2005-11-24Rename git-config-set to git-repo-configLibravatar Johannes Schindelin2-22/+22

2005-11-21daemon: further tweaks.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-2/+2
- Do validation only on canonicalized paths - Run upload-pack with "." as repository argument Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2005-11-21git-daemon support for user-relative paths.Libravatar Andreas Ericsson2-5/+18
Dropped a fair amount of reundant code in favour of the library code in path.c Added option --strict-paths with documentation, with backwards compatibility for whitelist entries with symlinks. Everything that worked earlier still works insofar as I have remembered testing it. Signed-off-by: Andreas Ericsson <ae@op5.se> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2005-11-21tutorial: setting up a tree for subsystem maintainersLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-1/+4
The "copying over packs" step is to prevent the objects available in upstream repository to get expanted in the subsystem maintainer tree, and is still valid if the upstream repository do not live on the same machine. But if they are on the same machine using objects/info/alternates is cleaner. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2005-11-20git-reset.txt: Small fix + clarifications.Libravatar Andreas Ericsson1-4/+15
This basically translates the man-page from 'git-developerish' to plain english, adding some almost-sample output from git-status so users can recognize what will happen. Also mention explicitly that --mixed updates the index, while --soft doesn't. I understood the old text to mean "--mixed is exactly like --soft, but verbose".

2005-11-20git-config-set: support selecting values by non-matching regexLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-1/+17
Extend the regex syntax of value_regex so that prepending an exclamation mark means non-match: [core] quetzal = "Dodo" for Brainf*ck quetzal = "T. Rex" for Malbolge quetzal = "cat" You can match the third line with git-config-set --get quetzal '! for ' Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <Johannes.Schindelin@gmx.de> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2005-11-19git-config-set: add more optionsLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-8/+54
... namely --replace-all, to replace any amount of matching lines, not just 0 or 1, --get, to get the value of one key, --get-all, the multivar version of --get, and --unset-all, which deletes all matching lines from .git/config Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <Johannes.Schindelin@gmx.de> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

2005-11-19Documentation: rebase-from-internal minor updates.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-5/+2
git-commit -v flag has been the default for quite some time, so do not mention it. Also a typofix. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

2005-11-18Update pull/fetch --tags documentationLibravatar Luck, Tony1-1/+3
When fetching/pulling from a remote repository the "--tags" option can be used to pull tags too. Document that it will limit the pull to only commits reachable from the tags. Signed-off-by: Tony Luck <tony.luck@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2005-11-17git-am: --binary; document --resume and --binary.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-8/+16
Now git-apply can grok binary replacement patches, give --binary flag to git-am. As a safety measure, this is not by default enabled, so that you do not let malicious e-mailed patch to replace an arbitrary path with just a couple of lines (diff index lines, the filename and string "Binary files "...) by accident. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2005-11-16diff: --full-indexLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+5
A new option, --full-index, is introduced to diff family. This causes the full object name of pre- and post-images to appear on the index line of patch formatted output, to be used in conjunction with --allow-binary-replacement option of git-apply. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2005-11-16apply: allow-binary-replacement.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-1/+12
A new option, --allow-binary-replacement, is introduced. When you feed a diff that records full SHA1 name of pre- and post-image blob on its index line to git-apply with this option, the post-image blob replaces the path if what you have in the working tree matches the pre-image _and_ post-image blob is already available in the object directory. Later we _might_ want to enhance the diff output to also include the full binary data of the post-image, to make this more useful, but this is good enough for local rebasing application.

2005-11-15git --help COMMAND brings up the git-COMMAND man-page.Libravatar Andreas Ericsson1-0/+2
It's by design a bit stupid (matching ^git rather than ^git-), so as to work with 'gitk' and 'git' as well. Signed-off-by: Andreas Ericsson <ae@op5.se> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2005-11-15Update git(7) man-page for the C wrapper.Libravatar Andreas Ericsson1-7/+28
The program 'git' now has --exec-path which needs explaining. Renamed old "DESCRIPTION" to "CORE GIT COMMANDS" to make room for "OPTIONS" while following follow some sort of convention. Also updated AUTHORS section to pat my own back a bit. Signed-off-by: Andreas Ericsson <ae@op5.se> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

2005-11-15Documentation: do not blindly run 'cat' .git/HEAD, or echo into it.Libravatar Junio C Hamano6-10/+11
Many places in the documentation we still talked about reading what commit is recorded in .git/HEAD or writing the new head information into it, both assuming .git/HEAD is a symlink. That is not necessarily so. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2005-11-15git-daemon: --inetd implies --syslogLibravatar Andreas Ericsson1-1/+1
Otherwise nothing is logged anywhere, which is a Bad Thing. Signed-off-by: Andreas Ericsson <ae@op5.se> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

