This adds the basic infrastructure to assign attributes to
paths, in a way similar to what the exclusion mechanism does
based on $GIT_DIR/info/exclude and .gitignore files.
An attribute is just a simple string that does not contain any
whitespace. They can be specified in $GIT_DIR/info/attributes
file, and .gitattributes file in each directory.
Each line in these files defines a pattern matching rule.
Similar to the exclusion mechanism, a later match overrides an
earlier match in the same file, and entries from .gitattributes
file in the same directory takes precedence over the ones from
parent directories. Lines in $GIT_DIR/info/attributes file are
used as the lowest precedence default rules.
A line is either a comment (an empty line, or a line that begins
with a '#'), or a rule, which is a whitespace separated list of
tokens. The first token on the line is a shell glob pattern.
The rest are names of attributes, each of which can optionally
be prefixed with '!'. Such a line means "if a path matches this
glob, this attribute is set (or unset -- if the attribute name
is prefixed with '!'). For glob matching, the same "if the
pattern does not have a slash in it, the basename of the path is
matched with fnmatch(3) against the pattern, otherwise, the path
is matched with the pattern with FNM_PATHNAME" rule as the
exclusion mechanism is used.
This does not define what an attribute means. Tying an
attribute to various effects it has on git operation for paths
that have it will be specified separately.

Some workflows require use of repositories on machines that cannot be
connected, preventing use of git-fetch / git-push to transport objects and
references between the repositories.
git-bundle provides an alternate transport mechanism, effectively allowing
git-fetch and git-pull to operate using sneakernet transport. `git-bundle
create` allows the user to create a bundle containing one or more branches
or tags, but with specified basis assumed to exist on the target
repository. At the receiving end, git-bundle acts like git-fetch-pack,
allowing the user to invoke git-fetch or git-pull using the bundle file as
the URL. git-fetch and git-ls-remote determine they have a bundle URL by
checking that the URL points to a file, but are otherwise unchanged in
operation with bundles.
The original patch was done by Mark Levedahl <mdl123@verizon.net>.
It was updated to make git-bundle a builtin, and get rid of the tar
format: now, the first line is supposed to say "# v2 git bundle", the next
lines either contain a prerequisite ("-" followed by the hash of the
needed commit), or a ref (the hash of a commit, followed by the name of
the ref), and finally the pack. As a result, the bundle argument can be
"-" now.

With this flag and given two paths, git-diff-files behaves as a GNU diff
lookalike (plus the git goodies like --check, colour, etc.). This flag
is also available in git-diff. It also works outside of a git repository.
In addition, if git-diff{,-files} is called without revision or stage
parameter, and with exactly two paths at least one of which is not tracked,
the default is --no-index.
So, you can now say
git diff /etc/inittab /etc/fstab
and it actually works!
This also unifies the duplicated argument parsing between cmd_diff_files()
and builtin_diff_files().

This mechanically converts strncmp() to use prefixcmp(), but only when
the parameters match specific patterns, so that they can be verified
easily. Leftover from this will be fixed in a separate step, including
idiotic conversions like
if (!strncmp("foo", arg, 3))
=>
if (!(-prefixcmp(arg, "foo")))
This was done by using this script in px.perl
#!/usr/bin/perl -i.bak -p
if (/strncmp\(([^,]+), "([^\\"]*)", (\d+)\)/ && (length($2) == $3)) {
s|strncmp\(([^,]+), "([^\\"]*)", (\d+)\)|prefixcmp($1, "$2")|;
}
if (/strncmp\("([^\\"]*)", ([^,]+), (\d+)\)/ && (length($1) == $3)) {
s|strncmp\("([^\\"]*)", ([^,]+), (\d+)\)|(-prefixcmp($2, "$1"))|;
}
and running:
$ git grep -l strncmp -- '*.c' | xargs perl px.perl
