Jeff King ea27a18ce2 spawn pager via run_command interface
This has two important effects:

 1. The pager is now the _child_ process, instead of the
    parent. This means that whatever spawned git (e.g., the
    shell) will see the exit code of the git process, and
    not the pager.

 2. The mingw and regular code are now unified, which makes
    the setup_pager function much simpler.

There are two caveats:

 1. We used to call execlp directly on the pager, followed
    by trying to exec it via the shall. We now just use the
    shell (which is what mingw has always done). This may
    have different results for pager names which contain
    shell metacharacters.

    It is also slightly less efficient because we
    unnecessarily run the shell; however, pager spawning is
    by definition an interactive task, so it shouldn't be
    a huge problem.

 2. The git process will remain in memory while the user
    looks through the pager. This is potentially wasteful.
    We could get around this by turning the parent into a
    meta-process which spawns _both_ git and the pager,
    collects the exit status from git, waits for both to
    end, and then exits with git's exit code.

Johannes Sixt bfdd9ffd2f Windows: Make the pager work.
Since we have neither fork() nor exec(), we have to spawn the pager and
feed it with the program's output.

Johannes Schindelin ef90d6d420 Provide git_config with a callback-data parameter
git_config() only had a function parameter, but no callback data
parameter.  This assumes that all callback functions only modify
global variables.

With this patch, every callback gets a void * parameter, and it is hoped
that this will help the libification effort.

Junio C Hamano 61b80509e3 sending errors to stdout under $PAGER
If you do this (and you are not an Emacs user who uses PAGER=cat
in your *shell* buffer):

        $ git init
        Initialized empty Git repository in .git/
        $ echo hello world >foo
        $ H=$(git hash-object -w foo)
        $ git tag -a foo-tag -m "Tags $H" $H
        $ echo $H
        3b18e512dba79e4c8300dd08aeb37f8e728b8dad
        $ rm -f .git/objects/3b/18e5*
        $ git show foo-tag
        tag foo-tag
        Tagger: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
        Date:   Sat Feb 16 10:43:23 2008 -0800

        Tags 3b18e512dba79e4c8300dd08aeb37f8e728b8dad

you do not get any indication of error.  If you are careful, you
would notice that no contents from the tagged object is
displayed, but that is about it.  If you run the "show" command
without pager, however, you will see the error:

        $ git --no-pager show foo-tag
        tag foo-tag
        Tagger: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
        Date:   Sat Feb 16 10:43:23 2008 -0800

        Tags 3b18e512dba79e4c8300dd08aeb37f8e728b8dad
        error: Could not read object 3b18e512dba79e4c8300dd08aeb37f8e728b8dad

Because we spawn the pager as the foreground process and feed
its input via pipe from the real command, we cannot affect the
exit status the shell sees from git command when the pager is in
use (I think there is not much gain we can have by working it
around, though).  But at least it may make sense to show the
error message to the user sitting in front of the pager.

[jc: Edgar Toernig suggested a much nicer implementation than
what I originally posted, which I took.]

Jeff King 6e9af863ee Support GIT_PAGER_IN_USE environment variable
When deciding whether or not to turn on automatic color
support, git_config_colorbool checks whether stdout is a
tty. However, because we run a pager, if stdout is not a
tty, we must check whether it is because we started the
pager. This used to be done by checking the pager_in_use
variable.

This variable was set only when the git program being run
started the pager; there was no way for an external program
running git indicate that it had already started a pager.
This patch allows a program to set GIT_PAGER_IN_USE to a
true value to indicate that even though stdout is not a tty,
it is because a pager is being used.

Junio C Hamano cad3a2056d pager: find out pager setting from configuration
It was very unfortunate that we added core.pager setting to the
configuration file; even when the underlying command does not care
if there is no git repository is involved (think "git diff --no-index"),
the user would now rightfully want the configuration setting to be
honored, which means we would need to read the configuration file before
we launch the pager.

This is a minimum change in the sense that it restores the old
behaviour of not even reading config in setup_git_directory(),
but have the core.pager honored when we know it matters.

Note that this does not cover "git -p --git-dir where command";
the -p option immediately trigger the pager settings before we
even see --git-dir to learn where the configuration file is, so
we will end up reading the configuration from the place where
we would _normally_ find the git repository.

Linus Torvalds 35ce862279 pager: Work around window resizing bug in 'less'
If you resize the terminal while less is waiting for input, less
will exit entirely without even showing the output. This is very
noticeable if you do something like "git diff" on a big and
cold-cache tree and git takes a few seconds to think, and then
you resize the window while it's preparing. Boom. No output AT
ALL.

The way to reproduce the problem is to do some pager operation
that takes a while in git, and resizing the window while git is
thinking about the output.  Try

	git diff --stat v2.6.12..

in the kernel tree to do something where it takes a while for git to start
outputting information.

Johannes Schindelin b75a82b754 Fix linking for not-so-clever linkers.
On one of my systems, the linker is not intelligent enough to link with
pager.o (in libgit.a) when only the variable pager_in_use is needed. The
consequence is that the linker complains about an undefined variable. So,
put the variable into environment.o, where it is linked always.

Linus Torvalds 34fd1c9ac5 git-log produces no output
When $PAGER is set to 'less -i', we used to fail because we
assumed the $PAGER is a command and simply exec'ed it.

Try exec first, and then run it through shell if it fails.  This
allows even funkier PAGERs like these ;-):

	PAGER='sed -e "s/^/`date`: /" | more'
	PAGER='contrib/colordiff.perl | less -RS'
