2007-03-16	git-fetch, git-branch: Support local --track via a special remote '.'	Paolo Bonzini	1	-0/+24
	This patch adds support for a dummy remote '.' to avoid having to declare a fake remote like [remote "local"] url = . fetch = refs/heads/:refs/heads/ Such a builtin remote simplifies the operation of "git-fetch", which will populate FETCH_HEAD but will not pretend that two repositories are in use, will not create a thin pack, and will not perform any useless remapping of names. The speed improvement is around 20%, and it should improve more if "git-fetch" is converted to a builtin. To this end, git-parse-remote is grown with a new kind of remote, 'builtin'. In git-fetch.sh, we treat the builtin remote specially in that it needs no pack/store operations. In fact, doing git-fetch on a builtin remote will simply populate FETCH_HEAD appropriately. The patch also improves of the --track/--no-track support, extending it so that branch.<name>.remote items referring '.' can be created. Finally, it fixes a typo in git-checkout.sh.

2007-01-12	use 'init' instead of 'init-db' for shipped docs and tools	Nicolas Pitre	1	-1/+1
	While 'init-db' still is and probably will always remain a valid git command for obvious backward compatibility reasons, it would be a good idea to move shipped tools and docs to using 'init' instead. Signed-off-by: Nicolas Pitre <nico@cam.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2006-11-16	git-pull: allow pulling into an empty repository	Linus Torvalds	1	-0/+33
	We used to complain that we cannot merge anything we fetched with a local branch that does not exist yet. Just treat the case as a natural extension of fast forwarding and make the local branch'es tip point at the same commit we just fetched. After all an empty repository without an initial commit is an ancestor of any commit. [jc: I added a trivial test. We've become sloppy but we should stick to the discipline of covering new behaviour with new tests. ] Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
