2016-06-28doc: typeset HEAD and variants as literalLibravatar Matthieu Moy1-1/+1
This is an application of the newly added CodingGuidelines to HEAD and variants like FETCH_HEAD. It was obtained with: perl -pi -e "s/'([A-Z_]*HEAD)'/\`\$1\`/g" *.txt Signed-off-by: Matthieu Moy <Matthieu.Moy@imag.fr> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2016-06-28doc: typeset long command-line options as literalLibravatar Matthieu Moy1-4/+4
Similarly to the previous commit, use backquotes instead of forward-quotes, for long options. This was obtained with: perl -pi -e "s/'(--[a-z][a-z=<>-]*)'/\`\$1\`/g" *.txt and manual tweak to remove false positive in ascii-art (o'--o'--o' to describe rewritten history).

2016-06-08doc: change environment variables formatLibravatar Tom Russello1-1/+1
This change GIT_* variables that where in italic style to monospaced font according to the guideline. It was obtained with perl -pi -e "s/\'(GIT_.*?)\'/\`\1\`/g" *.txt One of the main purposes is to stick to the CodingGuidelines as possible so that people writting new documentation by mimicking the existing are more likely to have it right (even if they didn't read the CodingGuidelines).

2015-05-12doc: drop backslash quoting of some curly bracesLibravatar Jeff King1-7/+7
Text like "{foo}" triggers an AsciiDoc attribute; we have to write "\{foo}" to suppress this. But when the "foo" is not a syntactically valid attribute, we can skip the quoting. This makes the source nicer to read, and looks better under Asciidoctor. With AsciiDoc itself, this patch produces no changes.

2014-11-11doc: add some crossrefs between manual pagesLibravatar Max Horn1-0/+6
In particular, git-fast-import and -export link to each other, and gitremote-helpers links to existing remote helpers, and vice versa. Also link to fast-import from the remote helper spec, as this is relevant for remote helpers using the fast-import format.

2014-03-18Merge branch 'fc/transport-helper-fixes'Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+4
Updates transport-helper, fast-import and fast-export to allow the ref mapping and ref deletion in a way similar to the natively supported transports. * fc/transport-helper-fixes: remote-bzr: support the new 'force' option test-hg.sh: tests are now expected to pass transport-helper.c: do not overwrite forced bit transport-helper: check for 'forced update' message transport-helper: add 'force' to 'export' helpers transport-helper: don't update refs in dry-run transport-helper: mismerge fix

2013-09-03transport-helper: add no-private-update capabilityLibravatar Matthieu Moy1-0/+5
Since 664059fb (transport-helper: update remote helper namespace, 2013-04-17), a 'push' operation on a remote helper updates the private ref by default. This is often a good thing, but it can also be desirable to disable this update to force the next 'pull' to re-import the pushed revisions. Allow remote-helpers to disable the automatic update by introducing a new capability. Signed-off-by: Matthieu Moy <Matthieu.Moy@imag.fr> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

This is an extension of c6807a4 (clone: open a shortcut for connectivity check - 2013-05-26) to reduce the cost of connectivity check at clone time, this time with smart http protocol. Signed-off-by: Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy <pclouds@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

Update transport helper to report errors and maintain ref hierarchy used to keep track of remote helper state better. * fc/transport-helper-error-reporting: transport-helper: fix remote helper namespace regression test: remote-helper: add missing and t5801: "VAR=VAL shell_func args" is forbidden transport-helper: update remote helper namespace transport-helper: trivial code shuffle transport-helper: warn when refspec is not used transport-helper: clarify pushing without refspecs transport-helper: update refspec documentation transport-helper: clarify *:* refspec transport-helper: improve push messages transport-helper: mention helper name when it dies transport-helper: report errors properly
2013-04-17transport-helper: clarify pushing without refspecsLibravatar Felipe Contreras1-2/+2
This has never worked, since it's inception the code simply skips all the refs, essentially telling fast-export to do nothing. Let's at least tell the user what's going on. Signed-off-by: Felipe Contreras <felipe.contreras@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2013-04-17transport-helper: update refspec documentationLibravatar Felipe Contreras1-5/+5
The refspec capability is not only used by 'import', also by 'export', and it's recommended in both. Signed-off-by: Felipe Contreras <felipe.contreras@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2013-04-17transport-helper: clarify *:* refspecLibravatar Felipe Contreras1-2/+2
The *:* refspec doesn't work, and never has, clarify the code and documentation to reflect that. This in effect reverts commit 9e7673e (gitremote-helpers(1): clarify refspec behaviour). Signed-off-by: Felipe Contreras <felipe.contreras@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2013-04-15transport-helper: add 'signed-tags' capabilityLibravatar John Keeping1-0/+4
This allows a remote helper using the 'export' protocol to specify that it supports signed tags, changing the handing from 'warn-strip' to 'verbatim'. Signed-off-by: John Keeping <john@keeping.me.uk> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2013-04-07gitremote-helpers(1): clarify refspec behaviourLibravatar John Keeping1-2/+2
The documentation says that "If no 'refspec' capability is advertised, there is an implied `refspec *:*`" but this is only the case for the "import" command. Since there is a comment in transport-helper.c indicating that this default is for historical reasons, change the documentation to clarify that a refspec should always be specified.

2013-02-07Merge branch 'jk/remote-helpers-doc'Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+423
"git help remote-helpers" did not work; 'remote-helpers' is not a subcommand name but a concept, so its documentation should have been in gitremote-helpers, not git-remote-helpers. * jk/remote-helpers-doc: Rename {git- => git}remote-helpers.txt
2013-02-01Rename {git- => git}remote-helpers.txtLibravatar John Keeping1-0/+423
When looking up a topic via "git help <topic>", git-help prepends "git-" to topics that are the names of commands (either builtin or found on the path) and "git" (no hyphen) to any other topic name. "git-remote-helpers" is not the name of a command, so "git help remote-helpers" looks for "gitremote-helpers" and does not find it. Fix this by renaming "git-remote-helpers.txt" to "gitremote-helpers.txt". Signed-off-by: John Keeping <john@keeping.me.uk> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
