Add a new merge strategy by Fredrik Kuivinen.
I really wanted to try this out, instead of asking for an adjustment
to the 'git merge' driver and waiting. For now the new strategy is
called 'fredrik' and not in the list of default strategies to be tried.
The script wants Python 2.4 so this commit also adjusts Debian and RPM

Multi-backend merge driver.
The new command 'git merge' takes the current head and one or more
remote heads, with the commit log message for the automated case.
If the heads being merged are simple fast-forwards, it acts the
same way as the current 'git resolve'. Otherwise, it tries
different merge strategies and takes the result from the one that
succeeded auto-merging, if there is any.
If no merge strategy succeeds auto-merging, their results are
evaluated for number of paths needed for hand resolving, and the
one with the least number of such paths is left in the working
tree. The user is asked to resolve them by hand and make a
commit manually.
The calling convention from the 'git merge' driver to merge
strategy programs is very simple:
- A strategy program is to be called 'git-merge-<strategy>'.
- They take input of this form:
<common1> <common2> ... '--' <head> <remote1> <remote2>...
That is, one or more the common ancestors, double dash, the
current head, and one or more remote heads being merged into
the current branch.
- Before a strategy program is called, the working tree is
matched to the current <head>.
- The strategy program exits with status code 0 when it
successfully auto-merges the given heads. It should do
update-cache for all the merged paths when it does so -- the
index file will be used to record the merge result as a
commit by the driver.
- The strategy program exits with status code 1 when it leaves
conflicts behind. It should do update-cache for all the
merged paths that it successfully auto-merged, and leave the
cache entry in the index file as the same as <head> for paths
it could not auto-merge, and leave its best-effort result
with conflict markers in the working tree when it does so.
- The strategy program exists with status code other than 0 or
1 if it does not handle the given merge at all.
As examples, this commit comes with merge strategies based on
'git resolve' and 'git octopus'.

We now keep track of the patches merged in each branch since they have

If patches from a related branch are merged out-of-order, we keep track of

[PATCH] Explain what went wrong on update-cache of new file
If somebody tries to run `git update-cache foo', where foo is a new
file, git dies with a rather cryptic error message:
fatal: Unable to add foo to database
This trivial patch makes git explain what probably went wrong. It is
not a perfect diagnosis of all error paths, but for 90% of the cases it
should provide the user with the clue they need.

confusing error message I noticed while reviewing the code.]

[PATCH] Initial import of git-archimport-script
Imports a project history from one or more Arch repositories, following
the branching and tagging across repositories. Note you should import
separate projects to separate GIT repositories.
Supported
- Imports, tags and simple commits.
- File renames
- Arch tags
- Binary files
- Large trees
- Multiple repositories
- Branches
TODO:
- Allow re-running the import on an already-imported project
- Follow merges using Arch data
- Audit shell escaping of filenames
- Better support for file metadata
- Better/safer creation of temp directories
Unsupported:
- Arch 'configuration'
[jc: my arch/tla is very rusty and after Tom announced he is stepping
down as the maintainer I have very little motivation to relearn it,
so I would appreciate if people discuss any bugs or enhancements
directly with Martin. Of course I can help with the git end of the
issues.]

When testing bisection and using gitk to visualize the result, it was
obvious that the termination condition was broken.
We know what the bad entry is only when the bisection ends up telling us
to test the known-bad entry again.
Also, add a safety net: if somebody marks as good something that includes
the known-bad point, we now notice and complain, instead of writing an
empty revision to the new bisection branch.

[PATCH] Make "git resolve" less scary
When we resolve a merge between two branches, and it removes a file in the
current branch, we notify the person doing the resolve with a big nice
notice like
Removing xyzzy
which is all well and good.
HOWEVER, we also do this when the file was actually removed in the current
branch, and we're merging with another branch that didn't have it removed
(or, indeed, if the other branch _did_ have it removed, but the common
parent was far enough back that the file still existed in there).
And that just doesn't make sense. In that case we're not removing
anything: the file didn't exist in the branch we're merging into in the
first place. So the message just makes people nervous, and makes no sense.
This has been around forever, but I never bothered to do anything about
it.
Until now.
The trivial fix is to only talk about removing files if the file existed
in the branch we're merging into, but will not exist in the result.
