-
-The most common situation is that you've rebased a branch (or you have
-pulled from somebody else who rebased a branch, like the "pu" branch in
-the git.git archive itself).
-
-What happens is that the old head of the original branch still exists, as
-does obviously everything it pointed to. The branch pointer itself just
-doesn't, since you replaced it with another one.
-
-However, there are certainly other situations too that cause dangling
-objects. For example, the "dangling blob" situation you have tends to be
-because you did a "git add" of a file, but then, before you actually
-committed it and made it part of the bigger picture, you changed something
-else in that file and committed that *updated* thing - the old state that
-you added originally ends up not being pointed to by any commit/tree, so
-it's now a dangling blob object.
-
-Similarly, when the "recursive" merge strategy runs, and finds that there
-are criss-cross merges and thus more than one merge base (which is fairly
-unusual, but it does happen), it will generate one temporary midway tree
-(or possibly even more, if you had lots of criss-crossing merges and
-more than two merge bases) as a temporary internal merge base, and again,
-those are real objects, but the end result will not end up pointing to
-them, so they end up "dangling" in your repository.
-
-Generally, dangling objects aren't anything to worry about. They can even
-be very useful: if you screw something up, the dangling objects can be how
-you recover your old tree (say, you did a rebase, and realized that you
-really didn't want to - you can look at what dangling objects you have,
-and decide to reset your head to some old dangling state).
-
-For commits, the most useful thing to do with dangling objects tends to be
-to do a simple
-
- gitk <dangling-commit-sha-goes-here> --not --all
-
-which means exactly what it sounds like: it says that you want to see the
-commit history that is described by the dangling commit(s), but you do NOT
-want to see the history that is described by all your branches and tags
-(which are the things you normally reach). That basically shows you in a
-nice way what the danglign commit was (and notice that it might not be
-just one commit: we only report the "tip of the line" as being dangling,
-but there might be a whole deep and complex commit history that has gotten
-dropped - rebasing will do that).
-
-For blobs and trees, you can't do the same, but you can examine them. You
-can just do
-
- git show <dangling-blob/tree-sha-goes-here>
-
-to show what the contents of the blob were (or, for a tree, basically what
-the "ls" for that directory was), and that may give you some idea of what
-the operation was that left that dangling object.
-
-Usually, dangling blobs and trees aren't very interesting. They're almost
-always the result of either being a half-way mergebase (the blob will
-often even have the conflict markers from a merge in it, if you have had
-conflicting merges that you fixed up by hand), or simply because you
-interrupted a "git fetch" with ^C or something like that, leaving _some_
-of the new objects in the object database, but just dangling and useless.
-
-Anyway, once you are sure that you're not interested in any dangling
-state, you can just prune all unreachable objects:
-
- git prune
-
-and they'll be gone. But you should only run "git prune" on a quiescent
-repository - it's kind of like doing a filesystem fsck recovery: you don't
-want to do that while the filesystem is mounted.
-
-(The same is true of "git-fsck-objects" itself, btw - but since
-git-fsck-objects never actually *changes* the repository, it just reports
-on what it found, git-fsck-objects itself is never "dangerous" to run.
-Running it while somebody is actually changing the repository can cause
-confusing and scary messages, but it won't actually do anything bad. In
-contrast, running "git prune" while somebody is actively changing the
-repository is a *BAD* idea).

-Subject: Real-life kernel debugging scenario
-Abstract: Short-n-sweet, Linus tells us how to leverage `git-bisect` to perform
- bug isolation on a repository where "good" and "bad" revisions are known
- in order to identify a suspect commit.
-
-
-How To Use git-bisect To Isolate a Bogus Commit
-===============================================
-
-The way to use "git bisect" couldn't be easier.
-
-Figure out what the oldest bad state you know about is (that's usually the
-head of "master", since that's what you just tried to boot and failed at).
-Also, figure out the most recent known-good commit (usually the _previous_
-kernel you ran: and if you've only done a single "pull" in between, it
-will be ORIG_HEAD).
-
-Then do
-
- git bisect start
- git bisect bad master <- mark "master" as the bad state
- git bisect good ORIG_HEAD <- mark ORIG_HEAD as good (or
- whatever other known-good
- thing you booted last)
-
-and at this point "git bisect" will churn for a while, and tell you what
-the mid-point between those two commits are, and check that state out as
-the head of the new "bisect" branch.
-
-Compile and reboot.
