2015-08-24rev-list: make it obvious that we do not support notesLibravatar Jeff King3-0/+6
The rev-list command does not have the internal infrastructure to display notes. Running: git rev-list --notes HEAD will silently ignore the "--notes" option. Running: git rev-list --notes --grep=. HEAD will crash on an assert. Running: git rev-list --format=%N HEAD will place a literal "%N" in the output (it does not even expand to an empty string). Let's have rev-list tell the user that it cannot fill the user's request, rather than silently producing wrong data. Likewise, let's remove mention of the notes options from the rev-list documentation. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2015-08-19Merge branch 'ib/scripted-parse-opt-better-hint-string' into maintLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-2/+2
The "rev-parse --parseopt" mode parsed the option specification and the argument hint in a strange way to allow '=' and other special characters in the option name while forbidding them from the argument hint. This made it impossible to define an option like "--pair <key>=<value>" with "pair=key=value" specification, which instead would have defined a "--pair=key <value>" option. * ib/scripted-parse-opt-better-hint-string: rev-parse --parseopt: allow [*=?!] in argument hints

A "rebase" replays changes of the local branch on top of something else, as such they are placed in stage #3 and referred to as "theirs", while the changes in the new base, typically a foreign work, are placed in stage #2 and referred to as "ours". Clarify the "checkout --ours/--theirs". * se/doc-checkout-ours-theirs: checkout: document subtlety around --ours/--theirs

2015-07-28Documentation/git-tools: retire manually-maintained listLibravatar Eric Sunshine1-81/+7
When Git was young, people looking for third-party Git-related tools came to the Git project itself to find them, so it made sense to maintain a list of tools here. These days, however, search engines fill that role much more efficiently, so retire the manually-maintained list. The list of front-ends and tools on the Git wiki rates perhaps a distant second to search engines, and may still have value, so retain a reference to it.

2015-07-28Documentation/git-tools: improve discoverability of Git wikiLibravatar Eric Sunshine1-6/+3
These days, the best way to find Git-related tools is via a search engine. The Git wiki may be a distant second, and git-tools.txt falls in last place. Therefore, promote the Git wiki reference to the top of git-tools.txt so the reader will encounter it first, rather than hiding it away at the very bottom.

2015-07-25Documentation/git: drop outdated Cogito referenceLibravatar Eric Sunshine1-1/+1
Cogito hasn't been maintained since late 2006, so drop the reference to it. The warning that SCMS front-ends might override listed environment variables, however, may still be valuable, so keep it but generalize the wording.

2015-07-24Revert "git-am: add am.threeWay config variable"Libravatar Junio C Hamano2-13/+2
This reverts commit d96a275b91bae1800cd43be0651e886e7e042a17. It used to be possible to apply a patch series with "git am mbox" and then only after seeing a failure, switch to three-way mode via "git am -3" (no other options or arguments). The commit being reverted broke this workflow. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2015-07-17Merge branch 'es/worktree-add'Libravatar Junio C Hamano2-5/+6
Update to the "linked checkout" in 2.5.0-rc1. Instead of "checkout --to" that does not do what "checkout" normally does, move the functionality to "git worktree add". As this makes the end-user experience of the "worktree add" more or less complete, I am tempted to say we should cook the other topic that removes the internal "new-worktree-mode" hack from "checkout" a bit longer in 'next', and release 2.5 final without that one. * es/worktree-add: Documentation/git: fix stale "MULTIPLE CHECKOUT MODE" reference worktree: caution that this is still experimental Documentation/git-worktree: fix stale "git checkout --to" references

2015-07-15rev-parse --parseopt: allow [*=?!] in argument hintsLibravatar Ilya Bobyr1-2/+2
A line in the input to "rev-parse --parseopt" describes an option by listing a short and/or long name, optional flags [*=?!], argument hint, and then whitespace and help string. We did not allow any of the [*=?!] characters in the argument hints. The following input pair=key=value equals sign in the hint used to generate a help line like this: --pair=key <value> equals sign in the hint and used to expect "pair=key" as the argument name. That is not very helpful as we generally do not want any of the [*=?!] characters in the argument names. But we do want to use at least the equals sign in the argument hints. Update the parser to make long argument names stop at the first [*=?!] character. Add test case with equals sign in the argument hint and update the test to perform all the operations in test_expect_success matching the t/README requirements and allowing commands like ./t1502-rev-parse-parseopt.sh --run=1-2 to stop at the test case 2 without any further modification of the test state area.
