To give OPT_FILENAME the prefix, we pass the prefix to parse_options()
which passes the prefix to parse_options_start() which sets the prefix
member of parse_opts_ctx accordingly. If there isn't a prefix in the
calling context, passing NULL will suffice.

Even though the underlying function for get_merge_bases() can compute

Before this patch "git merge-base" just exited with error code 1
and without an error message in case it was passed a ref to an
object that is not a commit (for example a tree).
This patch makes it "die" in this case with an error message.
While at it, this patch also refactors the code to get the
commit reference from an argument into a new
"get_commit_reference" function.

When you misuse a git command, you are shown the usage string.
But this is currently shown in the dashed form. So if you just
copy what you see, it will not work, when the dashed form
is no longer supported.
This patch makes git commands show the dash-less version.
For shell scripts that do not specify OPTIONS_SPEC, git-sh-setup.sh
generates a dash-less usage string now.

git_config() only had a function parameter, but no callback data
parameter. This assumes that all callback functions only modify
global variables.
With this patch, every callback gets a void * parameter, and it is hoped
that this will help the libification effort.

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).

Change get_merge_bases() to be able to clean up after itself if
needed by adding a cleanup parameter.
We don't need to save the flags and restore them afterwards anymore;
that was a leftover from before the flags were moved out of the
range used in revision.c. clear_commit_marks() sets them to zero,
which is enough.

When we have only one merge-base candidates in the result list,

The merge-base command acquires a new option, '--all', that causes it
to output all the common ancestor candidates. The "git resolve"
command then uses it to pick the optimum merge base by picking the one
that results in the smallest number of nontrivial merges.

In commit 4f7eb2e5a3 I fixed git-merge-base
getting confused by datestamps that caused it to traverse things in a
non-obvious order.
However, my fix was a very brute-force one, and it had some really
horrible implications for more complex trees with lots of parallell
development. It might end up traversing all the way to the root commit.
Now, normally that isn't that horrible: it's used mainly for merging, and
the bad cases really tend to happen fairly rarely, so if it takes a few
seconds, we're not in too bad shape.
However, gitk will also do the git-merge-base for every merge it shows,
because it basically re-does the trivial merge in order to show the
"interesting" parts. And there we'd really like the result to be
instantaneous.
This patch does that by walking the tree more completely, and using the
same heuristic as git-rev-list to decide "ok, the rest is uninteresting".
In one - hopefully fairly extreme - case, it made a git-merge-base go from
just under five seconds(!) to a tenth of a second on my machine.

Hmm.. Here's a tentative fix. I'm not really happy with it, and maybe
somebody else can come up with a better one. I think this one ends up
being quite a bit more expensive than the old one (it will look up _all_
common parents that have a child that isn't common, and then select the
newest one of the bunch), but I haven't really thought it through very
much.

Fix various things that sparse complains about:
- use NULL instead of 0
- make sure we declare everything properly, or mark it static
- use proper function declarations ("fn(void)" instead of "fn()")

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.
Make pop_most_recent_commit() return the same objects multiple times, but only
if called with different bits to mark.
This is necessary to make merge-base work again.

The old implementation was a nice algorithm, but, unfortunately, it could
be confused in some cases and would not necessarily do the obvious thing
if one argument was decended from the other. This version fixes that by
changing the criterion to the most recent common ancestor.

Also, make it a fatal error to pass in a non-commit object. The callers
never checked, so better check here.
This simplifies merge-base further. It's now so trivial that it's almost
ridiculous.

The question of "best" commit can probably be tweaked almost arbitrarily.
In particular, trying to take things like how big the tree differences
are into account migt be a good idea. This one is just very simple.
