A remote can have a multitude of refspecs. Up to now our git_remote's
have supported a single one for each fetch and push out of simplicity
to get something working.
Let the remotes and internal code know about multiple remotes and get
the tests passing with them.
Instead of setting a refspec, the external users can clear all and add
refspecs. This should be enough for most uses, though we're still
missing a querying function.
This adds some hooks into the filesystem iterator so that the
workdir iterator can just become a wrapper around it. Then we
remove most of the workdir iterator code and just have it augment
the filesystem iterator with skipping .git entries, updating the
ignore stack, and checking for submodules.
This adds a new variant iterator that is a raw filesystem iterator
for scanning directories from a root. There is still more work to
do to blend this with the working directory iterator.
If the on-disk file has been staged (it's stat data matches the stat data
in the cache) then we need not hash the file to determine whether it
differs from the checkout target; instead we can simply use the oid in
the index.
This prevents recomputing a file's hash unnecessarily, prevents loading
the file (when filtering) and prevents edge cases where filters suggest
that a file is dirty immediately after git writes the file.
This is the last minor release before 1.0preview1.
Highlights of this release include:
- Branch API
- Checkout head, index and tree
- Finished clone support
- Abstracted reference API to use custom backends
- Full diff support
- New (faster) packbuilder
- Push support
- New Remotes API
- Revparse support (single and range commits)
- Stash support
- Submodules support

Yeah, it's a huge release. Releasing stuff sucks.
Expect 1.0 and API freeze in less than a month.

Don't try to update anything if there are no heads to update. This
saves us from trying to look into a fetch refspec when there is none.
A better fix for compatibility with git when using remotes without
refspecs is still needed, but this stops us from segfaulting.
