When cloning into a non-bare repository, e.g. "git clone $URL mine",
we used to report that we are cloning into "mine/.git". Reword the
report to say "Cloning into mine" instead, as that matches what the
end-user asked for closer.
Make the message for "git clone --bare $URL mine" to say "Cloning
into bare repository mine" do make the distinction between this case and
the above stand out a bit more prominently.

Currently when using a remote helper to clone a repository, the
remote helper will be passed the url of the target repository as
first argument (which represents the name of the remote). This name
is extracted from transport->remote->name, which is set by
builtin/clone.c when it calls remote_get with argv[0] as argument.
Fix this by passing the name remote will be set up as instead.
However, setup_reference calls remote_get before the remote is
added to the config file. This will result in an improperly
configured remote (in memory) if later on remote_get is called
with an argument that is not equal to the initial remote_get call
in setup_reference. Fix this by delaying the remote_get call until
after the remote has been added to the config file.

This shrinks the top-level directory a bit, and makes it much more

builtin-shortlog.c builtin-show-branch.c builtin-show-ref.c

[torvalds@nehalem git]$ em builtin-shor<tab>
builtin-shortlog.c builtin-shortlog.o
[torvalds@nehalem git]$ em builtin-shortlog.c

[torvalds@nehalem git]$ em buil<tab> [type]

[torvalds@nehalem git]$ em builtin [auto-completes to]
[torvalds@nehalem git]$ em builtin/sh<tab> [type]

[torvalds@nehalem git]$ em builtin/shor<tab> [type]
shortlog.c shortlog.o
[torvalds@nehalem git]$ em builtin/shortlog.c
which doesn't seem all that different, but not having that annoying
break in "Display all 180 possibilities?" is quite a relief.
NOTE! If you do this in a clean tree (no object files etc), or using an
editor that has auto-completion rules that ignores '*.o' files, you
won't see that annoying 'Display all 180 possibilities?' message - it
will just show the choices instead. I think bash has some cut-off
around 100 choices or something.
So the reason I see this is that I'm using an odd editory, and thus
don't have the rules to cut down on auto-completion. But you can
simulate that by using 'ls' instead, or something similar.

When we use -b <branch>, we may checkout something else than what the
remote's HEAD references, but we still used remote_head to supply the
new ref value to the post-checkout hook, which is wrong.
So instead of using remote_head to find the value to be passed to the
post-checkout hook, we have to use our_head_points_at, which is always
correctly setup, even if -b is not used.
This also fixes a segfault when "clone -b <branch>" is used with a
remote repo that doesn't have a valid HEAD, as in such a case
remote_head is NULL, but we still tried to access it.

Current behavior of 'git clone' when not using --mirror is to fetch
everything from the peer, and then filter out unwanted refs just before
writing them out to the cloned repository. This may become highly
inefficient if the peer has an unusual ref namespace, or if it simply
has "remotes" refs of its own, and those locally unwanted refs are
connecting to a large set of objects which becomes unreferenced as soon
as they are fetched.
Let's filter out those unwanted refs from the peer _before_ asking it
what refs we want to fetch instead, which is the most logical thing to
do anyway.

A local clone without hardlinks copies all objects, including dangling
ones, to the new repository. Since the mtimes are renewed, those
dangling objects cannot be pruned by "git gc --prune", even if they
would have been old enough for pruning in the original repository.

in the clone just like it did in the original.

