* Rename path_list to string_listJohannes Schindelin2008-07-213-127/+129
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The name path_list was correct for the first usage of that data structure, but it really is a general-purpose string list. $ perl -i -pe 's/path-list/string-list/g' $(git grep -l path-list) $ perl -i -pe 's/path_list/string_list/g' $(git grep -l path_list) $ git mv path-list.h string-list.h $ git mv path-list.c string-list.c $ perl -i -pe 's/has_path/has_string/g' $(git grep -l has_path) $ perl -i -pe 's/path/string/g' string-list.[ch] $ git mv Documentation/technical/api-path-list.txt \ Documentation/technical/api-string-list.txt $ perl -i -pe 's/strdup_paths/strdup_strings/g' $(git grep -l strdup_paths) ... and then fix all users of string-list to access the member "string" instead of "path". Documentation/technical/api-string-list.txt needed some rewrapping, too. Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

| | | | | | | | | | With git-am, it sounds awkward to have the patches in ".git/rebase/", but for technical reasons, we have to keep the same directory name for git-am and git-rebase.

This patch extends the relevant programs to make them correctly process gitlinks. Links can be represented by two forms of the Modify command: M 160000 SHA1 some/path which sets the link target explicitly, or M 160000 :mark some/path where the mark refers to a commit. The latter form can be used by importing tools to build all submodules simultaneously in one physical repository, and then simply fetch them apart.

* | | Documentation/git-merge.txt: Partial rewrite of How Merge WorksPetr Baudis2008-07-191-47/+29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The git-merge documentation's "HOW MERGE WORKS" section is confusingly composed and actually omits the most interesting part, the merging of the arguments into HEAD itself, surprisingly not actually mentioning the fast-forward merge anywhere. This patch replaces the "[NOTE]" screenful of highly technical details by a single sentence summing up the interesting information, and instead explains how are the arguments compared with HEAD and the three possible inclusion states that are named "Already up-to-date", "Fast-forward" and "True merge". It also makes it clear that the rest of the section talks only about the true merge situation, and slightly expands the talk on solving conflicts. Junio initiated the removal of the Note screenful altogether and offered many stylistical fixes. Signed-off-by: Petr Baudis <pasky@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

The description of this option is lifted to a more "porcelainish" level and explains the caveats of this usecase. Whether feasible or not, I believe adding this functionality to the porcelain is out of the scope of this patch. (And I personally think that referring to the plumbing in the case of such a special usage is fine.) This is currently probably one of the top FAQs at #git and the --assume-unchanged switch is not widely known; gitignore(5) is the first place where people are likely to look for it.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | "git-branch --merged" is a handy way to list all the branches that have already been merged to the current branch, but it did not allow checking against anything but the current branch. Having to switch branches only to list the branches that are merged with another branch made the feature practically useless.

* | | | | git-submodule - make "submodule add" more strict, and document itMark Levedahl2008-07-141-9/+27

With this change, the required syntax is: $ git submodule add URL path Specifically, this eliminates the form $ git submodule add URL which was confused by more than one person as $ git submodule add path With this patch, the URL locating the submodule's origin repository can be either an absolute URL, or (if it begins with ./ or ../) can express the submodule's repository location relative to the superproject's origin. This patch also eliminates a third form of URL, which was relative to the superproject's top-level directory (not its repository). Any URL that was neither absolute nor matched ./*|../* was assumed to point to a subdirectory of the superproject as the location of the submodule's origin repository. This URL form was confusing and does not seem to correspond to an important use-case. Specifically, no-one has identified the need to clone from a repository already in the superproject's tree, but if this is needed it is easily done using an absolute URL: $(pwd)/relative-path. So, no functionality is lost with this patch. (t6008-rev-list-submodule.sh did rely upon this relative URL, fixed by using $(pwd).) Following this change, there are exactly four variants of submodule-add, as both arguments have two flavors: URL can be absolute, or can begin with ./|../ and thus names the submodule's origin relative to the superproject's origin. Note: With this patch, "submodule add" discerns an absolute URL as matching /*|*:*: e.g., URL begins with /, or it contains a :. This works for all valid URLs, an absolute path in POSIX, as well as an absolute path on Windows). path can either already exist as a valid git repo, or will be cloned from the given URL. The first form here eases creation of a new submodule in an existing superproject as the submodule can be added and tested in-tree before pushing to the public repository. However, the more usual form is the second, where the repo is cloned from the given URL. This specifically addresses the issue of $ git submodule add a/b/c attempting to clone from a repository at "a/b/c" to create a new module in "c". This also simplifies description of "relative URL" as there is now exactly *one* form: a URL relative to the parent's origin repo.

And given that the changes are about to be committed anyway "git stash pop" is more sensible. Additionally the text preceeding the example claims that it works for "two or more commits", but the example itself is really tailored for just two. Expanding it just a little makes it clear how the procedure generalizes to N commits. Finally the example is annotated with some commentary to explain things on a line-by-line basis.

If the resulting patch applies cleanly, the edited hunk will immediately be marked for staging. If it does not apply cleanly, you will be given an opportunity to edit again. If all lines of the hunk are removed, then the edit is aborted and the hunk is left unchanged. Applying the changed hunk(s) relies on Johannes Schindelin's new --recount option for git-apply. Note that the "real patch" test intentionally uses (echo e; echo n; echo d) | git add -p even though the 'n' and 'd' are superfluous at first sight. They serve to get out of the interaction loop if git add -p wrongly concludes the patch does not apply. Many thanks to Jeff King <peff@peff.net> for lots of help and suggestions.

The --root option we introduced previously does the same, and we can call it the same way to give users more familiar feel. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
