2015-03-26git-push.txt: clean up force-with-lease wordingLibravatar Phil Hord1-8/+6
The help text for the --force-with-lease option to git-push does not parse cleanly. Clean up the wording and syntax to be more sensible. Also remove redundant information in the "--force-with-lease alone" description. Signed-off-by: Phil Hord <hordp@cisco.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2014-12-17read-cache: optionally disallow NTFS .git variantsLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-0/+6
The point of disallowing ".git" in the index is that we would never want to accidentally overwrite files in the repository directory. But this means we need to respect the filesystem's idea of when two paths are equal. The prior commit added a helper to make such a comparison for NTFS and FAT32; let's use it in verify_path(). We make this check optional for two reasons: 1. It restricts the set of allowable filenames, which is unnecessary for people who are not on NTFS nor FAT32. In practice this probably doesn't matter, though, as the restricted names are rather obscure and almost certainly would never come up in practice. 2. It has a minor performance penalty for every path we insert into the index. This patch ties the check to the core.protectNTFS config option. Though this is expected to be most useful on Windows, we allow it to be set everywhere, as NTFS may be mounted on other platforms. The variable does default to on for Windows, though.

The caret (^) is used as a markup symbol in AsciiDoc. Due to the inability of AsciiDoc to parse a line containing an unmatched caret, it omitted the line from the output, resulting in the man page missing the end of a sentence. Escape this caret so that the man page ends up with the complete text. Signed-off-by: brian m. carlson <sandals@crustytoothpaste.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

"git status" (and "git commit") behaved as if changes in a modified submodule are not there if submodule.*.ignore configuration is set, which was misleading. The configuration is only to unclutter diff output during the course of development, and should not to hide changes in the "status" output to cause the users forget to commit them. * jl/status-added-submodule-is-never-ignored: commit -m: commit staged submodules regardless of ignore config status/commit: show staged submodules regardless of ignore config

The git-shell(1) manpage says EXAMPLE To disable interactive logins, displaying a greeting instead: + $ chsh -s /usr/bin/git-shell $ mkdir $HOME/git-shell-commands [...] The stray "+" has been there ever since the example was added in v1.8.3-rc0~210^2 (shell: new no-interactive-login command to print a custom message, 2013-03-09). The "+" sign between paragraphs is needed in asciidoc to attach extra paragraphs to a list item but here it is not needed and ends up rendered as a literal "+". Remove it. A quick search with "grep -e '<p>+' /usr/share/doc/git/html/*.html" doesn't find any other instances of this problem.
