Change the behaviour of git commit --interactive so that when you abort
the commit (by leaving the commit message empty) the index remains
unchanged.
Hitherto an aborted commit --interactive has added the selected hunks to
the index regardless of whether the commit succeeded or not.

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are out of date and incomplete.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wanted to cc the contact point, the out-of-date and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.

* js/cherry-pick-usability:
Teach commit about CHERRY_PICK_HEAD
bash: teach __git_ps1 about CHERRY_PICK_HEAD
Introduce CHERRY_PICK_HEAD
t3507: introduce pristine-detach helper
|
|
Previously the user was advised to use commit -c CHERRY_PICK_HEAD after
a conflicting cherry-pick. While this would preserve the original
commit's authorship, it would sadly discard cherry-pick's carefully
crafted MERGE_MSG (which contains the list of conflicts as well as the
original commit-id in the case of cherry-pick -x).
On the other hand, if a bare 'commit' were performed, it would preserve
the MERGE_MSG while resetting the authorship.
In other words, there was no way to simultaneously take the authorship
from CHERRY_PICK_HEAD and the commit message from MERGE_MSG.
This change fixes that situation. A bare 'commit' will now take the
authorship from CHERRY_PICK_HEAD and the commit message from MERGE_MSG.
If the user wishes to reset authorship, that must now be done explicitly
via --reset-author.
A side-benefit of passing commit authorship along this way is that we
can eliminate redundant authorship parsing code from revert.c.
(Also removed an unused include from revert.c)

This option makes it convenient to construct commit messages for use
with 'rebase --autosquash'. The resulting commit message will be
"squash! ..." where "..." is the subject line of the specified commit
message. This option can be used with other commit message options
such as -m, -c, -C and -F.
If an editor is invoked (as with -c or -eF or no message options) the
commit message is seeded with the correctly formatted subject line.
Example usage:
$ git commit --squash HEAD~2
$ git commit --squash HEAD~2 -m "clever comment"
$ git commit --squash HEAD~2 -F msgfile
$ git commit --squash HEAD~2 -C deadbeef

Change git-commit(1) to accept the --allow-empty-message option
to allow a commit with an empty message. This is analogous to the
existing --allow-empty option which allows a commit that records
no changes. As these are mainly for interoperating with foreign SCM
systems, and are not meant for normal use, ensure that "git commit -h"
does not talk about them.

Ever since the "See linkgit:git-config[1]..." paragraph was added to the
description for --untracked-files (d6293d1), the paragraphs for the
following options were indented at the same level as the "See
linkgit:git-config[1]" paragraph. This problem showed up in the
manpages, but not in the HTML documentation.
While this does fix the alignment of the options following
--untracked-files in the manpage, the "See linkgit..." portion of the
description does not retain its previous indentation level in the
manpages, or HTML documentation.

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.

--reset-author
When we use -c, -C, or --amend, we are trying one of two things: using the
source as a template or modifying a commit with corrections.
When these options are used, the authorship and timestamp recorded in the
newly created commit are always taken from the original commit. This is
inconvenient when we just want to borrow the commit log message or when
our change to the code is so significant that we should take over the
authorship (with the blame for bugs we introduce, of course).
The new --reset-author option is meant to solve this need by regenerating
the timestamp and setting the committer as the new author.

wanted to update the documentation to say that "git status" is not the

The status command recently grew "short" and "porcelain"
options for alternate output formats. Since status is no
longer "commit --dry-run", these formats are inaccessible to
people who do want to see a dry-run in a parseable form.
This patch makes those formats available to "git commit",
implying the "dry-run" option when they are used.

This teaches --dry-run option to "git commit".
It is the same as "git status", but in the longer term we would want to
change the semantics of "git status" not to be the preview of commit, and
this is the first step for doing so.

This allows "git commit --author=$name" to accept a name that is not in
the required "A U Thor <author@example.xz>" format, and use that to look
up an author name that matches from existing commits.
When using this feature, it is the user's responsibility to give a name
that uniquely matches the name s/he wants, as the logic returns the name
from the first matching commit.

With git-commands moving out of $(bindir), it is useful to make a
clearer distinction between the git subcommand 'git-whatever' and
the command you type, `git whatever <options>`. So we use a dash

I already sent a patch doing this same thing, but I missed some

Following what appears to be the predominant style, format
names of commands and commandlines both as `teletype text`.

synopsis line, and add a comma or two where it seems appropriate.

Since the git-* commands are not installed in $(bindir), using
"git-command <parameters>" in examples in the documentation is
not a good idea. On the other hand, it is nice to be able to
refer to each command using one hyphenated word. (There is no
escaping it, anyway: man page names cannot have spaces in them.)
This patch retains the dash in naming an operation, command,
program, process, or action. Complete command lines that can
be entered at a shell (i.e., without options omitted) are
made to use the dashless form.
The changes consist only of replacing some spaces with hyphens
and vice versa. After a "s/ /-/g", the unpatched and patched
versions are identical.
