2007-07-08Document custom hunk header selectionLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-4/+51
Since the external interface seems to have stabilized for this new feature, let's document it properly. Acked-by: Johannes Schindelin <Johannes.Schindelin@gmx.de> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2007-05-14Use $Id$ as the ident attribute keyword rather than $ident$ to be consistent ↵Libravatar Andy Parkins1-3/+3
with other VCSs $Id$ is present already in SVN and CVS; it would mean that people converting their existing repositories won't have to make any changes to the source files should they want to make use of the ident attribute. Given that it's a feature that's meant to calm those very people, it seems obtuse to make them edit every file just to make use of it. I think that bzr uses $Id$; Mercurial has examples hooks for $Id$; monotone has $Id$ on its wishlist. I can't think of a good reason not to stick with the de-facto standard and call ours $Id$ instead of $ident$.

2007-04-24Add 'filter' attribute and external filter driver definition.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+39
The interface is similar to the custom low-level merge drivers. First you configure your filter driver by defining 'filter.<name>.*' variables in the configuration. filter.<name>.clean filter command to run upon checkin filter.<name>.smudge filter command to run upon checkout Then you assign filter attribute to each path, whose name matches the custom filter driver's name. Example: (in .gitattributes) *.c filter=indent (in config) [filter "indent"] clean = indent smudge = cat Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2007-04-24Add 'ident' conversion.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-2/+29
The 'ident' attribute set to path squashes "$ident:<any bytes except dollor sign>$" to "$ident$" upon checkin, and expands it to "$ident: <blob SHA-1> $" upon checkout. As we have two conversions that affect checkin/checkout paths, clarify how they interact with each other. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
