When submitting a revised version of a patch series, it can be helpful
(to reviewers) to include a summary of changes since the previous
attempt in the form of an interdiff, however, doing so involves manually
copy/pasting the diff into the cover letter.
Add an --interdiff option to automate this process. The argument to
--interdiff specifies the tip of the previous attempt against which to
generate the interdiff. For example:
git format-patch --cover-letter --interdiff=v1 -3 v2
The previous attempt and the patch series being formatted must share a
common base.

make_cover_letter() returns early when it lacks sufficient state to emit
a diffstat, which makes it difficult to extend the function to reliably
emit additional generated content. Work around this shortcoming by
factoring diffstat-printing logic out to its own function and calling it
as needed without otherwise inhibiting normal control flow.

The in-core "commit" object had an all-purpose "void *util" field,
which was tricky to use especially in library-ish part of the
code. All of the existing uses of the field has been migrated to a
more dedicated "commit-slab" mechanism and the field is eliminated.
* nd/commit-util-to-slab:
commit.h: delete 'util' field in struct commit
merge: use commit-slab in merge remote desc instead of commit->util
log: use commit-slab in prepare_bases() instead of commit->util
show-branch: note about its object flags usage
show-branch: use commit-slab for commit-name instead of commit->util
name-rev: use commit-slab for rev-name instead of commit->util
bisect.c: use commit-slab for commit weight instead of commit->util
revision.c: use commit-slab for show_source
sequencer.c: use commit-slab to associate todo items to commits
sequencer.c: use commit-slab to mark seen commits

describe: use commit-slab for commit names instead of commit->util
blame: use commit-slab for blame suspects instead of commit->util
commit-slab: support shared commit-slab
commit-slab.h: code split
When users specify the commit range with 'Z..C' pattern for format-patch, all
the parents of Z (including Z) would be marked as UNINTERESTING which would
prevent revision walk in prepare_bases from getting the prerequisite commits,
thus `git format-patch --base <base_commit_sha> Z..C` won't be able to generate
the list of prerequisite patch ids. Clear UNINTERESTING flag with
clear_object_flags solves this issue.

This should make these functions easier to find and cache.h less
overwhelming to read.
In particular, this moves:
- read_object_file
- oid_object_info
- write_object_file
As a result, most of the codebase needs to #include object-store.h.
In this patch the #include is only added to files that would fail to
compile otherwise. It would be better to #include wherever
identifiers from the header are used. That can happen later
when we have better tooling for it.

When formatting a series of patches using --attach and --cover-letter,
the cover letter lacks the closing MIME boundary, violating RFC 2046.
Certain clients, such as Thunderbird, discard the message body in such a
case.
Since the cover letter is just one part and sending it as
multipart/mixed is not very useful, always emit it as text/plain,
avoiding the boundary problem altogether.

Using the commit-graph file to walk commit history removes the large
cost of parsing commits during the walk. This exposes a performance
issue: lookup_tree() takes a large portion of the computation time,
even when Git never uses those trees.
In anticipation of lazy-loading these trees, rename the 'tree' member
of struct commit to 'maybe_tree'. This serves two purposes: it hints
at the future role of possibly being NULL even if the commit has a
valid tree, and it allows for unambiguous transformation from simple
member access (i.e. commit->maybe_tree) to method access.

"diff" family of commands learned "--find-object=<object-id>" option
to limit the findings to changes that involve the named object.
* sb/diff-blobfind-pickaxe:
diff: use HAS_MULTI_BITS instead of counting bits manually
diff: properly error out when combining multiple pickaxe options
diffcore: add a pickaxe option to find a specific blob
diff: introduce DIFF_PICKAXE_KINDS_MASK
diff: migrate diff_flags.pickaxe_ignore_case to a pickaxe_opts bit
diff.h: make pickaxe_opts an unsigned bit field
Currently the check whether to perform pickaxing is done via checking
`diffopt->pickaxe`, which contains the command line argument that we
want to pickaxe for. Soon we'll introduce a new type of pickaxing, that
will not store anything in the `.pickaxe` field, so let's migrate the
check to be dependent on pickaxe_opts.
It is not enough to just replace the check for pickaxe by pickaxe_opts,
because flags might be set, but pickaxing was not requested ('-i').
To cope with that, introduce a mask to check only for the bits indicating
the modes of operation.

When `log --decorate` is used, git will decorate commits with all
available refs. While in most cases this may give the desired effect,
under some conditions it can lead to excessively verbose output.
Introduce two command line options, `--decorate-refs=<pattern>` and
`--decorate-refs-exclude=<pattern>` to allow the user to select which
refs are used in decoration.
When "--decorate-refs=<pattern>" is given, only the refs that match the
pattern are used in decoration. The refs that match the pattern when
"--decorate-refs-exclude=<pattern>" is given, are never used in
decoration.
These options follow the same convention for mixing negative and
positive patterns across the system, assuming that the inclusive default
is to match all refs available.
(1) if there is no positive pattern given, pretend as if an
inclusive default positive pattern was given;
(2) for each candidate, reject it if it matches no positive
pattern, or if it matches any one of the negative patterns.
The rules for what is considered a match are slightly different from the
rules used elsewhere.
Commands like `log --glob` assume a trailing '/*' when glob chars are
not present in the pattern. This makes it difficult to specify a single
ref. On the other hand, commands like `describe --match --all` allow
specifying exact refs, but do not have the convenience of allowing
"shorthand refs" like 'refs/heads' or 'heads' to refer to
'refs/heads/*'.
The commands introduced in this patch consider a match if:
(a) the pattern contains globs chars,
and regular pattern matching returns a match.
(b) the pattern does not contain glob chars,
and ref '<pattern>' exists, or if ref exists under '<pattern>/'
This allows both behaviours (allowing single refs and shorthand refs)
yet remaining compatible with existent commands.

git-show is unique in that it wants to use textconv by default except
for when it is showing blobs. When asked to show a blob, show doesn't
want to use textconv unless the user explicitly requested that it be
used by providing the command line flag '--textconv'.
Currently this is done by using a parallel set of 'touched' flags which
get set every time a particular flag is set or cleared. In a future
patch we want to eliminate this parallel set of flags so instead of
relying on if the textconv flag has been touched, add a new flag
'TEXTCONV_SET_VIA_CMDLINE' which is only set if textconv is set to true
via the command line.

"git rebase", especially when it is run by mistake and ends up

When generating patches for the rebase command, if the user does
not realize the branch they are rebasing onto is thousands of
commits different, there is no progress indication after initial
rewinding message.
The progress meter as presented in this patch assumes the thousands of
patches to have a fine granularity as well as assuming to require all
the same amount of work/time for each, such that a steady progress bar
is achieved.
We do not want to estimate the time for each patch based e.g.
on their size or number of touched files (or parents) as that is too
expensive for just a progress meter.
This patch allows a progress option to be passed to format-patch
so that the user can be informed the progress of generating the
patch. This option is then used by the rebase command when
calling format-patch.

For this reason, we hold on to the commit buffer for each

just a minor optimization. But once we refactor how reflog
