* fg/submodule-ff-check-before-push:
push: Don't push a repository with unpushed submodules
|
|
When working with submodules it is easy to forget to push a
submodule to the server but pushing a super-project that
contains a commit for that submodule. The result is that the
superproject points at a submodule commit that is not available
on the server.
This adds the option --recurse-submodules=check to push. When
using this option git will check that all submodule commits that
are about to be pushed are present on a remote of the submodule.
To be able to use a combined diff, disabling a diff callback has
been removed from combined-diff.c.

Many examples of git command invocation are given in asciidoc listing
blocks, which makes them monospaced and avoids further interpretation of
special characters. Some manpages make a list of examples, like:
git foo::
Run git foo.
git foo -q::
Use the "-q" option.
to quickly show many variants. However, they can sometimes be hard to
read, because they are shown in a proportional-width font (so, for
example, seeing the difference between "-- foo" and "--foo" can be
difficult).
This patch puts all such examples into backticks, which gives the
equivalent formatting to a listing block (i.e., monospaced and without
character interpretation).
As a bonus, this also fixes an example in the git-push manpage, in which
"git push origin :::" was accidentally considered a newly-indented list,
and not a list item with "git push origin :" in it.

The point of these sections is generally to:
1. Give credit where it is due.
2. Give the reader an idea of where to ask questions or
file bug reports.
But they don't do a good job of either case. For (1), they
are out of date and incomplete. A much more accurate answer
can be gotten through shortlog or blame. For (2), the
correct contact point is generally git@vger, and even if you
wanted to cc the contact point, the out-of-date and
incomplete fields mean you're likely sending to somebody
useless.
So let's drop the fields entirely from all manpages except
git(1) itself. We already point people to the mailing list
for bug reports there, and we can update the Authors section
to give credit to the major contributors and point to
shortlog and blame for more information.
Each page has a "This is part of git" footer, so people can
follow that to the main git manpage.

Currently, whenever we need documentation for revisions and ranges, we
link to the git-rev-parse man page, i.e. a plumbing man page, which has
this along with the documentation of all rev-parse modes.
Link to the new gitrevisions man page instead in all cases except
- when the actual git-rev-parse command is referred to or
- in very technical context (git-send-pack).

It is misleading to say that we pull refs from $GIT_DIR/refs/*, because we
may also consult the packed refs mechanism. These days we tend to treat
the "refs hierarchy" as more of an abstract namespace that happens to be
represented as $GIT_DIR/refs. At best, this is a minor inaccuracy, but at
worst it can confuse users who then look in $GIT_DIR/refs and find that it
is missing some of the refs they expected to see.
This patch drops most uses of "$GIT_DIR/refs/*", changing them into just
"refs/*", under the assumption that users can handle the concept of an
abstract refs namespace. There are a few things to note:
- most cases just dropped the $GIT_DIR/ portion. But for cases where
that left _just_ the word "refs", I changed it to "refs/" to help
indicate that it was a hierarchy. I didn't do the same for longer
paths (e.g., "refs/heads" remained, instead of becoming
"refs/heads/").
- in some cases, no change was made, as the text was explicitly about
unpacked refs (e.g., the discussion in git-pack-refs).
- In some cases it made sense instead to note the existence of packed
refs (e.g., in check-ref-format and rev-parse).

The documentation was quite inconsistent when spelling 'git cmd' if it
only refers to the program, not to some specific invocation syntax:
both 'git-cmd' and 'git cmd' spellings exist.
The current trend goes towards dashless forms, and there is precedent
in 647ac70 (git-svn.txt: stop using dash-form of commands.,
2009-07-07) to actively eliminate the dashed variants.
Replace 'git-cmd' with 'git cmd' throughout, except where git-shell,
git-cvsserver, git-upload-pack, git-receive-pack, and
git-upload-archive are concerned, because those really live in the
$PATH.

Refspecs without a source side have been reported as confusing by many.
As an alternative, this adds support for commands like:
git push origin --delete somebranch
git push origin --delete tag sometag
Specifically, --delete will prepend a colon to all colon-less refspecs
given on the command line, and will refuse to accept refspecs with
colons to prevent undue confusion.

The refspec format description was a mix of regexp and BNF, making it
very difficult to read. The format was also wrong: it did not show
that each part of a refspec is optional in different situations.

The comment in parentheses is wrong, as one has to leave out both the
colon and <dst>. This situation is covered by the section a few lines
down:
A parameter <ref> without a colon pushes the <ref> from the source
repository to the destination repository under the same name.
So, just remove the parentheses.

I see quite a few pages on k.org site, e.g.
http://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/docs/git-rerere.html
(scroll down to find "After this test merge")
are misformatted to lose teletype text '+' that is followed by a comma,
and turns the following paragraph all typeset in teletype.
This patch seems to fix the issue at the site (meaning, with the
particular vintage of asciidoc and docbook toolchain), without breaking
things with the version I have at my primary development machine, but
wider testing is very much appreciated.
After this patch,

The names of git commands are not meant to be entered at the

}
for i in git*.txt config.txt diff*.txt blame*.txt fetch*.txt i18n.txt \

Following what appears to be the predominant style, format
names of commands and commandlines both as `teletype text`.

synopsis line, and add a comma or two where it seems appropriate.

Since the git-* commands are not installed in $(bindir), using
"git-command <parameters>" in examples in the documentation is
not a good idea. On the other hand, it is nice to be able to
refer to each command using one hyphenated word. (There is no
escaping it, anyway: man page names cannot have spaces in them.)
This patch retains the dash in naming an operation, command,
program, process, or action. Complete command lines that can
be entered at a shell (i.e., without options omitted) are
made to use the dashless form.
The changes consist only of replacing some spaces with hyphens
and vice versa. After a "s/ /-/g", the unpatched and patched
versions are identical.

This option behaves more like:
