a6080a0a44 War on whitespace
This uses "git-apply --whitespace=strip" to fix whitespace errors that have
crept in to our source files over time.  There are a few files that need
to have trailing whitespaces (most notably, test vectors).  The results
still passes the test, and build result in Documentation/ area is unchanged.

5c94f87e6b use 'init' instead of 'init-db' for shipped docs and tools
While 'init-db' still is and probably will always remain a valid git
command for obvious backward compatibility reasons, it would be a good
idea to move shipped tools and docs to using 'init' instead.

6fcca938b0 Use $GITPERLLIB instead of $RUNNING_GIT_TESTS and centralize @INC munging
This makes the Git perl scripts check $GITPERLLIB instead of
$RUNNING_GIT_TESTS, which makes more sense if you are setting up your shell
environment to use a non-installed Git instance.

It also weeds out the @INC munging from the individual scripts and makes
Makefile add it during the .perl files processing, so that we can change
just a single place when we modify this shared logic. It looks ugly in the
scripts, too. ;-)

And instead of doing arcane things with the @INC array, we just do 'use lib'
instead, which is essentialy the same thing anyway.

I first want to do three separate patches but it turned out that it's quite
a lot neater when bundled together, so I hope it's ok.

556677144b autoconf: Use autoconf to write installation directories to config.mak.autogen
This is beginning of patch series introducing installation configuration
using autoconf (and no other autotools) to git. The idea is to generate
config.mak.autogen using ./configure (generated from configure.ac by running
autoconf) from config.mak.in, so one can use autoconf as an _alternative_ to
ordinary Makefile, and creating one's own config.mak. Local settings in
config.mak override generated settings in config.mak.autogen

This patch includes minimal configure.ac and config.mak.in, so one can set
installation directories using autoconf generated ./configure script
e.g. ./configure --prefix=/usr

765ac8ec46 Rip out merge-order and make "git log <paths>..." work again.
Well, assuming breaking --merge-order is fine, here's a patch (on top of
the other ones) that makes

	git log <filename>

actually work, as far as I can tell.

I didn't add the logic for --before/--after flags, but that should be
pretty trivial, and is independent of this anyway.

Some people may not want to install asciidoc/xmlto toolchain, so
redirect them to the man and html branches of the git.git
repository as well.]

663a5ed5ca [PATCH] There are several undocumented dependencies
There are several undocumented dependencies in the .spec and in the
INSTALL files. The following is from Fedora, perhaps other RPM
distributions call the packages differently.

Also, the manpages aren't always installed gzipped.

Updates to git-core.spec.in file:
 - Some git scripts use Perl
 - gitk needs wish, which is part of TCL/Tk.
 - curl is used all over
 - Need the ssh program from openssh-clients

Updates to INSTALL:
 - Mention wish
 - Mention ssh

215a7ad1ef Big tool rename.
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.
