2006-05-19Create/delete branch ref logs.Libravatar Shawn Pearce1-2/+8
When crating a new branch offer '-l' as a way for the user to quickly enable ref logging for the new branch. When deleting a branch also delete its ref log. Signed-off-by: Shawn O. Pearce <spearce@spearce.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2006-05-19Change order of -m option to update-ref.Libravatar Shawn Pearce1-1/+1
The actual position doesn't matter but most people prefer to see options appear before the arguments. Signed-off-by: Shawn O. Pearce <spearce@spearce.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2006-05-19Change 'master@noon' syntax to 'master@{noon}'.Libravatar Shawn Pearce1-5/+6
Its ambiguous to parse "master@2006-05-17 18:30:foo" when foo is meant as a file name and ":30" is meant as 30 minutes past 6 pm. Therefore all date specifications in a sha1 expression must now appear within brackets and the ':' splitter used for the path name in a sha1 expression ignores ':' appearing within brackets.

2006-05-17Support 'master@2 hours ago' syntaxLibravatar Shawn Pearce1-0/+6
Extended sha1 expressions may now include date specifications which indicate a point in time within the local repository's history. If the ref indicated to the left of '@' has a log in $GIT_DIR/logs/<ref> then the value of the ref at the time indicated by the specification is obtained from the ref's log. Signed-off-by: Shawn O. Pearce <spearce@spearce.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2006-05-17Log ref updates to logs/refs/<ref>Libravatar Shawn Pearce2-0/+34
If config parameter core.logAllRefUpdates is true or the log file already exists then append a line to ".git/logs/refs/<ref>" whenever git-update-ref <ref> is executed. Each log line contains the following information: oldsha1 <SP> newsha1 <SP> committer <LF> where committer is the current user, date, time and timezone in the standard GIT ident format. If the caller is unable to append to the log file then git-update-ref will fail without updating <ref>. An optional message may be included in the log line with the -m flag. Signed-off-by: Shawn O. Pearce <spearce@spearce.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2006-05-17Convert update-ref to use ref_lock API.Libravatar Shawn Pearce1-1/+1
This conversion also adds the '-m' switch to update-ref allowing the caller to record why the ref is changing. At present this is merely copied down into the ref_lock API. Signed-off-by: Shawn O. Pearce <spearce@spearce.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

2006-05-14Add "--branches", "--tags" and "--remotes" options to git-rev-parse.Libravatar Sean1-0/+9
"git branch" uses "rev-parse --all" and becomes much too slow when there are many tags (it scans all refs). Use the new "--branches" option of rev-parse to speed things up. Signed-off-by: Sean Estabrooks <seanlkml@sympatico.ca> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

2006-05-08Teach git-clean optional <paths>... parameters.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-1/+4
When optional paths arguments are given, git-clean passes them to underlying git-ls-files; with this, you can say: git clean 'temp-*' to clean only the garbage files whose names begin with 'temp-'. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net> Signed-off-by: Pavel Roskin <proski@gnu.org>

2006-05-05update-index --againLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-1/+5
After running 'git-update-index' for some paths, you may want to do the update on the same set of paths again. The new flag --again checks the paths whose index entries are are different from the HEAD commit and updates them from the working tree contents. This was brought up by Carl Worth on #git.

Move incorrect asciidoc level 2 titles back to level 1. Show output of git-name-rev in man page example. Reword sentences that begin with a period (.) in asciidoc numbered lists to work around conversion to man page bug. Mention that git-repack now calls git-prune-packed when the -d option is passed to it. [imap] section headers in the config file example need to be contained in a literal block. imap.pass is the proper config file variable to use, not imap.password.
