2006-09-25git-archive: update documentationLibravatar Franck Bui-Huu1-0/+3
This patch documents zip backend options. It also adds git-archive command into the main git manual page. Signed-off-by: Franck Bui-Huu <vagabon.xyz@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2006-09-24Remove upload-tar and make git-tar-tree a thin wrapper to git-archiveLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-4/+0
The command now issues a big deprecation warning message and runs git-archive command with appropriate arguments. git-tar-tree $tree_ish $base always forces $base to be the leading directory name, so the --prefix parameter passed internally to git-archive is a slash appended to it, i.e. "--prefix=$base/".

2006-07-25git wrapper: add --git-dir=<path> and --bare optionsLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-1/+11
With this, you can say git --bare repack -a -d inside a bare repository, and it will actually work. While at it, also move the --version, --help and --exec-path options to the handle_options() function. While at documenting the new options, also document the --paginate option.

2006-06-21Retire git-clone-packLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-5/+1
The program is not used by git-clone since git-fetch-pack was extended to allow its caller do what git-clone-pack alone did, and git-clone was updated to use it. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

2006-04-02Documentation: revise top of git man pageLibravatar J. Bruce Fields1-48/+41
I'm afraid I'll be accused of trying to suck all the jokes and the personality out of the git documentation. I'm not! Really! That said, "man git" is one of the first things a new user is likely try, and it seems a little cruel to start off with a somewhat obscure joke about the architecture of git. So instead I'm trying for a relatively straightforward description of what git does, and what features distinguish it from other systems, together with immediate links to introductory documentation. I also did some minor reorganization in an attempt to clarify the classification of commands. And revised a bit for conciseness (as is obvious from the diffstat--hopefully I didn't cut anything important). Signed-off-by: J.

2006-02-06git-rerere: reuse recorded resolve.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+3
In a workflow that employs relatively long lived topic branches, the developer sometimes needs to resolve the same conflict over and over again until the topic branches are done (either merged to the "release" branch, or sent out and accepted upstream). This commit introduces a new command, "git rerere", to help this process by recording the conflicted automerge results and corresponding hand-resolve results on the initial manual merge, and later by noticing the same conflicted automerge and applying the previously recorded hand resolution using three-way merge.

2005-12-19Remove "octopus".Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-3/+0
We still advertise "git resolve" as a standalone command, but never "git octopus", so nobody should be using it and it is safe to retire it. The functionality is still available as a strategy backend. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2005-12-13Documentation: not learning core git commands.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-21/+30
The initial section of tutorial was too heavy on internal workings for the first-time readers, so rewrite the introductory section of git(7) to start with "not learning core git commands" section and refer them to README to grasp the basic concepts, then Everyday to give overview with task/role oriented examples for minimum set of commands, and finally the tutorial. Also add to existing note in the tutorial that many too technical descriptions can be skipped by a casual reader. I initially started to review the tutorial, with the objective of ripping out the detailed technical information altogether, but I found that the level of details in the initial couple of sections that talk about refs and the object database in a hands-on fashion was about rigth, and left all of them there. I feel that reading about fsck-index and repack is too abstract without being aware of these directories and files. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

2005-11-15git --help COMMAND brings up the git-COMMAND man-page.Libravatar Andreas Ericsson1-0/+2
It's by design a bit stupid (matching ^git rather than ^git-), so as to work with 'gitk' and 'git' as well. Signed-off-by: Andreas Ericsson <ae@op5.se> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

The program 'git' now has --exec-path which needs explaining. Renamed old "DESCRIPTION" to "CORE GIT COMMANDS" to make room for "OPTIONS" while following follow some sort of convention.

2005-11-13Rename lost+found to lost-found.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-1/+1
Because we use "lost-found" as the directory name to hold dangling object names, it is confusing to call the command git-lost+found, although it makes sense and is even cute ;-). Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
