2016-07-25Merge branch 'jc/renormalize-merge-kill-safer-crlf'Libravatar Junio C Hamano2-13/+14
"git merge" with renormalization did not work well with merge-recursive, due to "safer crlf" conversion kicking in when it shouldn't. * jc/renormalize-merge-kill-safer-crlf: merge: avoid "safer crlf" during recording of merge results convert: unify the "auto" handling of CRLF

2016-07-06convert: unify the "auto" handling of CRLFLibravatar Torsten Bögershausen2-13/+14
Before this change, $ echo "* text=auto" >.gitattributes $ echo "* eol=crlf" >>.gitattributes would have the same effect as $ echo "* text" >.gitattributes $ git config core.eol crlf Since the 'eol' attribute had higher priority than 'text=auto', this may corrupt binary files and is not what most users expect to happen. Make the 'eol' attribute to obey 'text=auto' and now $ echo "* text=auto" >.gitattributes $ echo "* eol=crlf" >>.gitattributes behaves the same as $ echo "* text=auto" >.gitattributes $ git config core.eol crlf In other words, $ echo "* text=auto eol=crlf" >.gitattributes has the same effect as $ git config core.autocrlf true and $ echo "* text=auto eol=lf" >.gitattributes has the same effect as $ git config core.autocrlf input Signed-off-by: Torsten Bögershausen <tboegi@web.de> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2016-07-06fetch: reduce duplicate in ref update status lines with placeholderLibravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy2-0/+10
In the "remote -> local" line, if either ref is a substring of the other, the common part in the other string is replaced with "*". For example abc -> origin/abc refs/pull/123/head -> pull/123 become abc -> origin/* refs/*/head -> pull/123 Activated with fetch.output=compact. For the record, this output is not perfect. A single giant ref can push all refs very far to the right and likely be wrapped around. We may have a few options: - exclude these long lines smarter - break the line after "->", exclude it from column width calculation - implement a new format, { -> origin/}foo, which makes the problem go away at the cost of a bit harder to read - reverse all the arrows so we have "* <- looong-ref", again still hard to read.

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).

2016-06-28doc: typeset short command-line options as literalLibravatar Matthieu Moy23-52/+52
It was common in our documentation to surround short option names with forward quotes, which renders as italic in HTML. Instead, use backquotes which renders as monospace. This is one more step toward conformance to Documentation/CodingGuidelines.

This documents the ref update status of fetch. The structure of this output is defined in [1]. The ouput content is refined a bit in [2] [3] [4]. This patch is a copy from git-push.txt, modified a bit because the flag '-' means different things in push (delete) and fetch (tag update). PS. For code archaeologists, the discussion mentioned in [1] is probably [5].
