Subject: git-gui PATCH Keep repo_config(gui.recentrepos) and .gitconfig in synch
Message-ID: <564f37c41001231121o10f88b6cwc35a126a0e79d3fc@mail.gmail.com>

This patch addresses two issues:

1. When the number of recent repo's gets to ten there can be a
situation where an item is removed from the .gitconfig file via
a call to git config --unset, but the internal representation of
that file (repo_config(gui.recentrepo)) is not updated. Then a
subsequent attempt to remove an item from the list fails because
git-gui attempts to call --unset on a value that has already been
removed. This leads to duplicates in the .gitconfig file, which
then also cause errors if the git-gui tries to --unset them (rather
than using --unset-all. --unset-all is not used because it is not
expected that duplicates should ever be allowed to exist.)

For complete step-by-step instructions on how to cause these situations
in git-gui see my comment on the msysgit project at
http://code.google.com/p/msysgit/issues/detail?id=362&colspec=ID%20Type%20Status%20Priority%20Component%20Owner%20Summary#c9

2. When loading the list of recent repositories (proc _get_recentrepos)
if a repo in the list is not considered a valid git reposoitory
then we should go ahead and remove it so it doesn't take up a slot
in the list (since we limit to 10 items). This will prevent a bunch of
invalid entries in the list (which are not shown) from making valid
entries dissapear off the list even when there are less than ten valid
entries.
