* Retire git-clone-packJunio C Hamano2006-06-21
| | | | | | | | The program is not used by git-clone since git-fetch-pack was extended to allow its caller do what git-clone-pack alone did, and git-clone was updated to use it. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

* Documentation: revise top of git man pageJ. Bruce Fields2006-04-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I'm afraid I'll be accused of trying to suck all the jokes and the personality out of the git documentation. I'm not! Really! That said, "man git" is one of the first things a new user is likely try, and it seems a little cruel to start off with a somewhat obscure joke about the architecture of git. So instead I'm trying for a relatively straightforward description of what git does, and what features distinguish it from other systems, together with immediate links to introductory documentation. I also did some minor reorganization in an attempt to clarify the classification of commands. And revised a bit for conciseness (as is obvious from the diffstat--hopefully I didn't cut anything important). Signed-off-by: J.

* git-rerere: reuse recorded resolve.Junio C Hamano2006-02-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In a workflow that employs relatively long lived topic branches, the developer sometimes needs to resolve the same conflict over and over again until the topic branches are done (either merged to the "release" branch, or sent out and accepted upstream). This commit introduces a new command, "git rerere", to help this process by recording the conflicted automerge results and corresponding hand-resolve results on the initial manual merge, and later by noticing the same conflicted automerge and applying the previously recorded hand resolution using three-way merge.

* Remove "octopus".Junio C Hamano2005-12-19
| | | | | | | | | We still advertise "git resolve" as a standalone command, but never "git octopus", so nobody should be using it and it is safe to retire it. The functionality is still available as a strategy backend. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
* Documentation: not learning core git commands.Junio C Hamano2005-12-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The initial section of tutorial was too heavy on internal workings for the first-time readers, so rewrite the introductory section of git(7) to start with "not learning core git commands" section and refer them to README to grasp the basic concepts, then Everyday to give overview with task/role oriented examples for minimum set of commands, and finally the tutorial. Also add to existing note in the tutorial that many too technical descriptions can be skipped by a casual reader. I initially started to review the tutorial, with the objective of ripping out the detailed technical information altogether, but I found that the level of details in the initial couple of sections that talk about refs and the object database in a hands-on fashion was about rigth, and left all of them there. I feel that reading about fsck-index and repack is too abstract without being aware of these directories and files. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

* git --help COMMAND brings up the git-COMMAND man-page.Andreas Ericsson2005-11-15

| | | | | | | | | | | | The program 'git' now has --exec-path which needs explaining.

* Rename lost+found to lost-found.Junio C Hamano2005-11-13
| | | | | | | | Because we use "lost-found" as the directory name to hold dangling object names, it is confusing to call the command git-lost+found, although it makes sense and is even cute ;-). Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

* Retire rev-tree.Junio C Hamano2005-09-22
| | | | | | | | Some old scripts might still use git-rev-tree, but it really is clearly inferior in every way to git-rev-list that such scripts should be fixed anyway. Fixing them should be pretty easy. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
* Retire git-export.Junio C Hamano2005-09-22
| | | | | | | | | | | | git-export was done as a concept example on how easy it is to export the git data to something else. It's much less powerful than any number of trivial one-liner scripts now, and real exporters would not ever use git-export. It's obviously much less powerful than "git-whatchanged", or just about any combination of git-rev-list + git-diff-tree. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

* 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.
