2005-11-18Do not show .exe in git command list.Junio C Hamano
Truncate the result from readdir() in the exec-path if they end with .exe, to make it a bit more readable on Cygwin. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2005-11-16git wrapper: basic fixes.Junio C Hamano
Updates to fix the nits found during the list discussion. - Lose PATH_TO_MAN; just rely on execlp() to find whereever the "man" command is installed. - Do not randomly chdir(), but concatenate to the current working directory only if the given path is not absolute. - Lose use of glob(); read from exec_path and do sorting ourselves -- it is not that much more work.

2005-11-16git --help COMMAND brings up the git-COMMAND man-page.Andreas Ericsson
It's by design a bit stupid (matching ^git rather than ^git-), so as to work with 'gitk' and 'git' as well. Signed-off-by: Andreas Ericsson <ae@op5.se> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2005-11-16C implementation of the 'git' program, take two.Andreas Ericsson
This patch provides a C implementation of the 'git' program and introduces support for putting the git-* commands in a directory of their own. It also saves some time on executing those commands in a tight loop and it prints the currently available git commands in a nicely formatted list. The location of the GIT_EXEC_PATH (name discussion's closed, thank gods) can be obtained by running git --exec-path which will hopefully give porcelainistas ample time to adapt their heavy-duty loops to call the core programs directly and thus save the extra fork() / execve() overhead, although that's not really necessary any more. The --exec-path value is prepended to $PATH, so the git-* programs should Just Work without ever requiring any changes to how they call other programs in the suite. Some timing values for 10000 invocations of git-var >&/dev/null: git.sh: 24.194s git.c: 9.044s git-var: 7.377s The git-<tab><tab> behaviour can, along with the someday-to-be-deprecated git-<command> form of invocation, be indefinitely retained by adding the following line to one's .bash_profile or equivalent: PATH=$PATH:$(git --exec-path) Experimental libraries can be used by either setting the environment variable GIT_EXEC_PATH, or by using git --exec-path=/some/experimental/exec-path Relative paths are properly grok'ed as exec-path values.
