There were some problems with the usage message clean-up patch
series. I hadn't realised that subdirectory aware scripts can't source
git-sh-setup. I propose that we change this and let the scripts which
are subdirectory aware set a variable, SUBDIRECTORY_OK, before they
source git-sh-setup.
The scripts will also set USAGE and possibly LONG_USAGE before they
source git-sh-setup. If LONG_USAGE isn't set it defaults to USAGE.
If we go this way it's easy to catch --help in git-sh-setup, print the
(long) usage message to stdout and exit cleanly. git-sh-setup can
define a 'usage' shell function which can be called by the scripts to
print the short usage string to stderr and exit non-cleanly. It will
also be easy to change $0 to basename $0 or something else, if would
like to do that sometime in the future.
What follows is a patch to convert a couple of the commands to this
style. If it's ok with everyone to do it this way I will convert the
rest of the scripts too.
[jc: thrown in to proposed updates queue for comments.]

Any core commands that use setup_git_directory() now check if
given GIT_DIR is really a valid repository, so the same check in
git-sh-setup can use it without reimplementing it in shell.
This commit changes git-sh-setup to use git-var command for
that, although any other commands would do.
Note that we export GIT_DIR explicitly when calling git-var;
without it, the caller of this script would use GIT_DIR that we
return (which is to assume ./.git unless the caller has it
elsewhere) while git-var would go up to find a .git directory in
our parent directories, which would be checking a different
directory from what our callers will be using.

Now all the users of this script detect its exit status and die,
complaining that it is outside git repository. So move the code
that dies from all callers to git-sh-setup script.

This makes it possible to have a "sparse" git object subdirectory
structure, something that has become much more attractive now that people
use pack-files all the time.
As a result of pack-files, a git object directory doesn't necessarily have
any individual objects lying around, and in that case it's just wasting
space to keep the empty first-level object directories around: on many
filesystems the 256 empty directories will be aboue 1MB of diskspace.
Even more importantly, after you re-pack a project that _used_ to be
unpacked, you could be left with huge directories that no longer contain
anything, but that waste space and take time to look through.
With this change, "git prune-packed" can just do an rmdir() on the
directories, and they'll get removed if empty, and re-created on demand.
This patch also tries to fix up "write_sha1_from_fd()" to use the new
common infrastructure for creating the object files, closing a hole where
we might otherwise leave half-written objects in the object database.
[jc: I unoptimized the part that really removes the fan-out directories
to ease transition. init-db still wastes 1MB of diskspace to hold 256
empty fan-outs, and prune-packed rmdir()'s the grown but empty directories,
but runs mkdir() immediately after that -- reducing the saving from 150KB
to 146KB. These parts will be re-introduced when everybody has the
on-demand capability.]

This adds the counterpart of git-update-ref that lets you read
and create "symbolic refs". By default it uses a symbolic link
to represent ".git/HEAD -> refs/heads/master", but it can be compiled
to use the textfile symbolic ref.
The places that did 'readlink .git/HEAD' and 'ln -s refs/heads/blah
.git/HEAD' have been converted to use new git-symbolic-ref command, so
that they can deal with either implementation.

My stupidity deserved to be yelled at by Linus ... there is no reason
to require the working tree to be clean when merging -- the only
requirements are index to match HEAD commit and the paths involved in
merge are up to date in the working tree. Revert and cherry-pick are
just specialized forms of merge, and the requirements should be the
same.
Remove the 'general purpose routine to make sure tree is clean' from
git-sh-setup, to prevent me from getting tempted again.

CDPATH has two problems:
* It takes scripts to unexpected places (somebody had
CDPATH=..:../..:$HOME and the "cd" in git-clone.sh:get_repo_base
took him to $HOME/.git when he said "clone foo bar" to clone a
repository in "foo" which had "foo/.git"). CDPATH mechanism does
not implicitly give "." at the beginning of CDPATH, which is
the most irritating part.
* The extra echo when it does its thing confuses scripts further.
Most of our scripts that use "cd" includes git-sh-setup so the problem
is primarily fixed there. git-clone starts without a repository, and
it needs its own fix.

As promised, this is the "big tool rename" patch. The primary differences
since 0.99.6 are:
(1) git-*-script are no more. The commands installed do not
have any such suffix so users do not have to remember if
something is implemented as a shell script or not.
(2) Many command names with 'cache' in them are renamed with
'index' if that is what they mean.
There are backward compatibility symblic links so that you and
Porcelains can keep using the old names, but the backward
compatibility support is expected to be removed in the near
future.
