When adding a note to an object that already has an existing note, the
current solution is to concatenate the contents of the two notes. However,
the caller may instead wish to _overwrite_ the existing note with the new
note, or maybe even _ignore_ the new note, and keep the existing one. There
might also be other ways of combining notes that are only known to the
caller.
Therefore, instead of unconditionally concatenating notes, we let the caller
specify how to combine notes, by passing in a pointer to a function for
combining notes. The caller may choose to implement its own function for
notes combining, but normally one of the following three conveniently
supplied notes combination functions will be sufficient:
- combine_notes_concatenate() combines the two notes by appending the
contents of the new note to the contents of the existing note.
- combine_notes_overwrite() replaces the existing note with the new note.
- combine_notes_ignore() keeps the existing note, and ignores the new note.
A combine_notes function can be passed to init_notes() to choose a default
combine_notes function for that notes tree. If NULL is given, the notes tree
falls back to combine_notes_concatenate() as the ultimate default.
A combine_notes function can also be passed directly to add_note(), to
control the notes combining behaviour for a note addition in particular.
If NULL is passed, the combine_notes function registered for the given
notes tree is used.

The new struct notes_tree encapsulates access to a specific notes tree.
It is provided to allow callers to make use of several different notes trees
simultaneously.
A struct notes_tree * parameter is added to every function in the notes API.
In all cases, NULL can be passed, in which case the fallback "default" notes
tree (default_notes_tree) is used.

Created by a simple refactoring of initialize_notes().
Also add a new 'flags' parameter, which is a bitwise combination of notes
initialization flags. For now, there is only one flag - NOTES_INIT_EMPTY -
which indicates that the notes tree should not auto-load the contents of
the given (or default) notes ref, but rather should leave the notes tree
initialized to an empty state. This will become useful in the future when
manipulating the notes tree through the notes API.

There is really no reason why only commit objects can be annotated. By
changing the struct commit parameter to get_commit_notes() into a sha1 we
gain the ability to annotate any object type. To reflect this in the function
naming as well, we rename get_commit_notes() to format_note().
This patch also fixes comments and variable names throughout notes.c as a
consequence of the removal of the unnecessary 'commit' restriction.

Commit ade2ca0c (Do not try to remove directories when removing
old links, 2009-10-27) added an expression to a 'test' using an
'-o' or connective. This resulted in the buildsystem generator
mistaking a conditional 'rm' for a linker command. In order to
fix the breakage, we filter out all 'test' commands before then
attempting to identify the commands of interest.

The code used as if return value from basename(3) were stable, but
often the function is implemented to return a pointer to a static
storage internal to it.
Because basename(3) is also allowed to modify its input parameter in
place, casting constness away from the strings we obtained from the
caller and giving them to basename is a no-no.

As the documentation says, this is primarily for debugging, and
in the longer term we should rename it to test-show-index or something.
In the meantime, just avoid xmalloc (which slurps in the rest of git), and
separating out the trivial hex functions into "hex.o".
This results in
[torvalds@nehalem git]$ size git-show-index
text data bss dec hex filename
222818 2276 112688 337782 52776 git-show-index (before)
5696 624 1264 7584 1da0 git-show-index (after)
which is a whole lot better.

Exal Sibeaz pointed out that some git files are way too big, and that
add_files_to_cache() brings in all the diff machinery to any git binary
that needs the basic git SHA1 object operations from read-cache.c. Which
is pretty much all of them.
It's doubly silly, since add_files_to_cache() is only used by builtin
programs (add, checkout and commit), so it's fairly easily fixed by just
moving the thing to builtin-add.c, and avoiding the dependency entirely.
I initially argued to Exal that it would probably be best to try to depend
on smart compilers and linkers, but after spending some time trying to
make -ffunction-sections work and giving up, I think Exal was right, and
the fix is to just do some trivial cleanups like this.
This trivial cleanup results in pretty stunning file size differences.
The diff machinery really is mostly used by just the builtin programs, and
you have things like these trivial before-and-after numbers:
-rwxr-xr-x 1 torvalds torvalds 1727420 2010-01-21 10:53 git-hash-object
-rwxrwxr-x 1 torvalds torvalds 940265 2010-01-21 11:16 git-hash-object
Now, I'm not saying that 940kB is good either, but that's mostly all the
debug information - you can see the real code with 'size':
text data bss dec hex filename
418675 3920 127408 550003 86473 git-hash-object (before)
230650 2288 111728 344666 5425a git-hash-object (after)
ie we have a nice 24% size reduction from this trivial cleanup.
It's not just that one file either. I get:
[torvalds@nehalem git]$ du -s /home/torvalds/libexec/git-core
45640 /home/torvalds/libexec/git-core (before)
33508 /home/torvalds/libexec/git-core (after)
so we're talking 12MB of diskspace here.
(Of course, stripping all the binaries brings the 33MB down to 9MB, so the
whole debug information thing is still the bulk of it all, but that's a
separate issue entirely)
Now, I'm sure there are other things we should do, and changing our
compiler flags from -O2 to -Os would bring the text size down by an
additional almost 20%, but this thing Exal pointed out seems to be some
good low-hanging fruit.

merge-recursive calls write_tree_from_memory() to come up with a virtual
tree, with possible conflict markers inside the blob contents, while
merging multiple common ancestors down. It is a bug to call the function
with unmerged entries in the index, even if the merge to come up with the
common ancestor resulted in conflicts. Otherwise the result won't be
expressible as a tree object.
We _might_ want to suggest the user to set GIT_MERGE_VERBOSITY to 5 and
re-run the merge in the message. At least we will know which part of
process_renames() or process_entry() functions is not correctly handling
the unmerged paths, and it might help us diagnosing the issue.

When "info/refs" is a static file and not behind a CGI handler, some
servers may not handle a GET request for it with a query string
appended (eg. "?foo=bar") properly.
If such a request fails, retry it sans the query string. In addition,
ensure that the "smart" http protocol is not used (a service has to be
specified with "?service=<service name>" to be conformant).
