2013-12-27Remove the line length limit for graft filesLibravatar Johannes Schindelin4-10/+45
Support for grafts predates Git's strbuf, and hence it is understandable that there was a hard-coded line length limit of 1023 characters (which was chosen a bit awkwardly, given that it is *exactly* one byte short of aligning with the 41 bytes occupied by a commit name and the following space or new-line character). While regular commit histories hardly win comprehensibility in general if they merge more than twenty-two branches in one go, it is not Git's business to limit grafts in such a way. In this particular developer's case, the use case that requires substantially longer graft lines to be supported is the visualization of the commits' order implied by their changes: commits are considered to have an implicit relationship iff exchanging them in an interactive rebase would result in merge conflicts. Thusly implied branches tend to be very shallow in general, and the resulting thicket of implied branches is usually very wide; It is actually quite common that *most* of the commits in a topic branch have not even one implied parent, so that a final merge commit has about as many implied parents as there are commits in said branch.

2013-12-02submodule: do not copy unknown update mode from .gitmodulesLibravatar Junio C Hamano2-5/+30
When submodule.$name.update is given as hint from the upstream in the .gitmodules file, we used to blindly copy it to .git/config, unless there already is a value defined for the submodule. However, there is no reason to expect that the update mode hinted by the upstream is available in the version of Git the user is using, and a really custom "!cmd" prepared by an upstream person running on Linux may not even be available to a user on Windows. It is simply irresponsible to copy the setting blindly and to attempt to use it during a later "submodule update" without validating it first. Just show the suggested value to the diagnostic output, and set the value to 'none' in the configuration, if it is not one of the ones that are known to be supported by this version of Git.

2013-11-27Documentation: revamp git-cherry(1)Libravatar Thomas Rast1-33/+110
git-cherry(1)'s "description" section has never really managed to explain to me what the command does. It contains too much explanation of the algorithm instead of simply saying what goals it achieves, and too much terminology that we otherwise do not use (fork-point instead of merge-base). Try a much more concise approach: state what it finds out, why this is neat, and how the output is formatted, in a few short paragraphs. In return, provide much longer examples of how it fits into a "format-patch | am" based workflow, and how it compares to reading the same from git-log. Also carefully avoid using "merge" in a context where it does not mean something that comes from git-merge(1). Instead, say "apply" in an attempt to further link to patch workflow concepts. While there, also omit the language about _which_ upstream branch we treat as the default. I literally just learned that we support having several, so let's not confuse new users here, especially considering that git-config(1) does not document this.

builtin_diff_b_f() needs a path, not pathspec. Other modes in diff can deal with pathspec just fine. But because of the current GUARD_PATHSPEC() location, other modes also reject :(glob) and :(icase). Move GUARD_PATHSPEC(), and the "path" assignment statement, which is the reason of this GUARD_PATHSPEC(), inside builtin_diff_b_f().

Some the labeled list entries have a blank line between the label and the body text, and some don't. Use the latter style for consistency; incidentally, syntax highlighting in Vim works better if there is no blank line there. Typeset literal options, commands, and path names in monospace. When using `literal string` mark-up to do so, there is no need to escape AsciiDoc special characters with backslashes, so make sure we don't do so. Replace some double quotes with proper AsciiDoc quotes (e.g. ``foo''). Signed-off-by: Jason St. John <jstjohn@purdue.edu> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

The man pages contain inconsistent usage of backticks vs. single quotes around options, commands, etc. that are in paragraphs. This commit states that backticks should always be used around literal examples. This commit states that "--" and friends should not be escaped (e.g. use `--pretty=oneline` instead of `\--pretty=oneline`). This commit also states correct usage for typesetting command usage examples with inline substitutions.
