The current "git bisect skip" syntax is "git bisect skip [<rev>...]"
so it's already possible to skip a range of revisions using
something like:

$ git bisect skip $(git rev-list A..B)

where A and B are the bounds of the range we want to skip.

This patch teaches "git bisect skip" to accept:

$ git bisect skip A..B

as an abbreviation for the former command.

This is done by checking each argument to see if it contains two
dots one after the other ('..'), and by expending it using
"git rev-list" if that is the case.

Note that this patch will not make "git bisect skip" accept all
that "git rev-list" accepts, as things like "^A B" for exemple
will not work. But things like "A B..C D E F.. ..G H...I" should
work as expected.

  Fix misleading wording for git-cherry-pick

This avoids the following misleading error message:

error: unable to create temporary sha1 filename ./objects/15: File exists

mkstemp can fail for many reasons, one of which, ENOENT, can occur if
the directory for the temp file doesn't exist. create_tmpfile tried to
handle this case by always trying to mkdir the directory, even if it
already existed. This caused errno to be clobbered, so one cannot tell
why mkstemp really failed, and it truncated the buffer to just the
directory name, resulting in the strange error message shown above.

Note that in both occasions that I've seen this failure, it has not been
due to a missing directory, or bad permissions, but some other, unknown
mkstemp failure mode that did not occur when I ran git again. This code
could perhaps be made more robust by retrying mkstemp, in case it was a
transient failure.

The Tools menu is generally intended for commands that
affect the working directory or repository state. Thus,
the user would usually want to initiate rescan after
execution of a tool. This commit implements it.

In case somebody would want to avoid rescanning after
certain tools, it also adds an option that controls it,
although it is not made available through the Add dialog.

While static commands are already useful, some tools need
additional parameters to reach maximum usability. This
commit adds support for passing them one revision name
parameter, and one arbitrary string. With this addition,
the tools menu becomes flexible enough to implement basic
rebase support:

[core]
        editor = kwrite
[guitool "Rebase/Abort"]
        cmd = git rebase --abort
        confirm = yes
[guitool "Rebase/Continue"]
        cmd = git rebase --continue
[guitool "Rebase/Skip Commit"]
        cmd = git rebase --skip
        confirm = yes
[guitool "Rebase/Start..."]
        cmd = git rebase $ARGS $REVISION $CUR_BRANCH
        title = Start Rebase
        prompt = Rebase Current Branch
        argprompt = Flags
        revprompt = New Base
        revunmerged = yes

Some of the options, like title or prompt, are intentionally
not included in the Add dialog to avoid clutter. Also, the
dialog handles argprompt and revprompt as boolean vars.

Due to the emphasis on scriptability in the git
design, it is impossible to provide 100% complete
GUI. Currently unaccounted areas include git-svn
and other source control system interfaces, TopGit,
all custom scripts.

This problem can be mitigated by providing basic
customization capabilities in Git Gui. This commit
adds a new Tools menu, which can be configured
to contain items invoking arbitrary shell commands.

The interface is powerful enough to allow calling
both batch text programs like git-svn, and GUI editors.
To support the latter use, the commands have access
to the name of the currently selected file through
the environment.

The rescan function receives a callback command
as its parameter, which is supposed to be executed
after the scan finishes. It is generally used to
update status. However, rescan may initiate a
loading of a diff, which always calls ui_ready after
completion. If the after handler is called before
that, ui_ready will override the new status.

This commit ensures that the after callback is
properly threaded through the diff machinery.

Since it uncovered the fact that force_first_diff
actually didn't work due to an undeclared global
variable, and the desired effects appeared only
because of the race condition between the diff
system and the rescan callback, I also reimplement
this function to make it behave as originally
intended.

With the old implementation any system-wide options appear
to be set locally in the current repository. This commit
adds explicit handling of system options, essentially
interpreting them as customized default_config.

The difficulty in interpreting system options stems from
the fact that simple 'git config' lists all values, while
'git config --global' only values set in ~/.gitconfig,
excluding both local and system options.

  status: show "-v" diff even for initial commit

  define empty tree sha1 as a macro

The space between the commit and the source attribute is not easily
machine-parseable: if we combine --source with --parents and give a SHA1
as a starting point, it's unnecessarily hard to see where the list of
parents ends and the source decoration begins.

Example:
	git show --parents --source $(git rev-list HEAD)

which is admittedly contrived, but can easily happen in scripting.

So use a <tab> instead of a space as the source separator.

The other decorations didn't have this issue, because they were surrounded
by parenthesis, so it's obvious that they aren't parent SHA1's.

It so happens that _visually_ this makes no difference for "git log
--source", since "commit <40-char SHA1>" is 47 characters, so both a space
and a <tab> will end up showing as a single commit. Of course, with
'--pretty=oneline' or '--parents' or '--abbrev-commit' you'll see the
difference.

Originally --with-tree=<tree> was designed for the sole purpose of
checking if a given pathspec makes sense as a parameter to git-commit
using it in conjunction with --error-unmatch.  It had logic to avoid
showing the same entry (one came from the original index, another from the
overlayed tree) twice so that it works with -c (i.e. "show-cached"), but
otherwise it was not designed to work with the flags such as -m, -d, etc.

This teaches the same logic to cover the codepath for -m and -d.
