The Porcelainish has become so much usable as the UI that there
is not much reason people should be using the core programs by
hand anymore. At this point we are better off making the
behaviour of the core programs predictable by keeping them
unaffected by the configuration variables. Otherwise they will
become very hard to use as reliable building blocks.
For example, "git-commit -a" internally uses git-diff-files to
figure out the set of paths that need to be updated in the
index, and we should never allow diff.renames that happens to be
in the configuration to interfere (or slow down the process).
The UI level configuration such as showing renamed diff and
coloring are still honored by the Porcelainish ("git log" family
and "git diff"), but not by the core anymore.

This cleans up the use of safe_strncpy() even more. Since it has the
same semantics as strlcpy() use this name instead. Also move the
definition from inside path.c to its own file compat/strlcpy.c, and use
it conditionally at compile time, since some platforms already has
strlcpy(). It's included in the same way as compat/setenv.c.

We've had this notion of a "object_list" for a long time, which eventually
grew a "name" member because some users (notably git-rev-list) wanted to
name each object as it is generated.
That object_list is great for some things, but it isn't all that wonderful
for others, and the "name" member is generally not used by everybody.
This patch splits the users of the object_list array up into two: the
traditional list users, who want the list-like format, and who don't
actually use or want the name. And another class of users that really used
the list as an extensible array, and generally wanted to name the objects.
The patch is fairly straightforward, but it's also biggish. Most of it
really just cleans things up: switching the revision parsing and listing
over to the array makes things like the builtin-diff usage much simpler
(we now see exactly how many members the array has, and we don't get the
objects reversed from the order they were on the command line).
One of the main reasons for doing this at all is that the malloc overhead
of the simple object list was actually pretty high, and the array is just
a lot denser. So this patch brings down memory usage by git-rev-list by
just under 3% (on top of all the other memory use optimizations) on the
mozilla archive.
It does add more lines than it removes, and more importantly, it adds a
whole new infrastructure for maintaining lists of objects, but on the
other hand, the new dynamic array code is pretty obvious. The change to
builtin-diff-tree.c shows a fairly good example of why an array interface
is sometimes more natural, and just much simpler for everybody.

This is really the dregs of my effort to not waste memory in git-rev-list,
and makes barely one percent of a difference in the memory footprint, but
hey, it's also a pretty small patch.
It discards the parent lists and the commit buffer after the commit has
been shown by git-rev-list (and "git log" - which already did the commit
buffer part), and frees the commit list entry that was used by the
revision walker.
The big win would be to get rid of the "refs" pointer in the object
structure (another 5%), because it's only used by fsck. That would require
some pretty major surgery to fsck, though, so I'm timid and did the less
interesting but much easier part instead.
This (percentually) makes a bigger difference to "git log" and friends,
since those are walking _just_ commits, and thus the list entries tend to
be a bigger percentage of the memory use. But the "list all objects" case
does improve too.

This does:
- add a "rev.simplify_history" flag which defaults to on
- it turns it off for "git whatchanged" (which thus now has real
semantics outside of "git log")
- it adds a command line flag ("--full-history") to turn it off for
others (ie you can make "git log" and "gitk" etc get the semantics if
you want to.
Now, just as an example of _why_ you really really really want to simplify
history by default, apply this patch, install it, and try these two
command lines:
gitk --full-history -- git.c
gitk -- git.c
and compare the output.
So with this, you can also now do
git whatchanged -p -- gitweb.cgi
git log -p --full-history -- gitweb.cgi
and it will show the old history of gitweb.cgi, even though it's not
relevant to the _current_ state of the name "gitweb.cgi"
NOTE NOTE NOTE! It will still actually simplify away merges that didn't
change anything at all into either child. That creates these bogus strange
discontinuities if you look at it with "gitk" (look at the --full-history
gitk output for git.c, and you'll see a few strange cases).
So the whole "--parent" thing ends up somewhat bogus with --full-history
because of this, but I'm not sure it's worth even worrying about. I don't
think you'd ever want to really use "--full-history" with the graphical
representation, I just give it as an example exactly to show _why_ doing
so would be insane.
I think this is trivial enough and useful enough to be worth merging into
the stable branch.

Since the "a..b c..d" syntax is interpreted as "b ^a d ^c" as other
range-ish commands, if you want to format a..b and then c..d and end
up with files consecutively numbered, the second run needs to be able
to tell the command what number to start from.
This does not imply --numbered (which gives [PATCH n/m] to the subject).

When called with "--stdout", it still writes to standard output.
Notable differences to git-format-patch:
- since fmt-patch uses the standardized logging machinery, it is
no longer "From nobody", but "From <commit_sha1>",
- the empty lines before and after the "---" just before the
diffstat are no longer there,
- git-format-patch outputs the commit_sha1 just before the first
diff, which fmt-patch does not,
- the file names are no longer output to stdout, but to stderr
(since stdout is freopen()ed all the time), and
- "git fmt-patch HEAD^" does not work as expected: it outputs
*all* commits reachable from HEAD^!
The last one is possibly a showstopper. At least I used to call that
command quite often...
