To prevent a race condition between `index-pack --stdin` and
`repack -a -d` where the repack deletes the newly created pack
file before any refs are updated to reference objects contained
within it we mark the pack file as one that should be kept. This
removes it from the list of packs that `repack -a -d` will consider
for removal.
Callers such as `receive-pack` which want to invoke `index-pack`
should use this new --keep option to prevent the newly created pack
and index file pair from being deleted before they have finished any
related ref updates. Only after all ref updates have been finished
should the associated .keep file be removed.

During `git repack -a -d` only repack objects which are loose or
which reside in an active (a non-kept) pack. This allows the user
to keep large packs as-is without continuous repacking and can be
very helpful on large repositories. It should also help us resolve
a race condition between `git repack -a -d` and the new pack store
functionality in `git-receive-pack`.
Kept packs are those which have a corresponding .keep file in
$GIT_OBJECT_DIRECTORY/pack. That is pack-X.pack will be kept
(not repacked and not deleted) if pack-X.keep exists in the same
directory when `git repack -a -d` starts.
Currently this feature is not documented and there is no user
interface to keep an existing pack.

This allows us to pass just the file name of a pack rather than
the complete path when we want pack-objects to consider its
contents as though they were loose objects. This can be helpful
if $GIT_OBJECT_DIRECTORY contains shell metacharacters which make
it cumbersome to pass complete paths safely in a shell script.

This adds "keep-pack" extension to send-pack vs receive pack protocol,
and makes the receiver invoke "index-pack --stdin --fix-thin".
With this, you can ask send-pack not to explode the result into
loose objects on the receiving end.
I've patched has_sha1_file() to re-check for added packs just
like is done in read_sha1_file() for now, but I think the static
"re-prepare" interface for packs was a mistake. Creation of a
new pack inside a process that needs to read objects in them
back ought to be a rare event, so we are better off making the
callers (such as receive-pack that calls "index-pack --stdin
--fix-thin") explicitly call re-prepare. That way we do not
have to penalize ordinary users of read_sha1_file() and
has_sha1_file().
We would need to fix this someday.

The three-way merge by git-read-tree does not complain about
presense of the file in the working tree that is involved in a

The three-way merge complained unconditionally when a path that
does not exist in the index is involved in a merge when it
existed in the working tree. If we are merging an old version
that had that path tracked, but the path is not tracked anymore,
and if we are merging that old version in, the result will be
that the path is not tracked. In that case we should not
complain.

Now that index-pack can be streamed with a pack, it is probably a good
idea to use it directly instead of creating a temporary file and running
index-pack afterwards. This way index-pack can abort early whenever a
corruption is encountered even if the pack has not been fully
downloaded, it can display a progress percentage as it knows how much to
expects, and it is a bit faster since the pack indexing is partially
done as data is received. Using fetch -k doesn't need to disable thin
pack generation on the remote end either.

This patch on top of 'next' makes built-in git-cherry handle root
commits.
It moves the static function log-tree.c::diff_root_tree() to
tree-diff.c and makes it more similar to diff_tree_sha1() by
shuffling around arguments and factoring out the call to
log_tree_diff_flush(). Consequently the name is changed to
diff_root_tree_sha1(). It is a version of diff_tree_sha1() that
compares the empty tree (= root tree) against a single 'real' tree.
This function is then used in get_patch_id() to compute patch IDs
for initial commits instead of SEGFAULTing, as the current code
does if confronted with parentless commits.

It appears that git-unpack-objects writes the last part of the input
buffer to stdout after the pack has been parsed. This looks a bit
suspicious since the last fill() might have filled the buffer up to
the 4096 byte limit and more data might still be pending on stdin,
but since this is about being a drop-in replacement for unpack-objects
let's simply duplicate the same behavior for now.

"new file" and "deleted file" were already reported in the
original code, but the logic was not as transparent as it could
have. This uses a few variables and more comments to clarify
the flow. The rule is: (1) if a path exists in the merge result
when no parent had it, we report "new" (otherwise it came from
the parents, as opposed to have added by the evil merge). (2) if
the path does not exist in the merge result, it is "deleted".
Since we can say "new" and "deleted", there is no reason not to
follow the /dev/null convention. This fixes it.
Appending function name after @@@ ... @@@ is trivial, so
implement it.

On repo.or.cz, I want to support project 'forks', which are meant
for repositories which are spinoffs of a given project and share
its objects database through the alternates mechanism. But another
(and perhaps even greater) incentive for that is that those 'forked
projects' do not clutter the main project index but are completely
grouped inside of the project view.
A forked project is just like a normal project, but given project
$projectroot/$projname.git, the forked project resides in directory
$projectroot/$projname/$forkname.git. This is a somewhat arbitrary
naming rule, but I think that for now it's fine; if someone will need
something wildly different, let them submit a patch. The 'forked'
mode is by default off and can be turned on in runtime gitweb
configuration just like other features.
A project having forks is marked by a '+' (pointing to the list of
forks) in the project list (this could become some cutesy AJAXy
DHTML in the future), there is a forks section in the project
summary similar to the heads and tags sections, and of course
a forks view which looks the same as the root project list.
Forks can be recursive.

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.
