2010-07-28Document ls-files -t as semi-obsolete.Libravatar Matthieu Moy1-2/+10
The behavior of "git ls-files -t" is very misleading (see http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/126516 and http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/144394/focus=144397 for examples of mislead users) and badly documented, hence we point the users to superior alternatives. The feature is marked as "semi-obsolete" but not "scheduled for removal" since it's a plumbing command, scripts might use it, and Git testsuite already uses it to test the state of the index.

2010-07-27commit: remove full stop from usage help for -uLibravatar Stephen Boyd1-1/+1
From api-parse-options.txt: `description` is a short string to describe the effect of the option. It shall begin with a lower-case letter and a full stop (`.`) shall be omitted at the end.

2010-07-27Clarify help message when no remote is specified in fetch/pull.Libravatar Matthieu Moy1-1/+2
The message is especially confusing when "git fetch" is ran from "git pull", for users not aware of "git fetch". The new message makes it clear that "fetch" means "fetch new revisions", and gives hint on the solution. We don't add a advice.* configuration option since this message doesn't appear in normal use, and shouldn't disturb advanced users.

2010-07-25t3700-add: fix dependence on stdout and stderr bufferingLibravatar Johannes Sixt1-3/+6
One test case checked the stdout and stderr of 'git add' by constructing a single 'expect' file that contained both streams. But when the command runs, the order of stdout and stderr output is unpredictable because it depends on how the streams are buffered. At least on Windows, the buffering is different from what the test case expected. Hence, check the two output texts separately.

2010-07-25git-rebase--interactive.sh: use printf instead of echo to print commit messageLibravatar Brandon Casey2-7/+13
On systems with an echo which defaults to the XSI-conformant behavior (Solaris, or others using Ksh), echo will interpret certain backslashed characters as control sequences. This can cause a problem for interactive rebase when it is used to rebase commits whose commit "subject" (the first line) contains any of these backslashed sequences. In this case, echo will substitute the control sequence for the backslashed characters and either the rebased commit message will differ from the original, or the rebase process will fail. Neither is desirable. So work around this issue by replacing the echo statements used to print out portions of the commit message, with printf. Also, add a test to test for this breakage.

2010-07-23git-instaweb: Don't assume Apache executable is named apache2Libravatar Dan McGee1-5/+14
On Arch Linux, the executable for the Apache HTTP server keeps the 'httpd' name and is not named 'apache2'. The path to the server modules also contains 'httpd' rather than 'apache2'.

2010-07-20t/{t5541,lib-httpd}: replace problematic '!()' notation with test_must_failLibravatar Brandon Casey2-2/+2
The '!()' notation is interpreted as a pattern-list on Ksh. The Ksh man page describe it as follows: !(pattern-list) Matches anything except one of the given patterns. Ksh performs a file glob using the pattern-list and then tries to execute the first file in the list. If a space is added between the '!' and the open parens, then Ksh will not interpret it as a pattern list, but in this case, it is preferred to use test_must_fail, so lets do so.

2010-07-20t/t3700: convert two uses of negation operator '!' to use test_must_failLibravatar Brandon Casey1-2/+2
These two lines use the negation '!' operator to negate the result of a simple command. Since these commands do not contain any pipes or other complexities, the test_must_fail function can be used and is preferred since it will additionally detect termination due to a signal. This was noticed because the second use of '!' does not include a space between the '!' and the opening parens. Ksh interprets this as follows: !(pattern-list) Matches anything except one of the given patterns. Ksh performs a file glob using the pattern-list and then tries to execute the first file in the list.

2010-07-19git-svn: write memoized data explicitly to avoid Storable bugLibravatar Sergey Vlasov1-0/+16
Apparently using the Storable module during global destruction is unsafe - there is a bug which can cause segmentation faults: http://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=36087 http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=482355 The persistent memoization support introduced in commit 8bff7c538 relied on global destruction to write cached data, which was leading to segfaults in some Perl configurations. Calling Memoize::unmemoize in the END block forces the cache writeout to be performed earlier, thus avoiding the bug.

2010-07-16diff A...B: do not limit the syntax too narrowlyLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-13/+0
Earlier we tried to make sure that the trees we get are what A...B syntax produced, by checking that earlier ones are all marked uninteresting (which has to be true as they are merge bases), there are two remaining ones that are interesting, and they are marked as non-symmetric-left and symmetric-left respectively. The "the last two must be interesting" condition is however wrong when one is an ancestor of the other between A and B (i.e. fast-forward). In such a case, one of them is marked uninteresting.
