git-svn: branch: avoid systematic prompt for cert/pass

Commands such as "git svn init/fetch/dcommit" do not prompt for client
certificate/password if they are stored in SVN config file.  Make
"git svn branch" consistent with the other commands, as SVN::Client is
capable of building its own authentication baton from information in the
SVN config directory.

git svn: info: correctly handle absolute path args

Calling "git svn info $(pwd)" would hit:
  "Reading from filehandle failed at ..."
errors due to improper prefixing and canonicalization.

Strip the toplevel path from absolute filesystem paths to ensure
downstream canonicalization routines are only exposed to paths
tracked in git (or SVN).

v2:
  Thanks to Andrej Manduch for originally noticing the issue
  and fixing my original version of this to handle
  more corner cases such as "/path/to/top/../top" and
  "/path/to/top/../top/file" as shown in the new test cases.

v3:
  Fix pathname portability problems pointed out by Johannes Sixt
  with a hint from brian m. carlson.

git-svn.txt: Remove mentions of repack options

Git no longer seems to use these flags or their associated config keys;
when they are present, git-svn outputs a message indicating that they
are being ignored.

git svn: find-rev allows short switches for near matches

Allow -B and -A to act as short aliases for --before and --after
options respectively.  This reduces typing and hopefully allows
reuse of muscle memory for grep(1) users.

git-svn: delay term initialization

On my Debian 7 system, this fixes annoying warnings when the output
of "git svn" commands are redirected:

    Unable to get Terminal Size. The TIOCGWINSZ ioctl didn't work.
    The COLUMNS and LINES environment variables didn't work. The
    resize program didn't work.

t/lib-httpd: check for NO_CURL

We already do this check individually in each of the tests
that includes lib-httpd. Let's factor it out.

There is one test (t5540) that uses lib-httpd but does not
currently do this check. But it actually has a stricter
check which is a superset (it needs all of the requirements
to have built git-http-push, one of which is not setting
NO_CURL), so adding this extra check won't hurt anything.
http: turn off curl signals

Curl sets and clears the handler for SIGALRM, which makes it
incompatible with git's progress code. However, we can ask
curl not to do this.
http: refactor http_request function

This function takes a flag to indicate where the output
should go (either to a file or to a strbuf). This flag is
mostly used to set the callback function we hand to curl.

This isn't very flexible for adding new output types.
Instead, let's just let callers pass in the callback
function directly. This results in shorter, more readable,
and more flexible code.

The only other thing the flag was used for was to set a
"Range" header when we already have a partial file (by using
the results of ftell). This patch also adds an "offset"
parameter, which can be used by callers to specify this
feature separately (which is also more flexible, as non-FILE
callers can now resume partial transfers).
http: add a public function for arbitrary-callback request

The http_request function recently learned to take arbitrary
callbacks; let's expose this functionality to callers.
remote-curl: use http callback for requesting refs

This should behave identically to the current strbuf code,
but opens up room for us to do more clever things with
bundles in a future patch.
transport: factor out bundle to ref list conversion

There is a data structure mismatch between what the
transport code wants (a linked list of "struct ref") and
what the bundle header provides (an array of ref names and
sha1s), so the transport code has to convert.

Let's factor out this conversion to make it useful to other
transport-ish callers (like remote-curl).
bundle: add is_bundle_buf helper

This is similar to is_bundle, but checks an in-memory buffer
rather than a file. It also works on a partial buffer,
checking only the bundle signature. This means the result is
a three-way conditional: yes, no, or "we do not have enough
data yet".
remote-curl: free "discovery" object

We cache the last-used "discovery" object, which contains
the data we pulled from the remote about which refs it has,
which saves us an HTTP round-trip when somebody does
something like "list" followed by "fetch".

