| * merge: merge with the default upstream branch without argumentJunio C Hamano2011-03-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | "git merge" without specifying any commit is a no-op by default. A new option merge.defaultupstream can be set to true to cause such an invocation of the command to merge the upstream branches configured for the current branch by using their last observed values stored in their remote tracking branches.

* | doc: drop author/documentation sections from most pagesJeff King2011-03-11
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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 For (1), they are out of date and incomplete.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 For (2), the correct contact point is generally git@vger, and even if you wanted to cc the contact point, the out-of-date and incomplete fields mean you're likely sending to somebody useless.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.

| * Provide 'git merge --abort' as a synonym to 'git reset --merge'Johan Herland2010-11-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Teach 'git merge' the --abort option, which verifies the existence of MERGE_HEAD and then invokes 'git reset --merge' to abort the current in-progress merge and attempt to reconstruct the pre-merge state. The reason for adding this option is to provide a user interface for aborting an in-progress merge that is consistent with the interface for aborting a rebase ('git rebase --abort'), aborting the application of a patch series ('git am --abort'), and aborting an in-progress notes merge ('git notes merge --abort'). The patch includes documentation and testcases that explain and verify the various scenarios in which 'git merge --abort' can run. The testcases also document the cases in which 'git merge --abort' is unable to correctly restore the pre-merge state (look for the '###' comments towards the bottom of t/t7609-merge-abort.sh).

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | commit 57bddb11 (Documentation/git-merge: reword references to "remote" and "pull", 2010-01-07) fixed the manual to drop the assumption that the other branch being merged is from a remote repository. Unfortunately, in a few places, to do so it introduced the antecedentless phrase "their versions". Worse, in passages like the following, 'they' is playing two roles. | highlighting changes from both the HEAD and their versions. | | * Look at the diffs on their own. 'git log --merge -p <path>' Using HEAD and MERGE_HEAD nicely assigns terminology to "our" and "their" sides.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The user most likely does not care about the exact order of operations because he cannot see it happening anyway. Instead, try to explain what it means to merge two commits into a single tree. While at it: - Change the heading to TRUE MERGE. The entire manual page is about how merges work. - Document MERGE_HEAD. It is a useful feature, since it makes the parents of the intended merge commit easier to refer to. - Do not assume commits named on the 'git merge' command line come from another repository. For simplicity, the discussion of conflicts still does assume that there is only one and it is a branch head. - Do not start list items with `code`. Otherwise, a toolchain bug produces a line break in the generated nroff, resulting in odd extra space.

| * Documentation: emphasize when git merge terminates earlyJonathan Nieder2010-01-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A merge-based operation in git can fail in two ways: one that stops before touching anything, or one that goes ahead and results in conflicts. As the 'git merge' manual explains: | A merge is always between the current `HEAD` and one or more | commits (usually, branch head or tag), and the index file must | match the tree of `HEAD` commit (i.e. the contents of the last commit) | when it starts out. Unfortunately, the placement of this sentence makes it easy to skip over, and its formulation leaves the important point, that any other attempted merge will be gracefully aborted, unspoken. So give this point its own section and expand upon it. Probably this could be simplified somewhat: after all, a change registered in the index is just a special kind of local uncommited change, so the second added paragraph is only a special case of the first. It seemed more helpful to be explicit here. Inspired by <http://gitster.livejournal.com/25801.html>.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The 'merge' manual suggests 'reset' to cancel a merge at the end of the Merge Strategies list.

| * 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.

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.

* Documentation: be consistent about "git-" versus "git "Jonathan Nieder2008-07-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since the git-* commands are not installed in $(bindir), using "git-command <parameters>" in examples in the documentation is not a good idea. On the other hand, it is nice to be able to refer to each command using one hyphenated word. (There is no escaping it, anyway: man page names cannot have spaces in them.) This patch retains the dash in naming an operation, command, program, process, or action. Complete command lines that can be entered at a shell (i.e., without options omitted) are made to use the dashless form. The changes consist only of replacing some spaces with hyphens and vice versa.

* Documentation: rename gitlink macro to linkgitDan McGee2008-01-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Between AsciiDoc 8.2.2 and 8.2.3, the following change was made to the stock Asciidoc configuration: @@ -149,7 +153,10 @@ # Inline macros. # Backslash prefix required for escape processing. # (?s) re flag for line spanning. -(?su)[\\]?(?P<name>\w(\w|-)*?):(?P<target>\S*?)(\[(?P<attrlist>.*?)\])= + +# Explicit so they can be nested. +(?su)[\\]?(?P<name>(http|https|ftp|file|mailto|callto|image|link)):(?P<target>\S*?)(\[(?P<attrlist>.*?)\])= + # Anchor: [[[id]]]. Bibliographic anchor. (?su)[\\]?\[\[\[(?P<attrlist>[\w][\w-]*?)\]\]\]=anchor3 # Anchor: [[id,xreflabel]] This default regex now matches explicit values, and unfortunately in this case gitlink was being matched by just 'link', causing the wrong inline macro template to be applied. By renaming the macro, we can avoid being matched by the wrong regex. Signed-off-by: Dan McGee <dpmcgee@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
