| * Documentation/git-archive: spell --worktree-attributes correctlyThomas Rast2011-01-101-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The --worktree-attributes option was correctly documented in ba053ea (archive: do not read .gitattributes in working directory, 2009-04-18). However, later in 9b4c8b0 (archive documentation: attributes are taken from the tree by default, 2010-02-10) the misspelling "--work-tree-attributes" was used to refer to it. Fix this.

* archive documentation: attributes are taken from the tree by defaultJunio C Hamano2010-02-121-0/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | By default, git-archive takes attributes from the tree being archived. People however often wonder why their attempts to affect the way how the command archives their tree by changing .gitattributes in their work tree fail. Add a bit of explanatory note to tell them how to achieve what they want to do. Noticed-by: Francois Marier Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
* Documentation: spell 'git cmd' without dash throughoutThomas Rast2010-01-101-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The documentation was quite inconsistent when spelling 'git cmd' if it only refers to the program, not to some specific invocation syntax: both 'git-cmd' and 'git cmd' spellings exist. The current trend goes towards dashless forms, and there is precedent in 647ac70 (git-svn.txt: stop using dash-form of commands., 2009-07-07) to actively eliminate the dashed variants. Replace 'git-cmd' with 'git cmd' throughout, except where git-shell, git-cvsserver, git-upload-pack, git-receive-pack, and git-upload-archive are concerned, because those really live in the $PATH.

* git-archive: infer output format from filename when unspecifiedDmitry Potapov2009-09-131-2/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A command line $ git archive -o my-v2.0.zip v2.0 almost certainly wants the output in zip format, even though it does not specify any --format option. When --format is not given, but output filename is, try to infer what format is requested from the filename extension. Currently this code only knows about '.zip'. When the format is unspecified and the filename does not tell us, the output will be in 'tar' format as before. Of course, an explicit --format will not trigger this guesswork.

* git-archive: add '-o' as a alias for '--output'Dmitry Potapov2009-09-131-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | The '-o' option is commonly used in many tools to specify the output file. Typing '--output' every time is a bit too long to be a practical alternative to redirecting output. But specifying the output name has the advantage of making possible to guess the desired output format by filename extension.

* Documentation formatting and cleanupJonathan Nieder2008-07-011-3/+3

* Documentation: be consistent about "git-" versus "git "Jonathan Nieder2008-07-011-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since the git-* commands are not installed in $(bindir), using "git-command <parameters>" in examples in the documentation is not a good idea. On the other hand, it is nice to be able to refer to each command using one hyphenated word. (There is no escaping it, anyway: man page names cannot have spaces in them.) This patch retains the dash in naming an operation, command, program, process, or action. Complete command lines that can be entered at a shell (i.e., without options omitted) are made to use the dashless form. The changes consist only of replacing some spaces with hyphens and vice versa. After a "s/ /-/g", the unpatched and patched versions are identical. Signed-off-by: Jonathan Nieder <jrnieder@uchicago.edu> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
* Docs: Use "-l::\n--long\n" format in OPTIONS sectionsStephan Beyer2008-06-081-2/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The OPTIONS section of a documentation file contains a list of the options a git command accepts. Currently there are several variants to describe the case that different options (almost) do the same in the OPTIONS section. Some are: -f, --foo:: -f|--foo:: -f | --foo:: But AsciiDoc has the special form: -f:: --foo:: This patch applies this form to the documentation of the whole git suite, and removes useless em-dash prevention, so \--foo becomes --foo.

* Add git-archiveFranck Bui-Huu2006-09-091-0/+100
git-archive is a command to make TAR and ZIP archives of a git tree. It helps prevent a proliferation of git-{format}-tree commands. Instead of directly calling git-{tar,zip}-tree command, it defines a very simple API, that archiver should implement and register in "git-archive.c". This API is made up by 2 functions whose prototype is defined in "archive.h" file. - The first one is used to parse 'extra' parameters which have signification only for the specific archiver. That would allow different archive backends to have different kind of options. - The second one is used to ask to an archive backend to build the archive given some already resolved parameters. The main reason for making this API is to avoid using git-{tar,zip}-tree commands, hence making them useless. Maybe it's time for them to die ? It also implements remote operations by defining a very simple protocol: it first sends the name of the specific uploader followed the repository name (git-upload-tar git://example.org/repo.git). Then it sends options. It's done by sending a sequence of one argument per packet, with prefix "argument ", followed by a flush. The remote protocol is implemented in "git-archive.c" for client side and is triggered by "--remote=<repo>" option. For example, to fetch a TAR archive in a remote repo, you can issue: $ git archive --format=tar --remote=git://xxx/yyy/zzz.git HEAD We choose to not make a new command "git-fetch-archive" for example, avoind one more GIT command which should be nice for users (less commands to remember, keeps existing --remote option).
