2006-06-18Support for extracting configuration from different filesLibravatar Petr Baudis1-0/+12
Add $GIT_CONFIG environment variable whose content is used instead of .git/config if set.

2006-06-16Add a "--notags" option for git-p4import.Libravatar Sean1-1/+4
P4import currently creates a git tag for every commit it imports. When importing from a large repository too many tags can be created for git to manage, so this provides an option to shut that feature off if necessary. Signed-off-by: Sean Estabrooks <seanlkml@sympatico.ca>

2006-06-07Some doc typo fixesLibravatar Francis Daly10-13/+14
All should be clear enough, except perhaps committish / commitish. I just kept the more-used one within the current docs. [jc: with rephrasing of check-ref-format description later discussed on the list] Signed-off-by: Francis Daly <francis@daoine.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2006-06-06git-format-patch: add --output-directory long option againLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-2/+1
Additionally notices and complains to an -o option without directory or a duplicated -o option, -o and --stdout given together. Also delays the creation of directory until all arguments are parsed, so that the command does not leave an empty directory behind when it exits after seeing an unrelated invalid option. [jc: originally from Dennis Stosberg but with minor fixes, and documentation updates from Dennis.] Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

2006-06-03Merge branch 'sp/reflog'Libravatar Junio C Hamano6-4/+67
* sp/reflog: fetch.c: do not pass uninitialized lock to unlock_ref(). Test that git-branch -l works. Verify git-commit provides a reflog message. Enable ref log creation in git checkout -b. Create/delete branch ref logs. Include ref log detail in commit, reset, etc. Change order of -m option to update-ref. Correct force_write bug in refs.c Change 'master@noon' syntax to 'master@{noon}'. Log ref updates made by fetch. Force writing ref if it doesn't exist. Added logs/ directory to repository layout. General ref log reading improvements. Fix ref log parsing so it works properly. Support 'master@2 hours ago' syntax Log ref updates to logs/refs/<ref> Convert update-ref to use ref_lock API. Improve abstraction of ref lock/write.

2006-05-29documentation: add brief mention of cat-file to tutorial part ILibravatar J. Bruce Fields1-1/+7
I'd rather avoid git cat-file so early on, but the git-cat-file -p old-commit:/path/to/file trick is too useful.... Also fix a nearby typo while we're at it. Signed-off-by: J. Bruce Fields <bfields@citi.umich.edu> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2006-05-29documentation: mention gitk font adjustment in tutorialLibravatar J. Bruce Fields1-1/+3
Kind of silly, but the font I get by default in gitk makes it mostly unusable for me, so this is the first thing I'd want to know about.

2006-05-25Documentation/Makefile: remove extra /Libravatar Martin Waitz1-3/+3
As both DESTDIR and the prefix are supposed to be absolute pathnames they can simply be concatenated without an extra / (like in the main Makefile). The extra slash may even break installation on Windows.

2006-05-21tutorial: expanded discussion of commit historyLibravatar J. Bruce Fields1-53/+112
Expand the history-browsing section of the tutorial a bit, in part to address Junio's suggestion that we mention "git grep" and Linus's complaint that people are missing the flexibility of the commandline interfaces for selecting commits. This reads a little more like a collection of examples than a "tutorial", but maybe that's what people need at this point. Signed-off-by: J.

2006-05-21Elaborate on why ':' is a bad idea in a ref name.Libravatar Shawn Pearce1-0/+2
With the new cat-file syntax of 'v1.3.3:refs.c' we should mention it as part of the reason why ':' is not permitted in a ref name. Signed-off-by: Shawn O. Pearce <spearce@spearce.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2006-05-21Reference git-check-ref-format in git-branch.Libravatar Shawn Pearce2-1/+7

2006-05-19Enable ref log creation in git checkout -b.Libravatar Shawn Pearce1-1/+6
Switch git checkout -b to use git-update-ref rather than echo and a shell I/O redirection. This is more in line with typical GIT commands and allows -b to be logged according to the normal ref logging rules. Added -l option to allow users to create the ref log at the same time as creating a branch. Signed-off-by: Shawn O. Pearce <spearce@spearce.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

2006-05-19Change order of -m option to update-ref.Libravatar Shawn Pearce1-1/+1
The actual position doesn't matter but most people prefer to see options appear before the arguments. Signed-off-by: Shawn O. Pearce <spearce@spearce.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2006-05-19Change 'master@noon' syntax to 'master@{noon}'.Libravatar Shawn Pearce1-5/+6
Its ambiguous to parse "master@2006-05-17 18:30:foo" when foo is meant as a file name and ":30" is meant as 30 minutes past 6 pm. Therefore all date specifications in a sha1 expression must now appear within brackets and the ':' splitter used for the path name in a sha1 expression ignores ':' appearing within brackets.