-
-If it's good, just do
-
- git bisect good <- mark current head as good
-
-otherwise, reboot into a good kernel instead, and do (surprise surprise,
-git really is very intuitive):
-
- git bisect bad <- mark current head as bad
-
-and whatever you do, git will select a new half-way point. Do this for a
-while, until git tells you exactly which commit was the first bad commit.
-That's your culprit.
-
-It really works wonderfully well, except for the case where there was
-_another_ commit that broke something in between, like introduced some
-stupid compile error. In that case you should not mark that commit good or
-bad: you should try to find another commit close-by, and do a "git reset
---hard <newcommit>" to try out _that_ commit instead, and then test that
-instead (and mark it good or bad).
-
-You can do "git bisect visualize" while you do all this to see what's
-going on by starting up gitk on the bisection range.
-
-Finally, once you've figured out exactly which commit was bad, you can
-then go back to the master branch, and try reverting just that commit:
-
- git checkout master
- git revert <bad-commit-id>
-
-to verify that the top-of-kernel works with that single commit reverted.

-

-GIT as a Linux subsystem maintainer.
-

-
-Last updated w.r.t. GIT 1.1
-
-Linux subsystem maintenance using GIT
--------------------------------------
-
-My requirements here are to be able to create two public trees:
-
-1) A "test" tree into which patches are initially placed so that they
-can get some exposure when integrated with other ongoing development.
-This tree is available to Andrew for pulling into -mm whenever he wants.
-
-2) A "release" tree into which tested patches are moved for final
-sanity checking, and as a vehicle to send them upstream to Linus
-(by sending him a "please pull" request.)
-
-Note that the period of time that each patch spends in the "test" tree
-is dependent on the complexity of the change. Since GIT does not support
-cherry picking, it is not practical to simply apply all patches to the
-test tree and then pull to the release tree as that would leave trivial
-patches blocked in the test tree waiting for complex changes to accumulate
-enough test time to graduate.
-
-Back in the BitKeeper days I achieved this by creating small forests of
-temporary trees, one tree for each logical grouping of patches, and then
-pulling changes from these trees first to the test tree, and then to the
-release tree. At first I replicated this in GIT, but then I realised
-that I could so this far more efficiently using branches inside a single
-GIT repository.
-
-So here is the step-by-step guide how this all works for me.
-
-First create your work tree by cloning Linus's public tree:
-
- $ git clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git work
-
-Change directory into the cloned tree you just created
-
- $ cd work
-
-Set up a remotes file so that you can fetch the latest from Linus' master
-branch into a local branch named "linus":
-
- $ cat > .git/remotes/linus
- URL: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git
- Pull: master:linus
- ^D
-
-and create the linus branch:
-
- $ git branch linus
-
-The "linus" branch will be used to track the upstream kernel. To update it,
-you simply run:
-
- $ git fetch linus
-
-you can do this frequently (and it should be safe to do so with pending
-work in your tree, but perhaps not if you are in mid-merge).
-
-If you need to keep track of other public trees, you can add remote branches
-for them too:
-
- $ git branch another
- $ cat > .git/remotes/another
- URL: ... insert URL here ...
- Pull: name-of-branch-in-this-remote-tree:another
- ^D
-
-and run:
-
- $ git fetch another
-
-Now create the branches in which you are going to work, these start
-out at the current tip of the linus branch.
-
- $ git branch test linus
- $ git branch release linus
-
-These can be easily kept up to date by merging from the "linus" branch:
-
- $ git checkout test && git merge "Auto-update from upstream" test linus
- $ git checkout release && git merge "Auto-update from upstream" release linus
-
-Important note! If you have any local changes in these branches, then
-this merge will create a commit object in the history (with no local
-changes git will simply do a "Fast forward" merge). Many people dislike
-the "noise" that this creates in the Linux history, so you should avoid
-doing this capriciously in the "release" branch, as these noisy commits
-will become part of the permanent history when you ask Linus to pull
-from the release branch.
-
-Set up so that you can push upstream to your public tree (you need to
-log-in to the remote system and create an empty tree there before the
-first push).
-
- $ cat > .git/remotes/mytree
- URL: master.kernel.org:/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/aegl/linux-2.6.git
- Push: release
- Push: test
- ^D
-
-and the push both the test and release trees using:
-
- $ git push mytree
-
-or push just one of the test and release branches using:
-
- $ git push mytree test
-or
- $ git push mytree release
-
-Now to apply some patches from the community. Think of a short
-snappy name for a branch to hold this patch (or related group of
-patches), and create a new branch from the current tip of the
-linus branch:
-
- $ git checkout -b speed-up-spinlocks linus
-
-Now you apply the patch(es), run some tests, and commit the change(s). If
-the patch is a multi-part series, then you should apply each as a separate
-commit to this branch.
