2007-02-05git-for-each-ref doesn't return "the bit after $GIT_DIR/refs"Libravatar Andy Parkins1-1/+1
The documentation for git-for-each-ref said that the refname variable would return "the part after $GIT_DIR/refs/", which isn't true. Signed-off-by: Andy Parkins <andyparkins@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2007-01-28Teach for-each-ref about a little language called Tcl.Libravatar Shawn O. Pearce1-2/+2
Love it or hate it, some people actually still program in Tcl. Some of those programs are meant for interfacing with Git. Programs such as gitk and git-gui. It may be useful to have Tcl-safe output available from for-each-ref, just like shell, Perl and Python already enjoy. Thanks to Sergey Vlasov for pointing out the horrible flaws in the first and second version of this patch, and steering me in the right direction for Tcl value quoting. Signed-off-by: Shawn O.

2006-10-28Documentation: fix git-format-patch mark-up and link it from git.txtLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-2/+2
Two asterisks the SYNOPSIS section were mistaken as emphasis, and the latter backtick in "`<key>`s" were not recognized as closing backtick. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2006-10-28Documentation: Update information about <format> in git-for-each-refLibravatar Jakub Narebski1-1/+5
Update information about value of <format> used when it is left unspecified. Add information about `%%` and `%xx` interpolation (URL encoding). Signed-off-by: Jakub Narebski <jnareb@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2006-09-21git-for-each-ref: improve the documentation on scripting modesLibravatar Andy Whitcroft1-4/+21
When reading the synopsis for git-for-each-ref it is easy to miss the obvious power of --shell and family. Call this feature out in the primary paragragh. Also add more description to the examples to indicate which features we are demonstrating. Finally add a very simple eval based example in addition to the very complex one to give a gentler introduction.

2006-09-16Add git-for-each-ref: helper for language bindingsLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+164
This adds a new command, git-for-each-ref. You can have it iterate over refs and have it output various aspects of the objects they refer to. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
