2008-05-03checkout: don't rfc2047-encode oneline on detached HEADLibravatar Jeff King1-1/+1
When calling pretty_print_commit, there is an implicit assumption that passing in a non-NULL "subject" variable for oneline or email formats means that the output is part of a subject and therefore "subject" to rfc2047 encoding. This is not the desired effect when reporting the movement of detached HEAD. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2008-05-03log: print log entry terminator even if the message is emptyLibravatar Adam Simpkins1-4/+3
This eliminates a special case in the show_log() function, to help simplify the terminator semantics. Now show_log() always prints a newline after the log entry when use_terminator is set, even if the log message is empty. This change should only affect the --pretty=tformat output, since that was the only way to trigger this special case.

2008-04-30git-svn: Same default as cvsimport when using --use-log-authorLibravatar Stephen R. van den Berg1-2/+4
When using git-cvsimport, the author is inferred from the cvs commit, e.g. cvs commit logname is foobaruser, then the author field in git results in: Author: foobaruser <foobaruser> Which is not perfect, but perfectly acceptable given the circumstances. The default git-svn import however, results in: Author: foobaruser <foobaruser@acf43c95-373e-0410-b603-e72c3f656dc1> When using mixes of imports, from CVS and SVN into the same git repository, you'd like to harmonise the imports to the format cvsimport uses. git-svn supports an experimental option --use-log-author which currently results in the same logentry as without that option when no From: or Signed-off-by: is found in the logentry ($email currently ends up empty, and hence is generated again). This patches harmonises the result with cvsimport, and makes git-svn --use-log-author produce: Author: foobaruser <foobaruser> Signed-off-by: Stephen R. van den Berg <srb@cuci.nl> Acked-by: Eric Wong <normalperson@yhbt.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2008-04-29Documentation: point git-prune users to git-gcLibravatar Jeff King2-1/+22
Most users should be using git-gc instead of directly calling prune. For those who really do want more information on pruning, let's point them at git-fsck, which goes into slightly more detail on reachability. And since we're pointing users there, let's make sure reflogs are mentioned in git-fsck(1). Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2008-04-29git-svn: detect and fail gracefully when dcommitting to a voidLibravatar Matthieu Moy2-2/+7
The command git svn clone (URL of an empty SVN repo here) works, creates an empty git repository. I can perform the initial commit there, but then, "git svn dcommit" says : Use of uninitialized value in concatenation (.) or string at .../git-svn line 414. Committing to ... Unable to determine upstream SVN information from HEAD history I guess a correct management of the initial commit in git-svn would be hard to implement, but at least, the error message can be improved. First step is something like the patch below, and better would be for "git svn clone" to warn that it won't be able to do much with the cloned repo.

2008-04-29fix reflog approxidate parsing bugLibravatar Jeff King1-2/+5
In get_sha1_basic, we parse a string like HEAD@{10 seconds ago}:path/to/file into its constituent ref, reflog date, and path components. We never actually munge the string itself, but instead keep offsets into the string with their associated lengths. When we call approxidate on the contents inside braces, however, we pass just a string without a length. This means that approxidate could sometimes look past the closing brace and (erroneously) interpret the rest of the string as part of the date.

2008-04-24remote: create fetch config lines with '+'Libravatar Jeff King2-0/+11
Since git-remote always uses remote tracking branches, it should be safe to always force updates of those branches. I.e., we should generate fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/$remote/* instead of fetch = refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/$remote/* This was the behavior of the perl version, which seems to have been lost in the C rewrite.

2008-04-24push: allow unqualified dest refspecs to DWIMLibravatar Jeff King2-3/+69
Previously, a push like: git push remote src:dst would go through the following steps: 1. check for an unambiguous 'dst' on the remote; if it exists, then push to that ref 2. otherwise, check if 'dst' begins with 'refs/'; if it does, create a new ref 3. otherwise, complain because we don't know where in the refs hierarchy to put 'dst' However, in some cases, we can guess about the ref type of 'dst' based on the ref type of 'src'. Specifically, before complaining we now check: 2.5. if 'src' resolves to a ref starting with refs/heads or refs/tags, then prepend that to 'dst' So now this creates a new branch on the remote, whereas it previously failed with an error message: git push master:newbranch Note that, by design, we limit this DWIM behavior only to source refs which resolve exactly (including symrefs which resolve to existing refs). We still complain on a partial destination refspec if the source is a raw sha1, or a ref expression such as 'master~10'.

2008-04-23t5516: remove ambiguity test (1)Libravatar Jeff King1-13/+1
This test tried to push into a remote with ambiguous refs in remotes/$x/master and remotes/$y/master. However, the remote never actually tells us about the refs/remotes hierarchy, so we don't even see this ambiguity. The test happened to pass because we were simply looking for failure, and the test fails for another reason: the dst refspec does not exist and does not begin with refs/, making it invalid.
