2009-12-05Documentation: Avoid use of xmlto --stringparamLibravatar Todd Zullinger3-11/+23
The --stringparam option is not available on older xmlto versions. Instead, set man.base.url.for.relative.links via a .xsl file. Older docbook versions will ignore this without causing grief to users of older xmlto versions. Signed-off-by: Todd Zullinger <tmz@pobox.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2009-12-03Documentation: xmlto 0.0.18 does not know --stringparamLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+7
Newer DocBook stylesheets want man.base.url.for.relative.links parameter set when formatting manpages with external references to turn them into full URLs, and leave a helpful "you should set this parameter" message in the output. Earlier we added the MAN_BASE_URL make variable to specify the value for it. When MAN_BASE_URL is not given, it ought to be safe to set the parameter to empty; it would result in an empty leading path for older stylesheets that ignore the parameter, and newer ones would produce the same "relative URL" without the message. Unfortunately, older xmlto (at least version 0.0.18 released in early 2004 that comes with RHEL/CentOS 5) does not understand the --stringparam command line option, so we cannot add the parameter definition unconditionally to the command line. Work it around by passing the parameter only when set. If you do not have a suitable URL prefix, you can pass a quoted empty string to it, like so: $ make MAN_BASE_URL='""' Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2009-11-25t1200: fix a timing dependent errorLibravatar Nanako Shiraishi1-2/+2
The fourth test of show-branch in t1200 test was failing but only sometimes. It only failed when two commits created in an earlier test had different timestamps. When they were created within the same second, the actual output matched the expected output. Fix this by using test_tick to force reliable timestamps and update the expected output so it does not to depend on the commits made in the same sacond.

2009-11-23pack-objects: split implications of --all-progress from progress activationLibravatar Nicolas Pitre1-3/+9
Currently the --all-progress flag is used to use force progress display during the writing object phase even if output goes to stdout which is primarily the case during a push operation. This has the unfortunate side effect of forcing progress display even if stderr is not a terminal. Let's introduce the --all-progress-implied argument which has the same intent except for actually forcing the activation of any progress display. With this, progress display will be automatically inhibited whenever stderr is not a terminal, or full progress display will be included otherwise. This should let people use 'git push' within a cron job without filling their logs with useless percentage displays.

2009-11-23Fix over-simplified documentation for 'git log -z'Libravatar Björn Gustavsson1-5/+7
In commit 64485b4a, the documentation for 'git log -z' was simplified too much. The -z option actually changes the behavior of 'git log' in two ways: commits will be ended with a NUL instead of a LF (correctly documented) and the --raw and --numstat will have NUL as field terminators (omitted in the documentation for 'git log').