-
- $ ... patch ... test ... commit [ ... patch ... test ... commit ]*
-
-When you are happy with the state of this change, you can pull it into the
-"test" branch in preparation to make it public:
-
- $ git checkout test && git merge "Pull speed-up-spinlock changes" test speed-up-spinlocks
-
-It is unlikely that you would have any conflicts here ... but you might if you
-spent a while on this step and had also pulled new versions from upstream.
-
-Some time later when enough time has passed and testing done, you can pull the
-same branch into the "release" tree ready to go upstream. This is where you
-see the value of keeping each patch (or patch series) in its own branch. It
-means that the patches can be moved into the "release" tree in any order.
-
- $ git checkout release && git merge "Pull speed-up-spinlock changes" release speed-up-spinlocks
-
-After a while, you will have a number of branches, and despite the
-well chosen names you picked for each of them, you may forget what
-they are for, or what status they are in. To get a reminder of what
-changes are in a specific branch, use:
-
- $ git-whatchanged branchname ^linus | git-shortlog
-
-To see whether it has already been merged into the test or release branches
-use:
-
- $ git-rev-list branchname ^test
-or
- $ git-rev-list branchname ^release
-
-[If this branch has not yet been merged you will see a set of SHA1 values
-for the commits, if it has been merged, then there will be no output]
-
-Once a patch completes the great cycle (moving from test to release, then
-pulled by Linus, and finally coming back into your local "linus" branch)
-the branch for this change is no longer needed. You detect this when the
-output from:

Git tracks content not files
----------------------------
-With git you have to explicitly "add" all the changed _content_ you
-want to commit together. This can be done in a few different ways:
-
-1) By using 'git add <file_spec>...'
-
-This can be performed multiple times before a commit. Note that this
-is not only for adding new files. Even modified files must be
-added to the set of changes about to be committed. The "git status"
-command gives you a summary of what is included so far for the
-next commit. When done you should use the 'git commit' command to
-make it real.
-
-Note: don't forget to 'add' a file again if you modified it after the
-first 'add' and before 'commit'. Otherwise only the previous added
-state of that file will be committed. This is because git tracks
-content, so what you're really 'adding' to the commit is the *content*
-of the file in the state it is in when you 'add' it.
-
-2) By using 'git commit -a' directly
-
-This is a quick way to automatically 'add' the content from all files
-that were modified since the previous commit, and perform the actual
-commit without having to separately 'add' them beforehand. This will
-not add content from new files i.e. files that were never added before.
-Those files still have to be added explicitly before performing a
-commit.
-
-But here's a twist. If you do 'git commit <file1> <file2> ...' then only
-the changes belonging to those explicitly specified files will be
-committed, entirely bypassing the current "added" changes. Those "added"
-changes will still remain available for a subsequent commit though.
-
-However, for normal usage you only have to remember 'git add' + 'git commit'
-and/or 'git commit -a'.
-
+Many revision control systems provide an "add" command that tells the
+system to start tracking changes to a new file. Git's "add" command
+does something simpler and more powerful: `git add` is used both for new
+and newly modified files, and in both cases it takes a snapshot of the
+given files and stages that content in the index, ready for inclusion in
+the next commit.

+file such that it contained the given content either before or after the
+commit. You can find out with this:
+
+-------------------------------------------------
+$ git log --raw -r --abbrev=40 --pretty=oneline -- filename |
+ grep -B 1 `git hash-object filename`

+[[ignoring-files]]
+Ignoring files
+--------------
+
+A project will often generate files that you do 'not' want to track with git.
+This typically includes files generated by a build process or temporary
+backup files made by your editor. Of course, 'not' tracking files with git
+is just a matter of 'not' calling "`git add`" on them. But it quickly becomes
+annoying to have these untracked files lying around; e.g. they make
+"`git add .`" and "`git commit -a`" practically useless, and they keep
+showing up in the output of "`git status`", etc.
+
+Git therefore provides "exclude patterns" for telling git which files to
+actively ignore. Exclude patterns are thoroughly explained in the
+"Exclude Patterns" section of the gitlink:git-ls-files[1] manual page,
+but the heart of the concept is simply a list of files which git should
+ignore. Entries in the list may contain globs to specify multiple files,
+or may be prefixed by "`!`" to explicitly include (un-ignore) a previously
+excluded (ignored) file (i.e. later exclude patterns override earlier ones).
