* maint: t1010-mktree: Adjust expected result to code and documentation combined diff: correctly handle truncated file Document new "already-merged" rule for branch -d
2010-04-15Document new "already-merged" rule for branch -dLibravatar Jonathan Nieder1-1/+3
v1.7.0-rc0~18^2 (branch -d: base the "already-merged" safety on the branch it merges with, 2009-12-29) taught ‘git branch’ a new heuristic for when it is safe to delete a branch without forcing the issue. It is safe to delete a branch "topic" without second thought if: - the branch "topic" is set up to pull from a (remote-tracking, usually) branch and is fully merged in that "upstream" branch, or - there is no branch.topic.merge configuration and branch "topic" is fully merged in the current HEAD. Update the man page to acknowledge the new rules. Signed-off-by: Jonathan Nieder <jrnieder@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

- use "<options>" instead of just "options". - use "[<repository> [<refspec>...]]" to indicate that <repository> and <refspec> are optional, and that <refspec> cannot be specified without specifying <repository>. Note that when called without specifying <repository> (eg. "git fetch -f"), it is accurate to say that the "git fetch [<options>] [<repository> ...]" case takes precedence over "git fetch [<options>] <group>".

Even if you use imap-send to throw your drafts in the outbox, using their web interface will mangle your patches. Clarify that the imap-send is meant to be used together with a real MUA that can use IMAP drafts, and remove instructions related to the web interface, which is irrelevant. Add description of send-email as an alternative. Use --cover-letter, and do not use -C nor --no-color, on the example command line for format-patch. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2010-03-24Teach rebase the --no-ff option.Libravatar Marc Branchaud2-2/+111
For git-rebase.sh, --no-ff is a synonym for --force-rebase. For git-rebase--interactive.sh, --no-ff cherry-picks all the commits in the rebased branch, instead of fast-forwarding over any unchanged commits. --no-ff offers an alternative way to deal with reverted merges. Instead of "reverting the revert" you can use "rebase --no-ff" to recreate the branch with entirely new commits (they're new because at the very least the committer time is different). This obviates the need to revert the reversion, as you can re-merge the new topic branch directly. Added an addendum to revert-a-faulty-merge.txt describing the situation and how to use --no-ff to handle it.

There is a documented limitation on the body of any email not being able to contain lines starting with "From ". This patch removes that limitation by improving the parser to search for "From", "Date", and "Subject" fields in the email before considering it to be an email.

2010-03-21Documentation/git-clone: Transform description list into item listLibravatar Michael J Gruber1-5/+5
so that the list of examples is formatted in the same way as for git-fetch, and, more importantly, the different identation for the code blocks in the examples (compared to the immediately preceding code blocks from url.txt) doesn't look like misformatted, but is clarified by the items' bullets.

2010-03-21Documentation/urls: Remove spurious example markersLibravatar Michael J Gruber1-6/+0
In urls.txt (which is included from git-{clone,fetch,push}.txt) several item lists are surrounded by example block markers. This is problematic for two reasons: - None of these lists are example lists, so they should not be marked as such semantically. - The html output looks weird (bulleted list with left sidebar). Therefore, remove the example block markers. Output by the man backend is unaffected. Signed-off-by: Michael J Gruber <git@drmicha.warpmail.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
