2006-12-15make commit message a little more consistent and confortingLibravatar Nicolas Pitre1-0/+5
It is nicer to let the user know when a commit succeeded all the time, not only the first time. Also the commit sha1 is much more useful than the tree sha1 in this case. This patch also introduces a -q switch to supress this message as well as the summary of created/deleted files.

2006-12-04Document git-diff whitespace flags -b and -wLibravatar Jakub Narebski1-0/+16
Document git diff options -b / --ignore-space-change and -w / --ignore-all-space, introduced by Johannes Schindelin in commit 0d21efa5, "Teach diff about -b and -w flags". The description of options is taken from GNU diff man page and GNU Diffutils info documentation. Signed-off-by: Jakub Narebski <jnareb@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

2006-09-28diff --stat=width[,name-width]: allow custom diffstat output width.Libravatar Linus Torvalds1-2/+5
Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2006-08-10Add the --color-words option to the diff options familyLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-0/+3
With this option, the changed words are shown inline. For example, if a file containing "This is foo" is changed to "This is bar", the diff will now show "This is " in plain text, "foo" in red, and "bar" in green.

2006-05-14Add "--summary" option to git diff.Libravatar Sean1-0/+4
Remove the need to pipe git diff through git apply to get the extended headers summary. Signed-off-by: Sean Estabrooks <seanlkml@sympatico.ca> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2006-04-15diff-options: add --patch-with-statLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-0/+3
With this option, git prepends a diffstat in front of the patch. Since I really, really do not know what a diffstat of a combined diff ("merge diff") should look like, the diffstat is not generated for these. Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <Johannes.Schindelin@gmx.de> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2006-04-13diff-options: add --stat (take 2)Libravatar Johannes Schindelin1-0/+3
Now, you can say "git diff --stat" (to get an idea how many changes are uncommitted), or "git log --stat". Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <Johannes.Schindelin@gmx.de> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

2006-04-04Support for pickaxe matching regular expressionsLibravatar Petr Baudis1-0/+4
git-diff-* --pickaxe-regex will change the -S pickaxe to match POSIX extended regular expressions instead of fixed strings. The regex.h library is a rather stupid interface and I like pcre too, but with any luck it will be everywhere we will want to run Git on, it being POSIX.2 and all. I'm not sure if we can expect platforms like AIX to conform to POSIX.2 or if win32 has regex.h. We might add a flag to Makefile if there is a portability trouble potential.

2005-12-19diff --abbrev: document --abbrev=<n> form.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-4/+5
It was implemented there but was not advertised. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2005-12-19diff: --abbrev optionLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+7
When I show transcripts to explain how something works, I often find myself hand-editing the diff-raw output to shorten various object names in the output. This adds --abbrev option to the diff family, which shortens diff-raw output and diff-tree commit id headers. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2005-11-16diff: --full-indexLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+5
A new option, --full-index, is introduced to diff family. This causes the full object name of pre- and post-images to appear on the index line of patch formatted output, to be used in conjunction with --allow-binary-replacement option of git-apply. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2005-11-11Change 'cache' to 'index' in the docsLibravatar Lukas_Sandström1-1/+1
This patch makes the documentation refer to the index as index instead of cache, but some references still remain. (e.g. git-update-index.txt) Signed-off-by: Lukas Sandström <lukass@etek.chalmers.se> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

Typos, light editing and clarifications. Signed-off-by: Christian Meder <chris@absolutegiganten.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2005-09-24Diff: --name-status output format.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-2/+2
The new output format shows only the status letter and paths. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2005-09-24Diff: -l<num> to limit rename/copy detection.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+7
When many paths are modified, rename detection takes a lot of time. The new option -l<num> can be used to disable rename detection when more than <num> paths are possibly created as renames. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2005-08-30Documentaion updates.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+2
Mostly making the formatted html prettier. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net> (cherry picked from 7adf1f15ebe074d4767df941817a6cf86d8e2533 commit)
2005-08-05[PATCH] Assorted documentation patchesLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-2/+2
[jc: Johannes spent time and effort to see how consistent our use of terminilogy is, and as a byproduct made these corrections not related to the terminology unification. I really appreciate it.] Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <Johannes.Schindelin@gmx.de> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2005-07-13[PATCH] Clean up diff option descriptions.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+53
I got tired of maintaining almost duplicated descriptions in diff-* brothers, both in usage string and documentation. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
