* git remote: Separate usage strings for subcommandsTim Henigan2009-11-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | When the usage string for a subcommand must be printed, only print the information relevant to that command. This commit also removes the complete options list from the first line of the subcommand usage string. Instead, individual options are documented in the detailed description following the general usage line.

* git remote update: Fallback to remote if group does not existFinn Arne Gangstad2009-04-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously, git remote update <remote> would fail unless there was a remote group configured with the same name as the remote. git remote update will now fall back to using the remote if no matching group can be found. This enables "git remote update -p <remote>..." to fetch and prune one or more remotes, for example.

* git remote update: New option --pruneFinn Arne Gangstad2009-04-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | With the --prune (or -p) option, git remote update will also prune all the remotes that it fetches. Previously, you had to do a manual git remote prune <remote> for each of the remotes you wanted to prune, and this could be tedious with many remotes. A single command will now update a set of remotes, and remove all stale branches: git remote update -p [group] Signed-off-by: Finn Arne Gangstad <finnag@pvv.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

* Implement git remote renameMiklos Vajna2008-11-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The new rename subcommand does the followings: 1) Renames the remote.foo configuration section to remote.bar 2) Updates the remote.bar.fetch refspecs 3) Updates the branch.*.remote settings 4) Renames the tracking branches: renames the normal refs and rewrites the symrefs to point to the new refs.

* Documentation: more "git-" versus "git " changesJonathan Nieder2008-07-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | With git-commands moving out of $(bindir), it is useful to make a clearer distinction between the git subcommand 'git-whatever' and the command you type, `git whatever <options>`. 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.

* 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. After a "s/ /-/g", the unpatched and patched versions are identical. Signed-off-by: Jonathan Nieder <jrnieder@uchicago.edu> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
* remote prune: print the list of pruned branchesOlivier Marin2008-06-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | This command is really too quiet which make it unconfortable to use. Also implement a --dry-run option, in place of the original -n one, to list stale tracking branches that will be pruned, but do not actually prune them. Add a test case for --dry-run.

* Add a remote.*.mirror configuration optionPaolo Bonzini2008-04-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds a remote.*.mirror configuration option that, when set, automatically puts git-push in --mirror mode for that remote. Furthermore, the option is set automatically by `git remote add --mirror'. The code in remote.c to parse remote.*.skipdefaultupdate had a subtle problem: a comment in the code indicated that special care was needed for boolean options, but this care was not used in parsing the option. Since I was touching related code, I did this fix too.

* | Allow git-remote to update named groups of remotesTheodore Ts'o2007-02-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In response to a feature request from Shawn Pearce, this patch allows a user to update a named group of remotes by using "git remote update <group>", where the group is defined in the config file by remotes.<group>. The default if the named group is not specified is now fetched group remotes.default, instead of remote.fetch, which is what had been previously used. In addition, if remotes.default is not defined, all remotes defined in the config file will be used, as before, but there is now also possible to request that a particular repository to be skipped by default by using the boolean configuration parameter remote.<name>.skipDefaultUpdate.
