| * git-shortlog.txt: make SYNOPSIS match log, update OPTIONSRamkumar Ramachandra2013-04-211-2/+17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There are broadly two problems with the current SYNOPSIS. First, it completely omits the detail that paths can be specified. Second, it attempts to list all the options: this is futile as, in addition to the options unique to it, it accepts all the options that git-rev-list accepts. In fixing these problems, make the SYNOPSIS consistent with that in git-log.txt. Also add the corresponding sections to OPTIONS. Save adding the options from rev-list-options.txt for a later patch, as it requires some work to pick out the options that are relevant to shortlog.

| * git-log.txt: rewrite note on why "--" may be requiredRamkumar Ramachandra2013-04-211-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In its current form, the note talks about separating options from "branch names" and "refnames" in the same sentence. This is entirely inaccurate, as <revision range> need not be a set of branch names or ref names. Rewrite it to use the word "revision range", to be consistent with the SYNOPSIS.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | '<since>..<until>' is misleading, as there are many other forms that 'git log' can accept as an argument. Replace it with <revision range>, referring to the section "Specifying Ranges" in revisions.txt, and rewrite the section appropriately.

|\ \ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The wording for "revision" in the glossary wanted to say it refers to "commit (noun) as a concept" but it was badly phrased. This may need further updates to hint that in contexts where it is clear, the word may refer to an object name, not necessarily a commit. But the patch as-is is already an improvement. * jn/glossary-revision: glossary: a revision is just a commit

| |/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The current definition of 'revision' sounds like it is saying that a revision is a tree object. In reality it is just a commit. This should be especially useful for people used to other revision control systems trying to see how familiar concepts translate into git terms.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In the historical context of "git add --all ." that pays attention to "all kinds of changes" (implying "without ignoring removals"), the option to countermand it "--no-all" may have made sense, but because we will be making "--all" the default when a pathspec is given, it makes more sense to rename the option to a more explicit "--ignore-removal". The "--all" option naturally becomes its negation, "--no-ignore-removal". Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

However, the DIR_COLLECT_IGNORED flag to enable this has some git-add specific side-effects (e.g. it doesn't recurse into ignored directories, so listing ignored files with --untracked=all doesn't work). The DIR_SHOW_IGNORED flag doesn't list untracked files and returns ignored files in dir_struct.entries[] (instead of dir_struct.ignored[] as DIR_COLLECT_IGNORED). DIR_SHOW_IGNORED is used all throughout git. We don't want to break the existing API, so lets introduce a new flag DIR_SHOW_IGNORED_TOO that lists untracked as well as ignored files similar to DIR_COLLECT_FILES, but will recurse into sub-directories based on the other flags as DIR_SHOW_IGNORED does. In dir.c::read_directory_recursive, add ignored files to either dir_struct.entries[] or dir_struct.ignored[] based on the flags. Also move the DIR_COLLECT_IGNORED case here so that filling result lists is in a common place. In wt-status.c::wt_status_collect_untracked, use the new flag and read results from dir_struct.ignored[]. Remove the extra fill_directory call. builtin/check-ignore.c doesn't call fill_directory, setting the git-add specific DIR_COLLECT_IGNORED flag has no effect here. Remove for clarity. Update API documentation to reflect the changes. Performance: with this patch, 'git-status --ignored' is typically as fast as 'git-status'.

This sometimes confuses new people, as arguably "git add" is told to record the current state of "subdir/" as a whole, not the current state of the paths that exist in the working tree that matches that pathspec (the latter by definition excludes the state of "subdir/z" because it does not exist in the working tree). Plan to eventually make "git add" pretend as if "-A" is given when there is a pathspec on the command line. When resolving a conflict to remove a path, the current code tells you to "git rm $path", but with such a change, you will be able to say "git add $path" (of course you can do "git add -A $path" today). That means that we can simplify the advice messages given by "git status". That all will be in Git 2.0 or later, if we are going to do so. For that transition to work, people need to learn either to say "git add --no-all subdir/" when they want to ignore the removed paths like "subdir/z", or to say "git add -A subdir/" when they want to take the state of the directory as a whole. "git add" without any argument will continue to be a no-op. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

In sparse checkout mode, this command is overloaded with another meaning: to add back all files in <paths> that are excluded by sparse patterns. As the former makes more sense for day-to-day use. Switch it to the default and the latter enabled with --ignore-skip-worktree-bits.

So don't duplicate this here in the glossary. Actually the definition of "pathspec" should be moved to a separate file akin to the way it's done with "refspec". But this will only be wortwhile when there's more to say about it. So for the time being just improve the first sentence a little bit; fix the indentation of the first paragraph after the bullet list and remove the one-item list of magic signatures with its - for the user - unnecessary introduction of "magic word 'top'".

This alleviates the need for the admin to set http.receivepack in the repositories, and means that the client is challenged for credentials immediately, instead of partway through the push process (and git clients older than v1.7.11.7 had trouble handling these challenges). Since detecting a push during the ref advertisement requires matching the query string, and this is non-trivial to do in Apache, we have traditionally punted and instructed users to just protect "/git-receive-pack$". This patch provides the mod_rewrite recipe to actually match the ref advertisement, which is preferred. While we're at it, let's add the recipe to our test scripts so that we can be sure that it works, and doesn't get broken (either by our changes or by changes in Apache).
