From 0bee59186976b1d9e6b2dd77332480c9480131d5 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Shawn O. Pearce" Date: Thu, 14 Dec 2006 17:41:17 -0500 Subject: Enable reflogs by default in any repository with a working directory. New and experienced Git users alike are finding out too late that they forgot to enable reflogs in the current repository, and cannot use the information stored within it to recover from an incorrectly entered command such as `git reset --hard HEAD^^^` when they really meant HEAD^^ (aka HEAD~2). So enable reflogs by default in all future versions of Git, unless the user specifically disables it with: [core] logAllRefUpdates = false in their .git/config or ~/.gitconfig. We only enable reflogs in repositories that have a working directory associated with them, as shared/bare repositories do not have an easy means to prune away old log entries, or may fail logging entirely if the user's gecos information is not valid during a push. This heuristic was suggested on the mailing list by Junio. Documentation was also updated to indicate the new default behavior. We probably should start to teach usuing the reflog to recover from mistakes in some of the tutorial material, as new users are likely to make a few along the way and will feel better knowing they can recover from them quickly and easily, without fsck-objects' lost+found features.

Pearce" Date: Sun, 17 Dec 2006 03:15:14 -0500 Subject: Default GIT_COMMITTER_NAME to login name in recieve-pack. If GIT_COMMITTER_NAME is not available in receive-pack but reflogs are enabled we would normally die out with an error message asking the user to correct their environment settings. Now that reflogs are enabled by default in (what we guessed to be) non-bare Git repositories this may cause problems for some users who don't have their full name in the gecos field and who don't have access to the remote system to correct the problem. So rather than die()'ing out in receive-pack when we try to log a ref change and have no committer name we default to the username, as obtained from the host's password database.

We broke the discipline Linus set up to allow compiler help us avoid typos in environment names in the early days of git over time. This defines a handful preprocessor constants for environment variable names used in relatively core parts of the system. I've left out variable names specific to subsystems such as HTTP and SSL as I do not think they are big problems.
