2008-02-24url rewriting: take longest and first matchLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-3/+2
Earlier we had a cop-out in the documentation to make the behaviour "undefined" if configuration had more than one insteadOf that would match the target URL, like this: [url "git://git.or.cz/"] insteadOf = "git.or.cz:" ; (1) insteadOf = "repo.or.cz:" ; (2) [url "/local/mirror/"] insteadOf = "git.or.cz:myrepo" ; (3) insteadOf = "repo.or.cz:" ; (4) It would be most natural to take the longest and first match, i.e. - rewrite "git.or.cz:frotz" to "git://git.or.cz/frotz" by using (1), - rewrite "git.or.cz:myrepo/xyzzy" to "/local/mirror/xyzzy" by favoring (3) over (1), and - rewrite "repo.or.cz:frotz" to "git://git.or.cz/frotz" by favoring (2) over (4).

2008-02-24Add support for url aliases in config filesLibravatar Daniel Barkalow2-0/+35
This allows users with different preferences for access methods to the same remote repositories to rewrite each other's URLs by pattern matching across a large set of similiarly set up repositories to each get the desired access. For example, if you don't have a kernel.org account, you might want settings like: [url "git://git.kernel.org/pub/"] insteadOf = master.kernel.org:/pub Then, if you give git a URL like: master.kernel.org:/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/linville/wireless-2.6.git it will act like you gave it: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/linville/wireless-2.6.git and you can cut-and-paste pull requests in email without fixing them by hand, for example.

2008-02-24Teach git-describe --exact-match to avoid expensive tag searchesLibravatar Shawn O. Pearce1-0/+5
Sometimes scripts want (or need) the annotated tag name that exactly matches a specific commit, or no tag at all. In such cases it can be difficult to determine if the output of `git describe $commit` is a real tag name or a tag+abbreviated commit. A common idiom is to run git-describe twice: if test $(git describe $commit) = $(git describe --abbrev=0 $commit) ... but this is a huge waste of time if the caller is just going to pick a different method to describe $commit or abort because it is not exactly an annotated tag. Setting the maximum number of candidates to 0 allows the caller to ask for only a tag that directly points at the supplied commit, or to have git-describe abort if no such item exists.

2008-02-23pack-objects: Add runtime detection of online CPU'sLibravatar Andreas Ericsson2-0/+4
Packing objects can be done in parallell nowadays, but it's only done if the config option pack.threads is set to a value above 1. Because of that, the code-path used is often not the most optimal one. This patch adds a routine to detect the number of online CPU's at runtime (online_cpus()). When pack.threads (or --threads=) is given a value of 0, the number of threads is set to the number of online CPU's. This feature is also documented. As per Nicolas Pitre's recommendations, the default is still to run pack-objects single-threaded unless explicitly activated, either by configuration or by command line parameter. The routine online_cpus() is a rework of "numcpus.c", written by one Philip Willoughby <pgw99@doc.ic.ac.uk>. numcpus.c is in the public domain and can presently be downloaded from http://csgsoft.doc.ic.ac.uk/numcpus/ Signed-off-by: Andreas Ericsson <ae@op5.se> Signed-off-by: Brandon Casey <casey@nrlssc.navy.mil> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2008-02-19Documentation/push: clarify matching refspec behaviorLibravatar Jeff King1-3/+3
The previous text was correct, but it was easy to miss the fact that we are talking about "matching" refs. That is, the text can be parsed as "we push the union of the sets of remote and local heads" and not "we push the intersection of the sets of remote and local heads". (The former actually doesn't make sense if you think about it, since we don't even _have_ some of those heads). A careful reading would reveal the correct meaning, but it makes sense to be as explicit as possible in documentation. We also explicitly use and introduce the term "matching"; this is a term discussed on the list, and it seems useful to for users to be able to refer to this behavior by name.
