2007-05-07user-manual: fix .gitconfig editing examplesLibravatar J. Bruce Fields1-4/+3
Santi Béjar points out that when telling people how to "introduce themselves" to git we're advising them to replace their entire .gitconfig file. Fix that. Cc: "Santi Béjar <sbejar@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: "J. Bruce Fields" <bfields@citi.umich.edu>
2007-05-07user-manual: clean up fast-forward and dangling-objects sectionsLibravatar J. Bruce Fields1-33/+40
The previous commit calls attention to the fact that we have two sections each devoted to fast-forwards and to dangling objects. Revise and attempt to differentiate them a bit. Some more reorganization may be required later.... Signed-off-by: J. Bruce Fields
2007-05-07user-manual: add section ID'sLibravatar J. Bruce Fields1-2/+82
Any section lacking an id gets an annoying warning when you build the manual. More seriously, the table of contents then generates volatile id's which change with every build, with the effect that we get URL's that change all the time. The ID's are manually generated and sometimes inconsistent, but that's OK. XXX: what to do about the preface? Signed-off-by: "J. Bruce Fields" <bfields@citi.umich.edu>

Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2007-05-05blame: -C -C -CLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-2/+13
When you do this, existing "blame -C -C" would not find that the latter half of the file2 came from the existing file1: ... both file1 and file2 are tracked ... $ cat file1 >>file2 $ git add file1 file2 $ git commit This is because we avoid the expensive find-copies-harder code that makes unchanged file (in this case, file1) as a candidate for copy & paste source when annotating an existing file (file2). The third -C now allows it. However, this obviously makes the process very expensive. We've actually seen this patch before, but I dismissed it because it covers such a narrow (and arguably stupid) corner case. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2007-05-05blame: Notice a wholesale incorporation of an existing file.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-12/+40
The -C option to blame tries to find a section of a preimage file by running diff against the lines whose origin is still unknown, and excluding the different parts. The code however did not cover the case where the tail part of the section matched, which we handle for the normal non-move/copy codepath. This breakage was most visible when preimage file matches in its entirety and failed to pass blame in such a case. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

2007-05-04Mention version 1.5.1 in tutorial and user-manualLibravatar Carl Worth2-4/+4
Most other documentation will frequently be read from an installation of git so will naturally be associated with the installed version. But these two documents in particular are often read from web pages while users are still exploring git. It's important to mention version 1.5.1 since these documents provide example commands that won't work with previous versions of git. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2007-05-04Add --no-rebase option to git-svn dcommitLibravatar Karl Hasselström2-15/+21
git-svn dcommit exports commits to Subversion, then imports them back to git again, and last but not least rebases or resets HEAD to the last of the new commits. I guess this rebasing is convenient when using just git, but when the commits to be exported are managed by StGIT, it's really annoying. So add an option to disable this behavior. And document it, too! Signed-off-by: Karl Hasselström <kha@treskal.com> Acked-by: Eric Wong <normalperson@yhbt.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

2007-05-03Allow PERL_PATH="/usr/bin/env perl"Libravatar Bryan Larsen1-1/+1
There is a mechanism PERL_PATH in the Makefile to specify path to Perl binary, but sometimes it is convenient to let 'env' figure out where Perl comes from, with PERL_PATH="/usr/bin/env perl". Allowing this would make things easier to MacPorts, where we wish to work with the MacPorts perl if it is installed, but fall back to the system perl if it isn't.

2007-05-03Make xstrndup commonLibravatar Daniel Barkalow2-8/+13
This also improves the implementation to match how strndup is specified (by GNU): if the length given is longer than the string, only the string's length is allocated and copied, but the string need not be null-terminated if it is at least as long as the given length.

2007-05-03http-fetch: Disable use of curl multi support for libcurl < 7.16.Libravatar Alexandre Julliard1-1/+1
curl_multi_remove_handle() is broken in libcurl < 7.16, in that it doesn't correctly update the active handles count when a request is aborted.

2007-05-02Teach import-tars about GNU tar's @LongLink extension.Libravatar Johannes Schindelin1-0/+19
This extension allows GNU tar to process file names in excess of the 100 characters defined by the original tar standard. It does this by faking a file, named '././@LongLink' containing the true file name, and then adding the file with a truncated name. The idea is that tar without this extension will write out a file with the long file name, and write the contents into a file with truncated name. Unfortunately, GNU tar does a lousy job at times. When truncating results in a _directory_ name, it will happily use _that_ as a truncated name for the file. An example where this actually happens is gcc-4.1.2, where the full path of the file WeThrowThisExceptionHelper.java truncates _exactly_ before the basename. So, we have to support that ad-hoc extension. This bug was noticed by Chris Riddoch on IRC. Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de> Signed-off-by: Shawn O.

2007-04-30Fix symlink handling in git-svn, related to PerlIOLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-2/+2
After reading the leading contents from a symlink data obtained from subversion, which we expect to begin with 'link ', the code forked to hash the remainder (which should match readlink() result) using git-hash-objects, by redirecting its STDIN from the filehandle we read that 'link ' from. This was Ok with Perl on modern Linux, but on Mac OS, the read in the parent process slurped more than we asked for in stdio buffer, and the child did not correctly see the "remainder". This attempts to fix the issue by using lower level sysseek and sysread instead of seek and read to bypass the stdio buffer.

2007-04-28Catch empty pathnames in trees during fsckLibravatar Shawn O. Pearce1-0/+6
Released versions of fast-import have been able to create a tree that contains files or subtrees that contain no name. Unfortunately these trees aren't valid, but people may have actually tried to create them due to bugs in import-tars.perl or their own fast-import frontend.
