There are times when gitk needs to know that the commits it has sent
to git-diff-tree --stdin did not match, and it needs to know in a
timely fashion even if none of them match. At the moment,
git-diff-tree outputs nothing for non-matching commits, so it is
impossible for gitk to distinguish between git-diff-tree being slow
and git-diff-tree saying no.
This makes git-diff-tree flush its output and echo back the
input line when it is not a valid-looking object name. Gitk, or
other users of git-diff-tree --stdin, can use a blank line or
any other "marker line" to indicate that git-diff-tree has
processed all the commits on its input up to the echoed back
marker line, and any commits that have not been output do not
match.

Doing an oprofile run on the result of my git rev-list memory leak fixes
and tree parsing cleanups, I was surprised by the third-highest entry
being
samples % image name app name symbol name
179751 2.7163 libc-2.4.so libc-2.4.so _IO_vfscanf@@GLIBC_2.4
where that 2.7% is actually more than 5% of one CPU, because this was run
on a dual CPU setup with the other CPU just being idle.
That seems to all be from the use of 'sscanf(tree, "%o", &mode)' for the
tree buffer parsing.
So do the trivial octal parsing by hand, which also gives us where the
first space in the string is (and thus where the pathname starts) so we
can get rid of the "strchr(tree, ' ')" call too.
This brings the "git rev-list --all --objects" time down from 63 seconds
to 55 seconds on the historical kernel archive for me, so it's quite
noticeable - tree parsing is a lot of what we end up doing when following
all the objects.
[ I also see a 5% speedup on a full "git fsck-objects" on the current
kernel archive, so that sscanf() really does seem to have hurt our
performance by a surprising amount ]

Martin Langhoff points out that "git repack -a" ends up using up a lot of
memory for big archives, and that git cvsimport probably should do only
incremental repacks in order to avoid having repacking flush all the
caches.
The big majority of the memory usage of repacking is from git rev-list
tracking all objects, and this patch should go a long way in avoiding the
excessive memory usage: the bulk of it was due to the object names being
leaked from the tree parser.
For the historic Linux kernel archive, this simple patch does:
Before:
/usr/bin/time git-rev-list --all --objects > /dev/null
72.45user 0.82system 1:13.55elapsed 99%CPU (0avgtext+0avgdata 0maxresident)k
0inputs+0outputs (0major+125376minor)pagefaults 0swaps
After:
/usr/bin/time git-rev-list --all --objects > /dev/null
75.22user 0.48system 1:16.34elapsed 99%CPU (0avgtext+0avgdata 0maxresident)k
0inputs+0outputs (0major+43921minor)pagefaults 0swaps
where we do end up wasting a bit of time on some extra strdup()s (which
could be avoided, but that would require tracking where the pathnames came
from), but we avoid a lot of memory usage.
Minor page faults track maximum RSS very closely (each page fault maps in
one page into memory), so the reduction from 125376 page faults to 43921
means a rough reduction of VM footprint from almost half a gigabyte to
about a third of that. Those numbers were also double-checked by looking
at "top" while the process was running.
(Side note: at least part of the remaining VM footprint is the mapping of
the 177MB pack-file, so the remaining memory use is at least partly "well
behaved" from a project caching perspective).
For the current git archive itself, the memory usage for a "--all
--objects" rev-list invocation dropped from 7128 pages to 2318 (27MB to
9MB), so the reduction seems to hold for much smaller projects too.
For regular "git-rev-list" usage (ie without the "--objects" flag) this
patch has no impact.

The revision argument parsing was happily parsing "--abbrev", but it
didn't parse "--abbrev=<n>".
Which was hidden by the fact that the diff options _would_ parse
--abbrev=<n>, so it would actually silently parse it, it just
wouldn't use it for the same things that a plain "--abbrev" was
used for.
Which seems a bit insane.
With this patch, if you do "git log --abbrev=10" it will abbreviate the
merge parent commit ID's to ten hex characters, which was probably what
you expected.

We exited prematurely from header parsing loop when the header
field did not have a space after the colon but we insisted on
it, and we got the check wrong because we forgot that we strip
the trailing whitespace before we do the check.
The space after the colon is not even required by RFC2822, so
stop requiring it. While we are at it, the header line is
specified to be more strict than "anything with a colon in it"
(there must be one or more characters before the colon, and they
must not be controls, SP or non US-ASCII), so implement that
check as well, lest we mistakenly think something like:
Bogus not a header line: this is not.
as a header line.

Otherwise, if make is suspended, or killed with prejudice, or if the

generated file.
I left off the `clean' addition, because I believe "make clean" should
not remove wildcard patterns like "*+", on the off-chance that someone
uses names like that for files they care about. Besides, in practice,
those temporary files are left behind so rarely that they're not a bother,
and they're removed again as part of the next build.

I was just testing that "git ls-remote" change by Junio, and when you're
not in a git repository, it gives this totally bogus warning. The _target_
obviously has to be a git repository, but there's no reason why you'd have
to be in a local git repo when doing an ls-remote.
The reason is commit 73136b2e8a by Dscho: it
adds calls to git-repo-config in git-parse-remote.sh to get the remote
shorthands etc.
Now, either we should just hide and ignore the error from git-repo-config
(probably bad, because some errors _are_ valid - like git-repo-config
failing due to bad syntax in the config file), or we should just make
git-repo-config quietly handle the case of not being in a git repository.
This does the latter: just quietly accepting (and doing nothing - trying
to set a value will result in the lock-file failing) our lot in life
sounds better than dying with a bogus error message.
