for the
AUTHOR_DATE, and thus fixes the problem with "mktime()" parsing dates in
the local timezone.  It also ends up being more permissive about the
format of the date.

The write function now adds the header to the file by itself, so there
is no reason to duplicate it among all the users any more.

Usage string fixes to make maintenance easier (only one instance
of a string to update not multiple copies).  I've spotted and
corrected inconsistent usage text in diff-tree while doing this.

Also diff-cache and read-tree usage text have been corrected to
match their up-to-date features.  Earlier, neither "--cached"
form of diff-cache nor "-m single-merge" form of read-tree were
described.

It's still just a guess, and the result is not a real email
address anyway. If you want to, you can use COMMIT_AUTHOR_EMAIL
to correct for any git guesses.

Here's a small patch to commit-tree.c that does two things:
	- allows the committer email address and name to be overridden
	  by environment variables (if you don't like the environment
	  variable names I've used (COMMIT_AUTHOR_NAME,
	  COMMIT_AUTHOR_EMAIL), feel free to change them.)
	- provide the proper domainname to the author/committer email
	  address (otherwise, my address was only showing up as from the
	  hostname.)

This allows people to set sane values for the commit names and email
addresses, preventing odd, private hostnames and domains from being
exposed to the world.

Apparently some distributions tend to have space for phone numbers etc there.

Let's not allow trivially bogus commits. I did one for the first
trial of the first kernel git merge. fsck found it ok, but..

This make all dates be stores as seconds since UTC epoch, with the
author's or committer's timezone as auxiliary data so that dates can be
pretty-printed in the original timezone later if anyone cares.  I left
the date parsing in rev-tree.c for backward compatibility but it can be
dropped when we change to base64 :)

commit-tree now eats RFC2822 dates as AUTHOR_DATE because that's
what you're going to want to feed it.

Yes, glibc sucks and strptime is a pile of crap. We have to parse it
ourselves.

No, this doesn't make them easy to use, but makes diff-tree use
the "-r" flag for "recursive" (not "-R") and makes commit-tree
use AUTHOR_xxx environment flags (not COMMITTER_xxx) to match what
it actually does.

It's got some debugging printouts etc still in it, but testing on the
kernel seems to show that it does indeed fix the issue with huge tree
files for each commit.

The tool interface sucks (especially "committing" information, which is just
me doing everything by hand from the command line), but I think this is in
theory actually a viable way of describing the world. So copyright it.
