* Merge branch 'tg/grep-no-index-fallback'Junio C Hamano2016-01-20
|\ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | "git grep" by default does not fall back to its "--no-index" behaviour outside a directory under Git's control (otherwise the user may by mistake end up running a huge recursive search); with a new configuration (set in $HOME/.gitconfig--by definition this cannot be set in the config file per project), this safety can be disabled. * tg/grep-no-index-fallback: builtin/grep: add grep.fallbackToNoIndex config t7810: correct --no-index test
| * builtin/grep: add grep.fallbackToNoIndex configThomas Gummerer2016-01-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently when git grep is used outside of a git repository without the --no-index option git simply dies. For convenience, add a grep.fallbackToNoIndex configuration variable. If set to true, git grep behaves like git grep --no-index if it is run outside of a git repository. It defaults to false, preserving the current behavior.

* | Documentation: explain optional arguments betterMatthieu Moy2015-09-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Improve the documentation of commands taking optional arguments in two ways: * Documents the behavior of '-O' (for grep) and '-S' (for commands creating commits) when used without the optional argument. * Document the syntax of these options. For the second point, the behavior is documented in gitcli(7), but it is easy for users to miss, and hard for the same user to understand why e.g. "git status -u no" does not work. Document this explicitly in the documentation of each short option having an optional argument: they are the most error prone since there is no '=' sign between the option and its argument.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Recently and not so recently, we made sure that log/grep type operations use textconv filters when a userfacing diff would do the same: ef90ab6 (pickaxe: use textconv for -S counting, 2012-10-28) b1c2f57 (diff_grep: use textconv buffers for add/deleted files, 2012-10-28) 0508fe5 (combine-diff: respect textconv attributes, 2011-05-23) "git grep" currently does not use textconv filters at all, that is neither for displaying the match and context nor for the actual grepping, even when requested by --textconv. Introduce an option "--textconv" which makes git grep use any configured textconv filters for grepping and output purposes. It is off by default.

* grep: add a grep.patternType configuration settingJ Smith2012-08-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The grep.extendedRegexp configuration setting enables the -E flag on grep by default but there are no equivalents for the -G, -F and -P flags. Rather than adding an additional setting for grep.fooRegexp for current and future pattern matching options, add a grep.patternType setting that can accept appropriate values for modifying the default grep pattern matching behavior. The current values are "basic", "extended", "fixed", "perl" and "default" for setting -G, -E, -F, -P and the default behavior respectively. When grep.patternType is set to a value other than "default", the grep.extendedRegexp setting is ignored. The value of "default" restores the current default behavior, including the grep.extendedRegexp behavior.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, patterns that contain newline characters don't match anything when given to git grep. Regular grep(1) interprets patterns as lists of newline separated search strings instead. Implement this functionality by creating and inserting extra grep_pat structures for patterns consisting of multiple lines when appending to the pattern lists. For simplicity, all pattern strings are duplicated. The original pattern is truncated in place to make it contain only the first line.

* | docs: stop using asciidoc no-inline-literalJeff King2012-04-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In asciidoc 7, backticks like `foo` produced a typographic effect, but did not otherwise affect the syntax. In asciidoc 8, backticks introduce an "inline literal" inside which markup is not interpreted. To keep compatibility with existing documents, asciidoc 8 has a "no-inline-literal" attribute to keep the old behavior. We enabled this so that the documentation could be built on either version. It has been several years now, and asciidoc 7 is no longer in wide use. We can now decide whether or not we want inline literals on their own merits, which are: 1. The source is much easier to read when the literal contains punctuation. You can use `master~1` instead of `master{tilde}1`. 2. They are less error-prone. Because of point (1), we tend to make mistakes and forget the extra layer of quoting. This patch removes the no-inline-literal attribute from the Makefile and converts every use of backticks in the documentation to an inline literal (they must be cleaned up, or the example above would literally show "{tilde}" in the output). Problematic sites were found by grepping for '`.*[{\\]' and examined and fixed manually. The results were then verified by comparing the output of "html2text" on the set of generated html pages. Doing so revealed that in addition to making the source more readable, this patch fixes several formatting bugs: - HTML rendering used the ellipsis character instead of literal "..." in code examples (like "git log A...B") - some code examples used the right-arrow character instead of '->' because they failed to quote - api-config.txt did not quote tilde, and the resulting HTML contained a bogus snippet like: <tt><sub></tt> foo <tt></sub>bar</tt> which caused some parsers to choke and omit whole sections of the page. - git-commit.txt confused ``foo`` (backticks inside a literal) with ``foo'' (matched double-quotes) - mentions of `A U Thor <author@example.com>` used to erroneously auto-generate a mailto footnote for author@example.com - the description of --word-diff=plain incorrectly showed the output as "[-removed-] and {added}", not "{+added+}". - using "prime" notation like: commit `C` and its replacement `C'` confused asciidoc into thinking that everything between the first backtick and the final apostrophe were meant to be inside matched quotes - asciidoc got confused by the escaping of some of our asterisks. In particular, `credential.\*` and `credential.<url>.\*` properly escaped the asterisk in the first case, but literally passed through the backslash in the second case.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In a working tree of a git managed repository, "grep --untracked" would find the specified patterns from files in untracked files in addition to its usual behaviour of finding them in the tracked files. By default, when working with "--no-index" option, "grep" does not pay attention to .gitignore mechanism. "grep --no-index --exclude-standard" can be used to tell the command to use .gitignore and stop reporting hits from files that would be ignored. Also, when working without "--no-index", "grep" honors .gitignore mechanism, and "grep --no-exclude-standard" can be used to tell the command to include hits from files that are ignored.

