| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In some projects contributions from groups are only accepted from a common group email address. But every individual may want to receive replies to her own personal address. That's what we have 'Reply-To' headers for in SMTP. So introduce an optional '--reply-to' command line option. This patch re-uses the $reply_to variable. This could break out-of-tree patches! Signed-off-by: Christian Ludwig <chrissicool@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

| | |/ | |/| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The http-protocol.txt spec fails to mention that a flush packet comes in the smart server response after sending the "service" header. Technically the client code is actually ready to receive an arbitrary number of headers here, but since we haven't introduced any other headers in the past decade (and the client would just throw them away), let's not mention it in the spec. This fixes both BNF and the example. While we're fixing the latter, let's also add the missing flush after the ref list.

Like 'move' you cannot remove the main worktree, or one with submodules inside [1]. For deleting $GIT_WORK_TREE, Untracked files or any staged entries are considered precious and therefore prevent removal by default. Ignored files are not precious. When it comes to deleting $GIT_DIR, there's no "clean" check because there should not be any valuable data in there, except: - HEAD reflog. There is nothing we can do about this until somebody steps up and implements the ref graveyard. - Detached HEAD. Technically it can still be recovered. Although it may be nice to warn about orphan commits like 'git checkout' does. [1] We do 'git status' with --ignore-submodules=all for safety anyway. But this needs a closer look by submodule people before we can allow deletion. For example, if a submodule is totally clean, but its repo not absorbed to the main .git dir, then deleting worktree also deletes the valuable .submodule repo too.

Main worktree cannot (yet) be moved. There are two options to move the main worktree, but both have complications, so it's not implemented yet. Anyway the options are: - convert the main worktree to a linked one and move it away, leave the git repository where it is. The repo essentially becomes bare after this move. - move the repository with the main worktree. The tricky part is make sure all file descriptors to the repository are closed, or it may fail on Windows.

On top of that, commits that add or remove files double the number of display lines, which could be a lot if you add or remove a lot of files. --compact-summary embeds most of --summary back in --stat in the little space between the file name part and the graph line, e.g. with commit 0433d533f1: Documentation/merge-config.txt | 4 + builtin/merge.c | 2 + ...-pull-verify-signatures.sh (new +x) | 81 ++++++++++++++ t/t7612-merge-verify-signatures.sh | 45 ++++++++ 4 files changed, 132 insertions(+) It helps both condensing information and saving some text space. What's new in diffstat is: - A new 0644 file is shown as (new) - A new 0755 file is shown as (new +x) - A new symlink is shown as (new +l) - A deleted file is shown as (gone) - A mode change adding executable bit is shown as (mode +x) - A mode change removing it is shown as (mode -x) Note that --compact-summary does not contain all the information --summary provides.

It also includes test cases for the xfuncname regex (t4018) and updated documentation. The xfuncname regex finds functions, structs and interfaces. Although the Go language prohibits the opening brace from being on its own line, the regex does not makes it mandatory, to be able to match `func` statements like this: func foo(bar int, baz int) { } This is covered by the test case t4018/golang-long-func. The word_regex pattern finds identifiers, integers, floats, complex numbers and operators, according to the go specification.

This was appropriate default for integrators who pull signed tags from their downstream contributors, but caused an unnecessary merges when used by downstream contributors who habitually "catch up" their topic branches with tagged releases from the upstream. Update "git merge" to default to --no-ff only when merging a tag object that does *not* sit at its usual place in refs/tags/ hierarchy, and allow fast-forwarding otherwise, to mitigate the problem. * jc/allow-ff-merging-kept-tags: merge: allow fast-forward when merging a tracked tag

This default is good for merges made by upstream maintainers to integrate work signed by downstream contributors, but will leave pointless no-ff merges when downstream contributors pull a newer release tag to make their long-running topic branches catch up with the upstream. When there is no local work left on the topic, such a merge should simply fast-forward to the commit pointed at by the release tag. Update the default (again) for "git merge" that merges a tag object to (1) --no-ff (i.e. create a merge commit even when side branch fast forwards) if the tag being merged is not at its expected place in refs/tags/ hierarchy and (2) --ff (i.e. allow fast-forward update when able) otherwise.

Some however may find the "git show" command behind it too limiting. You may want to increase context lines, do a diff that ignores whitespaces... For these advanced use cases, the user can execute any command they want with the new pseudo ref REBASE_HEAD. This also helps show where the stopped commit is from, which is hard to see from the previous patch which implements --show-current-patch.

The only way to do it now is less .git/rebase-*/patch which could turn out to be a lot longer to type if you are in a linked worktree, or not at top-dir. On top of that, an ordinary user should not need to peek into .git directory. The new option is provided to examine the patch.

This allows for doing any of: git fetch -p -P git fetch --prune --prune-tags git fetch -p -P origin git fetch --prune --prune-tags origin Or simply: git config fetch.prune true && git config fetch.pruneTags true && git fetch Instead of the much more verbose: git fetch --prune origin 'refs/tags/*:refs/tags/*' '+refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/*' Before this feature it was painful to support the use-case of pulling from a repo which is having both its branches *and* tags deleted regularly, and have our local references to reflect upstream. At work we create deployment tags in the repo for each rollout, and there's *lots* of those, so they're archived within weeks for performance reasons. Without this change it's hard to centrally configure such repos in /etc/gitconfig (on servers that are only used for working with them). You need to set fetch.prune=true globally, and then for each repo: git -C {} config --replace-all remote.origin.fetch "refs/tags/*:refs/tags/*" "^\+*refs/tags/\*:refs/tags/\*$" Now I can simply set fetch.pruneTags=true in /etc/gitconfig as well, and users running "git pull" will automatically get the pruning semantics I want. Even though "git remote" has corresponding "prune" and "update --prune" subcommands I'm intentionally not adding a corresponding prune-tags or "update --prune --prune-tags" mode to that command. It's advertised (as noted in my recent "git remote doc: correct dangerous lies about what prune does") as only modifying remote tracking references, whereas any --prune-tags option is always going to modify what from the user's perspective is a local copy of the tag, since there's no such thing as a remote tracking tag. Ideally add_prune_tags_to_fetch_refspec() would be something that would use ALLOC_GROW() to grow the 'fetch` member of the 'remote' struct. Instead I'm realloc-ing remote->fetch and adding the tag_refspec to the end. The reason is that parse_{fetch,push}_refspec which allocate the refspec (ultimately remote->fetch) struct are called many places that don't have access to a 'remote' struct. It would be hard to change all their callsites to be amenable to carry around the bookkeeping variables required for dynamic allocation. All the other callers of the API first incrementally construct the string version of the refspec in remote->fetch_refspec via add_fetch_refspec(), before finally calling parse_fetch_refspec() via some variation of remote_get(). It's less of a pain to deal with the one special case that needs to modify already constructed refspecs than to chase down and change all the other callsites. The API I'm adding is intentionally not generalized because if we add more of these we'd probably want to re-visit how this is done.

This isn't true, and hasn't been true since at least v1.8.5.6 (the oldest version I could be bothered to test). E.g. if "refs/tags/*:refs/tags/*" is explicitly set in the refspec of the remote, it'll delete all local tags <name> doesn't know about. Instead, briefly give the reader just enough of a hint that this option might constitute a shotgun aimed at their foot, and point them to the new PRUNING section in the git-fetch documentation which explains all the nuances of what this facility does.
