Sergey Vlasov 501524e938 Documentation: Fix howto/revert-branch-rebase.html generation
The rule for howto/*.html used "$?", which expands to the list of all
newer prerequisites, including asciidoc.conf added by another rule.
"$<" should be used instead.

Junio C Hamano 8938045a4e git-apply --reject: finishing touches.
After a failed "git am" attempt:

	git apply --reject --verbose .dotest/patch

applies hunks that are applicable and leaves *.rej files the
rejected hunks, and it reports what it is doing.  With --index,
files with a rejected hunk do not get their index entries
updated at all, so "git diff" will show the hunks that
successfully got applied.

Without --verbose to remind the user that the patch updated some
other paths cleanly, it is very easy to lose track of the status
of the working tree, so --reject implies --verbose.

Rene Scharfe e4fbbfe9ec Add git-zip-tree
In the Windows world ZIP files are better supported than tar files.
Windows even includes built-in support for ZIP files nowadays.

git-zip-tree is similar to git-tar-tree; it creates ZIP files out of
git trees.  It stores the commit ID (if available) in a ZIP file comment
which can be extracted by unzip.

There's still quite some room for improvement: this initial version
supports no symlinks, calls write() way too often (three times per file)
and there is no unit test.

Eric Wong b22d449721 git-svn: add the 'dcommit' command
This is a high-level wrapper around the 'commit-diff' command
and used to produce cleaner history against the mirrored repository
through rebase/reset usage.

It's basically a more polished version of this:

for i in `git rev-list --no-merges remotes/git-svn..HEAD | tac`; do
	git-svn commit-diff $i~1 $i
done
git reset --hard remotes/git-svn

By default, git-tar-tree(1) sets file and directories modes to 0666
or 0777. While this is both useful and acceptable for projects such
as the Linux Kernel, it might be excessive for other projects. With
this variable, it becomes possible to tell git-tar-tree(1) to apply
a specific umask to the modes above. The special value "user"
indicates that the user's current umask will be used. This should be
enough for most projects, as it will lead to the same permissions as
git-checkout(1) would use. The default value remains 0, which means
world read-write.

Linus Torvalds 93821bd97a sha1_file: add the ability to parse objects in "pack file format"
The pack-file format is slightly different from the traditional git
object format, in that it has a much denser binary header encoding.
The traditional format uses an ASCII string with type and length
information, which is somewhat wasteful.

A new object format starts with uncompressed binary header
followed by compressed payload -- this will allow us later to
copy the payload straight to packfiles.

Obviously they cannot be read by older versions of git, so for
now new object files are created with the traditional format.
core.legacyheaders configuration item, when set to false makes
the code write in new format for people to experiment with.

Joachim B Haga 12f6c308d5 Make zlib compression level configurable, and change default.
With the change in default, "git add ." on kernel dir is about
twice as fast as before, with only minimal (0.5%) change in
object size. The speed difference is even more noticeable
when committing large files, which is now up to 8 times faster.

The configurability is through setting core.compression = [-1..9]
which maps to the zlib constants; -1 is the default, 0 is no
compression, and 1..9 are various speed/size tradeoffs, 9
being slowest.

Rene Scharfe 0d2c9d67d9 Add '...' operator for revisions
'A...B' is a shortcut for 'A B --not $(git-merge-base --all A B)'.
This XOR-like operation is called symmetric difference in set
theory.

The symbol '...' has been chosen because it's rather similar to the
existing '..' operator and the somewhat more natural caret ('^') is
already taken.

Makefiles in subdirectories now use existing value of INSTALL, bindir,
mandir if it is set, allowing those to be set in main Makefile or in

Accidentally it renames bin to bindir in Documentation/Makefile
(should be bindir from start, but is unused, perhaps to be removed).

Junio C Hamano 7d0c68871a git-merge --squash
Some people tend to do many little commits on a topic branch,
recording all the trials and errors, and when the topic is
reasonably cooked well, would want to record the net effect of
the series as one commit on top of the mainline, removing the
cruft from the history.  The topic is then abandoned or forked
off again from that point at the mainline.

The barebone porcelainish that comes with core git tools does
not officially support such operation, but you can fake it by
using "git pull --no-merge" when such a topic branch is not a
strict superset of the mainline, like this:

	git checkout mainline
	git pull --no-commit . that-topic-branch
	: fix conflicts if any
	rm -f .git/MERGE_HEAD
        git commit -a -m 'consolidated commit log message'
	git branch -f that-topic-branch ;# now fully merged

This however does not work when the topic branch is a fast
forward of the mainline, because normal "git pull" will never
create a merge commit in such a case, and there is nothing
special --no-commit could do to begin with.

This patch introduces a new option, --squash, to support such a
workflow officially in both fast-forward case and true merge
case.  The user-level operation would be the same in both cases:

	git checkout mainline
        git pull --squash . that-topic-branch
        : fix conflicts if any -- naturally, there would be
        : no conflict if fast forward.
	git commit -a -m  'consolidated commit log message'
	git branch -f that-topic-branch ;# now fully merged

When the current branch is already up-to-date with respect to
the other branch, there truly is nothing to do, so the new
option does not have any effect.

This was brought up in #git IRC channel recently.
