2008-04-29Documentation: point git-prune users to git-gcLibravatar Jeff King2-1/+22
Most users should be using git-gc instead of directly calling prune. For those who really do want more information on pruning, let's point them at git-fsck, which goes into slightly more detail on reachability. And since we're pointing users there, let's make sure reflogs are mentioned in git-fsck(1). Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2008-04-26rev-parse: teach "--verify" to be quiet when using "-q" or "--quiet"Libravatar Christian Couder1-0/+5
Currently "git rev-parse --verify <something>" is often used with its error output redirected to /dev/null. This patch makes it easier to do that. The -q|--quiet option is designed to work the same way as it does for "git symbolic-ref". Signed-off-by: Christian Couder <chriscool@tuxfamily.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2008-04-24doc/git-gc: add a note about what is collectedLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+15
It seems to be a FAQ that people try running git-gc, and then get puzzled about why the size of their .git directory didn't change. This note mentions the reasons why things might unexpectedly get kept. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2008-04-23Linked glossary from cvs-migration pageLibravatar Matt Graham1-1/+2
Coming from CVS, I found the git glossary vital to learning git and learning how terms in git correlate to the cvs terminology with which I am familiar. This patch links the glossary from the cvs-migration page so cvs users will be able to fine the glossary as soon as they start looking at git documents.

2008-04-20Add a remote.*.mirror configuration optionLibravatar Paolo Bonzini3-3/+11
This patch adds a remote.*.mirror configuration option that, when set, automatically puts git-push in --mirror mode for that remote. Furthermore, the option is set automatically by `git remote add --mirror'. The code in remote.c to parse remote.*.skipdefaultupdate had a subtle problem: a comment in the code indicated that special care was needed for boolean options, but this care was not used in parsing the option. Since I was touching related code, I did this fix too.

2008-04-20git-branch: add support for --merged and --no-mergedLibravatar Lars Hjemli1-1/+3
These options filter the output from git branch to only include branches whose tip is either merged or not merged into HEAD. The use-case for these options is when working with integration of branches from many remotes: `git branch --no-merged -a` will show a nice list of merge candidates while `git branch --merged -a` will show the progress of your integration work. Also, a plain `git branch --merged` is a quick way to find local branches which you might want to delete.

2008-04-18Document that WebDAV doesn't need git on the server, and works over SSLLibravatar Matthieu Moy1-12/+33
I managed to set up a Git repository on a preconfigured WebDAV server, and using HTTPS, without installing Git on it or changing the server configuration. This works through a proxy too. This patch reflects this (it previously stated that Git was _necessary_ on the server, which isn't true). Also give a few hints to troubleshoting.

2008-04-16Make core.sharedRepository more genericLibravatar Heikki Orsila2-2/+13
git init --shared=0xxx, where '0xxx' is an octal number, will create a repository with file modes set to '0xxx'. Users with a safe umask value (0077) can use this option to force file modes. For example, '0640' is a group-readable but not group-writable regardless of user's umask value. Values compatible with old Git versions are written as they were before, for compatibility reasons. That is, "1" for "group" and "2" for "everybody". "git config core.sharedRepository 0xxx" is also handled.

2008-04-15Clarify documentation of git-cvsserver, particularly in relation to git-shellLibravatar Scott Collins1-11/+17
For SSH clients restricted to git-shell, CVS_SERVER does not have to be specified, because git-shell understands the default value of 'cvs' to mean git-cvsserver'. This makes it totally transparent to CVS users, but the instruction to set up CVS access for people with real shell access does not apply. Previous wording mentioning GIT_AUTHOR, GIT_COMMITTER variables was unclear that we really meant GIT_AUTHOR_(NAME|EMAIL), etc. Note that the .ssh/environment file is a good place to set these, and that the .bashrc is shell-specific. Add a bit of text to differentiate cvs -d (setting CVSROOT) from cvs co -d (setting the name of the newly checked out directory). Removed an extra 'Example:' string.

This commit teaches 'git commit/status' show a new 'Modified submodules' section, which is an output from: git submodule summary --cached --for-status --summary-limit <limit> just before the 'Untracked files' section. The <limit> is given by the config variable status.submodulesummary to limit the submodule summary size. status.submodulesummary is a bool/int variable with value: - false or 0 by default to disable the summary, or - positive number to limit the summary size, or - true or negative number to unlimit the summary size. Also mention status.submodulesummary in the documentation. Signed-off-by: Ping Yin <pkufranky@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
