By contrast, the GNU General Public +License is intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change free +software--to make sure the software is free for all its users. This +General Public License applies to most of the Free Software +Foundation's software and to any other program whose authors commit to +using it. (Some other Free Software Foundation software is covered by +the GNU Lesser General Public License instead.) You can apply it to +your programs, too. + + When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not +price. Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you +have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for +this service if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it +if you want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it +in new free programs; and that you know you can do these things. + + To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid +anyone to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender the rights. +These restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for you if you +distribute copies of the software, or if you modify it. + + For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether +gratis or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that +you have. You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the +source code. And you must show them these terms so they know their +rights. + + We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the software, and +(2) offer you this license which gives you legal permission to copy, +distribute and/or modify the software. + + Also, for each author's protection and ours, we want to make certain +that everyone understands that there is no warranty for this free +software. If the software is modified by someone else and passed on, we +want its recipients to know that what they have is not the original, so +that any problems introduced by others will not reflect on the original +authors' reputations. + + Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software +patents. We wish to avoid the danger that redistributors of a free +program will individually obtain patent licenses, in effect making the +program proprietary. To prevent this, we have made it clear that any +patent must be licensed for everyone's free use or not licensed at all. + + The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and +modification follow. + + GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE + TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION + + 0. This License applies to any program or other work which contains +a notice placed by the copyright holder saying it may be distributed +under the terms of this General Public License. The "Program", below, +refers to any such program or work, and a "work based on the Program" +means either the Program or any derivative work under copyright law: +that is to say, a work containing the Program or a portion of it, +either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated into another +language. (Hereinafter, translation is included without limitation in +the term "modification".) Each licensee is addressed as "you". + +Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not +covered by this License; they are outside its scope. The act of +running the Program is not restricted, and the output from the Program +is covered only if its contents constitute a work based on the +Program (independent of having been made by running the Program). +Whether that is true depends on what the Program does. + + 1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program's +source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you +conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate +copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the +notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any warranty; +and give any other recipients of the Program a copy of this License +along with the Program. + +You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and +you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a fee. + + 2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any portion +of it, thus forming a work based on the Program, and copy and +distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1 +above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions: + + a) You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices + stating that you changed the files and the date of any change. + + b) You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in + whole or in part contains or is derived from the Program or any + part thereof, to be licensed as a whole at no charge to all third + parties under the terms of this License. + + c) If the modified program normally reads commands interactively + when run, you must cause it, when started running for such + interactive use in the most ordinary way, to print or display an + announcement including an appropriate copyright notice and a + notice that there is no warranty (or else, saying that you provide + a warranty) and that users may redistribute the program under + these conditions, and telling the user how to view a copy of this + License. (Exception: if the Program itself is interactive but + does not normally print such an announcement, your work based on + the Program is not required to print an announcement.) + +These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If +identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Program, +and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in +themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those +sections when you distribute them as separate works. But when you +distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based +on the Program, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of +this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the +entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote it. + +Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest +your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to +exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or +collective works based on the Program. + +In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Program +with the Program (or with a work based on the Program) on a volume of +a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under +the scope of this License. + + 3. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it, +under Section 2) in object code or executable form under the terms of +Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you also do one of the following: + + a) Accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable + source code, which must be distributed under the terms of Sections + 1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange; or, + + b) Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three + years, to give any third party, for a charge no more than your + cost of physically performing source distribution, a complete + machine-readable copy of the corresponding source code, to be + distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium + customarily used for software interchange; or, + + c) Accompany it with the information you received as to the offer + to distribute corresponding source code. (This alternative is + allowed only for noncommercial distribution and only if you + received the program in object code or executable form with such + an offer, in accord with Subsection b above.) + +The source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for +making modifications to it. For an executable work, complete source +code means all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any +associated interface definition files, plus the scripts used to +control compilation and installation of the executable. However, as a +special exception, the source code distributed need not include +anything that is normally distributed (in either source or binary +form) with the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the +operating system on which the executable runs, unless that component +itself accompanies the executable. + +If distribution of executable or object code is made by offering +access to copy from a designated place, then offering equivalent +access to copy the source code from the same place counts as +distribution of the source code, even though third parties are not +compelled to copy the source along with the object code. + + 4. