The war on trailing whitespace
Moving a directory ending in a slash was not working as the

E.g. in the git repo,
git-mv t/ Documentation
gave the error
Error: destination 'Documentation' already exists
To get rid of this problem, strip trailing slashes from all arguments.
The comment in cg-mv made me curious about this issue; Pasky, thanks!
As result, the workaround in cg-mv is not needed any more.
Also, another bug was shown by cg-mv. When moving files outside of
a subdirectory, it typically calls git-mv with something like
git-mv Documentation/git.txt Documentation/../git-mv.txt
which triggers the following error from git-update-index:
Ignoring path Documentation/../git-mv.txt
The result is a moved file, removed from git revisioning, but not
added again. To fix this, the paths have to be normalized not have ".."
in the middle. This was already done in git-mv, but only for
a better visual appearance :(

* The output error message format is changed to say

it similar to typical compiler error message format, and
helps C-x ` (next-error) in Emacs compilation buffer.
* --whitespace=error and --whitespace=warn do not stop at the
first error. We might want to limit the output to say first
20 such lines to prevent cluttering, but on the other hand if
you are willing to hand-fix after inspecting them, getting
everything with a single run might be easier to work with.

This doesn't do the "strip-then-apply" thing, but it allows you to make
git-apply generate a warning or error on extraneous whitespace.
Use --whitespace=warn to warn, and (surprise, surprise) --whitespace=error
to make it a fatal error to have whitespace at the end.
Totally untested, of course. But it compiles, so it must be fine.
HOWEVER! Note that this literally will check every single patch-line with
"+" at the beginning. Which means that if you fix a simple typo, and the
line had a space at the end before, and you didn't remove it, that's still
considered a "new line with whitespace at the end", even though obviously
the line wasn't really new.
I assume this is what you wanted, and there isn't really any sane
alternatives (you could make the warning activate only for _pure_
additions with no deletions at all in that hunk, but that sounds a bit
insane).

Unless --no-tags flag was given, git-fetch tried to always

It is not very useful to pick up tags from remote unless storing

into our current branch as one-shot basis (i.e. "please pull"),
and is even harmful if the remote repository has many irrelevant

"empty ident not allowed" error makes commit-tree fail, so we

However, before commit-tree is called there are already changes

be resumed after fixing the environment problem, but when this
triggers to a newcomer with unusable gecos, the first question

This tries to rework the solution for the excess delta chain
problem. An earlier commit worked it around ``cheaply'', but
repeated repacking risks unbound growth of delta chains.
This version counts the length of delta chain we are reusing
from the existing pack, and makes sure a base object that has
sufficiently long delta chain does not get deltified.

This introduces --no-reuse-delta option to disable reusing of
existing delta, which is a large part of the optimization
introduced by this series. This may become necessary if
repeated repacking makes delta chain too long. With this, the
output of the command becomes identical to that of the older
implementation. But the performance suffers greatly.
It still allows reusing non-deltified representations; there is
no point uncompressing and recompressing the whole text.
It also adds a couple more statistics output, while squelching
it under -q flag, which the last round forgot to do.

There is one remaining issue when --no-reuse-delta option is not
used. It can create delta chains that are deeper than specified.
A<--B<--C<--D E F G
Suppose we have a delta chain A to D (A is stored in full either
in a pack or as a loose object. B is depth1 delta relative to A,
C is depth2 delta relative to B...) with loose objects E, F, G.
And we are going to pack all of them.
B, C and D are left as delta against A, B and C respectively.
So A, E, F, and G are examined for deltification, and let's say
we decided to keep E expanded, and store the rest as deltas like
this:
E<--F<--G<--A
Oops. We ended up making D a bit too deep, didn't we? B, C and
D form a chain on top of A!
This is because we did not know what the final depth of A would
be, when we checked objects and decided to keep the existing
delta. Unfortunately, deferring the decision until just before
the deltification is not an option. To be able to make B, C,
and D candidates for deltification with the rest, we need to
know the type and final unexpanded size of them, but the major
part of the optimization comes from the fact that we do not read
the delta data to do so -- getting the final size is quite an
expensive operation.
To prevent this from happening, we should keep A from being
deltified. But how would we tell that, cheaply?
To do this most precisely, after check_object() runs, each
object that is used as the base object of some existing delta
needs to be marked with the maximum depth of the objects we
decided to keep deltified (in this case, D is depth 3 relative
to A, so if no other delta chain that is longer than 3 based on
A exists, mark A with 3). Then when attempting to deltify A, we
would take that number into account to see if the final delta
chain that leads to D becomes too deep.
However, this is a bit cumbersome to compute, so we would cheat
and reduce the maximum depth for A arbitrarily to depth/4 in
this implementation.

When generating a new pack, notice if we have already needed
objects in existing packs. If an object is stored deltified,
and its base object is also what we are going to pack, then
reuse the existing deltified representation unconditionally,
bypassing all the expensive find_deltas() and try_deltas()
calls.
Also, notice if what we are going to write out exactly match
what is already in an existing pack (either deltified or just
compressed). In such a case, we can just copy it instead of
going through the usual uncompressing & recompressing cycle.

the empty subdirectory should be removed. This matches
the behavior of git-checkout-index and git-read-tree -m

have deleted it when updating the working directory.
Subdirectories which are not empty will be left behind.
This may happen if the subdirectory still contains object
