The new git-fast-import command is not intended to be invoked
directly by an end user. So offering it as a possible completion
for a subcommand is not very useful.

Most users don't need the pack boundary information that fast-import
was printing to standard output, especially if they were calling
it with --quiet.
Those users who do want this information probably want it captured
so they can go back and use it to repack the imported repository.
So dumping the boundary commits to a log file makes more sense then
printing them to standard output.

Change installation instructions to using either "(require 'git-blame)"
or appropriate autoload instruction in GNU Emacs init file, .emacs
This required adding "(provide 'git-blame)" at the end of git-blame.el
and adding [preliminary] docstring to `git-blame-mode' function for
consistency (to mark function as interactive in `autoload' we have to
provide docstring as DOCSTRING is third arg, and INTERACTIVE fourth,
and both are optional). `git-blame-mode' is marked to autoload.
While at it ensure that we add `git-blame-mode' to `minor-mode-alist'
only once (in a way that does not depend on `cl' package).

When refs/remotes/gfi/master and refs/remotes/gfi/HEAD exist,
and the latter is a symref that points at the former, dwim_ref()
resolves string "gfi" to "refs/remotes/gfi/master" as expected,
but dwim_log() does not understand "gfi@{1.day}" and needs to be
told "gfi/master@{1.day}". This is confusing.

This is an example fast-import frontend, in less than 100 lines
of Perl. It accepts one or more tar archives on the command line,
passes them through gzcat/bzcat/zcat if necessary, parses out the
individual file headers and feeds all contained data to fast-import.
No temporary files are involved.
Each tar is treated as one commit, with the commit timestamp coming
from the oldest file modification date found within the tar.
Each tar is also tagged with an annotated tag, using the basename
of the tar file as the name of the tag.
Currently symbolic links and hard links are not handled by the
importer. The file checksums are also not verified.

For commit messages, we should really put the "line_termination" when we
output the character in between different commits, *not* between the
commit and the diff. The diff goes hand-in-hand with the commit, it
shouldn't be separated from it with the termination character.
So this:
- uses the termination character for true inter-commit spacing
- uses a regular newline between the commit log and the diff
We had it the other way around.
For the normal case where the termination character is '\n', this
obviously doesn't change anything at all, since we just switched two
identical characters around. So it's very safe - it doesn't change any
normal usage, but it definitely fixes "git log -z".
By fixing "git log -z", you can now also do insane things like
git log -p -z |
grep -z "some patch expression" |
tr '\0' '\n' |
less -S
and you will see only those commits that have the "some patch expression"
in their commit message _or_ their patches.
(This is slightly different from 'git log -S"some patch expression"',
since the latter requires the expression to literally *change* in the
patch, while the "git log -p -z | grep .." approach will see it if it's
just an unchanged _part_ of the patch context)
Of course, if you actually do something like the above, you're probably
insane, but hey, it works!
Try the above command line for a demonstration (of course, you need to
change the "some patch expression" to be something relevant). The old
behaviour of "git log -p -z" was useless (and got things completely wrong
for log entries without patches).

When we remove the last reflog in a directory, opendir() would
succeed and we would iterate over its dirents, expecting retval
to be initialized to zero and setting it to non-zero only upon
seeing an error. If the directory is empty, oops!, we do not
have anybody that touches retval.
The problem is because we initialize retval to errno even on
success from opendir(), which would leave the errno unmolested.

If the frontend asks us to checkpoint (via the explicit checkpoint
command) its probably because they are afraid the current import
will crash/fail/whatever and want to make sure they can pickup from
the last checkpoint. To do that sort of recovery, we will need the
current tip of every branch and tag available at the next startup.

Often users will be running fast-import from within a larger frontend
process, and this may be a frequent periodic tool such as a future
edition of `git-svn fetch`. We don't want to bombard users with our
large stats output if they won't be interested in it, so `--quiet`
is now an option to make gfi be more silent.

Some frontends may not be able to (easily) keep track of which files
are included in the branch, and which aren't. Performing this
tracking can be tedious and error prone for the frontend to do,
especially if its foreign data source cannot supply the changed
path list on a per-commit basis.
fast-import now allows a frontend to request that a branch's tree
be wiped clean (reset to the empty tree) at the start of a commit,
allowing the frontend to feed in all paths which belong on the branch.
This is ideal for a tar-file importer frontend, for example, as
the frontend just needs to reformat the tar data stream into a gfi
data stream, which may be something a few Perl regexps can take
care of. :)
