* maint: Use =20 when rfc2047 encoding spaces. Create a new manpage for the gitignore format, and reference it elsewhere Documentation: robustify asciidoc GIT_VERSION replacement
2007-06-02Create a new manpage for the gitignore format, and reference it elsewhereLibravatar Josh Triplett8-101/+145
Only git-ls-files(1) describes the gitignore format in detail, and it does so with reference to git-ls-files options. Most users don't use the plumbing command git-ls-files directly, and shouldn't have to look in its manpage for information on the gitignore format. Create a new manpage gitignore(5) (Documentation/gitignore.txt), and factor out the gitignore documentation into that file, changing it to refer to .gitignore and $GIT_DIR/info/exclude as used by porcelain commands. Reference gitignore(5) from other relevant manpages and documentation. Remove now-redundant information on exclude patterns from git-ls-files(1), leaving only information on how git-ls-files options specify exclude patterns and what precedence they have.

2007-06-02Documentation: robustify asciidoc GIT_VERSION replacementLibravatar Jeff King2-5/+3
Instead of using sed on the resulting file, we now have a git_version asciidoc attribute. This means that we don't pipe the output of asciidoc, which means we can detect build failures. Problem reported by Scott Lamb, solution suggested by Jonas Fonseca. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

2007-05-29cvsserver: Note that CVS_SERVER can also be specified as method variableLibravatar Frank Lichtenheld1-1/+11
Reasonably new versions of the cvs CLI client allow one to specifiy CVS_SERVER as a method variable directly in CVSROOT. This is way more convinient than using an environment variable since it gets saved in CVS/Root. Since I only discovered this by accident I guess there might be others out there that learnt CVS on the 1.11 series (or even earlier) and profit from such a note about cvs improvements in the last couple years.

2007-05-21Teach git-describe how to run name-revLibravatar Shawn O. Pearce2-1/+13
Often users want to know not which tagged version a commit came after, but which tagged version a commit is contained within. This latter task is the job of git-name-rev, but most users are looking to git-describe to do the job. Junio suggested we make `git describe --contains` run the correct tool, `git name-rev`, and that's exactly what we do here. The output of name-rev was adjusted slightly through the new --name-only option, allowing describe to execv into name-rev and maintain its current output format. Signed-off-by: Shawn O.

2007-05-20Add an option to git-ls-tree to display also the size of blobLibravatar Jakub Narebski1-1/+13
Add -l/--long option to git-ls-tree command, which displays object size of a blob entry. Object size is placed after object id (left-justified with minimum width of 7 characters). For non-blob entries `-' is used. Rationale: for non-blob entries size of an object has no much meaning, and is not very interesting. Moreover, in planned pack v4 tree objects would be constructed on demand, so tree size would need to be calculated.
