2009-08-26git-log: allow --decorate[=short|full]Libravatar Lars Hjemli1-2/+6
Commit de435ac0 changed the behavior of --decorate from printing the full ref (e.g., "refs/heads/master") to a shorter, more human-readable version (e.g., just "master"). While this is nice for human readers, external tools using the output from "git log" may prefer the full version. This patch introduces an extension to --decorate to allow the caller to specify either the short or the full versions.

2009-08-20git clone: Add --recursive to automatically checkout (nested) submodulesLibravatar Johan Herland1-1/+9
Many projects using submodules expect all submodules to be checked out in order to build/work correctly. A common command sequence for developers on such projects is: git clone url/to/project cd project git submodule update --init (--recursive) This patch introduces the --recursive option to git-clone. The new option causes git-clone to recursively clone and checkout all submodules of the cloned project. Hence, the above command sequence can be reduced to: git clone --recursive url/to/project --recursive is ignored if no checkout is done by the git-clone. The patch also includes documentation and a selftest. Signed-off-by: Johan Herland <johan@herland.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2009-08-18git submodule status: Add --recursive to recurse into nested submodulesLibravatar Johan Herland1-2/+5
In very large and hierarchically structured projects, one may encounter nested submodules. In these situations, it is valuable to not only show status for all the submodules in the current repo (which is what is currently done by 'git submodule status'), but also to show status for all submodules at all levels (i.e. recursing into nested submodules as well). This patch teaches the new --recursive option to the 'git submodule status' command. The patch also includes documentation and selftests.

In very large and hierarchically structured projects, one may encounter nested submodules. In these situations, it is valuable to not only update the submodules in the current repo (which is what is currently done by 'git submodule update'), but also to operate on all submodules at all levels (i.e. recursing into nested submodules as well). This patch teaches the new --recursive option to the 'git submodule update' command. The patch also includes documentation and selftests.

2009-08-18git submodule foreach: Provide access to submodule name, as '$name'Libravatar Johan Herland1-1/+2
The argument to 'git submodule foreach' already has access to the variables '$path' (the path to the submodule, relative to the superproject) and '$sha1' (the submodule commit recorded by the superproject). This patch adds another variable -- '$name' -- which contains the name of the submodule, as recorded in the superproject's .gitmodules file.

2009-08-18filter-branch: add an example how to add ACKs to a range of commitsLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-0/+10
When you have to add certain lines like ACKs (or for that matter, Signed-off-by:s) to a range of commits starting with HEAD, you might be tempted to use 'git rebase -i -10', but that is a waste of your time. It is better to use 'git filter-branch' with an appropriate message filter, and this commit adds an example how to do so to filter-branch's man page.

2009-08-17docs: describe impact of repack on "clone -s"Libravatar Jeff King1-2/+10
The effects of repacking on a repository with alternates are a bit subtle. The two main things users will want are: 1. Not to waste disk space by accidentally copying objects which could be shared. 2. Copying all objects explicitly to break the dependency on the source repo. This patch describes both under the "clone -s" documentation. It makes sense to put it there rather than in git-repack.txt for both cases. For (1), we are warning the user who is using "clone -s" about what _not_ to do, so we need to get their attention when reading about "clone -s". For (2), we are telling them how git-repack can be used to accomplish a task, but until they know that git-repack is the right tool, they have no reason to look at the repack documentation.

2009-08-14git submodule summary: add --files optionLibravatar Jens Lehmann1-2/+11
git submodule summary is providing similar functionality for submodules as git diff-index does for a git project (including the meaning of --cached). But the analogon to git diff-files is missing, so add a --files option to summarize the differences between the index of the super project and the last commit checked out in the working tree of the submodule.

Most of the docs and printouts refer to "commands" when discussing what the end users call via the "git" top-level program. We should refer them as "git programs" when we discuss the fact that the commands are implemented as separate programs, but in other contexts, it is better to use the term "git commands" consistently.
