README suggested to look at "Documentation/gittutorial.txt" for the
tutorial and to use "man git-commandname" for documentation of each
command.
This was not consistent because the tutorial can also be available with
"man gittutorial" once git is installed, and the documentation for each
command can be available at "Documentation/git-commandname.txt" before
installing git.
This patch tries to make the description more consistent. It also fixes
the path to the cvs-migration documentation that changed from
"Documentation/cvs-migration.txt" to "Documentation/gitcvs-migration.txt".

Previously, for dates older than 12 months we fell back to just giving the
absolute time. This can be a bit jarring when reading a list of times.
Instead, let's switch to "Y years, M months" for five years, and then just
"Y years" after that.
No particular reason on the 5 year cutoff except that it seemed reasonable
to me.

Commit eed6ca7 caused a minor regression when it switched to using
tempfile() to generate the temporary compose file. Since tempfile()
creates the file at the time it generates the filename, zero-length
temporary files are being left behind unless --compose is used (in which
case the file is cleaned up).
This patch fixes the regression by not calling tempfile() to generate
the compose filename unless --compose is in use.

For deep threading mode, i.e., the mode that gives a thread structured
like
+ [PATCH 0/n] Cover letter
`-+ [PATCH 1/n] First patch
`-+ [PATCH 2/n] Second patch
`-+ ...
we currently have to use 'git send-email --thread' (the default). On
the other hand, format-patch also has a --thread option which gives
shallow mode, i.e.,
+ [PATCH 0/n] Cover letter
|-+ [PATCH 1/n] First patch
|-+ [PATCH 2/n] Second patch
...
To reduce the confusion resulting from having two indentically named
features in different tools giving different results, let format-patch
take an optional argument '--thread=deep' that gives the same output
as 'send-mail --thread'. With no argument, or 'shallow', behave as
before. Also add a configuration variable format.thread with the same
semantics.

Currently, format-patch --thread --cover-letter --in-reply-to $parent
makes all mails, including the cover letter, a reply to $parent.
However, we would want the reader to consider the cover letter above
all the patches.
This changes the semantics so that only the cover letter is a reply to
$parent, while all the patches are formatted as replies to the cover
letter.

Currently, format-patch can only track a single reference (the
In-Reply-To:) for each mail. To ensure proper threading, we should
list all known references for every mail.
Change the rev_info.ref_message_id field to a string_list, so that we
can append references at will, and change the output formatting
routines to print all of them in the References: header. The last
entry in the list is implicitly assumed to be the In-Reply-To:, which
gives output consistent with RFC 2822:
The "References:" field will contain the contents of the parent's
"References:" field (if any) followed by the contents of the
parent's "Message-ID:" field (if any).
Note that this is just preparatory work; nothing uses it yet, so all
"References:" fields in the output are still only one deep.

Talking about --date, one thing I wanted for the 1234567890 date was to
get things in the raw format. Sure, you get them with --pretty=raw, but it
felt a bit sad that you couldn't just ask for the date in raw format.
So here's a throw-away patch (meaning: I won't be re-sending it, because I
really don't think it's a big deal) to add "--date=raw". It just prints
out the internal raw git format - seconds since epoch plus timezone (put
another way: 'date +"%s %z"' format)

* a branch pointing to a non-commit;

itself claims.

With gcc's --coverage option, we can perform automatic coverage data
collection for the test suite.
Add a new Makefile target 'coverage' that scraps all previous coverage
results, recompiles git with the required compiler/linker flags (in
addition to any flags you specify manually), then runs the test suite
and compiles a report.
The compilation must be done with all optimizations disabled, since
inlined functions (and for line-by-line coverage, also optimized
branches/loops) break coverage tracking.
The tests are run serially (with -j1). The coverage code should
theoretically allow concurrent access to its data files, but the
author saw random test failures. Obviously this could be improved.
The report currently consists of a list of functions that were never
executed during the tests, which is written to
'coverage-untested-functions'. Once this list becomes reasonably
short, we would also want to look at branches that were never taken.
Currently only toplevel *.c files are considered. It would be nice to
at least include xdiff, but --coverage did not save data to
subdirectories on the system used to write this (gcc 4.3.2).

The current implementation only hyperlinks the first hash on
a given line of the commit message. It seems sensible to
highlight all of them if there are multiple, and it seems
plausible that there would be multiple even with a tidy line
length limit, because they can be abbreviated as short as 8
characters.
Benchmark:
I wanted to make sure that using the 'e' switch to the Perl regex
wasn't going to kill performance, since this is called once per commit
message line displayed.
In all three A/B scenarios I tried, the A and B yielded the same
results within 2%, where A is the version of code before this patch
and B is the version after.
1: View a commit message containing the last 1000 commit hashes
2: View a commit message containing 1000 lines of 40 dots to avoid
hyperlinking at the same message length
3: View a short merge commit message with a few lines of text and
no hashes
All were run in CGI mode on my sub-production hardware on a recent
clone of git.git. Numbers are the average of 10 reqests per second
with the first request discarded, since I expect this change to affect
primarily CPU usage. Measured with ApacheBench.
Note that the web page rendered was the same; while the new code
supports multiple hashes per line, there was at most one per line.
The primary purpose of scenarios 2 and 3 were to verify that the
addition of 1000 commit messages had an impact on how much of the time
was spent rendering commit messages. They were all within 2% of 0.80
requests per second (much faster).
So I think the patch has no noticeable effect on performance.

At least for the author of this patch, the logic in system_path() was
too hard to understand. Using the function strip_path_suffix() documents
the idea of the code better.
The real change is to add the suffix "git", so that a runtime prefix will
be computed correctly even when the executable was called in /git/ as is
the case in msysGit (Windows insists to search the current directory
before the PATH when looking for an executable).

The function strip_path_suffix() will try to strip a given suffix from
a given path. The suffix must start at a directory boundary (i.e. "core"
is not a path suffix of "libexec/git-core", but "git-core" is).
Arbitrary runs of directory separators ("slashes") are assumed identical.
Example:
strip_path_suffix("C:\\msysgit/\\libexec\\git-core",
"libexec///git-core", &prefix)
will set prefix to "C:\\msysgit" and return 0.

t4014 tests format-patch --thread since 7d812145, but the tests were
ineffective right from the start at least for bash and dash. The
loops of the form
for ...; do something || break; done
introduced by 7d812145 and 5d02294 always exit with status 0, even if
'something' failed, because 'break' returns 0 unless there was no loop
to break.
We take a rather different approach that uses an admittedly heinous
inline Perl script to mangle all interesting information into a format
that is invariant between runs. We can then test the full patch
sequence in one go (with --stdout), doing away with the loop problem.
