"git clone" learned clone.defaultremotename configuration variable to customize what nickname to use to call the remote the repository was cloned from. * sb/clone-origin: clone: allow configurable default for `-o`/`--origin` clone: read new remote name from remote_name instead of option_origin clone: validate --origin option before use refs: consolidate remote name validation remote: add tests for add and rename with invalid names clone: use more conventional config/option layering clone: add tests for --template and some disallowed option pairs
2020-09-30clone: allow configurable default for `-o`/`--origin`Libravatar Sean Barag1-0/+2
While the default remote name of "origin" can be changed at clone-time with `git clone`'s `--origin` option, it was previously not possible to specify a default value for the name of that remote. Add support for a new `clone.defaultRemoteName` config, with the newly-created remote name resolved in priority order: 1. (Highest priority) A remote name passed directly to `git clone -o` 2. A `clone.defaultRemoteName=new_name` in config `git clone -c` 3. A `clone.defaultRemoteName` value set in `/path/to/template/config`, where `--template=/path/to/template` is provided 4. A `clone.defaultRemoteName` value set in a non-template config file 5. The default value of `origin` Helped-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com> Helped-by: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de> Helped-by: Derrick Stolee <stolee@gmail.com> Helped-by: Andrei Rybak <rybak.a.v@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Sean Barag <sean@barag.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2020-09-17maintenance: create maintenance.<task>.enabled configLibravatar Derrick Stolee1-0/+2
Currently, a normal run of "git maintenance run" will only run the 'gc' task, as it is the only one enabled. This is mostly for backwards- compatible reasons since "git maintenance run --auto" commands replaced previous "git gc --auto" commands after some Git processes. Users could manually run specific maintenance tasks by calling "git maintenance run --task=<task>" directly. Allow users to customize which steps are run automatically using config. The 'maintenance.<task>.enabled' option then can turn on these other tasks (or turn off the 'gc' task).

2020-09-09commit-graph: respect 'commitGraph.readChangedPaths'Libravatar Taylor Blau1-0/+2
Git uses the 'core.commitGraph' configuration value to control whether or not the commit graph is used when parsing commits or performing a traversal. Now that commit-graphs can also contain a section for changed-path Bloom filters, administrators that already have commit-graphs may find it convenient to use those graphs without relying on their changed-path Bloom filters. This can happen, for example, during a staged roll-out, or in the event of an incident. Introduce 'commitGraph.readChangedPaths' to control whether or not Bloom filters are read. Note that this configuration is independent from both: - 'core.commitGraph', to allow flexibility in using all parts of a commit-graph _except_ for its Bloom filters. - The '--changed-paths' option for 'git commit-graph write', to allow reading and writing Bloom filters to be controlled independently. When the variable is set, pretend as if no Bloom data was specified at all. This avoids adding additional special-casing outside of the commit-graph internals.

356aea6 ("doc: move extensions.worktreeConfig to the right place", 2018-11-14) moved the explanation of extension.worktreeConfig from config.txt to technical/repository-version.txt. However, the former still contains a reference to the removed paragraph. We could fix it referencing the gitrepository-layout man page, which contains the moved explanation. But the git-worktree man page has additional information and recommendations for the worktree config file, so let's reference it instead.

2019-09-09Documentation: wrap config listings in "----"Libravatar Martin Ågren1-41/+43
The indented lines in these example config-file listings are indented differently by AsciiDoc and Asciidoctor. Fix this by marking the example config-files as code listings by wrapping them in "----". Because this gives us some extra indentation, we can remove the one that we have been carrying explicitly. That is, drop the first tab of indentation on each line. With AsciiDoc, this results in identical rendering before and after this commit. Asciidoctor now renders this the same as AsciiDoc does. git-config.txt pretty consistently uses twelve dashes rather than the minimum four to spell "----". Let's stick to the file-local convention there. Signed-off-by: Martin Ågren <martin.agren@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2019-06-05config: learn the "onbranch:" includeIf conditionLibravatar Denton Liu1-0/+19
Currently, if a user wishes to have individual settings per branch, they are required to manually keep track of the settings in their head and manually set the options on the command-line or change the config at each branch. Teach config the "onbranch:" includeIf condition so that it can conditionally include configuration files if the branch that is checked out in the current worktree matches the pattern given.

2018-11-16doc: move extensions.worktreeConfig to the right placeLibravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-7/+0
All config extensions are described in technical/repository-version.txt. I made a mistake of adding it in config.txt instead. This patch moves it back to where it belongs. Since repository-version.txt is not part of officially generated documents (it's not even part of DOC_HTML target), it's only visible to developers who read plain .txt files. Let's include it in gitrepository-layout.5 for more visibility. Some minor asciidoc fixes are required in repository-version.txt to make this happen.