The current code just leaves the transport in whatever state
it was in after performing the fetch. For a non-empty clone
over the git protocol, the transport code already
disconnects at the end of the fetch.
But for an empty clone, we leave the connection hanging, and
eventually close the socket when clone exits. This causes
the remote upload-pack to complain "the remote end hung up
unexpectedly". While this message is harmless to the clone
itself, it is unnecessarily scary for a user to see and may
pollute git-daemon logs.
This patch just explicitly calls disconnect after we are
done with the remote end, which sends a flush packet to
upload-pack and cleanly disconnects, avoiding the error
message.
Other transports are unaffected or slightly improved:
- for a non-empty repo over the git protocol, the second
disconnect is a no-op (since we are no longer connected)
- for "walker" transports (like HTTP or FTP), we actually
free some used memory (which previously just sat until
the clone process exits)
- for "rsync", disconnect is always a no-op anyway

Many projects using submodules expect all submodules to be checked out
in order to build/work correctly. A common command sequence for
developers on such projects is:
git clone url/to/project
cd project
git submodule update --init (--recursive)
This patch introduces the --recursive option to git-clone. The new
option causes git-clone to recursively clone and checkout all
submodules of the cloned project. Hence, the above command sequence
can be reduced to:
git clone --recursive url/to/project
--recursive is ignored if no checkout is done by the git-clone.
The patch also includes documentation and a selftest.

There are a few remaining ones, but this fixes the trivial ones. It boils
down to two main issues that sparse complains about:
- warning: Using plain integer as NULL pointer
Sparse doesn't like you using '0' instead of 'NULL'. For various good
reasons, not the least of which is just the visual confusion. A NULL
pointer is not an integer, and that whole "0 works as NULL" is a
historical accident and not very pretty.
A few of these remain: zlib is a total mess, and Z_NULL is just a 0.
I didn't touch those.
- warning: symbol 'xyz' was not declared. Should it be static?
Sparse wants to see declarations for any functions you export. A lack
of a declaration tends to mean that you should either add one, or you
should mark the function 'static' to show that it's in file scope.
A few of these remain: I only did the ones that should obviously just
be made static.
That 'wt_status_submodule_summary' one is debatable. It has a few related
flags (like 'wt_status_use_color') which _are_ declared, and are used by
builtin-commit.c. So maybe we'd like to export it at some point, but it's
not declared now, and not used outside of that file, so 'static' it is in
this patch.

This function had complications which made it hard to extend.
- It used to do two things: find the HEAD ref, and then find a
matching ref, optionally returning the former via assignment to a
passed-in pointer. Since finding HEAD is a one-liner, just have a
caller do it themselves and pass it as an argument.
- It used to manually search through the ref list for
refs/heads/master; this can be a one-line call to

The current code is very inconsistent about which signals
are caught for doing cleanup of temporary files and lock

checked a variety of death-dealing signals.
This patch factors out those signals to a single function,

If a piece of code wanted to do some cleanup before exiting
(e.g., cleaning up a lockfile or a tempfile), our usual
strategy was to install a signal handler that did something
like this:
do_cleanup(); /* actual work */
signal(signo, SIG_DFL); /* restore previous behavior */
raise(signo); /* deliver signal, killing ourselves */
For a single handler, this works fine. However, if we want
to clean up two _different_ things, we run into a problem.
The most recently installed handler will run, but when it
removes itself as a handler, it doesn't put back the first
handler.
This patch introduces sigchain, a tiny library for handling
a stack of signal handlers. You sigchain_push each handler,
and use sigchain_pop to restore whoever was before you in
the stack.

On a local clone, "git clone" would use the fully DWIMmed path as the origin
URL in the resulting repo. This was slightly inconsistent with the case of a
remote clone where the _given_ URL was used as the origin URL (because the
DWIMming was done remotely, and was therefore not available to "git clone").
This behaviour caused problems when cloning a local non-bare repo with
relative submodule URLs, because these submodule URLs would then be resolved
against the DWIMmed URL (e.g. "/repo/.git") instead of the given URL (e.g.
"/repo").
This patch teaches "git clone" to use the _given_ URL - instead of the
DWIMmed path - as the origin URL. This causes relative submodule URLs to be
resolved correctly, as long the _given_ URL indicates the correct directory
against which the submodule URLs should be resolved.
The patch also updates a testcase that contained the old-style origin URLs.
