This cleans up the boundary processing in the commit walker. It - rips out the boundary logic from the commit walker. Placing "negative" commits in the revs->commits list was Ok if all we cared about "boundary" was the UNINTERESTING limiting case, but conceptually it was wrong. - makes get_revision_1() function to walk the commits and return the results as if there is no funny postprocessing flags such as --reverse, --skip nor --max-count. - makes get_revision() function the postprocessing phase: If reverse is given, wait for get_revision_1() to give everything that it would normally give, and then reverse it before consuming. If skip is given, skip that many before going further. If max is given, stop when we gave out that many. Now that we are about to return one positive commit, mark the parents of that commit to be potential boundaries before returning, iff we are doing the boundary processing. Return the commit. - After get_revision() finishes giving out all the positive commits, if we are doing the boundary processing, we look at the parents that we marked as potential boundaries earlier, see if they are really boundaries, and give them out. It loses more code than it adds, even when the new gc_boundary() function, which is purely for early optimization, is counted. Note that this patch is purely for eyeballing and discussion only. It breaks git-bundle's verify logic because the logic does not use BOUNDARY_SHOW flag for its internal computation anymore. After we correct it not to attempt to affect the boundary processing by setting the BOUNDARY_SHOW flag, we can remove BOUNDARY_SHOW from revision.h and use that bit assignment for the new CHILD_SHOWN flag.

//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// GIT - the stupid content tracker //////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// "git" can mean anything, depending on your mood. - random three-letter combination that is pronounceable, and not actually used by any common UNIX command. The fact that it is a mispronunciation of "get" may or may not be relevant. - stupid. contemptible and despicable. simple. Take your pick from the dictionary of slang. - "global information tracker": you're in a good mood, and it actually works for you. Angels sing, and a light suddenly fills the room. - "goddamn idiotic truckload of sh*t": when it breaks Git is a fast, scalable, distributed revision control system with an unusually rich command set that provides both high-level operations and full access to internals. Git is an Open Source project covered by the GNU General Public License. It was originally written by Linus Torvalds with help of a group of hackers around the net.
