0e3233b913 git-gui: honor TCLTK_PATH in git-gui--askpass
Since its introduction in 8c76212 (git-gui: Add a simple implementation
of SSH_ASKPASS., 2008-10-15), git-gui--askpass has been calling whatever
wish interpreter is in the path, unlike git-gui.

Correct that by turning it into a script that would be processed at build
time.

df41037be0 git-gui: retire Git Gui.app
In a recent commit, the minimum version of Tcl/Tk was raised to
8.6, but the "app" relies on the system provided Framework that
is based on 8.5.

Remove it, and let git-gui use a third party version of Wish if
available.

3271d2e9e7 git-gui: replace GIT-GUI-VARS with GIT-GUI-BUILD-OPTIONS
The GIT-GUI-VARS file is used to track whether any of our build options
has changed. Unfortunately, the format of that file does not allow us to
propagate those build options to other scripts. But as we are about to
introduce support for the Meson build system, we will extract a couple
of scripts to deduplicate core build logic across Makefiles and Meson.
With this refactoring, it will become necessary to make build options
more widely accessible.

Replace GIT-GUI-VARS with a new GIT-GUI-BUILD-OPTIONS file that is being
populated from a template. This file can easily be sourced from build
scripts in subsequent steps.

8621581248 git-gui: Honor a config.mak in git-gui's top level
I keep forgetting to include TCLTK_PATH when I build git-gui on some
systems.  Placing that rule (among others) into a config.mak makes it
easier to compile the application the same way every time.

72a8e81d45 git-gui: Support a native Mac OS X application bundle
If we are building on Darwin (sometimes known as Mac OS X) and we
find the Mac OS X Tk.framework in the expected location we build
a proper Mac OS X application bundle with icons and info list.  The
git-gui and git-citool commands are modified to be very short shell
scripts that just execute the application bundle, starting Tk with
our own info list and icon set.

Although the Makefile change here is rather large it makes for a
much more pleasant user experience on Mac OS X as git-gui now has
its own icon on the dock, in the standard tk_messageBox dialogs,
and the application name now says "Git Gui" instead of "Wish" in
locations such as the menu bar and the alt-tab window.

f522c9b5ed git-gui: Refactor into multiple files to save my sanity
I'm finding it difficult to work with a 6,000+ line Tcl script
and not go insane while looking for a particular block of code.
Since most of the program is organized into different units of
functionality and not all users will need all units immediately
on startup we can improve things by splitting procs out into
multiple files and let auto_load handle things for us.

This should help not only to better organize the source, but
it may also improve startup times for some users as the Tcl
parser does not need to read as much script before it can show
the UI.  In many cases the user can avoid reading at least half
of git-gui now.

Unfortunately we now need a library directory in our runtime
location.  This is currently assumed to be $(sharedir)/git-gui/lib
and its expected that the Makefile invoker will setup some sort of
reasonable sharedir value for us, or let us assume its going to be
$(gitexecdir)/../share.

We now also require a tclsh (in TCL_PATH) to just run the Makefile,
as we use tclsh to generate the tclIndex for our lib directory.  I'm
hoping this is not an unncessary burden on end-users who are building
from source.

I haven't really made any functionality changes here, this is just a
huge migration of code from one file to many smaller files.  All of
the new changes are to setup the library path and install the library
files.

c6a5e40303 git-gui: Track our own embedded values and rebuild when they change
Like core-Git we now track the values that we embed into our shell
script wrapper, and we "recompile" that wrapper if they are changed.
This concept was lifted from git.git's Makefile, where a similar
thing was done by Eygene Ryabinkin.  Too bad it wasn't just done
here in git-gui from the beginning, as the git.git Makefile support
for GIT-GUI-VARS was really just because git-gui doesn't do it on
its own.

bb616ddd15 git-gui: Revert "git-gui: Display all authors of git-gui."
This reverts commit 871f4c97ad7e021d1a0a98c80c5da77fcf70e4af.

Too many users have complained about the credits generator in
git-gui, so I'm backing the entire thing out.  This revert will
finish that series.

871f4c97ad git-gui: Display all authors of git-gui.
Now that git-gui has been released to the public as part of Git 1.5.0
I am starting to see some work from other people beyond myself and
Paul.  Consequently the copyright for git-gui is not strictly the
two of us anymore, and these others deserve to have some credit
given to them.

f1cee4e6d1 git-gui: Ensure version number is always current.
I'm stealing the exact logic used by core Git within its own Makefile to
setup the version number within scripts and executables.  This way we
can be sure that the version number is always updated after a commit,
and that the version number also reflects when it is coming from a dirty
working directory (and is thus pretty worthless).

I've cleaned up some of the version display code in the about dialog too.
There were simply too many blank lines in the bottom section where we
showed the version data.

41bdcda373 git-gui: Modified makefile to embed version into git-gui script.
We want to embed the version of git-gui directly into the script file,
so that we can display it properly in the about dialog.  Consequently
I've refactored the Makefile process to act like the one in core git.git
with regards to shell scripts, allowing git-gui to be constructed by a
sed replacement performed on git-gui.sh.
