It's really not very easy to visualize the commit walker, because - on
purpose - it obvously doesn't show the uninteresting commits!
This adds a "--show-all" flag to the revision walker, which will make
it show uninteresting commits too, and they'll have a '^' in front of
them (it also fixes a logic error for !verbose_header for boundary
commits - we should show the '-' even if left_right isn't shown).
A separate patch to gitk to teach it the new '^' was sent
to paulus. With the change in place, it actually is interesting
even for the cases that git doesn't have any problems with, ie
for the kernel you can do:
gitk -d --show-all v2.6.24..
and you see just how far down it has to parse things to see it all. The
use of "-d" is a good idea, since the date-ordered toposort is much better
at showing why it goes deep down (ie the date of some of those commits
after 2.6.24 is much older, because they were merged from trees that
weren't rebased).
So I think this is a useful feature even for non-debugging - just to
visualize what git does internally more.
When it actually breaks out due to the "everybody_uninteresting()"
case, it adds the uninteresting commits (both the one it's looking at
now, and the list of pending ones) to the list
This way, we really list *all* the commits we've looked at.
Because we now end up listing commits we may not even have been parsed
at all "show_log" and "show_commit" need to protect against commits
that don't have a commit buffer entry.
That second part is debatable just how it should work. Maybe we shouldn't
show such entries at all (with this patch those entries do get shown, they
just don't get any message shown with them). But I think this is a useful
case.

The default value of @mergerx uses \W, which matches a non-word

wt_status_print_cached_header was updated to take the whole

We used to use "cat-file commit $commit" to extract the original
author information from existing commit, but an earlier commit
5ac2715 (Consistent message encoding while reusing log from an
existing commit) changed it to use "git show -s $commit". If
you have a file in your work tree that can be interpreted as a
valid object name (e.g. "HEAD"), this conversion will not work.
Disambiguate by marking the end of revision parameter on the
comand line with an explicit "--" to fix this.
This breakage is most visible with rebase when a file called
"HEAD" exists in the worktree.

This reverts commit 9c2174350c.
Nico analyzed and found out that this does not really help, and
I agree with it.
By the time this gets into action and data is actively thrown
away, performance simply goes down the drain due to the data
constantly being reloaded over and over and over and over and
over and over again, to the point of virtually making no
relative progress at all. The previous behavior of enforcing
the memory limit by dynamically shrinking the window size at
least had the effect of allowing some kind of progress, even if
the end result wouldn't be optimal.
And that's the whole point behind this memory limiting feature:
allowing some progress to be made when resources are too limited
to let the repack go unbounded.
When using the '-w $cvsdir' option to cvsexportcommit, it will chdir into
$cvsdir before executing several other git commands. If $GIT_DIR is set to
a relative path (e.g. '.'), the git commands executed by cvsexportcommit
will naturally fail.
Therefore, ensure that $GIT_DIR is absolute before the chdir to $cvsdir.

Many user friendly tools like word processors, email editors and web
browsers allow users to spell check the message they are writing
as they type it, making it easy to identify a common misspelling
of a word and correct it on the fly.
We now open a bi-directional pipe to Aspell and feed the message
text the user is editing off to the program about once every 300
milliseconds. This is frequent enough that the user sees the results
almost immediately, but is not so frequent as to cause significant
additional load on the system. If the user has modified the message
text during the last 300 milliseconds we delay until the next period,
ensuring that we avoid flooding the Aspell process with a lot of
text while the user is actively typing their message.
We wait to send the current message buffer to Aspell until the user
is at a word boundary, thus ensuring that we are not likely to ask
for misspelled word detection on a word that the user is actively
typing, as most words are misspelled when only partially typed,
even if the user has thus far typed it correctly.
Misspelled words are highlighted in red and are given an underline,
causing the word to stand out from the others in the buffer. This is
a very common user interface idiom for displaying misspelled words,
but differs from one platform to the next in slight variations.
For example the Mac OS X system prefers using a dashed red underline,
leaving the word in the original text color. Unfortunately the
control that Tk gives us over text display is not powerful enough
to handle such formatting so we have to work with the least common
denominator.
The top suggestions for a misspelling are saved in an array and
offered to the user when they right-click (or on the Mac ctrl-click)
a misspelled word. Selecting an entry from this menu will replace
the misspelling with the correction shown. Replacement is integrated
with the undo/redo stack so undoing a replacement will restore the
misspelled original text.
If Aspell could not be started during git-gui launch we silently eat
the error and run without spell checking support. This way users
who do not have Aspell in their $PATH can continue to use git-gui,
although they will not get the advanced spelling functionality.
If Aspell started successfully the version line and language are
shown in git-gui's about box, below the Tcl/Tk versions. This way
the user can verify the Aspell function has been activated.
If Aspell crashes while we are running we inform the user with an
error dialog and then disable Aspell entirely for the rest of this
git-gui session. This prevents us from fork-bombing the system
with Aspell instances that always crash when presented with the
current message text, should there be a bug in either Aspell or in
git-gui's output to it.
We escape all input lines with ^, as recommended by the Aspell manual
page, as this allows Aspell to properly ignore any input line that is
otherwise looking like a command (e.g. ! to enable terse output). By
using this escape however we need to correct all word offsets by -1 as
Aspell is apparently considering the ^ escape to be part of the line's
character count, but our Tk text widget obviously does not.
Available dictionaries are offered in the Options dialog, allowing
the user to select the language they want to spellcheck commit
messages with for the current repository, as well as the global
user setting that all repositories inherit.
Special thanks to Adam Flott for suggesting connecting git-gui
to Aspell for the purpose of spell checking the commit message,
and to Wincent Colaiuta for the idea to wait for a word boundary
before passing the message over for checking.

Ignoring space changes can be helpful. For example, a commit
claims to only reformat source code and you quickly want to
verify if this claim is true. Or a commit accidentally changes
code formatting and you want to focus on the real changes.
In such cases a button to toggle of whitespace changes would be
quite handy. You could quickly toggle between seeing and
ignoring whitespace changes.
This commit adds such a checkbutton right above the diff view.
However, in general it is a good thing to see whitespace changes
and therefore the state of the checkbutton is not saved. For
example, space changes might happen unintentionally. But they are
real changes yielding different sha1s for the blobs involved.

This establishes what the "bad" whitespaces are for this
project.
The rules are:
- Unless otherwise specified, indent with SP that could be
replaced with HT are not "bad". But SP before HT in the
indent is "bad", and trailing whitespaces are "bad".
- For C source files, initial indent by SP that can be replaced
with HT is also "bad".
- Test scripts in t/ and test vectors in its subdirectories can
contain anything, so we make it unrestricted for now.
Anything "bad" will be shown in WHITESPACE error indicator in
diff output, and "apply --whitespace=warn" will warn about it.
