* 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>
* don't mention index refreshing side effect in git-status docsJeff King2007-12-09
| | | | | | | | | The tip about speeding up subsequent operations is now obsolete; since aecbf914, git-diff now squelches empty diffs and performs an automatic refresh. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
* git-status: documentation improvementsJeff King2007-12-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch is the result of reading over git-status with an editorial eye: - fix a few typo/grammatical errors - mention untracked output - present output types in the order they appear from the command Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
* add status.relativePaths config variableJeff King2007-12-08
| | | | | | | | | The output of git-status was recently changed to output relative paths. Setting this variable to false restores the old behavior for any old-timers that prefer it. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
* git-status documentation: mention subdirectory behaviourJunio C Hamano2007-12-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Consistently with all other diff oriented commands, we have given paths relative to the work tree root in git-status output for a long time. This documents the recent behaviour change, as people's eyes (and worse yet, scripts, although scripts should not parse "git status" output) may depend on the old behaviour. In the longer run, giving a --full-name option to git-diff Porcelain similar to what ls-files has, and change the default for git-diff Porcelain to show relative paths may be a good thing to do, in order to hide the oddballness of this git-status behaviour, but that would have a rather large impact to established expectation by existing users.

* 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.

* Create a new manpage for the gitignore format, and reference it elsewhereJosh Triplett2007-06-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Only git-ls-files(1) describes the gitignore format in detail, and it does so with reference to git-ls-files options. Most users don't use the plumbing command git-ls-files directly, and shouldn't have to look in its manpage for information on the gitignore format. Create a new manpage gitignore(5) (Documentation/gitignore.txt), and factor out the gitignore documentation into that file, changing it to refer to .gitignore and $GIT_DIR/info/exclude as used by porcelain commands. Reference gitignore(5) from other relevant manpages and documentation. Remove now-redundant information on exclude patterns from git-ls-files(1), leaving only information on how git-ls-files options specify exclude patterns and what precedence they have.

* git-status: respect core.excludesFileJohannes Schindelin2007-05-21

* Convert update-index references in docs to add.Shawn O. Pearce2007-02-17
| | | | | | | | | | Since `git add` is the approved porcelain for an end-user to invoke when they want to manipulate the index, porcelain documentation should steer the user to this command rather than the pure plumbing update-index.

* 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.
