2007-08-14Add --log-size to git log to print message sizeLibravatar Marco Costalba1-0/+7
With this option git-log prints log message size just before the corresponding message. Porcelain tools could use this to speedup parsing of git-log output. Note that size refers to log message only. If also patch content is shown its size is not included. In case it is not possible to know the size upfront size value is set to zero.

2007-07-12Documentation for git-log --followLibravatar Steven Walter1-0/+9
After vainly searching the Documentation for how to follow renames, I finally broke down and grepped the source. It would appear that Linus didn't add write and docs for this feature when he wrote it. The following patch rectifies that, hopefully sparing future users from resorting to the source code.

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.

2007-05-13Documentation: Split description of pretty formats of commit logLibravatar Jakub Narebski1-1/+4
Split description of pretty formats into list of pretty options (--pretty and --encoding) in new file Documentation/pretty-options.txt and description of formats itself as a separate "PRETTY FORMATS" section in pretty-formats.txt While at it correct formatting a bit, to be better laid out in the resulting manpages: git-rev-list(1), git-show(1), git-log(1) and git-diff-tree(1). Those manpages now include pretty options in the same place as it was before, and description of formats just after all options.

2007-01-17Refer users to git-rev-parse for revision specification syntax.Libravatar Shawn O. Pearce1-0/+3
The revision specification syntax (sometimes referred to as SHA1-expressions) is accepted almost everywhere in Git by almost every tool. Unfortunately it is only documented in git-rev-parse.txt, and most users don't know to look there. Signed-off-by: Shawn O. Pearce <spearce@spearce.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2007-01-14git log documentation: teach -<n> form.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-1/+1

2006-11-22Move --pretty options into Documentation/pretty-formats.txtLibravatar Chris Riddoch1-2/+2
Asciidoc-include it into the manuals for programs that use the --pretty command-line option, for consistency among the docs. This describes all the pretty-formats currently listed in the cmit_fmt enum in commit.h, and also briefly describes the presence and format of the 'Merge: ' line in some pretty formats. There's a hedge that limiting your view of history can affect what goes in the Merge: line, and that --abbrev/--no-abbrev do nothing to the 'raw' format.

2005-10-30Add examples for git-log documentation and others.Libravatar Linus Torvalds1-0/+18
I don't think people really follow the links or think very abstractly at all in the first place. So I was thinking more of some explicit examples. I actually think every command should have an example in the man-page, and hey, here's a patch to start things off. Of course, I'm not exactly "Mr Documentation", and I don't know that this is the prettiest way to do this, but I checked that the resulting html and man-page seems at least reasonable. And hey, if the examples look like each other, that's just because I'm also not "Mr Imagination". Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

2005-09-07Big tool rename.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+45
As promised, this is the "big tool rename" patch. The primary differences since 0.99.6 are: (1) git-*-script are no more. The commands installed do not have any such suffix so users do not have to remember if something is implemented as a shell script or not. (2) Many command names with 'cache' in them are renamed with 'index' if that is what they mean. There are backward compatibility symblic links so that you and Porcelains can keep using the old names, but the backward compatibility support is expected to be removed in the near future.
