make 'got tag' unlock the work tree earlier when creating tags The work tree was only held open in order to find its got.conf file since this file could contain a tagger name to use. Read the tagger name earlier. Once the tagger name is known we can close the work tree already.

make 'got tag -l' unlock the work tree earlier to allow other parallel commands

make 'got cat' not search for a work tree if the -r option is used Fixes failures in our test suite if 'got tag -l | less' is used in the work tree while cmdline tests are running.

leave work tree in a usable state after 'got rebase' fails path-prefix checks reported by naddy

pass an already open commit object to the blame callback ok op@

stop relying on commit cache for good performance of got_object_id_by_path() Instead of internally opening and closing the same commit object over and over again, require callers to pass an open commit object in. Avoids an inherent dependency on the commit object cache for reasonable performance. ok op@

got patch: allow to strip path components Move some bits from the libexec helper to the main process so we know if the patch was generated by git or not and finally document the automatic stripping of a/ and b/ prefixes added by git-diff(1). ok stsp@

augment patch progress callback with hunks info; recover from errors Augment got_patch_progress_cb by providing the hunks that were applied with offset (or that failed) and the recoverable error encountered during the operation (bad status, missing file, ...) got_patch now proceeds when a file fails to be patched and exits with GOT_ERR_PATCH_FAILED if no other errors are encountered. While here, also add a test for the 'hunk applied with offset' case and shrink test_patch_dont_apply and illegal_status by taking advantage that 'got patch' doesn't stop at the first error. (And add some other cases to illegal_status too.) discussed with and ok stsp@

got patch: keep permissions after patching a file ok stsp@

introduce got_patch_progress_cb This introduce a proper got_patch specific progress callback that is invoked after processing a patch. It also drops the hackish printf in the modified case and takes `nop' out of the struct got_patch. ok stsp

print additional progress information while packing ok op@

add a dry-run/nop mode for got patch with lots of help from stsp for the manpage bits!

check file status before applying the patch Don't allow `got patch' to delete files that are not known, or add files that are already known and to edit files that are known, not obstructed and without conflicts.

make got log, diff, blame, tree, and cat unlock the work tree earlier These commands perform potentially long-running operations on the repository after reading information from the work tree. There is no need for them to keep the work tree locked until the end. Doing so blocks other commands the user may want to run concurrently. For example, the user may want to be able to run 'got diff' in the work tree while browsing 'got log' output in less(1). Pointed out by Misha on gameoftrees IRC.
