2005-10-10svn import: Add a loop limit optionLibravatar Matthias Urlichs1-1/+10
The svn library has a serious memory leak. Added a new option (-l NUM) which causes git-svnimport to exit cleanly after fetching that many changes, in order to . Signed-Off-By: Matthias Urlichs <smurf@smurf.noris.de>
2005-10-10svn import: skip initial revisionsLibravatar Matthias Urlichs1-1/+6
Add a flag to skip initial revisions: some SVN repositories have initial setup cruft in their logs which we might want to ignore. Signed-Off-By: Matthias Urlichs <smurf@smurf.noris.de>
2005-10-10New: git-svnimport.Libravatar Matthias Urlichs1-0/+99
As the name suggests, this script imports from SVN. Only "normal" SVN repositories (with single trunk/, branches/, and tags/ subdrectories) are supported. Incremental imports require preserving the file .git/svn2git. Signed-Off-by: Matthias Urlichs <smurf@smurf.noris.de>
2005-10-04git-apply: retire unused/unimplemented --no-merge flag.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-6/+1
The original plan was to do 3-way merge between local working tree, index and the patch being applied, but that was never implemented. Retire the flag to control its behaviour. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

2005-10-03[PATCH] Random documentation fixesLibravatar Jonas Fonseca26-192/+209
The fixes focuses on improving the HTML output. Most noteworthy: - Fix the Makefile to also make various *.html files depend on included files. - Consistently use 'NOTE: ...' instead of '[ ... ]' for additional info. - Fix ending '::' for description lists in OPTION section etc. - Fix paragraphs in description lists ending up as preformated text. - Always use listingblocks (preformatted text wrapped in lines with -----) for examples that span empty lines, so they are put in only one HTML block. - Use '1.' instead of '(1)' for numbered lists. - Fix linking to other GIT docs. - git-rev-list.txt: put option descriptions in an OPTION section.

2005-10-02[PATCH] Update git-clone documentationLibravatar Eric W. Biederman1-1/+14
The documentation for git-clone is behind the actual command. I have been getting tired of reading the shell script to see what the arguments are so here is an update of the actual documentation. Signed-off-by: Eric Biederman <ebiederman@xmission.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2005-10-02[PATCH] Teach git-ls-files about '--' to denote end of options.Libravatar Fredrik Kuivinen1-1/+8
Useful if you have a file whose name starts with a dash. Signed-off-by: Fredrik Kuivinen <freku045@student.liu.se> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

2005-09-24Diff: --name-status output format.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-2/+2
The new output format shows only the status letter and paths. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2005-09-24Diff: -l<num> to limit rename/copy detection.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+7
When many paths are modified, rename detection takes a lot of time. The new option -l<num> can be used to disable rename detection when more than <num> paths are possibly created as renames. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2005-09-24[PATCH] Finish documenting trivial merge rulesLibravatar Daniel Barkalow1-10/+39
Fix missing symbol explanations, a few incorrect cases, and add two-way merge rules. Signed-off-by: Daniel Barkalow <barkalow@iabervon.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2005-09-24[PATCH] git-daemon --syslog to log through syslogLibravatar Petr Baudis1-1/+5
Well, this makes it even more clear that we need the packet reader and friends to use the daemon logging code. :/ Therefore, we at least indicate in the "Disconnect" log message if the child process exitted with an error code or not. Idea by Linus. Signed-off-by: Petr Baudis <pasky@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

Document the best way to show the change introduced by a commit, based on the suggestion by Linus on the list. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2005-09-22[PATCH] Retitle 'inspecting what happened' section.Libravatar Jon Loeliger1-2/+2
In the tutorial, there is a section entitled "Checking it out" that shows how to use diff log and whatchanged to insect some of the repository state. As the phrase "checkout" ususally carries some baggage WRT other revision control mechanism, I suggest that we re-title this section something like "Inspecting Changes".

2005-09-22Retire diff-helper.Libravatar Junio C Hamano3-58/+1
The textual diff generation with built-in '-p' in diff-* brothers has proven to be useful enough that git-diff-helper outlived its usefulness. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2005-09-22Retire rev-tree.Libravatar Junio C Hamano3-93/+2
Some old scripts might still use git-rev-tree, but it really is clearly inferior in every way to git-rev-list that such scripts should be fixed anyway. Fixing them should be pretty easy. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2005-09-22Retire git-export.Libravatar Junio C Hamano2-34/+0
git-export was done as a concept example on how easy it is to export the git data to something else. It's much less powerful than any number of trivial one-liner scripts now, and real exporters would not ever use git-export. It's obviously much less powerful than "git-whatchanged", or just about any combination of git-rev-list + git-diff-tree. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

2005-09-21Fix documentation dependency.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-3/+5
Randal L. Schwartz noticed that 'make install' does not rebuild what is installed. Make the 'install' rule depend on 'man'. I noticed also 'touch' of the source files were used to express include dependencies, which is a no-no. Rewrite it to do dependencies properly, and add missing include dependencies while we are at it. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2005-09-21Update tutorial with Octopus usage.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-1/+103
Making an Octopus is simply a natural extension of merging just one branch into the current branch. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2005-09-20Show modified files in git-ls-filesLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-3/+6
Add -m/--modified to show files that have been modified wrt. the index. [jc: The original came from Brian Gerst on Sep 1st but it only checked if the paths were cache dirty without actually checking the files were modified. I also added the usage string and a new test.] Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2005-09-20Document -i flag to git-read-treeLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-1/+11
Somehow I missed it when we updated read-tree to support the recursive merge strategy. Also -i should require -m as well, which the command did not check. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

Introduce an asciidoc.conf file with the purpose of adding a gitlink: macro which will improve the manpage output. Original cogito patch by Jonas Fonseca <fonseca@diku.dk>; asciidoc.conf from that patch was further enhanced to use the proper DocBook tag <citerefentry> for references to man pages.

2005-09-16[PATCH] PATCH Documentation/git-rev-list.txt typo fixLibravatar Peter Hagervall1-2/+5
An earlier commit causes a mismatch in <emphasis> and <superscript> tags, one way of fixing it is having no more than one caret symbol per line, which is the only solution I found in the asciidoc documentation. Ugly, but it works. [jc: ugly indeed but that is not Peter's fault.] Signed-off-by: Peter Hagervall <hager@cs.umu.se> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

2005-09-11[PATCH] Escape asciidoc's built-in em-dash replacementLibravatar Yasushi SHOJI4-12/+12
AsciiDoc replace '--' with em-dash (&#8212) by default. em-dash looks a lot like a single long dash and it's very confusing when we are talking about command options. Section 21.2.8 'Replacements' of AsciiDoc's User Guide says that a backslash in front of double dash prevent the replacement. This patch does just that.

2005-09-09show-branch: --list and --independentLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-2/+14
The --list option is what 'git branch' without parameter should have been; it shows the one-line commit message for each branch name. The --independent option is used to filter out commits that can be reachable from other commits, to make detection of fast forward condition in multi-head merge easier.

2005-09-07Big tool rename.Libravatar Junio C Hamano62-328/+372
As promised, this is the "big tool rename" patch. The primary differences since 0.99.6 are: (1) git-*-script are no more. The commands installed do not have any such suffix so users do not have to remember if something is implemented as a shell script or not. (2) Many command names with 'cache' in them are renamed with 'index' if that is what they mean. There are backward compatibility symblic links so that you and Porcelains can keep using the old names, but the backward compatibility support is expected to be removed in the near future.
