2021-11-29Merge branch 'tp/send-email-completion'Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-2/+4
The command line complation for "git send-email" options have been tweaked to make it easier to keep it in sync with the command itself. * tp/send-email-completion: send-email docs: add format-patch options send-email: programmatically generate bash completions
2021-11-29Merge branch 'so/stash-staged'Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-3/+31

2021-11-13SubmittingPatches: fix Asciidoc syntax in "GitHub CI" sectionLibravatar Philippe Blain1-2/+2
A superfluous ']' was added to the title of the GitHub CI section in f003a91f5c (SubmittingPatches: replace discussion of Travis with GitHub Actions, 2021-07-22). Remove it. While at it, format the URL for a GitHub user's workflow runs of Git between backticks, since if not Asciidoc formats only the first part, "https://github.com/<Your", as a link, which is not very useful.

2021-11-12Merge branch 'js/trace2-raise-format-version'Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-2/+2

2021-11-11trace2: increment event format versionLibravatar Josh Steadmon1-2/+2
In 64bc752 (trace2: add trace2_child_ready() to report on background children, 2021-09-20), we added a new "child_ready" event. In Documentation/technical/api-trace2.txt, we promise that adding a new event type will result in incrementing the trace2 event format version number, but this was not done. Correct this in code & docs. Signed-off-by: Josh Steadmon <steadmon@google.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2021-11-11Revert "connected: do not sort input revisions"Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-7/+1
This reverts commit f45022dc2fd692fd024f2eb41a86a66f19013d43, as this is like breakage in the traversal more likely. In a history with 10 single strand of pearls, 1-->2-->3--...->7-->8-->9-->10 asking "rev-list --unsorted-input 1 10 --not 9 8 7 6 5 4" fails to paint the bottom 1 uninteresting as the traversal stops, without completing the propagation of uninteresting bit starting at 4 down through 3 and 2 to 1.

2021-10-29log: document --encoding behavior on iconv() failureLibravatar Jeff King1-1/+3
We already note that we may produce invalid output when we skip calling iconv() altogether. But we may also do so if iconv() fails, and we have no good alternative. Let's document this to avoid surprising users. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2021-10-29Revert "logmsg_reencode(): warn when iconv() fails"Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-3/+1
This reverts commit fd680bc5 (logmsg_reencode(): warn when iconv() fails, 2021-08-27). Throwing a warning for each and every commit that gets reencoded, without allowing a way to squelch, would make it unpleasant for folks who have to deal with an ancient part of the history in an old project that used wrong encoding in the commits.
2021-10-29Document positive variant of commit and merge option "--no-verify"Libravatar Alex Riesen2-4/+6

Add an "and" to separate the two halves of the first sentence of the paragraph more. Add a comma to similarly separate the two halves of the second sentence a bit better. Add a period at the end of the paragraph. Further down in the file, add the missing "be" in "must be accompanied".

2021-10-27Documentation/Makefile: fix lint-docs mkdir dependencyLibravatar Jeff King1-2/+2
Since 8650c6298c (doc lint: make "lint-docs" non-.PHONY, 2021-10-15), we put the output for gitlink linter into .build/lint-docs/gitlink. There are order-only dependencies to create the sequence of subdirs like: .build/lint-docs: | .build $(QUIET)mkdir $@ .build/lint-docs/gitlink: | .build/lint-docs $(QUIET)mkdir $@ where each level has to depend on the prior one (since the parent directory must exist for us to create something inside it). But the "howto" and "config" subdirectories of gitlink have the wrong dependency; they depend on "lint-docs", not "lint-docs/gitlink". This usually works out, because the LINT_DOCS_GITLINK targets which depend on "gitlink/howto" also depend on just "gitlink", so the directory gets created anyway. But since we haven't given make an explicit ordering, things can racily happen out of order. If you stick a "sleep 1" in the rule to build "gitlink" like this: ## Lint: gitlink .build/lint-docs/gitlink: | .build/lint-docs - $(QUIET)mkdir $@ + $(QUIET)sleep 1 && mkdir $@ then "make clean; make lint-docs" will fail reliably. Or you can see it as-is just by building the directory in isolation: $ make clean [...] $ make .build/lint-docs/gitlink/howto GEN mergetools-list.made GEN cmd-list.made GEN doc.dep SUBDIR ../ make[1]: 'GIT-VERSION-FILE' is up to date. SUBDIR ../ make[1]: 'GIT-VERSION-FILE' is up to date. mkdir: cannot create directory ‘.build/lint-docs/gitlink/howto’: No such file or directory make: *** [Makefile:476: .build/lint-docs/gitlink/howto] Error 1 The fix is easy: we just need to depend on the correct parent directory.
