2012-04-16Merge branch 'jc/commit-unedited-template'Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-5/+8
When "git commit --template F" errors out because the user did not touch the message, it claimed that it aborts due to "empty message", which was utterly wrong. By Junio C Hamano (4) and Adam Monsen (1) * jc/commit-unedited-template: Documentation/git-commit: rephrase the "initial-ness" of templates git-commit.txt: clarify -t requires editing message commit: rephrase the error when user did not touch templated log message commit: do not trigger bogus "has templated message edited" check t7501: test the right kind of breakage

2012-04-03Documentation/git-commit: rephrase the "initial-ness" of templatesLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-5/+8
The description of "commit -t <file>" said the file is used "as the initial version" of the commit message, but in the context of an SCM, "version" is a loaded word that can needlesslyl confuse readers. Explain the purpose of the mechanism without using "version". Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

Found by running this command: $ git ls-files -z|xargs -0 perl -0777 -n \ -e 'while (/\b(then?|[iao]n|i[fst]|but|f?or|at|and|[dt]o)\s+\1\b/gims)' \ -e ' {' \ -e ' $n = ($` =~ tr/\n/\n/ + 1);' \ -e ' ($v = $&) =~ s/\n/\\n/g;' \ -e ' print "$ARGV:$n:$v\n";' \ -e ' }' Why not just git grep -E ...? That wouldn't work then the doubled words are separated by a newline.

2012-03-26Documentation: improve description of GIT_EDITOR and preference orderLibravatar Rodrigo Silva (MestreLion)1-0/+6
Previously GIT_EDITOR was not listed in git(1) "Environment Variables" section, which could be very confusing to users. Include it in "other" subsection along with a link to git-var(1), since that is the page that fully describes all places where editor can be set and also their preference order. Also, git-var(1) did not say that hardcoded fallback 'vi' may have been changed at build time. A user could be puzzled if 'nano' pops up even when none of the mentioned environment vars or config.editor are set. Clarify this. Ideally, the build system should be changed to reflect the chosen fallback editor when creating the man pages. Not sure if that is even possible though.

2012-03-20merge: backport GIT_MERGE_AUTOEDIT supportLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-2/+12
Even though 1.7.9.x series does not open the editor by default when merging in general, it does do so in one occassion: when merging an annotated tag. And worse yet, there is no good way for older scripts to decline this. Backport the support for GIT_MERGE_AUTOEDIT environment variable from 1.7.10 track to help those stuck on 1.7.9.x maintenance track. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
