We have deprecated the old environment variable names for quite a
while and now it's time to remove them. Gone are:
SHA1_FILE_DIRECTORIES AUTHOR_DATE AUTHOR_EMAIL AUTHOR_NAME
COMMIT_AUTHOR_EMAIL COMMIT_AUTHOR_NAME SHA1_FILE_DIRECTORY

As promised, this is the "big tool rename" patch. The primary differences
since 0.99.6 are:
(1) git-*-script are no more. The commands installed do not
have any such suffix so users do not have to remember if
something is implemented as a shell script or not.
(2) Many command names with 'cache' in them are renamed with
'index' if that is what they mean.
There are backward compatibility symblic links so that you and
Porcelains can keep using the old names, but the backward
compatibility support is expected to be removed in the near
future.

Solaris 8 doesn't have the newer unsetenv() and setenv()
functions, so replace them with putenv(). The one use of
unsetenv() in fsck-cache.c now sets GIT_ALTERNATE_OBJECT_
DIRECTORIES to the empty string. Every place that var
is used, NULLs are also replaced with empty strings, so
it's ok.

Omitting the first branch in ?: is a GNU extension. Cute,

It was a mistake to use GIT_ALTERNATE_OBJECT_DIRECTORIES
environment variable to specify what alternate object pools to
look for missing objects when working with an object database.
It is not a property of the process running the git commands,
but a property of the object database that is partial and needs
other object pools to complete the set of objects it lacks.
This patch allows you to have $GIT_OBJECT_DIRECTORY/info/alternates
whose contents is in exactly the same format as the environment
variable, to let an object database name alternate object pools
it depends on.

We historically used to be very careful in fsck-cache, but when it was
re-written to use "parse_object()" instead of parsing everything by
hand, it lost a bit of the checks. This, together with the previous
commit, should make it do more proper commit object syntax checks.
Also add a "--strict" flag, which warns about the old-style "0664" file
mode bits, which shouldn't exist in modern trees, but that happened
early on in git trees and that the default git-fsck-cache thus silently
accepts.

The location alt_odb[j].name[0..] is filled with ??/?{38} to form a sha1
filename to try, but I was too lazy to allocate a copy, so while
fsck_object_dir() is running for the directory, the filenames ??/?{38}
are filled after NUL (usually and always the location should have '/'),
making them "not found".
This should fix it.

In particular, check that it's a symlink, and points to refs/heads/. We
depend on that these days not only for "git checkout", but also because
fsck and others only check for references in the .git/refs/
subdirectory, not things like HEAD itself.
Nico pointed out that having verify_pack.c and verify-pack.c was
confusing. Rename verify_pack.c to pack-check.c as suggested,
and enhances the verification done quite a bit.
- Built-in sha1_file unpacking knows that a base object of a
deltified object _must_ be in the same pack, and takes
advantage of that fact.
- Earlier verify-pack command only checked the SHA1 sum for the
entire pack file and did not look into its contents. It now
checks everything idx file claims to have unpacks correctly.
- It now has a hook to give more detailed information for
objects contained in the pack under -v flag.

Given a list of <pack>.idx files, this command validates the
index file and the corresponding .pack file for consistency.
This patch also uses the same validation mechanism in fsck-cache
when the --full flag is used.
During normal operation, sha1_file.c verifies that a given .idx
file matches the .pack file by comparing the SHA1 checksum
stored in .idx file and .pack file as a minimum sanity check.
We may further want to check the pack signature and version when
we map the pack, but that would be a separate patch.
Earlier, errors to map a pack file was not flagged fatal but led
to a random fatal error later. This version explicitly die()s
when such an error is detected.

The fsck-cache complains if objects referred to by files in .git/refs/
or objects stored in files under .git/objects/??/ are not found as
stand-alone SHA1 files (i.e. found in alternate object pools
GIT_ALTERNATE_OBJECT_DIRECTORIES or packed archives stored under
.git/objects/pack).
Although this is a good semantics to maintain consistency of a single
.git/objects directory as a self contained set of objects, it sometimes
is useful to consider it is OK as long as these "outside" objects are
available.
This commit introduces a new flag, --standalone, to git-fsck-cache.
When it is not specified, connectivity checks and .git/refs pointer
checks are taught that it is OK when expected objects do not exist under
.git/objects/?? hierarchy but are available from an packed archive or in
an alternate object pool.
Another new flag, --full, makes git-fsck-cache to check not only the
current GIT_OBJECT_DIRECTORY but also objects found in alternate object
pools and packed GIT archives.a

We used to ignore unreachable tags, which just causes problems: it makes
"git prune" leave them around, but since we'll have prune everything
that tag points to, the tag object really should be removed too.
So remove the code that made us think tags were always reachable.
This adds knowledge of delta objects to fsck-cache and various object
parsing code. A new switch to git-fsck-cache is provided to display the
maximum delta depth found in a repository.

explicit references for reachability analysis.
We already had that as separate logic in git-prune-script, so this
is not a new special case - it's an old special case moved into
fsck, making normal usage be much simpler.
This is a follow-up fix to the earlier "Notice index that has
path and path/file and refuse to write such a tree" patch.
With this fix, git-fsck-cache complains if a tree object stores

SHA1_FILE_DIRECTORIES environment variable is a colon separated paths

The tree object parsing used to get the executable bit wrong,
and didn't know about symlinks. Also, fsck really wants the
full mode value so that it can verify the other bits for sanity,
so save it all in struct tree_entry.
(updated from the version posted to GIT mailing list).
When a new blob is registered with update-cache, and before the cache
is written as a tree and committed, git-fsck-cache will find the blob
unreachable. This patch adds a new flag, "--cache" to git-fsck-cache,
with which it keeps such blobs from considered "unreachable".
The git-prune-script is updated to use this new flag. At the same time
it adds .git/refs/*/* to the set of default locations to look for heads,
which should be consistent with expectations from Cogito users.
Without this fix, "diff-cache -p --cached" after git-prune-script has
pruned the blob object will fail mysteriously and git-write-tree would
also fail.

We check the ordering of the entries, and we verify that none
of the entries has a slash in it (this allows us to remove the
hacky "has_full_path" member from the tree structure, since we
now just test it by walking the tree entries instead).
This improves the cold-cache behaviour on most filesystems,
since it makes the fsck access patterns more regular on
the disk, rather than seeking back and forth.
Note the "most". Not all filesystems have any relationship
between inode number and location on disk.
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.
Show the types of objects involved in broken links, and don't bother
warning about unreachable tag files (if somebody cares about tags,
they'll use the --tags flag to see them).
With support for parse_object() and tags in the core, fsck_cache can just
call them, and can be simplified a bit.

We should _not_ mark a blob object "parsed" just because we
looked it up: it gets marked that way only once we've actually
seen it. Otherwise we can never notice a missing blob.
This ports fsck-cache to use parsing functions. Note that performance
could be improved here by only reading each object once, but this requires
somewhat more complicated flow control.
