git-svn: rename 'commit' command to 'set-tree'

'set-tree' probably accurately describes what the command
formerly known as 'commit' does.

I'm not entirely sure that 'dcommit' should be renamed to 'commit'
just yet...  Perhaps 'push' or 'push-changes'?

Align section headers of 'git status' to new 'git add'.

Now that 'git add' is considered a first-class UI for 'update-index'
and that the 'git add' documentation states "Even modified files
must be added to the set of changes about to be committed" we should
make the output of 'git status' align with that documentation and
common usage.

So now we see a status output such as:

  # Added but not yet committed:
  #   (will commit)
  #
  #       new file: x
  #
  # Changed but not added:
  #   (use "git add file1 file2" to include for commit)

  #       modified:   x
  #
  # Untracked files:
  #   (use "git add" on files to include for commit)
  #
  #       y

which just reads better in the context of using 'git add' to
manipulate a commit (and not a checkin, whatever the heck that is).

We also now support 'color.status.added' as an alias for the existing
'color.status.updated', as this alias more closely aligns with the
current output and documentation.

Enable reflogs by default in any repository with a working directory.

New and experienced Git users alike are finding out too late that
they forgot to enable reflogs in the current repository, and cannot
use the information stored within it to recover from an incorrectly
entered command such as `git reset --hard HEAD^^^` when they really
meant HEAD^^ (aka HEAD~2).

So enable reflogs by default in all future versions of Git, unless
the user specifically disables it with:

  [core]
    logAllRefUpdates = false

in their .git/config or ~/.gitconfig.

We only enable reflogs in repositories that have a working directory

an easy means to prune away old log entries, or may fail logging

or not git-init-db created a .git directory or used GIT_DIR.
As most users at that time were rather technical UNIXy folk the

But it doesn't really convey any meaning to the new Git user,

know enough about Git to care.  It also really doesn't tell the

Avoid accessing a slow working copy during diffcore operations.

The Cygwin folks have done a fine job at creating a POSIX layer
on Windows That Just Works(tm).  However it comes with a penalty;
accessing files in the working tree by way of stat/open/mmap can
be slower for diffcore than inflating the data from a blob which
is stored in a packfile.

This performance problem is especially an issue in merge-recursive
when dealing with nearly 7000 added files, as we are loading
each file's content from the working directory to perform rename
detection.  I have literally seen (and sadly watched) paint dry in
less time than it takes for merge-recursive to finish such a merge.
On the other hand this very same merge runs very fast on Solaris.

If Git is compiled with NO_FAST_WORKING_DIRECTORY set then we will
avoid looking at the working directory when the blob in question
is available within a packfile and the caller doesn't need the data
unpacked into a temporary file.

We don't use loose objects as they have the same open/mmap/close
costs as the working directory file access, but have the additional
CPU overhead of needing to inflate the content before use.  So it
is still faster to use the working tree file over the loose object.

If the caller needs the file data unpacked into a temporary file
its likely because they are going to call an external diff program,
passing the file as a parameter.  In this case reusing the working
tree file will be faster as we don't need to inflate the data and
write it out to a temporary file.

The NO_FAST_WORKING_DIRECTORY feature is enabled by default on
Cygwin, as that is the platform which currently appears to benefit
the most from this option.
