2012-01-11mailinfo documentation: accurately describe non -k caseLibravatar Thomas Rast1-7/+18
Since its very first description of -k, the documentation for git-mailinfo claimed that (in the case without -k) after cleaning up bracketed strings [blah], it would insert [PATCH]. It doesn't; on the contrary, one of the important jobs of mailinfo is to remove those strings. Since we're already there, rewrite the paragraph to give a complete enumeration of all the transformations. Specifically, it was missing the whitespace normalization (run of isspace(c) -> ' ') and the removal of leading ':'.

* 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.

2012-01-03write first for-merge ref to FETCH_HEAD firstLibravatar Joey Hess1-1/+1
The FETCH_HEAD refname is supposed to refer to the ref that was fetched and should be merged. However all fetched refs are written to .git/FETCH_HEAD in an arbitrary order, and resolve_ref_unsafe simply takes the first ref as the FETCH_HEAD, which is often the wrong one, when other branches were also fetched. The solution is to write the for-merge ref(s) to FETCH_HEAD first. Then, unless --append is used, the FETCH_HEAD refname behaves as intended. If the user uses --append, they presumably are doing so in order to preserve the old FETCH_HEAD. While we are at it, update an old example in the read-tree documentation that implied that each entry in FETCH_HEAD only has the object name, which is not true for quite a while.

2011-12-27git-p4: document and test submit optionsLibravatar Pete Wyckoff1-2/+6
Clarify there is a -M option, but no -C. These are both configurable through variables. Explain that the allowSubmit variable takes a comma-separated list of branch names. Catch earlier an invalid branch name given as an argument to "git p4 clone". Test option --origin, variable allowSubmit, and explicit master branch name.

2011-12-27git-p4: test and document --use-client-specLibravatar Pete Wyckoff1-1/+4
The depot path is required, even with this option. Make sure git-p4 fails and exits with non-zero. Contents in the specified depot path will be rearranged according to the client spec. Test this and add a note in the docs. Leave an XXX suggesting that this is somewhat confusing behavior that might be good to fix later. Function stripRepoPath() looks at self.useClientSpec. Make sure this is set both for command-line option --use-client-spec and for configuration variable git-p4.useClientSpec. Test this.

2011-12-27git-p4: document and test clone --branchLibravatar Pete Wyckoff1-1/+9
Clone with --branch will not checkout HEAD, unless the branch happens to be called the default refs/remotes/p4/master. The --branch option is most useful with sync; give an example of that. Signed-off-by: Pete Wyckoff <pw@padd.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2011-12-27git-p4: test cloning with two dirs, clarify docLibravatar Pete Wyckoff1-2/+9
Document how git-p4 currently works when specifying multiple depot paths: 1. No branches or directories are named. 2. Conflicting files are silently ignored---the last change wins. 2. Option --destination is required, else the last path is construed to be a directory. 3. Revision specifiers must be the same on all paths for them to take effect. Test this behavior.
