Things have slowly but surely started to settle down, and the

Just before updating a ref,

    $GIT_DIR/hooks/update refname old-sha1 new-sha1

is called if executable.  The hook can decline the ref to be
updated by exiting with a non-zero status, or allow it to be
updated by exiting with a zero status.  The mechanism also
allows e.g sending of a mail with pushed commits on the remote
repository.

Documentation update with an example hook is included.

jc: The credits of the basic idea and initial implementation go
to Josef, but I ended up rewriting major parts of his patch, so
bugs are all mine.  Also I changed the semantics for the hook
from his original version (which were post-update hook) so that
the hook can optionally decline to update the ref, and also can
be used to implement the overall cleanups.  The latter was
primarily to implement a suggestion from Linus that calling
update-server-info should be made optional.

This adds a new "git bisect" command.

 - "git bisect start"
	start bisection search.

 - "git bisect bad <rev>"
	mark some version known-bad (if no arguments, then current HEAD)

 - "git bisect good <revs>..."
	mark some versions known-good (if no arguments, then current HEAD)

 - "git bisect reset <branch>"
	done with bisection search and go back to your work (if
	no arguments, then "master").

The way you use it is:

	git bisect start
	git bisect bad			# Current version is bad
	git bisect good v2.6.13-rc2	# v2.6.13-rc2 was the last version
					# tested that was good

When you give at least one bad and one good versions, it will
bisect the revision tree and say something like:

	Bisecting: 675 revisions left to test after this

and check out the state in the middle. Now, compile that kernel, and boot
it. Now, let's say that this booted kernel works fine, then just do

	git bisect good			# this one is good

which will now say

	Bisecting: 337 revisions left to test after this

and you continue along, compiling that one, testing it, and depending on
whether it is good or bad, you say "git bisect good" or "git bisect bad",
and ask for the next bisection.

Until you have no more left, and you'll have been left with the first bad
kernel rev in "refs/bisect/bad".

Oh, and then after you want to reset to the original head, do a

	git bisect reset

to get back to the master branch, instead of being in one of the bisection
branches ("git bisect start" will do that for you too, actually: it will
reset the bisection state, and before it does that it checks that you're
not using some old bisection branch).

Not really any harder than doing series of "quilt push" and "quilt pop",
now is it?

[jc: This patch is a rework based on what Linus posted to the
     list.  The changes are:

  - The original introduced four separate commands, which was
    three too many, so I merged them into one with subcommands.
    
  - Since the next thing you would want to do after telling it
    "bad" and "good" is always to bisect, this version does it
    automatically for you.

  - I think the termination condition was wrong.  The original
    version checked if the set of revisions reachable from next
    bisection but not rechable from any of the known good ones
    is empty, but if the current bisection was a bad one, this
    would not terminate, so I changed it to terminate it when
    the set becomes a singleton or empty.

  - Removed the use of shell array variable.

It's stupid.  We'd want to rename directories too, but this doesn't do
that yet - easy enough to do per se, we just need to carefully list all
the pathnames that got moved (and remember to ignore the files that
weren't tracked but are in the subdirectory that got moved).

Doing the directory case will require a bit more scripting.. Something like

	oldfiles=($(git-ls-files | grep '^$src'))
	newfiles=($(git-ls-files | sed ':^$src: s:^$src:$dst:'))
	mv $src $dst && git-update-cache --add --remove -- "${oldfiles[@]}" "${newfiles[@]}"

might do it, except it needs to be done right, and carefully.  Methinks
perl is probably better at this. Hint hint..

The git-update-server-info command prepares informational files
to help clients discover the contents of a repository, and pull
from it via a dumb transport protocols.  Currently, the
following files are produced.

 - The $repo/info/refs file lists the name of heads and tags
   available in the $repo/refs/ directory, along with their
   SHA1.  This can be used by git-ls-remote command running on
   the client side.

 - The $repo/info/rev-cache file describes the commit ancestry
   reachable from references in the $repo/refs/ directory.  This
   file is in an append-only binary format to make the server
   side friendly to rsync mirroring scheme, and can be read by
   git-show-rev-cache command.

 - The $repo/objects/info/pack file lists the name of the packs
   available, the interdependencies among them, and the head
   commits and tags contained in them.  Along with the other two
   files, this is designed to help clients to make smart pull
   decisions.

The git-receive-pack command is changed to invoke it at the end,
so just after a push to a public repository finishes via "git
push", the server info is automatically updated.

In addition, building of the rev-cache file can be done by a
standalone git-build-rev-cache command separately.

Since pull and fetch are done often against the same remote
repository repeatedly, keeping the URL to pull from along with
the name of the head to use in $GIT_DIR/branches/$name makes a
lot of sense.  Adopt that convention from Cogito, and try to be
compatible when possible; storing a partial URL and completing
it with a trailing path may not be understood by Cogito.

While we are at it, fix pulling a tag.  Earlier, we updated only
refs/tags/$tag without updating FETCH_HEAD, and called
resolve-script using a stale (or absent) FETCH_HEAD.

Now, not all projects can be as refined as Linux.  Before the final 1.0
release, we went through fifteen 0.99 patchfiles, and pl14 alone went
through subreleases 'a' through 'z'. Now _that_ is a release process.

Not to mention the odd-ball releases, like 0.96c+

Sadly, in this day and age of RPM's etc, we have silly limitations, and
I cannot call this release '0.99pl5a or some such awe-inspiring name
just because "rpmbuild" is such a party pooper.  So it's just 0.99.1.

Oh well.  Aspiring to such greatness as the Linux release numbering is

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

There's a few generated files that we left behind.

That way we avoid any confusion with "GNU Interactive Tools", and it's
more descriptive anyway (the rpm documentation talks about how git is
split into a "core" part and an "SCM" part, this makes it clear that
this is the core one).

You can use it as

	git branch <branchname> [start-point]

and it creates a new branch of name <branchname>.  If a starting point
is specified, that will be where the branch is created, otherwise it
will be created at the current HEAD.

The sequence

	git branch xyz abc
	git checkout xyz
