Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy 9d2c97016f commit.h: delete 'util' field in struct commit
If you have come this far, you probably have seen that this 'util'
pointer is used for many different purposes. Some are not even
contained in a command code, but buried deep in common code with no
clue who will use it and how.

The move to using commit-slab gives us a much better picture of how
some piece of data is associated with a commit and what for. Since
nobody uses 'util' pointer anymore, we can retire so that nobody will
abuse it again. commit-slab will be the way forward for associating
data to a commit.

As a side benefit, this shrinks struct commit by 8 bytes (on 64-bit
architecture) which should help reduce memory usage for reachability
test a bit. This is also what commit-slab is invented for [1].

[1] 96c4f4a370 (commit: allow associating auxiliary info on-demand -
2013-04-09)

Git - fast, scalable, distributed revision control system

Git is a fast, scalable, distributed revision control system with an unusually rich command set that provides both high-level operations and full access to internals.

Git is an Open Source project covered by the GNU General Public License version 2 (some parts of it are under different licenses, compatible with the GPLv2). It was originally written by Linus Torvalds with help of a group of hackers around the net.

Please read the file INSTALL for installation instructions.

Many Git online resources are accessible from https://git-scm.com/ including full documentation and Git related tools.

See Documentation/gittutorial.txt to get started, then see Documentation/giteveryday.txt for a useful minimum set of commands, and Documentation/git-.txt for documentation of each command. If git has been correctly installed, then the tutorial can also be read with man gittutorial or git help tutorial, and the documentation of each command with man git-<commandname> or git help <commandname>.

CVS users may also want to read Documentation/gitcvs-migration.txt (man gitcvs-migration or git help cvs-migration if git is installed).

The user discussion and development of Git take place on the Git mailing list -- everyone is welcome to post bug reports, feature requests, comments and patches to git@vger.kernel.org (read Documentation/SubmittingPatches for instructions on patch submission). To subscribe to the list, send an email with just "subscribe git" in the body to majordomo@vger.kernel.org.
