+ * builtin API
+ * ===========
+ *
+ * Adding a new built-in
+ * ---------------------
+ *
+ * There are 4 things to do to add a built-in command implementation to
+ * Git:
+ *
+ * . Define the implementation of the built-in command `foo` with
+ *   signature:
+ *
+ *	int cmd_foo(int argc, const char **argv, const char *prefix);
+ *
+ * . Add the external declaration for the function to `builtin.h`.
+ *
+ * . Add the command to the `commands[]` table defined in `git.c`.
+ *   The entry should look like:
+ *
+ *	{ "foo", cmd_foo, <options> },
+ *
+ * where options is the bitwise-or of:
+ *
+ * `RUN_SETUP`:
+ *	If there is not a Git directory to work on, abort.  If there
+ *	is a work tree, chdir to the top of it if the command was
+ *	invoked in a subdirectory.  If there is no work tree, no
+ *	chdir() is done.
+ *
+ * `RUN_SETUP_GENTLY`:
+ *	If there is a Git directory, chdir as per RUN_SETUP, otherwise,
+ *	don't chdir anywhere.
+ *
+ * `USE_PAGER`:
+ *
+ *	If the standard output is connected to a tty, spawn a pager and
+ *	feed our output to it.
+ *
+ * `NEED_WORK_TREE`:
+ *
+ *	Make sure there is a work tree, i.e. the command cannot act
+ *	on bare repositories.
+ *	This only makes sense when `RUN_SETUP` is also set.
+ *
+ * `SUPPORT_SUPER_PREFIX`:
+ *
+ *	The built-in supports `--super-prefix`.
+ *
+ * `DELAY_PAGER_CONFIG`:
+ *
+ *	If RUN_SETUP or RUN_SETUP_GENTLY is set, git.c normally handles
+ *	the `pager.<cmd>`-configuration. If this flag is used, git.c
+ *	will skip that step, instead allowing the built-in to make a
+ *	more informed decision, e.g., by ignoring `pager.<cmd>` for
+ *	certain subcommands.
+ *
+ * . Add `builtin/foo.o` to `BUILTIN_OBJS` in `Makefile`.
+ *
+ * Additionally, if `foo` is a new command, there are 4 more things to do:
+ *
+ * . Add tests to `t/` directory.
+ *
+ * . Write documentation in `Documentation/git-foo.txt`.
+ *
+ * . Add an entry for `git-foo` to `command-list.txt`.
+ *
+ * . Add an entry for `/git-foo` to `.gitignore`.
+ *
+ *
+ * How a built-in is called
+ * ------------------------
+ *
+ * The implementation `cmd_foo()` takes three parameters, `argc`, `argv,
+ * and `prefix`.  The first two are similar to what `main()` of a
+ * standalone command would be called with.
+ *
+ * When `RUN_SETUP` is specified in the `commands[]` table, and when you
+ * were started from a subdirectory of the work tree, `cmd_foo()` is called
+ * after chdir(2) to the top of the work tree, and `prefix` gets the path
+ * to the subdirectory the command started from.  This allows you to
+ * convert a user-supplied pathname (typically relative to that directory)
+ * to a pathname relative to the top of the work tree.
+ *
+ * The return value from `cmd_foo()` becomes the exit status of the
+ * command.

+/**
+ * If a built-in has DELAY_PAGER_CONFIG set, the built-in should call this early
+ * when it wishes to respect the `pager.foo`-config. The `cmd` is the name of
+ * the built-in, e.g., "foo". If a paging-choice has already been setup, this
+ * does nothing. The default in `def` should be 0 for "pager off", 1 for "pager
+ * on" or -1 for "punt".
+ *
+ * You should most likely use a default of 0 or 1. "Punt" (-1) could be useful
+ * to be able to fall back to some historical compatibility name.