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Program +except as expressly provided under this License. Any attempt +otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Program is +void, and will automatically terminate your rights under this License. +However, parties who have received copies, or rights, from you under +this License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such +parties remain in full compliance. + + 5. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not +signed it. However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or +distribute the Program or its derivative works. These actions are +prohibited by law if you do not accept this License. Therefore, by +modifying or distributing the Program (or any work based on the +Program), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and +all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying +the Program or works based on it. + + 6. Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the +Program), the recipient automatically receives a license from the +original licensor to copy, distribute or modify the Program subject to +these terms and conditions. You may not impose any further +restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein. +You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties to +this License. + + 7. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent +infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues), +conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or +otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not +excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot +distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this +License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you +may not distribute the Program at all. For example, if a patent +license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Program by +all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then +the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to +refrain entirely from distribution of the Program. + +If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under +any particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to +apply and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other +circumstances. + +It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any +patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any +such claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the +integrity of the free software distribution system, which is +implemented by public license practices. Many people have made +generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed +through that system in reliance on consistent application of that +system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing +to distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot +impose that choice. + +This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to +be a consequence of the rest of this License. + + 8. If the distribution and/or use of the Program is restricted in +certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the +original copyright holder who places the Program under this License +may add an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding +those countries, so that distribution is permitted only in or among +countries not thus excluded. In such case, this License incorporates +the limitation as if written in the body of this License. + + 9. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions +of the General Public License from time to time. Such new versions will +be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to +address new problems or concerns. + +Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Program +specifies a version number of this License which applies to it and "any +later version", you have the option of following the terms and conditions +either of that version or of any later version published by the Free +Software Foundation. If the Program does not specify a version number of +this License, you may choose any version ever published by the Free Software +Foundation. + + 10. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into other free +programs whose distribution conditions are different, write to the author +to ask for permission. For software which is copyrighted by the Free +Software Foundation, write to the Free Software Foundation; we sometimes +make exceptions for this. Our decision will be guided by the two goals +of preserving the free status of all derivatives of our free software and +of promoting the sharing and reuse of software generally. + + NO WARRANTY + + 11. BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO WARRANTY +FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW. EXCEPT WHEN +OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES +PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED +OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF +MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS +TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE +PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, +REPAIR OR CORRECTION. + + 12. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING +WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY AND/OR +REDISTRIBUTE THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES, +INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING +OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED +TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY +YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER +PROGRAMS), EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE +POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. + + END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS + + How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs + + If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest +possible use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it +free software which everyone can redistribute and change under these terms. + + To do so, attach the following notices to the program. It is safest +to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively +convey the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least +the "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found. + + <one line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what it does.> + Copyright (C) <year> <name of author> + + This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify + it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by + the Free Software Foundation; either version 2 of the License, or + (at your option) any later version. + + This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, + but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of + MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. See the + GNU General Public License for more details. + + You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License along + with this program; if not, write to the Free Software Foundation, Inc., + 51 Franklin Street, Fifth Floor, Boston, MA 02110-1301 USA. + +Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail. + +If the program is interactive, make it output a short notice like this +when it starts in an interactive mode: + + Gnomovision version 69, Copyright (C) year name of author + Gnomovision comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details type `show w'. + This is free software, and you are welcome to redistribute it + under certain conditions; type `show c' for details. + +The hypothetical commands `show w' and `show c' should show the appropriate +parts of the General Public License. Of course, the commands you use may +be called something other than `show w' and `show c'; they could even be +mouse-clicks or menu items--whatever suits your program. + +You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or your +school, if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the program, if +necessary.

