* git-svn: don't allow globs to match regular filesEric Wong2007-04-181-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | git only tracks the histories of full directories, not that of individual files. Sometimes, SVN users will place[1] a regular file in the directory designated for subdirectories of branches or tags. Thanks to jrockway on #git for pointing this out. [1] mistakenly or otherwise, such as a README Signed-off-by: Eric Wong <normalperson@yhbt.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

* Update git-annotate/git-blame documentationAndrew Ruder2007-04-163-64/+82
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Moved options that pertained to both git-blame and git-annotate to a common file blame-options.txt. builtin-blame.c: Removed --compatibility, --long, --time from the short usage as they are not handled in the code. Documentation/git-blame.txt: Removed common options to git-annotate. Added documentation for --score-debug. Removed --compatibility. Adjusted usage at top to not wrap on 80 columns. Documentation/git-annotate.txt: Using common options blame-options.txt. Documentation/blame-options.txt: Added -b note about associated config option, added --root note about associated config option, added documentation for --show-stats. Removed --long, --time, --rev-file as those options do not really exist. Added documentation for -M/-C taking an optional score argument for detection of moved lines.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Please see http://bugs.debian.org/404795: In git-rev-parse(1), there is an example commit tree, which is used twice. The explanation for this tree is very clear: B and C are commit *parents* to A. However, when the tree is reused as an example in the SPECIFYING RANGES, the manpage author screws up and uses A as a commit *parent* to B and C! I.e., he inverts the tree. And the fact that for this example you need to read the tree backwards is not explained anywhere (and it would be confusing even if it was).

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I was using "branch" to mean "head", but that's perhaps a little sloppy; so instead start by using the terms "branch head" and "head", while still quickly falling back on "branch", since that's what people actually say more frequently. Also include glossary references on the first uses of "head" and "tag". Signed-off-by: "J. Bruce Fields" <bfields@citi.umich.edu>
