Fix an unintended regression in v2.9 that breaks "clone --depth" that recurses down to submodules by forcing the submodules to also be cloned shallowly, which many server instances that host upstream of the submodules are not prepared for. * sb/clone-shallow-passthru: clone: do not let --depth imply --shallow-submodules

2016-07-06Merge branch 'jk/repack-keep-unreachable'Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+13
"git repack" learned the "--keep-unreachable" option, which sends loose unreachable objects to a pack instead of leaving them loose.

Similarly to the previous commit, use backquotes instead of forward-quotes, for long options.

2016-06-28doc: typeset short command-line options as literalLibravatar Matthieu Moy23-52/+52
It was common in our documentation to surround short option names with forward quotes, which renders as italic in HTML. Instead, use backquotes which renders as monospace.

2016-06-24log: add log.showSignature configuration variableLibravatar Mehul Jain1-0/+4
Users may want to always use "--show-signature" while using git-log and related commands. When log.showSignature is set to true, git-log and related commands will behave as if "--show-signature" was given to them. Note that this config variable is meant to affect git-log, git-show, git-whatchanged and git-reflog. Other commands like git-format-patch, git-rev-list are not to be affected by this config variable.

2016-06-23color: support strike-through attributeLibravatar Jeff King1-2/+3

2016-06-23color: support "italic" attributeLibravatar Jeff King1-4/+5
We already support bold, underline, and similar attributes. Let's add italic to the mix. According to the Wikipedia page on ANSI colors, this attribute is "not widely supported", but it does seem to work on my xterm. We don't have to bump the maximum color size because we were already over-allocating it (but we do adjust the comment appropriately).

2016-06-23color: allow "no-" for negating attributesLibravatar Jeff King1-1/+1
Using "no-bold" rather than "nobold" is easier to read and more natural to type (to me, anyway, even though I was the person who introduced "nobold" in the first place). It's easy to allow both. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2016-06-23doc: refactor description of color formatLibravatar Jeff King1-21/+26
This is a general cleanup of the description of colors in git-config, mostly to address inaccuracies and confusion that had grown over time: - you can have many attributes, not just one - the discussion flip-flopped between colors and attributes; now we discuss everything about colors, then everything about attributes - many concepts were lumped into the first paragraph, making it hard to read, and especially to find the actual lists of colors and attributes. I stopped short of breaking those out into their own lists, as it seemed like an excessive use of vertical screen real estate. - we introduced negated attributes, but then the next paragraph basically explains how each item starts off with no attributes. So why would one need negated attributes? We now explain. - minor typo, language, and typography fixes Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2016-06-20clone: do not let --depth imply --shallow-submodulesLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-3/+2
In v2.9.0, we prematurely flipped the default to force cloning submodules shallowly, when the superproject is getting cloned shallowly. This is likely to fail when the upstream repositories submodules are cloned from a repository that is not prepared to serve histories that ends at a commit that is not at the tip of a branch, and we know the world is not yet ready. Use a safer default to clone the submodules fully, unless the user tells us that she knows that the upstream repository of the submodules are willing to cooperate with "--shallow-submodules" option.
