2011-01-31t5526: Fix wrong argument order in "git config"Libravatar Jens Lehmann1-1/+1
This fixes a typo where the "git config" arguments "-f" and "--unset" were swapped leading to the creation of a "--unset" file. Signed-off-by: Jens Lehmann <Jens.Lehmann@web.de> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2010-11-12Submodules: Add the "fetchRecurseSubmodules" config optionLibravatar Jens Lehmann1-0/+50
The new boolean "fetchRecurseSubmodules" config option controls the behavior for "git fetch" and "git pull". It specifies if these commands should recurse into submodules and fetch new commits there too and can be set separately for each submodule. In the .gitmodules file "submodule.<name>.fetchRecurseSubmodules" entries are read before looking for them in .git/config. Thus settings found in .git/config will override those from .gitmodules, thereby allowing the user to ignore settings given by the remote side while also letting upstream set reasonable defaults for those users who don't have special needs. This configuration can be overridden by the command line option "--[no-]recurse-submodules" of "git fetch" and "git pull".

2010-11-12Add the 'fetch.recurseSubmodules' config settingLibravatar Jens Lehmann1-0/+36
This new boolean option can be used to override the default for "git fetch" and "git pull", which is to not recurse into populated submodules and fetch all new commits there too. Signed-off-by: Jens Lehmann <Jens.Lehmann@web.de> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2010-11-12fetch/pull: Add the --recurse-submodules optionLibravatar Jens Lehmann1-0/+109
Until now you had to call "git submodule update" (without -N|--no-fetch option) or something like "git submodule foreach git fetch" to fetch new commits in populated submodules from their remote. This could lead to "(commits not present)" messages in the output of "git diff --submodule" (which is used by "git gui" and "gitk") after fetching or pulling new commits in the superproject and is an obstacle for implementing recursive checkout of submodules. Also "git submodule update" cannot fetch changes when disconnected, so it was very easy to forget to fetch the submodule changes before disconnecting only to discover later that they are needed. This patch adds the "--recurse-submodules" option to recursively fetch each populated submodule from the url configured in the .git/config of the submodule at the end of each "git fetch" or during "git pull" in the superproject. The submodule paths are taken from the index. The hidden option "--submodule-prefix" is added to "git fetch" to be able to print out the full paths of nested submodules.
