We make hardlinks from "git" to "git-<cmd>" built-ins and have been
careful to avoid cross-device links when linking "git-<cmd>" to
gitexecdir.
However, we were not prepared to deal with a build directory that is
incapable of making hard links within itself. This patch corrects it.
Instead of temporarily linking "git" to gitexecdir, directly link "git-
add", falling back to "cp". Try hardlinking that as "git-<cmd>", falling
back to symlinks or "cp" on error.
While at it, avoid 100+ error messages from hardlink failures when we are
going to fall back to symlinks or "cp" by redirecting the standard error
to /dev/null.

This adds a make target which can be used to try to execute certain shell
constructs which are required for compiling and running git.
This patch provides a test for the $() notation for command substition
which is used in the Makefile and extensively in the git scripts.
The make target is named in such a way as to be a hint to the user that
SHELL_PATH should be set to an appropriate shell. If the shell command
fails, the user should receive a message similar to the following:
make: *** [please_set_SHELL_PATH_to_a_more_modern_shell] Error 2

In an earlier commit c70a8d9 (Makefile: Do not install a copy of 'git' in
$(gitexecdir), 2008-07-21), we tried to avoid installing two git, one in
/usr/bin/git and the other in /usr/libexec/git-core/git. It mistakenly
removed the only copy of git when gitexecdir and bindir are set to the
same directory, i.e. the traditional layout.

If GIT_EXEC_PATH (the macro that is defined in the Makefile) is relative,
it is interpreted relative to the command's invocation path, which usually
is $(bindir).
The Makefile rules were written with the assumption that $(gitexecdir) is
an absolute path. We introduce a separate variable that names the
(absolute) installation directory.

$(gitexecdir) (as defined in the Makefile) has gained another path
component, but the relative paths in the MINGW section of the Makefile,
which are interpreted relative to it, do not account for it.
Instead of adding another ../ in front of the path, we change the code that
constructs the absolute paths to do it relative to the command's directory,
which is essentially $(bindir). We do it this way because we will also
allow a relative $(gitexecdir) later.

The install target needs to check whether the user has opted to make
$(gitexecdir) equal to $(bindir). It did so by a straight string
comparison. Since we are going to allow a relative $(gitexecdir), we have
to normalize paths before comparison, which we do with $(cd there && pwd).
The normalized paths are stored in shell variables. These we can now
reuse in the subsequent install statements, which conveniently shortens
the lines a bit.

There is already a copy in $(bindir). A subsequent patch will enable git
to derive the exec-path from its invocation path. If git is invoked
recursively, the first invocation puts the exec-path into PATH, so that
the recursive invocation would find the instance in the exec-path. This
second instance would again try to derive an exec-path from its invocation
path, but would base its result on the wrong "bindir".
We do install the copy of git first, but remove it later, so that we can
use it as the source of the hardlinks for the builtins.

Makefile records paths to a few programs in GIT-BUILD-OPTIONS file. These

So I was looking at the disgusting size of the git binary, and even with
the debugging removed, and using -Os instead of -O2, the size of the text
section was pretty high. In this day and age I guess almost a megabyte of
text isn't really all that surprising, but it still doesn't exactly make
me think "lean and mean".
With -Os, a surprising amount of text space is wasted on inline functions
that end up just being replicated multiple times, and where performance
really isn't a valid reason to inline them. In particular, the trivial
wrapper functions like "xmalloc()" are used _everywhere_, and making them
inline just duplicates the text (and the string we use to 'die()' on
failure) unnecessarily.
So this just moves them into a "wrapper.c" file, getting rid of a tiny bit
of unnecessary bloat. The following numbers are both with "CFLAGS=-Os":
Before:
[torvalds@woody git]$ size git
text data bss dec hex filename
700460 15160 292184 1007804 f60bc git
After:
[torvalds@woody git]$ size git
text data bss dec hex filename
670540 15160 292184 977884 eebdc git
so it saves almost 30k of text-space (it actually saves more than that
with the default -O2, but I don't think that's necessarily a very relevant
number from a "try to shrink git" standpoint).
It might conceivably have a performance impact, but none of this should be
_that_ performance critical. The real cost is not generally in the wrapper
anyway, but in the code it wraps (ie the cost of "xread()" is all in the
read itself, not in the trivial wrapping of it).

This patch adds support to compile and run git on 12 additional platforms.
The platforms are based on UNIX Systems Labs (USL)/Novell/SYS V code base.
The most common are Novell UnixWare 2.X.X, SCO UnixWare 7.X.X,
OpenServer 5.0.X, OpenServer 6.0.X, and SCO pre OSR 5 platforms.
Looking at the the various platform headers, I find:
#if defined(_KERNEL) || !defined(_POSIX_SOURCE) \
&& !defined(_POSIX_C_SOURCE) && !defined(_XOPEN_SOURCE)
which hides u_short and other typedefs that other header files on these
platforms depend on. WIth _XOPEN_SOURCE defined, sources that include
system header files that depend on the typedefs such as u_short cannot be
compiled on these platforms.
__USLC__ indicates UNIX System Labs Corperation (USLC), or a Novell-derived
compiler and/or some SysV based OS's.
__M_UNIX indicates XENIX/SCO UNIX/OpenServer 5.0.7 and prior releases
of the SCO OS's. It is used just like Apple and BSD, both of these
shouldn't have _XOPEN_SOURCE defined.
