Keep Porcelainish from failing by broken ident after making changes.

"empty ident not allowed" error makes commit-tree fail, so we
are already safer in that we would not end up with commit
objects that have bogus names on the author or committer fields.
However, before commit-tree is called there are already changes
made to the index file and the working tree.  The operation can
be resumed after fixing the environment problem, but when this
triggers to a newcomer with unusable gecos, the first question
becomes "what did I lose and how would I recover".

This patch modifies some Porcelainish commands to verify
GIT_COMMITTER_IDENT as soon as we know we are going to make some
commits before doing much damage to prevent confusion.

Fix object re-hashing

The hashed object lookup had a subtle bug in re-hashing: it did

for (i = 0; i < count; i++)

.. rehash ..

where "count" was the old hash couny. Oon the face of it is obvious, since
it clearly re-hashes all the old objects.

However, it's wrong.

If the last old hash entry before re-hashing was in use (or became in use
by the re-hashing), then when re-hashing could have inserted an object
into the hash entries with idx >= count due to overflow. When we then
rehash the last old entry, that old entry might become empty, which means
that the overflow entries should be re-hashed again.

In other words, the loop has to be fixed to either traverse the whole
array, rather than just the old count.

(There's room for a slight optimization: instead of counting all the way
up, we can break when we see the first empty slot that is above the old
"count". At that point we know we don't have any collissions that we might

Instead, it at least prints out how much data it's gotten, and what the
packing speed is. Which makes the user realize that it's actually doing
something useful instead of sitting there silently (and if the recipient
knows how large the final result is, he can at least make a guess about
when it migt be done).

though my algorithm is a truly stupid one, and only really gives "speed in
the last half second or so").

Anyway, _something_ like this is definitely needed. It could certainly be
better (if it showed the same kind of thing that git-unpack-objects did,

proof so pack versions 2 and 3 are accepted.  Any pack version 2 are

NOTE! This makes "-c" be the default, which effectively means that merges
are never ignored any more, and "-m" is a no-op. So it changes semantics.

I would also like to make "--cc" the default if you do patches, but didn't
actually do that.

The raw output format is not wonderfully pretty, but it's distinguishable
from a "normal patch" in that a normal patch with just one parent has just
one colon at the beginning, while a multi-parent raw diff has <n> colons
for <n> parents.

So now, in the kernel, when you do

git-diff-tree cce0cac125623f9b68f25dd1350f6d616220a8dd

(to see the manual ARM merge that had a conflict in arch/arm/Kconfig), you
get

ie you see two colons (two parents), then three modes (parent modes
followed by result mode), then three sha1s (parent sha1s followed by
result sha1).

Which is pretty close to the normal raw diff output.

Cool/stupid exercise:

$ git-whatchanged | grep '^::' | cut -f2- | sort |
  uniq -c | sort -n | less -S

will show which files have needed the most file-level merge conflict
resolution. Useful? Probably not. But kind of interesting.

   behaviour.  It commits the current index.

   We commit the whole index even when this form is run from a
   subdirectory.

 - "git commit --include paths..." (or "git commit -i paths...")
   is equivalent to:

    git update-index --remove paths...
        git commit

   incompatible change that needs user training, which I am
   still a bit reluctant to swallow, but enough people seem to
   have complained that it is confusing to them.  It

   1. refuses to run if $GIT_DIR/MERGE_HEAD exists, and reminds
      trained git users that the traditional semantics now needs
      -i flag.

   2. refuses to run if named paths... are different in HEAD and
      the index (ditto about reminding).  Added paths are OK.

   3. reads HEAD commit into a temporary index file.

   4. updates named paths... from the working tree in this
      temporary index.

   5. does the same updates of the paths... from the working
      tree to the real index.

   6. makes a commit using the temporary index that has the
      current HEAD as the parent, and updates the HEAD with this
      new commit.

 - "git commit --all" can run from a subdirectory, but it updates
   the index with all the modified files and does a whole tree
   commit.

 - In all cases, when the command decides not to create a new
   commit, the index is left as it was before the command is
   run.  This means that the two "git diff" in the following
   sequence:

       $ git diff
       $ git commit -a
       $ git diff
