* tutorial: clarify "pull" is "fetch + merge"Junio C Hamano2008-07-141-1/+27
| | | | | | | | | | | The document says that a fetch with a configured remote stores what are fetched in the remote tracking branches "Unlike the longhand form", but there is no longhand form "fetch" demonstrated earlier. This adds a missing demonstration of the longhand form, and a new paragraph to explain why some people might want to fetch before pull. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

| * | | | | Documentation: tweak use case in "git stash save --keep-index"Eric Raible2008-07-081-7/+8

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.

When the '--keep-index' option is specified, after that 'git reset --hard' the previous contents of the index is restored and the work tree is updated to match the index. This option is useful if the user wants to commit only parts of his local modifications, but wants to test those parts before committing. Also add support for the completion of the new option, and add an example use case to the documentation.

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.

Useful for avoiding slow network directories. For example, I use git in an environment where homedirs are automounted and "ls /home/nonexistent" takes about 9 seconds. Setting GIT_CEILING_DIRS="/home" allows "git help -a" (for bash completion) and "git symbolic-ref" (for my shell prompt) to run in a reasonable time.

Rather than argue over which programs are important enough to have work anyway, just fix all of them at the root. Also removes GIT_LOCAL_CONFIG, which would only be useful for programs that do want to use global git-specific config, but not the repo's own git-specific config, and want to use some other, presumably git-specific config.

So we render them in italics, as is usual for command names in manpages. Using doit () { perl -e 'for (<>) { s/\`(git-[^\`.]*)\`/'\''\1'\''/g; print }' } for i in git*.txt config.txt diff*.txt blame*.txt fetch*.txt i18n.txt \ merge*.txt pretty*.txt pull*.txt rev*.txt urls*.txt do doit <"$i" >"$i+" && mv "$i+" "$i" done git diff .

* | | | | | | | | Documentation: more "git-" versus "git " changesJonathan Nieder2008-07-0513-71/+71

So we use a dash after "git" when referring to the former and not the latter. I already sent a patch doing this same thing, but I missed some spots.
