2007-03-04user-manual: how to replace commits older than most recentLibravatar J. Bruce Fields1-0/+46
"Modifying" an old commit by checking it out, --amend'ing it, then rebasing on top of it, is a slightly cumbersome technique, but I've found it useful frequently enough to make it seem worth documenting. Signed-off-by: "J. Bruce Fields" <bfields@citi.umich.edu> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2007-03-04user-manual: insert earlier of mention content-addressable architectureLibravatar J. Bruce Fields1-9/+15
The content-addressable design is too important not to be worth at least a brief mention a little earlier on. Signed-off-by: "J. Bruce Fields" <bfields@citi.umich.edu> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2007-03-04user-manual: ensure generated manual references stylesheetLibravatar J. Bruce Fields1-1/+4
The generated user manual is rather hard to read thanks to the lack of the css that's supposed to be included from docbook-xsl.css. I'm totally ignorant of the toolchain; grubbing through xmlto and related scripts, the easiest way I could find to ensure that the generated html links to the stylesheet is by calling xsltproc directly. Maybe there's some better way. Signed-off-by: "J. Bruce Fields" <bfields@citi.umich.edu> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2007-03-04user-manual: reset to ORIG_HEAD not HEAD to undo mergeLibravatar J. Bruce Fields1-1/+1
As Linus pointed out recently on the mailing list, git reset --hard HEAD^ doesn't undo a merge in the case where the merge did a fast-forward. So the rcommendation here is a little dangerous. Signed-off-by: "J. Bruce Fields" <bfields@citi.umich.edu> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

2007-03-02Add core.symlinks to mark filesystems that do not support symbolic links.Libravatar Johannes Sixt2-0/+12
Some file systems that can host git repositories and their working copies do not support symbolic links. But then if the repository contains a symbolic link, it is impossible to check out the working copy. This patch enables partial support of symbolic links so that it is possible to check out a working copy on such a file system. A new flag core.symlinks (which is true by default) can be set to false to indicate that the filesystem does not support symbolic links. In this case, symbolic links that exist in the trees are checked out as small plain files, and checking in modifications of these files preserve the symlink property in the database (as long as an entry exists in the index). Of course, this does not magically make symbolic links work on such defective file systems; hence, this solution does not help if the working copy relies on that an entry is a real symbolic link.

Adding dependencies on included files to the generated man pages is wrong - includes are processed by asciidoc, therefore the intermediate Docbook XML files really depend on included files.

To name a commit, you can now say $ git rev-parse ':/Initial revision of "git"' and it will return the hash of the youngest commit whose commit message (the oneline) begins with the given prefix. For future extension, a leading exclamation mark is treated specially: if you want to match a commit message starting with a '!', just repeat the exclamation mark.

2007-02-24Fixup no-progress for fetch & cloneLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-4/+1
The intent of the commit 'fetch & clone: do not output progress when not on a tty' was to make fetching and cloning less chatty when output was not redirected (such as in a cron job). However, there was a serious thinko in that commit. It assumed that the client _and_ the server got this update at the same time. But this is obviously not the case, and therefore upload-pack died on seeing the option "--no-progress". This patch fixes that issue by making it a protocol option. So, until your server is updated, you still see the progress, but once the server has this patch, it will be quiet. A minor issue was also fixed: when cloning, the checkout did not heed no_progress.
