git-merge-recursive wants an null tree as the fake merge base
while producing the merge result tree. The null tree does not
have to be written out in the object store as it won't be part
of the result, and it is a prime example for using the new
pretend_sha1_file() function.
git-blame needs to register an arbitrary data to in-core index
while annotating a working tree file (or standard input), but
git-blame is a read-only application and the user of it could
even lack the privilege to write into the object store; it is
another good example for pretend_sha1_file().

Warning: this changes the semantics.
This makes "git blame" without any positive rev to start digging
from the working tree copy, which is made into a fake commit
whose sole parent is the HEAD.
It also adds --contents <file> option to pretend as if the
working tree copy has the contents of the named file. You can
use '-' to make the command read from the standard input.
If you want the command to start annotating from the HEAD
commit, you need to explicitly give HEAD parameter.

Otherwise a pathname that has funny characters such as LF would
screw up the parsing programs of the output.
Strictly speaking, this is not backward compatible, but the
current output for pathnames that have embedded LF and such
cannot be sanely parsed anyway, and pathnames that only use
characters from the portable pathname character set won't be
affected.

This adds --incremental option to help GUI porcelains to show
the result from git-blame incrementally. The output gives the
origin information in the same format as the porcelain format.
The first line has commit object name, the line number of the
first line in the group in the original file, the line number of
that file in the final image, and number of lines in the group.
Then subsequent lines show the metainformation for the commit
when the commit is shown for the first time, except the filename
information is always shown (we cannot even make it conditional
to -C option as blame always follows the renaming of the file
wholesale).

This is a mechanical clean-up of the way *.c files include
system header files.
(1) sources under compat/, platform sha-1 implementations, and
xdelta code are exempt from the following rules;
(2) the first #include must be "git-compat-util.h" or one of
our own header file that includes it first (e.g. config.h,
builtin.h, pkt-line.h);
(3) system headers that are included in "git-compat-util.h"
need not be included in individual C source files.
(4) "git-compat-util.h" does not have to include subsystem
specific header files (e.g. expat.h).

When blame.blankboundary is set (or -b option is given), commit
object names are blanked out in the "human readable" output
format for boundary commits.

When blaming with revision ranges, often many lines are attributed
to different commits at the boundary, but they are not interesting
for the purpose of finding project history during that revision range.
This outputs the lines blamed on boundary commits differently. When
showing "human format" output, their SHA-1 are shown with '^' prefixed.
In "porcelain format", the commit will be shown with an extra attribute

It turns out that pickaxe reads the same blob repeatedly while
blame can reuse the blob already read for the parent when
handling a child commit when it's parent's turn to pass its
blame to the grandparent. Have a cache in the origin structure
to keep the blob there, which will be garbage collected when the
origin loses the last reference to it.

The reason to do this is the same as in the previous change for
line copy detection within the same file (-M).
Also this fixes -C and -C -C (aka find-copies-harder) logic; in
this application we are not interested in the similarity
matching diffcore-rename makes, because we are only interested
in scanning files that were modified, or in the case of -C -C,
scanning all files in the parent and we want to do that
ourselves.

When assigning blames for code movements across file boundaries,
we used to iterate over blame entries (i.e. groups of lines to
be blamed) in the outer loop and compared each entry with paths
in the parent commit in an inner loop. This meant that we
opened the blob data from each path number of times.
Reorganize the loop so that we read the same path only once, and
compare it against all relevant blame entries.
This should perform better, but seems to give mixed results,
though.

After finding out which path in the parent to scan to pass
blames, using get_tree_entry() to extract the blob information
again was quite wasteful, since diff-tree already gave us that
information. Separate the function to create an origin out as
get_origin().
You'll never know what is more efficient unless you try and/or
think hard. I somehow thought that extracting one known path
out of commit's tree is cheaper than running a diff-tree for the
current path between the commit and its parent, but it is not
the case. In real, non-toy projects, most commits do not touch
the path you are interested in, and if the path is a few levels
away from the toplevel, whole-subdirectory comparison logic
diff-tree allows us to skip opening lower subdirectories.
This commit rewrites find_origin() function to use a single-path
diff-tree to see if the parent has the same blob as the current
suspect, which is cheaper than extracting the blob information
using get_tree_entry() and comparing it with what the current
suspect has. This shaves about 6% overhead when annotating
kernel/sched.c in the Linux kernel repository on my machine.
The saving rises to 25% for arch/i386/kernel/Makefile.

It used to be that we can compare the address of the origin
structure to determine if they are the same because they are
always registered with scoreboard. After introduction of the
loop to try finding the best split, that is not true anymore.
The current code has rather serious leaks with origin structure,
but more importantly it gets confused when two origins that
points at the same commit and same path.
We might eventually have to refcount and gc origin, but let's

This adds scoring logic to blame_entry to prevent blames on very

This completes the initial round of git-pickaxe. In addition to
the detection of line movements we already have, this finds new
lines that were created by moving or cutting-and-pasting lines
from different files in the parent.
With this,
git pickaxe -f -n -C v1.4.0 -- revision.c
finds that a major part of that file actually came from
rev-list.c when Linus split the latter at commit ae563642 and
blames them to earlier commits that touch rev-list.c.

This makes pickaxe more intelligent than the classic blame.
A typical example is a change that moves one static C function
from lower part of the file to upper part of the same file,
because you added a new caller in the middle.
The versions in the parent and the child would look like this:
parent child
A static foo() {
B ...
C }
D A
E B
F C
G D
static foo() { ... call foo();
... E
} F
H G
H
With the classic blame algorithm, we can blame lines A B C D E F
G and H to the parent. The child is guilty of introducing the
line "... call foo();", and the blame is placed on the child.
However, the classic blame algorithm fails to notice that the
implementation of foo() at the top of the file is not new, and
moved from the lower part of the parent.
This commit introduces detection of such line movements, and
correctly blames the lines that were simply moved in the file to
the parent.
