Doc update. * ah/doc-empty-string-is-false: doc: clarify "config --bool" behaviour with empty string
2017-09-10Merge branch 'mg/killed-merge' into maintLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-1/+4
Killing "git merge --edit" before the editor returns control left the repository in a state with MERGE_MSG but without MERGE_HEAD, which incorrectly tells the subsequent "git commit" that there was a squash merge in progress. This has been fixed. * mg/killed-merge: merge: save merge state earlier merge: split write_merge_state in two merge: clarify call chain Documentation/git-merge: explain --continue
2017-09-10Merge branch 'ma/pager-per-subcommand-action' into maintLibravatar Junio C Hamano2-73/+3
The "tag.pager" configuration variable was useless for those who actually create tag objects, as it interfered with the use of an editor. A new mechanism has been introduced for commands to enable pager depending on what operation is being carried out to fix this, and then "git tag -l" is made to run pager by default. If this works out OK, I think there are low-hanging fruits in other commands like "git branch" that outputs long list in one mode while taking input in another. * ma/pager-per-subcommand-action: git.c: ignore pager.* when launching builtin as dashed external tag: change default of `pager.tag` to "on" tag: respect `pager.tag` in list-mode only t7006: add tests for how git tag paginates git.c: provide setup_auto_pager() git.c: let builtins opt for handling `pager.foo` themselves builtin.h: take over documentation from api-builtin.txt

2017-08-23Merge branch 'jk/ref-filter-colors' into maintLibravatar Junio C Hamano2-9/+15
"%C(color name)" in the pretty print format always produced ANSI color escape codes, which was an early design mistake. They now honor the configuration (e.g. "color.ui = never") and also tty-ness of the output medium. * jk/ref-filter-colors: ref-filter: consult want_color() before emitting colors pretty: respect color settings for %C placeholders rev-list: pass diffopt->use_colors through to pretty-print for-each-ref: load config earlier color: check color.ui in git_default_config() ref-filter: pass ref_format struct to atom parsers ref-filter: factor out the parsing of sorting atoms ref-filter: make parse_ref_filter_atom a private function ref-filter: provide a function for parsing sort options ref-filter: move need_color_reset_at_eol into ref_format ref-filter: abstract ref format into its own struct ref-filter: simplify automatic color reset t: use test_decode_color rather than literal ANSI codes docs/for-each-ref: update pointer to color syntax check return value of verify_ref_format()
2017-08-23Doc: clarify that pack-objects makes packs, pluralLibravatar Jonathan Tan1-6/+11
The documentation for pack-objects describes that it creates "a packed archive of objects", which is confusing because it may create multiple packs if --max-pack-size is set. Update the documentation to clarify this, and explaining in which cases such a feature would be useful.

2017-08-18Documentation/git-for-each-ref: clarify peeling of tags for --formatLibravatar Michael J Gruber1-2/+3
`*` in format strings means peeling of tag objects so that object field names refer to the object that the tag object points at, instead of the tag object itself. Currently, this is documented using grammar that is clearly inspired by classical latin, though missing more than an article in order to be classical english. Try and straighten that explanation out a bit. Signed-off-by: Michael J Gruber <git@grubix.eu> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2017-08-18Documentation: use proper wording for ref format stringsLibravatar Michael J Gruber3-6/+6
Various commands list refs and allow to use a format string for the output that interpolates from the ref as well as the object it points at (for-each-ref; branch and tag in list mode). Currently, the documentation talks about interpolating from the object. This is confusing because a ref points to an object but not vice versa, so the object cannot possible know %(refname), for example. Thus, this is wrong independent of refs being objects (one day, maybe) or not. Change the wording to make this clearer (and distinguish it from formats for the log family).

2017-08-03tag: change default of `pager.tag` to "on"Libravatar Martin Ågren1-1/+1
The previous patch taught `git tag` to only respect `pager.tag` in list-mode. That patch left the default value of `pager.tag` at "off". After that patch, it makes sense to let the default value be "on" instead, since it will help with listing many tags, but will not hurt users of `git tag -a` as it would have before. Make that change. Update documentation and tests. Signed-off-by: Martin Ågren <martin.agren@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2017-08-03tag: respect `pager.tag` in list-mode onlyLibravatar Martin Ågren1-0/+3
Using, e.g., `git -c pager.tag tag -a new-tag` results in errors such as "Vim: Warning: Output is not to a terminal" and a garbled terminal. Someone who makes use of both `git tag -a` and `git tag -l` will probably not set `pager.tag`, so that `git tag -a` will actually work, at the cost of not paging output of `git tag -l`. Use the mechanisms introduced in two earlier patches to ignore `pager.tag` in git.c and let the `git tag` builtin handle it on its own. Only respect `pager.tag` when running in list-mode. There is a window between where the pager is started before and after this patch. This means that early errors can behave slightly different before and after this patch. Since operation-parsing has to happen inside this window, this can be seen with `git -c pager.tag="echo pager is used" tag -l --unknown-option`. This change in paging-behavior should be acceptable since it only affects erroneous usages. Update the documentation and update tests. If an alias is used to run `git tag -a`, then `pager.tag` will still be respected. Document this known breakage. It will be fixed in a later commit. Add a similar test for `-l`, which works.
