This patch adds a remote.*.mirror configuration option that,
when set, automatically puts git-push in --mirror mode for that
remote.
Furthermore, the option is set automatically by `git remote
add --mirror'.
The code in remote.c to parse remote.*.skipdefaultupdate
had a subtle problem: a comment in the code indicated that
special care was needed for boolean options, but this care was
not used in parsing the option. Since I was touching related
code, I did this fix too.
[jc: and I further fixed up the "ignore boolean" code.]

When pushing a refspec like "HEAD", we used to treat it as
"HEAD:HEAD", which didn't work without rewriting. Instead, we should
resolve the ref. If it's a symref, further require it to point to a
branch, to avoid doing anything especially unexpected. Also remove the
rewriting previously added in builtin-push.
Since the code for "HEAD" uses the regular refspec parsing, it
automatically handles "+HEAD" without anything special.
[jc: added a further test to make sure that "remote.*.push = HEAD" works]

The existing message indicates that an error occured during
push, but it is unclear whether _any_ refs were actually
pushed (even though the status table above shows which were
pushed successfully and which were not, the message "failed
to push" implies a total failure). By indicating that "some
refs" failed, we hopefully indicate to the user that the
table above contains the details.
We could also put in an explicit "see above for details"
message, but it seemed to clutter the output quite a bit
(both on a line of its own, or at the end of the error line,
which inevitably wraps).
This could also be made more fancy if the transport
mechanism passed back more details on how many refs
succeeded and failed:
error: failed to push %d out of %d refs to '%s'

This teaches "push <remote> HEAD" to resolve HEAD on the local
side to its real branch name, e.g. master, and then act as if
the real branch name was specified. So we have a shorthand for
pushing the current branch. Besides HEAD, no other symbolic ref
is resolved.
Thanks to Daniel Barkalow <barkalow@iabervon.org> for suggesting
this implementation, which is much simpler than the
implementation proposed before.

The default behaviour of git-push is potentially confusing
for new users, since it will push changes that are not on
the current branch. Publishing patches that were still
cooking on a development branch is hard to undo.
It would also be nice to be able to verify the expansion
of refspecs if you've edited them, so that you know
what branches matched on the server.
Adding a --dry-run flag allows the user to experiment
safely and learn how to use git-push properly. Originally
suggested by Steffen Prohaska.

1) pushes happen less often than fetches, so the bandwidth saving is
much less visible in that case overall.
2) thin packs have to be complemented with missing delta bases to be
valid, so many received thin packs will take more disk space.
3) the bother of repacking should be distributed amongst "clients"
i.e. fetchers and pushers as much as possible, and not the server
being fetched or pushed, to keep disk and CPU usage low on the
server.
This is why a fetch should get thin packs but a push should not.
Both Nico and I have been assuming that --no-thin was the default
behavior of git-push ever since Nico introduced --fix-thin into the
index-pack process, which allowed fetch and receive-pack to avoid
exploding packfiles received during transfer. This patch finally
makes it so.

so builtin-push.c doesn't have to expand them, and also git push can

This came up on #git when somebody was getting 'unable to create
./objects/tmp_oXXXX' but sweared he had write permission to that
directory. It turned out that the repository URL was changed
and he was accessing a repository he does not have a write
permission anymore.
I am not sure how much this would have helped somebody who
believed he was accessing location when the permission of that
location was changed while he was looking the other way, though.
But giving more information on the error path would be better,
and the next change would be helped with this as well.

Previous step converted use of strncmp() with literal string

This mechanically converts strncmp() to use prefixcmp(), but only when

idiotic conversions like

This allows you to set up mothership-satellite configuration
more symmetrically and naturally by allowing the globbing
wildcard refspec for git-push. On your satellite machine:
[remote "mothership"]
url = mothership:project.git
fetch = refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/mothership/*
push = refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/satellite/*
You would say "git fetch mothership" to update your tracking
branches under mothership/ to keep track of the progress on the
mothership side, and when you are done working on the satellite
machine, you would "git push mothership" to update their
tracking branches under satellite/. Corresponding configuration
on the mothership machine can be used to make "git fetch satellite"
update its tracking branch under satellite/. on the mothership.

The argc parameter is never used by the run_command_v family of

terminated so they can rely on the operating system's execvp
function to correctly pass the arguments to the new process.
Making the caller pass the argc is just confusing, as the caller
could be mislead into believing that the argc might take precendece
over the argv, or that the argv does not need to be NULL terminated.

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.

This adds a builtin "push" command, which is largely just a C'ification of
the "git-push.sh" script.
Now, the reason I did it as a built-in is partly because it's yet another
step on relying less on shell, but it's actually mostly because I've
wanted to be able to push to _multiple_ repositories, and the most obvious
and simplest interface for that would seem be to just have a "remotes"
file that has multiple URL entries.
(For "pull", having multiple entries should either just select the first
one, or you could fall back on the others on failure - your choice).
And quite frankly, it just became too damn messy to do that in shell.
Besides, we actually have a fair amount of infrastructure in C, so it just
wasn't that hard to do.
Of course, this is almost totally untested. It probably doesn't work for
anything but the one trial I threw at it. "Simple" doesn't necessarily
mean "obviously correct".
