2011-12-20git-sh-setup: make require_clean_work_tree part of the interfaceLibravatar Thomas Rast1-0/+10
92c62a3 (Porcelain scripts: Rewrite cryptic "needs update" error message, 2010-10-19) refactored git's own checking to a function in git-sh-setup. This is a very useful thing for script writers, so document it. Signed-off-by: Thomas Rast <trast@student.ethz.ch> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2010-10-28Porcelain scripts: Rewrite cryptic "needs update" error messageLibravatar Ramkumar Ramachandra4-28/+34
Although Git interally has the facility to differentiate between porcelain and plubmbing commands and appropriately print errors, several shell scripts invoke plubming commands triggering cryptic plumbing errors to be displayed on a porcelain interface. This patch replaces the "needs update" message in git-pull and git-rebase, when `git update-index` is run, with a more friendly message.

2010-10-28completion: fix zsh check under bash with 'set -u'Libravatar Mark Lodato1-3/+3
Commit 06f44c3 (completion: make compatible with zsh) broke bash compatibility with 'set -u': a warning was generated when checking $ZSH_VERSION. The solution is to supply a default value, using ${ZSH_VERSION-}. Thanks to SZEDER Gábor for the fix. Signed-off-by: Mark Lodato <lodatom@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2010-10-13fast-import: Allow filemodify to set the rootLibravatar David Barr3-0/+33
v1.7.3-rc0~75^2 (Teach fast-import to import subtrees named by tree id, 2010-06-30) has a shortcoming - it doesn't allow the root to be set. Extend this behaviour by allowing the root to be referenced as the empty path, "". For a command (like filter-branch --subdirectory-filter) that wants to commit a lot of trees that already exist in the object db, writing undeltified objects as loose files only to repack them later can involve a significant amount of overhead. (23% slow-down observed on Linux 2.6.35, worse on Mac OS X 10.6) Fortunately we have fast-import (which is one of the only git commands that will write to a pack directly) but there is not an advertised way to tell fast-import to commit a given tree without unpacking it. This patch changes that, by allowing M 040000 <tree id> "" as a filemodify line in a commit to reset to a particular tree without any need to parse it. For example, M 040000 4b825dc642cb6eb9a060e54bf8d69288fbee4904 "" is a synonym for the deleteall command and the fast-import equivalent of git read-tree 4b825dc642cb6eb9a060e54bf8d69288fbee4904 Signed-off-by: David Barr <david.barr@cordelta.com> Commit-message-by: Jonathan Nieder <jrnieder@gmail.com> Acked-by: Sverre Rabbelier <srabbelier@gmail.com> Tested-by: Ramkumar Ramachandra <artagnon@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Ramkumar Ramachandra <artagnon@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2010-10-13gitweb: Improve behavior for actionless path_info gitweb URLsLibravatar Jakub Narebski1-2/+9
Eli Barzilay noticed that http://server/gitweb/project/<commit-sha1> link goes to 'shortlog' view, while 'commit' view would be more useful, but that 'shortlog' action is more apropriate for http://server/gitweb/project/<commit-sha1>..<other-commit-sha1> links. Therefore for the case when we don't have either action, or filename, or parent hash [base] in path_info-based URL, i.e. for http://server/gitweb/project/<object-id> link, instead of using 'shortlog' view we allow dispatch() subroutine to detect type of object and use appropriate action (in most case it would be either 'commit' action, or 'tag', or 'tree' for top directory).