+The following example should illustrate such patterns:
+
+-------------------------------------------------
+# Lines starting with '#' are considered comments.
+# Ignore foo.txt.
+foo.txt
+# Ignore (generated) html files,
+*.html
+# except foo.html which is maintained by hand.
+!foo.html
+# Ignore objects and archives.
+*.[oa]
+-------------------------------------------------
+
+The next question is where to put these exclude patterns so that git can
+find them. Git looks for exclude patterns in the following files:
+
+`.gitignore` files in your working tree:::
+ You may store multiple `.gitignore` files at various locations in your
+ working tree. Each `.gitignore` file is applied to the directory where
+ it's located, including its subdirectories. Furthermore, the
+ `.gitignore` files can be tracked like any other files in your working
+ tree; just do a "`git add .gitignore`" and commit. `.gitignore` is
+ therefore the right place to put exclude patterns that are meant to
+ be shared between all project participants, such as build output files
+ (e.g. `\*.o`), etc.
+`.git/info/exclude` in your repo:::
+ Exclude patterns in this file are applied to the working tree as a
+ whole. Since the file is not located in your working tree, it does
+ not follow push/pull/clone like `.gitignore` can do. This is therefore
+ the place to put exclude patterns that are local to your copy of the
+ repo (i.e. 'not' shared between project participants), such as
+ temporary backup files made by your editor (e.g. `\*~`), etc.
+The file specified by the `core.excludesfile` config directive:::
+ By setting the `core.excludesfile` config directive you can tell git
+ where to find more exclude patterns (see gitlink:git-config[1] for
+ more information on configuration options). This config directive
+ can be set in the per-repo `.git/config` file, in which case the
+ exclude patterns will apply to that repo only. Alternatively, you
+ can set the directive in the global `~/.gitconfig` file to apply
+ the exclude pattern to all your git repos. As with the above
+ `.git/info/exclude` (and, indeed, with git config directives in
+ general), this directive does not follow push/pull/clone, but remain
+ local to your repo(s).
+
+[NOTE]
+In addition to the above alternatives, there are git commands that can take
+exclude patterns directly on the command line. See gitlink:git-ls-files[1]
+for an example of this.

+[[maintaining-topic-branches]]
+Maintaining topic branches for a Linux subsystem maintainer
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+This describes how Tony Luck uses git in his role as maintainer of the
+IA64 architecture for the Linux kernel.
+
+He uses two public branches:
+
+ - A "test" tree into which patches are initially placed so that they
+ can get some exposure when integrated with other ongoing development.
+ This tree is available to Andrew for pulling into -mm whenever he
+ wants.
+
+ - A "release" tree into which tested patches are moved for final sanity
+ checking, and as a vehicle to send them upstream to Linus (by sending
+ him a "please pull" request.)
+
+He also uses a set of temporary branches ("topic branches"), each
+containing a logical grouping of patches.
+
+To set this up, first create your work tree by cloning Linus's public
+tree:
+
+-------------------------------------------------
+$ git clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git work
+$ cd work
+-------------------------------------------------
+
+Linus's tree will be stored in the remote branch named origin/master,
+and can be updated using gitlink:git-fetch[1]; you can track other
+public trees using gitlink:git-remote[1] to set up a "remote" and
+git-fetch[1] to keep them up-to-date; see <<repositories-and-branches>>.
+
+Now create the branches in which you are going to work; these start out
+at the current tip of origin/master branch, and should be set up (using
+the --track option to gitlink:git-branch[1]) to merge changes in from
+Linus by default.
+
+-------------------------------------------------
+$ git branch --track test origin/master
+$ git branch --track release origin/master
+-------------------------------------------------
+
+These can be easily kept up to date using gitlink:git-pull[1]
+
+-------------------------------------------------
+$ git checkout test && git pull
+$ git checkout release && git pull
+-------------------------------------------------
+
+Important note! If you have any local changes in these branches, then
+this merge will create a commit object in the history (with no local
+changes git will simply do a "Fast forward" merge). Many people dislike
+the "noise" that this creates in the Linux history, so you should avoid
+doing this capriciously in the "release" branch, as these noisy commits
+will become part of the permanent history when you ask Linus to pull
+from the release branch.
