git-shortlog, like git-log, supports options to filter what commits are
used to generate the log. These options come from git-rev-list, and are
documented in Documentation/rev-list-options.txt. Include those options
in shortlog's documentation.
But since rev-list-options.txt contains some other options that don't
really apply in the context of shortlog (like diff formatting, commit
ordering, etc), add a switch in rev-list-options.txt that excludes those
sections from the shortlog documentation. To be more specific, include
only the "Commit Limiting" and "History Simplification" sections.

object-store.h: move for_each_alternate_ref() from transport.h

When we receive a remote ref update to sha1 "X", we want to check that
we have all of the objects needed by "X". We can assume that our
repository is not currently corrupted, and therefore if we have a ref
pointing at "Y", we have all of its objects. So we can stop our
traversal from "X" as soon as we hit "Y".
If we make the same non-corruption assumption about any repositories we
use to store alternates, then we can also use their ref tips to shorten
the traversal.
This is especially useful when cloning with "--reference", as we
otherwise do not have any local refs to check against, and have to
traverse the whole history, even though the other side may have sent us
few or no objects. Here are results for the included perf test (which
shows off more or less the maximal savings, getting one new commit and
sharing the whole history):

Allow combining of multiple filters by simply repeating the --filter
flag. Before this patch, the user had to combine them in a single flag
somewhat awkwardly (e.g. --filter=combine:FOO+BAR), including
URL-encoding the individual filters.
To make this work, in the --filter flag parsing callback, rather than
error out when we detect that the filter_options struct is already
populated, we modify it in-place to contain the added sub-filter. The
existing sub-filter becomes the lhs of the combined filter, and the
next sub-filter becomes the rhs. We also have to URL-encode the LHS and
RHS sub-filters.
We can simplify the operation if the LHS is already a combine: filter.
In that case, we just append the URL-encoded RHS sub-filter to the LHS
spec to get the new spec.

Allow easier parsing by cat-file by giving rev-list an option to print
only the OID of a non-commit object without any additional information.
This is a short-term shim; later on, rev-list should be taught how to
print the types of objects it finds in a format similar to cat-file's.
Before this commit, the output from rev-list needed to be massaged
before being piped to cat-file, like so:
git rev-list --objects HEAD | cut -f 1 -d ' ' |
git cat-file --batch-check
This was especially unexpected when dealing with root trees, as an
invisible whitespace exists at the end of the OID:
git rev-list --objects --filter=tree:1 --max-count=1 HEAD |
xargs -I% echo "AA%AA"
Now, it can be piped directly, as in the added test case:
git rev-list --objects --no-object-names HEAD | git cat-file --batch-check

If someone wants to use as a filter a sparse file that is in the
repository, something like "--filter=sparse:oid=<ref>:<path>"
already works.
So 'sparse:path' is only interesting if the sparse file is not in
the repository. In this case though the current implementation has
a big security issue, as it makes it possible to ask the server to
read any file, like for example /etc/password, and to explore the
filesystem, as well as individual lines of files.
If someone is interested in using a sparse file that is not in the
repository as a filter, then at the minimum a config option, such
as "uploadpack.sparsePathFilter", should be implemented first to
restrict the directory from which the files specified by
'sparse:path' can be read.
For now though, let's just disable 'sparse:path' filters.

The combined diff format for merges will only list one filename, even if
rename or copy detection is active. For example, with raw format one
might see:
::100644 100644 100644 fabadb8 cc95eb0 4866510 MM describe.c
::100755 100755 100755 52b7a2d 6d1ac04 d2ac7d7 RM bar.sh
::100644 100644 100644 e07d6c5 9042e82 ee91881 RR phooey.c
This doesn't let us know what the original name of bar.sh was in the
first parent, and doesn't let us know what either of the original names
of phooey.c were in either of the parents. In contrast, for non-merge
commits, raw format does provide original filenames (and a rename score
to boot). In order to also provide original filenames for merge
commits, add a --combined-all-paths option (which must be used with
either -c or --cc, and is likely only useful with rename or copy
detection active) so that we can print tab-separated filenames when
renames are involved. This transforms the above output to:
::100644 100644 100644 fabadb8 cc95eb0 4866510 MM desc.c desc.c desc.c
::100755 100755 100755 52b7a2d 6d1ac04 d2ac7d7 RM foo.sh bar.sh bar.sh
::100644 100644 100644 e07d6c5 9042e82 ee91881 RR fooey.c fuey.c phooey.c
Further, in patch format, this changes the from/to headers so that
instead of just having one "from" header, we get one for each parent.
For example, instead of having
--- a/phooey.c
+++ b/phooey.c
we would see
--- a/fooey.c
--- a/fuey.c
+++ b/phooey.c

Display date and time information in a format similar to how people
write dates in other contexts. If the year isn't specified then, the
reader infers the date is given is in the current year.
By not displaying the redundant information, the reader concentrates
on the information that is different. The patch reports relative dates
based on information inferred from the date on the machine running the
git command at the time the command is executed.
While the format is more useful to humans by dropping inferred
information, there is nothing that makes it actually human. If the
'relative' date format wasn't already implemented then using
'relative' would have been appropriate.

