* maint-1.7.6: Documentation: rerere.enabled is the primary way to configure rerere
2012-01-06Documentation: rerere.enabled is the primary way to configure rerereLibravatar Thomas Rast1-4/+4
The wording seems to suggest that creating the directory is needed and the setting of rerere.enabled is only for disabling the feature by setting it to 'false'. But the configuration is meant to be the primary control and setting it to 'true' will enable it; the rr-cache directory will be created as necessary and the user does not have to create it.

2011-10-23RelNotes/1.7.7.1: setgid bit patch is about fixing "git init" via Makefile ↵Libravatar Jonathan Nieder1-2/+3
setting The change was actually about "git init -s" which sets the setgid bit on SysV-style systems to allow shared access to a repository, and can provoke errors on BSD-style systems, depending on how permissive the filesystem in use wants to be. More to the point, the patch was just taking a fix that arrived for FreeBSD in v1.5.5 days and making it also apply to machines using an (obscure) GNU userland/FreeBSD kernel mixture.

2011-09-26git-read-tree.txt: update sparse checkout examplesLibravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-2/+2
The negation example uses '*' to match everything. This used to work before 9037026 (unpack-trees: fix sparse checkout's "unable to match directories") because back then, the list of paths is used to match sparse patterns, so with the patterns * !subdir/ subdir/ always matches any path that start with subdir/ and "*" has no chance to get tested. The result is subdir is excluded. After the said commit, a tree structure is dynamically created and sparse pattern matching now follows closely how read_directory() applies .gitignore. This solves one problem, but reveals another one. With this new strategy, "!subdir/" rule will be only tested once when "subdir" directory is examined. Entries inside subdir, when examined, will match "*" and are (correctly) re-added again because any rules without a slash will match at every directory level. In the end, "*" can revert every negation rules. In order to correctly exclude subdir, we must use /* !subdir to limit "match all" rule at top level only. "*" rule has no actual use in sparse checkout and can be confusing to users. While we can automatically turn "*" to "/*", this violates .gitignore definition. Instead, discourage "*" in favor of "/*" (in the second example). Signed-off-by: Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy <pclouds@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2011-09-26mergetool: Use args as pathspec to unmerged filesLibravatar Jonathon Mah1-3/+4
Mergetool now treats its path arguments as a pathspec (like other git subcommands), restricting action to the given files and directories. Files matching the pathspec are filtered so mergetool only acts on unmerged paths; previously it would assume each path argument was in an unresolved state, and get confused when it couldn't check out their other stages. Running "git mergetool subdir" will prompt to resolve all conflicted blobs under subdir.

2011-09-21git-read-tree.txt: correct sparse-checkout and skip-worktree descriptionLibravatar Michael J Gruber1-4/+4
The description of .git/info/sparse-checkout and skip-worktree is exactly the opposite of what is true, which is: If a file matches a pattern in sparse-checkout, then (it is to be checked out and therefore) skip-worktree is unset for that file; otherwise, it is set (so that it is not checked out). Currently, the opposite is documented, and (consistently) read-tree's behavior with respect to bit flips is descibed incorrectly. Fix it. In hindsight, it would have been much better to have a "sparse-ignore" or "sparse-skip" file so that an empty file would mean a full checkout, and the file logic would be analogous to that of .gitignore, excludes and skip-worktree.

2011-09-14refactor argv_array into generic codeLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+46
The submodule code recently grew generic code to build a dynamic argv array. Many other parts of the code can reuse this, too, so let's make it generically available. There are two enhancements not found in the original code: 1. We now handle the NULL-termination invariant properly, even when no strings have been pushed (before, you could have an empty, NULL argv). This was not a problem for the submodule code, which always pushed at least one argument, but was not sufficiently safe for generic code. 2. There is a formatted variant of the "push" function. This is a convenience function which was not needed by the submodule code, but will make it easier to port other users to the new code.

2011-09-13git-svn: teach git-svn to populate svn:mergeinfoLibravatar Bryan Jacobs1-0/+8
Allow git-svn to populate the svn:mergeinfo property automatically in a narrow range of circumstances. Specifically, when dcommitting a revision with multiple parents, all but (potentially) the first of which have been committed to SVN in the same repository as the target of the dcommit. In this case, the merge info is the union of that given by each of the parents, plus all changes introduced to the first parent by the other parents. In all other cases where a revision to be committed has multiple parents, cause "git svn dcommit" to raise an error rather than completing the commit and potentially losing history information in the upstream SVN repository. This behavior is disabled by default, and can be enabled by setting the svn.pushmergeinfo config option.