+
+A few configuration variables (see gitlink:git-config[1]) can
+make it easy to push both branches to your public tree. (See
+<<setting-up-a-public-repository>>.)
+
+-------------------------------------------------
+$ cat >> .git/config <<EOF
+[remote "mytree"]
+ url = master.kernel.org:/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/aegl/linux-2.6.git
+ push = release
+ push = test
+EOF
+-------------------------------------------------
+
+Then you can push both the test and release trees using
+gitlink:git-push[1]:
+
+-------------------------------------------------
+$ git push mytree
+-------------------------------------------------
+
+or push just one of the test and release branches using:
+
+-------------------------------------------------
+$ git push mytree test
+-------------------------------------------------
+
+or
+
+-------------------------------------------------
+$ git push mytree release
+-------------------------------------------------
+
+Now to apply some patches from the community. Think of a short
+snappy name for a branch to hold this patch (or related group of
+patches), and create a new branch from the current tip of Linus's
+branch:
+
+-------------------------------------------------
+$ git checkout -b speed-up-spinlocks origin
+-------------------------------------------------
+
+Now you apply the patch(es), run some tests, and commit the change(s). If
+the patch is a multi-part series, then you should apply each as a separate
+commit to this branch.
+
+-------------------------------------------------
+$ ... patch ... test ... commit [ ... patch ... test ... commit ]*
+-------------------------------------------------
+
+When you are happy with the state of this change, you can pull it into the
+"test" branch in preparation to make it public:
+
+-------------------------------------------------
+$ git checkout test && git pull . speed-up-spinlocks
+-------------------------------------------------
+
+It is unlikely that you would have any conflicts here ... but you might if you
+spent a while on this step and had also pulled new versions from upstream.
+
+Some time later when enough time has passed and testing done, you can pull the
+same branch into the "release" tree ready to go upstream. This is where you
+see the value of keeping each patch (or patch series) in its own branch. It
+means that the patches can be moved into the "release" tree in any order.
+
+-------------------------------------------------
+$ git checkout release && git pull . speed-up-spinlocks
+-------------------------------------------------
+
+After a while, you will have a number of branches, and despite the
+well chosen names you picked for each of them, you may forget what
+they are for, or what status they are in. To get a reminder of what
+changes are in a specific branch, use:
+
+-------------------------------------------------
+$ git log linux..branchname | git-shortlog
+-------------------------------------------------
+
+To see whether it has already been merged into the test or release branches
+use:
+
+-------------------------------------------------
+$ git log test..branchname
+-------------------------------------------------
+
+or
+
+-------------------------------------------------
+$ git log release..branchname
+-------------------------------------------------
+
+(If this branch has not yet been merged you will see some log entries.
+If it has been merged, then there will be no output.)
+
+Once a patch completes the great cycle (moving from test to release,
+then pulled by Linus, and finally coming back into your local
+"origin/master" branch) the branch for this change is no longer needed.
+You detect this when the output from:
+
+-------------------------------------------------
+$ git log origin..branchname
+-------------------------------------------------
+
+is empty. At this point the branch can be deleted:
+
+-------------------------------------------------
+$ git branch -d branchname
+-------------------------------------------------
+
+Some changes are so trivial that it is not necessary to create a separate
+branch and then merge into each of the test and release branches. For
+these changes, just apply directly to the "release" branch, and then
+merge that into the "test" branch.
+
+To create diffstat and shortlog summaries of changes to include in a "please
+pull" request to Linus you can use:
+
+-------------------------------------------------
+$ git diff --stat origin..release
+-------------------------------------------------
+
+and

+A birds-eye view of Git's source code
+-------------------------------------
+
+It is not always easy for new developers to find their way through Git's
+source code. This section gives you a little guidance to show where to
+start.
+
+A good place to start is with the contents of the initial commit, with:
+
+----------------------------------------------------
+$ git checkout e83c5163
+----------------------------------------------------
+
+The initial revision lays the foundation for almost everything git has
+today, but is small enough to read in one sitting.
+
+Note that terminology has changed since that revision. For example, the
+README in that revision uses the word "changeset" to describe what we
+now call a <<def_commit_object,commit>>.
+
+Also, we do not call it "cache" any more, but "index", however, the
+file is still called `cache.h`. Remark: Not much reason to change it now,
+especially since there is no good single name for it anyway, because it is
+basically _the_ header file which is included by _all_ of Git's C sources.
+
+If you grasp the ideas in that initial commit, you should check out a
+more recent version and skim `cache.h`, `object.h` and `commit.h`.
