| | | | | | | | This howto consists of a footnote from an email by JC to the git mailing list (<7vfyms0x4p.fsf@assigned-by-dhcp.cox.net>). Signed-off-by: Kent Engstrom <kent@lysator.liu.se> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
* update using-topic-branchesLuck, Tony2006-01-20
| | | | | | | | | Update documentation to warn users not to create noise in then Linux history by creating pointless "Auto-update from upstream" merge commits. Signed-off-by: Tony Luck <tony.luck@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
* show-branch: make the current branch and merge commits stand out.Junio C Hamano2006-01-15
| | | | | | | | | | | This changes the character used to mark the commits that is on the branch from '+' to '*' for the current branch, to make it stand out. Also we show '-' for merge commits. When you have a handful branches with relatively long diversion, it is easier to see which one is the current branch this way. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

* howto/using-topic-branches: Recommend public URL git://git.kernel.org/Junio C Hamano2005-12-19
| | | | | | | Recommending this means subsystem maintainers do not have to log-in just to resync with upstream. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
* Documentation: topic branchesJunio C Hamano2005-12-14
| | | | | | | | | | Recommend git over ssh direct to master.kernel.org, instead of going over rsync to public machines, since this is meant to be a procedure for kernel subsystem maintainers. Also fix an obvious typo. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
* Documentation: shared repository management in tutorial.Junio C Hamano2005-12-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | The branch policy script I outlined was improved and polished by Carl and posted on the list twice since then. It is a shame not to pick it up, so replace the original outline in howto/update-hook-example.txt with the latest from Carl. Also talk about setting up git-shell to allow git-push/git-fetch only SSH access to a shared repository host in the tutorial. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

| | | | | | | git-commit -v flag has been the default for quite some time, so do not mention it. Also a typofix. 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>
* 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.

* Remove git-apply-patch-script.Junio C Hamano2005-08-29
| | | | | | | | Now the rebase is rewritten to use git cherry-pick, there is no user for that ancient script. I've checked Cogito and StGIT to make sure they do not use it. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

* [PATCH] update howto/using-topic-branches.txttony.luck@intel.com2005-08-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Various updates and cleanups for my howto on using branches in GIT as a Linux subsystem maintainer. Three categories of changes: 1) Updates for new features in GIT 0.99.5 2) Changes to use "git fetch" rather than "git pull" to update local linus branch. 3) Cleanups suggested by Len Brown Signed-off-by: Tony Luck <tony.luck@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
* [PATCH] updates for Documentation/howto/using-topic-branches.txtLuck, Tony2005-08-18
| | | | | | | | | | | Small fix (use "git branch" to make branches, rather than "git checkout -b"). Optimization for trivial patches (apply to release and merge to test). Three sample scripts appended. Signed-off-by: Tony Luck <tony.luck@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
* Keep excellent tutorial for using topic branches by Tony LuckJunio C Hamano2005-08-15
| | | | | | I would eventually like to move this to become a part of the tutorial, but anyway, this was an excellent post that describes how topic branches can be used to keep track of local changes.
* [PATCH] Add some simple howtos, culled from the mailing list.Ryan Anderson2005-08-15
I think these are useful, and I think putting them in a new "howto" directory might help some users until we get to the point of splitting up the tutorial to be easier to read. Given the authorship, I think it's safe to put these in the repository. Signed-off-by: Ryan Anderson <ryan@michonline.com>
