2012-12-27git-svn: Recommend use of structure options.Libravatar Sebastian Leske1-3/+21
Document that when using git svn, one should usually either use the directory structure options to import branches as branches, or only import one subdirectory. The default behaviour of cloning all branches and tags as subdirectories in the working copy is usually not what the user wants.

2012-12-27git-svn: Document branches with at-sign(@).Libravatar Sebastian Leske1-0/+46
git svn sometimes creates branches with an at-sign in the name (branchname@revision). These branches confuse many users and it is a FAQ why they are created. Document when git svn creates them.

2012-12-27git-remote-helpers.txt: document invocation before input formatLibravatar Max Horn1-31/+31
In the distant past, the order things were documented was 'Invocation', 'Commands', 'Capabilities', ... Then it was decided that before giving a list of Commands, there should be an overall description of the 'Input format', which was a wise decision. However, this description was put as the very first thing, with the rationale that any implementor would want to know that first. However, it seems an implementor would actually first need to know how the remote helper will be invoked, so moving 'Invocation' to the front again seems logical. Moreover, we now don't switch from discussing the input format to the invocation style and then back to input related stuff.

2012-12-18Documentation: Describe "git diff <blob> <blob>" separatelyLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-2/+7
As it was not a common operation, it was described as if it is a side note for the more common two-commit variant, but this mode behaves very differently, e.g. it does not make any sense to ask recursive behaviour, or give the command a pathspec. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
