2012-03-04http.proxy: also mention https_proxy and all_proxyLibravatar Clemens Buchacher1-3/+4
The current wording of the http.proxy documentation suggests that http_proxy is somehow equivalent to http.proxy. However, while http.proxy (by the means of curl's CURLOPT_PROXY option) overrides the proxy for both HTTP and HTTPS protocols, the http_proxy environment variable is used only for HTTP. But since the docs mention only http_proxy, a user might expect it to apply to all HTTP-like protocols. Avoid any such misunderstanding by explicitly mentioning https_proxy and all_proxy as well. Also replace linkgit:curl[1] with a literal 'curl(1)', because the former gets translated to a dead link in the HTML pages.

2012-03-02Documentation: do not assume that n > 1 in <rev>~$nLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-1/+1
We explained <rev>~<n> as <n>th generation grand-parent, but a reader got confused by the "grand-" part when <n> is 1. Reword it with "ancestor"; with the "generation" and "following only the first parents" around there, what we try to describe should be clear enough now.

2012-02-27CodingGuidelines: do not use 'which' in shell scriptsLibravatar Tim Henigan1-0/+5
During the code review of a recent patch, it was noted that shell scripts must not use 'which $cmd' to check the availability of the command $cmd. The output of the command is not machine parseable and its exit code is not reliable across platforms. It is better to use 'type' to accomplish this task.

2012-02-26git-p4: set useClientSpec variable on initial cloneLibravatar Pete Wyckoff1-3/+7
If --use-client-spec was given, set the matching configuration variable. This is necessary to ensure that future submits work properly. The alternatives of requiring the user to set it, or providing a command-line option on every submit, are error prone.

2012-02-03Use correct grammar in diffstat summary lineLibravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy2-3/+3
"git diff --stat" and "git apply --stat" now learn to print the line "%d files changed, %d insertions(+), %d deletions(-)" in singular form whenever applicable. "0 insertions" and "0 deletions" are also omitted unless they are both zero. This matches how versions of "diffstat" that are not prehistoric produced their output, and also makes this line translatable.

2012-01-31request-pull: explicitly ask tags/$name to be pulledLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-2/+2
When asking for a tag to be pulled, disambiguate by leaving tags/ prefix in front of the name of the tag. E.g. ... in the git repository at: git://example.com/git/git.git/ tags/v1.2.3 for you to fetch changes up to 123456... This way, older versions of "git pull" can be used to respond to such a request more easily, as "git pull $URL v1.2.3" did not DWIM to fetch v1.2.3 tag in older versions. Also this makes it clearer for humans that the pull request is made for a tag and he should anticipate a signed one. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2012-01-13git-show-ref: fix escaping in asciidoc sourceLibravatar Michael Haggerty1-3/+3
Two "^" characters were incorrectly being interpreted as markup for superscripting. Fix them by writing them as attribute references "{caret}". Although a single "^" character in a paragraph cannot be misinterpreted in this way, also write other "^" characters as "{caret}" in the interest of good hygiene (unless they are in literal paragraphs, of course, in which context attribute references are not recognized). Spell "{}" consistently, namely *not* quoted as "\{\}". Since the braces are empty, they cannot be interpreted as an attribute reference, and either spelling is OK. So arbitrarily choose one variation and use it consistently. Signed-off-by: Michael Haggerty <mhagger@alum.mit.edu> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
