2009-08-05git-merge-base/git-show-branch --merge-base: Documentation and testMichael J Gruber
Currently, the documentation suggests that 'git merge-base -a' and 'git show-branch --merge-base' are equivalent (in fact it claims that the former cannot handle more than two revs). Alas, the handling of more than two revs is very different. Document this by tests and correct the documentation to reflect this.

2009-07-31Documentation: git-send-email: correct statement about standard portsWesley J. Landaker
The current documentation states that servers typically listen on port 465 and calls this "ssmtp". While it's true that many mail servers use port 465 for SSL smtp, this is non-standard, and hails from the days before smtp and submission TLS support, that arrived in RFC2487 and RFC3207. Port 465 is actually assigned by IANA for unrelated purposes, and is mostly still used by mail servers today only to support Outlook Express. In any case, this patch helps the documentation better reflect both standards and reality, while still helpfully mentioning ports numbers that a user may wish to specify. Signed-off-by: Wesley J. Landaker <wjl@icecavern.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2009-07-31Documentation: git-send-email: fix submission port numberWesley J. Landaker
The current documentation confuses non-standard SSL smtp port 465 with submission port 587 (RFC 4406). This patch just changes the referenced number. Signed-off-by: Wesley J. Landaker <wjl@icecavern.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2009-07-31git fast-export: add --no-data optionGeoffrey Irving
When using git fast-export and git fast-import to rewrite the history of a repository with large binary files, almost all of the time is spent dealing with blobs. This is extremely inefficient if all we want to do is rewrite the commits and tree structure. --no-data skips the output of blobs and writes SHA-1s instead of marks, which provides a massive speedup.

2009-07-25Disable asciidoc 8.4.1+ semantics for `{plus}` and friendsThomas Rast
asciidoc 8.4.1 changed the semantics of inline backtick quoting so that they disable parsing of inline constructs, i.e., Input: `{plus}` Pre 8.4.1: + Post 8.4.1: {plus} Fix this by defining the asciidoc attribute 'no-inline-literal' (which, per the 8.4.1 changelog, is the toggle to return to the old behaviour) when under ASCIIDOC8.

2009-07-25git svn: revert default behavior for --minimize-urlEric Wong
This reverts the --minimize-url behavior change that appeared recently in commit 0b2af457a49e3b00d47d556d5301934d27909db8 ("Fix branch detection when repository root is inaccessible"). However, we now allow the option to be turned off by allowing "--no-minimize-url" so people with limited-access setups can still take advantage of the fix in 0b2af457a49e3b00d47d556d5301934d27909db8. Also document the behavior and default settings of minimize-url in the manpage for the first time. This introduces a temporary UI regression to allow t9141 to pass that will be reverted (fixed) in the next commit. Signed-off-by: Eric Wong <normalperson@yhbt.net>

2009-07-24git repack: keep commits hidden by a graftJohannes Schindelin
When you have grafts that pretend that a given commit has different parents than the ones recorded in the commit object, it is dangerous to let 'git repack' remove those hidden parents, as you can easily remove the graft and end up with a broken repository. So let's play it safe and keep those parent objects and everything that is reachable by them, in addition to the grafted parents. As this behavior can only be triggered by git pack-objects, and as that command handles duplicate parents gracefully, we do not bother to cull duplicated parents that may result by using both true and grafted parents.

2009-07-02grep: add option -p/--show-functionRené Scharfe
The new option -p instructs git grep to print the previous function definition as a context line, similar to diff -p. Such context lines are marked with an equal sign instead of a dash. This option complements the existing context options -A, -B, -C. Function definitions are detected using the same heuristic that diff uses. User defined regular expressions are not supported, yet.
