2008-06-08Docs: Use "-l::\n--long\n" format in OPTIONS sectionsStephan Beyer
The OPTIONS section of a documentation file contains a list of the options a git command accepts. Currently there are several variants to describe the case that different options (almost) do the same in the OPTIONS section. Some are: -f, --foo:: -f|--foo:: -f | --foo:: But AsciiDoc has the special form: -f:: --foo:: This patch applies this form to the documentation of the whole git suite, and removes useless em-dash prevention, so \--foo becomes --foo.

2008-06-06documentation: move git(7) to git(1)Christian Couder
As the "git" man page describes the "git" command at the end-user level, it seems better to move it to man section 1. Signed-off-by: Christian Couder <chriscool@tuxfamily.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2008-01-07Documentation: rename gitlink macro to linkgitDan McGee
Between AsciiDoc 8.2.2 and 8.2.3, the following change was made to the stock Asciidoc configuration: @@ -149,7 +153,10 @@ # Inline macros. # Backslash prefix required for escape processing. # (?s) re flag for line spanning. -(?su)[\\]?(?P<name>\w(\w|-)*?):(?P<target>\S*?)(\[(?P<attrlist>.*?)\])= + +# Explicit so they can be nested. +(?su)[\\]?(?P<name>(http|https|ftp|file|mailto|callto|image|link)):(?P<target>\S*?)(\[(?P<attrlist>.*?)\])= + # Anchor: [[[id]]]. Bibliographic anchor. (?su)[\\]?\[\[\[(?P<attrlist>[\w][\w-]*?)\]\]\]=anchor3 # Anchor: [[id,xreflabel]] This default regex now matches explicit values, and unfortunately in this case gitlink was being matched by just 'link', causing the wrong inline macro template to be applied. By renaming the macro, we can avoid being matched by the wrong regex. Signed-off-by: Dan McGee <dpmcgee@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2007-11-25core.whitespace: documentation updates.Junio C Hamano
This adds description of core.whitespace to the manual page of git-config, and updates the stale description of whitespace handling in the manual page of git-apply. Also demote "strip" to a synonym status for "fix" as the value of --whitespace option given to git-apply. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2007-09-19apply: get rid of --index-info in favor of --build-fake-ancestorJohannes Schindelin
git-am used "git apply -z --index-info" to find the original versions of the files touched by the diff, to be able to do an inexpensive three-way merge. This operation makes only sense in a repository, since the index information in the diff refers to blobs, which have to be present in the current repository. Therefore, teach "git apply" a mode to write out the result as an index file to begin with, obviating the need for scripts to do it themselves. The sole user for --index-info is "git am" is converted to use --build-fake-ancestor in this patch.

2007-08-16git-apply: apply submodule changesSven Verdoolaege
Apply "Subproject commit HEX" changes produced by git-diff. As usual in the current git, only the superproject itself is actually modified (possibly creating empty directories for new submodules). Any checked-out submodule is left untouched and is not required to be up-to-date. With clean-ups from Junio C Hamano.

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.

2006-09-07Make apply --binary a no-op.Junio C Hamano
Historically we did not allow binary patch applied without an explicit permission from the user, and this flag was the way to do so. This makes the flag a no-op by always allowing binary patch application. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2006-08-28Merge branch 'jc/apply'Junio C Hamano
* jc/apply: git-apply --reject: finishing touches. apply --reject: count hunks starting from 1, not 0 git-apply --verbose git-apply --reject: send rejects to .rej files. git-apply --reject apply --reverse: tie it all together. diff.c: make binary patch reversible. builtin-apply --reverse: two bugfixes.
2006-08-27git-apply --reject: finishing touches.Junio C Hamano
After a failed "git am" attempt: git apply --reject --verbose .dotest/patch applies hunks that are applicable and leaves *.rej files the rejected hunks, and it reports what it is doing. With --index, files with a rejected hunk do not get their index entries updated at all, so "git diff" will show the hunks that successfully got applied. Without --verbose to remind the user that the patch updated some other paths cleanly, it is very easy to lose track of the status of the working tree, so --reject implies --verbose.

2006-08-17git-apply --rejectJunio C Hamano
With the new flag "--reject", hunks that do not apply are sent to the standard output, and the usable hunks are applied. The command itself exits with non-zero status when this happens, so that the user or wrapper can take notice and sort the remaining mess out. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

2006-04-11Implement limited context matching in git-apply.Eric W. Biederman
Ok this really should be the good version. The option handling has been reworked to be automation safe. Currently to import the -mm tree I have to work around git-apply by using patch. Because some of Andrews patches in quilt will only apply with fuzz. I started out implementing a --fuzz option and then I realized fuzz is not a very safe concept for an automated system. What you really want is a minimum number of context lines that must match. This allows policy to be set without knowing how many lines of context a patch actually provides. By default the policy remains to match all provided lines of context. Allowng git-apply to match a restricted set of context makes it much easier to import the -mm tree into git. I am still only processing 1.5 to 1.6 patches a second for the 692 patches in 2.6.17-rc1-mm2 is still painful but it does help. If I just loop through all of Andrews patches in order and run git-apply --index -C1 I process the entire patchset in 1m53s or about 6 patches per second. So running git-mailinfo, git-write-tree, git-commit-tree, and git-update-ref everytime has a measurable impact, and shows things can be speeded up even more. All of these timings were taking on my poor 700Mhz Athlon with 512MB of ram. So people with fast machiens should see much better performance. When a match is found after the number of context are reduced a warning is generated. Since this is a rare event and possibly dangerous this seems to make sense. Unless you are patching a single file the error message is a little bit terse at the moment, but it should be easy to go back and fix. I have also updated the documentation for git-apply to reflect the new -C option that sets the minimum number of context lines that must match. Signed-off-by: Eric W.
