2007-06-07War on whitespaceJunio C Hamano
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.

2006-09-13unpack-objects -r: call it "recover".Junio C Hamano
The code called this operation "desperate" but the option flag is -r and the word "recover" describes what it does better. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2006-09-04unpack-objects desperately salvages objects from a corrupt packJunio C Hamano
The command unpack-objects dies upon the first error. This is probably considered a feature -- if a pack is corrupt, instead of trying to extract from it and possibly risking to contaminate a good repository with objects whose validity is dubious, we should seek a good copy of the pack and retry. However, we may not have any good copy anywhere. This implements the last resort effort to extract what are salvageable from such a corrupt pack. This flag might have helped Sergio when recovering from a corrupt pack. In my test, it managed to salvage 247 objects out of a pack that had 251 objects but without it the command stopped after extracting 73 objects. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
