For normal users it's probably better to spell out what a shell glob is. This paragraph is updated to roughly tell (or remind) what the main wildcards are supposed to do. All the details are still hidden away behind the `fnmatch(3)` wall because bringing the whole specification here may be too much.

This will be used subsequently in gc and in the connectivity check used by fetch. For efficiency, if an object is referenced by a promisor object, and is in the local repo only as a non-promisor object, object traversal will not stop there. This is to avoid building the list of promisor object references. (In list-objects.c, the case where obj is NULL in process_blob() and process_tree() do not need to be changed because those happen only when there is a conflict between the expected type and the existing object. If the object doesn't exist, an object will be synthesized, which is fine.)

| * | | | | | | introduce fetch-object: fetch one promisor objectJonathan Tan2017-12-051-0/+7

This uses fetch-pack. To do this, the transport mechanism has been updated with 2 flags, "from-promisor" to indicate that the resulting pack comes from a promisor remote (and thus should be annotated as such by index-pack), and "no-dependents" to indicate that only the objects themselves need to be fetched (but fetching additional objects is nevertheless safe). Whenever "no-dependents" is used, fetch-pack will refrain from using any object flags, because it is most likely invoked as part of a dynamic object fetch by another Git command (which may itself use object flags). An alternative to this is to leave fetch-pack alone, and instead update the allocation of flags so that fetch-pack's flags never overlap with any others, but this will end up shrinking the number of flags available to nearly every other Git command (that is, every Git command that accesses objects), so the approach in this commit was used instead. This will be tested in a subsequent commit. Signed-off-by: Jonathan Tan <jonathantanmy@google.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

Doing so has errored out ever since --fixup was introduced. Before this, the only way to amend the fixup message while committing was to use --edit and amend it in the editor. The use-case for this feature is one of: * Leaving a quick note to self when creating a --fixup commit when it's not self-evident why the commit should be squashed without a note into another one. * (Ab)using the --fixup feature to "fix up" commits that have already been pushed to a branch that doesn't allow non-fast-forwards, i.e. just noting "this should have been part of that other commit", and if the history ever got rewritten in the future the two should be combined. In such a case you might want to leave a small message, e.g. "forgot this part, which broke XYZ". With this, --fixup <commit> -m"More" -m"Details" will result in a commit message like: !fixup <subject of <commit>> More Details The reason the test being added here seems to squash "More" at the end of the subject line of the commit being fixed up is because the test code is using "%s%b" so the body immediately follows the subject, it's not a bug in this code, and other tests t7500-commit.sh do the same thing. When the --fixup option was initially added the "Option -m cannot be combined" error was expanded from -c, -C and -F to also include --fixup[1] Those options could also support combining with -m, but given what they do I can't think of a good use-case for doing that, so I have not made the more invasive change of splitting up the logic in commit.c to first act on those, and then on -m options. 1. d71b8ba7c9 ("commit: --fixup option for use with rebase --autosquash", 2010-11-02) Helped-by: Eric Sunshine <sunshine@sunshineco.com> Signed-off-by: Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason <avarab@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

This was implemented at [2]; as seen by the sheer number of responses (>110), it turns out this is tricky to get right. The hard part to get right is picking the correct 'commit-ish' as that could be the commit that (re-)introduced the blob or the blob that removed the blob; the blob could exist in different branches. Junio hinted at a different approach of solving this problem, which this patch implements. Teach the diff machinery another flag for restricting the information to what is shown. For example: $ ./git log --oneline --find-object=v2.0.0:Makefile b2feb64309 Revert the whole "ask curl-config" topic for now 47fbfded53 i18n: only extract comments marked with "TRANSLATORS:" we observe that the Makefile as shipped with 2.0 was appeared in v1.9.2-471-g47fbfded53 and in v2.0.0-rc1-5-gb2feb6430b. The reason why these commits both occur prior to v2.0.0 are evil merges that are not found using this new mechanism.

After that commit, an i-t-a entry can appear as a new file in "git diff-files". But the diff callback function in wt-status.c does not handle this case and produces incorrect status output. PS. The reader may notice that this patch adds a new xstrdup() but not a free(). Yes we leak memory (the same for head_path). But wt_status so far has been short lived, this leak should not matter in practice.

Because it mentions all possible types (added, removed, etc), this may imply to the reader that all types can be generated by a particular command. But this isn't necessarily the case; "diff-files" cannot generally produce an "Added" entry, since the diff is limited to what is already in the index. Let's make it clear that the list here is the full one, and does not imply anything about what a particular invocation may produce. Note that conditionally including items (e.g., omitting "Added" in the git-diff-files manpage) isn't the right solution here for two reasons: - The problem isn't diff-files, but doing an index to working tree diff. "git diff" can do the same diff, but also has other modes where "Added" does show up. - The direction of the diff matters. Doing "diff-files -R" can get you Added entries (but not Deleted ones). So it's best just to explain that the set of available types depends on the specific diff invocation.

In order to italicize the `$path` argument the commands are enclosed in plus characters as opposed to backticks. The difference between the quoting methods is that backtick enclosed text is not subject to further expansion. This formatting makes reading SubmittingPatches in a git clone a little more difficult. In addition to the underscores around `$path` the `--` chars in `git shortlog --no-merges` must be replaced with `{litdd}`. Use backticks to quote these commands. The italicized `$path` is lost from the html version but the commands can be read (and copied) more easily by users reading the text version. These readers are more likely to use the commands while submitting patches. Make it easier for them. Signed-off-by: Todd Zullinger <tmz@pobox.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