Some manpages make a list of examples, like: git foo:: Run git foo. git foo -q:: Use the "-q" option. to quickly show many variants. However, they can sometimes be hard to read, because they are shown in a proportional-width font (so, for example, seeing the difference between "-- foo" and "--foo" can be difficult). This patch puts all such examples into backticks, which gives the equivalent formatting to a listing block (i.e., monospaced and without character interpretation). As a bonus, this also fixes an example in the git-push manpage, in which "git push origin :::" was accidentally considered a newly-indented list, and not a list item with "git push origin :" in it.

|/ / | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The point of these sections is generally to: 1. Give credit where it is due. 2. Give the reader an idea of where to ask questions or file bug reports. But they don't do a good job of either case. For (1), they are out of date and incomplete. A much more accurate answer can be gotten through shortlog or blame. For (2), the correct contact point is generally git@vger, and even if you wanted to cc the contact point, the out-of-date and incomplete fields mean you're likely sending to somebody useless. So let's drop the fields entirely from all manpages except git(1) itself. We already point people to the mailing list for bug reports there, and we can update the Authors section to give credit to the major contributors and point to shortlog and blame for more information. Each page has a "This is part of git" footer, so people can follow that to the main git manpage.

The argument is a colorbool: "always", "never", or "auto". If no argument is given, "always" is used; --no-color is an alias for --color=never. This makes the command-line interface consistent with other GNU tools, such as `ls' and `grep', and with the git-config color options. Note that, without an argument, --color and --no-color work exactly as before. To implement this, two internal changes were made: 1. Allow the first argument of git_config_colorbool() to be NULL, in which case it returns -1 if the argument isn't "always", "never", or "auto". 2. Add OPT_COLOR_FLAG(), OPT__COLOR(), and parse_opt_color_flag_cb() to the option parsing library. The callback uses git_config_colorbool(), so color.h is now a dependency of parse-options.c.

| * grep documentation: clarify what files matchMark Lodato2010-02-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Clarify that git-grep(1) searches only tracked files, and that each <pathspec> is a pathspec, as in any other ordinary git commands. Add an example to show a simple use case for searching all .c and .h files in the current directory and below.

* | Documentation: spell 'git cmd' without dash throughoutThomas Rast2010-01-10
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The documentation was quite inconsistent when spelling 'git cmd' if it only refers to the program, not to some specific invocation syntax: both 'git-cmd' and 'git cmd' spellings exist. The current trend goes towards dashless forms, and there is precedent in 647ac70 (git-svn.txt: stop using dash-form of commands., 2009-07-07) to actively eliminate the dashed variants. Replace 'git-cmd' with 'git cmd' throughout, except where git-shell, git-cvsserver, git-upload-pack, git-receive-pack, and git-upload-archive are concerned, because those really live in the $PATH.
* grep: Add --max-depth option.Michał Kiedrowicz2009-07-22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It is useful to grep directories non-recursively, e.g. when one wants to look for all files in the toplevel directory, but not in any subdirectory, or in Documentation/, but not in Documentation/technical/. This patch adds support for --max-depth <depth> option to git-grep. If it is given, git-grep descends at most <depth> levels of directories below paths specified on the command line. Note that if path specified on command line contains wildcards, this option makes no sense, e.g. $ git grep -l --max-depth 0 GNU -- 'contrib/*' (note the quotes) will search all files in contrib/, even in subdirectories, because '*' matches all files. Documentation updates, bash-completion and simple test cases are also provided. Signed-off-by: Michał Kiedrowicz <michal.kiedrowicz@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
* grep -p: support user defined regular expressionsRené Scharfe2009-07-01
| | | | | | | | Respect the userdiff attributes and config settings when looking for lines with function definitions in git grep -p. Signed-off-by: Rene Scharfe <rene.scharfe@lsrfire.ath.cx> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
* grep: add option -p/--show-functionRené Scharfe2009-07-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | The new option -p instructs git grep to print the previous function definition as a context line, similar to diff -p. Such context lines are marked with an equal sign instead of a dash. This option complements the existing context options -A, -B, -C. Function definitions are detected using the same heuristic that diff uses. User defined regular expressions are not supported, yet.
