2007-08-26user-manual: edit "ignoring files" for concisenessLibravatar J. Bruce Fields1-45/+18
The immediate motivation for writing this section was to explain the various places ignore patterns could be used. However, I still think .gitignore is the case most people will want to learn about first. It also makes it a bit more concrete to introduce ignore patterns in the context of .gitignore first. And the existance of gitignore(5) relieves the pressure to explain it all here. So, stick to the .gitignore example, with only a brief mention of the others, explain the syntax only by example, and leave the rest to gitignore(5). Signed-off-by: J.

2007-08-24Fix racy-git handling in git-write-tree.Libravatar Linus Torvalds2-0/+45
After git-write-tree finishes computing the tree, it updates the index so that later operations can take advantage of fully populated cache tree. However, anybody writing the index file has to mark the entries that are racily clean. For each entry whose cached lstat(3) data in the index exactly matches what is obtained from the filesystem, if the timestamp on the index file was the same or older than the modification timestamp of the file, the blob contents and the work tree file, after convert_to_git(), need to be compared, and if they are different, its index entry needs to be marked not to match the lstat(3) data from the filesystem. In order for this to work, convert_to_git() needs to work correctly, which in turn means you need to read the config file to get the settings of core.crlf and friends.

2007-08-23Install man3 manpages to $PREFIX/share/man/man3 even for site installsLibravatar martin f. krafft1-0/+1
MakeMaker supports three installation modes: perl, site, and vendor. The first and third install manpages to $PREFIX/share/man, only site installs to $PREFIX/man. For consistency with the rest of git, which does not make the distinction and writes all manpages to $PREFIX/share/man, this change makes sure that perl does too, even when it's installed in site mode.

2007-08-22Suggest unsetting core.bare when using new-workdir on a bare repositoryLibravatar Shawn O. Pearce1-0/+8
If core.bare is set to true in the config file of a repository that the user is trying to create a working directory from we should abort and suggest to the user that they remove the option first. If we leave the core.bare=true setting in the config file then working tree operations will get confused when they attempt to execute in the new workdir, as it shares its config file with the bare repository. The working tree operations will assume that the workdir is bare and abort, which is not what the user wants. If we changed core.bare to be false then working tree operations will function in the workdir but other operations may fail in the bare repository, as it claims to not be bare. If we remove core.bare from the config then Git can fallback on the legacy guessing behavior. This allows operations in the bare repository to work as though it were bare, while operations in the workdirs to act as though they are not bare. Signed-off-by: Shawn O.

2007-08-22Fix new-workdir (again) to work on bare repositoriesLibravatar Shawn O. Pearce1-3/+7
My day-job workflow involves using multiple workdirs attached to a bunch of bare repositories. Such repositories are stored inside of a directory called "foo.git", which means `git rev-parse --git-dir` will return "." and not ".git". Under such conditions new-workdir was getting confused about where the Git repository it was supplied is actually located. If we get "." for the result of --git-dir query it means we should use the user supplied path as-is, and not attempt to perform any magic on it, as the path is directly to the repository.

The git-rev-parse manpage talks about the :$n:path notation (buried deep in a list of other syntax) but it just says $n is a "stage number" -- someone who is not familiar with the internals of git's merge implementation is never going to be able to figure out that "1", "2", and "3" means.

2007-08-19Don't allow combination of -g and --reverse as it doesn't workLibravatar Shawn O. Pearce3-0/+7
The --walk-reflogs logic and the --reverse logic are completely incompatible with one another. Attempting to use both at the same time leads to confusing results that sometimes violates the user's formatting options or ignores the user's request to see the reflog message and timestamp. Unfortunately the implementation of both of these features is glued onto the side of the revision walking machinary in such a way that they are probably not going to be easy to make them compatible with each other. Rather than offering the user confusing results we are better off bailing out with an error message until such a time as the implementations can be refactored to be compatible.

2007-08-19Take binary diffs into account for "git rebase"Libravatar Linus Torvalds1-4/+0
We used to not generate a patch ID for binary diffs, but that means that some commits may be skipped as being identical to already-applied diffs when doing a rebase. So just delete the code that skips the binary diff. At the very least, we'd want the filenames to be part of the patch ID, but we might also want to generate some hash for the binary diff itself too.

When a thin pack wants to send a tree object at "sub/dir", and the commit that is common between the sender and the receiver that is used as the base object has a subproject at that path, we should not try to use the data at "sub/dir" of the base tree as a tree object. It is not a tree to begin with, and more importantly, the commit object there does not have to even exist. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2007-08-19Correct documentation of 'reflog show' to explain it shows HEADLibravatar Shawn O. Pearce1-1/+2
By default 'git reflog show' will show the reflog of 'HEAD' and not the reflog of the current branch. This is most likely due to the work done a while ago as part of the detached HEAD series to allow HEAD to have its own reflog independent of each branch's reflog. Since 'git reflog show' is really just an obscure alias for 'git log -g --abbrev-commit --pretty=oneline' it should behave the same way and its documentation should match. Signed-off-by: Shawn O.

2007-08-19Include recent command history in fast-import crash reportsLibravatar Shawn O. Pearce1-4/+58
When we crash the frontend developer (or end-user) may need to know roughly around what part of the input stream we had a problem with and aborted on. Because line numbers aren't very useful in this sort of application we instead just keep the last 100 commands in a FIFO queue and print them as part of the crash report. Currently one problem with this design is a commit that has more than 100 modified files in it will flood the FIFO and any context regarding branch/from/committer/mark/comments will be lost. We really should save only the last few (10?) file changes for the current commit, ensuring we have some prior higher level commands in the FIFO when we crash on a file M/D/C/R command. Another issue with this approach is the FIFO only includes the commands, it does not include the commit messages. Yet having a commit message may be useful to help locate the relevant change in the source material. In practice I don't think this is going to be a major concern as the frontend can always embed its own source change set identifier as a comment (which will appear in the crash report) and the commit message(s) for the most recent commits of any given branch should be obtainable from the (packed) commit objects.

2007-08-19Generate crash reports on die in fast-importLibravatar Shawn O. Pearce1-0/+93
As fast-import is quite strict about its input and die()'s anytime something goes wrong it can be difficult for a frontend developer to troubleshoot why fast-import rejected their input, or to even determine what input command it rejected. This change introduces a custom handler for Git's die() routine. When we receive a die() for any reason (fast-import or a lower level core Git routine we called) the error is first dumped onto stderr and then a more extensive crash report file is prepared in GIT_DIR. Finally we exit the process with status 128, just like the stock builtin die handler. An internal flag is set to prevent any further die()'s that may be invoked during the crash report generator from causing us to enter into an infinite loop. We shouldn't die() from our crash report handler, but just in case someone makes a future code change we are prepared to gaurd against small mistakes turning into huge problems for the end-user.

2007-08-19Allow frontends to bidirectionally communicate with fast-importLibravatar Shawn O. Pearce3-0/+84
The existing checkpoint command is very useful to force fast-import to dump the branches out to disk so that standard Git tools can access them and the objects they refer to. However there was not a way to know when fast-import had finished executing the checkpoint and it was safe to read those refs. The progress command can be used to make fast-import output any message of the frontend's choosing to standard out. The frontend can scan for these messages using select() or poll() to monitor a pipe connected to the standard output of fast-import. Signed-off-by: Shawn O. Pearce <spearce@spearce.org>
