We do not usually end our errors with a full stop, but it
looks especially bad when you use die_errno, which adds a
colon, like:

If clone fails, we generally try to clean up any directories
we've created. We do this by installing an atexit handler,
so that we don't have to manually trigger cleanup. However,
since we install this after touching the filesystem, any
errors between our initial mkdir() and our atexit() call
will result in us leaving a crufty directory around.
We can fix this by moving our atexit() call earlier. It's OK
to do it before the junk_work_tree variable is set, because
remove_junk makes sure the variable is initialized. This
means we "activate" the handler by assigning to the
junk_work_tree variable, which we now bump down to just
after we call mkdir(). We probably do not want to do it
before, because a plausible reason for mkdir() to fail is
EEXIST (i.e., we are racing with another "git init"), and we
would not want to remove their work.
OTOH, this is probably not that big a deal; we will allow
cloning into an empty directory (and skip the mkdir), which
is already racy (i.e., one clone may see the other's empty
dir and start writing into it). Still, it does not hurt to
err on the side of caution here.
Note that writing into junk_work_tree and junk_git_dir after
installing the handler is also technically racy, as we call
our handler on an async signal. Depending on the platform,
we could see a sheared write to the variables. Traditionally
we have not worried about this, and indeed we already do
this later in the function. If we want to address that, it
can come as a separate topic.

Right now we return a NULL "struct sha1file" if we encounter
an error. However, the sole caller (write_idx_file) does not
check the return value, and will segfault if we hit this
case.
One option would be to handle the error in the caller.
However, there's really nothing for it to do but die. This
code path is hit during "git index-pack --verify"; after we
verify the packfile, we check that the ".idx" we would
generate from it is byte-wise identical to what is on disk.
We hit the error (and segfault) if we can't open the .idx
file (a likely cause of this is that somebody else ran "git
repack -ad" while we were verifying). Since we can't
complete the requested verification, we really have no
choice but to die.
Furthermore, the rest of the sha1fd_* functions simply die
on errors. So if were to open the file successfully, for
example, and then hit a read error, sha1write would call
die() for us. So pushing the die() down into sha1fd_check
keeps the interface consistent.

When grep is called with the --quiet option, the pager is initialized
despite not being used. When the pager is "less", anything output by
previous commands and not ended with a newline is overwritten:
$ echo -n aaa; echo bbb
aaabbb
$ echo -n aaa; git grep -q foo; echo bbb
bbb
This can be worked around, for example, by making sure STDOUT is not a
TTY or more directly by setting git's pager to "cat":
$ echo -n aaa; git grep -q foo > /dev/null; echo bbb
aaabbb
$ echo -n aaa; PAGER=cat git grep -q foo; echo bbb
aaabbb
But prevent calling the pager in the first place, which would also
save an unnecessary fork().

xgettext sees "% o" and interprets it as a placeholder for an octal
number preceded by a space. However, in this case it's not actually a
placeholder, and most translations will replace the "% o" sequence with
something else. Removing the tcl-format flag from this string prevents
tools like Poedit from freaking out when "% o" doesn't appear in the
translated string.
The corrected flag will appear in each translation's po file the next time
the translation is updated with `make update-po`.

"git log --grep=<string>" shows only commits with messages that
match the given string, but sometimes it is useful to be able to
show only commits that do *not* have certain messages (e.g. "show
me ones that are not FIXUP commits").
Now the underlying "git log" learned the "--invert-grep" option.
The option syntactically behaves similar to "--all-match" that
requires that all of the grep strings to match and semantically
behaves the opposite---it requires that none of the grep strings to
match.
Teach "gitk" to allow users to pass it down to underlying "git log"

If several gitk instances are closed simultaneously, the savestuff
procedure can run at the same time, resulting in a conflict which may
cause losing of some of the instance's changes, failing the saving
operation or even corrupting the configuration file. This can happen,
for example, at user session closing, or at group closing of all
instances of an application which is possible in some desktop
environments.
To avoid this, make sure that only one saving operation is in
progress. It is guarded by existence of the $config_file_tmp
file. Creating the file and moving it to $config_file are both atomic
operations, so it should be reliable.
Reading does not need to be syncronized, because moving is an atomic
operation, and the $config_file always refers to a full and correct file.
But, if there is a stale $config_file_tmp file, report it at gitk start.
If such file is detected when saving, just report it abort the save, as
for other errors in saving.

When gitk contains some changed parameter, and there is an existing
instance of gitk where the parameter is still old, it is reverted to
that old value when that instance exits.
Instead, store a parameter in config only if it has been modified in
the exiting instance. Otherwise, preserve the value which currently is in
file. This allows editing the configuration when several instances are
running, without rollback of the modification if some other
instance where the configuration was not edited is closed last.
For scalar variables, use trace(3tcl) to detect their change. Since
`trace` can send bogus events, doublecheck if the value has really
been changed, but once it is marked as changed, do not reset it back
to unchanged ever, because if user has restored the original value,
it's the decision which should be stored as well as modified value.
Treat view list especially: instead of rewriting the whole list, merge
individual views. Place old and updated views in their old places,
add new ones to the end of list. Collect modified views explicitly, in
newviewok{} and delview{}.
Do not merge geometry values. They are almost always changing because
user moves and resises windows, and there is no way to find which one of
the geometries is most desired. Just overwrite them unconditionally,
like earlier.

The current definition results in an incorrect expansion of the term under zsh.
For instance "/^${1////\\/}/" under zsh with the argument "hi" results in:
/^/\/h/\/i/
This results in an output similar to this when trying to complete `git grep
chartab` under zsh:
:: git grep chartabawk: cmd. line:1: /^/\/c/\/h/\/a/\/r/\/t/\/a/\/b/ { print $1 }
awk: cmd. line:1: ^ backslash not last character on line
awk: cmd. line:1: /^/\/c/\/h/\/a/\/r/\/t/\/a/\/b/ { print $1 }
awk: cmd. line:1: ^ syntax error
Leaving the prompt in a goofy state until the user hits a key.
Escaping the literal / in the parameter expansion (using "/^${1//\//\\/}/")
results in:
/^chartab/
allowing the completion to work correctly.
This formulation also works under bash.

There are several utility functions (hashcmp and friends) that are used
for comparing object IDs (SHA-1 values). Using these functions, which
take pointers to unsigned char, with struct object_id requires tiresome
access to the sha1 member, which bloats code and violates the desired
encapsulation. Provide wrappers around these functions for struct
object_id for neater, more maintainable code. Use the new constants to
avoid the hard-coded 20s and 40s throughout the original functions.
These functions simply call the underlying pointer-to-unsigned-char
versions to ensure that any performance improvements will be passed
through to the new functions.
