This latter part probably needs more testing in the MinGW case.
This change also improves how we start gitk. If the user is on any type
of Windows system its known that gitk won't start right if ~/.gitk exists.
So we delete it before starting if we are running on any type of Windows
operating system. We always use the same wish executable which launched
git-gui to start gitk; this way on Windows we don't have to jump back to
/bin/sh just to go into the first wish found in the user's PATH. This
should help on MinGW when we probably don't want to spawn a shell just
to start gitk.

If we are displaying a diff for a DOS-style (CRLF) formatted file then
the Tk text widget would normally show the CR at the end of every line;
in most fonts this will come out as a square box. Rather than showing
this character we'll tag it with a tag which forces the character to
be elided away, so its not displayed. However since the character is
still within the text buffer we can still obtain it and supply it over

that the file contents is always fully preserved as-is.
Signed-off-by: Shawn O. Pearce <spearce@spearce.org>
Just like `git-add --interactive` we can now stage and unstage individual
hunks within a file, rather than the entire file at once. This works
on the basic idea of scanning backwards from the mouse position to
find the hunk header, then going forwards to find the end of the hunk.
Everything in that is sent to `git apply --cached`, prefixed by the
diff header lines.
We ignore whitespace errors while applying a hunk, as we expect the
user's pre-commit hook to catch any possible problems. This matches
our existing behavior with regards to adding an entire file with
no whitespace error checking.
Applying hunks means that we now have to capture and save the diff header
lines, rather than chucking them. Not really a big deal, we just needed
a new global to hang onto that current header information. We probably
could have recreated it on demand during apply_hunk but that would mean
we need to implement all of the funny rules about how to encode weird
path names (e.g. ones containing LF) into a diff header so that the
`git apply` process would understand what we are asking it to do. Much
simpler to just store this small amount of data in a global and replay
it when needed.
I'm making absolutely no attempt to correct the line numbers on the
remaining hunk headers after one hunk has been applied. This may
cause some hunks to fail, as the position information would not be
correct. Users can always refresh the current diff before applying a
failing hunk to work around the issue. Perhaps if we ever implement
hunk splitting we could also fix the remaining hunk headers.
Applying hunks directly means that we need to process the diff data in
binary, rather than using the system encoding and an automatic linefeed
translation. This ensures that CRLF formatted files will be able to be
fed directly to `git apply` without failures. Unfortunately it also means
we will see CRs show up in the GUI as ugly little boxes at the end of
each line in a CRLF file.

but perhaps there is a bug in Tcl/Tk 8.4.1 on Windows which is
causing this odd behavior.

git-gui: Don't attempt to tag new file/deleted file headers in diffs.
We don't want to tag these new file/delete file lines, as they aren't
actually that interesting. Its quite clear from the diff itself that
the file is a new file or is a deleted file (as the entire thing will
appear in the diff).

git-gui: Force an update-index --refresh on unchanged files.
Its possible for external programs to update file modification dates of
many files within a repository. I've seen this on Windows with a popular
virus scanner, sadly enough. If the user has Trust File Modification
Timestamp enabled and the virus scanner touches a large number of files
it can be annoying trying to clear them out of the 'Changed But Not
Updated' file list by clicking on them one at a time to load the diff.
So now we force a rescan as soon as one such file is found, and for
just that rescan we disable the Trust File Modification Timestamp option
thereby allowing Git to update the modification dates in the index.

git-gui: Create missing branch head on initial commit.
If we are making an initial commit our branch head did not exist when
we scanned for all heads during startup. Consequently we won't have
it in our branch menu. So force it to be put there after the ref was
created.

git-gui: Slightly tweak new window geometry.
I didn't really like the way a new git-gui launched in a new repository
as the window geometry wasn't quite the best layou. So this is a minor
tweak to try and get space distributed around the window better.
By decreasing the widths we're also able to shrink the gui smaller
without Tk clipping content at the edge of the window. A nice feature.

git-gui: Correctly categorize tracking branches and heads.
Up until now git-gui did not support the new wildcard syntax used to
fetch any remote branch into a tracking branch during 'git fetch'. Now
if we identify a tracking branch as ending with the string '/*' then
we use for-each-ref to print out the reference names which may have
been fetched by that pattern. We also now correctly filter any
tracking branches out of refs/heads, if they user has placed any there.

git-gui: Automatically toggle the relevant radio buttons.
When the user selects a starting revision from one of our offered popup
lists (local branches or tracking branches) or enters in an expression
in the expression input field we should automatically activate the
corresponding radio button for them.

git-gui: Fully select a field when entering into it.
If the user is tabbing through fields in the options dialog they are
likely to want to just enter a new value for the field, rather than
edit the value in-place. This is easier if we select the entire value
upon focusing into the field.

git-gui: Improve keyboard traversal in dialogs.
When we are in a dialog such as the new branch dialog or our options
dialog we should permit the user to traverse around through the available
widgets with their Tab/Shift-Tab key combinations. So in any single
line text field where we don't want tab characters to actually be
inserted into the value rebind Tab and Shift-Tab to honor what the
tk_focusPrev and tk_focusNext scripts recommend.