Implement positive values for <depth> in the tree:<depth> filter. The
exact semantics are described in Documentation/rev-list-options.txt.
The long-term goal at the end of this is to allow a partial clone to
eagerly fetch an entire directory of files by fetching a tree and
specifying <depth>=1. This, for instance, would make a build operation
fast and convenient. It is fast because the partial clone does not need
to fetch each file individually, and convenient because the user does
not need to supply a sparse-checkout specification.
Another way of considering this feature is as a way to reduce
round-trips, since the client can get any number of levels of
directories in a single request, rather than wait for each level of tree
objects to come back, whose entries are used to construct a new request.

Teach list-objects the "tree:0" filter which allows for filtering
out all tree and blob objects (unless other objects are explicitly
specified by the user). The purpose of this patch is to allow smaller
partial clones.
The name of this filter - tree:0 - does not explicitly specify that
it also filters out all blobs, but this should not cause much confusion
because blobs are not at all useful without the trees that refer to
them.
I also considered only:commits as a name, but this is inaccurate because
it suggests that annotated tags are omitted, but actually they are
included.
The name "tree:0" allows later filtering based on depth, i.e. "tree:1"
would filter out all but the root tree and blobs. In order to avoid
confusion between 0 and capital O, the documentation was worded in a
somewhat round-about way that also hints at this future improvement to
the feature.

Teach rev-list to support termination of an object traversal at any
object from a promisor remote (whether one that the local repo also has,
or one that the local repo knows about because it has another promisor
object that references it).
This will be used subsequently in gc and in the connectivity check used
by fetch.
For efficiency, if an object is referenced by a promisor object, and is
in the local repo only as a non-promisor object, object traversal will
not stop there. This is to avoid building the list of promisor object
references.
(In list-objects.c, the case where obj is NULL in process_blob() and
process_tree() do not need to be changed because those happen only when
there is a conflict between the expected type and the existing object.
If the object doesn't exist, an object will be synthesized, which is
fine.)

Teach rev-list to use the filtering provided by the
traverse_commit_list_filtered() interface to omit
unwanted objects from the result.
Object filtering is only allowed when one of the "--objects*"
options are used.
When the "--filter-print-omitted" option is used, the omitted
objects are printed at the end. These are marked with a "~".
This option can be combined with "--quiet" to get a list of
just the omitted objects.
Add t6112 test.
In the future, we will introduce a "partial clone" mechanism
wherein an object in a repo, obtained from a remote, may
reference a missing object that can be dynamically fetched from
that remote once needed. This "partial clone" mechanism will
have a way, sometimes slow, of determining if a missing link
is one of the links expected to be produced by this mechanism.
This patch introduces handling of missing objects to help
debugging and development of the "partial clone" mechanism,
and once the mechanism is implemented, for a power user to
perform operations that are missing-object aware without
incurring the cost of checking if a missing link is expected.

The change in list-objects.c is rather minimal as we'll be re-using

example one could expect that add_pending_tree is not called, but rather
commit->tree is directly passed to the tree traversal function. This

There is no portable way to pass timezone information to strftime. Add
parameters for timezone offset and name to strbuf_addftime and let it
handle the timezone-related format specifiers %z and %Z internally.
Callers can opt out for %Z by passing NULL as timezone name. %z is
always handled internally -- this helps on Windows, where strftime would
expand it to a timezone name (same as %Z), in violation of POSIX.
Modifiers are not handled, e.g. %Ez is still passed to strftime.
Use an empty string as timezone name in show_date (the only current
caller) for now because we only have the timezone offset in non-local
mode. POSIX allows %Z to resolve to an empty string in case of missing
information.

In the future we might use some completely unrelated library to

We already have "--date=raw", which is a Unix epoch
timestamp plus a contextual timezone (either the author's or
the local). But one may not care about the timezone and just
want the epoch timestamp by itself. It's not hard to parse
the two apart, but if you are using a pretty-print format,
you may want git to show the "finished" form that the user
will see.
We can accomodate this by adding a new date format, "unix",
which is basically "raw" without the timezone.

The "raw" format shows a Unix epoch timestamp, but with a
timezone tacked on. The timestamp is not _in_ that zone, but
it is extra information about the time (by default, the zone
the author was in).
The documentation claims that "raw-local" does not work. It
does, but the end result is rather subtle. Let's describe it
in better detail, and test to make sure it works (namely,
the epoch time doesn't change, but the zone does).
While we are rewording the documentation in this area, let's
not use the phrase "does not work" for the remaining option,
"--date=relative". It's vague; do we accept it or not? We do
accept it, but it has no effect (which is a reasonable
outcome). We should also refer to the option not as
"--relative" (which is the historical synonym, and does not
take "-local" at all), but as "--date=relative".

We document that asking for HEAD@{now} will switch the
output to show HEAD@{timestamp}, but not that specifying
`--date` has a similar effect, or that it can be overridden
with HEAD@{0}. Let's do so.
These rules come from 794151e (reflog-walk: always make
HEAD@{0} show indexed selectors, 2012-05-04), though that is
simply the culmination of years of these heuristics growing
organically.

When "log -g" shows "HEAD@{1}", "HEAD@{2}", etc, calling
that "commit@{Nth}" is not really accurate. The "HEAD" part
is really the refname. By saying "commit", a reader may
misunderstand that to mean something related to the specific
commit we are showing, not the ref whose reflog we are
traversing.
While we're here, let's also switch these instances to use
literal backticks, as our style guide recommends. As a
bonus, that lets us drop some asciidoc quoting.