+
+In the early days, Git (in the tradition of UNIX) was a bunch of programs
+which were extremely simple, and which you used in scripts, piping the
+output of one into another. This turned out to be good for initial
+development, since it was easier to test new things. However, recently
+many of these parts have become builtins, and some of the core has been
+"libified", i.e. put into libgit.a for performance, portability reasons,
+and to avoid code duplication.
+
+By now, you know what the index is (and find the corresponding data
+structures in `cache.h`), and that there are just a couple of object types
+(blobs, trees, commits and tags) which inherit their common structure from
+`struct object`, which is their first member (and thus, you can cast e.g.
+`(struct object *)commit` to achieve the _same_ as `&commit->object`, i.e.
+get at the object name and flags).
+
+Now is a good point to take a break to let this information sink in.
+
+Next step: get familiar with the object naming. Read <<naming-commits>>.
+There are quite a few ways to name an object (and not only revisions!).
+All of these are handled in `sha1_name.c`. Just have a quick look at
+the function `get_sha1()`. A lot of the special handling is done by
+functions like `get_sha1_basic()` or the likes.
+
+This is just to get you into the groove for the most libified part of Git:
+the revision walker.
+
+Basically, the initial version of `git log` was a shell script:
+
+----------------------------------------------------------------
+$ git-rev-list --pretty $(git-rev-parse --default HEAD "$@") | \
+ LESS=-S ${PAGER:-less}
+----------------------------------------------------------------
+
+What does this mean?
+
+`git-rev-list` is the original version of the revision walker, which
+_always_ printed a list of revisions to stdout. It is still functional,
+and needs to, since most new Git programs start out as scripts using
+`git-rev-list`.
+
+`git-rev-parse` is not as important any more; it was only used to filter out
+options that were relevant for the different plumbing commands that were
+called by the script.
+
+Most of what `git-rev-list` did is contained in `revision.c` and
+`revision.h`. It wraps the options in a struct named `rev_info`, which
+controls how and what revisions are walked, and more.
+
+The original job of `git-rev-parse` is now taken by the function
+`setup_revisions()`, which parses the revisions and the common command line
+options for the revision walker. This information is stored in the struct
+`rev_info` for later consumption. You can do your own command line option
+parsing after calling `setup_revisions()`. After that, you have to call
+`prepare_revision_walk()` for initialization, and then you can get the
+commits one by one with the function `get_revision()`.
+
+If you are interested in more details of the revision walking process,
+just have a look at the first implementation of `cmd_log()`; call
+`git-show v1.3.0~155^2~4` and scroll down to that function (note that you
+no longer need to call `setup_pager()` directly).
+
+Nowadays, `git log` is a builtin, which means that it is _contained_ in the
+command `git`. The source side of a builtin is
+
+- a function called `cmd_<bla>`, typically defined in `builtin-<bla>.c`,
+ and declared in `builtin.h`,
+
+- an entry in the `commands[]` array in `git.c`, and
+
+- an entry in `BUILTIN_OBJECTS` in the `Makefile`.
+
+Sometimes, more than one builtin is contained in one source file. For
+example, `cmd_whatchanged()` and `cmd_log()` both reside in `builtin-log.c`,
+since they share quite a bit of code. In that case, the commands which are
+_not_ named like the `.c` file in which they live have to be listed in
+`BUILT_INS` in the `Makefile`.
+
+`git log` looks more complicated in C than it does in the original script,
+but that allows for a much greater flexibility and performance.
+
+Here again it is a good point to take a pause.
+
+Lesson three is: study the code. Really, it is the best way to learn about
+the organization of Git (after you know the basic concepts).
+
+So, think about something which you are interested in, say, "how can I
+access a blob just knowing the object name of it?". The first step is to
+find a Git command with which you can do it. In this example, it is either
+`git show` or `git cat-file`.
+
+For the sake of clarity, let's stay with `git cat-file`, because it
+
+- is plumbing, and
+
+- was around even in the initial commit (it literally went only through
+ some 20 revisions as `cat-file.c`, was renamed to `builtin-cat-file.c`
+ when made a builtin, and then saw less than 10 versions).
+
+So, look into `builtin-cat-file.c`, search for `cmd_cat_file()` and look what
+it does.
