* builtin-rm: Add a --force flagPieter de Bie2008-08-08
| | | | | | | | This adds a --force flag to git-rm, making it somewhat easier for subversion people to switch. Signed-off-by: Pieter de Bie <pdebie@ai.rug.nl> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
* manpages: italicize git command names (which were in teletype font)Jonathan Nieder2008-07-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The names of git commands are not meant to be entered at the commandline; they are just names. 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 formatting and cleanupJonathan Nieder2008-07-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | Following what appears to be the predominant style, format names of commands and commandlines both as `teletype text`. While we're at it, add articles ("a" and "the") in some places, italicize the name of the command in the manual page synopsis line, and add a comma or two where it seems appropriate.

* 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>
* Docs: Use "-l::\n--long\n" format in OPTIONS sectionsStephan Beyer2008-06-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The OPTIONS section of a documentation file contains a list of the options a git command accepts. Currently there are several variants to describe the case that different options (almost) do the same in the OPTIONS section. Some are: -f, --foo:: -f|--foo:: -f | --foo:: But AsciiDoc has the special form: -f:: --foo:: This patch applies this form to the documentation of the whole git suite, and removes useless em-dash prevention, so \--foo becomes --foo.

* documentation: move git(7) to git(1)Christian Couder2008-06-06
| | | | | | | | As the "git" man page describes the "git" command at the end-user level, it seems better to move it to man section 1. Signed-off-by: Christian Couder <chriscool@tuxfamily.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

* 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]]].

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>

* More permissive "git-rm --cached" behavior without -f.Matthieu Moy2007-07-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In the previous behavior, "git-rm --cached" (without -f) had the same restriction as "git-rm". This forced the user to use the -f flag in situations which weren't actually dangerous, like: $ git add foo # oops, I didn't want this $ git rm --cached foo # back to initial situation Previously, the index had to match the file *and* the HEAD. With --cached, the index must now match the file *or* the HEAD. The behavior without --cached is unchanged, but provides better error messages.

* War on whitespaceJunio C Hamano2007-06-07
| | | | | | | | | This uses "git-apply --whitespace=strip" to fix whitespace errors that have crept in to our source files over time. There are a few files that need to have trailing whitespaces (most notably, test vectors). The results still passes the test, and build result in Documentation/ area is unchanged.

* documentation: add 'see also' sections to git-rm and git-addJeff Muizelaar2006-03-05

* Add new git-rm command with documentationCarl Worth2006-02-22
This adds a git-rm command which provides convenience similar to git-add, (and a bit more since it takes care of the rm as well if given -f). Like git-add, git-rm expands the given path names through git-ls-files. This means it only acts on files listed in the index. And it does act recursively on directories by default, (no -r needed as in the case of rm itself). When it recurses, it does not remove empty directories that are left behind.
