Otherwise we would end up linking all the unneeded stuff into git-daemon
only to link with git_default_config.

With "[core] filemode = false", you can tell git to ignore
differences in the working tree file only in executable bit.

 * "git-update-index --refresh" does not say "needs update" if index
   entry and working tree file differs only in executable bit.

 * "git-update-index" on an existing path takes executable bit
   from the existing index entry, if the path and index entry are
   both regular files.

 * "git-diff-files" and "git-diff-index" without --cached flag
   pretend the path on the filesystem has the same executable
   bit as the existing index entry, if the path and index entry
   are both regular files.

If you are on a filesystem with unreliable mode bits, you may need to
force the executable bit after registering the path in the index.

 * "git-update-index --chmod=+x foo" flips the executable bit of the
   index file entry for path "foo" on.  Use "--chmod=-x" to flip it
   off.

Note that --chmod only works in index file and does not look at nor
update the working tree.

So if you are on a filesystem and do not have working executable bit,
you would do:

 1. set the appropriate .git/config option;

 2. "git-update-index --add new-file.c"

 3. "git-ls-files --stage new-file.c" to see if it has the desired
   mode bits.  If not, e.g. to drop executable bit picked up from the
   filesystem, say "git-update-index --chmod=-x new-file.c".

This is a long overdue clean-up to the code for parsing and passing
diff options.  It also tightens some constness issues.

As promised, this is the "big tool rename" patch.  The primary differences
since 0.99.6 are:

  (1) git-*-script are no more.  The commands installed do not
      have any such suffix so users do not have to remember if
      something is implemented as a shell script or not.

  (2) Many command names with 'cache' in them are renamed with
      'index' if that is what they mean.

There are backward compatibility symblic links so that you and
Porcelains can keep using the old names, but the backward
compatibility support  is expected to be removed in the near
future.
