2007-01-21Revert "prune: --grace=time"Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-8/+1
This reverts commit 9b088c4e394df84232cfd37aea78349a495b09c1. Protecting 'mature' objects does not make it any safer. We should admit that git-prune is inherently unsafe when run in parallel with other operations without involving unwarranted locking overhead, and with the latest git, even rebase and reset would not immediately create crufts anyway.
2007-01-20prune: --grace=timeLibravatar Matthias Lederhofer1-1/+8
This option gives grace period to objects that are unreachable from the refs from getting pruned. The default value is 24 hours and may be changed using gc.prunegrace. Signed-off-by: Matthias Lederhofer <matled@gmx.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2006-05-05Fix up docs where "--" isn't displayed correctly.Libravatar sean1-1/+1
A bare "--" doesn't show up in man or html pages correctly as two individual dashes unless backslashed as \-- in the asciidoc source. Note, no backslash is needed inside a literal block. Signed-off-by: Sean Estabrooks <seanlkml@sympatico.ca> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2005-12-08git-prune: never lose objects reachable from our refs.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-18/+9
Explicit <head> arguments to git-prune replaces, instead of extends, the list of heads used for reachability analysis by fsck-objects. By giving a subset of heads by mistake, objects reachable only from other heads can be removed, resulting in a corrupted repository. This commit stops replacing the list of heads, and makes the command line arguments to add to them instead for safety. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2005-12-08Documentation: git-pruneLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-1/+29
Not replacing but always including our own refs may be more desirable (and unarguably much safer), but at the same time I have a suspicion that that might be forbidding a useful usage I haven't thought of, so... Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

2005-09-20[PATCH] Documentation: Update all files to use the new gitlink: macroLibravatar Sergey Vlasov1-1/+1
The replacement was performed automatically by these commands: perl -pi -e 's/link:(git.+)\.html\[\1\]/gitlink:$1\[1\]/g' \ README Documentation/*.txt perl -pi -e 's/link:git\.html\[git\]/gitlink:git\[7\]/g' \ README Documentation/*.txt Signed-off-by: Sergey Vlasov <vsu@altlinux.ru> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2005-09-07Big tool rename.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+43
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.
