* Documentation updates.Junio C Hamano2005-08-1413-17/+231
| | | | | | | | Linus brought up that documentation for many commands have incorrect attribution. I started counting lines again, but ended up adding a handful of missing manual pages. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
* Add SubmittingPatchesJunio C Hamano2005-08-131-0/+130
| | | | | | | | Not that I have stricter patch submission standard than ordinary projects, I wanted to have it to make sure people understand what they are doing when they add their own Signed-off-by line. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
* [PATCH] Use $DESTDIR instead of $destPetr Baudis2005-08-121-3/+4
| | | | | | | | $DESTDIR is more usual during the build than $dest and is what is usually used in the makefiles, so let's use it too. Signed-off-by: Petr Baudis <pasky@ucw.cz> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
* fetch-pack: start multi-head pulling.Junio C Hamano2005-08-121-11/+7
| | | | | | | | | | This is a beginning of resurrecting the multi-head pulling support for git-fetch-pack command. The git-fetch-script wrapper still only knows about fetching a single head, without renaming, so it is not very useful unless you directly call git-fetch-pack itself yet. It also fixes a longstanding obsolete description of how the command discovers the list of local commits.
* Update unpack-objects usage and documentation.Junio C Hamano2005-08-121-1/+7
| | | | | It long supported -q flag to suppress progress meter without properly being documented.
* ls-remote: drop storing operation and add documentation.Junio C Hamano2005-08-091-0/+64
| | | | | | | | | | The store operation was never useful because we needed to fetch the objects needed to complete the reference. Remove it. The fetch command fetch multiple references shortly to replace the lost "store" functionality in more a generic way. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

* [PATCH] Assorted documentation patchesJohannes Schindelin2005-08-0519-50/+58
| | | | | | | | | | [jc: Johannes spent time and effort to see how consistent our use of terminilogy is, and as a byproduct made these corrections not related to the terminology unification. I really appreciate it.] Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <Johannes.Schindelin@gmx.de> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

* Retire check-files.Junio C Hamano2005-08-031-3/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | The king penguin said: It has no point any more, all the tools check the file status on their own, and yes, the thing should probably be removed. and the faithful servant makes it so. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
* git-send-pack: documentationJunio C Hamano2005-08-031-1/+47
| | | | | | | Describe the renaming push. The wording is horrible and I would appreciate a rewrite, but it is better than nothing ;-). Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

* receive-pack hooks updates.Junio C Hamano2005-08-021-20/+20
| | | | | | | | The earlier one conflated update and post-update hooks for no good reason. Correct that ugly hack. Now post-update hooks will take the list of successfully updated refs. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
* [PATCH] git-merge-cache -q doesn't complain about failing merge programPetr Baudis2005-08-011-2/+7
| | | | | | | | | | git-merge-cache reporting failed merge program is undesirable for Cogito, since it emits its own more appropriate error message in that case. However, I want to show other possible git-merge-cache error messages. So -q will just silence this particular error.

* [PATCH] Updates to tutorial.txtJohannes Schindelin2005-08-011-19/+17

* CVS-like push-pull description update.Junio C Hamano2005-08-011-6/+4
| | | | | | | | | | - Yes, push does not lock, but that does not mean it is not meant for multi-user repository. It just ought to perform correctly without using locks. - Let's not pretend we know _the_ right way. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

* [PATCH] Added hook in git-receive-packJosef Weidendorfer2005-07-311-0/+49
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Just before updating a ref, $GIT_DIR/hooks/update refname old-sha1 new-sha1 is called if executable. The hook can decline the ref to be updated by exiting with a non-zero status, or allow it to be updated by exiting with a zero status. The mechanism also allows e.g sending of a mail with pushed commits on the remote repository. Documentation update with an example hook is included. jc: The credits of the basic idea and initial implementation go to Josef, but I ended up rewriting major parts of his patch, so bugs are all mine. Also I changed the semantics for the hook from his original version (which were post-update hook) so that the hook can optionally decline to update the ref, and also can be used to implement the overall cleanups. The latter was primarily to implement a suggestion from Linus that calling update-server-info should be made optional. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

* Tutorial: use a bit longer sample filenames.Junio C Hamano2005-07-291-40/+40
| | | | | | | | | | | Darrin Thompson noticed when he was showing off GIT to others that the use of filenames "a" and "b" in the tutorial example was unnecessarily confusing, especially with our "patch -p1" prefix a/ and b/, without giving us any patch. I was very tempted to change them back to l/ and k/ prefixes, but decided to restrain myself and update the tutorial instead ;-). Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

* Update tutorial.txt branches/tags to use the nicer helper syntaxLinus Torvalds2005-07-231-21/+31
| | | | | | Teach people to use "git tag <tag-name>" instead of writing the current HEAD by hand into the .git/refs/tags/<tag-name> file. Most people probably don't really want to know about how git does things internally.

| | | | | | | | | | Update the recommended workflow for individual developers.

| | | | | | | | | | | While adding the documentation for these two commands, I noticed that the name of the program on the other end (git-upload-pack) is already almost configurable but git-clone-pack lacked command line parameter parsing to actually use anything but default, so I introduced --exec= like other remote commands while I was at it.
