2006-05-21tutorial: add discussion of index file, object databaseLibravatar J. Bruce Fields3-6/+414
Add a sequel to tutorial.txt which discusses the index file and the object database. Signed-off-by: J. Bruce Fields <bfields@citi.umich.edu> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2006-05-21tutorial: expanded discussion of commit historyLibravatar J. Bruce Fields1-53/+112
Expand the history-browsing section of the tutorial a bit, in part to address Junio's suggestion that we mention "git grep" and Linus's complaint that people are missing the flexibility of the commandline interfaces for selecting commits. This reads a little more like a collection of examples than a "tutorial", but maybe that's what people need at this point. Signed-off-by: J. Bruce Fields <bfields@citi.umich.edu> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

2006-05-21Elaborate on why ':' is a bad idea in a ref name.Libravatar Shawn Pearce1-0/+2
With the new cat-file syntax of 'v1.3.3:refs.c' we should mention it as part of the reason why ':' is not permitted in a ref name. Signed-off-by: Shawn O. Pearce <spearce@spearce.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2006-05-21Reference git-check-ref-format in git-branch.Libravatar Shawn Pearce2-1/+7
Its nice to have git-check-ref-format actually get mentioned in git-branch's documentation as the syntax of a ref name must conform to what is described in git-check-ref-format. Signed-off-by: Shawn O. Pearce <spearce@spearce.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

* eb/quilt: Implement a --dry-run option to git-quiltimport Implement git-quiltimport
2006-05-19Enable ref log creation in git checkout -b.Libravatar Shawn Pearce1-1/+6
Switch git checkout -b to use git-update-ref rather than echo and a shell I/O redirection. This is more in line with typical GIT commands and allows -b to be logged according to the normal ref logging rules. Added -l option to allow users to create the ref log at the same time as creating a branch. Signed-off-by: Shawn O. Pearce <spearce@spearce.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2006-05-19Create/delete branch ref logs.Libravatar Shawn Pearce1-2/+8
When crating a new branch offer '-l' as a way for the user to quickly enable ref logging for the new branch. When deleting a branch also delete its ref log. Signed-off-by: Shawn O. Pearce <spearce@spearce.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2006-05-19Change order of -m option to update-ref.Libravatar Shawn Pearce1-1/+1
The actual position doesn't matter but most people prefer to see options appear before the arguments. Signed-off-by: Shawn O. Pearce <spearce@spearce.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2006-05-19Change 'master@noon' syntax to 'master@{noon}'.Libravatar Shawn Pearce1-5/+6
Its ambiguous to parse "master@2006-05-17 18:30:foo" when foo is meant as a file name and ":30" is meant as 30 minutes past 6 pm. Therefore all date specifications in a sha1 expression must now appear within brackets and the ':' splitter used for the path name in a sha1 expression ignores ':' appearing within brackets.

2006-05-18Implement a --dry-run option to git-quiltimportLibravatar Eric W. Biederman1-1/+7
Since large quilt trees like -mm can easily have patches without clear authorship information, add a --dry-run option to make the problem patches easy to find. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2006-05-18Implement git-quiltimportLibravatar Eric W. Biederman1-0/+55
Importing a quilt patch series into git is not very difficult but parsing the patch descriptions and all of the other minutia take a bit of effort to get right, so this automates it. Since git and quilt complement each other it makes sense to make it easy to go back and forth between the two. If a patch is encountered that it cannot derive the author from the user is asked.

2006-05-17Support 'master@2 hours ago' syntaxLibravatar Shawn Pearce1-0/+6
Extended sha1 expressions may now include date specifications which indicate a point in time within the local repository's history. If the ref indicated to the left of '@' has a log in $GIT_DIR/logs/<ref> then the value of the ref at the time indicated by the specification is obtained from the ref's log. Signed-off-by: Shawn O. Pearce <spearce@spearce.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2006-05-17Log ref updates to logs/refs/<ref>Libravatar Shawn Pearce2-0/+34
If config parameter core.logAllRefUpdates is true or the log file already exists then append a line to ".git/logs/refs/<ref>" whenever git-update-ref <ref> is executed. Each log line contains the following information: oldsha1 <SP> newsha1 <SP> committer <LF> where committer is the current user, date, time and timezone in the standard GIT ident format. If the caller is unable to append to the log file then git-update-ref will fail without updating <ref>. An optional message may be included in the log line with the -m flag. Signed-off-by: Shawn O. Pearce <spearce@spearce.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2006-05-17Convert update-ref to use ref_lock API.Libravatar Shawn Pearce1-1/+1
This conversion also adds the '-m' switch to update-ref allowing the caller to record why the ref is changing. At present this is merely copied down into the ref_lock API. Signed-off-by: Shawn O. Pearce <spearce@spearce.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

2006-05-14Add "--branches", "--tags" and "--remotes" options to git-rev-parse.Libravatar Sean1-0/+9
"git branch" uses "rev-parse --all" and becomes much too slow when there are many tags (it scans all refs). Use the new "--branches" option of rev-parse to speed things up. Signed-off-by: Sean Estabrooks <seanlkml@sympatico.ca> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

2006-05-08Teach git-clean optional <paths>... parameters.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-1/+4
When optional paths arguments are given, git-clean passes them to underlying git-ls-files; with this, you can say: git clean 'temp-*' to clean only the garbage files whose names begin with 'temp-'. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net> Signed-off-by: Pavel Roskin <proski@gnu.org>

After running 'git-update-index' for some paths, you may want to do the update on the same set of paths again. The new flag --again checks the paths whose index entries are are different from the HEAD commit and updates them from the working tree contents. This was brought up by Carl Worth on #git.

Move incorrect asciidoc level 2 titles back to level 1. Show output of git-name-rev in man page example. Reword sentences that begin with a period (.) in asciidoc numbered lists to work around conversion to man page bug. Mention that git-repack now calls git-prune-packed when the -d option is passed to it. [imap] section headers in the config file example need to be contained in a literal block. imap.pass is the proper config file variable to use, not imap.password.