For git in general, three rough rules are: + + - Most importantly, we never say "It's in POSIX; we'll happily + ignore your needs should your system not conform to it." + We live in the real world. + + - However, we often say "Let's stay away from that construct, + it's not even in POSIX". + + - In spite of the above two rules, we sometimes say "Although + this is not in POSIX, it (is so convenient | makes the code + much more readable | has other good characteristics) and + practically all the platforms we care about support it, so + let's use it". + + Again, we live in the real world, and it is sometimes a + judgement call, the decision based more on real world + constraints people face than what the paper standard says. + + +As for more concrete guidelines, just imitate the existing code +(this is a good guideline, no matter which project you are +contributing to). It is always preferable to match the _local_ +convention. New code added to git suite is expected to match +the overall style of existing code. Modifications to existing +code is expected to match the style the surrounding code already +uses (even if it doesn't match the overall style of existing code). + +But if you must have a list of rules, here they are. + +For shell scripts specifically (not exhaustive): + + - We prefer $( ... ) for command substitution; unlike ``, it + properly nests. It should have been the way Bourne spelled + it from day one, but unfortunately isn't. + + - We use ${parameter-word} and its [-=?+] siblings, and their + colon'ed "unset or null" form. + + - We use ${parameter#word} and its [#%] siblings, and their + doubled "longest matching" form. + + - We use Arithmetic Expansion $(( ... )). + + - No "Substring Expansion" ${parameter:offset:length}. + + - No shell arrays. + + - No strlen ${#parameter}. + + - No regexp ${parameter/pattern/string}. + + - We do not use Process Substitution <(list) or >(list). + + - We prefer "test" over "[ ... ]". + + - We do not write the noiseword "function" in front of shell + functions. + + - As to use of grep, stick to a subset of BRE (namely, no \{m,n\}, + [::], [==], nor [..]) for portability. + + - We do not use \{m,n\}; + + - We do not use -E; + + - We do not use ? nor + (which are \{0,1\} and \{1,\} + respectively in BRE) but that goes without saying as these + are ERE elements not BRE (note that \? and \+ are not even part + of BRE -- making them accessible from BRE is a GNU extension). + +For C programs: + + - We use tabs to indent, and interpret tabs as taking up to + 8 spaces. + + - We try to keep to at most 80 characters per line. + + - When declaring pointers, the star sides with the variable + name, i.e. "char *string", not "char* string" or + "char * string". This makes it easier to understand code + like "char *string, c;". + + - We avoid using braces unnecessarily. I.e. + + if (bla) { + x = 1; + } + + is frowned upon. A gray area is when the statement extends + over a few lines, and/or you have a lengthy comment atop of + it. Also, like in the Linux kernel, if there is a long list + of "else if" statements, it can make sense to add braces to + single line blocks. + + - We try to avoid assignments inside if(). + + - Try to make your code understandable. You may put comments + in, but comments invariably tend to stale out when the code + they were describing changes. Often splitting a function + into two makes the intention of the code much clearer. + + - Double