2008-11-02format-patch documentation: mention the special case of showing a single commitLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-1/+2
Even long timers seem to have missed that "format-patch -1 $commit" is a much simpler and more obvious way to say "format-patch $commit^..$commit" from the current documentation (and an example "format-patch -3 $commit" to get three patches). Add an explicit instruction in a much earlier part of the documentation to make it easier to find. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2008-11-02Introduce receive.denyDeletesLibravatar Jan Krüger1-0/+4
Occasionally, it may be useful to prevent branches from getting deleted from a centralized repository, particularly when no administrative access to the server is available to undo it via reflog. It also makes receive.denyNonFastForwards more useful if it is used for access control since it prevents force-updating by deleting and re-creating a ref.

Gmail is one of the most popular email providers in the world. Now that Gmail supports IMAP, sending properly formatted patches via `git imap-send` is trivial.

2008-10-31Documentation: clarify information about 'ident' attributeLibravatar Jan Krüger1-2/+2
The documentation spoke of the attribute being set "to" a path; this can mistakenly be interpreted as "the attribute needs to have its value set to some kind of path". This clarifies things. Signed-off-by: Jan Krüger <jk@jk.gs> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

Insert an empty <simpara> in manpages after code blocks to force and empty line. The problem can be seen on the manpage for the git tutorial, where an example command and the following paragraph is printed with no empty line between them: First, note that you can get documentation for a command such as git log --graph with: $ man git-log It is a good idea to introduce yourself to git [...] Signed-off-by: Jonas Fonseca <fonseca@diku.dk> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2008-10-24git-daemon: set REMOTE_ADDR to client addressLibravatar Joey Hess1-0/+9
This allows hooks like pre-receive to look at the client's IP address. Of course the IP address can't be used to get strong security; git-daemon isn't the right thing to use if you need that. However, basic IP address checking can be good enough in some situations. REMOTE_ADDR is the same environment variable used to communicate the client's address to CGI scripts.

2008-10-22git-remote: list branches in vertical listsLibravatar Johannes Sixt1-1/+3
Previously, branches were listed on a single line in each section. But if there are many branches, then horizontal, line-wrapped lists are very inconvenient to scan for a human. This makes the lists vertical, i.e one branch per line is printed. Since "git remote" is porcelain, we can easily make this backwards-incompatible change.

2008-10-21builtin-blame: Reencode commit messages according to git-log rules.Libravatar Alexander Gavrilov2-3/+10
Currently git-blame outputs text from the commit messages (e.g. the author name and the summary string) as-is, without even providing any information about the encoding used for the data. It makes interpreting the data in multilingual environment very difficult. This commit changes the blame implementation to recode the messages using the rules used by other commands like git-log. Namely, the target encoding can be specified through the i18n.commitEncoding or i18n.logOutputEncoding options, or directly on the command line using the --encoding parameter. Converting the encoding before output seems to be more friendly to the porcelain tools than simply providing the value of the encoding header, and does not require changing the output format. If anybody needs the old behavior, it is possible to achieve it by specifying --encoding=none.

2008-10-18format-patch: autonumber by defaultLibravatar Brian Gernhardt2-7/+10
format-patch is most commonly used for multiple patches at once when sending a patchset, in which case we want to number the patches; on the other hand, single patches are not usually expected to be numbered. In other words, the typical behavior expected from format-patch is the one obtained by enabling autonumber, so we set it to be the default. Users that want to disable numbering for a particular patchset can do so with the existing -N command-line switch. Users that want to change the default behavior can use the format.numbering config key.

2008-10-17describe: Make --tags and --all match lightweight tags more oftenLibravatar Shawn O. Pearce1-2/+7
If the caller supplies --tags they want the lightweight, unannotated tags to be searched for a match. If a lightweight tag is closer in the history, it should be matched, even if an annotated tag is reachable further back in the commit chain. The same applies with --all when matching any other type of ref. Signed-off-by: Shawn O.
