2011-03-22git-am.txt: advertise 'git am --abort' instead of 'rm .git/rebase-apply'Libravatar SZEDER Gábor1-3/+3
'git am --abort' is around for quite a long time now, and users should normally not poke around inside the .git directory, yet the documentation of 'git am' still recommends the following: ... if you decide to start over from scratch, run `rm -f -r .git/rebase-apply` ... Suggest 'git am --abort' instead. It's not quite the same as the original, because 'git am --abort' will restore the original branch, while simply removing '.git/rebase-apply' won't, but that's rather a thinko in the original wording, because that won't actually "start over _from scratch_".

2011-03-14Documentation: "rebase <onto> <that>" stays on <that> branch upon exitLibravatar Drew Northup1-2/+3
This change makes it clearer that the change to the history effected by executing 'git rebase master' while on 'topic' branch, and by executing 'git rebase master topic' on any branch, will be the same; the implicit checkout of the second form will remain after the rebase exits.

2011-03-12docs: point git.txt author credits to git-scm.comLibravatar Jeff King1-2/+4
There is a nice shortlog-ish output of the authors there. We also point people directly to shortlog, but of course they might be reading the documentation online or from a binary package of git.
2011-03-11doc: add missing git footersLibravatar Jeff King5-0/+20
Almost every page has a footer that links back to the main git(1) page. Let's add it on the few that are missing it.
2011-03-11doc: drop author/documentation sections from most pagesLibravatar Jeff King134-1134/+4
The point of these sections is generally to: 1. Give credit where it is due. 2. Give the reader an idea of where to ask questions or file bug reports. But they don't do a good job of either case. For (1), they are out of date and incomplete. A much more accurate answer can be gotten through shortlog or blame. For (2), the correct contact point is generally git@vger, and even if you wanted to cc the contact point, the out-of-date and incomplete fields mean you're likely sending to somebody useless. So let's drop the fields entirely from all manpages except git(1) itself. We already point people to the mailing list for bug reports there, and we can update the Authors section to give credit to the major contributors and point to shortlog and blame for more information. Each page has a "This is part of git" footer, so people can follow that to the main git manpage.

2011-03-10Revert "core.abbrevguard: Ensure short object names stay unique a bit longer"Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-9/+0
This reverts commit 72a5b561fc1c4286bc7c5b0693afc076af261e1f, as adding fixed number of hexdigits more than necessary to make one object name locally unique does not help in futureproofing the uniqueness of names we generate today. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

Earlier, 47afed5 (SubmittingPatches: itemize and reflect upon well written changes, 2009-04-28) added a discussion on the contents of the commit log message, but the last part of the new paragraph didn't make much sense. Reword it slightly to make it more readable. Update the "quicklist" to clarify what we mean by "motivation" and "contrast". Also mildly discourage external references.

2011-03-08diff format documentation: clarify --cc and -cLibravatar Adam Monsen1-4/+7
The description was unclear if -c or --cc was the default (--cc is for some commands), and incorrectly implied that the default applies to all the diff generating commands. Most importantly, "log" does not default to "--cc" (it defaults to "--no-merges") and "log -p" obeys the user's wish to see non-combined format. Only "diff" (during merge and three-blob comparison) and "show" use --cc as the default. Signed-off-by: Adam Monsen <haircut@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2011-03-02rerere forget: deprecate invocation without pathspecLibravatar Johannes Sixt1-2/+2
rerere forget is a destructive command. When invoked without a path, it operates on the current directory, potentially deleting many recorded conflict resolutions. To make the command safer, a path must be specified as of git 1.8.0. Until then, give users time to write 'git rerere forget .' if they really mean the entire current directory.
