2011-11-22revert: rename --reset option to --quitJonathan Nieder
The option to "git cherry-pick" and "git revert" to discard the sequencer state introduced by v1.7.8-rc0~141^2~6 (revert: Introduce --reset to remove sequencer state, 2011-08-04) has a confusing name. Change it now, while we still have the time. The new name for "cherry-pick, please get out of my way, since I've long forgotten about the sequence of commits I was cherry-picking when you wrote that old .git/sequencer directory" is --quit. Mnemonic: this is analagous to quiting a program the user is no longer using --- we just want to get out of the multiple-command cherry-pick procedure and not to reset HEAD or rewind any other old state. The "--reset" option is kept as a synonym to minimize the impact. We might consider dropping it for simplicity in a separate patch, though. Adjust documentation and tests to use the newly preferred name (--quit) instead of --reset. While at it, let's clarify the short descriptions of these operations in "-h" output. Before: --reset forget the current operation --continue continue the current operation After: --quit end revert or cherry-pick sequence --continue resume revert or cherry-pick sequence Noticed-by: Phil Hord <phil.hord@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Jonathan Nieder <jrnieder@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2011-10-24RelNotes/1.7.7.1: setgid bit patch is about fixing "git init" via Makefile ↵Jonathan Nieder
setting The change was actually about "git init -s" which sets the setgid bit on SysV-style systems to allow shared access to a repository, and can provoke errors on BSD-style systems, depending on how permissive the filesystem in use wants to be. More to the point, the patch was just taking a fix that arrived for FreeBSD in v1.5.5 days and making it also apply to machines using an (obscure) GNU userland/FreeBSD kernel mixture.

2011-10-17"rebase -i": support special-purpose editor to edit insn sheetPeter Oberndorfer
The insn sheet used by "rebase -i" is designed to be easily editable by any text editor, but an editor that is specifically meant for it (but is otherwise unsuitable for editing regular text files) could be useful by allowing drag & drop reordering in a GUI environment, for example. The GIT_SEQUENCE_EDITOR environment variable and/or the sequence.editor configuration variable can be used to specify such an editor, while allowing the usual editor to be used to edit commit log messages. As usual, the environment variable takes precedence over the configuration variable. It is envisioned that other "sequencer" based tools will use the same mechanism.
