2019-04-02git-checkout.txt: fix monospace typesetLibravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-81/+81
Add backticks where we have none, replace single quotes with backticks and replace double-quotes. Drop double-quotes from nested constructions such as `"@{-1}"`.

2019-04-02doc: document --overwrite-ignoreLibravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy2-0/+11
I added this option in git-checkout and git-merge in c1d7036b6b (checkout,merge: disallow overwriting ignored files with --no-overwrite-ignore - 2011-11-27) but did not remember to update documentation.

2019-04-02git-checkout.txt: fix one syntax lineLibravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-1/+1
<branch> can be omitted in this syntax, and it's actually documented a few paragraphs down: You could omit <branch>, in which case the command degenerates to "check out the current branch", which is a glorified no-op with rather expensive side-effects to show only the tracking information, if exists, for the current branch.

2019-02-21merge-options.txt: correct wording of --no-commit optionLibravatar Elijah Newren1-3/+8
The former wording implied that --no-commit would always cause the merge operation to "pause" and allow the user to make further changes and/or provide a special commit message for the merge commit. This is not the case for fast-forward merges, as there is no merge commit to create. Without a merge commit, there is no place where it makes sense to "stop the merge and allow the user to tweak changes"; doing that would require a full rebase of some sort. Since users may be unaware of whether their branches have diverged or not, modify the wording to correctly address fast-forward cases as well and suggest using --no-ff with --no-commit if the point is to ensure that the merge stops before completing.

2019-02-07log,diff-tree: add --combined-all-paths optionLibravatar Elijah Newren4-5/+46
The combined diff format for merges will only list one filename, even if rename or copy detection is active. For example, with raw format one might see: ::100644 100644 100644 fabadb8 cc95eb0 4866510 MM describe.c ::100755 100755 100755 52b7a2d 6d1ac04 d2ac7d7 RM bar.sh ::100644 100644 100644 e07d6c5 9042e82 ee91881 RR phooey.c This doesn't let us know what the original name of bar.sh was in the first parent, and doesn't let us know what either of the original names of phooey.c were in either of the parents. In contrast, for non-merge commits, raw format does provide original filenames (and a rename score to boot). In order to also provide original filenames for merge commits, add a --combined-all-paths option (which must be used with either -c or --cc, and is likely only useful with rename or copy detection active) so that we can print tab-separated filenames when renames are involved. This transforms the above output to: ::100644 100644 100644 fabadb8 cc95eb0 4866510 MM desc.c desc.c desc.c ::100755 100755 100755 52b7a2d 6d1ac04 d2ac7d7 RM foo.sh bar.sh bar.sh ::100644 100644 100644 e07d6c5 9042e82 ee91881 RR fooey.c fuey.c phooey.c Further, in patch format, this changes the from/to headers so that instead of just having one "from" header, we get one for each parent. For example, instead of having --- a/phooey.c +++ b/phooey.c we would see --- a/fooey.c --- a/fuey.c +++ b/phooey.c Signed-off-by: Elijah Newren <newren@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
