| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The SYNOPSIS section of gitattibutes and gitmodule fail to clearly specify the name of the in tree files used. This patch brings in the initial `.' and the fact that the `.gitmodules' file should reside at the top-level of the working tree.

| * gitattributes: -crlf is not binaryJunio C Hamano2008-08-301-3/+37
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The description of crlf attribute incorrectly said that "-crlf" means binary. It is true that for binary files you would want "-crlf", but that is not the same thing. We also have supported attribute macros and via that mechanism a handy "binary" to specify "-crlf -diff" at the same time. It was not documented anywhere as far as I can tell, even though the support was there from the very beginning. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
| * Fix example in git-name-rev documentationJunio C Hamano2008-08-301-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since 59d3f54 (name-rev: avoid "^0" when unneeded, 2007-02-20), name-rev stopped showing an unnecessary "^0" to dereference a tag down to a commit. The patch should have made a matching update to the documentation, but we forgot. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

The list of commands is arbitrary as long as it is acceptable to sh. The variables '$path' and '$sha1' are availble to the command-list, defining the submodule path relative to the superproject and the submodules's commitID as recorded in the superproject (this may be different than HEAD in the submodule). This utility is inspired by a number of threads on the mailing list looking for ways to better integrate submodules in a tree and work with them as a unit. This could include fetching a new branch in each from a given source, or possibly checking out a given named branch in each. Currently, there is no consensus as to what additional commands should be implemented in the porcelain, requiring all users whose needs exceed that of git-submodule to do their own scripting. The foreach command is intended to support such scripting, and in particular does no error checking and produces no output, thus allowing end users complete control over any information printed out and over what constitutes an error. The processing does terminate if the command-list returns an error, but processing can easily be forced for all submodules be terminating the list with ';true'.
