As Shawn pointed out, not all temporary file creation routines can
ensure that the generated temporary file is of a certain length.
e.g. Java's createTempFile(prefix, suffix). So just depend on the
prefix 'tmp_obj_' for detection.
Update prune, and fix the "fix" introduced by a08c53a1 :)

Since 5723fe7e, temporary objects are now created in their final destination
directories, rather than in .git/objects/. Teach fsck to recognize and
ignore the temporary objects it encounters, and teach prune to remove them.

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.

Write errors when repacking (eg, due to out-of-space conditions)
can leave temporary packs (and possibly other files beginning
with "tmp_") lying around which no existing
codepath removes and which aren't obvious to the casual user.
These can also be multi-megabyte files wasting noticeable space.
Unfortunately there's no way to definitely tell in builtin-prune
that a tmp_ file is not being used by a concurrent process,
such as a fetch. However, it is documented that pruning should
only be done on a quiet repository and --expire is honoured
(using code from Johannes Schindelin, along with a test case
he wrote) so that its safety is the same as that of loose
object pruning.
Since they might be signs of a problem (unlike orphaned loose
objects) the names of any removed files are printed.

Earlier, 'git prune' would prune all loose unreachable objects.
This could be quite dangerous, as the objects could be used in
an ongoing operation.
This patch adds a mode to expire only loose, unreachable objects
which are older than a certain time. For example, by
git prune --expire 14.days
you can prune only those objects which are loose, unreachable
and older than 14 days (and thus probably outdated).
The implementation uses st.st_mtime rather than st.st_ctime,
because it can be tested better, using 'touch -d <time>' (and
omitting the test when the platform does not support that
command line switch).

We currently have two parallel notation for dealing with object types
in the code: a string and a numerical value. One of them is obviously
redundent, and the most used one requires more stack space and a bunch
of strcmp() all over the place.
This is an initial step for the removal of the version using a char array
found in object reading code paths. The patch is unfortunately large but
there is no sane way to split it in smaller parts without breaking the
system.

This reverts commit 9b088c4e39.
Protecting 'mature' objects does not make it any safer. We should
admit that git-prune is inherently unsafe when run in parallel with
other operations without involving unwarranted locking overhead,
and with the latest git, even rebase and reset would not immediately
create crufts anyway.
This option gives grace period to objects that are unreachable
from the refs from getting pruned.
The default value is 24 hours and may be changed using
gc.prunegrace.

This moves major part of builtin-prune into a separate file,
reachable.c. It is used to mark the objects that are reachable
from refs, and optionally from reflogs.
The patch looks very large, but if you look at it with diff -C,
which this message is formatted in, most of them are copied
lines and there are very little additions.

I want to make the first part of 'git prune' that marks the
reachable objects callable as a library, so this starts the
first step toward the goal by making the callchain to pass
rev_info structure as an argument.
No functionality change should be in this step.

prune_object() in show_only mode would previously just show the path to the
object that would be deleted. The path the object is stored in shouldn't be
shown to users, they only know about sha1 identifiers so show that instead.
Further, the sha1 alone isn't that useful for examining what is going to be
deleted. This patch also adds the object type to the output, which makes it
easy to pick out, say, the commits and use git-show to display them.

Both the git-prune manpage and everday.txt say that git-prune should also prune
unpacked objects that are also found in packs, by running git prune-packed.
Junio thought this was "a regression when prune was rewritten as a built-in."
So modify prune to call prune-packed again.

This adds a "int *flag" parameter to resolve_ref() and makes
for_each_ref() family to call callback function with an extra
"int flag" parameter. They are used to give two bits of
information (REF_ISSYMREF and REF_ISPACKED) about the ref.

This is a long overdue fix to the API for for_each_ref() family
of functions. It allows the callers to specify a callback data
pointer, so that the caller does not have to use static
variables to communicate with the callback funciton.
The updated for_each_ref() family takes a function of type
int (*fn)(const char *, const unsigned char *, void *)
and a void pointer as parameters, and calls the function with
the name of the ref and its SHA-1 with the caller-supplied void
pointer as parameters.
The commit updates two callers, builtin-name-rev.c and
builtin-pack-refs.c as an example.

Like xmalloc and xrealloc xstrdup dies with a useful message if
the native strdup() implementation returns NULL rather than a
valid pointer.
I just tried to use xstrdup in new code and found it to be missing.
However I expected it to be present as xmalloc and xrealloc are
already commonly used throughout the code.

Any git command that expects to work in a subdirectory of a project, and
that reads the git config files (which is just about all of them) needs to
make sure that it does the "setup_git_directory()" call before it tries to
read the config file.
This means, among other things, that we need to move the call out of
"init_revisions()", and into the caller.
This does the mostly trivial conversion to do that.

This actually removes the objects to be pruned, unless you specify "-n"
(at which point it will just tell you which files it would prune).
This doesn't do the pack-file pruning that the shell-script used to do,
but if somebody really wants to, they could add it easily enough. I wonder
how useful it is, though, considering that "git repack -a -d" is just a
lot more efficient and generates a better end result.
