2018-05-08merge: add merge.renames config settingLibravatar Ben Peart1-0/+5
Add the ability to control rename detection for merge via a config setting. This setting behaves the same and defaults to the value of diff.renames but only applies to merge.

2018-05-08merge: update documentation for {merge,diff}.renameLimitLibravatar Ben Peart1-1/+2

2017-12-12merge: add config option for verifySignaturesLibravatar Hans Jerry Illikainen1-0/+4
git merge --verify-signatures can be used to verify that the tip commit of the branch being merged in is properly signed, but it's cumbersome to have to specify that every time. Add a configuration option that enables this behaviour by default, which can be overridden by --no-verify-signatures.

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).

2015-06-16Merge branch 'sg/merge-summary-config'Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-5/+1
Doc updates. * sg/merge-summary-config: Documentation: include 'merge.branchdesc' for merge and config as well
2015-05-28Documentation: include 'merge.branchdesc' for merge and config as wellLibravatar SZEDER Gábor1-5/+1
'merge.branchdesc' is only mentioned in the docs of 'git fmt-merge-msg'. The description of 'merge.log' is already duplicated between 'merge-config.txt' and 'git-fmt-merge-msg.txt'; instead of duplicating the description of another config variable, extract the descriptions of both of these variables from 'git-fmt-merge-msg.txt' into a separate file and include it there and in 'merge-config.txt'. Leave 'merge.summary' only in git-fmt-merge-msg.txt, as it is marked as deprecated. Signed-off-by: SZEDER Gábor <szeder@ira.uka.de> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

"git merge" without specifying any commit is a no-op by default.

2010-07-02Avoid conflicts when merging branches with mixed normalizationLibravatar Eyvind Bernhardsen1-0/+10
Currently, merging across changes in line ending normalization is painful since files containing CRLF will conflict with normalized files, even if the only difference between the two versions is the line endings. Additionally, any "real" merge conflicts that exist are obscured because every line in the file has a conflict. Assume you start out with a repo that has a lot of text files with CRLF checked in (A): o---C / \ A---B---D B: Add "* text=auto" to .gitattributes and normalize all files to LF-only C: Modify some of the text files D: Try to merge C You will get a ridiculous number of LF/CRLF conflicts when trying to merge C into D, since the repository contents for C are "wrong" wrt the new .gitattributes file. Fix ll-merge so that the "base", "theirs" and "ours" stages are passed through convert_to_worktree() and convert_to_git() before a three-way merge. This ensures that all three stages are normalized in the same way, removing from consideration differences that are only due to normalization. This feature is optional for now since it changes a low-level mechanism and is not necessary for the majority of users. The "merge.renormalize" config variable enables it.

2008-05-03add merge.renamelimit config optionLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+5
The point of rename limiting is to bound the amount of time we spend figuring out inexact renames. Currently we use a single value, diff.renamelimit, for all situations. However, it is probably the case that a user is willing to spend more time finding renames during a merge than they are while looking at git-log. This patch provides a way of setting those values separately (though for backwards compatibility, merge still falls back on the diff renamelimit).

2008-04-12fmt-merge-msg: add '--(no-)log' options and 'merge.log' config variableLibravatar SZEDER Gábor1-1/+1
These are new synonyms to the '--(no-)summary' option and the 'merge.summary' config variable, but are consistent with the soon to be added 'merge --(no-)log' options. The 'merge.summary' config variable and '--(no-)summary' options are still accepted, but are advertised to be removed in the future. 'merge.log' takes precedence over 'merge.summary' if they are both set inconsistently. Update documentation and tests accordingly.
