Update example combined diff format to the current version
$ git diff-tree -p -c fec9ebf16c
and provide complete first chunk in example.
Document combined diff format headers: how "diff header" look like,
which of "extended diff headers" are used with combined diff and how
they look like, differences in two-line from-file/to-file header from
non-combined diff format, chunk header format.
It should be noted that combined diff format was designed for quick
_content_ inspection and renames would work correctly to pick which
blobs from each tree to compare but otherwise not reflected in the
output (the pathnames are not shown).

A new flag, --stdin, allows for a pack to be received over a stream.
When this flag is provided, the pack content is written to either
the named pack file or directly to the object repository under the
same name as produced by git-repack. The pack index is written as
well with the corresponding base name, unless the index name is
overriden with -o.
With this patch, git-index-pack could be used instead of
git-unpack-objects when fetching remote objects but only with
non "thin" packs for now.

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.

Currently it does what git-blame does, but only faster.
More importantly, its internal structure is designed to support
content movement (aka cut-and-paste) more easily by allowing
more than one paths to be taken from the same commit.

When configuration variable `repack.UseDeltaBaseOffset` is set
for the repository, the command passes `--delta-base-offset`
option to `git-pack-objects`; this typically results in slightly
smaller packs, but the generated packs are incompatible with
versions of git older than (and including) v1.4.3.
We will make it default to true sometime in the future, but not
for a while.

This patch does 3 things:
1) Output the number of commits along with the name for each author
(nice to know for long lists spending more than a screen worth of
commit lines).
2) Provide a switch (-n) to sort authors according to their number of
commits instead of author alphabetic order.
3) Provide a switch (-s) to supress commit lines and only keep a
summary of authors and the number of commits for each of them.
And for good measure a short usage is displayed with -h.

This lets you say:
git grep --all-match -e A -e B -e C
to find lines that match A or B or C but limit the matches from
the files that have all of A, B and C.
This is different from
git grep -e A --and -e B --and -e C
in that the latter looks for a single line that has all of these
at the same time.

This adds -d flag to update-ref to allow safe deletion of ref.
Before deleting it, the command checks if the given <oldvalue>
still matches the value the caller thought the ref contained.
Similarly, it also accepts 0{40} or an empty string as <oldvalue>
to allow safe creation of a new ref.

Added --ignore-nodate to allow 'git svn fetch' to import revisions
from Subversion which have '(no date)' listed as the date of the
revision. By default 'git svn fetch' will crash with an error
when encountering such a revision. The user may restart the fetch
operation by adding --ignore-nodate if they want to continue tracking
that repository.
I'm not entirely sure why a centralized version control system such
as Subversion permits revisions to be created with absolutely no
date/time associated with it but it apparently is possible as one
of the Subversion repositories that I'm tracking with 'git svn'
created such a revision on '(no date)' and by '(no user)'.