negation is often harder to understand than no negation + at all. + + - Some clever tricks, like using the !! operator with arithmetic + constructs, can be extremely confusing to others. Avoid them, + unless there is a compelling reason to use them. + + - Use the API. No, really. We have a strbuf (variable length + string), several arrays with the ALLOC_GROW() macro, a + string_list for sorted string lists, a hash map (mapping struct + objects) named "struct decorate", amongst other things. + + - When you come up with an API, document it. + + - The first #include in C files, except in platform specific + compat/ implementations, should be git-compat-util.h or another + header file that includes it, such as cache.h or builtin.h. + + - If you are planning a new command, consider writing it in shell + or perl first, so that changes in semantics can be easily + changed and discussed. Many git commands started out like + that, and a few are still scripts. + + - Avoid introducing a new dependency into git. This means you + usually should stay away from scripting languages not already + used in the git core command set (unless your command is clearly + separate from it, such as an importer to convert random-scm-X + repositories to git). + + - When we pass <string, length> pair to functions, we should try to + pass them in that order. diff --git a/Documentation/Makefile b/Documentation/Makefile new file mode 100644 index 0000000..e117bc4 --- /dev/null +++ b/Documentation/Makefile @@ -0,0 +1,344 @@ +MAN1_TXT= \ + $(filter-out $(addsuffix .txt, $(ARTICLES) $(SP_ARTICLES)), \ + $(wildcard git-*.txt)) \ + gitk.txt git.txt +MAN5_TXT=gitattributes.txt gitignore.txt gitmodules.txt githooks.txt \ + gitrepository-layout.txt +MAN7_TXT=gitcli.txt gittutorial.txt gittutorial-2.txt \ + gitcvs-migration.txt gitcore-tutorial.txt gitglossary.txt \ + gitdiffcore.txt gitrevisions.txt gitworkflows.txt + +MAN_TXT = $(MAN1_TXT) $(MAN5_TXT) $(MAN7_TXT) +MAN_XML=$(patsubst %.txt,%.xml,$(MAN_TXT)) +MAN_HTML=$(patsubst %.txt,%.html,$(MAN_TXT)) + +DOC_HTML=$(MAN_HTML) + +ARTICLES = howto-index +ARTICLES += everyday +ARTICLES += git-tools +ARTICLES += git-bisect-lk2009 +# with their own formatting rules. +SP_ARTICLES = howto/revert-branch-rebase howto/using-merge-subtree user-manual +API_DOCS = $(patsubst %.txt,%,$(filter-out technical/api-index-skel.txt technical/api-index.txt, $(wildcard technical/api-*.txt))) +SP_ARTICLES += $(API_DOCS) +SP_ARTICLES += technical/api-index + +DOC_HTML += $(patsubst %,%.html,$(ARTICLES) $(SP_ARTICLES)) + +DOC_MAN1=$(patsubst %.txt,%.1,$(MAN1_TXT)) +DOC_MAN5=$(patsubst %.txt,%.5,$(MAN5_TXT)) +DOC_MAN7=$(patsubst %.txt,%.7,$(MAN7_TXT)) + +prefix?=$(HOME) +bindir?=$(prefix)/bin +htmldir?=$(prefix)/share/doc/git-doc +pdfdir?=$(prefix)/share/doc/git-doc +mandir?=$(prefix)/share/man +man1dir=$(mandir)/man1 +man5dir=$(mandir)/man5 +man7dir=$(mandir)/man7 +# DESTDIR= + +ASCIIDOC=asciidoc +ASCIIDOC_EXTRA = +MANPAGE_XSL = manpage-normal.xsl +XMLTO_EXTRA = +INSTALL?=install +RM ?= rm -f +DOC_REF = origin/man +HTML_REF = origin/html + +infodir?=$(prefix)/share/info +MAKEINFO=makeinfo +INSTALL_INFO=install-info +DOCBOOK2X_TEXI=docbook2x-texi +DBLATEX=dblatex +ifndef PERL_PATH + PERL_PATH = /usr/bin/perl +endif + +-include ../config.mak.autogen +-include ../config.mak + +# +# For asciidoc ... +# -7.1.2, no extra settings are needed. +# 8.0-, set ASCIIDOC8. +# + +# +# For docbook-xsl ... +# -1.68.1, set ASCIIDOC_NO_ROFF?