This patch adds documentation to quite a few command-line options. Signed-off-by: Nikolai Weibull <nikolai@bitwi.se> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2005-11-14Document the -n command-line option to git-unpack-objectsLibravatar Nikolai Weibull1-1/+5
This patch documents the -n command-line option to git-unpack-objects, as it was previously undocumented. Signed-off-by: Nikolai Weibull <nikolai@bitwi.se> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

2005-11-13Rename lost+found to lost-found.Libravatar Junio C Hamano2-5/+5
Because we use "lost-found" as the directory name to hold dangling object names, it is confusing to call the command git-lost+found, although it makes sense and is even cute ;-). Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2005-11-11Documentation: asciidoc sources are utf-8Libravatar Junio C Hamano2-3/+3
git-pack-redundant documentation was encoded in latin1, which caused asciidoc to barf, which expected to see utf-8. Run tcs to re-encode it in utf-8. Also just for fun try my name in Japanese in git-lost+found documentation ;-) Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2005-11-11Rename .git/lost+found to .git/lost-found.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-4/+4
Just to avoid confusion that scripts poorly written by somebody else ;-) might mistake this as a mount point, or backup tools ignoring the directory. The latter is probably not a big loss, however, considering that this directory's contents are to be used while fresh anyway. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2005-11-11git-lost+foundLibravatar Junio C Hamano2-0/+81
This command helps you resurrect accidentally lost tags and commits. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2005-11-11Make git-pack-redundant consider alt-odbsLibravatar Lukas_Sandström1-7/+10
This patch changes git-pack-redundant so that packfiles in alternate object directories also are considered when deciding which objects are redundant. This functionality is controlled by the flag '--alt-odb'. Also convert the other flags to the long form, and update docs and git-repack accordingly.

2005-11-11Rename git-pack-intersect to git-pack-redundantLibravatar Lukas_Sandström1-3/+3
This patch renames git-pack-intersect to git-pack-redundant as suggested by Petr Baudis. The new name reflects what the program does, rather than how it does it. Also fix a small argument parsing bug. Signed-off-by: Lukas Sandström <lukass@etek.chalmers.se> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

2005-11-11Documentation: git-apply --no-addLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-1/+7
This is a specialized hack to help no-base merges, but other people might find it useful, so let's document it. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2005-11-11Change 'cache' to 'index' in the docsLibravatar Lukas_Sandström17-71/+71
This patch makes the documentation refer to the index as index instead of cache, but some references still remain. (e.g. git-update-index.txt) Signed-off-by: Lukas Sandström <lukass@etek.chalmers.se> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2005-11-11git-clone: Keep remote names when cloning unless explicitly told not to.Libravatar Andreas Ericsson1-5/+7
With this patch the following commands all clone into the local directory "repo". If repo exists, it will still barf. git-clone git://host.xz/repo.git git-clone /path/to/repo/.git git-clone host.xz:repo.git I ended up doing the same source-to-target sed'ing for all our company projects, so it was easier to add it directly to git-clone.

2005-11-11Add --no-commit-id option for git-diff-tree, use it in gitkLibravatar Pavel Roskin1-1/+5
This patch introduces -no-commit-id option for git-diff-tree, which suppresses commit ID output. [jc: dropped gitk part for now.] Signed-off-by: Pavel Roskin <proski@gnu.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2005-11-11Documentation: "host:path/to/repo" is git native over ssh.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-1/+1
You could also spell it ssh://host:/path/to/repo (or git+ssh, ssh+git), but without method:// is shorter to type, so mention only that one in the short and sweet list. Noticed by Pasky. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

2005-11-08Clean build annoyance.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-4/+0
As Pasky pointed out, building in templates directory showed list of built template files which was unneeded. This commit also fixes another build annoyance I recently left in by accident. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

2005-11-07Fix documentation dependency generation.Libravatar Junio C Hamano3-9/+36
Documentation/Makefile spent a lot of time to generate include dependencies, which was quite noticeable especially during "make clean". Rewrite it to generate just a single dependency file. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2005-11-07Documentation: asciidoc formatting fix for git-cvsexportcommit doc.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-1/+1

2005-11-07Introducing: git-cvsexportcommitLibravatar Martin Langhoff1-0/+56
A script that can replay commits git into a CVS checkout. Tries to ensure the sanity of the operation and supports mainly manual usage. If you are reckless enough, you can ask it to autocommit when everything has applied cleanly. Combined with a couple more scripts could become part of a git2cvs gateway. Should support adds/removes and binary files. Signed-off-by: Martin Langhoff <martin@catalyst.net.nz> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
