This change makes it clearer that the change to the history effected by
executing 'git rebase master' while on 'topic' branch, and by executing
'git rebase master topic' on any branch, will be the same; the implicit
checkout of the second form will remain after the rebase exits.

There is a nice shortlog-ish output of the authors there. We
also point people directly to shortlog, but of course they
might be reading the documentation online or from a binary
package of git.
|
|
Almost every page has a footer that links back to the main
git(1) page. Let's add it on the few that are missing it.
|
|
The point of these sections is generally to:
1. Give credit where it is due.
2. Give the reader an idea of where to ask questions or
file bug reports.
But they don't do a good job of either case. For (1), they
are out of date and incomplete. A much more accurate answer
can be gotten through shortlog or blame. For (2), the
correct contact point is generally git@vger, and even if you
wanted to cc the contact point, the out-of-date and
incomplete fields mean you're likely sending to somebody
useless.
So let's drop the fields entirely from all manpages except
git(1) itself. We already point people to the mailing list
for bug reports there, and we can update the Authors section
to give credit to the major contributors and point to
shortlog and blame for more information.
Each page has a "This is part of git" footer, so people can
follow that to the main git manpage.

Revert "core.abbrevguard: Ensure short object names stay unique a bit longer"
|
|
This reverts commit 72a5b561fc1c4286bc7c5b0693afc076af261e1f, as adding
fixed number of hexdigits more than necessary to make one object name
locally unique does not help in futureproofing the uniqueness of names
we generate today.

SubmittingPatches: clarify the expected commit log description
diff format documentation: clarify --cc and -c
rev-list-options.txt: typo fix
|
|
Earlier, 47afed5 (SubmittingPatches: itemize and reflect upon well written
changes, 2009-04-28) added a discussion on the contents of the commit log
message, but the last part of the new paragraph didn't make much sense.
Reword it slightly to make it more readable.
Update the "quicklist" to clarify what we mean by "motivation" and
"contrast". Also mildly discourage external references.

The description was unclear if -c or --cc was the default (--cc is for
some commands), and incorrectly implied that the default applies to
all the diff generating commands.
Most importantly, "log" does not default to "--cc" (it defaults to
"--no-merges") and "log -p" obeys the user's wish to see non-combined
format. Only "diff" (during merge and three-blob comparison) and
"show" use --cc as the default.

Lazy fast-import frontend authors that want to rely on the backend to
keep track of the content of the imported trees _almost_ have what
they need in the 'cat-blob' command (v1.7.4-rc0~30^2~3, 2010-11-28).
But it is not quite enough, since
(1) cat-blob can be used to retrieve the content of files, but
not their mode, and
(2) using cat-blob requires the frontend to keep track of a name
(mark number or object id) for each blob to be retrieved
Introduce an 'ls' command to complement cat-blob and take care of the
remaining needs. The 'ls' command finds what is at a given path
within a given tree-ish (tag, commit, or tree):
'ls' SP <dataref> SP <path> LF
or in fast-import's active commit:
'ls' SP <path> LF
The response is a single line sent through the cat-blob channel,
imitating ls-tree output. So for example:
FE> ls :1 Documentation
gfi> 040000 tree 9e6c2b599341d28a2a375f8207507e0a2a627fe9 Documentation
FE> ls 9e6c2b599341d28a2a375f8207507e0a2a627fe9 git-fast-import.txt
gfi> 100644 blob 4f92954396e3f0f97e75b6838a5635b583708870 git-fast-import.txt
FE> ls :1 RelNotes
gfi> 120000 blob b942e499449d97aeb50c73ca2bdc1c6e6d528743 RelNotes
FE> cat-blob b942e499449d97aeb50c73ca2bdc1c6e6d528743
gfi> b942e499449d97aeb50c73ca2bdc1c6e6d528743 blob 32
gfi> Documentation/RelNotes/1.7.4.txt
The most interesting parts of the reply are the first word, which is
a 6-digit octal mode (regular file, executable, symlink, directory,
or submodule), and the part from the second space to the tab, which is
a <dataref> that can be used in later cat-blob, ls, and filemodify (M)
commands to refer to the content (blob, tree, or commit) at that path.
If there is nothing there, the response is "missing some/path".
The intent is for this command to be used to read files from the
active commit, so a frontend can apply patches to them, and to copy
files and directories from previous revisions.
For example, proposed updates to svn-fe use this command in place of
its internal representation of the repository directory structure.
This simplifies the frontend a great deal and means support for
resuming an import in a separate fast-import run (i.e., incremental
import) is basically free.

Previously the user was advised to use commit -c CHERRY_PICK_HEAD after
a conflicting cherry-pick. While this would preserve the original
commit's authorship, it would sadly discard cherry-pick's carefully
crafted MERGE_MSG (which contains the list of conflicts as well as the
original commit-id in the case of cherry-pick -x).
On the other hand, if a bare 'commit' were performed, it would preserve
the MERGE_MSG while resetting the authorship.
In other words, there was no way to simultaneously take the authorship
from CHERRY_PICK_HEAD and the commit message from MERGE_MSG.
This change fixes that situation. A bare 'commit' will now take the
authorship from CHERRY_PICK_HEAD and the commit message from MERGE_MSG.
If the user wishes to reset authorship, that must now be done explicitly
via --reset-author.
A side-benefit of passing commit authorship along this way is that we
can eliminate redundant authorship parsing code from revert.c.
(Also removed an unused include from revert.c)

When a cherry-pick conflicts git advises:
$ git commit -c <original commit id>
to preserve the original commit message and authorship. Instead, let's
record the original commit id in CHERRY_PICK_HEAD and advise:
$ git commit -c CHERRY_PICK_HEAD
A later patch teaches git to handle the '-c CHERRY_PICK_HEAD' part.
Note that we record CHERRY_PICK_HEAD even in the case where there
are no conflicts so that we may use it to communicate authorship to
commit; this will then allow us to remove set_author_ident_env from
revert.c. However, we do not record CHERRY_PICK_HEAD when --no-commit
is used, as presumably the user intends to further edit the commit
and possibly even cherry-pick additional commits on top.

Users are sometimes confused with two different types of "tracking" behavior
in Git: "remote-tracking" branches (e.g. refs/remotes/*/*) versus the
merge/rebase relationship between a local branch and its @{upstream}
(controlled by branch.foo.remote and branch.foo.merge config settings).
When the push.default is set to 'tracking', it specifies that a branch should
be pushed to its @{upstream} branch. In other words, setting push.default to
'tracking' applies only to the latter of the above two types of "tracking"
behavior.
In order to make this more understandable to the user, we rename the
push.default == 'tracking' option to push.default == 'upstream'.
push.default == 'tracking' is left as a deprecated synonym for 'upstream'.

Currently, the description sounds as if it applied always, but most of
its content is true in "create tag mode" only.
Make this clearer by listing all modes upfront.
Also, sneak in some linguistic improvements and make it clearer that
lightweight tags are "created" because "written" may be misread as
"are output".
