2011-09-01git-svn: Teach dcommit --mergeinfo to handle multiple linesLibravatar Bryan Jacobs1-2/+3
"svn dcommit --mergeinfo" replaces the svn:mergeinfo property in an upstream SVN repository with the given text. The svn:mergeinfo property may contain commits originating on multiple branches, separated by newlines. Cause space characters in the mergeinfo to be replaced by newlines, allowing a user to create history representing multiple branches being merged into one. Update the corresponding documentation and add a test for the new functionality.

2011-09-01git-svn: New flag to emulate empty directoriesLibravatar Ray Chen1-0/+11
Adds a --preserve-empty-dirs flag to the clone operation that will detect empty directories in the remote Subversion repository and create placeholder files in the corresponding local Git directories. This allows "empty" directories to exist in the history of a Git repository. Also adds the --placeholder-file flag to control the name of any placeholder files created. Default value is ".gitignore".

2011-08-30Documentation: clarify effects of -- <path> argumentsLibravatar Thomas Rast1-4/+7
'git log -- <path>' does not "show commits that affect the specified paths" in a literal sense unless --full-history is given (for example, a file that only existed on a side branch will turn up no commits at all!). Reword it to specify the actual intent of the filtering, and point to the "History Simplification" section.

2011-08-28Documentation: clarify "git clean -e <pattern>"Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-4/+6
The current explanation of -e can be misread as allowing the user to say I know 'git clean -XYZ' (substitute -XYZ with any option and/or parameter) will remove paths A, B, and C, and I want them all removed except for paths matching this pattern by adding '-e C' to the same command line, i.e. 'git clean -e C -XYZ'. But that is not what this option does. It augments the set of ignore rules from the command line, just like the same "-e <pattern>" argument does with the "ls-files" command (the user could probably pass "-e \!C" to tell the command to clean everything the command would normally remove, except for C). Also error out when both -x and -e are given with an explanation of what -e means---it is a symptom of misunderstanding what -e does. It also fixes small style nit in the parameter to add_exclude() call. The current code only works because EXC_CMDL happens to be defined as 0. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2011-08-25git-notes.txt: clarify -C vs. copy and -FLibravatar Michael J Gruber1-2/+5
The current description of '-C' together with the analogy to 'git commit -C' can lead to the wrong conclusion that '-C' copies notes between objects. Make this clearer by rewording and pointing to 'copy'. The example for attaching binary notes with 'git hash-object' followed by 'git notes add -C' immediately raises the question: "Why not use 'git notes add -F'?". Answer it (the latter is not binary-safe). Signed-off-by: Michael J Gruber <git@drmicha.warpmail.net> Acked-by: Johan Herland <johan@herland.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2011-08-20push: Don't push a repository with unpushed submodulesLibravatar Fredrik Gustafsson1-0/+6
When working with submodules it is easy to forget to push a submodule to the server but pushing a super-project that contains a commit for that submodule. The result is that the superproject points at a submodule commit that is not available on the server. This adds the option --recurse-submodules=check to push. When using this option git will check that all submodule commits that are about to be pushed are present on a remote of the submodule. To be able to use a combined diff, disabling a diff callback has been removed from combined-diff.c.

2011-08-17doc/fast-import: document feature import-marks-if-existsLibravatar Dmitry Ivankov1-3/+7
fast-import command-line option --import-marks-if-exists was introduced in commit dded4f1 (fast-import: Introduce --import-marks-if-exists, 2011-01-15) --import-marks option can be set via a "feature" command in a fast-import stream and --import-marks-if-exists had support for such specification from the very beginning too due to some shared codebase. Though the documentation for this feature wasn't written in dded4f1. Add the documentation for "feature import-marks-if-exists=<file>". Also add a minimalistic test for it.
