"merge" utility is missing.  I don't think tests should be silent in
case of failure.

It turned out that the particular test was using "exit" to interrupt the

No further tests would be run even if "--immediate" wasn't specified.

All instances of "exit", "exit 1" and "(exit 1)" in tests have been
replaced with "return 1".  In fact, "(exit 1)" had no effect.

File descriptor 5 is duplicated from file descriptor 1.  This is needed
to print important error messages from tests.

New function test_run_() has been introduced.  Any "return" in the test
would merely cause that function to return without skipping calls to
test_failure_() and test_ok_().  The new function also traps "exit" and
treats it like a fatal error (in case somebody reintroduces "exit" in
the tests).

test_expect_failure() and test_expect_success() check both the result of
eval and the return value of test_run_().  If the later is not 0, it's
always a failure because it indicates the the test didn't complete.

In commit 4f7eb2e5a351e0d1f19fd4eab7e92834cc4528c2 I fixed git-merge-base
getting confused by datestamps that caused it to traverse things in a
non-obvious order.

However, my fix was a very brute-force one, and it had some really
horrible implications for more complex trees with lots of parallell
development. It might end up traversing all the way to the root commit.

Now, normally that isn't that horrible: it's used mainly for merging, and
the bad cases really tend to happen fairly rarely, so if it takes a few
seconds, we're not in too bad shape.

However, gitk will also do the git-merge-base for every merge it shows,
because it basically re-does the trivial merge in order to show the
"interesting" parts. And there we'd really like the result to be
instantaneous.

This patch does that by walking the tree more completely, and using the
same heuristic as git-rev-list to decide "ok, the rest is uninteresting".

In one - hopefully fairly extreme - case, it made a git-merge-base go from
just under five seconds(!) to a tenth of a second on my machine.

Refine the update heuristic to improve responsiveness a bit.

The previous commit improved performance a lot but also meant that
we waited longer to see something drawn.  This refines the heuristics
for when to call update so that (1) when we have finished processing
a bufferfull of information from git-rev-list, we call update if
enough time has elapsed, regardless of how many commits we've drawn,
and (2) the number of commits drawn between updates scales with the
total number of commits drawn: 1 for 1-99 commits, 10 for 100-9999
commits, or 100 for >= 10000 commits.

git-rev-parse HEAD^1 would fail, because of an off-by-one bug (but HEAD^

Only do an update every 100 commits when drawing the graph.

On a large repository with > 60,000 commits, each call to the Tk
update primitive (which gives Tk a chance to respond to events and
redraw the screen) was taking up to 0.2 seconds.  Because the logic
was to call update after drawing a commit if 0.1 seconds had passed
since the last update call, we were calling it for every commit,
which was slowing us down enormously.  Now we also require that we
have drawn 100 commits since the last update (as well as it being
at least 0.1 seconds since the last update).  Drawing 100 commits
takes around 0.1 - 0.2 seconds (even in this large repo) on my G5.
