2006-01-15show-branch: --current includes the current branch.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-2/+11
With this, the command includes the current branch to the list of revs to be shown when it is not given on the command line. This is handy to use in the configuration file like this: [showbranch] default = --current default = heads/* ; primary branches, not topics under ; subdirectories Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2006-01-15show-branch: make the current branch and merge commits stand out.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-7/+8
This changes the character used to mark the commits that is on the branch from '+' to '*' for the current branch, to make it stand out. Also we show '-' for merge commits. When you have a handful branches with relatively long diversion, it is easier to see which one is the current branch this way. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

2005-12-04show-branch: allow glob pattern to name branches to show.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-6/+17
With this, you can say "git-show-branch topic/* master" to show all the topic branches you have under .git/refs/heads/topic/ and your master branch. Another example is "git-show-branch --list v1.0*" to show all the v1.0 tags. You can disambiguate by saying "heads/topic/*" to show only topic branches if you have tags under .git/refs/tags/topic/ as well. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2005-10-11show-branch: optionally use unique prefix as name.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-16/+10
git-show-branch acquires two new options. --sha1-name to name commits using the unique prefix of their object names, and --no-name to not to show names at all. This was outlined in <7vk6gpyuyr.fsf@assigned-by-dhcp.cox.net> 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>
2005-09-09show-branch: --list and --independentLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-2/+14
The --list option is what 'git branch' without parameter should have been; it shows the one-line commit message for each branch name. The --independent option is used to filter out commits that can be reachable from other commits, to make detection of fast forward condition in multi-head merge easier.

2005-09-07Big tool rename.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-1/+1
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.

2005-08-22Clean-up output from "git show-branch" and document it.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+107
When showing only one branch a lot of default output becomes redundant, so clean it up a bit, and document what is shown. Retire the earlier implementation "git-show-branches-script". Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
