2015-08-04git-am: add am.threeWay config variableLibravatar Remi Lespinet1-2/+5
Add the am.threeWay configuration variable to use the -3 or --3way option of git am by default. When am.threeway is set and not desired for a specific git am command, the --no-3way option can be used to override it.

2015-07-24Revert "git-am: add am.threeWay config variable"Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-5/+2
This reverts commit d96a275b91bae1800cd43be0651e886e7e042a17. It used to be possible to apply a patch series with "git am mbox" and then only after seeing a failure, switch to three-way mode via "git am -3" (no other options or arguments). The commit being reverted broke this workflow. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

It is not obvious when looking at a new command what hooks will affect it. Add a HOOKS section to the git-am(1) page, imitating git-commit(1), to make it easier for people to discover e.g. the applypatch-msg hook that can implement a custom subject-mangling strategy (e.g., removing a "bug #nnnn:" prefix introduced by a bug tracker).

2013-06-27am: replace uses of --resolved with --continueLibravatar Kevin Bracey1-2/+2

git-am could pass -k to mailinfo, but not -b. Introduce an option that does so. We change the meaning of the 'keep' state file, but are careful not to cause a problem unless you downgrade in the middle of an 'am' run. This uncovers a bug in mailinfo -b, hence the failing test.

2011-03-22git-am.txt: advertise 'git am --abort' instead of 'rm .git/rebase-apply'Libravatar SZEDER Gábor1-3/+3
'git am --abort' is around for quite a long time now, and users should normally not poke around inside the .git directory, yet the documentation of 'git am' still recommends the following: ... if you decide to start over from scratch, run `rm -f -r .git/rebase-apply` ... Suggest 'git am --abort' instead. It's not quite the same as the original, because 'git am --abort' will restore the original branch, while simply removing '.git/rebase-apply' won't, but that's rather a thinko in the original wording, because that won't actually "start over _from scratch_".

2011-03-11doc: drop author/documentation sections from most pagesLibravatar Jeff King1-9/+0
The point of these sections is generally to: 1. Give credit where it is due. 2. Give the reader an idea of where to ask questions or file bug reports. But they don't do a good job of either case. For (1), they are out of date and incomplete. A much more accurate answer can be gotten through shortlog or blame. For (2), the correct contact point is generally git@vger, and even if you wanted to cc the contact point, the out-of-date and incomplete fields mean you're likely sending to somebody useless. So let's drop the fields entirely from all manpages except git(1) itself. We already point people to the mailing list for bug reports there, and we can update the Authors section to give credit to the major contributors and point to shortlog and blame for more information. Each page has a "This is part of git" footer, so people can follow that to the main git manpage.

2010-02-28git-am: Add command line parameter `--keep-cr` passing it to git-mailsplitLibravatar Stefan-W. Hahn1-1/+6
c2ca1d7 (Allow mailsplit (and hence git-am) to handle mails with CRLF line-endings, 2009-08-04) fixed "git mailsplit" to help people with MUA whose output from save-as command uses CRLF as line terminators by stripping CR at the end of lines. However, when you know you are feeding output from "git format-patch" directly to "git am", and especially when your contents have CR at the end of line, such stripping is undesirable. To help such a use case, teach --keep-cr option to "git am" and pass that to "git mailinfo". Signed-off-by: Stefan-W. Hahn <stefan.hahn@s-hahn.de> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2010-02-11am: switch --resolved to --continueLibravatar Jeff King1-1/+2

2010-01-10Documentation: spell 'git cmd' without dash throughoutLibravatar Thomas Rast1-5/+5
The documentation was quite inconsistent when spelling 'git cmd' if it only refers to the program, not to some specific invocation syntax: both 'git-cmd' and 'git cmd' spellings exist. The current trend goes towards dashless forms, and there is precedent in 647ac70 (git-svn.txt: stop using dash-form of commands., 2009-07-07) to actively eliminate the dashed variants. Replace 'git-cmd' with 'git cmd' throughout, except where git-shell, git-cvsserver, git-upload-pack, git-receive-pack, and git-upload-archive are concerned, because those really live in the $PATH.

2009-06-18am, rebase: teach quiet optionLibravatar Stephen Boyd1-1/+5
git-am and git-rebase are talkative scripts. Teach them to be quiet when told, allowing them to speak only when they fail or experience errors. The quiet option is maintained when git-am or git-rebase fails to apply a patch. This means subsequent --resolved, --continue, --skip, --abort invocations will be quiet if the original invocation was quiet. Drop a handful of >&2 redirection; the rest of the program sends all the info messages to stdout, not to stderr.

2009-01-25git-am: Add --ignore-date optionLibravatar Nanako Shiraishi1-1/+16
This new option tells 'git-am' to ignore the date header field recorded in the format-patch output. The commits will have the timestamp when they are created instead. You can work a lot in one day to accumulate many changes, but apply and push to the public repository only some of them at the end of the first day. Then next day you can spend all your working hours reading comics or chatting with your coworkers, and apply your remaining patches from the previous day using this option to pretend that you have been working at the end of the day.

2009-01-23git-am: implement --reject option passed to git-applyLibravatar martin f. krafft1-0/+2

Thanks to a200337 (git-am: propagate -C<n>, -p<n> options as well, 2008-12-04) and commits around it, "git am" is equipped to correctly propagate the command line flags such as -C/-p/-whitespace across a patch failure and restart.

2008-07-21Rename .git/rebase to .git/rebase-applyLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-2/+2

Since the files generated and used during a rebase are never to be tracked, they should live in $GIT_DIR. While at it, avoid the rather meaningless term "dotest" to "rebase", and unhide ".dotest-merge". This was wished for on the mailing list, but so far unimplemented.