+
+------------------------------------------------------------------
+ git_config(git_default_config);
+ if (argc != 3)
+ usage("git-cat-file [-t|-s|-e|-p|<type>] <sha1>");
+ if (get_sha1(argv[2], sha1))
+ die("Not a valid object name %s", argv[2]);
+------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+Let's skip over the obvious details; the only really interesting part
+here is the call to `get_sha1()`. It tries to interpret `argv[2]` as an
+object name, and if it refers to an object which is present in the current
+repository, it writes the resulting SHA-1 into the variable `sha1`.
+
+Two things are interesting here:
+
+- `get_sha1()` returns 0 on _success_. This might surprise some new
+ Git hackers, but there is a long tradition in UNIX to return different
+ negative numbers in case of different errors -- and 0 on success.
+
+- the variable `sha1` in the function signature of `get_sha1()` is `unsigned
+ char \*`, but is actually expected to be a pointer to `unsigned
+ char[20]`. This variable will contain the 160-bit SHA-1 of the given
+ commit. Note that whenever a SHA-1 is passed as `unsigned char \*`, it
+ is the binary representation, as opposed to the ASCII representation in
+ hex characters, which is passed as `char *`.
+
+You will see both of these things throughout the code.
+
+Now, for the meat:
+
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
+ case 0:
+ buf = read_object_with_reference(sha1, argv[1], &size, NULL);
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+This is how you read a blob (actually, not only a blob, but any type of
+object). To know how the function `read_object_with_reference()` actually
+works, find the source code for it (something like `git grep
+read_object_with | grep ":[a-z]"` in the git repository), and read
+the source.
+
+To find out how the result can be used, just read on in `cmd_cat_file()`:
+
+-----------------------------------
+ write_or_die(1, buf, size);
+-----------------------------------
+
+Sometimes, you do not know where to look for a feature. In many such cases,
+it helps to search through the output of `git log`, and then `git show` the
+corresponding commit.
+
+Example: If you know that there was some test case for `git bundle`, but
+do not remember where it was (yes, you _could_ `git grep bundle t/`, but that
+does not illustrate the point!):
+
+------------------------
+$ git log --no-merges t/
+------------------------
+
+In the pager (`less`), just search for "bundle", go a few lines back,
+and see that it is in commit 18449ab0... Now just copy this object name,
+and paste it into the command line
+
+-------------------
+$ git show 18449ab0
+-------------------
+
+Voila.
+
+Another example: Find out what to do in order to make some script a
+builtin:
+
+-------------------------------------------------
+$ git log --no-merges --diff-filter=A builtin-*.c
+-------------------------------------------------
+
+You see, Git is actually the best tool to find out about the source of Git
+itself!

+Appendix A: Git Quick Start
+===========================
+
+This is a quick summary of the major commands; the following chapters
+will explain how these work in more detail.
+
+[[quick-creating-a-new-repository]]
+Creating a new repository
+-------------------------
+
+From a tarball:
+
+-----------------------------------------------
+$ tar xzf project.tar.gz
+$ cd project
+$ git init
+Initialized empty Git repository in .git/
+$ git add .
+$ git commit
+-----------------------------------------------
+
+From a remote repository:
+
+-----------------------------------------------
+$ git clone git://example.com/pub/project.git
+$ cd project
+-----------------------------------------------
+
+[[managing-branches]]
+Managing branches
+-----------------
+
+-----------------------------------------------
+$ git branch # list all local branches in this repo
+$ git checkout test # switch working directory to branch "test"
+$ git branch new # create branch "new" starting at current HEAD
+$ git branch -d new # delete branch "new"
+-----------------------------------------------
+
+Instead of basing new branch on current HEAD (the default), use:
+
+-----------------------------------------------
+$ git branch new test # branch named "test"
+$ git branch new v2.6.15 # tag named v2.6.15
+$ git branch new HEAD^ # commit before the most recent
+$ git branch new HEAD^^ # commit before that
+$ git branch new test~10 # ten commits before tip of branch "test"
+-----------------------------------------------
+
+Create and switch to a new branch at the same time:
+
+-----------------------------------------------
+$ git checkout -b new v2.6.15
+-----------------------------------------------
+
+Update and examine branches from the repository you cloned from:
+
+-----------------------------------------------
+$ git fetch # update
+$ git branch -r # list
+ origin/master
+ origin/next
+ ...
