2008-01-09Change git-gc documentation to reflect gc.packrefs implementation.Libravatar Florian La Roche1-3/+3
56752391a8c0c591853b276e4fa0b45c34ced181 (Make "git gc" pack all refs by default) changed the default of gc.packrefs to true, to pack all refs by default in any repository. IOW, the users need to disable it explicitly if they want to by setting the config variable, since 1.5.3. However, we forgot to update the documentation. This fixes it.

2008-01-06Documentation: rename gitlink macro to linkgitLibravatar Dan McGee1-7/+7
Between AsciiDoc 8.2.2 and 8.2.3, the following change was made to the stock Asciidoc configuration: @@ -149,7 +153,10 @@ # Inline macros. # Backslash prefix required for escape processing. # (?s) re flag for line spanning. -(?su)[\\]?(?P<name>\w(\w|-)*?):(?P<target>\S*?)(\[(?P<attrlist>.*?)\])= + +# Explicit so they can be nested. +(?su)[\\]?(?P<name>(http|https|ftp|file|mailto|callto|image|link)):(?P<target>\S*?)(\[(?P<attrlist>.*?)\])= + # Anchor: [[[id]]]. Bibliographic anchor. (?su)[\\]?\[\[\[(?P<attrlist>[\w][\w-]*?)\]\]\]=anchor3 # Anchor: [[id,xreflabel]] This default regex now matches explicit values, and unfortunately in this case gitlink was being matched by just 'link', causing the wrong inline macro template to be applied. By renaming the macro, we can avoid being matched by the wrong regex. Signed-off-by: Dan McGee <dpmcgee@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2007-10-18Documentation/git-gc: improve description of --autoLibravatar Jeff King1-12/+17
This patch tries to make the description of --auto a little more clear for new users, especially those referred by the "git-gc --auto" notification message. It also cleans up some grammatical errors and typos in the original description, as well as rewording for clarity. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Shawn O.

2007-10-18Documentation/git-gc: explain --auto in descriptionLibravatar Jeff King1-1/+2
Now that git-gc --auto tells the user to look at the man page, it makes sense to mention the auto behavior near the top (since this is likely to be most users' first exposure to git-gc). Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Shawn O. Pearce <spearce@spearce.org>
2007-09-17git-gc --auto: run "repack -A -d -l" as necessary.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-1/+6
This teaches "git-gc --auto" to consolidate many packs into one without losing unreachable objects in them by using "repack -A" when there are too many packfiles that are not marked with *.keep in the repository. gc.autopacklimit configuration can be used to set the maximum number of packs a repository is allowed to have before this mechanism kicks in.

This documents the auto-packing of loose objects performed by git-gc --auto. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2007-05-10Add --aggressive option to 'git gc'Libravatar Theodore Tso1-1/+15
This option causes 'git gc' to more aggressively optimize the repository at the cost of taking much more wall clock and CPU time. Today this option causes git-pack-objects to use --no-use-delta option, and it allows the --window parameter to be set via the gc.aggressiveWindow configuration parameter.

2007-02-13git-gc: run pack-refs by default unless the repo is bareLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-0/+4
The config variable gc.packrefs is tristate now: "true", "false" and "notbare", where "notbare" is the default. Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <Johannes.Schindelin@gmx.de> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2007-01-21git-gc: do not run git-prune by default.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-1/+16
git-prune is not safe when run uncontrolled in parallel while other git operations are creating new objects. To avoid mistakes, do not run git-prune by default from git-gc. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

2006-12-27Create 'git gc' to perform common maintenance operations.Libravatar Shawn O. Pearce1-0/+64
Junio asked for a 'git gc' utility which users can execute on a regular basis to perform basic repository actions such as: * pack-refs --prune * reflog expire * repack -a -d * prune * rerere gc So here is a command which does exactly that. The parameters fed to reflog's expire subcommand can be chosen by the user by setting configuration options in .git/config (or ~/.gitconfig), as users may want different expiration windows for each repository but shouldn't be bothered to remember what they are all of the time.
