2010-11-24imap-send: link against libcrypto for HMAC and othersLibravatar Diego Elio Pettenò1-1/+1
When using stricter linkers, such as GNU gold or Darwin ld, transitive dependencies are not counted towards symbol resolution. If we don't link imap-send to libcrypto, we'll have undefined references to the HMAC_*, EVP_* and ERR_* functions families.

2010-11-24git-send-email.perl: Deduplicate "to:" and "cc:" entries with namesLibravatar Joe Perches1-1/+1
If an email address in the "to:" list is in the style "First Last <email@domain.tld>", ie: not just a bare address like "email@domain.tld", and the same named entry style exists in the "cc:" list, the current logic will not remove the entry from the "cc:" list. Add logic to better deduplicate the "cc:" list by also matching the email address with angle brackets. Signed-off-by: Joe Perches <joe@perches.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2010-11-10rebase -X: do not clobber strategyLibravatar Martin von Zweigbergk1-4/+0
If any strategy options are passed to -X, the strategy will always be set to 'recursive'. According to the documentation, it should default to 'recursive' if it is not set, but it should be possible to set it to other values.

2010-11-09Documentation: document show -sLibravatar Jonathan Nieder2-0/+7
Git's diff machinery has supported a -s (silence diff output) option as far back as v0.99~900 (Silent flag for show-diff, 2005-04-13), but the option is only advertised in an odd corner of the git diff-tree manual. The main use is to retrieve basic metadata about a commit: git show -s rev Explain this in the 'git log' manual and provide an example in the 'git show' examples section. This is kind of a cop-out, since it would be more useful to explain it in the 'git show' manual proper, which says: The command takes options applicable to the git diff-tree command to control how the changes the commit introduces are shown. This manual page describes only the most frequently used options. Fixing that is a larger task for another day.

Commit c84de70 (excluded_1(): support exclude files in index - 2009-08-20) tries to work around the fact that there is no directory/file information in index entries, therefore EXC_FLAG_MUSTBEDIR match would fail.

2010-10-06work around buggy S_ISxxx(m) implementationsLibravatar René Scharfe1-3/+10
There are buggy implementations of S_ISxxx(m) macros on some platforms (e.g. NetBSD). The issue is that NetBSD doesn't take care to wrap its macro arguments in parentheses, so on Linux and sane systems we have S_ISREG(m) defined as something like: (((m) & S_IFMT) == S_IFREG) But on NetBSD: ((m & _S_IFMT) == _S_IFREG) Since a caller in builtin/diff.c called our macro as `S_IFREG | 0644' this bug introduced a logic error on NetBSD, since the precedence of bit-wise & is higher than | in C.
