2008-12-12mergetool: Don't keep temporary merge files unless told toLibravatar Charles Bailey1-0/+7
This changes git mergetool to remove the temporary files used to invoke the merge tool even if it returns non-zero. This also adds a configuration option (mergetool.keepTemporaries) to retain the previous behaviour if desired.

2008-11-14Add -y/--no-prompt option to mergetoolLibravatar Charles Bailey2-1/+13
This option lets git mergetool invoke the conflict resolution program without waiting for a user prompt each time.

2008-11-11git push: Interpret $GIT_DIR/branches in a Cogito compatible wayLibravatar Martin Koegler1-5/+14
Current git versions ignore everything after # (called <head> in the following) when pushing. Older versions (before cf818348f1ab57), interpret #<head> as part of the URL, which make git bail out. As branches origin from Cogito, it is the best to correct this by using the behaviour of cg-push, that is to push HEAD to remote refs/heads/<head>.

2008-11-09receive-pack: detect push to current branch of non-bare repoLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+9
Pushing into the currently checked out branch of a non-bare repository can be dangerous; the HEAD then loses sync with the index and working tree, and it looks in the receiving repo as if the pushed changes have been reverted in the index (since they were never there in the first place). This patch adds a safety valve that checks for this condition and either generates a warning or denies the update. We trigger the check only on a non-bare repository, since a bare repo does not have a working tree (and in fact, pushing to the HEAD branch is a common workflow for publishing repositories). The behavior is configurable via receive.denyCurrentBranch, defaulting to "warn" so as not to break existing setups (though it may, after a deprecation period, switch to "refuse" by default). For users who know what they are doing and want to silence the warning (e.g., because they have a post-receive hook that reconciles the HEAD and working tree), they can turn off the warning by setting it to false or "ignore".

Even long timers seem to have missed that "format-patch -1 $commit" is a much simpler and more obvious way to say "format-patch $commit^..$commit" from the current documentation (and an example "format-patch -3 $commit" to get three patches).

Occasionally, it may be useful to prevent branches from getting deleted from a centralized repository, particularly when no administrative access to the server is available to undo it via reflog. It also makes receive.denyNonFastForwards more useful if it is used for access control since it prevents force-updating by deleting and re-creating a ref.

This allows hooks like pre-receive to look at the client's IP address. Of course the IP address can't be used to get strong security; git-daemon isn't the right thing to use if you need that. However, basic IP address checking can be good enough in some situations. REMOTE_ADDR is the same environment variable used to communicate the client's address to CGI scripts.

Previously, branches were listed on a single line in each section. But if there are many branches, then horizontal, line-wrapped lists are very inconvenient to scan for a human. This makes the lists vertical, i.e one branch per line is printed. Since "git remote" is porcelain, we can easily make this backwards-incompatible change.
