2009-05-25fix cat-file usage message and documentationLibravatar Jeff King1-2/+2
cat-file with an object on the command line requires an option to tell it what to output (type, size, pretty-print, etc). However, the square brackets in the usage imply that those options are not required. This patch switches them to parentheses to indicate "required but grouped-OR" (curly braces might also work, but this follows the convention used already by "git stash"). While we're at it, let's change the <sha1> specifier in the usage to <object>. That's what the documentation uses, and it does actually use the regular object lookup.

2009-01-05remove trailing LF in die() messagesLibravatar Alexander Potashev1-1/+1
LF at the end of format strings given to die() is redundant because die already adds one on its own. Signed-off-by: Alexander Potashev <aspotashev@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2008-10-12Replace calls to strbuf_init(&foo, 0) with STRBUF_INIT initializerLibravatar Brandon Casey1-2/+1
Many call sites use strbuf_init(&foo, 0) to initialize local strbuf variable "foo" which has not been accessed since its declaration. These can be replaced with a static initialization using the STRBUF_INIT macro which is just as readable, saves a function call, and takes up fewer lines.

2008-08-30Start conforming code to "git subcmd" styleLibravatar Heikki Orsila1-2/+2
User notifications are presented as 'git cmd', and code comments are presented as '"cmd"' or 'git's cmd', rather than 'git-cmd'. Signed-off-by: Heikki Orsila <heikki.orsila@iki.fi> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2008-07-13Make usage strings dash-lessLibravatar Stephan Beyer1-2/+2
When you misuse a git command, you are shown the usage string. But this is currently shown in the dashed form. So if you just copy what you see, it will not work, when the dashed form is no longer supported. This patch makes git commands show the dash-less version. For shell scripts that do not specify OPTIONS_SPEC, git-sh-setup.sh generates a dash-less usage string now.

2008-06-28git cat-file: Fix memory leak in batch modeLibravatar Björn Steinbrink1-0/+1
When run in batch mode, git cat-file never frees the memory for the blob contents it is printing. This quickly adds up and causes git-svn to be hardly usable for imports of large svn repos, because it uses cat-file in batch mode and cat-file's memory usage easily reaches several hundred MB without any good reason.

2008-06-09cat-file --batch / --batch-check: do not exit if hashes are missingLibravatar Lea Wiemann1-3/+6
Previously, cat-file --batch / --batch-check would silently exit if it was passed a non-existent SHA1 on stdin. Now it prints "<SHA1> missing" as in all other cases (and as advertised in the documentation). Note that cat-file --batch-check (but not --batch) will still output "error: unable to find <SHA1>" on stderr if a non-existent SHA1 is passed, but this does not affect parsing its stdout. Also, type <= 0 was previously using the potentially uninitialized type variable (relying on it being 0); it is now being initialized.

2008-06-03cat-file --batch: flush stdout also when objects are missingLibravatar Lea Wiemann1-0/+1
cat-file --batch/--batch-check only flushes stdout when the object exists, but not when it doesn't ("<object> missing"). This makes bidirectional pipes hang. Signed-off-by: Lea Wiemann <LeWiemann@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2008-05-14Provide git_config with a callback-data parameterLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-1/+1
git_config() only had a function parameter, but no callback data parameter. This assumes that all callback functions only modify global variables. With this patch, every callback gets a void * parameter, and it is hoped that this will help the libification effort.

2008-05-05git-cat-file: Add --batch optionLibravatar Adam Roben1-18/+45
--batch is similar to --batch-check, except that the contents of each object is also printed. The output's form is: <sha1> SP <type> SP <size> LF <contents> LF Signed-off-by: Adam Roben <aroben@apple.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2008-05-05git-cat-file: Add --batch-check optionLibravatar Adam Roben1-2/+72
This new option allows multiple objects to be specified on stdin. For each object specified, a line of the following form is printed: <sha1> SP <type> SP <size> LF If the object does not exist in the repository, a line of the following form is printed: <object> SP missing LF Signed-off-by: Adam Roben <aroben@apple.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2008-05-05git-cat-file: Small refactor of cmd_cat_fileLibravatar Adam Roben1-16/+22

2007-04-22Cleanup variables in cat-fileLibravatar Shawn O. Pearce1-12/+18
I want to add new command line options to cat-file, but to do that we need to change how we handle argv[] first. This is a simple cleanup that assigns names to the two arguments we currently care about. Signed-off-by: Shawn O. Pearce <spearce@spearce.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2007-02-27convert object type handling from a string to a numberLibravatar Nicolas Pitre1-8/+11
We currently have two parallel notation for dealing with object types in the code: a string and a numerical value. One of them is obviously redundent, and the most used one requires more stack space and a bunch of strcmp() all over the place. This is an initial step for the removal of the version using a char array found in object reading code paths. The patch is unfortunately large but there is no sane way to split it in smaller parts without breaking the system.

2006-08-26Relative timestamps in git logLibravatar Linus Torvalds1-1/+1
I noticed that I was looking at the kernel gitweb output at some point rather than just do "git log", simply because I liked seeing the simplified date-format, ie the "5 days ago" rather than a full date. This adds infrastructure to do that for "git log" too. It does NOT add the actual flag to enable it, though, so right now this patch is a no-op, but it should now be easy to add a command line flag (and possibly a config file option) to just turn on the "relative" date format. The exact cut-off points when it switches from days to weeks etc are totally arbitrary, but are picked somewhat to avoid the "1 weeks ago" thing (by making it show "10 days ago" rather than "1 week", or "70 minutes ago" rather than "1 hour ago"). [jc: with minor fix and tweak around "month" and "week" area.] Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2006-08-21Add write_or_die(), a helper functionLibravatar Rene Scharfe1-23/+6
The little helper write_or_die() won't come back with bad news about full disks or broken pipes. It either succeeds or terminates the program, making additional error handling unnecessary. This patch adds the new function and uses it to replace two similar ones (the one in tar-tree originally has been copied from cat-file btw.). I chose to add the fd parameter which both lacked to make write_or_die() just as flexible as write() and thus suitable for lib-ification. There is a regression: error messages emitted by this function don't show the program name, while the replaced two functions did. That's acceptable, I think; a lot of other functions do the same.
