* Describe git-clone's actual behavior in the summarySteven Grimm2007-01-06
| | | | | | | | | | If a branch other than "master" is checked out in the origin repository, git-clone makes a local copy of that branch rather than the origin's "master" branch. This patch describes the actual behavior. Signed-off-by: Steven Grimm <koreth@midwinter.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

* git-clone: lose the traditional 'no-separate-remote' layoutJunio C Hamano2006-12-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Finally. The separate-remote layout is so much more organized than traditional and easier to work with especially when you need to deal with remote repositories with multiple branches and/or you need to deal with more than one remote repositories, and using traditional layout for new repositories simply does not make much sense. Internally we still have code for 1:1 mappings to create a bare clone; that is a good thing and will not go away. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
* git-clone documentationQuy Tonthat2006-12-15
| | | | | | | | When --use-separate-remote is used on git-clone, the remote heads are saved under $GIT_DIR/refs/remotes/origin/, not "$GIT_DIR/remotes/origin/" Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
* Documentation: update git-clone man page with new behaviorJ. Bruce Fields2006-12-07
| | | | | | | | | Update git-clone man page to reflect recent changes (--use-separate-remote default and use of .git/config instead of remotes files), and rewrite introduction. Signed-off-by: J. Bruce Fields <bfields@citi.umich.edu> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
* git-clone: Rename --use-immingled-remote option to --no-separate-remoteJakub Narebski2006-12-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | With making --use-separate-remote default when creating non-bare clone, there was need for the flag which would turn off this behavior. It was called --use-immingled-remote. Immingle means to blend, to combine into one, to intermingle, but it is a bit obscure word. I think it would be better to use simply --no-separate-remote as the opposite to --use-separate-remote option to git clone.

* Make git-clone --use-separate-remote the defaultPetr Baudis2006-11-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | We've talked about this for quite some time on the list, and it is a sane thing to do for a repository with an associcated working tree. For somebody who wants to use the traditional layout, there is a backward compatibility option --use-immingled-remote, but it is expected to be removed before the next major release.

* Retire git-clone-packJunio C Hamano2006-06-21
| | | | | | | | The program is not used by git-clone since git-fetch-pack was extended to allow its caller do what git-clone-pack alone did, and git-clone was updated to use it. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

* Several trivial documentation touch ups.sean2006-05-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Move incorrect asciidoc level 2 titles back to level 1. Show output of git-name-rev in man page example. Reword sentences that begin with a period (.) in asciidoc numbered lists to work around conversion to man page bug. Mention that git-repack now calls git-prune-packed when the -d option is passed to it. [imap] section headers in the config file example need to be contained in a literal block. imap.pass is the proper config file variable to use, not imap.password.

* Document git-clone --referenceShawn Pearce2006-04-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | The new --reference flag introduced to git-clone in GIT 1.3.0 was not documented but is rather handy. So document it. Also corrected a minor issue with the documentation for the -s flag; the info/alternates file name was spelled wrong. Signed-off-by: Shawn O.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The new option --naked is to help creating a naked repository for public consumption. $ git clone -l -s --naked \ /pub/scm/.../torvalds/linux-2.6.git subproj-2.6.git is equivalent to this sequence: $ git clone -l -s -n /pub/scm/.../torvalds/linux-2.6.git temp $ mv temp/.git subproj-2.6.git $ rmdir temp Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

* | git-clone: Support changing the origin branch with -oJohannes Schindelin2005-12-22
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | Earlier, git-clone stored upstream's master in the branch named 'origin', possibly overwriting an existing such branch. Now you can change it by calling git-clone with '-o <other_name>'.

* git-clone: Keep remote names when cloning unless explicitly told not to.Andreas Ericsson2005-11-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | With this patch the following commands all clone into the local directory "repo". If repo exists, it will still barf. git-clone git://host.xz/repo.git git-clone /path/to/repo/.git git-clone host.xz:repo.git I ended up doing the same source-to-target sed'ing for all our company projects, so it was easier to add it directly to git-clone.

* Set up remotes/origin to track all remote branches.Junio C Hamano2005-11-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | This implements the idea Daniel Barkalow came up with, to match the remotes/origin created by clone by default to the workflow I use myself in my guinea pig repository, to have me eat my own dog food. We probably would want to use either .git/refs/local/heads/* (idea by Linus) or .git/refs/heads/origin/* instead to reduce the local ref namespace pollution.

* Big tool rename.Junio C Hamano2005-09-07
As promised, this is the "big tool rename" patch. The primary differences since 0.99.6 are: (1) git-*-script are no more. The commands installed do not have any such suffix so users do not have to remember if something is implemented as a shell script or not. (2) Many command names with 'cache' in them are renamed with 'index' if that is what they mean. There are backward compatibility symblic links so that you and Porcelains can keep using the old names, but the backward compatibility support is expected to be removed in the near future.
