2007-07-22fsck --lost-found: write blob's contents, not their SHA-1Libravatar Johannes Schindelin1-2/+4
When looking for a lost blob, it is much nicer to be able to grep through .git/lost-found/other/* than to write an inefficient loop over the file names. So write the contents of the dangling blobs, not their object names. Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2007-07-02git-fsck: add --lost-found optionLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-1/+5
With this option, dangling objects are not only reported, but also written to .git/lost-found/commit/ or .git/lost-found/other/. This option implies '--full' and '--no-reflogs'. 'git fsck --lost-found' is meant as a replacement for git-lost-found. Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2007-06-07War on whitespaceLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-1/+0
This uses "git-apply --whitespace=strip" to fix whitespace errors that have crept in to our source files over time. There are a few files that need to have trailing whitespaces (most notably, test vectors). The results still passes the test, and build result in Documentation/ area is unchanged.

With --verbose, it gets really chatty now. Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2007-04-05Fix lost-found to show commits only referenced by reflogsLibravatar Shawn O. Pearce1-1/+7
Prior to 1.5.0 the git-lost-found utility was useful to locate commits that were not referenced by any ref. These were often amends, or resets, or tips of branches that had been deleted. Being able to locate a 'lost' commit and recover it by creating a new branch was a useful feature in those days. Unfortunately 1.5.0 added the reflogs to the reachability analysis performed by git-fsck, which means that most commits users would consider to be lost are still reachable through a reflog. So most (or all!) commits are reachable, and nothing gets output from git-lost-found. Now git-fsck can be told to ignore reflogs during its reachability analysis, making git-lost-found useful again to locate commits that are no longer referenced by a ref itself, but may still be referenced by a reflog.
