2007-01-01Update clone/fetch documentation with --depth (shallow clone) optionLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+5

2007-01-01Strongly discourage --update-head-ok in fetch-options documentation.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-2/+4
"Use it with care" is a wrong wording to say "this is purely internal and you are supposed to know what you are doing if you use this". Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2006-01-26git-fetch --upload-pack: disambiguate.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-2/+1
Johannes noticed the recent addition of this new flag inadvertently took over existing --update-head-ok (-u). Require longer abbreviation to this new option which would be needed in a rare setup. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2006-01-24git-fetch: pass --upload-pack to fetch-packLibravatar Michal Ostrowski1-0/+7
Without this, there is no way to specify a remote executable when invoking git-pull/git-fetch as there is for git-clone. [jc: I have a mild suspicion that this is a broken environment (aka sysadmin disservice). It may be legal to configure your sshd to spawn named program without involving shell at all, and if your sysadmin does so and you have your git programs under your home directory, you would need something like this, but then I suspect you would need such workaround everywhere, not just git. But we have these options we can use to work around the issue, so there is no strong reason not to reject this patch, either. ] Signed-off-by: Michal Ostrowski <mostrows@watson.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

2006-01-07git-fetch: auto-following tags.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-5/+13
I added things to ls-remote so that Cogito can auto-follow tags easily and correctly a while ago, but git-fetch did not use the facility. Recently added git-describe command relies on repository keeping up-to-date set of tags, which made it much more attractive to automatically follow tags, so we do that as well.

2005-12-01Documentation: describe '-f' option to git-fetch.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+5
The option description header was there without body text, confusingly getting rendered as if the description for --tags applied to the option. Noticed by Carl Baldwin. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2005-11-18Update pull/fetch --tags documentationLibravatar Luck, Tony1-1/+3
When fetching/pulling from a remote repository the "--tags" option can be used to pull tags too. Document that it will limit the pull to only commits reachable from the tags. Signed-off-by: Tony Luck <tony.luck@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

2005-11-06Refactored merge options into separate merge-options.txt.Libravatar Jon Loeliger1-0/+14
Refactored fetch options into separate fetch-options.txt. Made git-merge use merge-options. Made git-fetch use fetch-options. Made git-pull use merge-options and fetch-options. Added --help option to git-pull and git-format-patch scripts. Rewrote Documentation/Makefile to dynamically determine include dependencies.
