2015-03-06commit/status: show the index-worktree diff with -v -vLibravatar Michael J Gruber1-0/+4
git commit and git status in long format show the diff between HEAD and the index when given -v. This allows previewing a commit to be made. They also list tracked files with unstaged changes, but without a diff. Introduce '-v -v' which shows the diff between the index and the worktree in addition to the HEAD index diff. This allows a review of unstaged changes which might be missing from the commit. In the case of '-v -v', additonal header lines Changes to be committed: and Changes not staged for commit: are inserted before the diffs, which are equal to those in the status part; the latter preceded by 50*"-" to make it stick out more.

2015-03-05reflog_expire(): ignore --updateref for symbolic referencesLibravatar Michael Haggerty1-1/+2
If we are expiring reflog entries for a symbolic reference, then how should --updateref be handled if the newest reflog entry is expired? Option 1: Update the referred-to reference. (This is what the current code does.) This doesn't make sense, because the referred-to reference has its own reflog, which hasn't been rewritten. Option 2: Update the symbolic reference itself (as in, REF_NODEREF). This would convert the symbolic reference into a non-symbolic reference (e.g., detaching HEAD), which is surely not what a user would expect. Option 3: Error out. This is plausible, but it would make the following usage impossible: git reflog expire ... --updateref --all Option 4: Ignore --updateref for symbolic references. We choose to implement option 4. Note: another problem in this code will be fixed in a moment.

2015-03-02submodule: improve documentation of update subcommandLibravatar Michal Sojka3-37/+64
The documentation of 'git submodule update' has several problems: 1) It mentions that value 'none' of submodule.$name.update can be overridden by --checkout, but other combinations of configuration values and command line options are not mentioned. 2) The documentation of submodule.$name.update is scattered across three places, which is confusing. 3) The documentation of submodule.$name.update in gitmodules.txt is incorrect, because the code always uses the value from .git/config and never from .gitmodules. 4) Documentation of --force was incomplete, because it is only effective in case of checkout method of update. Fix all these problems by documenting submodule.*.update in git-submodule.txt and make everybody else refer to it.
