2008-02-05Documentation/SubmittingPatches: What's Acked-by and Tested-by?Junio C Hamano
We used to talk about "internal company procedures", but this document is about submitting patches to the git mailing list. More useful information is when to say Acked-by: and Tested-by:. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2008-02-05Documentation/SubmittingPatches: discuss first then submitJunio C Hamano
This is something I've had in mind for some time. I get enough e-mails as-is, and I suspect the workflow to get list members involved would work better if we get the discussion concluded on the list first before patches hit my tree (even 'next'). Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2007-06-07War on whitespaceJunio C Hamano
This uses "git-apply --whitespace=strip" to fix whitespace errors that have crept in to our source files over time. There are a few files that need to have trailing whitespaces (most notably, test vectors). The results still passes the test, and build result in Documentation/ area is unchanged.

2007-03-05Begin SubmittingPatches with a check listJohannes Schindelin