We don't bother free()ing it at the end of the program
because it just contains memory which will be reclaimed by
the OS. However, cleaning up explicitly will future-proof us
against later changes which will add external storage (like
temporary files).
remote-curl: auto-detect bundles when fetching refs

You can't currently fetch from a network bundle, like:

  git fetch http://example.com/foo.bundle

This patch takes the first (and biggest) step towards that
working: it auto-detects when fetching refs results in a
bundle, and automatically spools the bundle to disk and
fetches from it.

There are a few important design decisions to note:

  1. We auto-detect the bundle based on content, not based
     on a special token in the URL (like ending in
     ".bundle"). This lets the server side be flexible with
     its URLs (e.g., "http://example.com/bundle?repo=foo").

  2. When fetching refs, we don't actually fetch $URL, but
     start with $URL/info/refs, looking for smart or dumb
     http. Some servers, when file "foo.bundle" exists, will
     serve it to the client when "foo.bundle/info/refs" is
     requested. Therefore we may be "surprised" to receive a
     bundle when we thought we were just getting the list of
     refs, and need to handle it appropriately.

  3. We spool the bundle to disk, and then run "index-pack
     --fix-thin" to create a packfile. That means we will
     momentarily use twice the size of the bundle in local
     disk space. Avoiding this would mean piping directly to
     "index-pack --fix-thin".  However, if we want to be
     able to resume the transfer of the bundle after an
     interruption, then we need to save the bundle's pack.

     In theory a smart index-pack that was interrupted could
     write out its partial results along with a count of how
     many bytes it actually consumed (i.e., where to resume
     next time), and then pick up where it left off when fed
     the rest of the data. But index-pack isn't that smart
     yet, so let's start off with spooling.

No tests yet, as apache is not one of the "surprising"
servers from (2), and our test harness is based around that
(though just with this patch, you can fetch from surprising
servers like lighttpd).
remote-curl: try base $URL after $URL/info/refs

When fetching via http, we will try "$URL/info/refs" to get
the list of refs. We may get an unexpected bundle from that
transfer, and we already handle that case. But we should
also check just "$URL" to see if it's a bundle.
progress: allow pure-throughput progress meters

The progress code assumes we are counting something (usually
objects), even if we are measuring throughput. This works
for fetching packfiles, since they show us the object count
alongside the throughput, like:

  Receiving objects:   2% (301/11968), 22.00 MiB | 10.97 MiB/s

You can also tell the progress code you don't know how many
items you have (by specifying a total of 0), and it looks
like:

  Counting objects: 34957

However, if you're fetching a single large item, you want
throughput but you might not have a meaningful count. You
can say you are getting item 0 or 1 out of 1 total, but then
the percent meter is misleading:

  Downloading:   0% (0/1), 22.00 MiB | 10.97 MiB/s

or

  Downloading: 100% (0/1), 22.00 MiB | 10.97 MiB/s

Neither of those is accurate. You are probably somewhere
between zero and 100 percent through the operation, but you
don't know how far.

Telling it you don't know how many items is even uglier:

  Downloading: 1, 22.00 MiB | 10.97 MiB/s

Instead, this patch will omit the count entirely if you are
on the zero-th item of an unknown number of items. It looks
like:

  Downloading: 22.00 MiB | 10.97 MiB/s
remote-curl: show progress for bundle downloads

Generally, the point of fetching from a bundle is that it's
big. Without a progress meter, git will appear to hang
during the long download.

This patch adds a throughput meter (i.e., just the bytes
transferred and the rate). In the long run, we should look
for a content-length header from the server so we can show a
total size and completion percentage. However, displaying
that properly will require some surgery to the progress
code, so let's leave it as a future enhancement.
remote-curl: resume interrupted bundle transfers

If we have a bundle file from a previous fetch that matches
this URL, then we should resume the transfer where we left
off.
clone: give advice on how to resume a failed clone

When clone fails, we usually delete the partial directory.
However, if cloning was fetching a bundle, that is resumable
and we should consider those results precious.

This patch detects when a partial bundle is present,
preserves the directory, and gives the user some advice
about how to resume.