Although all of the changes in this section +happened before the current v1.4.4 release, they are summarized +here in the v1.5.0 release notes for people who skipped earlier +versions. + +As of git v1.5.0 there are some optional features that changes +the repository to allow data to be stored and transferred more +efficiently. These features are not enabled by default, as they +will make the repository unusable with older versions of git. +Specifically, the available options are: + + - There is a configuration variable core.legacyheaders that + changes the format of loose objects so that they are more + efficient to pack and to send out of the repository over git + native protocol, since v1.4.2. However, loose objects + written in the new format cannot be read by git older than + that version; people fetching from your repository using + older clients over dumb transports (e.g. http) using older + versions of git will also be affected. + + To let git use the new loose object format, you have to + set core.legacyheaders to false. + + - Since v1.4.3, configuration repack.usedeltabaseoffset allows + packfile to be created in more space efficient format, which + cannot be read by git older than that version. + + To let git use the new format for packfiles, you have to + set repack.usedeltabaseoffset to true. + +The above two new features are not enabled by default and you +have to explicitly ask for them, because they make repositories +unreadable by older versions of git, and in v1.5.0 we still do +not enable them by default for the same reason. We will change +this default probably 1 year after 1.4.2's release, when it is +reasonable to expect everybody to have new enough version of +git. + + - 'git pack-refs' appeared in v1.4.4; this command allows tags + to be accessed much more efficiently than the traditional + 'one-file-per-tag' format. Older git-native clients can + still fetch from a repository that packed and pruned refs + (the server side needs to run the up-to-date version of git), + but older dumb transports cannot. Packing of refs is done by + an explicit user action, either by use of "git pack-refs + --prune" command or by use of "git gc" command. + + - 'git -p' to paginate anything -- many commands do pagination + by default on a tty. Introduced between v1.4.1 and v1.4.2; + this may surprise old timers. + + - 'git archive' superseded 'git tar-tree' in v1.4.3; + + - 'git cvsserver' was new invention in v1.3.0; + + - 'git repo-config', 'git grep', 'git rebase' and 'gitk' were + seriously enhanced during v1.4.0 timeperiod. + + - 'gitweb' became part of git.git during v1.4.0 timeperiod and + seriously modified since then. + + - reflog is an v1.4.0 invention. This allows you to name a + revision that a branch used to be at (e.g. "git diff + master@{yesterday} master" allows you to see changes since + yesterday's tip of the branch). + + +Updates in v1.5.0 since v1.4.4 series +------------------------------------- + +* Index manipulation + + - git-add is to add contents to the index (aka "staging area" + for the next commit), whether the file the contents happen to + be is an existing one or a newly created one. + + - git-add without any argument does not add everything + anymore. Use 'git-add .' instead. Also you can add + otherwise ignored files with an -f option. + + - git-add tries to be more friendly to users by offering an + interactive mode ("git-add -i"). + + - git-commit <path> used to refuse to commit if <path> was + different between HEAD and the index (i.e. update-index was + used on it earlier). This check was removed. + + - git-rm is much saner and safer. It is used to remove paths + from both the index file and the working tree, and makes sure + you are not losing any local modification before doing so. + + - git-reset <tree> <paths>... can be used to revert index + entries for selected paths. + + - git-update-index is much less visible. Many suggestions to + use the command in git output and documentation have now been + replaced by simpler commands such as "git add" or "git rm". + + +* Repository layout and objects transfer + + - The data for origin repository is stored in the configuration + file $GIT_DIR/config, not in $GIT_DIR/remotes/, for newly + created clones. The latter is still supported and there is + no need to convert your existing repository if you are + already comfortable with your workflow with the layout. + + - git-clone always uses what is known as "separate remote" + layout for a newly created repository with a working tree. + + A repository with the separate remote layout starts with only + one default branch, 'master', to be used for your own + development. Unlike the traditional layout that copied all + the upstream branches into your branch namespace (while + renaming their 'master' to your 'origin'), the new layout + puts upstream branches into local "remote-tracking branches" + with their own namespace. These can be referenced with names + such as "origin/$upstream_branch_name" and are stored in + .git/refs/remotes rather than .git/refs/heads where normal + branches are stored. + + This layout keeps your own branch namespace less cluttered, + avoids name collision with your upstream, makes it possible + to automatically track new branches created at the remote + after you clone from it, and makes it easier to interact with + more than one remote repository (you can use "git remote" to + add other repositories to track). There might be some + surprises: + + * 'git branch' does not show the remote tracking branches. + It only lists your own branches. Use '-r' option to view + the tracking branches. + + * If you are forking off of a branch obtained from the + upstream, you would have done something like 'git branch + my-next next', because traditional layout dropped the + tracking branch 'next' into your own branch namespace. + With the separate remote layout, you say 'git branch next + origin/next', which allows you to use the matching name + 'next' for your own branch. It also allows you to track a + remote other than 'origin' (i.e. where you initially cloned + from) and fork off of a branch from there the same way + (e.g. "git branch mingw j6t/master"). + + Repositories initialized with the traditional layout continue + to work. |