+$ git checkout -b masterwork origin/master
+-----------------------------------------------
+
+Fetch a branch from a different repository, and give it a new
+name in your repository:
+
+-----------------------------------------------
+$ git fetch git://example.com/project.git theirbranch:mybranch
+$ git fetch git://example.com/project.git v2.6.15:mybranch
+-----------------------------------------------
+
+Keep a list of repositories you work with regularly:
+
+-----------------------------------------------
+$ git remote add example git://example.com/project.git
+$ git remote # list remote repositories
+example
+origin
+$ git remote show example # get details
+* remote example
+ URL: git://example.com/project.git
+ Tracked remote branches
+ master next ...
+$ git fetch example # update branches from example
+$ git branch -r # list all remote branches
+-----------------------------------------------
+
+
+[[exploring-history]]
+Exploring history
+-----------------
+
+-----------------------------------------------
+$ gitk # visualize and browse history
+$ git log # list all commits
+$ git log src/ # ...modifying src/
+$ git log v2.6.15..v2.6.16 # ...in v2.6.16, not in v2.6.15
+$ git log master..test # ...in branch test, not in branch master
+$ git log test..master # ...in branch master, but not in test
+$ git log test...master # ...in one branch, not in both
+$ git log -S'foo()' # ...where difference contain "foo()"
+$ git log --since="2 weeks ago"
+$ git log -p # show patches as well
+$ git show # most recent commit
+$ git diff v2.6.15..v2.6.16 # diff between two tagged versions
+$ git diff v2.6.15..HEAD # diff with current head
+$ git grep "foo()" # search working directory for "foo()"
+$ git grep v2.6.15 "foo()" # search old tree for "foo()"
+$ git show v2.6.15:a.txt # look at old version of a.txt
+-----------------------------------------------
+
+Search for regressions:
+
+-----------------------------------------------
+$ git bisect start
+$ git bisect bad # current version is bad
+$ git bisect good v2.6.13-rc2 # last known good revision
+Bisecting: 675 revisions left to test after this
+ # test here, then:
+$ git bisect good # if this revision is good, or
+$ git bisect bad # if this revision is bad.
+ # repeat until done.
+-----------------------------------------------
+
+[[making-changes]]
+Making changes
+--------------
+
+Make sure git knows who to blame:
+
+------------------------------------------------
+$ cat >>~/.gitconfig <<\EOF
+[user]
+ name = Your Name Comes Here
+ email = you@yourdomain.example.com
+EOF
+------------------------------------------------
+
+Select file contents to include in the next commit, then make the
+commit:
+
+-----------------------------------------------
+$ git add a.txt # updated file
+$ git add b.txt # new file
+$ git rm c.txt # old file
+$ git commit
+-----------------------------------------------
+
+Or, prepare and create the commit in one step:
+
+-----------------------------------------------
+$ git commit d.txt # use latest content only of d.txt
+$ git commit -a # use latest content of all tracked files
+-----------------------------------------------
+
+[[merging]]
+Merging
+-------
+
+-----------------------------------------------
+$ git merge test # merge branch "test" into the current branch
+$ git pull git://example.com/project.git master
+ # fetch and merge in remote branch
+$ git pull . test # equivalent to git merge test
+-----------------------------------------------
+
+[[sharing-your-changes]]
+Sharing your changes
+--------------------
+
+Importing or exporting patches:
+
+-----------------------------------------------
+$ git format-patch origin..HEAD # format a patch for each commit
+ # in HEAD but not in origin
+$ git am mbox # import patches from the mailbox "mbox"
+-----------------------------------------------
+
+Fetch a branch in a different git repository, then merge into the
+current branch:
+
+-----------------------------------------------
+$ git pull git://example.com/project.git theirbranch
+-----------------------------------------------
+
+Store the fetched branch into a local branch before merging into the
+current branch:
+
+-----------------------------------------------
+$ git pull git://example.com/project.git theirbranch:mybranch
+-----------------------------------------------
+
+After creating commits on a local branch, update the remote
+branch with your commits:
+
+-----------------------------------------------
+$ git push ssh://example.com/project.git mybranch:theirbranch
+-----------------------------------------------
+
+When remote and local branch are both named "test":
+
+-----------------------------------------------
+$ git push ssh://example.com/project.git test
+-----------------------------------------------
+
+Shortcut version for a frequently used remote repository:
+
+-----------------------------------------------
+$ git remote add example ssh://example.com/project.git
+$ git push example test
+-----------------------------------------------
+
+[[repository-maintenance]]
+Repository maintenance
+----------------------
+
+Check for corruption:
+
+-----------------------------------------------
+$ git fsck
+-----------------------------------------------
+
+Recompress, remove unused cruft:
+
+-----------------------------------------------
+$ git gc
+-----------------------------------------------
